B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for December 04, 2012

Spell-check on steroids, with no formal education.

Ah, yes. Another DYAC reference.

I love the Maison de Pulpo in La Coruna.

That is the reason I have T9 turned off on my phone.

Hey, wasn’t that a hangout in Santa Monica back in the 60’s?

Neither do I. Hope some kind “smart” reader will explain.

Maybe it’s just an invitation for calimari

If that is Clumsy Carp at the blanket’ well he is the resident ichtheologist. Probably uses octopi as landmarks all the time.

Tonto,you idiot,I said “posse” Sorry,Old Lone Ranger joke.

I think we all understand the “autocorrect” of today’s technology. []Apparently, the joke is somehow wrapped up in “octopus” – and nobody yet has sufficiently explained.[]First, I thought “Octoberfest” – but that doesn’t make sense in December. (Besides, it would properly be “Oktoberfest”!)[]I would appreciate somebody’s explanation (possibly the cartoonist?) because this is total nonsense as it exists.

Spend enough time with Google and you can come up with something!“Meet me at the octogon” was the original message before auto correct! (I’m guessing.)
