Get the Common Sense mug.Related Words
A person from, or resident of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Origins:
Massachusetts does not lend itself well to the typical suffixes (-ian, -er, etc.) attached to the name of a place to refer to someone who is from that place (perhaps because the name is not of English origin.) Thus, commonwealther is used as a reference to the fact that Massachusetts is officially designated as a Commonwealth instead of a State (although there is no legal distinction between a “state” and a “commonwealth” in the United States.).
There are three other "states" in the US that designate themselves as Commonwealths (Kentucky, Pennsylvania and Virginia.) However, the usual suffixes are applied to them (Kentuckian, Pennsylvanian and Virginian) without issue, and so a new word is not needed to describe a resident of one of those states.

Get the common sense mug.They are unknown friends on social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, etc. These are the people who just adds anyone they see on social networking sites. They, most of the time, sneak into photos, videos, etc. for their amusement. They also steals pictures and posts them on forums so that they, with their fellow commensals, have something to laugh at or even jacked at.
