210 Octopus Puns and Jokes So Funny, They’ll Ink You Up

So, I was swimming through the sea of the internet one day (as you do), and suddenly I found myself knee-deep in octopus puns. Don’t ask how I got there—I honestly don’t even know. But let me tell you, it was totally worth it. Octopuses are already wild creatures—eight arms, big brains, shape-shifting… they’re basically the drama queens of the ocean. So naturally, the puns? Chef’s kiss.

I started collecting them like they were rare seashells, and before I knew it, I had a whole reef of Octopus Puns and Jokes ready to be shared. Some are clever, some are just ridiculous, and a few will make you question my sanity (in the best way).

If you’re in the mood to laugh, groan, or roll your eyes into next week, you’re in the right place. Just don’t blame me if you start telling these to strangers. I warned you.

Why I’m Obsessed with Octopus Puns and Jokes

Look, I don’t know what it says about me that I laugh way too hard at tentacle jokes—but here we are. There’s just something about the wordplay that feels so… satisfish-ing. (Okay, I’ll stop. For now.)

Octopus puns hit differently. Maybe it’s because octopuses are already weird in the best way. They’re not trying to be funny, they just are. That makes them perfect pun material. I started slipping them into everyday convos, and now my friends refuse to take me to the aquarium. Their loss.

So, if you’re like me and think puns are an art form, you’re about to get totally tentickled. And I promise—no repeats, no boring ones, and I even tossed in a seahorse pun along the way. Let’s get kraken.
