This post makes me realize I’ve been sitting on the toilet too long.

I imagine the Ministry of Magic probably has alarms and detection systems in place for the unforgivable curses being used. Then you'd say "What's the harm, then? Just makin my tea, yeah?" Or however that would have gone :P

Hope they do the same for crabs. Being steamed to death seems…. Excessive.

Edit: I find myself disappointed.

One might infer that wizards and witches ROUTINELY perform the curse that literally no one is allowed to use, ever, for any reason? Really?

Yea. Crabs do not deserve such a horrible fate. Even nature knows they are perfect being. That's why animals evolve into crabs so often

No, not even close. You can’t just say the words and something dies. It has to have emotion behind it. Anger, fear, hate, etc.

Killing a lobster does not qualify. It’s also much easier just to drop them in a boiling pot, they won’t feel it.

Since the wizards in Harry Potter constantly use magic for everything while cooking, one might infer they humanely kill lobsters with Avada Kedavra before boiling them.
