The Walmarts near me all stopped selling live lobsters a while ago. I haven't seen live lobsters in forever

I shouldn't be surprised that the Venn bubbles of Leon the lobster and Lemmy overlap. I'm here after all.

My wife absolutely hates that guy and I have to watch in secret.

Because he's a boring boomer guy who thinks he's hilarious. And he makes lame ass lowkey misogynist boomer comments.

I watch for the lobster and skip the walks in the woods and kitten rescue stuff.

Aww, that sucks ass :( I haven't caught up, I guess I haven't seen any of that part yet.

I enjoyed the little bit of him restoring a motorcycle I saw. Fuckin stupid sexists.

It's definitely nothing scandalous. Just normal shit from a Florida man boomer guy. Very "Leave It To Beaver" level misogyny. "Leon tidies his house so much, maybe he's a woman yuk-yuk. I should get him an apron har-har" I think she mostly can't stand him because her mother's boyfriend is a similar type.

Ah, yeah I can definitely see that being grating and just kinda generally unpleasant. Thanks for filling me in on the context

damn, I cannot imagine hating the animal rescue guy. lobster store rescue! goldfish carnival rescue - it's crazy sweet

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago

It hits different when you're listening from the other side of the room and have his folksy yuk-yuks intrude into your personal space.

I followed Leon ever since the first video and the „Sad Leon News“ video released, my heart dropped. Glad my favorite pinchy boi is still alive and fighting!

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Everyone loves Leon, but does nobody remember Pinchy?

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have no idea who Leon is, I thought this meme is about Pinchy

Punchy is my boy.

[–] Mr_Reach@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Last update nearly broke my heart before he pointed out that Leon was fine.

[–] Balrog@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Long live Leon the lobster!

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 0 points 16 hours ago

He looks tasty.

[–] blackluster117@possumpat.io 3 points 1 day ago

Welp, I've got something new to watch over the extended weekend. I'm ready to love Leon.

Leon is love. Leon is life.

[–] Ranger@lemmy.blahaj.zone -4 points 1 day ago
