The day people warn their children, “look out for the Humboldt squid” instead of “look out for sharks”, is going to be one to remember. How come the ocean gets the really scary animals?

Isn’t it a wonderful story? I think the scene with the attack on the diver reads exactly like a sex scene. “He dug his fingers into its clammy body…” It’s downright torrid.

Any scene that ends with, “Then it suddenly let go, but made off with his compression meter.” is totally about sex.
Frankly, the whole ‘attacked by a pack (gaggle? murder?) of squids’ still has me eying the ocean somewhat warily.
