First reach down and rip its dick off. Then find the third and fourth segments of the shell, slide your two fingers between them, then go to the underbelly and jam hard up. This will make it easy for you to extract the lobster's small lungs. Now the lobster can only breathe through its gills, so you should put it in liquid. I suggest apple cider vinegar, slowly giving it chemical burns. The eyes of the lobster will shrivel and dry out, as it lets out pathetic tiny squeaks of horror. As the acid eats away at the shell, the brain of the animal will begin to pickle. At this point, start screaming at the lobster, "No one ever fucking loved you, you little shit. You're a fat stupid bug. Your children are ashamed at you." Flick the top of his head with your finger, in an annoying way. Poke toothpicks into its face. Eventually, you will see the beast begin to transition to the afterlife. This is when you should start burning it directly with a lighter, so it can get used to the Hell it's going to.

Jesus. If true, poor little lobster guys. I went to Marseille once and went to some fancy restaurant by the harbour where they were famous for their bouillabaisse. It was like a whole thing where they bring out different dishes before the soup or whatever. Anyway, they then bring out a platter of shellfish they want to put in the soup that we have to approve or something. All kinds of shellfish and this poor looking bastard live lobster on top. Looked at my gf and could see she was thinking the exact same thing as me. Said to the guy “that’s a nice looking lobster mate, where is that from, did you fish it out of there?” pointing to the harbour. He grins and nods yes, from there. So I picked it straight up off the platter he was holding, got up and walked over to the harbour edge and chucked it in. He then goes, this fucking frog, “you must pay! you must pay!” and I said, not skipping a beat, “I’ll pay for it, mate, but that’s how me and my missus like our lobster done”. Paid for the whole meal which was otherwise great (no poor bastard boiled alive lobster needed), and left. Got the best head of my life that night. Thanks based little lobster guy. Hope you made it.

They actually cook best on the BBQ. Have them split & cleaned. Place them on the grille with the claws on low/med heat & the tails on med/high. Flip every few minutes. Usually 10-12 minutes depending on the size.

No, eating it while it is alive, riping off claws, legs and tails and eating it in front of it while it watches in agony and terror as you bite and chew it's flesh out of it's carapace is the true height of degeneracy. Bonus points if you do it while the others are in a glass jar watching in horror as their friends get picked one by one to undergo this terrible fate, knowing fully well that the same will happen to them soon.

No lol.

See, people who have empathy are naturally fantastic liars. The more empathy you have, the better you are able to lie. Lying effectively means you need to be able to read other people's expressions and emotional responses. And you can only do this if you have either normal or high levels of empathy. I've got every job I've ever applied for because all I need to do is walk into the interview and I can literally, by the second, read every single thought the interviewer is expressing before they even say a word. I modulate my responses and adapt to their every need because I know exactly how they feel. I can fuck any girl I want because I'm able to relate to whatever her thing is at the same level she experiences it, and while I'll never be hurtful, I'm able to shift my behavior to what's better for her anyway. Life is a game amirite. The problem with idiotic little edgelords like you is you've bought the whole Hollywood 'pscychopath' trope thinking it makes you so kewl when, in fact, it just goes to show how subpar you truly are. Most 'psychopaths' in films are based on variations of Bundy and that guy only coasted so far as he did because the normal people around him (who, like most human beings, have natural levels of empathy and yet sadly consider them irrelevant) let him do so.

In truth, psychopaths generally score terribly on lying tests. Most people around them report how they "told the strangest lies", or "he was nice but always said the most fanciful things". And etc. Because, again, they don't trust their natural empathy alarm system. It's not just some coincidence. Having high levels of empathy means you are not only able to navigate and conquer all the things you want in life, it means you're naturally able to deal with the antithesis of a human being: shit like you and all the other 'psychopaths'.

You're not 'better' or more 'superior' - you're just simply incapable or afraid of being an actual based human being.

Because they taste good? I do not agree with the whole concept of keeping large swathes of lobsters in a small tank. The best lobster I've ever had was fresh from the ocean, bunch of Cubans went diving for them, and cooked right there on the beach.

It’s a bug. You’re not functional or rational by extending human empathy toward a bug. In fact, you’re so steeped in metaphysical mumbo jumbo you don’t even know what you’re saying. “I eat lobster cause they’re tasty” is as rational and logical as “I don’t eat lobster cause i find their preparation cruel”. Morality is a personal attitude, the only time it’s anything else concerns two or more people in a community (then it’s called ethics). Animals are resources to us. The only reason to humanely raise and kill animals if it that gives us a tastier ir healthier end product, which is why health nuts and hipsters care about such things as grass fed beef or cage free eggs. In the last several thousands of years of history, to extend human ethics to animals you had to have been religious, that is, caught up in a non material metaphysics (i.e “retarded”). Secular extensions of human ethics to animals are in fact illogical, ahistorical, and all based on subjective effects of one’s empathy, which are developed from childhood experiences.
