These bastards are some of the smartest animals in the world. I would not be surprised if they turn out to be smarter than chimps. If it was not for them dying well taking care of their eggs and not being social animals I bet they would have evolved human like intellect.
Researchers dosed an octopus with MDMA(ecstasy) and then put another octopus in a cage in the same tank. The octopus that was high was now getting interested in socializing and even tried caressing the other octopus.
They also found an octopus "town" in the ocean not long ago that had a social structure.
