    On the other hand, they didn’t have Fallout New Vegas and had to contend with the REAL Caesar’s legions, so I say we still win.

        Words in English that end in “-us” and pluralize to “-i” are from Latin, such as cactus/cacti or focus/foci. However, “octopus” is from Greek, and its correct pluralization from Greek would be “octopodes.” In English, we have also adopted “octopuses,” which fits our standard pluralization rules.

        So, “octopi” is actually a language mix up, though one that’s so common that it seems to be accepted in English.

    You do want to keep octopuses in jars because they’re dicks who fuck up the ocean for the rest of us.

    And don’t get me started on those fucking cuttlefish.
