This is a normal post There's no way
an elephant would fit in that pan.

I'm a bit conflicted about that vid- if someone hit a kitten on the work surface then stuck it in a pan of boiling water it wouldn't go down very well. But its ok for Geoffrey the crab? Hmm.....

This is a normal post it is totally ok
in my mind, anyway, it's justified as i'm working with crabs for my dissertation project and the fuckers are so bloody uncooperative they've put my work back by 4 months.

Boil the fuckers!

This is a normal post I agree
If you're going to eat something, you shouldn't be personnifying it, befriending it, cajoling about it and then both laugh and have pity on the thing you're cooking the bugger.

Either keep it as a pet or eat it. I think she was being a little immature about the whole thing tbh.

This is a normal post Are you serious?
I strongly doubt they were actually attached to it. Not many people who have pet crabs would keep them in the bath I wouldnt imagine. Also, do you think that the crab was being cajoled? Surely that would imply it understood people?

This is a normal post Attachment is probably too strong a word
She definitely had sympathy for it though. That and it came accross that she was first having fun with it, and then was concerned that it wasn't being stunned properly.
If that's not the case then I'm sure the mixed responses wouldn't exist, but they do, so there's obviously something slightly amiss here

This is a normal post Christ on a bike
If you're going to cook live seafood:

1. Learn how to kill or stun it properly first.
(hint - twatting it on a work surface is not the way i'd do it) A sharp knife through the back of it's head immediately prior to cooking will do it, on a lobster there's even a handy cross type thing to aim at.

2. Don't play with it or coo at it. At least do it the service of leaving it be, you are about to boil it and eat its bits so I reckon that'll do it on the pissing off stakes

3. Put it in the freezer for about 10 mins prior to cooking, at least then it will be asleep and won't feel the searing, boiling water if you fuck up section 1, ehich is easily done

4. GET YOUR TEN QUID OUT FOR A PAN BIG ENOUGH TO FIT THE FUCKER IN FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS FLUFFY

That concludes Boyo81's crab cooking rant. Thanks for tuning in. Next time, skinning kittens.

5. Don't bother, crabs are more trouble than they are worth.

This is a normal post Any chance you can let me know about the skinning of kittens now?
I doubt they'll be unconscious for much longer.

Ta.

This is a normal post I'll give you a hint
It starts by bashing them on a work surface and getting your missus to squeal about it a bit.

This is a normal post I'd rather the rest of the video looked like the screencap
and it was either a crab continuously leaping at the cameraperson or just chilling and levitating in its kitchen.
