Saying that White Lobsters Matter is racist.

Also, FYI, saying that All Lobsters Matter is racist.

Is it true that in Maine lobsters are just as common as hot dogs in Chicago?

Darn tootin!!!

My parents loaned me their car when I was in college to go see NY city and Boston. To thank them, we drove non-stop from Boston to Chicago with a box of live lobsters.

Mom freaked out. Dad cooked em. Great meal!!!!

There is a law in Maine that makes it illegal to feed prisoners lobster more than 4 times a week. I assume this law was enacted before modern refrigeration.

Female lobsters go free. Males are expendable. Sexist.
