highest common points

In a sport, especially basketball, where the winning team is determined by the highest common points amongst the players. Traditionally the team with the highest total points wins the game. However, with highest common points each and every player or position has to score a point to count towards the total score. The purpose being that every member makes sure that everyone gets a chance to score so that no single player hogs all the points.

Player A score 7 points, Player B scores 2 points, and Player C score 10 points. So the total highest common points for the team is 2 points. Player A and C should wait give more chances to Player B, and Player B should try more on his/her own to score more points for the team to win with the most highest common points.

Use common sense

A way more polite way to say: "hey dumbass, read the fuck up." but of course those be some no-no words. So the former, more professional way is used.

Pete kindly, as much as possible, told Joel to use common sense, instead of unkindly saying: "holy fucking christ, read a book, you moron."

Dutch common sense

Thinking you can handle any crisis, just because you're good at building dikes.

Translates to "Hollandse nuchterheid."

"Jan, don't worry, just use your Dutch common sense instead of a face-mask."

Common

Shorthand for "Common Law Wife" or "Common Law Husband"

My second common was a total bitch. She drove me into bankruptcy dragging me into family court over and over again before disappearing with my kid.
