oooh, nice one. Batshit from bats on acid loons are the best loons.

luuuulz:

I struggled as a student, mainly because I could not tell the difference between a fossilized egg and an ordinary rock, and of course there is no difference. I was treated like a leper when I refused to buy into their propaganda, and promptly left the course.

so, basically the Texashiker of academia: "I'm too dumb to understand it and too lazy to learn, therefore it is wrong!"

That's the Ankylosaurus. According to feralkid, it had a literal freaking wrecking ball with which it could fuck shit up.

my guess is that the most complete ankylosaurus they found actually had a big ass bone tumor on the end of it's tail, which deformed the bones to make it look like a big-ass wrecking ball.

In truth, that individual dragged its freak sick tail around through the dirt until the weight trapped the creature in a tar pit, preserving its freak legacy for eternity, and mystifying paleontologists and children forever.

Whoa.


I'll be in my room, crying, if anyone needs me. :(

I'm going to go ahead an assume you were ignorant in your inclusion of Pterodactyl, and really meant Quetzalcoatlus. Pterodactyls are minute pieces of dung hardly worth being included in the same order as the largest known flying animals.

Yes, I was completely ignorant in my vote for Pterodactyl. I sincerely apologize for not coming up with the Quetzalcoatlus - it didn't even cross my mind!




:rolleyes:

Denver. Denver is the best dinosaur.

He is also the last dinosaur. As well as my friend and a whole lot more. He shows me a world I never saw before.

And, everywhere we go we don't really care, if people stop and stare at our pal dino. Creating history thru the rock n' roll spotlight, we've got a friend who helps us, we can do alright.

That's Denver, the last dinosaur.

So are dinosaurs now all feathered or what? I feel like some of their coolness points might have gone down.

My penis. There's nothing else like it. It took my team of hot female palentologists and archaeologists many months of pain-staking labor to excavate enough to realize that were we're dealing with a very different terrible lizard. Some poo-poo on the very idea of peddling such finds on the private market so I still have it on display in my private collection.

Back when I was Dino-crazy, I loved that show. Now I wonder what I was thinking! It targeted me and I fell for it. :(

I always thought this one looked more terrifying than any other marine dino.
