Funniest comments seen so far.

So it looks like I wouldn't have been able to score with a dinosaur, either...

"Upon discovering the new fossilised remains of this giant 50 foot high chick, we've decided to name it the Darylhannansaur"


<CavemanBob> AAAAUgHHhhHHh! Why can't you just SHUT UP?
<HugeChickRex> It was like, so hilarious! I hadn't realized I left that pizza there in there for a MONTH! *snort*
<CavemanBob> AAaaghghu I make you extinct now!


Oh the poor T.Rex...gone from being the most powerful and vicious creature imaginable - chasing down jeeps and eating lawyers and shaking the ground as it runs...then we hear that if it ran at more than 8 mph, it would fall over...then that if it ever did fall over, it couldn't get back up again...then they told us that it was merely a scavenger and not a hunter at all.

AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE A GIANT, FLUFFY YELLOW CHICK?!?

Nooooo!

T.Rex's had laser eyes, breathed fire and had enormous leathery batlike wings that don't show up in the fossil record because they were shed every year to grow new ones. They could run at 80mph and ate several Diploducus for breakfast every morning before having violent terratorial disputes that took up the rest of their days. At night they tracked down and ate cavemen. Their advanced (but brutal and inhumane) society dominated the earth for 20 million years and was only brought down by alien civilisations hurling giant flaming meteors at them from the safe distance of the Kyper belt.

OK - maybe I lost a bit of scientific detachment there - but..*REALLY*.


It's now Jurassic PA-KAAAWWK!

I wonder what she's doing now....
So sorry you have to learn it this way, but she's extinct. BTW don't you worry, just about everyone here on /. hasn't had a date in eons...

Damnit, I gotta read the SB forums more often. This is fascinating!
