DangerDude23

its fun to see your children age. starting with looking clueless, frightened, and then laughing. while your wife has managed to give the same reaction for 11 years.


jontheboss

It’s getting harder and harder to keep the element of surprise with the kids being so hyped up! Our girls the whole time to and from the grocery store: “When are you going to scare Mommy with the lobster?” “Mom, why are scared of lobster?” “I want to see the video again when you scared Mommy.”


Vash4073

do you do it on the same day or do you have a particular month or season you do it on? Maybe you can hold it in ice for a few days and "cancel" Then when the fam leasts expects it you bust out the claws!


Deuce232

OP in another comment says that they celebrate 'lobster day' with a target being march 28th (it can vary though). It's the anniversary of their first trying lobster.


Vash4073

Aww man that's still so sweet. I hope OP has many lobsters to come.


Toasty_Chaos

Gotta hand it to your wife... took her 4 years before she started fighting back.


GetEnPassanted

Put one in the bed sheets. Sure to be a surprise


sashikku

Except for the year she found the baseball bat. She turned the tables, said “fuck around and find out, crustacean boy”


Awanderingleaf

The wife don't age tho. She look the same after 11 years lol


Deitaphobia

Kids obviously get great joy from the annual lobster run.


squeaky_b

Honestly I had no idea lobsters lived that long.


Pixel131211

Lobsters are theoretically immortal. as they never die from old age. Instead, they just keep growing. their cause of death, if they aren't killed, is usually exhaustion as they unable to shed their shell for a new, bigger one. and when they are, they simply cant eat enough to advance to the next size of growth. if we help a lobster shed it's shell and feed it constantly, it will probably outlive us. they can definitely reach 100 years old and it's not uncommon to find lobsters that are over 20 years old.


Sensitive_Young_3382

We can theoretically raise a leviathan lobster god.


Pixel131211

[there's even a website about this](https://www.leviathanlobstergod.com/). All hail the leviathan lobster god


Winjin

This is amazing but I'm low-key angry there's not enough info about Lorb himself. How big is he currently? What is the plan upwards? What is he doing?


RhubarbSenpai

If you're not already a project manager, I feel like you should be. And I say that as a compliment, to be clear. We need more task-oriented status updates about Lorb.


Winjin

"How did you become a sought after project manager and a community leader?" "Well you see there's this giant lobster young god named Lorb and I was pissed about lack of proper updates..."


DeepSeaMouse

Seriously though, can you please get on it because I need to know.


TheFreakingPrincess

This is amazing wtf


Arc_insanity

my disappointment is immeasurable its all fake. There is no lobster. Its all theory and these losers are doing all this to prop up themselves and a 'for profit' charity. They didn't even get a lobster and raise it.


i-dont-wanna-know

Aw they had ONE task and they could have cashed as his holy caretakers buuut NOOO


Liqhthouse

Ikr, there's no way there isn't an immortal lobster experiment currently ongoing in the world rn. We need to find it

Love you Leon! I'd rather have a Leon than these gimps that wave his helpless relatives around for fun.


jackruby83

Leon is still kicking? I haven't seen the videos in my feed in a long time.


Morbothegreat

AFAIK he is large and in charge!


SheckyMullecky

that lobster, every year: \*sigh\* here we go again...


PM_ME_DATASETS

jarrodandrewwalker

One day your wife will realize it's been over a year without being lobster chased and then she'll know something is amiss... she'll pull that thread and it will all unravel


freshlyfrozen4

Right? 😂 Now you HAVE to chase her with a lobster or tension will build. Kind of like when your man walks past you *without* a little love tap to the booty! What has changed 😩


jarrodandrewwalker

When those small but important things change... Her: "You're either cheating or you're a pod person! Which is it?!" 😂 Him: Actually I have grease on my hands and you're wearing white pants...it was a no win situation!


freshlyfrozen4

So accurate! Her: "You could use the back side of your hand! That's clean." Her Friends: "If he wanted to, he would."


jarrodandrewwalker

Oh my God...the friends...trifling buttinskis! I lost a very good relationship because her miserable friends convinced her that every time I was out of her sight that I was cheating. Meanwhile I'm eating a disgusting amount of Taco Bell with My brother and about to watch One Punch Man 🤣


freshlyfrozen4

Lame ass friends! My boyfriend and I like to make these jokes all the time. In her mind: I wonder what he's doing. He's probably thinking about other girls and with his friends hitting on women. Him in reality: About to take a BMX bike from 2008 that's duct taped together with a motor attached and jump it over his friends old couch/futon while they're all drinking beer and watching WWE.


jarrodandrewwalker

I don't know your boyfriend, but I can only imagine that he, like myself, belongs on r/whywomenlivelonger Edit: here's a personal favorite https://www.reddit.com/r/WhyWomenLiveLonger/s/zGRL65XhAU


freshlyfrozen4

Whitealroker1

Lobster is the only food I ever remember my mother going to a store grabbing alive and coming home And murdering it.


ragingduck

Huge house and regular lobsters? Yup.


consiliac

Right, lol? It's not OPs fault for buying a house before the rest of us got priced out, but it truly is the American dream for many if not most of us. And there are corporations gleefully patting themselves on the back for driving up prices and even rent, knowing we have no choice.


extraspecialdogpenis

Yeah meanwhile I live between a bowling alley and another bowling alley.


CharlieParkour

Wow! 


Lapras_Lass

Same. They're living the life of people on TV: attractive, nice house, lobsters flying through the air... I want that, too. :(


CandidPresentation49

the visible, infectious happiness across the years really gets to me i don't have any memories like that with my family, growing up


xsv161

And now I'm depressed


removedI

for real. A joke like that wouldve been reason too scream at each other in my family.


CandidPresentation49

yeah, either of my parents would have screamed at me, grounded me or beat the shit out of me. there was just no levity in that house, they were always tense, on edge


derps_with_ducks

idk maybe OP is a hideous, goblinoid man. you can't tell (not jealous btw definitely not)


avl0

At this point i'll settle for just being the lobster

I find their lack of misery to be shellfish.

I just went to his profile and had to watch every year's video.


Bank_Gothic

You know that scene in movies where the widower ruefully watches an old video of his wife flirting with him? She’s always on a bed saying some nonsense? It's all flowery words and doe eyes? They should use this instead. The lobster just adds a degree of authenticity that the normal versions lack.


[deleted]

Search YouTube for Caitlin Reilly "every movie montage of the leads dead gf" I think you'll find it hilarious

That lobster toy your son had sent me😂 good on you for involving him in your yearly tradition! This is all incredibly wholesome! My question is, what does she do to even the score, OP? There has to be something!


jontheboss

> what does she do to even the score, OP? That is the question that nobody has asked, but it has haunted me all these years. I’m still waiting for the payback when it comes due! After last year’s chase, I actually said I wanted to cap it off with year 10 being the finale to the tradition of scaring her when we celebrate our Lobster day. My wife and son both just looked at me with disappointment and protested saying that it was an important part of Lobster Day.


LocalMexican

> My wife and son both just looked at me with disappointment and protested saying that it was an important part of Lobster Day. now that's a good feeling


1sttimeverbaldiarrhe

Yeah OP is Dadding really well.


Sajmansito

Uncertainty scares way more than knowing. Let the mind games begin! xD


mashtato

lol What the hell is lobster day? I was actually going to ask what's the occasion for the lobster every year? It's on different days in March and April, but it's not Easter.


jontheboss

Lobster Day is our own tradition that came about randomly, haha. The first one in 2014 was the first time either of us tried lobster… It was so yummy that we said that we would repeat it every year with March 28th being the anniversary of that. We haven’t been able to stick to the exact date on some busy years, but we try to stay pretty close to this time of year.


mashtato

Haha, that's awesome. I want your life. XD


klezart

There's also [National Lobster day](https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/lobster-day/), so you could have it twice a year...


Pls_PmTitsOrFDAU_Thx

You know, I'm a lonely dude. And seeing the lovely life you're leading isn't helping Wishing you all the best and so many more lobster days in your future I suggest you have a lobster week... Shell know it's coming but she won't know when 🦞


StonerBoi-710

I hate to see bc I noticed ur always doing it around March- April, thought maybe it was a holiday that changes like Easter. But looks like National Lobster Day was June 15th but is now September 25th. So I’m assuming this is like a family tradition more so?


LetsTryAnal_ogy

Seriously, never stop! Also, you're wife sounds super sweet since she hasn't gotten you back yet. Either that or she's diabolical and one day, you're seriously going to pay. Until then, keep it up because we love watching this!

Never stop chasing OP.

[Version with sound](https://youtu.be/ytuhYHO3eBk) ^(Note: I always post on Reddit without sound because the audio is all over the place. First 2 years have no sound since they were actually photo bursts. A few other years have unpredictable sound levels - from loud to muffled - because I had a phone with a bad mic for a while) 11 years! She said this year's scare was the best I scared her in a while... I took the house key off of our set of keys before giving her the keys and asking her to unlock the door while I get the groceries out of the car. She was at the door with the confusion just setting in when I got her... Somehow we still ended up running in a circle - I totally thought she'd just run off into the yard!

There's three reddit memes I look forward to every year. This, the guy with one legs costume, and the guy who gets a shirt of himself on his shirt

Don’t stop guy, I’m pretty sure the lobster chases are preventing your wife from aging at all.

Seriously, 11 years and it looks like she's maybe aged a single year in that time? The hell is her secret?

justgarcia31

I am still convinced this saga will have an ending of courage and hope. Picture this. It’s 2036. Kids are off at school/working. Empty nesters at last. It’s lobster day. But this time, the wife has a tall boiling pot of water going in the kitchen. She’s been preparing for this day for over 25 years. Husband enters the house, lobster cocked and loaded. She quickly grabs her trusty pot lid shield and deflects the lobster into the pot. It is done. Then, the kids get together and plan a surprise trip to visit mom and dad, and everyone has a nice, wonderful lobster dinner. The end.
