ContraBoss posted:Yissssssss! Godamn right. Original .cx domain. I always wondered if the locals just eat the poo poo out of those crabs during their migration or whatever. Like godamn look at all that crab. Maybe they somehow taste like poo poo or something. Spinster posted:Spiders of the Sea I've always speculated that the first humans to eat a crab were prolly starving before they got around to "Yeah gently caress it I'll eat that spiny water spider."

I saw this in the gbs discord earlier today. I actually wrote a story involving monstrously huge genetically engineered war-crabs with armored plated and weapon hardpoints bolted onto their shells. Can't get it published though. I'm prolly a terrible writer but I enjoy doing it.

myDad posted:gotta post it dude No way dude. I'm horribly self conscious about creative stuff. I've thrown away prolly 80% of everything I've ever written and I wouldn't even send anything to a publisher until about two years ago. I hate pretty much everything I write when I re-read it. But the gist of it is this empire took volunteers from a sentient species of crab that was already pretty huge and juiced them full of poo poo that made them grow huge. They got big fast enough that they had to saw apart their shell to allow the expansion and graft plates into the gaps once it was done. They then mounted crazy rear end manned weapon hardpoints and used them in undersea war. Think WH40k poo poo except not xenophobic and populated primarily by sentient aquatic creatures of various kinds. So basically underwater wh40k crab biotitans.

Lol I appreciate the interest but for real I'm cripplingly self conscious about writing. I don't even let people I know really well read anything and keep it locked in a file cabinet unless I'm sending something to a publisher so that I'm less likely to throw it away. And I haven't got anything published yet so odds are it prolly is as bad as I think it is. I just wanted to write SciFi poo poo about an aquatic empire using dolphin-like lancers and melee battle crabs and whales with artillery on them and poo poo. You never see an aquatic SciFi empire and I really like the idea. Like little tiny animals like shrimps and poo poo being used by a psychic for microsurgery and whales with armor plated noses and metal reinforced skeletons to act as battering rams and poo poo. Fuckin' swarms of bladed fish under mind control to shred enemies and stuff. I just really like the idea. I just wanted to share my love of the idea of gigantic battlecrabs blasting apart cities and snipping towers in half with their claws and poo poo.

ContraBoss posted:I can smell your potential from here, man. Creative flow is the bread and butter of all things cool, so I hope you find a way to stop doubting yourself and make your dreams a reality I send stuff to publishers. I just make sure that once I'm done I don't idly reread it later and condemn it to destruction.

The YETI CRAB is in desperate need of a shave. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiwa_hirsuta For real though this is why Pick threads owned when they were about random animals instead of how she scared a crippled man under a truck by desperately wanting to have sex with him. Animal threads own good job OP. Also I tried to find a picture of a gigantic battle crab or something similar because hell yeah but I came up pretty much empty. The scifi world is apparently too hung up on spider stuff to think of the humble crab.

a real rude dude posted:crabs are loving disgusting op Nah. They're cool, tough as hell, and delicious. Like look at that crab gif on the first page. That dude ripped his own arm off and was just like "I DON'T GIVE A gently caress, SCREW THIS GAY rear end ARM" and at the same time he's also prolly delicious to eat.

ContraBoss posted:Troof. Even in my tank, one crab had been checking out a shell for a while and was prepared to move into it, then a slightly larger crab came by, shoved him out of the way, checked out the shell, and moved in. You could feel the passive aggressive fury boiling over in the smaller crab as it helplessly watched this all take place. Lmao owned bitch

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:wait, there's a gbs discord for discussion of crabs? Nah I just peek in the gbs channel of the sa server occasionally which is basically just the general chat channel and that earlier war crab thing was posted in there. Mostly I just lurk the Elite: Dangerous channel. There were no crabs of any kind in there, unfortunately.

I ate a buncha crab legs the other night with grilled shrimp, a NY strip, and some roasted corn in the cob and god damned that crab was amazing. So was everything else, but still. Both crabs and eating them are extremely cool.

Welp, that does it. I'm gonna post a story about a giant scifi battlecrab. Need some time to think about it though. We actually talked about this some waaaaay earlier in the thread and I refused to post what I've already written and I still won't post it (on account of the fact that I'm still workshopping that specific story and trying to get it published), but after seeing all these images of gun-laden crabs I'm inclined to write something more condensed for the thread.
