One axiom of science always comes to mind when things like this get posted: matter cannot be destroyed, only rearranged
Well we did have thumbs Soo I kinda think we are better then a stegosaurus
But could the dinosaurs DO THIS? Straps myself to a rocket and blasts off the planet into space
A rocket fueld by dinosaurs
Now that’s T-Bagging
Not fair to the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs got hit by a meteor, humans are destroying themselves.
The dinosaurs are doing quite well. Corvids in particular…
Nah. I’ve seen those Flintstone documentaries. They had all the consumer mod cons.
You’d think it’s us with the peanut-sized brains.
Stegosaurus really isn’t the best example of a long lasting clade of dinosaurs. These losers didn’t even make it to the Cretaceous !
Are sharks the best example?
No. Sharks are not dinosaurs.
Sharks have been around for over 450 million years.
Bruh, reading through this thread, I’m low-key having an existential crisis thinking about the timeline where that extinction event didn’t happen. No humans, no tech, no video games.
Dinosaurs rule forever?
What if my soul got incarnated as a dinosaur, what is it like?
Just chillin’?
Idk
Sorry I can’t come in to work today I have to molt
Yo dog. I know it’s 鬼月. This time of year, everyone in Taiwan thinks about their mortality.
My suggestion is to think about what you want to accomplish if you don’t have to think about survival.
I learned about ghost month from you, thanks 💜
Its coo coo crazy how much people here believes it here. This morning I saw a row of businesses, about 8 store fronts, was outside praying and burning “spirit money”. Employees are forced to pray as well.
Souls aren’t a thing and there is no reincarnation so you’re fine.
Nature is pretty scary
Alternatively, be amazed at how much we’ve tamed.
I think I’m a little better than a stegosaurus.
Oh yeah? Well how big is your thagomizer?
You can’t see it but that’s only because It’s cold I swear.
RIP Thag Simmons.
c… can we touch thagomizers?
Well, we have brains we can use to spot and destroy or redirect incoming asteroids. So yeah I am. Also stegosaurus was long extinct by the time of asteroid impact.
My brain cannot do that, I don’t think I can even move a pencil with my brain. Should I go to the doctor?
Bro, have you seen “Don’t look up”?
Have you seen this DiCaprio movie where we all die ?
That was about climate change.
not better than a stegosaurus
By what metrics? I challenge any dinosaur from any species to a banjo duel and I’ll show you all who’s better.
I challenge any dino to a fighting duel and I’ll show you who’s superior. Oh wait, they all dead? That’s right bitch! They all dead. (banjo sounds during my mic drop pls)
By what metrics?
You do not have thagomizer.
RIP Thag Simmons.
A stegosaurus cannot build microcontrollers, rocket engines or nuclear explosives. We can. But sure, some bones on your ass I guess.
We can.
Can you?
Yes, yes and haven’t tried.
But sure, some bones on your ass I guess.
Exactly. Why live?
The boy can’t spell “you’re”. We don’t need to challenge him on the content. Similarly, if the tenor can’t hold the first note, we don’t need to stay for the performance.
So “you’re” argument is that dinosaurs would win when it comes to a spelling contest? (it’s your)
birds reading this:
Birds when humans talk about dinosaurs going extinct like they just vanished: “Am I joke to you?!”
plumage and pecking and pigeons and chicken tenders
Humans: I mean… sometimes, yes.
Why do I feel some kinda way about that sexy ass bird?
wait til you see their legs and feet :P
They’re called secretary birds.
HR! This post right here!
Those lashes + whatever the fuck Disney and Looney Tunes were up to
Beastiality?
It’s spelled “bestiality”, because it’s the best
Check out the anime called Aggretsuko.
I’ve seen enough Jurassic Park franchise movies to know that at least some dinosaurs had bills.
Don’t worry mankind and animals are the next fuel for the future cars!
What a poetry Mankind on a killing spree for oil ending up becoming the oil
The ultimate fantasy of causing the extinction of a whole village by driving to work
dinosaurs never became oil/coal
some of them likely did, given the current theory of how oil happens. dead organic material is dead organic material.
there’s just more vegetation than animal matter.
Look I just learn stuff that college teaches me okay. So decaying trees, plants and animals (dinosaurs) are the primary source of oil. Oil is being made daily based on decaying organic material. This is why the planet has so much of it.
Useless shits
not with that attitude
I don’t even have a thagomizer.
Stegosaurus died out long before the K-T extinction event. They weren’t even good enough to survive to that point.
Yeah aren’t they one of the few animals that was actually a dinosaur and actually from the jurassic that people think of when they think of jurassic dinosaurs?
Do people ever actually think of the Jurassic period though, or do they just live in a society where Jurassic Park and Jurassic World have made that period’s name synonymous with dinosaurs?
people still think we’re invincible
Who? The peons concerned about climate change and ecosystem collapse? Or the billionaires injecting kids’ blood into themselves, launching rockets to colonize Mars, or begging for donations to get them into the right afterlife?
If they’re so great, how come I use their goo to spend 4 hours a day stuck in traffic?
That goo, once burned is what is causing global warming.
The dinosaur’s curse for not letting them rest in peace…
The goo is trees that were buried before bacteria and fungi learned to eat hydrocarbons. 0% dinosaurs.
Well, I mean, I can probably only guarantee no more than 3% dinosaur.
Whoa whoa, if my car is getting a larger percentage of incidental dinosaur from its refined petroleum products than the percentage of incidental spider legs and rat shit I myself am getting from my processed food products, I am going to be totally jealous.
I know! And you should be. Industrial standards in the Carboniferous Period were seriously lax. All the upper management and lawyers were trilobites!
It was a rough time back then. But a simpler time…
Man… Imagine how fucked we would be if we burned mummies!
I mean people ate them so I’d say you know the answer to that…
Teriyaki flavored?
Bro this is stressing me out I’m gonna go snort some of granpappies mummy stash.
Algae?
Your car runs on algae?
Weird. I’ve just been shoving dinosaur bones into mine. 🤷♂️
Paleontologists hate this one weird trick!
Must be diesel. If you can get it to combust under high air pressure, a diesel will probably run off it.
I hope some future species burns our liquefied matrix black corpse goop, it’s what we deserve.
Well… its mostly plant and fungus goo actually
Still.
