I feel this, I would have done exactly the same as a kid (I probably have on multiple occasions, I was an obnoxious little smartass). Sadly I've forgotten most of my dinosaur knowledge along with my mythology knowledge, so now I'm one of those people young me would glare at. I still have a dinosaur encyclopedia somewhere. I'm going to dig it up when I'm back in Holland

When did you start taking dinosaurs so seriously?

Since the Great Pterodactyl/Bat Air Wars of the Late Cretaceous period.

Best dinosaur is the Liopleurodon, hands down.

But since you're the dinosaur expert here, can you tell me whether or not birds today could be considered dinosaurs? I've had a long running debate with my sibling about this - me taking the position that they are not.

Liopleurodon is not a dinosaur, goddammit.

And yes, birds are dinosaurs. Dinosaurs from back then are often referred to as non-avian dinosaurs to distinguish them from birds.

Honestly, I didn't realize the difference until I read this thread. I feel as if my entire life has been a lie.

I'll take the Spinosaurus then.

And if we're talking about non-actual-dinosaur dinosaurs I've gotta give it to Quetzalcoatl. Imagine something the size of a giraffe soaring over your head.

It's probably less impressive in real life. Harry Potter does not look impressed in that picture.

Does that mean you're an even uglier piece of **** IRL?
