Used by Vinny Barbarino, in welcome back kotter, as a scape-goat for extreme frustration, or backed into a corner and no intellegent answer is thought of.
Another name for a moose. Nickname derived from their very large muzzle, sometimes described as rubbery or leathery and their affinity for aquatic environments, where they often feed, and their large, somewhat ungainly, donkey-like appearance.
