Dinosaur extinction

[anvi]

The reason for the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago has
been contentiously debated over the course of many decades.  The
debate has spaked not only great scientific but also religious controversty.
One of the theories that has caught on in recent years is that a giant
slice of the asteroid Baptisima hit the earth, and under the halo of debris
it kicked up into the atmosphere, the dinosaurs died in a sustained winter.

But a recent description of the sex-life of the T-Rex has provided me with
a much more compelling explanation.

The T-Rex weighed approximately 7 tons, and its arms were far too short
and weak to enable it to hold itself in place during lovemaking.  So, the
standard procedure seems to have been for the male to mount its partner
and sink its 60, nine-inch long, conical teeth, which exerted some 1.5 tons
of force, into his partner's back to hold her in place so that coitus could be
brought to completion.

I now think, therefore, that an asteroid impact theory of dinosaur extinction
is entirely superfluous.  It's far more likely that, at a certain point, both male
and female dinosaurs looked each other over, realized what would be
necessary, and, saying "to hell with this!", simply chose extinction over
continued coupling.  

A similar fate may await the human species, as increasing numbers of
human beings divorce and, suddenly faced with the prospect of having
to date again, make the same inescapable choice the T-Rex once did.

You should probably ask for a refund on your paleontology degree.  Although the stamp on the request letter probably costs more, so you needn't bother.

A.) I heard this explanation of the T-Rex from someone else, and B.) it's just a joke.
So, how about you ask for a refund from whatever place you got your sense of
humor?

In fact, you know what?  I'm signing off from this forum.  It's a place where one
can neither have a serious conversation nor try to make people laugh.  So, the
hell with it.

Y'all have fun.  Bye.

What, Joe, you didn't hear about Tyrannosaurus Sex on the Discovery Channel?  No... this is not a joke, this program really just aired.

I didn't watch it, BTW, because thinking about CGI dinosaurs rutting really takes a piece of my childhood from me.

RaptorJesus took them away in the velocirapture.

Ah, what if the male laid down and the female was on top?
