    Also, octopi. They’re all “correct” due to the multiple original languages’ grammar.

      i can do you one better: language doesn’t have rules, if it sounds good it’s valid, who cares

    at this point i just spite everyone and call them something like “octopodii” or “octopiuses”

    I’ve always preferred ‘octopodes’. It’s just such a fun word.

      After reading the children of time series, I choose to use octopodes simply due to the fact that they are beautifully narcissistic little bastards in those books.

      Man is that a good, if gut wrenching series.

      Thank you! I knew they were all correct, and I knew why, but I didn’t have an authoritative source to point folks to.

    Octopuses are really good at doing heroin because they have lots of arms to choose from.

  It’s all just one researcher and his best pal octopus taking all the biology budget to have a blast on the weekends.

  I wish octopuses lived longer. I’d have an octopus friend.

  There’s no “may” about it. Each octopus arm has its own little processing center to handle its unique movements, it’s called the ganglia.

    Just like the butt brain in a t rex to manage walking. I see.
