Awful Jokes Made Up By Me #1

A pirate is looking for somewhere to bury his treasure, and he finds a cave on a lone island.

However the cave is guarded by an octopus with a cleaning fetish. Using the feather-dusters left by an early 19th C 'How Clean Is Your Cave Mr Selkirk' docu-novel writer, it mercilessly prods and pokes at the pirate almost forcing him to collapse with giggles.

Nevertheless he fights on, cutlass flashing, until all eight of the octopuses arms, with their attendant feather dusters, lie, severed.

But then just as he thinks he's won, two more feather dusters fly up from nowhere, and deftly make him laugh so much he drops his cutlass. Instantly the octopus - suprisingly fast on its eight stumps - gobbles him up.

How is this possible?

Well you see octopuses may have 8 arms, but they have 10 tickles.
