Caption Contest →
Given the winners and runners-up for the previous contest, something tells me I should keep an eye on this space if only for mocking purposes.
Stale humor and mediocrity: the avant garde in the caption contest industry. I won’t be surprised if I find such ideas as, “And I thought my wife was a terrible driver!” or, “The invisible car is amazing, Q, but why did you cram a...

This kid might almost like dinosaurs as much as I do. Almost.

Oh yeah, sounds like a real fun game. And who knows? Maybe it will be. Me, I’d rather play as the dinosaur robot.
Here's what you missed last week
…because I wasn’t around to bring you this hard-to-find dinosaur news.
Prints found in New Zealand.
This picture really ought to be on a DAHLIA list, but it’s too cool.

DAHLIA OFFENDERS LIST
John Vaught Labeaume continues the sad trend of using “dinosaur” in a political context. How soon before this term is worn out like “flip-flopper,” “maverick,” and “silver bullet”? Not soon enough for our tastes

Q: How do we know the extinction of the dinosaurs wasn’t due to a worldwide pandemic, either bacterial or viral?
A: Because that’s too retarded.
1/3 Gone!
More information about the new dino growth analyses that may wipe out about 1/3 of known species as being juveniles of other existing species. This one has an awesome diagram to illustrate how three supposed genera are actually three stages in the development of Pachycephalosaurus wyomingensis.
