Not only does that octopus look drunk. It looks like an AGGRESSIVE drunk. It's holding up its fists in a "Come and get a taste of these knuckles, punk!" kind of way. I tried using ChatGPT's Vision to ask the question, but ChatGPT simply returned a cowering-in-fear emoji and said "Please, sir, tell that octopus I don't want any trouble. Don't let him hurt me!
So clearly, there are some limits to what you can use modern large language models for.
I know there's a type of person who gets belligerent when they drink, but I can state with some certainty that the last thing I wanted any time I was hammered was a confrontation. Mischief, sure! A fight, though? Ugh!
I had a question this weekend I can’t find an answer for… or at least haven’t yet. A colossal squid has eyes up to 12” in diameter, does that mean a human could fit their head in its eye socket? Heads aren’t perfectly round, but you’d think so. However, I can only find how big the eyes are across, not any indication of them being perfectly round. So I don’t know how deep the socket is.
I know this is a weird question, and I have no excuse for it, but now I’m kind of invested in the answer.🤷♀️
Octopi are the assholes of the sea. They randomly punch passing fish, just so that word gets out not to swim too close to the octopus.
“In new proof that 2020 has been a crappy year basically everywhere, scientists have captured video evidence of octopuses randomly punching at fish, possibly for no reason other than being spiteful.”
Octopi can't hold their liquor- noted.
How dare you not mention Ask Jeeves or Alta Vista?! Will we ever find the answer for what causes you to be so impudent?!🤣
I asked them both every question I could think of back in the 90s!
Note: I almost pointed out that these tools were almost 30 years old, but I'm not ready for that yet.
Ask Jeeves definitely had the best mascot.
Lycos and Webcrawler both had the most goth names.
Jeeves was THE BEST!!!

That's how you know you're not an octopus!
Appropriately, the first time I saw "drunk octopus wants to fight" was in a bar bathroom in the Fan. I hope Richmond is still staying classy.
There's a non-zero chance this was the first one I saw, too!

I ran this by Gemini and ChatGPT, and it thinks you can do it, but it'll be tight.
My brother and I talked about this many times during the late 80s and early 90s. “We don’t have to wonder anymore?!?”
Not the end of curiosity—as you’ve said so well. ❤️
There's never been a more rewarding time to be curious.

There are always things that there are no answers to. But even they they leave clues if you know where to look for them.
Hmmm... another of life's puzzles...
Let's not forget the Dewey Decimal System!
Long live Lewy! Hey! What do you mean he died?
What a great movie, and I can totally see that scene in my mind's eye!
