It is more chronologically accurate to show a t-rex being hit by a car than it is to show a t-rex eating a stegosaurus

I said I'm sorry. But if you're going to let your T-Rex out at night you should at least put a reflective collar on it.

Hi, I was just calling because I live down the street from you, and your daughter come to my house today and she kick my t-rex.

Your daughter come to my house today, And she come on my property and then she kick my t-rex. And now my t-rex needs operation.

The only interaction I've seen between a T-Rex and a collar is that one scene from The Lost World. Based on what I saw there, I have to assume that collars wouldn't really work for them.

This is the comparison I was looking for. It’s great to explain that media shows them together but untrue, it is a totally different idea to explain the staggering time difference between the two.

And people mocked me for my human-tyrannosaur slashfic on ao3. Well, who's laughing now?

You made me scroll up to the picture again, looking for a T-Rex or a car
