Sometimes, the jokes just write themselves:
“An octopus got the joyride of its life last week when it somehow became stuck on the belly of a bottlenose dolphin in the Ionian Sea. More specifically, the tentacled sea creature had a seat on the dolphin’s genital slit.”
Where do we begin?
- Was the octopus new and just trying to be friendly or was this a case of “Grab ’em by the gonads and hold on until you get your way”?
- What exactly was going through the dolphin’s head when it first felt an octopus grabbing onto its naughty bits?
- How exactly does a dolphin get an octopus off its naughty bits? This might be one of the best arguments for the utility of an opposable thumb I’ve ever seen.
- If we assume this was a male dolphin, will he always be known as Old Octopus Sack? Come on, guys won’t let this one go for anything.
This is definitely not something I expect to see in The Little Mermaid IV: The Search for Menopause.

Dolphins are no slouches in the intelligence department, either. They live in complex social groups, and their unique whistles may tell other pods of dolphins exactly who they are.
…reported a bottle nose dolphin executing back-flips while whistling “The Star Spangled Banner” as performed by the late Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock.
