Eat’em, they are a good food source.
There is always a burial at sea.
Flush.
Sometimes I wonder whether it is only westerners who have these tiktalk lived.
Embarrassing to watch
Exactly. Westerners have gone mad.
Or get him a stuffed animal???
These idiot parents should be sterilized. Giving a child whatever they ask for just never works out.
Wow. Preemptive solution? “No. You may not have an octopus for a pet”. After the fact? Flush the 50 kids down the toilet.
Growing up we had a rescue scotty, 1 cat which disappeared, and a borrowed compound Guard dog while living in SE Asia. After that and we returned stateside dad said nope, no more pets. I was a little pissed. But he was right. Got kids, no pets. There were better things to do than walk the kids dogs and empty cat boxes.
I’ve had a few dogs and cats afterwards but during life, and now I realize that at my age that although I would like to have a pet, it’s kind of nice not having a pet.
I have thought about volunteering at the local SPCA but all they have is pitbulls in there and I don’t really care for that breed.
“Stupid for getting the Octopus in the first place but now he has 50 of those suckers and does not know how to be rid of them?”
Keep the mother, use the children for sushi.
Someone this stupid will drop it into a sewer or lake and destroy an ecosystem.
Octopus was a mainstay of my grandfather’s seven fishes supper on Christmas Eve. Worked for him. Not me they remind me of squid which we used for bait!
Mom and dad should have learned how to say “NO.”
***Wow, it’s like Cal Worthington and his dog Spot, only different.***
I remember his advertisements in the 1970s!
I like to eat baby octopuses cooked in a spicy Korean sauce.
Sell them or give back to the store that they got the first one from.
“There it is you all, the stupidest thing I will read all day and it’s only 5:52 am”
That they named a female octopus Terrance is all you need to know about them. And yeah, it’s right up there re: “the stupidest thing” all day.
They should have gotten him the Hippopotamus instead.
“The story is almost another illustration of open borders.”
Gives new meaning to the term “anchor babies”.
STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES!
I visited a wolf sanctuary last Summer. They have a wolf that was a gift to a teenaged girl from her parents. The girl was obsessed with wolves but was angry with the parents because she knew what was necessary to care for one. She immediately had them hire a contractor to build an enclosure that exceeded the standards used by wolf rescues. She also spent time with it every day.
When it was time for her to leave for college she arranged to donate the wolf to the sanctuary. At first they said they didn’t have any room so her family donated the money (about $40,000) to build an additional enclosure (they’re kept individually or in pairs). Then they said they couldn’t ship the wolf so the family flew it from Montana to Texas on their private jet.
The wolf has a trust fund.
