The larger ones would have been absolutely fucking terrifying:

One of the first we know of at least! And they looked much more bird-y than my fave Anchiornis:

Oh you mean the weird "dinosauroid" thing?

This has to be one of the most hilarious recreations I've seen:

Chickims qualify!

… I wonder what other dinosaurs tasted like?

Head butting problems to make them go away since 85.8 Mya

Right? And what's really wild is that birds are literally dinosaurs. Not just descended from dinosaurs, but classified as feathered theropods and the only known living dinosaurs

And their name means "egg thief"!

Thunder lizard! Brontosaur's another classic, ginormous boyes

If the Ankylosaurus was nature going "what if tank?" then the Parasaurolophus was nature going "what if dinosaur but cow?"

Completely understandable! They're a classic

Ain’t no cowboy gonna ride ol’ spiney.

"Semiaquatic dinosaur rodeo" is an underappreciated theme. Maybe we'll see it in the next Jurassic Park.

After a certain age people stop asking you what your favorite dinosaur is, and I think that's sad.

My current one's the Anchiornis, because it's in the same clade as birds so it's in their family tree, and it really looks like a prototype of a bird. It had 4 wings for example, but it already looked very birb-y:

(Figured I'd just turn an earlier comment into an actual post because why not)

Seriously, zero clue.

I'm not sure if I should be laughing or crying. Probably both.

Tämän on kyllä huomannut omista kokkaretutuista; yksi lähti jo sille linjalle, että sukupuolivähemmistöjen pelkkä olemassaolo on "kärjistävää" ja että lihaa syövää valkoinen hetero on kirjaimellisesti vainotuin "vähemmistö" – ihan epäironisesti. Toivoipa jo että kaikki vähemmistöt yksinkertaisesti katoaisivat jotenkin taianomaisesti, ei ilmeisesti kehdannut vielä julkisesti unelmoida mistään Endlösungista.

Persututtuja on nykyään enää todella vähän, ei ole puolin eikä toisin ollut kauheasti intoa olla tekemisissä enää toviin, tämmönen sateenkaareva hörhö kun olen ja heillä mielipiteet olleet jo tovin sitä luokkaa että mulla ei tartteisi olla ihmisoikeuksia lainkaan
