Yes, it sure does, and I know a lot of people that lack it.

Definitely not. Common sense is a myth.

common sense is the feeling that people are assumed to have which tells them when something isn't safe or you shouldn't do something.

given the # of idiots pressing lawsuits because of their own stupidity, I'd ahve to say that common sense does exist; it's just not as common as the name suggests.

It does exist, it's just not as common as it should be.

I think common sense does exist but a lot of people, don't have it/ don't use it much.

Maybe this topic'd be ever so slightly more interesting if you argued as to why common sense does(n't) exist rather than just stating an opinion...

Well I don't see how you can say that the gaining of basic knowledge doesn't exist in a person without some sort of disability. The universal understanding that you shouldn't bath in fire surely exists. Most probably have it but somtimes people are able to ignore it easily or it's slower to come to us. It differs on experience, too, depending on how wide your definition extends.

Everybody is prone to those moments when our common sense totally goes out of the window and we do or say completely stupid things. That's part of being human. But yes, common sense exists but I don't think anyone can claim to have it all the time and be totally incapable of doing stupid things. It comes and goes.

common sense exist however, the more education you get the less common sense you get.

why do you think you feel dumber after every year of school?
