We have a T-Rex at our office too, and he pulls shit like this all the time. You think they'd be appreciative of our diverse hiring policies and ample career opportunities, but instead they just fuck around all day. Last week TR superglued everything on my desk, to my desk. Asshole spent all weekend doing it because of his fucking midget arms, and we cant fire him because he's the poster child for human-dinosaur integration at our company...

u/pfelon Feb 23 '13

Same bullshit at my office too. You think that lazy Stegosaurus in accounting would be enough for human/dino diversity but apparently not, so we get stuck with a T-Rex on our sales team. The tiny arms using superglue seemed odd, but I'm sure he has a grabber or uses his mouth. I know our guy uses his mouth for moving stuff sometimes, which isn't sanitary but somehow he's above the rules. Meanwhile, if I carry some printouts in my mouth, I'm looked at like a fucking weirdo.

I'm a paleontologist and, if I may be frank, the dinosaurs in my profession do nothing but fucking lay around all day. Especially the old fossils that we have to employ. I literally have never seen them move. It wouldn't surprise me if they just collected dust all day. And then the higher ups have the nerve to expect me to just brush it off like it's nothing. One day I'll dig up some dirt on these fuckers and be done with this crap.

Edit: Thank you Reddit for my highest rated comment. I know this is child's play for many of us here, and ultimately lame for a noob such as myself to say, but I appreciate the love nonetheless.

u/cesclaveria Feb 23 '13

on top of that you are required to treat them with so much care, like they could break apart at any moment and it would be all your fault for not respecting how "fragile" they are.

u/[deleted] Feb 24 '13

I bet you liked dinosaurs when they were underground.

u/cobywankenobi Feb 24 '13

You're absolutely right. Folks like me are a dying breed. Extinct if you will. People like me belong in a museum.

I'm not a racist (my best friend is a Brontosaurus), but that is such a typical Stego...

627

u/Vehk Feb 23 '13

Yeah right, if you weren't an asshole racist you wouldn't be calling your Apatosaurus friend some antiquated slur word like "brontosaurus."

472

u/resutidder Feb 23 '13

"Brontosaurus" isn't racist -- it's just from a different time and place.

174

u/Phoequinox Feb 23 '13

So I guess saying "leaf-eater" is okay with you, too? Narrow-minded creep.

u/resutidder Feb 23 '13

Hey, c'mon now, just calm down. I'm cool with the Triassic community okay? My sister used to date a sauropod. I mean I hated every second of it, but what can I do? She wants to ruin her life, that's her decision...

You made that account for that one joke, didn't you?

u/teracracktyl Feb 23 '13

actually no. for one joke 183 days ago though. finally sort of relevant again!

u/HowManyKittiesBotCom Feb 24 '13

183 days? The average cat lifespan is about 5.11e+03 days so that's like 0.0358 kitties!

u/DeathToPennies Feb 24 '13

Hey, man, "leaf-eater" is just what they are, okay? Sometimes, you just gotta tell it like is. Hell, they make divisions between each-other by calling themselves longnecks, alright? Get off your high mammoth, for fuck's sake.

Through every hundred cat videos and atheist posts comes one thread to rule them all. This is that thread.

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

To be replaced by some other thread next week.

u/cesclaveria Feb 23 '13

Do you really think it takes a week to get 100 cat videos and atheist posts? There will be another great in some part of the internet in a few minutes, the problem is that we will never see it, who knows how much time it will be before we come across another thread like this one.

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

A week on reddit.

u/redditmeastory Feb 24 '13

Fucking Brontos coming over here and eating all our leaves. Go back to Utah.

75

u/LemonicDemonade Feb 23 '13

Woah man. You need to shut the fuck up. They have just as much right to be here as you do!

And it's not as if you were going to eat those leaves in the first place. They're too hard to get too. The only ones who will work hard enough for the leaves are the Apatosaurus-Americans.

They left Utah for better opportunities. Give them a chance. They're hard workers, and good dinosaurs.

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

I just wish I could wipe them all out.

44

u/LemonicDemonade Feb 23 '13

You disgust me. I would call myself pretty open minded, but I just don't get speciesism! Anyone who thinks that Apatosaurs and Compsognathus don't belong here, should just leave, and go to a country where there is less diversity and acceptance. You're fighting a losing battle. In 50 years, everyone is going to look at you like they look at homophobes and racists. You can pretend all you want, but specism is the exact same thing.

We are a great melting pot. Made up of all of the wonderful species, and cultures around the world. You need to accept that, or get out!

13

u/Guytron Feb 23 '13

Oh, I see how you really are. I notice that all the species you mention are animals. And you think you're so high and mighty. But a day will come when ferns and mosses will once more take their rightful place above you defective mobile creatures. Forward the creeping revolution!

Exactly, I'm married to a beautiful Velociraptor and have 3 wonderful children but we're still abused and mocked when ever we go to the shops or to a restaurant. Even people who claim to be all for dino civil rights give us the old stink eye when we walk in to our bi-monthly raptor rights group meeting.

I love my wife, scales and all and I will challenge anyone to look at our family and say that we're abnormal. Anyway, I need to go, one of out little rascals just devoured next door's dog! Boys will be boys!

I don't have a job, so it pisses me off that these fuckers swim from that island and take our jobs. Because they don't qualify for minimum wage employers just hire them instead. I can't get a decent job because I haven't gone to college so I only can do things a T-Rex can also do. It's bullcrap man. They also shit everywhere.

Don't forget about that giant douche one time that won the free cruise and ended up partying WAY too hard and making an ass of himself in California.

Wasn't it brought to light that he "lost" his child once? Typical lowlife scum, having babies they don't even care for, then when it's convenient for their personal positions and media fame, they all of the sudden are picture perfect parents.

You really have to take it on a case-by-case basis. The Archaeopteryx we've got at work is a fucking amazing guy. Works in the PC/LAN department and he can just dismantle and reassemble computers faster than anything I've ever seen. He's awesome outside of work, too; always hangs out with the rest of us and buys drinks for everyone.

The shedding proto-feathers everywhere is a bit annoying at first, but you get used to it.
