Bob claimed that Dylan said that the octo was on eggs. It sounds like when he was confronted that Dylan decided to mouth off, and Bob reported that. And we still only have Dylan’s statement that the octo wasn’t on eggs. This gets into he-said-she-said territory which would immediately get thrown out by any judge in a defamation lawsuit.

And having known Bob for 8 years, I’m going to believe his account that Dylan said that. I don’t know if Dylan was lying that the octo was on eggs just to get a rise out of Bob, or if Dylan is lying now that the octo wasn’t on eggs and it actually was.

Given that I’d be willing to bet money that Dylan pulled the octo out of the diving area and has later lied about it, I’m not all that inclined to believe him. And I suspect that if you put Bob and Dylan before any judge, who is halfway competent at spotting a bullshit artist, I know which one is going to come out on top.
