Same for cleopatra and the pyramids

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Wait, why would a T-rex fight Cleopatra and the pyramids?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

For the implication.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they meant if the T-Rex fought Cleopatra for the pyramids.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm confused. What does that have to do with a unicycle?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Ride it down the side of the pyramid...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Does it really need a reason?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They just have a born hatred of regular shaped objects. They don't like order and seek to destroy it.

For dominance or feeding rights over a fresh kill.

They were ancient when she was ruling Egypt

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exactly, she would be better represented riding a monocycle than having anything to do with the pyramids.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why? She would have clearly known about them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I was thinking the same. People are probably mixing up the being alive during the construction of the pyramids with coexisting with them. Even us today coexist with the pyramids and could be accurately pictured around them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lincoln certainly knew of the pyramids, but is rarely depicted with them

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Was Lincoln Queen of Egypt for long?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh gosh I don't know what his kinks were

The pyramids riding a unicycle is a new one

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't know that most people can tell the difference between an Allosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Haha yeah dinosaur go rawr

never did, they just didnt have the organ that most panthers use to roar, or even anything similar.

most non-avian dinosaurs could only do deep and hissing sounds, similar to today's crocodiles. the exceptions to that being parasaurolophus and that one ankylosaurid that might have an organ similar to the one birds use to make sounds (though still not roaring)

Don't get me started on the general public's recognition of the Somosaurus.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's one which looks like the sugmasaurus?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

It's often confused with the mighty ligmasaurus.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I apologize, but is that spelled correctly? I am finding several variations of the spelling with wildly different creatures.

Simosaurus versus Siamosaurus versus Sonorasaurus

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is not real. I was riffing on allosaurus.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Shit. I am a bit shocked how many critters have names similar for a random riff. 😂

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

whos somosaurus

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Is the one on the photo missing some tooth?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago

It took him a few tries to get confident on the electric unicycle.

And his arms didn't protect him when he fell.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

He’s from the south, his name is Cletus.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean technically a thesaurus could've fought both

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago

That’s just ridiculous, goofy, supercilious, absurd, laughable, comical, ludicrous, chucklesome, and risible.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if you made a movie where George Washington defeated the British with tactical nukes while wearing a cowboy out it would still be more accurate than Braveheart

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

What? You mean to tell me that there should have been a bridge at the Battle of Stirling Bridge?!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Same for cavemen fighting dinosaurs, since humans came along long after dinosaurs went extinct. Not that I don't love Ray Harryhausen's work.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

So what's the verdict, are the electric unicycles cool? Have they broken the curse? They do look cool, and you better be wearing the full motorcycle getup if you know what's good for you, because they're fast as f too.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Dimetrodon is my favorite dinosaur.
