Take a right at the gun rack

OK, if you were to file this under COMPLETELY REDONK, and that would be a start.

Um Clo G., first there was Jessica the massaged house-hippo, then Patches the hamburger-ordering house-horse, NOW THIS MOOSE AND ODDLY INTRIGUING SOUNDTRACK. You must be stopped, pure and simple.

Did that MOOSE just STRAIGHTEN that painting on the wall? Am I awake?: Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:50 AM

My favorite part is when the moose tries to eat the photo above the bed. hehehe: Tisha_; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:50 AM

Ok I have seen an rhino, baby camel, buffalo, and a now a moose whats next a elephant ??? I am not sure about that moosac though....: leah b.; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:51 AM

Catchy little ditty; sounds like Finnish--it's like listening to my grandparents :-): TrinketsMom; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:53 AM

What the BLEEP??? [Heh, I think you misspelled that... - Ed.]: taylorreigne; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:54 AM

It sounds like Finnish to me, too. It doesn't sound like my Norwegian kin.: Katrina; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:55 AM

..and they don't straighten pictures before they go to bed.: Katrina; | Mar 25, 2008 at 06:58 AM

Um...WHY DO I NOT HAVE A MOOSE IN MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW????? :(: Alice; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:00 AM

TrinketsMom & Katrina - well spotted! It is indeed Finnish. It's the Ievan Polka as recorded by Loituma. A Capella version: http://youtube.com/watch?v=vjvVBCNcL_A Official music video: ;) http://youtube.com/watch?v=NgrGRcjyzVw: Pixy Misa; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:02 AM

Moosefeets!!!: DejaMew; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:06 AM

*rubs eyes* Blink blink... Did I just see that?: cheesybird; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:09 AM

Um, is anyone else creeped out by the fact that these people have both a live moose and antlers on the wall in their house? More importantly, is the moose creeped out by this?: 260Oakley; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:09 AM

I--words...failing...brain...not work. Moose in the house, which rhymes in Canada.: Redzilla; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:09 AM

260Oakley - mooses shed their antlers each year, so nothing to worry about.: Pixy Misa; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:15 AM

aww I like how they wipe his feets before he comes in for movie night ... heheh... oh and I do believe that moose antlers fall off after mating season.. so the ones hanging up could have been found in the woods.: katiedid; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:16 AM

There there, RedZ. Have some Tokyo.: Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:16 AM

This skandinavian porn plumbs new depths, I mean a threesome with a Moose!: Hon Glad; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:17 AM

Hon Glad, I think you're seeing things in this vid that I'm not. [replaying endlessly]: Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:20 AM

Loituma is a great Finnish folk band. I've got a couple of their albums. Most of the songs are less bouncy and more atmospheric than this polka, though.: Laura Miller; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:21 AM

Does CO offer psychological assistance in getting Finnish earworm out of ones head?: cheesybird; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:24 AM

*EEEVILEST HAND-RUBBINGS* Ohh ho ho. What do you say, Peeps? Who wants to help CheesyBird excise this morning's Polka Earworm? ...or shall *I* take a shot at it?? >;-): Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:27 AM

Lalalalalalaaaa... I'm not listening... lalalalalala!!!: cheesybird; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:32 AM

[riffling through the C.O. Fakebook]: Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:33 AM

ARG! HALP! I can't get that polka song outta my head now! And, by the way, luuuuuuuuv the moose!: Silent Meow; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:39 AM

Awww, that was sweet. I liked watching the baby moose splash in the puddle. Splash! Splash! I hope they take care of this moose for the rest of its life. If it went back into the woods someone would shoot it. :(: Courtney; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:44 AM

Now I'm going to be humming that ALL DAI!! If dey haz a moose, I can has giraffey, yes? 8grabs and runs*: Lizzy; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:44 AM

Gotta' love out their very cool Scandanavian furniture, especially the whole media cabinet/book shelves - puts Ikea to shame. Umm...don't know what to think about the moose lying down to watch tv and crawling into bed with them..: chanpon; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:46 AM

Is a moose in the living room anything like an elephant in the living room?: Paula; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:47 AM

A pet moose may be adorable, but a hunter with a pet moose is ironic in an almost sick kind of way. I can't help but concoct some maudlin story wherein the hunter shot its mom but didn't know it had a baby so he took it home to raise himself... Prolly not the story, but I can't help myself.: Fegli; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:49 AM

Remember what *these* peeps say: Kiss a lovely moose! http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2007/01/back_on_the_moo.html: Theresa; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:50 AM

Haha this is awesome! Definitely odd and slightly disturbing to have a moose lie in your bed, but on the other hand I'd give anything to have a moose pal! Don't go thinking this is the standard thing in Finland :-P: Hiluvilu; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:52 AM

A moose once bit my sister. [Ohhhh no. Not *THIS* gag again... - Ed.] ;): Megan; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:56 AM

Um.... was he scratching that moose with his gun? Eeeep!: Tagabolt; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:57 AM

Um. Uhh. Or as my former MIL would say "Waaaay-ul! I never!" I have to ask...am I the only one worried about what happens when moosie needs to take a pee? Or worse?: Lisa; | Mar 25, 2008 at 07:57 AM

260Oakley - Most hunters are actually animal lovers as well (see the National Geo magazine article about hunters and conservation), so it's probably a common theme for them :): Bebe; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:07 AM

Ah, the Majestyk moose.... Just sing some vapid American song like 'It's a Small World After All' that'll knock it right out of your head, but why would you want to do that? I love that little song- maybe it genetic. Its all the same gene pool. Uff-da! I want a moose, but ya know, they do get BIG. I love the splashing baby pictures!: Katrina; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:13 AM

Should be an old, old British pop song called "Hoots Mon". With the lyrics being "there's a mouse loose about this house" but because it's sung in a very broad Scots accent it sounds like "there's a moose loose aboot this hoose". :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-R1F5RYOco: Desi; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:22 AM

"Is that a moose in bed with us, or are you just happy to see me"? I did get a little worried when they were leading him out into the woods wearing blaze orange and a-totin' guns.: Jen; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:23 AM

Also liked that little polka. I'm undecided about some other Finnish folk music I've heard. Moose do get very BIG. Here, in Canada, people in cars do hit moose, especially males in mating season, this does not do much for the moose, but it also totals the car and possibly the driver. And, by the way, in my part of Canada (Quebec), moose and house do not rhyme, even when you are an English speaker.: Pearl Ostroff; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:27 AM

Bebe, exactly! My dad is both an avid hunter/fisherman and a very active conservationist. Of course, my parents don't have various animal parts hanging up for display in their home, but still.: Renae; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:28 AM

Um, Teho, no, I think the moose CROOKEDED it. Otherwise, I'm similarly wondering if I'm awake. That is purely redonkulous.: A thinker; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:37 AM

Oddly enough, I've heard this song before. No idea where.: Megan; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:40 AM

and moose and house don't rhyme in Ontario, either...: A thinker; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:41 AM

Pearl Ostroff sex: by the way, in my part of Canada (Quebec), moose and house do not rhyme, even when you are an English speaker. I should hope that for the French speakers moose doesn't come even close to rhyming with maison ;o): Redzilla; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:42 AM

RedZ -- Freud & I adore you.: Theo; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:46 AM

I'm very impressed with this Finnish bed that can SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF AN ADULT MOOSE! It looks like a Tempurpedic-maybe they could do an advert.: e-beth; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:47 AM

Ummm.... Where's Rocky Raccoon??!! [Oh, and BTW, I too think the puddle splashing is the best part.]: Johanna; | Mar 25, 2008 at 08:51 AM

okaaaaaay... I wanna know what the first thing was that made them think, "gee, let's take this moose in the house..." I luv it tho!: ceejoe; | Mar 25, 2008 at 09:00 AM

Ring ring ring ring Ring ring ring ring BANANAPHONE!: Pheas; | Mar 25, 2008 at 09:02 AM
