no!!! i'm not GLADIO.

also my chest doesn't look as good as my arms, you can already tell thru a shirt.

Maybe you should do some crunches.

It's not that terrible for the short term, really, though it takes a bit of getting used to.

i do crunches! i work out!! some of us don't build up like that!

is it way weird? do you still have lungs?

[founderinglight]

I would presume so? I haven't had any trouble breathing air, at any rate, the gills tend to close reflexively above water.

My own situation would probably qualify as 'way weird,' but that's more a function of this specific form, I think. I have learned a great deal about octopus anatomy firsthand in a way I never expected.

do you have a mouth down in your........................you kno???

[founderinglight]

Thank goodness, no.

But as it turns out, octopuses taste everything they touch.

It is alternately interesting and terrible and generally very overwhelming.

[photoshooter]

ewww. there can't be that many good things to taste down there.

[founderinglight]

The water itself is fine for the most part. It's not quite the same as mouth-tasting. Other people and things are pretty interesting, though.

[photoshooter]

did you TELL them you were tasting them????

[founderinglight]

The one I did intentionally, yes.

The other is my brother in law after an accidental collision and I am not risking my life touching that entire nest of hornets.

brother in law??????

[founderinglight]

Trust me, I was as surprised as you are.

They're rather tooth-rotting together, actually.
