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.

1) Jimmy spent eight years at his desk getting his advanced degree in mechanical engineering. He was hired happily straight out of college making $105,000 a year, but ultimately failed at even the simplest of automotive tasks, since he lacks the common sense to so much as change his oil.
It also took him 45 minutes to find the entrance on the hooker he hired on a lonely Friday night.

It was announced today that Common Sense passed away last night in her sleep. Common Sense has been bed-ridden for the past several years as a result of severe atrophy from lack of use. Common sense was preceeded in death by her mother, personal accountability, and father, integrity.

Knowledge that is "sensed" to be true by everyone, but results in most believing the world is flat. Tends to be an overused excuse by pseudo-intellectuals to prove their own vapid points.
