I demand a public apology for this calamitous affront.

The author of that article:
A direct descendant of Thag Simmons.

To be fair, those Thagomizers are brutal

Wow the writer really hated Stegosaurus for no reason

[–] AJ1@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 months ago

reminds me of that sunfish copypasta that came out all those years ago and influenced an entire generation of sunfish haters

🤓 did you know the Stegosaurus was as old to the t rex as the t rex is too us 🦖 that's a rock fact

Amateur. Took literal eons for someone to say this about Stegasour. I've gotten people to say this about me in my short lifetime.

I'm something of a grotesque freak of nature, myself.

Plus 10 points for that display to not have steggy in a sprawled posture. Still inaccurate to my modern eyes, but not horrible

The boldness to wear frosted tips in the Late Jurassic. Stego is my fave.

Fuck you, they were badass.

Stegosaurus was a weird looking critter but that's only because of the secret message hidden in every photo of him.

Kinky dino porn is timeless. His name was Chad Johnson
