Tie pin and Adidas trainers for me.  I haven't worn a tie in 10 years though so am unsure if I should have included the tie pin.

I have just realised that since I was 14 I have always had at least one pair of Adidas Sambas.

Other signs of "being common" are

• Buying a car using PCP finance
• Having way too much jewellery on show
• Applauding when the plane lands
• Wearing leisurewear but never doing any exercise
• Reading The Sun or Daily Record and believe everything that is written is the gospel truth
• Not voting, because "What's the point"

When I went to Saint Helena if the plane could not land then it would have had to divert to Ascension Island 700 miles away.  The next attempt would have had to wait until the following day.  Under the circumstances I think applauding when the plane landed was perfectly reasonable.  Also there are only 6 or 7 pilots qualified to fly the route.

Common as muck

Etiquette is made up shite, and William Hanson is a fraud who’s made a living out of telling people that disliking the peasants is actually justified.

2 - Liquid soap

3 - Eating on the street

11 - Zoopla and Rightmove (8 years ago when I moved if that counts?)

14 - Trainers, particularly Adidas (Never adidas. 2 pairs currently, one from ASDA)

 

Am I common? Well, common enough that I couldn't think of anything that would count as an answer for the "Posh" thread. I do like to think I am a higher class than one of my neighbours but that's because she's a sketty cow not because I'm posh.

As for Mr Hansen, his list is better describing the nouveau riche he sees as invading his ski slopes and golf resorts - things middleclass would do with money if they wanted to pretend to be posh on their instagrams. He wouldn't know a common person if he was taken to a supermarket and told "pretend you got no money"

There's nothing acceptable about that face

Tbf if you're going to have a wall mounted television, it has to be a decent size. Doesnt have to be a home cinema but too far in the opposite direction and it'll look a bit silly

Oi, that the poshest thing you've ever done thread, so everybody should have something. If that's eat a KitKat Chunky then so be it.

Not sure if this has been mentioned because I'm not trawling through the thread but his husband's name is Mikey Worrall (according to wiki).

Your husband is far more common than wearing Adidas ya f**king bellend.

[Cosmic Joe]

That list illustrates just how out of touch he is.

It would blow his mind if he found out that some of us don't own a house, travel by bus, call our evening meal tea etc

I was guilty of eating in the street this morning,  however it was a pain au chocolat, so I think one cancels the other out.

Probably just a plain croissant with a Mars bar in the middle. Pretending to be posh.

2/16 for me.

I've been concerned for some time at the preponderance of large televisions in the UK over the last decade or so. There comes a point where it's too big and your living room looks silly. This is common as f**k and I judge it every time I see it. These buffoons go on as if it greatly enhances the viewing experience, but in my experience this is f**king nonsense.

I've long considered owning a large television to be gauche and a mounted television barbaric.

Have some self respect, people.
