That was well funny ! It is a bloke, isn't it ? Cuz peepes in the office reckon it is a woman. I swear blind it is a bloke, albeit squeling like a schoolgirl.
Also, they seem to believe that it is a crab as well. God, can you tell I work with a bunch of techies or what ? Can't just enjoy the mpeg, have to dissect it and analyse it in everyway !!!
Anyway, my wife won a cooking session with Anthony Warrel Thompson (UK TV chef) and she had to boil a lobster. He put his lobster in the pot and started talking. The wife was stood next to the pot and then she screamed and started backing off. He asked her, "What on earth was the matter with her", and she replied that the lobster was escaping as it was climbing out of the pan, and it looked like it was building up courage to attack her in it's anger !!!

Yeah, they are supposed to make a high pitched "screaming" noise that is supposed to not actually be screaming, but the air escaping from their body (shell / carcass / Missy please help me, you have a larger vocabulary than me !!! )
Anyway, I say bollox to that. I know I'd scream like fook if you put me in a pan of boiling water, so I expect a lobster, regardless of whether it actually can or not, would scream it's little balls off !!!
Why not, that one can sing and talk in The Water Babies, and that's real, right ?

LMAO!!!!! I understand that reaction...i only like lobsters when they are red...
When i was a kid, my father received one day a big gift, a card box full of lettuce, that looked like a weird gift..well..after opening it, my mother started yelling..under the lettuce there was like a 100 crabs..alive..and fucking fast once out of the box...we were freaked...the first thing we saw was a pair of big black claws coming out of the lettuce!!!!
Have you ever sit and eat just boiled crabs with white wine?? try it one day..is one of life simplest delights....trick: a few drops of tabasco on the water where you're boiling them...along with salt, pepper, and onion...the tabasco is the nice touch...is not spicy btw
