Squids or Octopi

[Venom]

Which would you rather have as a pet? A squid or an Octopus?

I for one am a huge squid fan.

[tidus_rox]

Octopus here!

[Yuna_wannabe]

Octopus! you could train it to get lots of stuff with its tentecles...(bad spelling i know)

[McLovin']

Well squids eat people so Octopi.

[Yuna_wannabe]

So does a savage raging OCTOPUS!!!...if there is such a thing...

[theundeadhero]

<i>I'd like to be, under the sea, in an octopuss' garden; in the shade.</i>

[Yuna_wannabe]

Then how would you breath?

[bipper]

It is a song; Octpopu's Garden. I personally think it is an old hippy song about sex, and you would to if you listened to the words :(

I would rather have a Krakken, whatever they are.

You cant have a Krakken thats like cheating, man.

[Orion Zero]

A Krakken is just a giant squid. It's a German word, remember the old sea legends o giant squids and sea monsters attacking ships? Well those were called Krakken, giant squid.

[Vikeve]

I would want both so that i could make them battle eachother but they would have to giant and powerful with deathrays!

This thread tickles my fancy :jess: Thank you for making it.

It is, to be honest, a very difficult question to answer. The two have strong similarities, yet critical differences. I feel I am compelled to respond with 'Squid', however, as they have two tentacles more, have a better shape (Which is, incidentally, why Rye prefers squid, although she'll go for anything with tentacles.), and are possibly slightly more intelligent.

Almost all cephalopods, however, are deserving of our utmost respect and reverence. They are beautiful, masterful creatures, and are the rightful masters of the oceans of Earth. I would go so far as to say we should elect a Cephalopod of some description Overlord of Humankind.

[Orion Zero]

That would be pretty cool. I'd choose squids because Octopuses are over-rated. The footage of giant squids last year from the coast of japan was very cool.

I knew Mr. MILF would like a thread about cephalopods. :) My fancy is tickled as well.

Also, I would NOT go for anything with tentacles. :mad2: I do prefer squid though. :jess:

[Orion Zero]

Come on, The Krakken (Giant Squid) from Pirates 2 ate Jack Sparrow/Johny Depp alive, how much cooler does it need to be to get the respect the squid race deserves?

Has it faced the ten trials of death yet?

[Dreddz]

Both are good, free pen refills for a life time !

But......Ill go with octopus, they could clean 8 things at once...

Please. You wanted Harley to be genetically modified thus;

[Captain Maxx Power]

I'd like a square-octopus. Then I get the best of both worlds.

(Squaoctopus, geddit?)

[Pike]

I vote squid, for it is pleasing to Mr. MILF, the future ruler of the universe, that I do so.

*glances at poll results*

Oooh, tie ball game.

[Madame Adequate]

Gir's eagerness to please me pleases me.

I shall ensure she has second choice of squid 'companions'. :hyper:

[I Took the Red Pill]

Octopi. No doubt.

[boris no no]

An octopus
So many arms....

[Venom]

So many arms so little chores to do!:(

[Psychotic]

Octopus. There's an octopus in Germany named Frida that can open jars.

[Vikeve]

It is a song; Octpopu's Garden. I personally think it is an old hippy song about sex, and you would to if you listened to the words :(


I dont see how that song is perverted. for some cute little song for the kids to sing at a camp i was counciling the music teacher decided to teach them that song (there was an underwater theme) i had to sing that song over and over and nothing was fired on my perverted radar was it sublimaly screwing with my mind? the poor children.

[Madame Adequate]

Octopi. No doubt.

Wrong pill, wrong cephalopod... you gon' get LUTHOR'D!

WRONG!

Sorry MILF, but they didn't call him Doctor Squid because Stan Lee knows 8 limbs are better than 6. You're not going to undermine Stan Lee now, are you?

[boris no no]

You're obviously not thinking of the same sort of chores as me ;)

And... Squid have six tentacles since when?

Order: Decapodiformes.

Decapod. Ten.

[I Took the Red Pill]

Damn.

i changed my mind about wanting a pet octupus after watching this video. the video changed my outlook on wat's more dangerous, a shark or octupus, as well:O_O:

[your.mind.is.on.the.line]

I vote for Cthulhu!

[Jsb01]

... it depends on what it is being used for.

[your.mind.is.on.the.line]

Because of how many arms you need for certain tasks? :confused:

[bipper]

I have one tenticle, and it has gotten me in a LOT of trouble. Imagine what 6, 8, or 10 would do!?

Bipper

[Jsb01]

what are we talking about that has 6 tenticles? (if some squids do then this is an honest question... if they don't this is a smart *ss rhetorical question)

Octopuses have eight tentacles, squid have ten. Nothing in this discussion has only six tentacles. :)

That video owns. Octopuses make me <3.

[DK]

Giant Squids are the coolest animals with tentacles. So i'll take one of those.

[Venom]

I vote for Cthulhu!

I was hoping someone would bring him up.:)
