Breasts/crude slang?

[edit]

Is that what this is about?--Tapestry of alien (talk) 13:49, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's where it comes from. See this book. 4Russeteer (talk) 14:17, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

After my Antarctic Cruise, Dec 2003-Jan 2004 I wrote to the British Antarctic Survey office in Port Stanley asking if there were any photo's of "Una" (as the name of the BAS secretary for whom the geographic feature was named sounded from the cruise ship guides mouths).

I received the following reply, indicating the name of these peaks is incorrectly reported in wikipedia

Thank you for your message. I'm afraid that Oonagh no longer works for BAS and I have been unable to find a photo of her.

Yours sincerely

Will also say I was a bit shocked that a less crude euphemism was not used in the name of these peaks ("oonagh's pair" perhaps?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.66.252.204 (talk) 01:40, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Americans. Typical. ;-) Check Squaw's Tit to tit-illate your tendencies towards vicarious offence-giving. :-P --Florian Blaschke (talk) 19:04, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Since when do Americans name mountains in Canada? =P 131.151.79.241 (talk) 17:38, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
