Well, my fiance doesn't want to boil him alive, so I have to poke him in the eye first or something...

I've always put it into a pot of cool water, let it sit, cover pot, slowly increase the heat til perrfection.

ahahahahahhaahah ahha.

Ask her that when she's on her deathbed, that you're going to jab her in the eye with a fork instead of injecting her with morphine.

Freeze the lobster. It is supposed to make it feel less of the boilling.

I first take the rubber bands off the lobsters claws, then I construct a rough "circle of death" in which I place the lobster. I then prod them to fight each other until they tire, placing the losers in the water first allowing the other lobsters to hear the scream. All the while playing Star Trek (Spock vs Kirk) fighting music.

It's just a lobster--Do you think twice before you stomp on its relative, the cockcroach?

Boiling it is probably the best solution--Use a BIG pot so that it'll be fast :)

That's the best way for the lobster... They won't feel pain from the slowly increasing temp...

Ok lobsters do NOT feel pain. They may register an extreme change in temperature but they feel NO pain. The screaming sound you hear is air escaping from under their shell as they boil.

Are you a lobster? How do you know if it feels pain? Holy crap, you're going to be eating the thing, does it matter if it dies quick on slowly? It all ends up in your stomach either way, so I don't think the lobster minds going quickly or slowly.
