Octapi: The Next Step in Evolution?

Sign in to disble this ad
It is quite possible that octopi will evolve bone structure and rise up and take over earth after humans.


Trust me. This is true. It's gonna happen in 2012 or something. Why do you think C'Thulu's head looks like an Octopus?

I had a friend who had an octopus tank on one side of a room and a tank full of delicious looking fish on the other. The thing was constantly staring at the fish and one day while my friend was at work, it escaped from it's tank [not easy], walked across the room, opened the tank [not easy] ate the fish, and walked right back home and hung out like nothing happened.
