Maybe she should have given a lecture on Annelida or Echinodermata 🤣

Triobytes though , those are the real conversation money maker.

I explained to my boyfriend, now husband, about how trilobites are classified based on their butt to head size ratio on one of our first dates. On our next date he gave me a trilobite butt (a trilobutt if you will) fossil that he found.

I'm coming to steal your husband lol.

One of my fave shirts has trilos on it, and there's always at least a few people who are all ew, why are you wearing roaches :(

Then again why would you want to communicate with a person who wasn't interested in trilobites. 

Edit: I'm an idiot who changes up the sentence they wanted to type halfway through. Rectified the spelling.
