Wow the writer really hated Stegosaurus for no reason

[–] AJ1@lemmy.ca 4 points 19 hours ago

reminds me of that sunfish copypasta that came out all those years ago and influenced an entire generation of sunfish haters

The author of that article:
A direct descendant of Thag Simmons.

To be fair, those Thagomizers are brutal

I demand a public apology for this calamitous affront.

🤓 did you know the Stegosaurus was as old to the t rex as the t rex is too us 🦖 that's a rock fact

The boldness to wear frosted tips in the Late Jurassic. Stego is my fave.

Stegosaurus was a weird looking critter but that's only because of the secret message hidden in every photo of him.

Amateur. Took literal eons for someone to say this about Stegasour. I've gotten people to say this about me in my short lifetime.

Fuck you, they were badass.

I'm something of a grotesque freak of nature, myself.
