Tits like coconuts... and so do Octopi

Got your attention, didn't I?

I've seen octopi play. I've seen them use tools. I've seen them squeeze their ponderous bulk through a hole the size of a quarter. But I have never seen anything like this in my life. This little guy knows how to have fun with - and make good use of - coconut shells.

You can't tell me there's not intelligence in there...

Tits are temperate birds. Where do they find coconuts, outside of Mercia?

As for the octopus, I like the part at the end where it tries to use the video camera. =^_^=

Makes me wonder just how big that octopus is to fit inside those shells.
(or are they big shells?)

They look about like "C"-shells to me...

I'm surprised I haven't seen that joke before with regard to mermaids.

I am too, since it's been around for quite a while...

Yeah but it's a two bit joke told only by sick squid.

Tentacular!

Octopi do seem to be the smartest invertebrates. It's kind of cute, really.

Not hiding, questing!

The last scene was the octopus coming up to the cameraman and saying "I have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot."

The link being when the cameraman chews on his calimari and says "S'rubbery"
