I only say octopodes. It makes them feel like a mythical creature

This is the drama I come to the internet for. Team Octopi, because I’m a pretentious c*nt. But only because I didn’t know Octopedes. That’s even more prententious so I am now adopting it and acting like I always knew. Will throw in Greek facts as reasons. I upped my game today.

If it’s two octopi, the plural would be hexadecapus

One of my favorite jokes was to pretend not to know how to pronounce "octopodes" so my colleagues would correct me, allowing me to respond with "octopoDEEZ NUTZ"

Marty Danielson :
You've discussed the etymological, prescriptive, and descriptive approaches. However, you seem to be ignoring social media conventions, which require the plural to be "octopodes" so that the user can say "Octopodes nuts!" (I'm so sorry I'm like this.)
