For me, both plural and singular of octopus is /octopockles/, since Pogo, as in, /HALP! Octopockles got me!/ when a baby one is on Albert's head. Deer visible from the road are dumbies, pronounced DUM-bees. Horses visible from the road are hoses.

Also, I don't mean to be picky but the pie is Cthulhu.

Since the word 'octupus' is actually from the Greek 'oktōpous', not Latin, the correct plural should be 'octopodes'.

I think this is a Cthulu. But what's the plural of Cthulu? Cthulu. Cthulus. Cthulugies. Cthuluians. Cthuluites. Cthului. Cthulodes. OMG humanity is doomed with just one?
