Under an air burst nuke
(lemmy.world)
Or the rexes mourning their own fate and that of their curled-up baby rex in its nest as Chicxulub hurtles toward them in their final moments.
Or maybe they're two hard working rexes toiling at the sawmill
Dude. You need to paint this. It's a perfect art project. Make sure the outline is clearly the nativity scene, but color in the dinosaurs...
I think you just won the internet for the day. This is the best image I've seen all year.
Full disclaimer, this isn't mine. I just searched for it because I knew someone probably already did it. Note that the date of upload is 10 years ago.
Fair 'nuff. Still an awesome find, had to show my friends.
Well shit, that's awesome.
Oh. Shit. I want to do that now but am right in the middle of things.
I'ma let that percolate in the back of my mind until it festers into a compulsion.
Thank you for the suggestion.
If you ever do it, post it here and dm me your PayPal and I'll send ya $20.
I'll keep it on the books
This is an oldie but a goodie. Someone puts one of those up at one of the entrances to our subdivision ever Christmas and I always chuckle thinking about it when I drive by.
I can't see what the thing in the middle is supposed to be besides a table saw, but I can't see the rexes either, just people praying. Why would they pray over a table saw?
they're Priests of the Long Cut.
They also worship the track saw, the rip saw, and the industrial full slab planers.
The face and hands are the jaws of the trex
Thank you. I had no idea what that was supposed to be.
Dinosaurs aren't real, they can't hurt you. But table saws don't fuck around.
Dinosaurs are, in fact, real and they can, in fact, hurt you. Especially don't fuck with this one:
I stand corrected, I know what those things sound like and it's scary
About as descriptive as calling it a tetrapod tho
However both are still technically correct, the best kind of correct.
Dinosaurs are dinosaurs.
Eukaryotes are Eukaryotes.
"Birds are living dinosaurs, just as we are mammals," said Julia Clarke, a paleontologist studying the evolution of flight and a professor with the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin.
In spite of the physical differences that distinguish all mammals from other species, every animal in that group — living and extinct — can trace certain anatomical characteristics to a common ancestor. And the same is true for birds, Clarke told Live Science.
"They're firmly nested in that one part of the dinosaur tree," she said. "All of the species of birds we have today are descendants of one lineage of dinosaur: the theropod dinosaurs."

Think I'll go with the paleontologist on this one.
I am not disagreeing. Birds are dinosaurs. But it's not a particularly useful way of understanding them for the average person. You might as well be extremely insistent that they're chordates. Do you remind people that trees aren't a taxonomic group every time they come up in conversation?
Do you remind people that trees aren't a taxonomic group every time they come up in conversation?
I don't, but I try to.
You're right. The Aussies lost to emus after all!
Don't say that within hearing range of an Emu.
The demon core killed the dinos :(
Ha I’ll never unsee that now!!
You mean you can never unsaw it.
Now I can't see anything else
I never saw anything but two dinos.
What if we fought to the death under the airburst nuke?
All I can see now
I unironically saw one of these and could not for the life of me see anything other than the t-rex's. I thought it was odd, but also better than the other decorations.
KT extinction en route!
You're all wrong. That's two T-rexes about to eat Eric Cartman.
