We've actually been misunderstanding the phrase this whole time. It's not "common sense" and referring to things everyone should know; it's actually "common cents" and is about those take-a-penny-leave-a-penny things. As in "when you're just a little short, use some common cents." 😌

The origin of the term "common sense" is in the works of Aristotle.
Right, I'm sure Aristotle knew a lot about take-a-penny-leave-a-penny and cents... Unless you're just memeing, in which case ignore me
