The blue lobster image became a meme because its unnatural bright colour looks edited, even though blue lobsters are real and extremely rare. Online, the picture is shared out of context as a random reaction, often with distorted audio or a crude sound effect replacing any sensible caption. The fart version leans into that anti-humour, treating the lobster like a grand reveal while the audio gives it no dignity at all. It remains popular in short edits precisely because it needs no setup, explanation or familiar character to land.
