This is the second time a young Black Hat has been used.
It isn't clear what Black Hat would have said if not interrupted, but if twenty was indeed pronounced so as to slant-rhyme with bunny, one possibility is, "I'll annex your entire country," (which could conceivably be followed by, "Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four. Thus Hairy requests that they do something more appropriate for children, like reading a picture book - specifically, the "touch and feel" book for small children and babies known as Pat the Bunny. So it goes like this:īlack Hat: Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty Hairy: Can't we just read Pat the Bunny? In the title text it seems like Hairy interrupts Black Hat's last rhyme after twenty, and finishes with his own rhyme, with "Bunny" ending in the same sound if you pronounce twenty like "twunny" as in some parts of the world. Since Hairy is just a normal child he is really not interested in Black Hat's realistic version of what a war really is. The other child, who will someday turn into Hairy, meanwhile, is unnerved by all this and wants to stop playing. The thumb war game in Black Hat's version is instead a quite cynical portrayal of our world, criticizing the "might is right" mentality that is the sad reality of our globe, and the government of the world by the militarily strongest nations. In real life the UN would try to put an end to a given war by using diplomatic power and has the mandate of using (blue-helmet) peace forces in war zones to put an end to violence and give out a mandate to nations so that they can intervene in some crisis on their own behalf. In the last line Black Hat states that, even though this thumb war goes on and on, the "thumb U.N.", the thumb war universe equivalent of the United Nations (UN), won't intervene. This may be implying an imposition of firearms regulation or arms control as a response to the small-arms proliferation in the previous verse, or the defenseless nature of noncombatants in war. The third rhyme continues the counting until twelve and mentions digits as in fingers, and states that they cannot protect themselves. Black Hat transfers this into the "thumb war universe", introducing finger guns into the thumb-to-thumb combat. The second rhyme, "finger guns proliferate," is a pun on the finger gun gesture and describes small arms proliferation - the spread of black-market weapons which often comes with war as captured and smuggled guns make their way into the hands of paramilitary groups. He shows this in further lines, invented by himself. The standard concept is subverted here: Young Black Hat interprets the simulation of hand-to-hand combat with thumbs differently, comparing it with real conflict. A pinned thumb must be held down for long enough to complete a count of four, or to complete the closing chant, "one, two, three, four, I won the thumb war". Once the opening chant is complete, the game consists of trying to pin the opponent's thumb down. The game is often started with both players chanting "one, two three, four, I declare a thumb war." In some variations, the chant continues counting up by an additional set of four, with a rhyme. This is a common game for children, in which two players hold hands and attempt to pin each other's thumb down. Two small children, one a small Black Hat, sitting among their toys are playing thumb war. Ten Thumbs is engaging for children and yet simple enough for adults!
