that's because it's a non-countable noun...you can't say "that's a whole lot of craps" unless there are dies involved.

Utter nonsense, I was treated for crabs just last week. It ain't called a "case of the crab", you know!

It's true- the pubic louse Phthirus pubis can be plural or singular, with its synonyms 'crab louse/lice', or as 'crabs'.
Incidentally, pubic lice with their specially developed clinging forelimbs appeared as a late evolutionary ofshoot of the all-body louse seen in other primates. Phthirus pubis seems to have adapted to an STD niche only in humans. Probably as a result of our peculiar body hairlessness, with startling re-appearing patches of secondary sexual hirsuteness.
However, as you'll know the STD chlamydia is common to both humans and koalas. Think on that.

Koalas are cool. Not only do they like to get fucked-up, they care not a whit whether they are countable or otherwise. For real expertise however, one should turn to the sloth. They know the fucking score.
iopn - cilging frorelibms? i gota aunt wiht those.

Muff Diver is wrong! They only call it crabs on the NHS. If you go private, the consultant will say “ an inconvenience of crab sir”, or so I’ve been told.
And another thing, my grandfather invented the telephone and STD stands for Subscriber Trunk Dialling. Let’s keep it tight people.

Koalas like to get fucked-up? How, like? On eucalypus leaves, or licking cane-toads?
And Ha3- was that your aunt or your ant that had the clinging forelimbs? Oh, never mind...

Ion - koalas are total fucking stoners man. The eucalyptus, a tough plant that no other living thing bothers with, acts as a narcotic on our dissolute friends. That's why they loll all day in the tree-tops, munching on that good shit. You ever seen a koala being dynamic, swinging from tree to tree? I don't fucking think so! There's a lot of video of K.s clinging on to branches and just falling the fuck off they're so wasted. I suspect, being languid guys and gals, levels of 'inconvenience of crab, Sir', are low.
Brewki is wrong-
They're not stoned but slothful, an expression of the slow metabolism of many marsupials.

Ion is right! The stoned thing is one of them urban legend things. Much like STDs. I mean, who believes in that crap?
Also, once I quit seeing a guy because he insisted on saying "shrimps" for more than one shrimp. A girl has got to have standards, you know.

Thanks to Ion and Vague, I have lost all respect for koalas. Although I wouldn't wish chlamydia on anyone.
The koala reminded me of an earlier post of HA HA HA’s. Is this not like people who go on safariS and return to say they’ve seen elephant, wildebeest, zebra? You wouldn’t say, “I was at the seaside and there I saw seagull, coke can, CRAB.”
Dr Maroon - ...or two elephant

Yes, yes, yes, this is all funny and good, but I'm with Jake. Where's the next episode of Clowany? I fear you're building up to something really sinister and Halloween is nigh!
Hey- you're lucky. Went into the combined pet shop/grooming parlour to pick up rat food. Asked of the assistant whether the happy fluffy dog appearing from the parlour had just had a blow-job. I meant blow-dry.
PS Jeff's 'corn on the crab' is another urban myth, but sympathise with vague- remember that in the YouKay you've not only shrimp/s but prawn/s. And get this-they're perversely reversed in size
ion, don't get me started on size, of course we say shrimps and prawns and favour and colour - you got too lazy to do it right! I had a bucket, a fucking bucket of what was called Popcorn Shrimp in Galveston - enough to feed half an army and I still don't know what the fuck they are - crayfish? Or some weird GM hybrid things? Anyway, they tasted lovely!
