1.7 Metre-Long Squid Approaches 8 Year Old Girl. Offers Candy. Newslink

That’s it!

Behold the Power of Dope!
Octupus…Squid…ehhhh. sorry. I get all tentacley goodness confused.

So sue Google, already. :slight_smile:

Or the stench…excuse me, Joisey aroma :cool:

Hey that’s North Jersey, not Central Jersey and the Shore.
Specifically the Elizabeth/Linden sections of the NJ Turnpike (Rt95)
As you are in the Center of the Universe, I will assume you are from NYC.
Aa an Ex-New Yorker I understand the mistake you made.

Jim

Well, I went to the door and there was a girl scout selling candy,
so I asked, “How much is it?” and the girl said “About threefiddy”
It was just about that time that I noticed the girl scount was a
giant squid from the paleozoic era and I said
“God Damn, Squid, stop coming around asking for threefiddy!”

Is that you Chef?

  1. There is no such thing as a tree octopus.

  2. The child was in no danger, other than that caused by panic. Sure, a *much * larger squid could have endangered her, but not one of that size.

  3. (and just so as Opal doesn’t get upset) I don’t care how you cook it, calamari is still nasty. :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyone else think that The Fighting Cephalopods would be a great name for a high school football team?

First it was Land Sharks.
Then Jehovia Witness’
Now it’s Paleozoic Squid?
godDAMMIT! It’s getting to the point that I can’t even answer my front door!

Or the glass eye.

No thanks necessary. Just glad to help out!

Hey the Paleozoic Squid is way better than a Jehovia Witness’. :wink:

Well, better at Ping-Pong, sure.

I thought octopodes was another word for Australians.

Australians are Old Ones?

No, but being upside down causes the humors of the body to run to the head and make them look older than they are.

Cthulhu F’thagn, mate. You ever seen the Crocodile Hunter episode where Steve Irwin wrestles with a Star Spawn? “Crikey, she’s a big one!”

Especially when it’s eating dough in a polyethelene bag.

Miskatonic University?

That looks like the aliens from my Classics Illustrated War of the Worlds comic.

Darn it - and here I thought I was being clever…
