Last weekend I was at the beach just hanging out and reading. I waded into the river for a bit too cool off and all of a sudden I hear a little voice behind me:
"Don't go too far! The octopus will get you!"
I turned around to see a 6ish-year-old girl standing on the shore.
"I don't think there are any octopi in river."
"Yes there are. My mom said so!"
Actually, your mom just doesn't want YOU out in the river. And she came up with a clever way to keep you out :) Technically it's a lie, but rather the kid believe that octopi are freshwater creatures then get pulled under by the current!
I later came to find that the little girl had a pet, a dead fish by the name of Sunflower.
