Do octopi feel remorse for tentacle porn?

[Jackalope]

Plural of "octopus" is not "octopi". Where do people get this nonsense from? "Octopus" is a Greek word (ὀκτώπους), not a Latin one (where plural of "-us" nouns is mostly formed with "-i"), and the Greek plural is "octopodes" (ὀκτώποδες). In English, the plural of "octopus" should probably be "octopuses", or maybe "octopodes", but certainly not "octopi".

"Octopus" isn't Greek, it's English bastardized from the Greek "oktopous". The worst that you can say about "octopi" is that it's misconceived, but then so is the whole English language.

So the correct plural of "octopus" is "octopi". Because it's the common usage and, more importantly, it pisses off the pedanticists.

I use "octopodes" because the octopuses camp is full of hopeless wankers.

People expecting consistency out of English are amusing.
