[–]muffdiver69 1 point2 points ago

I say its about time we having a culling. grab yer pitch forks, boys, we're havin moose meat tonight!

[–]upsidedownllama[S] 2 points3 points ago

they might be pure evil, but you can't deny they have a certain cuteness, even if they wouldn't hesitate to senselessly crush you to death!

[–]username_constant 2 points3 points ago

It is all part of their adorable trap.

[–]sarahbara2222 4 points5 points ago

[–]gafinklewitz 0 points1 point ago

Is the proper way to say it really meese? I never really knew for sure

[–]nwydo 11 points12 points ago

Yep, the same way the singular of sheep is shoop. One shoop, two sheep, one goose to geese, one moose to meese.

[–]aequitas3 6 points7 points ago

Moose.

[–]fuzzyperson98 1 point2 points ago

Mosinee.

[–]aequitas3 0 points1 point ago

I have thought about this for years. Then, since mouse plural are mice, and louse plural are lice, wouldn't house be hice? It gets infinitely more complicated.

[–]Cole7rain 1 point2 points ago

English is terrible.

[–]Bragzor 0 points1 point ago

They're called Elks in English

[–]The_Prince1513 4 points5 points ago

Elk and Moose are different animals....

[–]Bragzor 1 point2 points ago

In America, yes. In non-American English it's wapiti and elk respectively. The settlers simply got it wrong.

[–]alexmies 1 point2 points ago

Alex Mies who went to high school in Michigan? If yes, funny seeing you here! It's a small (Internet) world!

[–]alexmies 1 point2 points ago

No. I'm sorry to disappoint. But I'm pretty weirded out that there is another Alex Mies.

[–]elysedc 0 points1 point ago

[–]phunkosaurus -3 points-2 points ago

I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT YOU CUNT

edit: sorry for being rude...

[–]AsgardGoddess 0 points1 point ago

Meese isn't actually the plural of moose. It's both moose and mooses.

[–]lintandstring -1 points0 points ago

Nope your wrong it is one moose or two moose. Just like fish or sheep.

[–]AsgardGoddess 0 points1 point ago

[–]ZebraMermaid -1 points0 points ago

Although I'd hate to side with the grammar of someone using the wrong form of "your," both Webster and the Online Scrabble Dictionary agree with mooses being wrong.

[–]AsgardGoddess 0 points1 point ago

I do admit not every definition of moose that I've seen has included mooses being the plural, but I've always found it to either be moose or mooses, never meese.

[–]ZebraMermaid 1 point2 points ago

Did you try the Becktionary?

[–]LittleBear42 12 points13 points ago

They'll be violent beasts when they're grown. almost get attacked by one every day on my bike trail

[–]WatRedditHathWrought 10 points11 points ago

A moose once bit my sister

[–]WatRedditHathWrought 6 points7 points ago

Mynd you, moose bites Kan be pretty nasti.

[–]FOUR_YOLO -2 points-1 points ago

and raped my mother

[–]LittleBear42 0 points1 point ago

was it a pretty serious wound?

[–]WatRedditHathWrought 0 points1 point ago

No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink".

[–]LittleBear42 1 point2 points ago

She was carving her initials in a moose with a sharpened tooshbrush!? well than she deserves to be bit.

[–]mcguire -1 points0 points ago

Well, if you wouldn't blow the dang train whistle all the time....

(Ok, I seem to recall that bull moose get all territorial around trains, but I couldn't find any corroborating link. That one seems better, anyway.)

[–]muffdiver69 0 points1 point ago

ya lol this is what they look like down the scope of my sniper rifle, gotta get em while their young before they can hurt anyone. stay safe out there, brother

[–]LittleBear42 -1 points0 points ago

[–]nWo4lifeSweet 3 points4 points ago

As someone born and raised in BC's caribou area I can say these are some of the most adorable moose I've ever seen

[–]Manisil 3 points4 points ago

Yeah they are all cute, until the grow up and become more dangerous than a bear.

[–]Bloviously 9 points10 points ago

Sure. They're cute. Until they become vicious murder machines.

[–]liverandfunyuns 2 points3 points ago

I'll just say it. Their legs look like bell bottoms!

[–]ilovewandy 4 points5 points ago

I want to frolic with them in a field of flowers.

[–]redromina 2 points3 points ago

Until this picture I didn't know that a moose could be so cute.

[–]AluminuMoose 2 points3 points ago

As a tall individual who once grew 6 inches in a year, I looked just like this around 4th grade.

[–]Cawrin 0 points1 point ago

[–]moo8 1 point2 points ago

[–]TheConeIsReturned -1 points0 points ago

The plural for "moose" should be "meese." let us begin this practice.

[–]stef_wm 0 points1 point ago

wow, they are so freakishly long, in a cute way though.

[–]TroubleInTurtleTown 1 point2 points ago

They're like living bell bottoms.

[–]Username200 -1 points0 points ago

And there's a reason why there's no moose on r/aww.

[–]nessundorma 0 points1 point ago

[–]AngryTennisDad 1 point2 points ago

My son wanted a moose and I told him he could have one if he was good all the time but it was a lie.

[–]lizbethblues 0 points1 point ago

LiveStrong moose?

[–]mayrataylor 0 points1 point ago

cute except for the fact that moose sleep standing, with butt to the car on a no lights highway. if that mouse was older than a yearling, myself & the car load would be dead.

[–]KneeDeepInTheDead 0 points1 point ago

probably cause they look like aliens

[–]Gracen 1 point2 points ago

Oh my gosh, they're so awkward and gangly. I want one! ><

[–]CokeFryChezbrgr 0 points1 point ago

Moosen

[–]brandnewtothegame 0 points1 point ago

Love how moose calves -- sturdy legs but tiny bodies and heads -- grow up to be the opposite: skinny legs supporting impossibly large trunks and heads, and gigantic antlers.

[–]mpavlofsky -1 points0 points ago

I'm sorry, but the correct plural form is meese /holds phone to ear/ I'm sorry whats that it's still moose well I DONT CARE

[–]TheRealNortson -1 points0 points ago

My god, they look fake - almost like some sort of joke taxidermy.

[–]vammer -1 points0 points ago

There are plenty of them on /r/hunting and they are equally as impressive... just typically not standing anymore.
