Octocat
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Octocat is an animated series on YouTube. It began when the first video was spawned on March 13 2008, by a at least 100 years year-old GOD named Randy Peters. His fantastic animation depicted the life-long struggle of Octocat, a red cat with eight tentacles, on his quest to find his parents. Since then, he has created a sequel and promises to make more. It is rumored that Octocat was born from the semen of Moot himself, but we all know that isn't true.

[edit] The Search for Octocat's Parents
Octocat is probably most famous for his quest to find his parents. He lost them at least 100 years ago (but more likely over 9000 years) and now spends the rest of his days looking.

[edit] Octocat's creation story
It is debated as to what extent Octocat took part in the History of the Universe, as during the film clip (13-17 seconds) there are clear references to Pandora's box where all the evil was let out and made Octocat run away in fear. There are also links to the creation of the sabbath day.
[edit] Anonymous' Connections with Octocat
On the evening of March 13 2008, Anon was rolling around in its own urine and excrement as usual. However, this day, a few Anon discovered the Octocat video on YouTube in all of its shittyness awesome goodness. Figuring that it was better than simply sitting around and letting /b/ rot away with newfaggotry, they trolled the video and spammed 5-star ratings and favorites. The video very quickly gained honors and popularity, and it continues to rise at the moment. Many Anonymous consider Octocat to be the chemo that's curing /b/ and Oldfags rejoice at the original lulz-worthy content. Needless to say, the work was received very well.

[edit] Faggotry Kicks In
After the many dumbass commenters that plague YouTube discovered the almighty success that Octocat was getting, they began to spam 1-star comments, resulting in many BAWWWWWS. Typical JewTube users only like gays and camwhores, anything original will get down-voted. However, this also prompted the Anons of /b/ to double the favoriting and 5-staring, as well as downvoting the top videos in order to bring Octocat to the top. You can help them by rating the video 5 stars and putting it in your favorites. You can also digg it by clicking here.
[edit] Controversy
There is currently controversy over whether to include or not Octocat's tail as one of his 8 legs. Early renditions show Octocat with anywhere from 5 legs + tail, to 8 legs + tail (In the famous "screaming"-scene he has 9 legs). The confusion is evident in recent fan art, where there is conflict amongst artists of whether Octocat should have 8 extremities or 9 extremities in total.
[edit] Octocat Adventure 2
Compelled by the cheers of Anons everywhere, Randy Peters made a sequel to the original Octocat video. Its name, eternally etched into the annals of time, was Octocat Adventure 2. It was posted on his YouTube account on March 27, 2008. In this new video, Octocat cries about missing his parents and continues to find him. He mumbles to himself and walks over a fence, which gets bigger and scares him. He runs away. He then finds 3 doors, one with a screaming self inside, another with a staring self inside and a third with another screaming self inside. He finally opens the second door again and finds a gem thingy. The sign over it says "Dont touch! for parents". After he touches it, there's flashing lights and he freaks out. The movie then ends suddenly, leaving the touched viewer to contemplate the madness.

[edit] The Decline Pinnacle of the series: Octocat Adventure 3
Many fans weren't were totally as impressed with Octocat Adventure 2 as they had been with the original. They voiced concerns about this, to which Randy Peters eventually created Octocat Adventure 3. In this adventure, Octocat finds himself in a strange world after touching the colored diamond in Octocat 2. He walks over to a cliff, and beholds a floating head worthy of a goya painting. He runs away and finds some "delicious" chicken lying around uneaten. Finally he stumbles upon a gaping vag in the ground, from which springs a giant blue worm. The worm informs Octocat that he doesn't have any parents. Octocat smashes his fucking brains in. Truly epic.

[edit] Octocat Adventure 4
After a three month holiday, Randy Peters showed the world that his talent was still running strong. On the fourth of july 2008, Octocat 4 was released, and was met with raving critics. In this instalment Peters drives away from the high levels of surrealism that he so carefully reached in the first three adventures, and delves farther into the mind of our young hero. Octocat Adverture 4 shows a more raw, down to earth, Octocat, struggling with his newearned status as a muderer. He seeks the solitude of the desert, and after a long journey of katharsis, he even gets rejected by his parents. This leads to the breakdown of Octocat, leaving him with a deep feeling of despair, and nihilism. It is obvious that Peters has taken the time to mature in his three months of leave, and we should see Octocat 4 as the beginning of a new era in te career of this young filmmaker.
