"It seems like it's demeaning to the lobsters ...."

How in the hell can a lobster be demeaned?

[Phantom Lord]

So, it is wrong to attempt and grab your own lobster with a crane game, but there is no problem with having someone reach in with their hand and grab one 100% of the time, then cook it. Or to go to the grocery store and say "I'll take that one" to the man behind the fish counter, take the lobster home and cook it yourself.

Oh, and just to tweek some of you, a lobster is an aquatic cockroach.

I am pro-lobster, with drawn butter. Or on a roll. Or in salad. Or, heck just about anyway you want to cook them.

Sure do taste good to be cock roaches. I'd take a chance to get a lobster dinner for $2.00

Next we'll find Photos in the Boston Globe showing the Lobster with a Glow Stick up it's arse with some Military Babe menacing it with a German Shepard!~}

[Brainhose]

No, No, No, You're wrong! What you'll see in the Globe is a man in camouflage pretending to rape a lobster. They'll put that on the front page. :)

I know it's un-pc to say, but I find that hilarious.

Actually, they are related to scorpions.

"It seems like it's demeaning to the lobsters, which I hate," said Stan Cobb, a professor of marine biology and a crustacean expert at the University of Rhode Island.

Well at least they didn't throw panties on the lobster's head. Which gives me a great idea for a new carnival game. I could make millions.
