Okay. Now I'm curious.

(This is all beer_good_foamy's fault.)


[Poll #1526051]


Is it a regional thing? A generational thing? Why all the confusion?

We don't sing, "The incy wincy spider" or "An incy wincy spider" but "Incy Wincy spider climbed up the water spout; Down came the rain and washed poor Incy out." - it's her name.

Another point of contention, then. I thought it was 'down came the rain and washed the spider out.'

Exactly, if 'itsy bitsy' is a description of the spider, that's what you'd say, whereas we say her name again.

I mean. I respect cultural differences.

Except when they're wrong.
