This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff
United States
Octopi
Today, I overheard my husband talking to our 6 year-old about animals for a project. I listened, thinking it was cute, until my husband said gleefully, "Remember to say this in your project: octopuses have 8 testicles." FML

20? Oh dude... I already told you your pet octopus was a mutant. Normal ones have 8 tentacles.

I thought they had 8. Did you fuse 12 extra penis appendages onto your octopus?

You mean octopi don't have 8 testicles? So everything I learned in school is wrong. Damn American educational system.

Yes.. Or OP didn't hear it clearly when he said 'tentacles'.

His kid will grow up to be an amazing comedian, and when he does, he will tell this story. Then we can say, "saw it first on FML. Represent..."

My dad pulled something similar on me. I guess it must have been Pre-K. We were supposed to tell the rest of the class what our parents' favorite food was. My dad's is sauerkraut, but he said sourcrap. Mrs. Klaff was shocked.

Pendatik, I'm actually partial to saying "octopodes" just to watch the WTF creep up on others' faces. I think people forget that sometimes words have etymological origins, and didn't just spontaneously come into existence like some sort of linguistic lightning bolt. |the kid|

Who cares 38, did you copy and paste that off Wikipedia?

Sometimes I sit in the corner pretending I'm a carrot.

Actually, because of the root of the word, "octopuses" is correct, not "octopi".
bluehero 17
Actually, octopi isn't correct, it's octopuses or octopodes, look it up.

@8 Incorrect. "Octopus" is a term that derives from the Greek language. Only Latin words, such as "cactus," use the plural indication of "i," whilst Greek words simply add "es" to the end. Henceforth, "octopuses" is the correct term, and not "octopi."

He told his kid to say ******** on purpose because he thought it would be funny. That's what made this and FML.
