Thatababy by Paul Trap for November 15, 2015

Better not let go if it hollers then. (Must be Shere Khan instead of Hobbes or Tigger.)

“My mother said to pick the very best one, and you are IT,” is how I learned that rhyme to end. Of course, that doesn’t solve the issue of the tiger, now does it.

I grew up with the ending being: Eenie, Meenie, Miney Moe! The end.

You’re lucky you weren’t around when kids were singing the ORIGINAL chant, kid.

Funny!

Who knows?

“Moe’s Tavern. Moe speaking.”“Yeah. I need to talk to Al. Last name Coholic.”“Phone call for Al. Al Coholic!”

Yeah – the original words weren’t good. I remember…

Um…“Hang in there, [Thata] baby”?

I grew up in a small town in Maine in the 50s, so I literally didn’t know what the word meant. I figured it was probably some kind of lizard or tree frog, so it would be easy to catch by the toe.

We said: Catch a tiger by the toe, if he hollers make him pay $50 every day. My mamma told me to throw a dish rag over my shoulder and to pick the very best one right here, (and your not it)

It was an inappropriate word before they changed it to tiger. Nuff said?RAWR!

i laughed so hard on this one

This (with ennie meenie miney moe again at the end) was the version in my Rhymes books, but at school everyone said "catch a tiger by the toe/ if he hollers making him pay/ 50 dollars every day. " with the optional “my mother told me to pick the very best one and you are (not) it” at the end

How about playing it with hobbes?

I won’t let my bro watch the simpsons. it has blood, gore, and cussing.
