Why you shouldn't piss off an octopus.

"In an experiment done by Roland Anderson, a biologist at the Seattle Aquarium, giant Pacific octopuses would rise to the surface to greet a researcher who had fed them in the past. But when a second researcher approached - one who'd touched them with a bristly stick - they squirted water on him."

Happy Octopus Week!

I've been there! It's quite nice. But I didn't get to play with a giant Pacific octopus. T_T

I shall keep this in mind. Particularly if my mother in law turns out to be an octopus.
