The people who whine about feathered dinosaurs remind me of people who won't let go of Dr. Eggman not being called Robotnik anymore.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Fuck this asshole and fuck dinosaurs with feathers

 

[DrROBschiz]

Cue people saying Dinosaurs don't have feathers.

Edit: beaten already

Some did and some didnt?

Im sure evolutionary pathways went in various directions

Smart people will figure it all out

 

[Faddy]

Is there any evidence quadrupedal dinosaurs have feathers?

There are almost complete stegosaurus and triceratops skeletons with no indication they were feathered. Have there been any feathered specimens found in the Americas at all. It could be that feathers are a trait of Asian dinosaurs.

 

[BFIB]

I cannot stop watching this. Its mesmerizing.

 

[Kinsei]

Fuck this asshole and fuck dinosaurs with feathers

Maccao goes down in a couple of minutes. How can it be alive long enough for you to hate it?

 

[Wag]

Stop building your dinosaur nests outside my window you little shit.

 

[Waylon Drums]

What's the background scene from?

The walk reminds me of that one guy from Dexter who hated Dexter but I have nothing to go on.

I cannot stop watching this. Its mesmerizing.

The way the neck just slightly disappears at the end. Perfect.

It took me ages to even be okay with Princess "Peach" or "Bowser" because they were obviously Princess Toadstool and King Koopa.

Tell me who's more badass? A dude that survives and thrives naked in a snowstorm? Or a dude fully covered in a warm coat in the same conditions?

Touché.

The naked guy in the snowstorm seeks protection under two trees. The last thing he did was wondering why the trees still had "foliage" im winter and why they were so warm.

The dream is dead.

We did it boys.

How does this look worse than 1993?

It doesn't

 

[zelas]

"Previous finds in amber have included isolated feathers that may have belonged to dinosaurs, but without an identifiable part of the body included, their source has remained open to debate.

So what dinosaur was it attached to?

 

[LeleSocho]

I never was big on dinosaurs but since the first news about the feathers appeared it suddenly made them look interesting and cool.

gogo feathers

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

It is the worst 2 minutes of your existence

 

[entremet]

For a place with many posters that espouse empiricism, you guys sure go nuts about revising dinosaur renditions with scientifically verified findings lol.

It's hilarious.

 

[Captain Europe]

Dinos with feathers are way cooler, it's like something out of a fantasy RPG/movie.

 

[RMI]

why do people hate dinosaur feathers exactly?

same reason people who hate that Jesus wasn't white. Bascailly they saw a bunch of drawings of things when they were kids and won't believe that reality could be any other way.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Is this just a big joke that people don't want dinosaurs to have feathers? Or are you guys actually dismissing science because you don't want it to be true? This reads like a troll thread.

At best, OP confirms one dinosaur had feathers

 

[Mineshaft_Gap]

It's amazing how supposedly smart people (e.g. atheists, scientists) believe anything they see with their eyes. The devil's greatest talent is his ability to deceive. Funny how blind they are to the glory of God but how easily they're led astray by one of Lucifer's obvious tricks.

I will pray for you all.

 

[Toa TAK]

WorldStar are you for real

I admit, your posts may be going over my head. Maybe I just don't get the joke.

EDIT: WHAT IS GOING ON? ^

 

[LookAtMeGo]

"Possibly"

 

[DavidDesu]

When I was a kid dinosaurs did not have feathers.

Most christians, especially the fundamental ones, think Jesus was white. Hahaha

It was called hiptersaurus, he liked feathers before it was cool

I'm going to make sure I'm buried in amber with feathers sticking out of my bones, just to fuck with future post-apocalyptic mole people archaeologists.

 

[Stinkles]

Probably just a dirty pigeon flew into an ihop trashcan in August.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Its a dwarf planet. Are you saying dwarf people arent people?

What the fuck

I wasn't talking about the smart people lol

 

[lyrick]

So did they squawk, chirp or cluck?

I don't think you remember that movie as well as you do... watch the part where they see the dinosaurs for the first time, it looks like a Resident Evil 1 PSX cutscene...

Only the animatronic versions stand up.

I honestly liked the explanation the movie gave as to why their dinosaurs didn't have feathers. Being that they were creating what people wanted to see not so much the reality of things.

They went with an inaccurate look, they look dope. They are cloning dinosaurs here, if they want to handwaive the feathers thing that's totally believable in that world.

 

[Lum1n3s]

Feathers? On a dinosaur? I'm sorry but you must be out of your damn mind if you think that's true. If this were true then come how come crocodiles don't have feathers or sharks.

 

[zewone]

What's the background scene from?

Dexter.

Not sure who Dr Eggman is, but Robotnik will kick all y'all's feather-lovin asses

 

[Mammoth Jones]

Looks so much better with feather.

This is the first thing that struck me.

 

[Eusis]

Uh they've thought dinosaurs had feathers for a while now...like at least a decade.

Two, probably longer. I remember reading about that in the 90s. We had just been waiting all this time to find a smoking gun.

Feathers? On a dinosaur? I'm sorry but you must be out of your damn mind if you think that's true. If this were true then come how come crocodiles don't have feathers or sharks.

Where do you think birds came from?

Remember this as a chicken grabs you from an outhouse.

So climate change denier, a dinosaurs had feathers denier and an anti vaccination believer walk into a bar

And they all start a circle jerk over libtards and the liberal media lying.

Is this a joke post?

 

[darklin0]

I blame Gen X people for this no feather malarky.


Feathers are fact, get over it.

 

[WorldStar]

This is the first thing that struck me.

This is why so many people are pushing the false narrative

Just because you believe dinosaurs look better with feathers doesn't mean they actually had feathers

 

[Szadek]

First Pluto and now this!
Science is taking me everything I love!

 

[gutter_trash]

awesome!

I don't care if they have feathers or not, I prefer knowing the truth instead of clinging to imagined images of what we thought hey looked like

so, if the truth is that some species were feathered, then I prefer knowing the factual scientific truth

 

[LookAtMeGo]

I dont mind the feathers. Im just not a fan of the piddly looking bird faces on some of those depictions. The reptile look with feathers is pretty badass but the giant bird look is not.

 

[Mackenzie 92]

so when I eat a bucket of KFC.. I'm really eating miniaturized fried dinosaur?

tasty

 

[asagami_]

Man, dinosaur meat shoud be tasty back then.

Some of the posts in this thread are fucking amazing.

You'd think dinosaur feathers was the heated debate of our time.
