Sorry, Jeff.

There's something about the title that doesn't work well in English.

This website is for a vending machine that dispenses live (hairy) crab. It's interesting for an ex-proofreader. Is the vending machine is hairy? Are the crab hairy? How does a hairy crab operate a vending machine?. I suspect English translated into Mandarin or Cantonese works poorly too.

or a live one for that matter.

walking it on a leash could take forever,
and even if I Cook it up, It's not going to stay alive
till I pop it in my mouth.
