My only complaint is that some are cooked into rubberiness...

Go to a Greek or high end Mexican restaurant. They know how to make it.

I believe Vaughn Meader, a comedian and JFK impersonator started the “Clothe Your Horse” nonsense. But thousands of people did sign a petition to have the horse clothed.

Definitely intelligent animals, but “sentient” means “self-aware,” an attribute that I have always understood to distinguish humans from animals.

My experience was in Spain, where they’re pulled right out of the Mediterranean. Most were very tasty, but there were a couple of bumps...

the last time I had them they were tiny little almost-whole ones, at an Asian buffet restaurant. (What are those called?)

Unless in the future I can try them at a really fancy restaurant, I think I’ll pass :-)

My wife dined on them in Spain. She liked it until she noticed the little suckers on the small tentacles. She asked what they were and I told her. I ate the rest of her soup. It was delicious.

Is this because the octopuses come from another planet, where they are in charge?

You’re right. A liberal democrat pulled off a ‘fake hate’ scam and made some traditional Americans look like fools. “Thousands” out of millions of citizens... but liberals had a big laugh.

I’m sure we could come up with something equally embarrassing - but it’s unlikely press butt boys would carry the joke for us... The MSM tends to ‘catch’ things that make democrats look like fools. Odd how that works.

Seriously - have YOU ever seen ‘the press’ make one of their so called mistakes that damages Democrats?

Never happens.
