MOOSE!

[hells_half_acre]

So I was helping out my friend with GISHWHES and it led me to read the SuperWiki page on "Moose" (as a term for Jared/Sam).

It mentions that the first use of "Moose" was Crowley in 6x04: "I don't need you to fight my battles for me, Moose. Get Bent."

And it suddenly occurred to me that we all just ASSUMED Crowley was talking about the large elk type of moose. But, what if Crowley was a secret fan of Archie Comics?!?!

Maybe he was referring to Big Moose:


Ok, probably not likely...but it blew my mind for a second there, because it STILL FITS.

I actually always thought that was what he meant.. Moose from Archie comics.. I didn't think he meant an actual moose.

You must have been one of the only ones, because it seemed that everyone else just jumped immediately to the animal.

First time I've seen it brought up! Guess I am weird (I've started avoiding some places and just stuck to fic after some of the craziness I ran into in the fandom here and there).

Yeah, it's true that I can't vouch for the WHOLE fandom. Maybe other people thought of it too - I also stay away from some places and just stick to my nice friendly little corners.

Well, if that's so then Crowley wasn't just noting his size.

He was casting aspersions on his mental faculties.

Typical Crowley.

It's true!
