Common sense would dictate such knowledge

A more intelligent way of saying duh
Person 1: Spinning makes me dizzy.
Person 2: Well duh!

Person 1: *smacks*

Different situation

Person 1: Spinning makes me dizzy
Person 3: Common sense would dictate such knowledge

Common Senseless

1. Acting senselessly in situations that typically require only a small dosage of practical knowledge.

2. Lacking common sense, but typically still intelligent.
Common senseless moments are often accompanied by either personal injury or a financial blow, and they almost always involve extreme mortification.

Ex. The most common senseless moment I’ve ever had was when I went to that bathroom in the woods and wiped with a poison ivy leaf. Ouch.

Ex. How is it possible that my sister goes to Harvard and yet she still manages to run out of gas at least once a week. She is so common senseless!

common class

noun

refers to all within the social group which are not members of the economic and political elite or the aristocracy. Also in contrast to the term used by the left (working class) which effectively refers specifically to those within the social group who are manual factory or industrial workers. Common class however, makes reference to both the employed and unemployed members of the social group as well.
Mike who is a Doctor, Charles who is a manual labourer, Tracy who is a Teacher, John who is homeless and unemployed are all members of the common class.

common sense

A mythical force that is supposed to bestow knowledge of the obvious. Unfortunately, humankind has proven, time and time again, that there is no such thing as common sense.
The People v. Common Sense:

Exhibit A-
Common sense should tell people that coffee is a hot drink, and that when spilling it, one should expect it to be hot. Common sense should also tell people that eating fatty foods makes you fat. Still, look at the recent pathetic excuses for "lawsuits" against some fast-food restaurants.

Exhibit B-
Common sense should tell people - even children - that TV shows such as "Power Rangers" are not reality. Two eleven-year-old boys, however, tried to re-enact a scene from the above-mentioned show by burying an eight-year-old boy alive in the ground, thinking he would grow back out. Duuuuh...I don't think it worked...oops!

Exhibit C-
Common sense should tell the Bush administration to take money from people who actually HAVE MONEY TO GIVE, but instead they choose to take it from people who do not have it.

I rest my case.
