Today, I bought a live lobster to have for dinner. When my four year old daughter discovered it in the cooler, she thanked me incessantly for finally getting her a pet. She now won't let "Mr. Shelly" out of her sight. FML

After maxing out our credit card on a salt water tank, Mr. Shelly has a permanent home here with Megan, Tony, and Ansleigh Magee.

That is adorable. It sucks...but it's adorable

"What's for dinner mommy?" *holds up knife and smiles* "Mr. Shelly."

My mom told me once that when you put the lobster in the pot of boiling water it screams.

Incorrect, it's just the air escaping the shell. Lobsters can't scream. Besides, it's supposed to kill them instantly.

Well, lobsters technically live forever, or until someone eats them.

Cute but lobsters aren't that friendly. Perhaps explain to her it is not a permanent pet (don't tell her you planned to eat it), and you probably want to give it to someone else to eat it. Hey, its possible she will recognize it when its dead and on a plate! Get her a fish instead! You could even let her pick the fish out. Bet that would make her happy.

Sweety Mr.Shelly want to get in the hot tub. :)
