So, do you feel people are becoming less oblivious to common sense? Or is there such a thing anymore? Debate.
 
What you consider common sense might not be common sense to another person.

Things like flushing a toilet in a public place, not letting children run around like animals in a restaurant, washing your hands, etc.. I really think some things are common sense, yet I see many examples where people lack this capability.
 
An internal sense, formerly believed to be the sense by which information from the other five senses is understood and interpreted. Something that every human in a certain society should agree about.
 
Common sense is an illusion of one's views on obviously accepted norms.

There is no common sense, only moral beliefs.
 
Then using that logic, do you believe that these moral beliefs are changing for the worst?
 
There's a level that society brings.

If your moral views fall below that value then, yes.
 
Don't make me run circles. I answered your question.

This picture would be funny if it wasn't the truth. lol



I think stupidity is all the rage these days as common sense is long since dead.
 
Haha, that above image sums it up fairly well.



Common sense is lacking in a lot of the troll societies/my high school.

Common sense is definitely disappearing, or else people just aren't using it. There was something in the news about a woman picking up her baby and using it to attack her husband. How much common sense does it take to think Oh, this is my baby. I probably shouldn't swing it around like a baseball bat and use it to beat my husband. either people are getting stupid, or they're just plain lazy.
