Day of the Tentacles

I was pretty happy with how my quick and dirty tentacles came out last year, but now I find myself suffering from feelings of inadequacy. The proprietor of the "Primatoide Futile" blog took my basic technique and super-sized it. Really, really super-sized it.

"We decided on a length of 1.5m, plus a few dozens of centimeters wire free at the end. We made a few changes to method described in the tutorial, but it is a great and easy method to make tentacles."

Maybe I'm old fashioned, but where I grew up you didn't come into a man's house, admire his tentacles, and then build one three times larger. That's like rustling his cattle or leaving him gut-shot after a gunfight. It's just not done.

Just wait till I get my hands on some industrial cling wrap. Then you'll see what "escalation" is all about. Bwahahahahahahahahaha!
