Same for cleopatra and the pyramids

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 54 points 10 months ago

Wait, why would a T-rex fight Cleopatra and the pyramids?

[-] veroxii@aussie.zone 13 points 10 months ago

For the implication.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I think they meant if the T-Rex fought Cleopatra for the pyramids.

Does it really need a reason?

[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

They just have a born hatred of regular shaped objects. They don't like order and seek to destroy it.

For dominance or feeding rights over a fresh kill.

[-] Johanno@feddit.de 23 points 10 months ago

They were ancient when she was ruling Egypt

[-] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

Exactly, she would be better represented riding a monocycle than having anything to do with the pyramids.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Why? She would have clearly known about them.

[-] nossaquesapao@lemmy.eco.br 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I was thinking the same. People are probably mixing up the being alive during the construction of the pyramids with coexisting with them. Even us today coexist with the pyramids and could be accurately pictured around them.

The pyramids riding a unicycle is a new one

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 37 points 10 months ago

I don't know that most people can tell the difference between an Allosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

[-] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 29 points 10 months ago

Haha yeah dinosaur go rawr

never did, they just didnt have the organ that most panthers use to roar, or even anything similar.

most non-avian dinosaurs could only do deep and hissing sounds, similar to today's crocodiles. the exceptions to that being parasaurolophus and that one ankylosaurid that might have an organ similar to the one birds use to make sounds (though still not roaring)

Don't get me started on the general public's recognition of the Somosaurus.

[-] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago

That's one which looks like the sugmasaurus?

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

It's often confused with the mighty ligmasaurus.

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I apologize, but is that spelled correctly? I am finding several variations of the spelling with wildly different creatures.

Simosaurus versus Siamosaurus versus Sonorasaurus

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

It is not real. I was riffing on allosaurus.

whos somosaurus

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 30 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Now I just wanna see the T-Rex fighting a stegosaurus while both are riding unicycles.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 55 points 10 months ago
[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 35 points 10 months ago

Clearly this is not a fight but a family picture. You can see their hybrid kids in the background.

The kids in back just want mom and dad to stop fighting.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 4 points 10 months ago

Oh hey, it's me, one of the kids.

[-] Gigan@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago
[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 5 points 10 months ago

And yet I can't get the damn AI to get anything close to the scene in trying to get it to draw for me for my D&D campaign, being one that could conceivably exist in the real world.

Google's is especially hilarious. Even just the word "waterfall" and it complains that it would be against the terms of service.

I guess there were no pedals in the training data 😆.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Telepathic unicycle burnouts

We truly are living in the future aren't we?

TIL that electric unicycles exist...

[-] zarquon@lemm.ee 22 points 10 months ago

They are so much fun. On a related note I've broken my wrist twice since discovering that.

[-] ComplacentGoat@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

Over 10k miles here, not a scratch. My brother though, he's biffed it at 45mph. Got back up and kept riding. These things are awesome

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Is the one on the photo missing some tooth?

[-] Sigh_Bafanada@lemmy.world 36 points 10 months ago

It took him a few tries to get confident on the electric unicycle.

And his arms didn't protect him when he fell.

[-] Wermhatswormhat@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

He’s from the south, his name is Cletus.

[-] dylanTheDeveloper@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

I mean technically a thesaurus could've fought both

[-] darkpanda@lemmy.ca 27 points 10 months ago

That’s just ridiculous, goofy, supercilious, absurd, laughable, comical, ludicrous, chucklesome, and risible.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

if you made a movie where George Washington defeated the British with tactical nukes while wearing a cowboy out it would still be more accurate than Braveheart

Same for cavemen fighting dinosaurs, since humans came along long after dinosaurs went extinct. Not that I don't love Ray Harryhausen's work.

[-] jayrodtheoldbod@midwest.social 10 points 10 months ago

So what's the verdict, are the electric unicycles cool? Have they broken the curse? They do look cool, and you better be wearing the full motorcycle getup if you know what's good for you, because they're fast as f too.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 10 months ago

The cycles themselves look cool, but I have seen enough people riding them to say with confidence you still don't look cool on them.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 5 points 10 months ago

It's always middle aged white dudes.

[-] s_s@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

Dimetrodon is my favorite dinosaur.
