A little Permethrin, Lindane, or Malathion, and everything'll be all better. And for itching, there's Benadryl.

kitties and cats step aside.

Huge Crab is the new web 2.0 buzz word. For this reason, investors have approached hugecrab.com and expressed interest in buying, and or developing hugecrab.com for their own motives. Currently Hugecrab.com is no longer accepting applicants for our second round of funding. However, we encourage investors to stay tuned, as we may require more liquidity at any moment.


Oh, go fuck yourself.

Coconut crabs are insane. These are crabs that can husk a fucking coconut with their claws. Have you ever tried to husk a coconut? You can't. It's like an adamantium skeleton.

I'm pretty sure a coconut crab could rip your heart out and show it to you before you died, if it so desired.

Shoot - that didn't work the way I thought it would...

As is the case with human conflicts, Huge Crab conflicts call for the use of ninjas as well. Then the picture of the crab pirate.

I'm not sure which side to blame, personally.

Children sometimes play with coconut crabs by placing some wet grass at an angle on a palm tree that contains a coconut crab. When the animal climbs down, it believes the grass is the ground, releases its grip on the tree, and subsequently falls.

I dunno. I think tiny crabs - scuttling and crawling on a sleeper's face - are about 20x freakier than Huge Crab. I mean, you can eat Huge Crab - with tiny crabs you can only weep as they make homes in your nostrils.

face? if by nostril you mean urethra, i agree: *shudder*.

from a former friend of mine:

how do you get rid of crabs?

-shave half your pubes (they'll flee to the other side to take cover, unwittingly concentrating themselves into an easy target)
-set fire to the other half of your pubes
-as they run, screaming their tiny crab screams, out of the flaming pube conflagration, stab them with an icepick.

(a few years later, we decided than an upholstery needle was probably more appropriate)

I see pictures of people holding Huge Crab.

My gut reaction, if I was near Huge Crab, would not be to hold it, but to kill it with the deadliest weapon available.

I think this gives me an evolutionary advantage.

The worst thing about crabs is that they’re crabs. The best thing about crabs is that they’re good to eat.

Crabs are nature’s Republicans.

My dive buddies and I used to have a schlooper that we used to catch little creatures for our marine aquarium. We schlooped everything from a small octopus, that climbed out one night never to be seen again, to pinky sized barracudas. As long as everybody had plenty to eat, they all pretty much got along... except for the crabs.

Then a nickel sized blue-crab killed everything, even the barracudas. The hermit crabs held out for awhile, but The Crab got them too. No matter how much we fed, it rushed around, grabbing every scrap of food, all the time watching for the hermit’s poking a claw or two out of their shells to get a scrap or two, so it could ravage them.

I was in a local vintage/antique store last month, and they were playing a record they found called A Giant Crab Comes Forth. Very psychedelic, man.

So, does this put the whole huge crab thing to rest now, or do I have to see this in various forms for the next six months? 'Cause frankly man, I'm fucking over the fucking huge crabs.
