Animals That Should Have Their Own Picture Books - Part... Something Or Other

No. It is not a hoax. I know it looks like it's sticking out its tongue at you. I know it looks like an Anime sidekick. But I'm afraid that it's all too real. It's an octopus of the genus Grimpoteuthis. We'll call him grimpy for short. We'll give him a complex and anti-social attitudes. We'll paint him purple and call him Grimace. He will, in short, be a hit.
