    Amateur. Took literal eons for someone to say this about Stegasour. I’ve gotten people to say this about me in my short lifetime.

    Plus 10 points for that display to not have steggy in a sprawled posture. Still inaccurate to my modern eyes, but not horrible

    Stegosaurus was a weird looking critter but that’s only because of the secret message hidden in every photo of him.
