The Octopus – Alien invader or good eating?
There’s no other creature in the ocean that makes me crap my Jockey’s quite like the octopus. It’s one of most alien looking creatures in the world and I’m not entirely convinced it’s meant to be here.
Science Fiction writers like to entertain us with stories of alien invasions with weird looking creatures sent to earth to destroy mankind. We all know its just fiction and the likelihood of an alien invasion anytime soon is slim, but stop for a moment and consider the octopus. Eight tentacles with little suckers on ‘em. Weird looking bug fucking eyes. They creep and crawl around on the ocean floor like the undersea hoodlums they are. Can we really be certain they’re native to our planet? I mean, look at those things! They’re scary ass bitches!
Now, go watch how this octopus eats a fucking shark live.
Next time I have sushi, I’m totally ordering octopus. I have declared war on the eight-legged alien invader one order at a time. I’ll probably get the giant clam, too, cuz it’s good eating. Oh and some halibut. Unagi’s always good. Maybe a specialty roll or two. And plenty of ginger and wasabi, you gotta have that.
I pray the octopus doesn’t sprout legs and come after me anytime soon. That would suck.
