Sitting around doesn't enter the equation, all precooked frozen shrimp
stink as/while they thaw.... they weep, that liquid stinks.

To me only fresh shrimp are worth eating... and grilled or sauted...
boiling ruins shrimp (unless it's soup/stew you're after). Frozen
shrimp, whether precooked or raw are not even fit for cat food.... I
mean frozen seafood is bad enough, who in their sane mine would want to
pay good money for precooked frozen seafood... I mean how many people
cook fresh fish and then freeze the left overs... Mrs. Paul! Shrimp
cocktail is highly over rated, that garbage (and make no mistake about
it, it's definitely garbage) they pawn off as appetizer is nothing but
a bowlful of spiced up ketchup with a few old precooked frozen shrimp
with the nuance of unwashed crotch... and the prices they charge, they
couldn't pay me enough to indulge. Shrimp cocktail is a pretty
disgusting concoction... and why is it predominately the gals who swoon
over of this culinary abortion... makes me think they possess latent
kinky homo tendancies (eating lesbo on the rag).
