Rite........Every school I've been to has been fine? What's your point?

If you don't know a chicken lays an egg and a cow doesn't, it's either because you haven't been taught it when young by your parents, or the teacher / school hasn't decided to teach it in the class.

i'm not even going to bother, just out of curiosity though, do you know where eggs come from?

Awesome video...

Then again, the water is actually meant to be boiling so it kills them instantly-not just hot so it scalds them!!!

Hope it tasted good though

Well that was worth the contribution, if your education wasn't up to standard then that's fine.

are you unable to follow a conversation and/or realise when people are mocking you?

Your assumption by a news article that education is poor in the country as a whole is meaningless.

I know plenty of people who have gone to 'bad' schools, and turned out better than the ones who attended private / higher up schools.

So hey.

So I'm being mocked because my choice of schools where fine? That makes sense.

How very vague of you.

an article which is based upon a scientifically conducted survey, unlike your personal experience which is based solely on your own (apparently poorly) founded opinion

edit: I should have just underlined the whole sentence really.

Good thread. yet again shows how many hippies are on this forum.. They wouldn't lasta month fending for themselfs.

Unless I'm missing the part of the OP where our intrepid chef went out and caught the crab rather than wandering down to the shops, your point would seem to be somewhat wide of the mark.

I've not no qualms about killing an animal to eat it but I don't derive any pleasure from doing so nor would I think it was entertainment. And when I do kill for food I damn well make sure that the animal is shown some respect and killed in the quickest, most humane way possible. The enjoyment comes from eating the food not from killing the animal.

Ultimately if people want to kill, cook and eat animals then they should at least show some respect for the animal in the first place and not treat it like a toy.

Considering we are talking about education (even though the thread is about cooking a crab?) I'm sure you can work it out.

Did you just spot that

Interesting thread. The video made me laugh

(ohnoes I'm a cruel man)

As to the RSPCA link - I personally don't see why stabbing the crab to severe its nervous system is any more cruel than it dying in the boiling water straight away....

Cook lobsters like that all the time, caught right over my garden wall.

Although I do live in a small fishing village, where people have killed and eaten lobsters/crabs in such a manner for hundreds of years, without crying about it.

The people who say "buy it in a tin" etc, if I was a crab or lobster I think I'd rather have a happy life in the sea then be subjected to a relatively quick death, rather than be caught and kept in terrible conditions for a few days until being shipped to a processing plant and killed along with the rest of my family, then stuffed in a tin.

I don't see lions killing gazelle in humane manners, should they be lambasted as well?

No, you're being mocked because you insist on asserting that education in the UK (including your own) is perfectly adequate, whilst succeeding in making spelling/grammar mistakes in every post...

However, I will now drop the point, and let this thread get back on track.

Oh yes, I forgot picking out someones punctuation skills on these forums is a way of ridiculing someone.

Grow up.

Thanks, again, so my written English is not as high as others on the forums? I am sorry.

I haven't said education 'in the UK' is adequate, in some places it does need improving obviously.

Not really, no. Education can take a very wide meaning (e.g. he was well educated enough to know how to act in good society and to not be happy with a menial station in life) or a very specific meaning (e.g. he has one more GCSE than the crab).
