Get the Common sense would dictate such knowledge mug.Equivalent to the bodies autonomic system, controlling multiple human instincts that are essential to survival such as empathy, communication skills, manners, respect, feelings vs opinions distinction, the pick your battles instinct, and a common desire to support friends and family unconditionally.
1)When one lacks common sense one becomes driven by self serving interests rather then worry about others resulting in a lack of human connection and in time, humanity itself.

Get the teen common sense mug.(phrase / life observation / savage truth)
A brutally honest way to say that just because something seems obvious, most people will still find a way to mess it up. Perfect for moments when humanity disappoints you, usually in public or online.
Used when:
Someone does something completely avoidable or facepalm-worthy.
You realize society collectively skipped the “how to adult” manual.
You want to sound smart while judging idiots.
Meaning: Humans often act in ways that defy logic, and that’s on them.
Synonyms: “Apparently, this is optional,” “Logic is rare,” “Humanity, why?”

Get the Common sense isn't so common mug.Widespread, socially acceptable lies. It is used mainly by older people to insult people they disagree with.
"Too many illegal immigrants? Deport them all. Too many gang problems? Go buy a gun and shoot at them. Bad economy? Just cut the food stamp and all those welfare bulls***. That's just common sense."
"Climate changes all the time. I don't know why common sense is no longer common anymore."
