ARE YOU SERIOUSLY WORRIED ABOUT OFFENDING ME OVER LAUGHING AT MY DUMB CRAB THAT WAS BESTED BY AN INANIMATE OBJECT?

No. It was that you filmed it at all. :buddy:

Cutest case of crabs I've ever caught! I found this lil' snipper either in the Caribbean or Western Africa(It was from 2010 I don't remember):



Your childhood was traumatic, i see that there was a giant upheaval, perhaps your parents divorced?
Then another life changing event in your 30s. None of this drama involves your love life.

You will move or travel often, and live a long time from what I can see.

Fulfilling. These lesser creatures are at my mercy. Maybe I'll forget to water them - BAM! Drought. Maybe I overwater them - BAM! Flooding. Maybe I leave for vacation and forget to leave enough food - BAM! Famine. Maybe I introduce something into the tank that they have no natural biological resistance to - BAM! Pestilence. Maybe I leave the lid open and the kitties waste no time - BAM! Predators.

I can't bring myself to purchase live crab anymore. Everyone just casually steams them alive, but all I can think about is hearing them becoming more and more frantic as the temperature rises, the scratching sounds inside the pot getting noisier, and then almost all at once, silence, as steam gently billows out of the pot lid. :smith:

This is a great post.

Ya I was surprised to see a GRAPHIC warning about crabs????wtf.

I can't do it. Saw them on the conveyor belt and had to close it. Any animal death/pain ----- I pick up worms and snails off sidewalks and pitch them into the grass.

This reminds me of a family story that got told every few years by ( or on) my great-Uncle Bob. For some holiday dinner a big group went to a high-end buffet restaurant for dinner. All of us went to town on the seafood, they had crab legs, and while we ate he painstakingly picked out all the meat from a big stack of legs filling a saucer with luscious sweet meat.

When the bussers were clearing our table as we were all porking out one of them scooped up that loaded plate before he could say anything ---- and it was too late, all of his effort for naught. We sat for a while after so he could eat something, he hadn't yet.

I feel like that busser could totally be me. I made the mistake a few times of getting a bit overzealous with clearing the tables, because I didn’t want the servers to get mad about the clutter. But hell, I know a pile of crab meat when I see it so maybe I’m not even THAT dense.

I did accidentally pour coffee on the hand of the former governor of Alaska, so there’s that...

Tell me it was Palin and it burned her and I'll love you more

Need more crab in my life. You all probably do too... Here is Jojo trusting me(can't remember if I posted this or not)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DeQcVGtC6Q

Also, Jojo used to fit into shells no bigger than a ping pong ball, but now he's a big boy and still growing. And with that, his tank is too small for exercise or enrichment, so I've been letting him roam around the room, since hermit crabs normally roam freely easily up to hundreds of feet. I can't always be around to supervise, so I finally got him a little exercise machine.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVRw2OwaTIk

So is that actually something you bought? They sell hermit crab treadmills somewhere?
? And there's no risk he won't crawl on it until dangerous exhaustion?
