This is so boring. A previous article of the same kind criticized "Fuzzy wuzzy was a Bear" because, I guess because Blacks have curly hair.

Can't you see that saying "...catch a tiger by the toe" is deliberately avoiding using the N word, making it a thoughtful and intentional modification of the counting rhyme to make it non-racist? I imagine you could make a story like this about anything, if you are over-sensitive enough.
