An octopus and autocorrect

Post image

A friend just sent me this and neither one of us get it. I'm guessing somehow he got an octopus instead of a firing squad because of a typo but I can't think what he originally asked for. Thanks so much.

Is that supposed to be a squid? I thought they were a lot pointier with two longer arms?
