Because it’s usually to large crabs duking it out for the larger shell. When one of them inevitably loses, all the other crabs that are lined up, by size, no less, immediately ditch their shells for the next size up. Leaving behind the smallest shell for a large crab. I got to see this first hand at a beach in Mexico when I was a kid. I had no clue what was going on with all these crabs lined up from large to small, it was so cool to watch. But sad too.

Lmao imagine this happening with humans and Zucc or Musk ends up in some dilapidated house in Eastern Europe.

  Yeah, this actually sounds fine to me. Since they’re entirely self-made men who acquired their wealth through their own hard work and gumption, it’s only a minor setback.

    The original situation is more like a disabled person getting a topmost flat in a 9 floor building without an elevator.

Sad for the crab, but happy news for a seagull or octopus or something.

That would be okay too, let’s have the MTV Cribs guys duke it out and then everyone else gets a fitting home

    That sounds like a totally different type of show about celebrities
