Rocking in Hakata

Why do they want to die?! You’d think I lived on Christmas Island or something, the way crabs recklessly dash out onto the pavement during this time of year. They’re worse than squirrels, seriously. Rather than changing direction seven or eight times before finally committing to running for their life, they just brandish their oversized claws and buckle down before they meet someone’s tires. And what a sick crunching noise they make, too. I took this outside my apartment - barely dodged this guy on my scooter. (Wouldn’t have even tried had I not been going really slowly in a parking lot, though.) Lucky little guy.
