I blinked as I passed the bathrooms ... someone had taken chalk and crossed out “Fins” and “Tails.” A wild scrawl proclaimed “Crawdads” and “Crawmamas.” I laughed and headed for the stairs.

All my life I called them crawfish, not crawdads. If they are crawdads, where are the crawmoms?

Urban Dictionary
crawmom
A female crayfish. Illegal to harvest, since they are “our future” of crayfish stock, just like female lobsters.
I hear that soon they’re gonna start mandating that fishermen clip a V-notch in crawmom’s tails to distinguish them from crawdads, just as they have to do with lobsters.

What kind of weird species is the crawfish, that they have crawdads but no crawmoms or crawkids? That seems really cray, and sorta fishy.
