Honestly, I was expecting something that looked like a squid.

What? It didn't remind you of a squid?
Now you've got me wondering what else it looks like.

Ummm.... depending on what you think that looks like to you, it looks like you may need to see your doctor?

It does appear to be a bit nicked up.

Actually, it seems more to be more of the squid than of the turgid.
