Dunno, but it stikes me as a brilliant source for banter (I work in IT, there’s lots of weak arms and banter to try it on)

Yes, but it’s even more simplistic (I agree with wider principle you’re using).- The octopus is going to have a much harder time finding a safe environment.
Unless it stays in the fish aquarium - I wonder why it didn’t just stay where the tasty snacks were? (Not wanting to project a humanised, moralistic perspective on its delightfully naughty behaviour…).
Maybe there was nothing good to hide under, perhaps?

What ever happened to “you have the freedom do do/say what you want but the responsibitly to consider those around you”
