As I was one of the commenters who mentioned vaginas and lobster, which I didn’t connect at the time to this old trope, I apologise for offending. Lucky lobster isn’t fish. An old trope it may be, it is still a truth. Sometimes during and after menstration one can smell fishy. Being a water sign, it never worried me.

It does pay to read the whole letter. Not sure how a lobster would get in there, sounds related to the sometimes fishy smell.
Funny boys and their silly stories.

People seem to get triggered and upset and offended by anything and everything, and then huff and puff about it. But to a vegan who gets triggered by lobster references, Dan (rightly) says "Fuck off". To a woman who gets upset about being reminded (bless her heart) of an old "fishy twat" trope, Dan says "Sorry", while pointing out that a lobster isn't a fish but NOT that shrimp don't come from lobsters FFS.

Apparently the only practicing doctor in America who welcomes sexual advances from patients actually lives in my town.
My (female) friend had an attractive (female) anesthesiologist for her surgery last week. I guess there was some light flirting back and forth pre-surgery which escalated (on my friend’s part) while she was going under. Friend was loopy and telling doc how she had a “perfect hourglass figure” and who knows what else she doesn’t remember. After surgery, doc passed on contact info and said something about how she would love to see more of her tattoos. My friend is psyched.
Of course both behaved badly, and the happy ending must be very atypical. I just don’t like it when people get statistics wrong.

As someone who hates lobster (and most seafood), I'm not sure I could ever get behind any definition of "with extra lobster" that has a positive meaning.

@5 Me too! IT'S A FUCKING SPIDER!! EWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!

Fubar @3, maybe it was a magic vagina.
Lobsters have claws, and isn’t that another less true trope, that vaginas have claws, ready to close shut over some unawares boy.

@6 Maybe that's the angle to pursue here. Lobster seems to be one of those things with no middle ground, either you love it or detest it. Not sure what that translates into sexually.

Maybe scat?

@8 Corydon
"Lobster...either you love it or detest it"

I just find it bland. But that just means that throughout this misguided quest to make (the cute little in-joke of) "more" of it a neologism, I start thinking of it's freaky visual appearance, which means I've been cringing nearly every step of this discussion. Dan is powerful, but even a God couldn't make dog hunt.

@8 Corydon
"Maybe scat?"

Yes that would work for everyone! "More lobster" is when everyone is covered in shit then everyone shits/covers everyone a lot more! Either a negative or a positive depending upon the beholder.

(Per Corydon this is the first one that truly works in my eyes. You asked for it, Dan, I think your adorable [but non-transferable] in-joke should mean a [horrifying or sexy] shit-fest.)

I can't believe I'm just now thinking of this, but the lobster thing could refer to watersports.
Lobsters communicate sexual interest by the male wafting pheromones towards a prospective mate to gauge her receptiveness. And they do that by basically spraying urine at her.

(I recently read an interesting book called The Secret Life of Lobsters, which talks about their ecology, development, behavior, and also about the industry and culture that's grown up around lobster fishing in New England. Highly recommend it, as someone who doesn't even eat lobster.)

"Lobsters communicate sexual interest by the male wafting pheromones"

Good luck creating a neologism whose acceptance depends upon people learning this.

AMA Code of Medical Ethics Opinion 9.1.1
"Romantic or sexual interactions between physicians and patients that occur concurrently with the patient physician relationship are unethical. Such interactions detract from the goals of the patient-physician relationship and may exploit the vulnerability of the patient, compromise the physician’s ability to make objective judgments about the patient’s health care, and ultimately be detrimental to the patient’s well-being."

DO NOT HIT ON YOUR DOCTOR!

OK I WON’T!

Of course not "my" doctor (as in a continuing relationship), but I think a doctor you see one time isn't out of the question. For example on this week's Broad City, after the Emergency Room visit was over, Abbie asked out her doctor.

Hi upside down venomlash.

Curious2 @15: That's fiction. Also for example, on Russian Doll, after Nadia died she woke up again in the same bathroom she'd been in several hours before. That's not realistic for real life either.

@17 BiDanFan
"That's fiction."

It is?!

JK, or course it is. But it is fiction Dan han endorsed many times. Even interviewed the creators (https://www.savagelovecast.com/episodes/490).

I've wanted to but never done it (and I probably shouldn't, I seem to be susceptible to transference with women healing professionals) but you tell me what's wrong with it (by which as usual I mean 'what harm can be done by it') once the one visit with a doctor you'll never see again is completely over.

I really don't understand people's vehemence about never hitting on anyone in their work place. Sure, don't be a persistent dick who doesn't take no for an answer--be casual, be graceful in the face of rejection--but to have a blanket "never do it"? Odd. I know so many people who are in relationships with people they met while one or the other (or both) were at work. It seems to me a perfectly natural place for adults to meet someone if they haven't already paired up during school.

@19 ciods
"vehemence about never hitting on anyone in their work place"

Aaaah I can see the argument.

WFIW in the show it was a woman doing the 'hitting on'.
And the hitee had 'opened the door'; I can see (and I have) resisting doing so 'out of the blue'.

@19 I don't think I've ever hit on anyone in any workplace I've ever been in. And actually, I got one of my FWBs hired on at the last place I worked at. And no, we never did anything at all on company time.

It always seemed like it would be disrespectful somehow, not so much to the individual (like you said, so long as you're not a dick about it, I don't mind anyone hitting on me) as to the workplace itself. I'm there to get a job done after all.

Most often, the objection is due to a large number of men mistaking professional friendliness as personal interest. This happens a lot to young women in service industries - barista, waitress, retail cashiers and so on. In those cases, the people being hit on often feel trapped, because telling a customer 'no' isn't exactly encouraged.

@22 sanguisuga
"a large number of men mistaking professional friendliness as personal interest"

That's true, most people are clueless.

@21 I think the workplace deserves respect, but not to the point of excluding all personal stuff. We are still human beings at the office, and human relationships will develop— friendships for example, even though friendships are sometimes detrimental to the company. I know I personally have covered for friends at the office when the company’s best interest would be to fire them.

Generally I don’t like when people on the internet prescribe universal rules for how humans are allowed to interact. But actually I don’t really have a problem with the “don’t hit on your doctor” rule.

@24 joeburner2
"I think the workplace deserves respect, but not to the point of excluding all personal stuff"

Hell yes. Work is for work, but /not/ every damn second!

I actually don't think it's a huge problem to ask out someone you work with, as long as neither of you directly supervises the other- and as long as you're aware it's a risk that may result in you needing to find a new job.

What Sanguisuga @22 said. Plus, for me, the biggest argument in favour of a "don't shit where you eat" rule is the huge likelihood that at some point you will break up. Who wants to have to work with their ex every day? Sounds like a complete nightmare to me. I dated someone who had dated a colleague, their relationship soured, and she accused him of sexual harassment due to suggestive e-mails. Why risk that sort of thing? If two colleagues find themselves falling for each other, one of them should make plans to look for a new job.

Now, dating people you work -with- and hitting on people who provide you with a service are two different things, and Sanguisuga nailed the latter. Hitting on a barista, for instance, they are trapped behind a counter and required as a condition of their employment to be nice to you. They could lose their job for being "rude" to a customer, even if that "rudeness" was simply shutting down inappropriate advances. Don't do that, either. There are SO many other ways to meet people.

@27 BiDanFan
"Who wants to have to work with their ex every day? Sounds like a complete nightmare..."

It did totally suck both times I broke up with people I worked with. But I'm still glad I had both relationships.

The video on this post was so much classier (and sexier) than the creepy jump roping-in-gym shorts guy. And I really hope with extra lobster catches on as something awesome with a little extra amazing thrown in.
