Back to basics

Baa baa black sheep have you any guns.
Yes Sir, Yes Sir.
Three bags full.
One for the master, one for the slave
and one for the children to be trained.

I really always thought it was "Baba" black sheep but now I know my kindergarten teacher was illiterate or at the very least bad at their job for not doing the sheep voice and saying "Baa Baa."

It also turns out that London Bridges has many more sections than just the first part I know.

London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down,
how much for a shag,
my fair Lady.

I guess they never do the other parts because it seems like social commentary and these things of today will probably just have a hissy fit. You can read a full version here: https://allnurseryrhymes.com/london-bridge-is-falling-down/ , I am not your nanny.

Now that I see these nursery rhymes, I have a sneaky suspicion that surely these can not have been left untouched. Surely nursery rhymes have not been saved from the taint of the day.

Well after reading this: https://www.grunge.com/23605/dark-history-behind-7-classic-nursery-rhymes/ I would hope they got a bit of taint to fix those pathetic old school ideas because obviously, the older generations were as retarded as any new school thoughts just ina more straight forward way.

They were kinda like noob prejudices, albeit taking 100's years to figure out. Hopefully, with the internet, we can get through the current retardation of the ages in a fraction of that time.

Till then it is probably best to enjoy the comedy. Obviously, unless you live in Africa, Middle East, Asia, North America... Did I miss any? In those places, you just best hope to stay alive while the inbreds fight it out. The rest of the world though gets to enjoy seemingly moving past your savage cultures and into their own culture of pseudo-intellectualism a.k.a barbarism.

Maybe your new hobby is to reform nursery rhymes and if you do it well then all the best, other than that, just remember "No one cares."

“The itsy bitsy spider voted each year.
Their candidate won. Then came the dismay.
Around came voting, and told only lies,
so the itsy bitsy spider voted again.”

I care. Did you ever find out how much the shag was? Asking for a friend.
