lobster

Scamming your way into a free lobster dinner is dishonest and stupid. But complaining that your lobster is bad, then finishing it, then going to a different restaurant and getting more lobster? That takes some nards, man. It's well known that restaurant owners somehow have all the time in the world to battle their horrible customers, like this lying Karen who got decimated by an owner's response.

This Twitter thread from @JUNIUS_64, about the conditional immortality of lobsters is a trip. Apparently the information shared is indeed true. So, digesting the fact that lobsters basically have a cheat code for the aging process (dying of old age), and instead die from either getting perilously squeezed in their shells or those same shells developing parasites, is fascinating. 

There's something highly unsettling about this microbiologist's deep dive into how lobsters are basically immortal sea scorpion monsters that have immortality interwoven in there DNA. 

I just want to see the 10,000-year-old lobster.
