    Not the way I learned it. We weren’t politically correct back in the early ’50’s.

    True, but that particular rhyme is considered terribly unkind these days, unless one is, in fact, a tiger.

    Me either – that’s why I couldn’t get it. (Nothing to do with being intellectually challenged or anything like that)

    I think that the recent “mauling” in the zoo was just an reversal and variation of the implied nursery rhyme:

    Catch a human by the toe,
    If he hollers chew some mo’e.
    (of course the word “human” can be changed to " moron" )
