Common Law Relationship

This is when two individuals are in a relationship without a title by choice. Both people are clearly together but there is no official status. Couple must have been "together" seriously for over six months to be considered. This situation may be caused because one is afraid to admit their feelings, or one does not truely want to be in the relationship, or they just don't worry about the status. Regardless of how they perceive it, the world sees them as a couple, or common law dating.

Ben: That's not Collin's girlfriend ya know.
Ty: What? They have been "together" forever!
Ben: Oh I know, but one of them, I wont name names, doesn't want to be "dating"
Ty: But.. They are only seeing each other?
Ben: Yes, so they are in a common law relationship.

common denominator

(n.) A factor that appears the same in different situations. Derived from mathematics where the numerator is divded by the lowest common denominator in fraction questions where it must be discovered which fraction is bigger by making the denominator the same.

Your face is the common denominator in three robberies at your place of work, which implies you have a connection to these robberies, although we could be wrong.

Tommy: "But she's blonde. Everyone knows blondes are ridiculously stupid. It's just common sense."

John: "What?"

commonwhore

A shit-box of a car made by Holden and driven by Australian teenagers. It usually has crappy cheap mags, and a homemade spoiler.

So named because they are cheap and unattractive, and will most probably die soon.

Commonwhore drivers commonly think that their car is the fastest thing on the road, when actually it would roll over and die if it even tried to take on a Ford.

See bogan

Aye, Steve! Lets take my commonwhore and do bog laps round Freo with my shitty stereo up so loud it's distorting
