Today, at work, I was trying to get the octopus out of its tank to transfer it to another one. It instantly latched to my face and sprayed ink all over me. My boss told me to stop playing with the animals. FML

Do you work at an aquarium or a pet shop? Because if its a pet shop you can't have the animals getting too "attached" to you.

It probably looked like you were dancing arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm-in-arm.

Wait...11 arms? Who does the last one belong to?!

An Asian chick. Who happened to be watching.

Sounds like you have an awesome job. Seriously.

Octopuses rule! That being said, I wouldn't want one attached my face. Hopefully it didn't get you with its beak!

Lets hope it wasn't a blue ringed octopus

#40, Octopi. You should know the correct plural of your masters.

Actually that's not the plural, since it's not a latin noun. It's greek; the correct plural is either octopodes or octopuses.

Look it up octopuses or octopi they both work

A Blue ringed octopus is very small. I pictured a very large octopus wrapping its tentacles completely around poor OP's face. And I doubt one would just casually handle a blue ringed one

#58, I just did a crossword puzzle on the plane, and an answer was "octopi," so I guess I win ;)

@58, It's a sad state of affairs that you got neg'd for providing the most factual response about the plural of octopus. Dictionaries list both because dictionaries change with how people talk and as languages evolve. So both are shown because so many people use the incorrect "octopi".

Omg that's hilarious! Seriously, where do you work?

Beware. By tomorrow morning, you might turn into Doctor Octopus!

I thought that only happened in animes XD

Why in God's name did you put your face close enough to an octopus for this to happen? Are you stupid or have a thing for octopus?

Depends on the species. If the tentacles were long enough it could have easily latched on OP's face while he was holding it from a distance

Sorry dude, but your life is awesome.
