Presenting.... the cuttlefish crew!

Sep 29, 2005 16:25

I thought it was about time I introduced you to my buddies in the lab. The are the liveliest bunch of senior citizens you'd ever encounter. Just ask brids_owlwoman. They must be well over 80 in human years. But they seem to be in good spirits.

Without further ado, and in alphabetical order so as to show no favoritism...

Yes, they're very stylish, aren't they dahling

*lol*

Hooray! λ!

(I'd say more, but I'm busy grading. Bah!)

neko_no_kioku September 29 2005, 22:07:30 UTC

WorkWorkWork! Is that all you grad students do?!

Oh, wait, I'm a grad student. I guess I should get my butt to work as well. *sigh* But a new game just came in the mail... *longing glance*

Also, if you click on that link, you'll see why I was giggling so much during that one scene with Fry and Edna in "Why Must I Be A Crustacean in Love"

Heh, yeah, I saw. I'm sure the Futurama writers intended that.

Neat-o! Wow... those are some great photos.
I love reading you describing their distinct personalities. :o)

*smooches and bearhugs*
~Orm.

p.s. - Does this mean that you don't eat calamari? ;o)

*tears* Why does everyone ask me that?

No, I don't eat calamari, or octopus, or sepia (which is cuttlefish, as the Spanish call it)! That's like asking someone, do you eat cat? How can you possibly eat such beautiful, intelligent creatures?

And let me introduce you to a "little" guy known as the Humboldt squid whom you can think of the next time you see calamari >;) Let's see someone try and drizzle some lemon juice over him *snicker*

ormolu September 30 2005, 16:59:07 UTC

Eep! :o\ I'm sorry, sweetie. The last thing I'd ever want to do is offend you... :o(

No, I wouldn't eat cat. I can't even eat veal or lamb, for that matter. And then I feel like a hypocritical carnivore. :o\ If I could swing it, I'd become a vegetarian, but gads, it's taken me so long to get to this point of my fruit/veggie eating repertoire. Maybe, someday in the future.

Then again, I have a dear friend who's a big time fisherman/hunter. He holds animals in the highest regard, but finds them very tasty as well. So... I try not to assume anything about a person's eating habits.

But I would *never* intentionally hurt your feelings, love. :o(
*hugs and nuzzles*

ormolu September 30 2005, 17:02:36 UTC

Oh! And my fisherman/hunter-friend told me a story about how recently he tangled with an octopus that he had caught by mistake. It got him pretty good with its jagged suckers. <--I'm sure there's a better term for that, I'm just a layperson. ;o)

*hugs from afar*
