Tyrant lizard king? No thanks, fuck the monarchy. Spinosaurus is cooler anyway (the modern depictions of him, not the terrible Jurassic Park version). hell yeah, look at that crocoduck and his powerful tail, I bet he could just smack T. rex with that tail and it would be over.

Did you know a crocodiles tail is just as dangerous at its jaws? That shit is pure muscle for swimming, it can break bones. Big heavy theropods like T. rex are fucked if they get a broken leg.

I prefer herbivorous dinosaurs though. Therozinosaurus is hilarious and I love him. BEHOLD

    The change in understanding of dinosaurs since I was a kid makes them so much cooler. The feathers (pseudo feathers? Idk) are badass. When I was a child I wanted to be a paleontologist and that probably would have been a bad career choice but it would have been neat to be on the cutting edge of all the advances in the last few decades

      Wow. Same. I wanted to be a paleontologist as well as a kid. I REALLY was huge into dinosaurs as a kid. I have to wonder how my life would look if I would have taken that childhood dream serious. Honestly such a cool job.
