to find threads about what is common - common?

[tatt]

couldn't resist

But seriously - isn't there something terribly insecure about wanting to label other people in a derogatory fashion?

arent derogatory threads...about threads distastefula nyway?

and....

isn't a derogatory thread ...about a derogatory thread - just as insecure about wanting to lable someone in a derogatory fashion

Gosh, i must be frightfully 'common', Sat on my black leather sofa, watching 42" LCD. With a large fridge. Also 4x4 sat on the drive!!! Just running to the hills before anyone finds out!!!

My mum is a self-confessed snob and describes various things as common. It changes from week to week.
She has the wit to be funny about it, though.

I wanted to post on the Guilty Secrets thread about my passion for Spar own-brand crisps, but it turned into a sex talk. Can I come and be common with my Burger Bites, please?

it's 'trailer trash' in American

custardo - I need at least 3 more drinks to get my head round that one.

Don't think so, Kerry. Don't you still have trailer trash instead of chav - or is everyone too PC these days?

oh oh that is dp's favourite way of winding ME up - i usually do get a bit wound up.

this thread has given me the confidence to say to him, actually mate, YOU'RE the common one

i did know this already deep down. it is so true that to call something common is sooo common. anyway cool people don't care about common

Loving that 'aspirational' fridges have made their way onto another thread!

oh oh OH also maybe thinking trailer trash / chav chic is cool - is actually uncool? it's very patronising anyway.

Whats common anyway? shopping at asda? primark? eating mcdonalds and greggs ..who gives a fuck really you are who you are ..we can all pretend to be Hyacinth Bucket

well - posting at the same time, I'm not that cross tonight

Butterfly - did people really say "non-u"? that's so funny

i am going to start saying that. posh spice is so non-u.

(Realising this makes me non-u... but as i don't even know what it means, i'm cool with that)

Butterfly - you must be at leat 110! Is it you or your "companion" typing?

Ps - Are you the one married to the nazi?

IMO the only thing that is 'common' about people is the way they judge others, and then behave accordingly, by what they wear, eat, drive etc. I might not like certain things but I'm not arrogant enough to think that my likes and dislikes make me uncommon.

I do dislike the need so many people seem to have of following the herd in matters of dress etc. But that is confined to the so-called common is it?

ha ha this thread is making me laugh, since according to my SIL i'm 'common' oh and 'loud'! although the only one who seemed common and loud as she screamed it round the pub was her. (snooty for no reason whatsoever bitch)

I find they only do it to make themselves feel better. This is only because their taste is really not that dissimilar from those they call common/chavs.
My Aunt's a terrible snob and is very derisive about MIL's taste in decor but her house is decorated almost the same as MIL's. She just can't see it
