Is it just me or does this whole seafood craze seems so forced

[Darealtwo1]

Reminds me of the popeyes craze.

I stay saying these girls post these seafood in these plastic bags all the time now on IG

I grew up on it. It’s a staple at any get together along with the fish fry and barbecue.



you could tell you were moving up the family line when you went from
the hot dogs/burgers at a young age
then to the barbecue a lil bit after that
to the fish with the bones at a slight older age
and finally,
the crab and lobster boils


that’s when you know your family finally sees you as being grown when you get your crab legs and no one is like

seafood is a trend now? yall SM whores gotta stop living for likes

anyway, i been #seafood gang since the womb. mom used to crave crab, shrimp and lobster when she was preggers with me. but i'm on that real seafood life, i eat a lot of fish, grilled calamari or octopus, steamed mussels, scallop ceviche, crudo and sashimi.

seafood boils are kinda wack. a whole bunch of salty cajun or old bay seasoning on things that have had the flavor boiled out of them and shrimp that hasn't been deveined (and often crab that hasn't been cleaned).

whats also a forced craze is the coffehouse black people who go there dropping 8 dollars everyday on the way to work.

not talking about those who love coffee therefore make it at home. i am talking about the starbucks loiterers and costco and them.

thats not just a white thing its dumb thing. 8 dollars for a frappacino everyday when i can youtube that shyt at home and make it myself.

I used to be one of those people. Then I bought one of those DeLonghi espresso machines and now I make my own americanos at home. Best $800 that I ever spent, especially now my Americanos are better than Starbucks. Get my Italian coffee by the kilo from Costco and I’m straight.

thats dope makes sense because you genuinely love it.

to me those with starbucks, coffehouse cups on the way to work are just stunting and a silly stunt at that.

i am working in labour now, my peers would laugh if i showed up with a starbucks coffee knowing we're working like dogs. we bring a flask.

I've seen a proliferation of boil/crab shacks and restaurants open up. Never seen them before. Actually the first time I went to one of them was in VA 2 years ago. Thought it was a novel concept.

aight, you're overdoing it. coffee every day is technically one of those areas that adds up and you could save money making it at home, but so could all the people who buy lunch every day. convenience + access to more drinks than you can make at home >> *

there are a lot of great coffee houses/roasters, it's an easy thing to grab on the way to the office (and a great time waster in the morning, me and my coworker used to always bounce together and waste 30 mins of our morning getting coffee to avoid work) vs having time to drink it at home or trying to travel with it on public trans...etc.

and when has starbucks ever been a status symbol? how does one stunt with starbucks? starbucks is the mcdonald's of coffee, coffee aint a flex. only flex in coffee are coffee snobs who get real picky about the source of the beans, roast level and brew method.

I’m in New Orleans. I been able to eat 10 pounds of crawfish since I was 10, with corn and potatoes on the side.

Dang yal living in the gulf got it made. Crawfish and crabs mad expensive out here

The most I can do as relates to bottom feeder ocean filters is Oysters. Have some Oysters with some fried shrimp on the side with some dry rose and you will fukk the shyt out of your girl and get her pregnant within an hour.
