I already hated DND for personal reasons, but this is absolutely ridiculous and certainly doesn't help. The most idiotic parts are hard to read due to the lighting, so try to read them if you can.

Dungeons and Dragons, don't knock it my character was a dwarf with a T.rex mount. I miss you Skubulbunt...

Everyone's talking about Nasutoceratops because of the PSAT and I'm just sitting here laughing.

So someone just said to me that "fossils are still speculation" in response to me using Velociraptor's size in comparison to T. rex to show we can know things as a fact.

Then again it was on the steam forums for ARK so I guess I did shoot myself in the foot there.

I absolutely hate it when people tell me that everything concerning prehistoric animals is speculation. Granted most of it is, but it's not like there aren't known facts about them that are easily deduced from fossils and will never be disproved (like that most coelurosaurs had feathers, T. rex was a carnivore, pterosaurs could fly, sauropods were enormous herbivores, etc.).

And the number of bones, I've seen even that treated like a wild guess rather than a fact on a couple of occasions.

The number of people who get paleontologists and archaeologists confused. If you know the difference between a surgeon and a dentist or a policeman and a fireman, you should know the difference between an archaeologist and a paleontologist.
