I grew up in horseshoe crab central and they give me the megawillies, I remember wading out into the ocean and seeing a wave forming right ahead of me with what looked to my small self like a million horseshoe crabs suspended in it, and there was nowhere to go... Also, you really only have to step on a horseshoe crab once to have very bad feelings about them forever.

That said, I feel a little bad for them here, all folded in half and punctured. Also, their blood is super cool. I wish I had blue blood. Mostly, though, I just have the megawillies.

man this shit goes down in labs and shit and then when satan comes back to take possession of his kingdom everybody's gonna be like oh no satan we are down with god, what'd we ever do to deserve this! and satan is going to say DRAINING THE BLUE BLOOD FROM THE CRABS IN THE LABS, FRIEND and everybody will have to be all "advantage satan"
