  Did no one notice the giant puddle of water between the tanks?

  After a little research it seems that “octopi” and “octopuses” have been so widely used and for so long, that dictionaries include all of them as correct. An article from merriam webster even pragmatically suggests referring to them as “octopodes” is less likely to be understood so stick with “octopi” or “octopuses”. Also, it seems “octopodes” is the more widely accepted “correct” plural and “octopoda” refers to the genus.

  But it’s an interesting topic, i wish to subscribe to octopus etymology facts(or any interesting reads)

  I feel like i’ve become highly attuned to the sound of a phone and can hear it anywhere in a room. The disadvantage is of course a lingering stress whenever i get confused with a similar sound or someone elses phone
