Octopi

Have never had the pleasure of doing handstands

I really like Octopi, they're intelligent and one in Germany predicted the outcome of 4 matches in the world cup. But you can never have one as a pet unless it's in a glass box because they escape because of their amazing problem-solving skills and boneless body. But mainly I love them because they're peaceful although they could kill you easily. Some medium-sized and large octopi have been known to kill sharks. Tis' a shame they have such a short life-span.

Also, when a male mates, he dies two months after. Bummer

 

I have done hand stand's in the pool before, I don't think I could do them now with my back hurting

 

If I died two months after I first mated, I would've had a rather good life.


Can't say my girlfriend would've liked that though..

 

nice thread
they are amazing creatures

 

But an octopus have no bones so it wouldn't be able to support the handstanding

I'm sure an octopus would make for a terrific breakdancer

 

mmmmmmmmm, Octopussy.

 

we had a regular that used to come into the store i worked in and he was a really cool older man. He was always really fun to talk to and he told me a story once about a pet octopus that he had once.

The octopus could communicate with his dog. The dog and the octopus became best friends and one day the octopus got stuck in the water filter in the top of the tank. The guy was sitting in the other room with the dog when the dog jumped up and ran out of the room. he said he felt that their was something terribly wrong.

After his experience with his octopus he told me he questioned whether the dog and the octopus could communicate telepathically or even if he could sense the octopus as well.

it cool to think about octopi being able to read minds and communicate that way(like aliens) or if they can see into the funture too.

 

Octopi are really cool. I like the Brite sour gummi ones.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if they could. Sharks have can sense movements by electrical waves or whatever so if some species have other senses that we do not it would make sense

 

I feel your pain.
They are such mysterious creatures, this video always blows my mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhVel-1_rmA&feature=search"]YouTube- octopus escapes through a 1 in hole
I wish I could have a tentacled buddy.

 

possibly the coolest animal ever

That's a really sweet story. Animals are amazing creatures!

 

I just ate octopus for the first time, id call it the true chicken of the sea

 

Love them. Very intelligent animals as well. Theres a slideshow around somewhere with an octopus opening a jar to get at the lobster inside, and eating it.

 

Dont worry theyre farmed.. the fish trade is very sick.. disgusting amounts of sea food are harvested everyday

 

I wasn't talking about octopus, I was talking about my not be able to do hand stands

 

My bad I misread it

 

That's cool, alot of people get confused about my wrighting
