Daily Reminder - How To Put An Octopus To Sleep?

What kind of maniacs actually care about putting octopus to sleep? What is the point? The only reason to knock someone out is so they don't feel pain during a medical procedure. I WANT the cephalopod to suffer pain. In fact, why bother with the gas? Just start slicing and to stop until the pieces stop twitching. The only thing I need to experiment with is how much pressurized air to inject into their bodies so that they rise to the top of the ocean before exploding.

More and more, says naturalist Sy Montgomery, the  scientists who study octopuses are “convinced that these boneless, alien animals … have developed intelligence, emotions, and individual personalities.” 

 

For those of you who smile at the possibilities of communication and peace between us, let me remind you that there is only room for ONE Alpha predator on the apex of the food pyramid. I don't want an animal with intelligence or personality. Those kind of animals are THINKERS and troublemakers. They gossip and hold grudges. I know. I am exactly that kind of dangerous animal. If they know what is good for them they would just stay on the bottom of the ocean with their alien buddies and leave the ruling of the planet to the ones with the thumbs.
