and even better, some of those were small and could fly, they survived the extinctions and today we call them birds
At the end of the day, I'll ask my students if they have any questions. No hands will go up, I'll act a little disappointed and say, "You know, I'm always asking if you all have any questions, and no one ever asks what my favorite dinosaur is." and I just let it hang in the air.
Without fail, a hand will slowly go up, and I call on them. "What's your favorite dinosaur?" and I respond immediately with, "That doesn't count, it wasn't organic." and then I kick them all out of class.
Some of my favourite dinos:
ljook at all those chickenn
What's your favorite dinosaur? I've personally always been a huge ankylosaurus fan.
In all seriousness, my favorite is actually Ankylosaurus as well. These things just look so cool
I've always been partial to a Brontosaurus
The coolest moment of my life was when my favorite dinosaur, the coelacanth, was discovered to still be alive. I was obsessed with this little known fish (for kids, no idea if it was better known among adults) and was super proud to be able to spell it, and then they found one!
And I told you that story because I so rarely get to, because nobody asks adults about their favorite dinosaur.
Just do an AMA, there's a user that always asks about favorite dinosaurs.
i did an ama and no one asked me that
Call me classic but I love stegosaurus. Such a cool profile, chill herbivore with literal tomahawks on the back. Other favourites include plesiosaurus (I know, don't fucking test me) and kulinda dromeus
The Triceratops were objectively the coolest. I will fight u.
I'm just going to point out that [email protected] exists, and !triceratops does not.
That's because the giant cow rhinos don't need the extra marketing, they're just that cool 😎💅
uhmmmmm parasaurolophus????
Hmmm... Close second🤔
then you gotta be like "shhh don't tell anyone but CHICKENS ARE SECRETLY DINOS"
All nuggies are dino nuggies!
What was your formative dinosaur media as a young kid?
This 1980 claymation/cartoon/live action short called Dinosaur was absolutely hypnotic to me as a kid. The scenes with all the hooting and howling in the jungle were so intense for my little 4 year old mind!
Land Before Time was a big one for me. But even bigger was probably the documentary series Walking With Dinosaurs. Which is available to watch for free on archive.org!
Land Before Time and its one bajillion sequels, which regularly aired on Brazilian Cartoon Network
"Borned"
Seriously?
I will start calling it 'birthinated' specifically to spite you :3
Blew up? Didn't they freeze to death during the ice age?
Shhhhhhh, it's a funni shitpost, the sky also didn't explode. There was a meteor and it did things that caused climate change.
Ha, fair enough
