How to Unboil a Lobster with Pure Doubt and WIFI


First, Become a Refrigerator Emotionally

Before you can unboil anything, you must emotionally resonate at the frequency of a medium-sized refrigerator. Not a fridge. Not a freezer. A refrigerator that feels vaguely underappreciated.


Sit cross-legged in a bowl of alphabet soup and whisper “defrost” until the spoon leaves you for someone named Kevin.


Hack the Lobster's Memory

Connect the lobster to your router using a USB made of existential dread and melted crayons. Then access its Shell.log file and delete the following entries:

  • Boiled = true

  • Screamed = a little

  • Regret > Butter

Once the memories are erased, the lobster may forget it was ever cooked. But it may also believe it's a dentist. This is a risk we accept.


Enhance the WIFI with Croutons

Take a bag of stale croutons and place them in a Fibonacci spiral under a full moon made entirely of unpaid parking tickets.


Now chant:


"Router, router, burning bright, Reconnect this snack tonight."

If your toaster explodes, you're on the right track. If your cat levitates and whispers tax advice, you’ve gone too far. Reboot your walls.


Enter the Lobster's Dream and Confess

Using a spoonful of mayonnaise and a used sock, open a portal into the lobster's subconscious. Once inside, locate the Kitchen of Eternal Stew and find the lobster.

Tell it:


“You are not food. You are a concept. Swim backward.”

If the floor turns into jazz music and your hands become IKEA manuals, congratulations—you've achieved Pre-Boil Awareness.


Manifest a Reverse-Steam Cloud With Your Feelings

Cry into a modem while thinking about all the times you were chosen last for dodgeball. This will create a reverse-steam cloud that gently peels back the layers of thermal trauma.

At this point, the lobster should revert into:

  • A slightly damp ambition

  • A junior violinist from Cincinnati

  • Or a perfectly raw version of itself that questions your authority


Conclusion: The Lobster Was Never Real

In the end, realize that the lobster was a metaphor for your desire to control entropy with snack foods and vague emotional uncertainty.


Close your laptop. Open your heart. Let the lobster go.
