Invertebratwurst

Invertebrate.
Bratwurst.
Invertebratwurst.

A sausage made from the meat of spineless creatures, as opposed to pig or cow.*

Sure, squidwurst may take some preparation to get that inky taste out, but bratworm is already in the exact right shape.

Disgusting.
Stingray.**
Disgustingray.


* Animals with a real backbone.
Courageous, upstanding animals.

Pigs especially.
Have you read "Animal Farm" or "The Three Little Pigs"?
They even give other animals what for.

Porky.
Kick-Ass.
Porkyck-Ass.


** Rays are actually vertebrates.
I thought I could put one by you, anonymous public, but I cannot.
Because what is the internet about, if not being straightforward with one another?***

Honesty.
Stipulation.
Honestipulation.


*** Answers may include anything from "internet dating" to "Wikipedia" to "Dateline pedophile stings" to "all three at once."
(Read about my latest dating disaster and trip to jail on Wikipedia.)

Wikipedia.
Pedophilia.

Octopushups

Octopus.
Push-ups.
Octopushups.

The smartest creature of the invertebrates knows how important working out can be to a healthy, happy, and productive life.

Content.
Tentacle.
Contentacle.

Octopuses (or octopi, or octopodes*) also have no skeletons.
So no secrets lurking in their sea closets.
(Generally speaking, they don't have closets either. So they're all out about their sexualities.)

Having no skeltons also makes for one less Halloween decoration they have to put up.

Scary.
Wreath.
Scareath.

That's what they put up instead.


* Too bad there aren't 8 plurals.
Well, now there can be:

Octoposse.
Octopussim.
Octopeese.
Octopies.
Octoplurals.
