Woah there, Mr Deep! I see the way you are eye-banging that cephalopod.

On the other hand, they didn’t have Fallout New Vegas and had to contend with the REAL Caesar’s legions, so I say we still win.
jagot@programming.dev 1 week ago
Julius Cæsar lived during the Iron Age.
RQG@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Both sound pretty metal.
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Eh, close enough 🤷😉

Julius Caesar

Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Fun fact: Julius Caesar wasn’t the only Caesar by a long shot.
Additional fun fact: It was super late here when my brain farted that out 😄

But they also don’t have starfield
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 week ago
yeah but how many ceremonial buttplugs did they have? not just day to day buttplugs, I’m talking formal occasion ones.
Zip2@feddit.uk 1 week ago
I have to ask, what ceremony is that for and does it have a parade?

Also correct. Octopii, too
tamal3@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Words in English that end in “-us” and pluralize to “-i” are from Latin, such as cactus/cacti or focus/focus. However, “octopus” is from Greek, and it’s correct pluralization from Greek would be “octopodes.” In English, we have also adopted “octopuses,” which fits our standard pluralization rules.
So, “octopi” is actually a language mix up, though one that’s so common that it seems to be accepted in English.
Semjaza@lemmynsfw.com 1 week ago
Actually, octopi is the “erroneous” one. Although it is a very common mistake so might make the shift to recognised before too much longer.
Everyone still understands it, so it doesn’t matter.

Now I wonder how Octopie tastes like. It’s probably related to seafood pizza. 🫠

I have half a kilo of cinnamon.

I have ice, on demand, and hot water, flushing toilets, magic boxes that entertain me.
I’d fucking give it all for an octopus vase….
Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I accidentally spilled about a tablespoon of peppercorns on the floor and could hear my ancestors screaming in horror as I swept them up and threw them away.
watersnipje@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 week ago
But what do you store it in? A vase with an octopus on it?
TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
I have an electron rubiks cube
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 week ago
You do want to keep octopuses in jars because they’re dicks who fuck up the ocean for the rest of us.
And don’t get me started on those fucking cuttlefish.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 week ago
I’ve had that, yes. Also dental care
Klear@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Do octopodes even have teeth?
MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 1 week ago
Some of then have a venomous beak. So. There’s that. :|
rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 1 week ago
Oh. On them. Not in them.
SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 1 week ago
There is our chance to surpass them!
Rutty@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
I have plastic vases that can have them on them. Should take 3 days total
