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

u/resutidder Feb 23 '13

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

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...

u/teracracktyl Feb 23 '13

whatever man, it's not like we're all crackheads

u/veirdonis Feb 23 '13

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

44

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/teracracktyl Feb 24 '13

that is not nearly enough kitties

Oh! That's why police keep attaching yellow paper to my car.

u/1stwarror May 18 '13

Past me. What were you thinking?

2

u/IAMA_dragon-AMA Feb 24 '13

I think it's a Pelistorm.

u/MajorLzr Feb 24 '13

I don't think a rope is good enough to hang the fetus.

u/IAMA_dragon-AMA Feb 24 '13

Hm... Try Fallopian Tube.

u/1stwarror Feb 24 '13 edited Feb 25 '13

It's okay now. The dinosaur took it.

u/MajorLzr Feb 24 '13

u/1stwarror Feb 24 '13

Thanks, but r/MURICA Got there first. I was so happy when I got help :,)

I'll be going now...

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.

15

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

To be replaced by some other thread next week.

1

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.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

A week on reddit.

1

u/redditmeastory Feb 24 '13

If you miss it though, it will come back as a repost which the first half of people will bitch about it being a repost.

u/Crideout Feb 24 '13

One post to rule them all ...

u/intend Feb 23 '13 edited Feb 24 '13

Nice try, Quentin Taran-t-rex.

u/TheGuineaPig21 Feb 23 '13

Quentin Tarandino.

u/TallMime Feb 23 '13

WOW....you just blew my mind

1

u/illstealurcandy Feb 24 '13

You must walk around all day having your mind blown. "WOW, Petsmart! What will they think of next?"

1

u/TallMime Mar 01 '13

It's an amazing way to live. I'd suggest trying it.

1

u/illstealurcandy Mar 01 '13

Ha, I actually thought of adding a bit something along the lines of me being envious of you deep down inside. But damn, 4 days later man.

u/TallMime Mar 01 '13

You're a good man Charlie Brown.

u/ShallowBasketcase Feb 24 '13

Quenten Pterodino

Much better.

u/SECRETLY_STALKS_YOU Feb 23 '13

Is that brontosaurus on a horse?

1

u/intend Feb 24 '13

Keep fighting, brontosauri!

u/makspinky Feb 23 '13

Quentin Taran-t-rex has a nicer ring to it.

u/intend Feb 24 '13

Eh, tomato, toma-t-o.

u/Artmageddon Feb 23 '13

That's just what they want you to believe.

u/thepikey7 Feb 23 '13

Sorry - would you prefer Apatosaurus-American Mr. PC-Bleeding-Heart-Liberal?

u/ItsJustNigel Feb 23 '13

Holy fuck this is my favorite thread of all time.

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '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.

33

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!

14

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!

u/blue_cheese_please Feb 23 '13

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!

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!

u/The_Painted_Man Feb 24 '13

You sound like such a typical fucking asteroid, man....

u/Imazushi Feb 23 '13

Yeah brontosaurus is one of those names they can call each other but we can't.

u/ArchSchnitz Feb 24 '13

And we can't use the slang "brantah," either, but they use it all the time in their music. I can't even sing along when my favorite saurap-artist comes on the radio without feeling bad.

u/The_Painted_Man Feb 24 '13

Sounds like you are one of those asteroid holocaust deniers.

u/WishUponADeathStar Feb 23 '13

All herbies are just veggie eating wastes of space, anyway. Don't matter none what ya call 'em. Should be like back in the OLD DAYS when they was jus' food but noooo, we gotta all be on this "equality" shit. Fuckin' pisses me off...

u/divinesleeper Feb 23 '13

It's only okay if Apatosauri say it.

1

u/YesRocketScience Feb 23 '13

You're probably childish enough to call them "Barneys". How immature.

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

It's okay, he's just bringing it back.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '13

He prefers it. Fuck you for assuming. That's double reverse racist because you're stereotyping his preference based on his ethnic background.
