You got it all wrong, it wasn't "rule" as in "management" it was "rule" as in "radical, rad, excellent, *guitar riff*".

Just seeing that made the theme song pop into me head full force. Crazy how things can stick with you.

If there’s a secretary bird today, who knows what was their highest position then?

There even was a Tyrannosaurus Rex, that means they had at least one monarchy!

It's too bad the Stenograsaurus never reached it's evolutionary peak, just think of the records we could have had from that time!

Well they dropped the 'a' from the Apt-erodactyl because their daily performance felt phoned in.

I didn't know they had a ruler. I thought they were an autonomous collective.

Surely the lack of opposable thumbs made it difficult to hold a ruler long enough to measure the Earth precisely.

9

You're fooling yourself. They were living in a dictatorship, a self-perpetuating autocracy, in which the working class dinosaurs...

2

They probably didn't have rulers. Or compasses. It was such an early era that geometry wasn't invented yet.

Are we ruling the Earth or making the biggest mess ever in history? Who's to say who has the better admin skills?

Dinosaurs had a stagnant civilization that needed external aid to destroy itself. We need no stinking asteroid for that!

we barely know a thing about them. maybe they were burning trash on the sidewalk

19

If they had elevators that could handle Brachiosaurus then let the trash burn and pee flow in the streets.

You barely know a thing about them* They survived hundreds of millions of years as the dominant species and to this day are still alive and thriving as avians who aren't ancestors of dinosaurs but are straight up mini dinosaurs.

I'm not an expert but I know enough to know there's a lot more out there.

I think the word you're looking for is descendants. Ancestors are the ones that come before.

It's interesting how dinosaurs went from largest animals on land to small creatures we factory farm

2

It's is a crazy switchup, they once terrorised the mammals and now the mammals have factory farmed them in the most brutal fashion possible. I really doubt it but I wonder if somehow we mess as humans mess up so bad or something happens that allows a new species to dominate again even if not intellectual but just physically.

4

Their rule was so administratively superior that they did not need to have any physical records of anything they did, thus baffling archaeologists, accountants and managers worldwide

18

Well if you were alive back then dinosaurs would be the ones to be the ones to decide if you lived or died

Ohh, how I wish I coulda been the 1 to make your meem's score 1000, Hoomin..
