Thanking the dinosaurs

You may say I'm "doing it wrong then" but it's a fact: 250,000,000 years ago the Placoderm [an armour-plated fish] invented the act of sex as we know it. Thank you Placoderms.

Do you have a species of dinosaur that you'd like to thank?

No, I am not satirizing the horribly out-of-date discotheque called The Aquarium in Colchester.

Spoilt my retort!

I’d like to thank Tyrannosaurus Rex for lending it’s name to a cool 1970s pop/rock band.

Maybe there's somebody who'd like to thank Tyrannosaurus Rex for lending it’s name to a cool 1970s pop/rock band?

I thought so.

That's something that stegosauruses started.

I think that generally speaking dinosaurs are the coolest animals to have ever lived. Big, bad ass, scary etc and they cause YECs to contort into all sorts of shapes.

And for all the smart alecs who might ask if this is autobiographical, all I will say is an unequivocal no comment.

This gratitude is too broad and generic.

I remember reading something several years ago about a guy in America who got thrown out of a Christian museum, which depicted humans and dinosaurs co-existing, for jumping on the Triceratops model and trying to ride it.

You expect me to list every dinosaur which has ever lived in order to posthumously thank each one of them?

Some of them weren't as good as you'd have people believe. There were underwhelming ones.
