- Now that’s some dank strains. Someone needs to be at out critical mass and blue dream, and I think we found our man… Facelikeapotato, we don’t deserve you, but we need you 
- Theres funny names for beetles though - Theres a beetle named after beyonce, iirc - There’s funny names for everything really. There is a gene that scientists named after sonic the hedgehog. 
- Cause it’s beetles all the way down 
 
- They better name a dinosaur after Skuntank! 
- we could continue to speak latin today… 
- I love stuff like this. Here are some real dinosaur/extinct creature names! - 
Sauroniops: Literally means Eye of Sauron 
- 
Dracorex Hogwartsia: Dragon King of Hogwarts 
- 
Thanos Simonattoi: after Thanos 
- 
Irritator Challengeri: he was hard to dig up and scientists were angry 
- 
Gasosaurus: discovered while a gas company was being built. 
- 
Gojirasaurus: self explanatory 
- 
Attenborosaurus: plesiosaurus named after David Attenborough. 
- 
Crichtonosaurus: similar to an ankylo and named after author of Jurassic Park 
- 
Bambiraptor sounds cute, and it’s named after the deer (because it was deer sized), but it was a fierce and deadly creature. 
 - There’s so many more; I could nerd out forever. I miss when I was a little girl, and people would actually talk to me about dinosaurs… 
- 
- Please, dinosaurs today would get 20 year corporate licenses. Arby’s-osaurus Rex; Modelo-dactyl — “for those with the flying spirit” 
- deleted by creator 
- Now advertising companies would pay to slap the name of their brand on dinosaurs: - Cocapteryx colacerus
- Teslasaurus muskatus
- Primeraptor amazonii
 - Don’t give them ideas! 
 
- I think it’s less that biologists stopped using Latin and more that we’re running out of Latin - Well then, invent more. - People keep saying it’s a dead language, but I keep seeing it around. Sounds more like a goddamn lazy language to me! - Not to ruin the moment here or anything but this is the first properly funny comment I’ve seen on Lemmy. I used to spend most of my time on Reddit just hunting around for funny comments so I feel like the transition is now complete, so thanks
