Giant Squid anagrams to icky, squishy phallic fish
Posted by: thirst for.... | July 28, 2005 at 07:22 AM
The giant squid's only known enemy is the sperm whale. Whales have been found with squid in their stomachs, and battle scars believed caused by its suckers.
*wants to make a comment about this, but is unable to formulate one. suffice to say a comment is needed*
JOSHKR!

"accidental self-ingestion" WBAGNF something, I'm just not sure what.

Well, what else are you gonna eat down there? The takeout stinks.
Posted by: Chianca At Large | July 28, 2005 at 07:30 AM

Posted by: queensbee | July 28, 2005 at 07:30 AM
See, this is what happens when you introduce slang to other species. The whole "eat me" thing goes right over their heads, or into their mouths, or something.

Hey, EVERYBODY loves a good plate of Calamari.

Humans get those too. They're called Hickies!
And all too often the scares last a long time...
Posted by: kibby F5 | July 28, 2005 at 07:42 AM
I'm not sure how they can stand eating each other without tartar sauce and chips.

[MORE] Sperm whales with battle scars believed caused by its suckers.
If I were a betting man, I'd say the scars were left by the beaks. Suckers good. Beaks bad!
Posted by: DaBlade | July 28, 2005 at 07:46 AM
Make that scars.... mumblemumblemumble

"They have eight arms as thick as fire hoses and large and complex brains."
I think I'm in love.

Posted by: snif | July 28, 2005 at 08:01 AM
YEA!

Careful, Leetie. Trystan may come and shake his finger at you ;)
Posted by: djtonyb | July 28, 2005 at 08:43 AM
I have a few battle scars from my, umm, suckers
Posted by: Joshkr | July 28, 2005 at 08:45 AM
"scientist Simon Jarmon said while the study could not rule out accidental self-ingestion"
i wonder, do the tentacles regenerate like lizard tails and starfish arms? perhaps they are completely self sustaining. ewwwwwwwwwwww.

Duly noted, DJ.

The giant squid is the world's largest invertebrate, believed to grow up to 18m in length and weighing up to 900kg.
In other words, giant, spineless weenies.

Re: "accidental self-ingestion"
SQUID1: Yum!
SQUID2: Hey, you just ate one of your tentacles, or whatever those things are called!
SQUID1: Damn! I hate it when that happens. It was good, though.
SQUID2: We really need to develop better brains.

It's not the weight, it's the circumference.

Damn blog is screwing up the punchlines. (It's all in the timing!)
