Crab (Word of the Day)


Crab (Word of the Day)

            When I first heard the phrase “crabs in a barrel”, I imagined a big deep barrel. What is truly amazing is how far from fact that really is. Go to any store that sells live crabs and look. Go now. I’ll wait…



(You can probably save time and YouTube it…)


            Notice the walls keeping the crabs inside are not that high at all. It is perfectly conceivable for one crab to get over the wall all by itself. This struck me one day when I was playing with/assisting the crabs.
            They all seemed dead or extremely slow. Some were upside down and, since I like crabs so much, I decided to flip them back over. I had flipped over two who both immediately came alive almost as if I was not helping but instead troubling them. When I came upon a third, a fourth crab quickly came out of nowhere and snapped me! I took it quite personal.
            Here I was trying to helpa fallen comrade and this MFer wants to snap me! Crab Assed Niggahs!
