Chilean blob determined to be part of sperm whale carcass.
ewwwwwwwwwwww
Oh, how prosaic.
Hey thanks Zenster. I had been wondering what had happened to that blob and I had entirely missed the update. Too bad it didn’t turn out to be something a little more interesting.
Oh well. I guess sometimes a dead whale is just a dead whale.
I was going to make some kind of crack about “call Ishmael,” but the sheer lack of wit involved might have gotten me banned.
Thanks for the update, Zenster.
Horse pucky. It’s a shoggoth, and no one can tell me different.
Well, Zenster , thank ye. We do try to keep these things away from the free zoo up here, and our supply of ipacec is running low…so - as they say, “Give me a bottle of rum, by gum!” Triple icky—sticky—! Poor creature.
My browser refused to take a look. (How protective!)

Thanks for wrapping that up, Zenster
Ohhhh…Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?
Absorbent and yellow and porous is he!
So sorry, I just could.not.resist. throwing in some sea humor. 
I fail to see the humor.

From the article:
That’s such lovely iambic heptameter. Brings a tear to my eye, it does. It has become my mantra.
Wasn’t that one of the first guesses from the sciencetician community?
j.c., I think you mean not “sciencetician” but “scientificician”. No worries, though … we all know what you meant:)
Well that’s a load off my mind.
So that’s what the blob was…
I wonder how the guy who pointed out the EYES of the supposed giant octpi feels… thanks for the update.
