Cephalopod Friday

joelmw had a video to watch said Fri, Jun 19th 2015 at 2:43pm ET

I'm not sure it's worth disturbing the mighty Oc, but I thought it at least worth saying that Science Friday is having a Cephalopod Spectacular. I don't know that snapster will be featured, but they've got all kinds of other octopus stuff, including a little guy who is oh so adorbs. Unbearable cuteness begins at about 0:47.

I love cephalopods! Octopi are incredibly interesting and I strongly encourage any science-related posts so I say keep it going @joelmw.

- @JonT That .gif is 67 Meg in size. Was that really necessary?

- @SIMBM yes. Mainly because it started as a .gifV/.webm, which loads much faster but doesn't auto-load inline on our forum (or anywhere else as far as I can tell).

- @JonT Well, next time warn us; some of us have data limits (especially when travelling)

- @SIMBM WARNING: I will occasionally use large .gifs on the forum if I find a .gifv or .webm and like it and want it posted in-line on the forums.

I enjoy cephalopods, but strictly in the eating sense.
