Listen, first they'll mandate some kind of "leathal injection" nonsense so the lobster "just drifts off to sleep", and before long they'll have the vote.

Actually, the lobsters are getting off easy. They're still kickin'. It's the tilapia and salmon that are getting screwed. The tilapia have been hacked to pieces, and the wild salmon have been mushed up with spinach and feta cheese and turned into burgers.

LOLOL!

I think it was Alton Brown who assuaged his audiences trepridation about boiling them by telling them not to worry about it as they were the cockroaches of the sea!

In colonial Boston a law was passed to limit how many times a week servants could be fed lobster.

Um, Lobsters do have nerves and do feel pain. They just don't react to temperature-based pain the way that you do (aversion response).

No problem. I'll get mine at Fairway. They were cheap when I got them a couple of weeks ago. And they were pretty good, too. I only freaked out a little at keeping them fresh for the rest of the day until we were ready for them.

And it was a lot cheaper than mail-order -- the postage is as expensive as the lobsters themselves.

"Listen, first they'll mandate some kind of "leathal injection" nonsense so the lobster "just drifts off to sleep", and before long they'll have the vote."

And really shouldn't a person be able to marry a lobster and have all the same benefits as other couples. After all who are we to judge?
