Default who's getting snow?

n. 1. Literally, an aunt who has never been married. Figuratively, it
is a term used as the prototype of a person who is broadly naive and not
wise in worldly ways.

"""not wise in worldly ways""" ....... now I ask you ;-) ........ """a
Condom is an abbreviation for where people live"""

It said Maiden Aunt, not Virgin Aunt


True, it is just my mind that puts 2 and 2 together
and makes 5!

Just out of interest, I looked up maiden on the
Mirriam-webster dictionary site:

Definition of MAIDEN

1: an unmarried girl or woman : maid
2: a former Scottish beheading device resembling the
guillotine
3: a horse that has never won a race

I'm glad I don't have a maiden aunt like no 2:
