Due to a recent Walking Dead episode, the classic kids nursery rhyme, Eeny Meeny Miny Moe and it's origins have come into question. It has been traced back to the 1820s as a beloved children's counting rhyme saying "Eeny Meeny Miny Moe, catch a tiger by the toe, if he hollars, let him go, Eeny, meeny, miny, moe." However, some people are taking offense due to reports that the nursery rhyme used to use the "n" racist word in place of the word "tiger". The phrase was used in a graphic violent episode of the popular zombie series, The Walking Dead, with the "tiger" version, but many tshirts were created with the phrase and the weapon used in the episode, a baseball bat with barbed wire on it. Some stores have pulled the Neegan bat Eeny Meeny Miny Moe tee shirt from their shelves as a result of complaints, and other stores are saying they can't keep the popular zombie themed tee shirt in stock. Judge for yourself whether you feel it's appropriate for fans of the series:
