Sorry if you're into arcane dinosaurs but there's like hundreds of dinosaurs.

Abbott, Monday, 10 December 2007 21:24 (seventeen years ago)

Apatosaurus and brontosaurus are the same dinosaur!!

Mark C, Monday, 10 December 2007 21:24 (seventeen years ago)

Per thread title, I would like to vote for the Dianosaur. Do you think it'll ever get together with the Samosaur? They have such chemistry.

Dude Abbott you picked some hell of top end dinosaurs, I can't choose

Mark C, Monday, 10 December 2007 21:33 (seventeen years ago)

allosaur is like a mini-T Rex/big velociraptor, right?

Jordan, Monday, 10 December 2007 21:46 (seventeen years ago)

Tricera Tops, the clue is in the name

Oh my, I didn't mean for this poll to end in May. Means I'll get a flashback surprise at the end of spring semester though. "God, this thread looks great! I love dinosaurs. OH MY GOD I DID THAT!"

Abbott, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:13 (seventeen years ago)

They're all so good. Take stegosaurus. Some totally boss T Rex is all gonna chomp on it and steg slowly shuffles around. "Wanting to eat my delicious body, eh? SPIKES FOR YOU!" TAIL IN FACE.

Abbott, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:15 (seventeen years ago)

ian OTM, also J. looks vaguely velociraptoresque in that photo

dan m, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:17 (seventeen years ago)

Triceratops, but with Stegosaurus in second place. I kind of wish that there was a dinosaur that was halfway between the two. I'd probably make one up myself if I were a Victorian paleontologist.

snoball, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:18 (seventeen years ago)

T. Rex's downfall is his absolutely silly-billy arms.

i heard it was a sycamore tree.

You cannot prevent sycamore tree if you cannot push it away with your two-fingered popsicle stick arms.

Sorry if you're into arcane dinosaurs but there's like hundreds of dinosaurs.

Yes but that makes this like a "What's your favorite car: Ford or Toyota?" poll...

Triceratops isn't "close enough" to Styracosaurus to get my vote. Not that I'm going with Styracosaurus for sure or anything. Good thing I WE have til May.

These are the classic (most recognizable) dinosaurs, the St. Franceses of Assisi to the styracosaurus's St. Fergna the White.

Abbott, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:46 (seventeen years ago)

Maybe by May all of the ones not listed here will have become extinct, anyway.

dell, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:47 (seventeen years ago)

yah, my friend got mad at me once because he was mega-into dinosaurs when he was a kid and he said that brontosaurus was a MYTH the skeleton they found was actually apatosaurus but they couldn't find the head so they slapped on some other dino's head and i said that was nonsense and of course there are brontosauruses

but apparently he's right and there is no such thing as brontosaurus. apatosaurus is almost the same but has a weird skull

sleepingbag, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:49 (seventeen years ago)

i couldn't decide, so i picked allosaur as a compromise :(

Jordan, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:50 (seventeen years ago)

i come home at night to a dinosaur that i feel nothing for

Jordan, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:50 (seventeen years ago)

Pterodactyl is the best one, yes?

Abbott, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:57 (seventeen years ago)

I saw part of an animated movie a while back where meteors came and dinosaurs were fleeing and a young dino with some proto-simians living on its back joined a kind of horrific forced march out of the burning wasteland: it was surprisingly hardcore. Except kind of distracting because some new dinosaur would come along and start talking and I'd be all like "that's not a DINOSAUR, that's RUBY DEE."

nabisco, Monday, 10 December 2007 22:57 (seventeen years ago)

Anyone who votes for anything other than Pterodactyl is an asshole.

If I could have a pet pterodactyl, I would no longer need dreams as they'd all have come true.

BigLurks, Saturday, 26 April 2008 23:05 (seventeen years ago)

voted again. I loves ALLLL the dianosaurs.

Upt0eleven, Saturday, 26 April 2008 23:31 (seventeen years ago)

My son chose Allosaurus. He is obsessed with dinosaurs, so his opinion bears more weight than mine.

Moodles, Sunday, 27 April 2008 16:16 (seventeen years ago)

Diplodocus (pron. dipp-ler-doh-cuss) was always my favourite, and gets my vote.

It's strange though. I loved dinosaurs when I was a lad, and I knew all about them. Then I grew up a bit, and didn't think about them for like, 25 years. And then I recently started hanging out with a 3 yr old and rediscovered dinos...and there are loads more now than there were when I was little! Which feels counterintuitive, to say the least.

I'd never even heard of apatosaurus though, and nowadays she seems to be one of the big names. She even gets to be in Harry's bucket!

JimD, Sunday, 27 April 2008 18:56 (seventeen years ago)

Apatosaurus is kind of The Artist Formerly Known As Brontosaurus. It was always a big-shot but there's kind of been a rebrand since we were kids.

Matt DC, Sunday, 27 April 2008 19:15 (seventeen years ago)

Scelidosaurus seems to be more popular than he used to be too (discovered years ago, but never mentioned when I was little). Meanwhile, whither Iguanadon?

JimD, Sunday, 27 April 2008 22:42 (seventeen years ago)

Aachenosaurus — actually a piece of petrified wood.

Great, thanks!
