common fixture

One that is regularly found, and likely not to be removed.

He’s a common fixture at the pub, don’t make eye contact or he’ll start telling you longwinded stories.

That character on the the show is a common fixture, I don’t think they’ll kill her off.

Commoner lighter

You take a lighter you own (preferably with the least amount of fluid) and write "commoner lighter" on it. This is for the bums who always steal your lighters when they 'borrow' it and never return it. Problem solved.

"Dude can I use your lighter"

"Nah fam you stole it last time. Here, take the commoner lighter."

half not in common

When you partially match with someone on a topic.

Common Prank

A saying used to make light of someone else's bleak situation.

Person 1: "He walked into Saran wrap, and was then shot in the chest"
Person 2: "It's a common prank"
Or
Person 1: "My uncle touched me"
Person 2: "It's a common prank"

Common Sense

Basic logic that the majority of this planet lacks. (Ex, most booksmart people)

Wow, this is the smartest kid in my class. He can't even sharpen a pencil. He really lacks common sense. How will he even survive in the real world.
