Hey, CityRaptor, isn't that Fluttershy? I was told by two friends that I'm uncannily like Fluttershy. Then it turns out I am, according to a Pony Personality test.  :))


CityRaptor

I have no idea who that is. I jut found that pic via google image search while searching for Cockatrice pics. All I know is that it scares the Cockatrice...
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Terror Chicken?
But featherless chicken already exist.

But that one has functioning hands! And also I'm sure the lack of feathers has something to do with it's desert lifestyle despite the fact that many birds survive in deserts just fine with them.

CityRaptor

Fully Functionional? Thought they were just exposed due to it being naked.

Also, while browsing DeviantArt, I saw this map:
http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/217/8/a/hi_resolution_equestria_map_by_pixelkitties-d59w4iv.png
Official Map of Equestria. So yeah, the Ponies are American. Guess that means that their equivalent of Horner ( probably an Unicorn)  actually made his Chickenosaurus and it fought that Fluttershy Pony.
Meanwhile I'm fine with being a Griffon, since those seem to be Europeans according to that map.

Even featherless a chicken's hands don't look quite like that. They aren't folded back either which gives me the impression that they're supposed to be re-evolved functioning hands.

Yeah, and with two digits. Birds have three (two of which are fused together...but I'm sure I don't have to remind anyone here of that). Really just looks like it has miniature tyrannosaur arms!

While we're on the topic of bird digits check out this duck claw! This duck was my dinner a couple weeks ago and I had to get a nice close up shot of this. A reminder of what I was actually eating.

And the skin in the background looks very 'scaly' doesn't it?

I feel my old, shunned tyrannical ways (see custom title on my author panel) are returning with alarming force.  :o Help!

Actually that is not the skin, though it does look like it could be right? The duck was sitting on a platter designed to look like a fish so while the background actually is scaly it is not because of the duck.

Did you enjoy your meal? 8)

Oh yes, it was the second time I've ever eaten duck. It was very good but greasy and fatty too.

I can't believe how many people are sticking transformer stickers on their cars. They look stupid. I asked someone earlier today with such a sticker what their Ford car transforms into and they just looked at me with a dumb look on their face. Is this fad happening everywhere or just here in Australia?

I haven't seen it where I live...maybe it's because I live in the country? Are you in the city?

It is something that has been going on since the eighties in the US. I think its not alot different than seeing vehicles driving around with Jurassic park logos on their doors and such....each their own right?

Oh I'd love to drive around in an explorer done up like the ones in JP! Even better - the color scheme used on the Kenner Series 2 Jungle Explorer (which was never released).

There are a few vehicles locally painted up and decal loaded to look like the Jurassic Park tour cars. They are outnumbered by the transformer cars, but they are out there.

I've seen a few JP cars online, but never in person. That'd be a site to see.
