I'm a teenage girl. But I don't try on dresses or spend hours on instagram or whatever everyone's doing nowadays. I play with plastic dinosaurs. I know it's something a first grade boy would do, but I still have a tub of them in my closet that I take out to battle sometimes. My favourite is the toy Parasaurolophus. I mean, yeah, it's a cool dinosaur, but there's a special reason it's my favourite. Now, it has a little label on it's stomach saying 'PARASAUROLOPHUS' in all capitals to teach little kids the name of it. That's the key. Because this dinosaur is not a Parasaurolophus. At least completely. Because the Parasaurolophus has a distinct head shape, which this toy does not. Basically, the manufacturer messed up the head of the toy, switching a Parasaurolophus head with a Pachycephalosaurus head, which basically is like a little spiny helmet. So it has a Parasaurolophus body and a Pachycephalosaurus head, making it the ultimate dinosaur to me. Trivial, but just comes to show that... actually I don't know. I just like dinosaurs. And manufacturing mistakes.

no one talks of the cambrian explosion guys, no one makes a film about the silurian or the carboniforous. just those dinosaurs. and why? because they all went extinct? because they were big and angry?

don't make me laugh.

the real reason why all the other epochs get barely a mention, is because the dinos are still around.

yes. it's true!

the big mesozoic lobby is a bunch of live and kicking sauropods, who camouflage themselves and make it a point of hogging all the attention.

they know, those monsters, that one day, someone is going to build a park. say, call it 'the garden of the jurassic'..something catchy like that. and the monent someone does, they will get their old happy world back.

dinossaurs are like that. they dont want any attention to protomammals, or amphibiants. keep them down.

dinosaurs are also very good at making changes and adapting rapidly to the environment. you may think that they don't, but those evil bastards survived meteors and volcanos and just beushed it off. do you really think they will save a place for the world they are building? not you, and not any mammal, whom they resent and loath.

on the pkus side, dinosaurs are really good when you grill them. some oil, seasoning, and just let them ride the machine.

enjoy biting in, as long as we can.
