A joke that relies on your regional accent to work.

My Aunt was trying to get my brother into an amusement ride free by saying he was under 5. I not being onto scams like this yet, kept saying that No, he’s 6. Kids say the darndest things, lol.

Aunts aren’t what they used to be. When I was a child, everyone had at least one aunt who was reputed to be ‘wild’, at least to the extent of wearing flashy garments and dyeing her hair. The more enterprising had a full set: the one who was a fire-eating radical, the one who was an intellectual or and artist and kept a parrot, the one who married way rich and lived on a ranch in Montana, the one who conversed with people in flying saucers. But that was in the old days. I guess aunts have declined like everything else.

If Aunt Man had been bitten by one of Bertie Wooster’s army of aunts, he’d be a holy terror.

I drive the exact same make and model car as Aunt-Man – same colour, same wheels….disturbing….

Nobody knows James Jansen and Aunt Man are one and the same because they pronounce “gif” differently.

Those kids are only about 10 at most, unless Aunt-man is 7 foot tall
