Little Jack Horner
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.

Go ahead and ask for a plate of octopodes and see what you get.

It turns out that octo-pi = 3.110376.

Ahem:

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.

What is up with blogger ignoring carriage returns after you end italics? This is a new thing. An annoying thing. New and deproved.
