awesome. after doing research they actually have 8 leg-things and 2 large tentacles.

Most have eight arms and two tentacles, and one species has ten identical tentacles.
For the future.

Squid – just in case you need a visual.

Quick, how many testicles does a squid have? Let’s see you Google that. :-)

@evelyn… – One. Male squid have a single large testis and a spermatophoric gland and sac.

Sorry but I’m a malacologist and could not resist.

So remember to spay and neuter your squids.

Unless you want enough to make calamari.

I must be tired, I just read that as ” How many testicles does a squid have? ”
But then again that could be a tantalizing question?
It made me laugh so I’m ok down here in sunny Perth, Western Australia…

@mij – actually part of this question is exactly as you read it.

I don’t pretend to be an artist, but I once doodled a robo-squid. I gave him 5 tentacles. Does that help?

By the way, welcome to the collective @funkyfest

@Darwin, no need to apologize, you gave a scientific answer to an off-the-cuff smart ass question, that’s why I like you so much, you educate me.

Darwin's avatar

@evelyn (do you mind if I call you evelyn? I feel as if we have gotten to know each other.) – I do try to both educate and be educated on a daily basis. Glad I was successful in at least half of my daily goal.

@Darwin just call me Zee, because Evelyn is a girl’s name, and I am a dude. Wait, a guy, as dude is slang for a horses penis. I am definitely NOT one of those; I am more of a horses ass. :-)

@evelyns_pet_zebra – Evelyn Waugh was a girl?
