There are three forms of the plural of octopus; namely, octopuses, octopi, and octopodes. Currently, octopuses is the most common form in the UK as well as the US; octopodes is rare, and octopi is often objectionable.[26]I believe snag's exact point was that octopi is, in fact, objectionable.

Sat in the corner,
Eating an octopie;
He gave it a tweak,
And pulled out a beak,
And said "Really I just want to die."
I really love this one.
Unfortunately, your pun is broken. The plural is octopodes.
...BWAHAHAHAHA!
To rhyme with "pedant," no doubt.
PZ Myers is not amused.
An unadulterated string of classics.
Adultery?
On a thread for CHILDREN!
Fetch me my fainting couch. And such as.

It turns out that octo-pi = 3.110376.
