Saw the title and honestly thought at first that this was the new K&F thread.

I can't read the WaPo article, so I read Ed Yong's report in the Atlantic instead. I was already feeling guilty about eating octopodes; now I feel bad about using them in lab experiments too.

I don't even have a lab and I find octopus too chewy.

If you give an octopus ecstasy before cooking it will that change the taste?

4. Dunno. Try a controlled experiment with a couple of teenagers before serving it to guests.

Hey, thanks for the blog article.Much thanks again. Keep writing.

Given all the news about assholes from the 80s, Jon Cryer would have been a better name to use.

Cryer, Cryer, Masturbator, Cryer.

I saw a headline that said something like "Seal slaps kayaker in face with octopus" and wondered if they were all using.

There's video.

They don't show the kayaker paying the seal after.
