Some people don't like it, but I think it's great. Plus, they sell soft serve ice cream! What's not to like?!

Well of course some people don't like it.  It's weird and different, and some people just can't deal with weird and different.

Looks pretty cool to me, though.

This is from Jerry Coyne's Why Evolution is True, rather than PZ's blog.  It is a close relative of our little friend the blue ring octopus.  This one is named, somewhat unoriginally, the greater blue ring octopus.
