head-explosion disease: curable? hopefully curable, if caught in the early stages of explosion T-Rex: Guys, I could die tomorrow! But that's not the worst of it! / T-Rex: I COULD TOTALLY BE DYING RIGHT NOW. / T-Rex:And I'm not even talking about that "we're all dying every second of our life" thing because YEAH, OBVIOUSLY, we're all dying all the time, thanks for reminding me, Captain I Say Stupid Things At Parties. I meant that I could be in the first stages of head explosion disease or any other affliction that can end a life suddenly and without warning! Right this instant! / Utahraptor: Yeah, but the same goes for all of us! / T-Rex: That's supposed to make me feel better? / T-Rex: That any one of my friends could die without a moment's notice? Oh, thanks, I feel way better now! / Utahraptor: It wasn't supposed to cheer you up, T-Rex. / Utahraptor: It was supposed to warn you. / T-Rex (coming out of a thought): Well, I'd like to thank last night for that little dream, as well as the movie I watched before bed for the inspiration! / T-Rex: Oh! And my subconscious for these waking nightmares that haunt me still!

The punch that can punch other punches T-Rex: Dromiceiomimus, come quick! I think I might be... / T-Rex: ...A GENIUS! / Dromiceiomimus: Um, why do you think you're a genius, T-Rex? / T-Rex: A few reasons! The main one is I heard that genius is the ability to come up with concepts that would otherwise have to be taught, and I'VE TOTALLY DONE THAT. Remember? Remember Punchette, The Power Punch Bear? / Dromiceiomimus: ...No? / T-Rex: Yeah you do! The bear with the punch...that punched other punches! / Utahraptor: Anyone could have come up with that! / T-Rex: I respectfully disagree! / T-Rex: Anyone intelligent could have come up with a "power punch", sure, but imagining a bear that can punch other punches? That requires what can only be called..."super genius". / Utahraptor: Wish fulfillment / T-Rex: ... / T-Rex: What just happened

t-rex's original fantasy was spider-man saying T-Rex: Whatever dudes! I'm pretty sure I'm a genius over here. / T-Rex: And when a genius is pretty sure, that's like ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY for regular folks! / T-Rex: Oh, regular folks. I call them "norms", Dromiceiomimus. / Dromiceiomimus: Ah. / T-Rex: Sometimes... / T-Rex: Sometimes I call them "The clouds that must be there to truly appreciate the sun". / Utahraptor: So what do you do with your genius? / T-Rex: Oh man! ANYTHING I WANT!! / Utahraptor: Okay - impress me! Use your genius. / T-Rex: I warn you, Utahraptor: what happens next may BLOW YOUR MIND. / Utahraptor: I'm ready. Amaze me. / Narrator: SHORTLY: / Batman [[in T-Rex's thought bubble]]: If I were a woman, T-Rex, when we could TOTALLY DATE. / Utahraptor: T-Rex? You haven't said anything in a few - / T-Rex: I'm busy!!

"first off, you need to play him HANDSOMER" T-Rex: Alright everyone! Let's do our friggin' TAXES again, okay? / T-Rex: Let's do them every year until we die, okay? / T-Rex: And let's continue to pretend computers don't exist and that relying on PAPER RECEIPTS for proof of taxable expenses is a really awesome idea. / Dromiceiomimus: What's your alternative, a government keeps track of all your money and does your taxes for you? / T-Rex: I do recognize that's bad, but it's a FUTURE bad that must be weighed against the PRESENT bad of taxes being totally stupid and I hate them. / Utahraptor: Hi, my name's T-Rex and I'm complaining about taxes again! Surprised? / T-Rex: Oh, hello T-Rex! / T-Rex: My name's Utahraptor, and I'M gonna say something holier-than-thou soon about taxes being a privelege to pay as they allow society to function. I kinda like being way BETTER than everyone else, you know? / Utahraptor: No, actually - I wouldn't know. / T-Rex: ... Okay! I wanna be T-Rex again now! / T-Rex: You're MESSING HIM UP

ASK ME WHAT DIRECTION PURGATORY IS IN SO THAT I MIGHT FLEX WHILE POINTING YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION T-Rex: God, you're omnipotent, right? Which means you can do ANYTHING? / God: SURE - I GUESS / T-Rex: Super! / T-Rex: Then I would like for you to create... A ROCK SO HEAVY THAT YOU COULD NEVER LIFT IT!! / God: OKAY DONE. / T-Rex: What? You just did it? / God: YES AND LET ME TELL YOU - THIS - MY FRIEND - IS ONE HEAVY ROCK / T-Rex: Man, that was SUPPOSED to illustrate the paradox of omnipotence! / Utahraptor: Ah, yes! / Utahraptor: If you can do anything, then you can do things that prevent yourself from doing other things and therefore you can't do anything. / T-Rex: Yeah, except I asked God to make a rock he couldn't lift, and he did! / Utahraptor: Well, this could mean he's not omnipotent anymore! / God: NO MAN I CHANGED MYSELF SO I CAN LIFT IT AND NOW I'M SO RIPPED THAT WHEN I FLEX MY SHIRT TEARS OPEN - THE REAL QUESTION IS CAN I MAKE A SHIRT SO TOUGH THAT MY NEW MUSCLES WON'T TEAR IT - PRETTY SURE THE ANSWER IS NOPE

The near future is gonna be great, Utahraptor! Tomorrow's nothing but ice cream on wheels. / Utahraptor: NICE. / Narrator: THE END

friendkapow, friendkapower, friendkapowest T-Rex: We're reaching a point where gendering professional nouns is not usually considered acceptable. / T-Rex: There's no more "poetesses" or "cartoonistellas", you guys! / T-Rex: But I'm not sure we should give up on professional suffixes so quickly. Sure, maybe indicating gender is pass?, but we can still indicate other things! / Dromiceomimus: Like what? / T-Rex: Like, say, SEXUAL ATTRACTIVENESS? A lawyer can practice law, but a lawyerkapow can practice law AND looks super hot doing it!! / Utahraptor: How is this close to a good idea? / T-Rex: Maybe you're tired of not knowing if a given lawyer is super hot! / Utahraptor: Then you can look at the lawyer and make your own decision! Tying someone's physical appearance to their job is terrible. How'd you feel if everyone in your class was a studentkapow, but you were just a student? / T-Rex: I don't know, probably DAZZLED BY THE RAW PHYSICALITY OF EVERYONE AROUND ME? / Utahraptor: You know, I keep forgetting I need to say "how do you think OTHERS would feel" and not "how would you feel" for questions like this. / T-Rex: Yep! / T-Rex: And I keep forgetting to remind you!

sometimes you need to look in the mirror and say "my friend, i won't talk about last week if you don't." Narrator: SELF IMPROVEMENT / T-Rex: Sometimes you need to look in the mirror and say "That, my friend, is someone with some friggin' FLAWS." / T-Rex: It sucks, but you have to do it at least sometimes! / T-Rex: Then the next thing you have to do is improve yourself. For example, if you look in the mirror and say "Man, that guy's totally underinformed about world events", then you should follow the news more. / Dromiceiomimus: What are your flaws, T-Rex? / T-Rex: Aha! A trick question! For you see, I ran this exercise JUST THIS MORNING and have thus removed all flaws! / Utahraptor: Okay, what flaws did you remove then? / T-Rex: Two of them, actually! / T-Rex: The first one was that I was TOO HANDSOME, so I just raised my standards some. Now I'm just the right amount of handsome. / Utahraptor: Uh-huh. And the second? / T-Rex: "Too Many Pants".

really happy with how "assassination" was broken up into two lines in this comic, thank you english T-Rex: We think time travel might not be possible -- RIGHT NOW, ANYWAY -- because we don't see any tourists from the future! / T-Rex: But man, what makes us so interesting? / T-Rex: I propose that it's more reasonable to find events from HISTORY that are objectively interesting, and look for time travellers there! / Dromiceiomimus: Only we can't visit these events without being time travellers ourselves. / T-Rex: But we can do the next best thing: look for historical events that WOULD'VE been interesting if only they'd gone slightly differently! / Utahraptor: You're looking for examples of historical meddling BY time travellers! / T-Rex: Dude, I'VE ALREADY FOUND ONE. / T-Rex: Jaunuary 30, 1835: dude pulls a gun on then-president Jackson and shoots him at point-blank range, but his gun misfires. So dude pulls out his BACKUP gun, and that one misfires TOO. It's incredibly unlikely! / Utahraptor: So some future dude went back to a SUCCESSFUL assassination and messed with the guns? / T-Rex: Precisely!! Unfortunately, my theory can only be proven true when this time traveller dude brags about it. So time traveller dudes, please feel free to come back in time and brag to me! / T-Rex: I ask ONLY for futurebux

poor toyota, first that huge recall and now a throwaway reference in dinosaur comics? WHAT'S NEXT?? T-Rex: From now on, when someone calls Dr. Frankenstein's monster "Frankenstein", I will not correct them! / T-Rex: Attention, world! YOU WIN! / T-Rex: After years correcting people, I am finally conceding this ground. While it is ENTIRELY FACTUAL that Mary Shelley never gave the monster a name as part of a grand symbol for the poor creature's lack of identity, I guess that was pretty much her bad. She should've called him "Stitchy Fleshface" or "Bubba Unhugga" because it turns out we're ENTIRELY UNWILLING to have reanimated flash walking around without sticking a name on it first. / Utahraptor: Well, it is kind of a dickish thing to correct people on! / T-Rex: It's not! / T-Rex: Any REASONABLE person would relish the correction and- / Utahraptor: Any REASONABLE person would recognize "Frankenstein" could easily be shorthand for "the Frankenstein creature", just as "Toyota" stands for the Toyota Motor Corporation. / T-Rex: Oh snap! Utahraptor, you've not only proven me wrong, but you've proven ALL PAST VERSIONS of me wrong too! YOU HAVE MADE SOME POWERFUL ENEMIES TODAY! / T-Rex: MOST OF THEM ARE TRAPPED IN THE PAST THOUGH, SO NO WORRIES!

"yes indeed, i hereby 'promise' to 'never get tired of "nested" punctuation'" T-Rex: "That" is an amazing word in the English language! It may be an amazing word in other languages too, but it is DEFINITELY an amazing word in English. / T-Rex: It's one of the few words that you can use as often as you want, and still be grammatical! / T-Rex: FOR EXAMPLE: I could say "That is an [sic] rad word", referring to, perhaps, the word 'syzygy'. But then I could ALSO say "That 'that' is an rad word!", referring to the 'that' in my previous sentence! Then I could go on to say that "That 'That "that"' is an rad phrase", and so on, to INFINITY. / Utahraptor: And you call that grammatical. / T-Rex: It is. Technically! / Utahraptor: Man, you know what I call it? / T-Rex: "You are a good friend, T-Rex, and I'm really sorry if I'm too critical sometimes"? / Utahraptor: ... / Narrator: LATER: / T-Rex: Yes indeed! / T-Rex: I won that argument through FEELINGS

notice how t-rex only stops calling the baychimo "it" once it escapes its crew? in his books, you want a gendered pronoun, you got to have AGENCY T-Rex: Which is the best boat? The Baychimo is the best boat! It weighs over a thousand tons and was used to trade pelts with the Inuit in the 1930s! / T-Rex: Already, a pretty sweet boat! / T-Rex: But then it got stuck in ice, so its crew abandoned it, and then two days later it got unstuck, so its crew unabandoned it. Then it got stuck in ice AGAIN, and this time most of the crew was rescued by helicopter. But some stayed, living in a hut they built for warmth! Then a huge blizzard struck a few weeks later, and when it cleared - / Dromiceiomimus: The boat was unstuck? / T-Rex: The boat was GONE. / Utahraptor: So it sunk! / T-Rex: No, man! / T-Rex: It broke free from both the ice AND the need for a crew! And though people kept finding and trying to salvage her over the next 38 YEARS, she kept escaping. She may still be out there! / Utahraptor: I can see why this boat appeals to you. / T-Rex: She totally does! / T-Rex: The only way this boat could be better is if they'd named her the "HMS Hey Screw You Guys". But whenever I close my eyes and imagine that all I see are the words "TOO RAD", floating in an otherwise featureless void! / T-Rex: So it's probably best they didn't name her that, huh

KLASSIK KOMIX while ryan is in scotland, living it up with the scotlandese! T-Rex: Ah, the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you! / T-Rex: Pretty crazy! / T-Rex: Following this rule, I could feed my vegetarian friends delicious steak sandwiches, because that's what I'd like! Mmm-mmm delicious! / Dromiceomimus: Well, no, T-Rex, because you probably wouldn't want to be fed something you didn't like. / T-Rex: Aha, so much for the golden rule! There's a lot of other awesome variants anyway. / Utahraptor: Wait -- are you really abandoning the ethic of reciprocity? / T-Rex: APPARENTLY, dude! / T-Rex: Now I'm all about "Do unto others AS they do unto you". Notice the lack of a "would have". Actually, NOW I'm all about "do unto others before they do unto you." No wait! "Do unto others at the same time as they are doing unto you". That one is about doing things together with friends, I think! / T-Rex: I notice you are leaving! Could my conversational stylings be partially to blame??

seriously tempted to end the comic after the first panel T-Rex: God, what would you do if you had a secret, and it was awesome, but you were worried that if someone found it out then it wouldn't be as special anymore? / God: FLOOD THE PLANET / T-Rex: Huh! / God: DUDE SO WHAT'S THE SECRET / T-Rex: I'm not telling! That's why it's a SECRET. / Dromiceiomimus: Oooh! What's a secret? / T-Rex: Nothing! I don't have any secrets! / T-Rex: ...What IS a secret? Whoah, you guys! I've had so few secrets that I've JUST NOW forgotten what a secret is! / Utahraptor: Wow, that's the least-plausible denial I've ever heard! / T-Rex: And yet, the most compelling? / Utahraptor: Hey man, if you don't want to share your secret with me, that's fine. I'm not gonna pry! / T-Rex: Okay, thanks, because this one is a TOP secret. This is one secret that I'll take with me to my grave. / God: T-REX I USED OMNIPOTENCE TO FIND OUT YOUR SECRET AND MAN EVERYONE KNOWS THERE'S A HIDDEN 1UP JUST BEFORE THE FIRST PIT IN THE FIRST LEVEL OF SUPER MARIO BROS / T-Rex: Dude!! / T-Rex: They do NOW

I've had so few secrets that I've JUST NOW forgotten what a secret is! / Utahraptor: Wow, that's the least-plausible denial I've ever heard! / T-Rex: And yet, the most compelling? / Utahraptor: Hey man, if you don't want to share your secret with me, that's fine. I'm not gonna pry! / T-Rex: Okay, thanks, because this one is a TOP secret. This is one secret that I'll take with me to my grave. / God: T-REX I USED OMNIPOTENCE TO FIND OUT YOUR SECRET AND MAN EVERYONE KNOWS THERE'S A HIDDEN 1UP JUST BEFORE THE FIRST PIT IN THE FIRST LEVEL OF SUPER MARIO BROS / T-Rex: Dude!! / T-Rex: They do NOW

i know i'm not the first one to complain about this, but it just keeps happening anyway. HOLD THE FRONT PAGE T-Rex: You know what's awesome? When there's a story on the news, and then they go to people "on the street" for their reactions to the story! / T-Rex: Wait, did I say "awesome"?! I meant "HOLY COW< SO TERRIBLE!" / T-Rex: They're stopping the flow of information to literally ask RANDOM STRANGERS what they think. The only way it'd be acceptable is if they prefaced these stupid segments with "and now, here's what some strange folks on their way to do something better had to say!" but THEY NEVER DO. / Utahraptor: It's not that bad, T-Rex! / T-Rex: It's SO BAD. / T-Rex: It's not even scientific, because it's not close to a representative sample. it's just noise! From now on, whenever the news does this, I'm going to take it as saying "We don't care about facts, just about burning through your finite lifespan! Hey, here's some guy who'd talk to us." / Utahraptor: Okay / LATER: / Newscaster: And now, here's what the people outside our studio have been saying. / T-Rex: Attention, news networks!! I'm beginning to think you don't take my proclamations at all seriously.

I saw "Up In The Air" with Emily Horne of A Softer World Dot Com, and before the movie I remarked how I don't understand women because most of them seem to like men and I really don't see what's so attractive about men in the first place, and then during T-Rex: My new video game is amazing, and avoids all the heteronormative baggage that is usually endemic to the medium! I call it: / T-Rex: "Wow! Time to Rescues the Prince(ss)!" / T-Rex: It's so great, Dromiceiomimus! When you finally rescue the prince(ss), he or she turns to you and says "THANK YOU FOR RESCUING ME. NOW, AM I A MAN. . . OR A WOMAN?" / Dromiceiomimus: And then your choice determines their gender? / T-Rex: Yep! You press the button for "MAN" and he says "OH NEAT" and if you press the button for "WOMAN" she says "COOL, I HAVE ALWAYS SUSPECTED THAT TO BE THE CASE". / Utahraptor: And what's the gameplay? / T-Rex: "Amazing"? / T-Rex: Look, you're trying to bog me down in specifics when I'm dreaming big of amazing end sequences that let you DECIDE who you just rescued. / Utahraptor: Okay, but you're not deciding who you rescued, you're just choosing their gender identity. / T-Rex: Not in the new version! In the new version you choose who you rescued and it says "OKAY, I AM GEORGE CLOONEY. BUT AM I STILL MAN??" / T-Rex: Utahraptor! What it lacks in grammar it makes up in best game ever!

originally in panel 4 utahraptor said "So you're always right by being as conservative as possible!" but I rewrote it so as to not be QUITE so clearly pandering to the ultra-conservative political base that makes up the bulk of this here readership T-Rex: If you like it when I'm wrong, then get ready to be SERIOUSLY SAD for the rest of your friggin' life!! / T-Rex: That's because I'VE come up with a way to never be wrong again! / T-Rex: Dromiceiomimus, ask me how many cells an average adult dinosaur has making up their body. / Dromiceiomimus: Okay, how many? / T-Rex: More than 100! Oh snap! Is that statement FACTUALLY ACCURATE?? / T-Rex: It's extraordinarily likely that it's factually accurate, Dromiceiomimus! / Utahraptor: So you're right by being as conservative in your estimations as possible! / T-Rex: Yep! / T-Rex: But they're not semantically empty! I do convey some small information, but words like "at most" or "fewer than" allow me all sorts of leeway! / Utahraptor: It seems like this is just going to be annoying. / T-Rex: No no, people will love it, I PROMISE. / T-Rex: And as you know, Utahraptor, fewer than four out of ten people respect my promises -- and possibly more! / Utahraptor: ... / T-Rex: ...You heard me.

KLASSIK KOMIX while ryan returns from europe, from living it up with the europese! T-Rex: Who would win in a fight, Superman or Batman? / T-Rex: The answer is "Batman"! / T-Rex: Anyone who doubts this need only remember that Batman is really smart, and that they're probably wrong. / Dromiceiomimus: Superman has strength! / T-Rex: Batman has BATMAN SKILLS. / Utahraptor: Man, Superman could kill Batman before Bats even knew the fight had started! / T-Rex: Oh, he'd know. / Utahraptor: Only because you're assuming he's omniscient. The dude has to sleep! Superman could laser him from orbit while he's having nappy times. / T-Rex: Batman doesn't have "nappy times"!! / Utahraptor: Sure he does! / Utahraptor: Every time he sleeps he puts a sign on his door that says, "Warning: Nappy Times! Enter only if you have a valid passport to dreamland!" / T-Rex: OH GOD / T-Rex: OUR FRIENDSHIP HAS NEVER BEEN SO ENDANGERED

ON THE OTHER HAND I WAS ALSO 99% SURE THAT BUTTERFLIES DIDN'T HAVE PROTRACTED DREAMS ABOUT BEING T-REXES SO HECK WHAT DO I KNOW God: T-REX DID YOU KNOW THAT THE WORD WITH THE MOST CONSECUTIVE DOUBLE LETTERS IN ENGLISH IS BOOKKEEPER / T-Rex: Incorrect, my friend! / T-Rex: The longest word with these properties is actually "bookkeeppaaddrringo"! / God: THAT'S NOT A WORD / T-Rex: Sure it is! I just used it while speaking English; it is thus an English word! / God: OKAY FINE BUT IT'S NOT A REAL WORD IT'S NOT A WORD THAT PEOPLE KNOW / T-Rex: Man, if I use it often enough it will be! It's just not well-known YET. / God: FINE WHICH WORD IN CURRENT USAGE HAS THE MOST - / T-Rex: Usage depends on the speaker. / Utahraptor: What? / T-Rex: Oh, God was claiming that the English word with the most consecutive double letters is "bookkeeper" but I was letting him know that it's actually - / Utahraptor: "Bookkeeppaaddrringo, right? / T-Rex: Oh my god!

back at u of t, the first draft of my thesis was all about "lexical compliments", and then i had a pretty embarrassing meeting with my supervisor. embarrassing for ME T-rex: If my friends are not successful, then I've surrounded myself with losers. / T-rex: But if my friends are more successful than me, then I'M the loser of the group! / Dromoceiomimus: T-rex, this is an awfully merchantile way of looking at things. "Success" can take many forms: financial, personal, and so on! You might be the best in your circle at, say, lacrosse, while -- / T-rex: -- while someone else might be the best at having really important feelings and then talking about them; I know. Let's say I measure success as an appropriately weighted average of all possible forms. The issue remains! / Utahraptor: I'm not convinced such an average exists! / T-rex: Suppose it does, though! / Utahraptor: Okay, then all you've really done is assign each of your friends a score and then used that to label some of them "losers", which is KINDA AWFUL. We don't form friendships with someone to feel better than them! We're friends with a person because, in some way, they complement us. / T-rex: Of course!! / Utahraptor: "Complement" had an "e" there, T-rex, not an "i". / T-rex: ...Ohhhh

this one seems kinda preachy, but i think it always sounds preachy when you're saying "hey, hate's kinda weird, huh?" anyway, i hate like three different game design choices in mario sunshine so who am i to talk T-Rex: If I owe someone a hundred bucks, I've got a problem. But only if they remember the debt! / T-Rex: Guys, debt is nothing more than memory! / T-Rex: And a debt forgotten is a debt forgiven. So if you want to break out of an endless cycle of revenge -- which is really just an endless series of perceived debts -- you could do worse than bopping your enemies on the head SO HARD that it causes PERMANENT AMNESIA. / T-Rex: ...Or - or you could bop yourself, if it's your turn to do the revenging. / Utahraptor: Debt's not unique in this, though! Lots of things rely on memory. / T-Rex: Such as? / Utahraptor: Well, relationships are all about a shared history, right? If that's forgotten, all that's left is a stranger. / T-Rex: That's true. You can't really love OR hate someone without at least knowing enough about them to inspire that emotion in the first place! Huh. / T-Rex: So to really hate someone, I have to put in at least SOME effort into making the memory of why I hate them in the first place. That seems kinda - dickish! / Utahraptor, off-panel: And yet, you still hate like 18 different celebrities. / T-Rex: Um, Utahraptor, they were in TERRIBLE MOVIES

We've all sorts of grand adventures in this land before noon T-Rex: Well, I'm really early and I'm not going to be able to get back to sleep. Maybe I'll go for an early-morning walk! / Narrator: LATER: / T-Rex: I am successfully going for an early-morning walk!! / T-Rex: Dromiceiomimus! What are you doing up? / Dromiceiomimus: Oh, hey T-Rex! I'm normally up at this time, actually. Couldn't leep? / T-Rex: Nope! Weird. I always assumed that you had the same sleep schedule as I did! / Dromiceiomimus: Looks like I don't! / Utahraptor: Hey, T-Rex, what are you doing up? / T-Rex, YOU'RE up too?! / T-Rex: Holy crap! There's this whole shadow world that lives in the early morning, isn't there? There's a hidden community of folks who get up early and DO THINGS, and I was never included until now! / Utahraptor: Yes, it's a wonderful place. Come with me, as I reveal to you our world of magic and whimsy. / Narrator: LATER: / T-Rex: Dear audio diary! Today I learnt when someone promises a tour of a land of whimsy, that REALLY just means they want you to buy them breakfast. Period underscore period, diary! / T-Rex: Colon dash openbracket space, period underscore period, diary.

if you're unfamiliar with the concept of personal branding, it's like the personality you already have, only it's fake, manipulative, and everyone who is not in the business of selling personal branding finds it crass. OH YES I GOT OPINIONS. OPINIONS I T-Rex: I'm no longer a mere person, cats and kittens. I'm a PERSONAL BRAND. Say goodbye to boring old T-Rex... / T-Rex: ...and say hello to the new, sexy and exciting - SURGE! / Dromiceiomimus: "Surge." / T-Rex: Yes, "Surge"! It says "dynamic". It says "power". And now YOU can say things like "Gentlemen: I've got the urge... to SURGE!!" / T-Rex: You know, before you call me up or whatever! / Utahraptor: I dunno, I think I liked "T-Rex" better! / T-Rex: Impossible! / T-Rex: "Surge" is a way stronger brand! You know what Surge is, Utahraptor? It's the tastiest burger you ever ate, mixed in with your favourite musician who just got better, mixed in with next year's car models. This summer, get the urge. Surge. / Utahraptor: Well, T-REX, I'm going home.

Tell me something. / Dromiceiomimus: Um, I - I really enjoy bicycling? / T-Rex: Oh, you'll grow out of that. Oh snap! / T-Rex: What's wrong with bikes, Dromiceiomimus? / Utahraptor: I think it makes you sound more dickish than wise! / T-Rex: You'll grow out of THAT, Utahraptor. / Utahraptor: Huh.

this comic will appear insane to anyone unfamiliar with dinosaur comics. ATTENTION, NEW READERS: if you go back and read 7 years of strips, you'll at least know who's talking in the last panel (ps it's shakespeare) (and he is written as a SULLEN TEEN) Narrator: CLASSICS OF WESTERN LITERATURE COMICS / Narrator: now performed by DINOSAURS / T-Rex: To be or not to be... / T-Rex: That is THE question! / T-Rex: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune... / Dromiceiomimus: ...or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and, by opposing, end them? / T-Rex and Dromiceiomimus: To die, to sleep - no more! / T-Rex: And by "a sleep" we say we end the heartache - / Utahraptor: - AND the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to! / Utahraptor: 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. / T-Rex: To die, to sleep, to sleep, perchance to dream... Ay, there's the rub, for in that sleep of death what dreams may come, when we have shuffled off this mortal coil? / Narrator: MEANWHILE, IN TUDOR ENGLAND: / Shakespeare, off screen: EXCUSE ME / Shakespeare: Monologues are usually performed by one person, T-REX

based on the time when a bat smashed through my window, startling me from my dark musing T-Rex: You know what's racist? Folks in stories always want to fight dinosaurs. APPARENTLY, we're all good at fighting! / T-Rex: SO RACIST. / T-Rex: While I freely concede that I PERSONALLY am indeed this generation's ultimate fighting machine, and that I can take you apart piece by piece and leave you in a big sloppy ol' pile for the garbage man to take away the next Wednesday, while SIMULTANEOUSLY cutting my nails and barely even noticing these events taking place, not every dinosaur is good in a fight! You shouldn't assume we're all whirlwinds of destruction. / Utahraptor: You know, Batman has this problem too! / T-Rex: Batman! / Utahraptor: Yeah, everyone wants to see if they can take on Batman, just as everyone wants to see if they can take a dinosaur. / T-Rex: Oh my god, that's right - I've got the same problem BATMAN has! Oh man, oh man, this is GREAT! I've got a new understanding of Batman! / Narrator: LATER, DISAPPOINTMENT: / T-Rex: Oh wait!! / T-Rex: I forgot I already HAVE ultimate understanding of Batman

Professional grade ultra sweet dudeness, right here. / Utahraptor: What's going on? / T-Rex: Utahraptor, GREAT NEWS. God and I are going to trade places! / Utahraptor: Wow.

"There's a direct line between printers saving a commonly-used phrase and the mental shortcuts / bags of prejudice of all the handy stereotypes of today!" T-Rex: In olden times, printing was accomplished using moveable type, which was really just metal pieces with letters and punctuation on them that you'd arrange to form your words and sentences! So, setting up a new page was slow and expensive. / T-Rex: You'd have to lay out each character by hand! / T-Rex: BORING! / T-Rex: But folks came up with some ways to speed things up. One was to make a cast of commonly-used words and phrases, so when you needed to say "sexy T-Rex", you could just grab the piece instead of an "s", an "e", an "x", and so on. / T-Rex: If you had a good set of common phrases, you could really speed things up! / Utahraptor: And printers had a name for these pieces of multi-character type, right? / T-Rex: Yep! / T-Rex: Some called them "cliches", while others called them "stereotypes" - and that's where our words come from! The stereotype of the sexy T-Rex is analogous to a piece of metal that reads "sexy T-Rex" in reverse, from printers who saved concepts they encountered often. / Utahraptor: Neat! / Utahraptor: But I still think you should apologize for your "poop-eating dog" comment though. / T-Rex: NEVER / T-Rex: I've SEEN them do it!!
