I’m glad that palaeontologists decided to go with Brontosaurus in 2015. Apatosaurus just isn’t long term relationship material.
P.S. When this hit the focus groups (i.e., when I came up with the idea at 2am and woke up my partner by giggling uncontrollably and generally making a lot of noise and fuss for 2am so that he would ask what I was doing) it became apparent that not everyone just casually knows that “Brontosaurus” means “Thunder Lizard”. It does.
P.P.S Apatosaurus means “Deceptive Lizard”. Just saying.
Love it. I think you just made me compsog my nathus!
Hah! I don’t for certain what comsog my nathus means (I could make some interesting guesses) but I love it.
how are we saving dinosaurs? although I did think of that every time I eschew plastic bags, or plastic anything, or recycle, tho I suspect it is too late to “save” ’em, but any thing is allegedly possible.
Do you mean the ‘save a dinosaur’ text I have for writing a comment? Because silence kills them. So don’t be silent.
Although recycling couldn’t hurt.
Apatasaurus is a simp bitch who can’t even hold onto a girl. It’s about time he got that weak game out of here, man.
Ok I have actually written a comment twice for this post in the past week, but I kept submitting it when my internet wasn’t working and then the comment was lost!!
I love your Brontosaurus thunder god!! I hadn’t heard they decided to go back to using Brontosaurus, but I’m glad they did!! I always hated the name Apatosaurus!!
I freaking adore your site btw, it always makes me happy to read and to know you exist!
I’m glad you persevered with the comment! I love hearing nice things about me.
The best thing is that there is a species of Brontosaurus called Brontosaurus excelsus. Thunder Lizard Excelsior (well, close enough). Someone needs to inform Stan Lee and get a comic made.
How does Brontosaurus excelsus exist??? That’s such a freaking awesome name. Stan Lee definitely must be informed about Thunder Lizard Excelsior!
Oh also I need to add your link to my sidebar- I am actually THE WORST person in the world, sorry about that. I will add it this evening!!!
Haha. I should play it cool and act like I haven’t been waiting for it, but I’m so not cool. Never have been, never will be.
Eeee! There it is! I looked! My first proper advertising!
Thunder lizard has definitely been under-appreciated. No longer!
Coincidentally, my hat has a lizard on it. I literally just noticed my relevance to this whole conversation.
I approve of lizards on hats.
It’s honestly hard not too.
