    Don't put an octopus on your face

    Woman Puts Octopus On Face, Ends Up In Hospital

    -
    A Washington woman's photo with an octopus not only went viral, but it also led to a serious infection after the creature bit her chin.

    Jamie Bisceglia was participating in a salmon fishing derby in Tacoma Narrows on Saturday when she realized she probably wasn't going to win that event.

    However, she saw another opportunity for glory when she spied an octopus one of her friends had caught.

    "I grabbed it off the hook and said, 'Take a picture for the photo contest,'" Bisceglia told HuffPost.

    She put the cephalopod on her face and said the tentacles covered her ears and nose.

    It was perfect for a fun photo, except when the octopus bit down on her chin.

    "[My friends] noticed my face had changed," she said.

    "We couldn't get the beak to dislodge ― it was like a prong."

    Although Bisceglia eventually freed herself from the octopus, she bled profusely for 30 minutes afterwards...

    Ohhhh that need to be noticed is a terrible thing.

    She should have known Mr Octo would be in a not so good mood being dragged up from the deep and suddenly seeing her face so close. Probably thought she was going to eat it.

    It seems some people will do anything to get 15 seconds of "fame" on the internet.

    Emphasis on "some"...And I'll leave it at that.
