Life Lesson Learned

Jamie Bisceglia learned that if you catch an octopus while fishing, it’s not a good idea to put it on your face for the sake of a funny picture:

She put the small eight-limbed mollusc on her face and posed, but the octopus grabbed her with its suckers and burrowed its beak into her chin.
"It had barreled its beak into my chin and then let go a little bit and did it again,” she explained.
“It was a really intense pain when it went inside and it just bled, dripping blood for a long time.”…
The painful experience has taught Bisceglia a lesson in handling live animals. "This was not a good idea. Hindsight looking back, I will never do it again," she said.

You cannot cure stupid. Stupid must be bred out of the gene pool.

On a related note, something recently brought to my attention (I almost hate to put this out there because it's one of those things you can't un-know): starfish have their mouth in the middle of their body, and mermaids wear them as bra cups . . .

There's no lifeguard for the gene pool.
