“What’s a crayfish?

Crawfish, crawdad or as they’re called in Louisiana... Mudbugs.

Where I come from they were smaller and we called them craw daddies and used them for bait.

These people are crazy.
This happened in Minnesota almost 30 years ago.

They released the rats alongside the road just out of town.
It was early april and they were lab animals. They froze to death.

Science doesn’t appear to be her strong suit. Perhaps a major in ‘gender studies’ would be more her speed.

Crawfish used to also be popular for happy hour bar food.

“I’m being persecuted”

Typical liberal mentality......no matter what the circumstances, always the victim.....always.

That’s how you know they’re full of sht....they never take responsibility for anything they do....its always somebody else’s fault.

You are from Florida and you don’t know what a crawfish is? In season, order them by the dozen. When the waiter brings you the first dozen, put in your order for the next dozen. Repeat until full. Twist, dig the meat out of the tail, suck the head, discard the shell.

Heard of a crawfish farmer down in south Mississippi back in the day. He was near the Stennis facility. When they fired up the big rocket for a test, the ground shook, and his crawfish crop up and walked away.

This kind tears up whenever a whale beaches itself. But sees nothing wrong with killing an unborn baby in its Mothers womb in the most violent, uncaring and unfeeling manner imaginable.

You’re saying “crawfish” which is what I’m familiar with. Been to many crawfish boils.

My question was rhetorical and I wanted in pointed out that a “crayfish” or a crawfish cannot live in “the sea” where the dingbat lefty through the poor animal to “save” it. LOL.
