Growing up, everyone had a defining moment where they could pick a random, detailed science thing that they were going to become obsessed with. Like a starter Pokemon or the Hogwarts houses, your choice determined your personality for the rest of your childhood, dictating every birthday present and pair of light up sneakers that entered your bedroom. Obviously, the coolest, smartest, most interesting kiddos made the wise choice and fell in love with dinosaurs. 

Since then, dino lovers have been captivated by the allosaurus, pterodactyl, and parasaurolophus, dragging their parents, friends, lovers, and spouses to the town's natural history museum every time they have a prehistoric exhibit. Pseudo-paleontologists will know the scientific name, classification, and fun facts of every dinosaur ever recorded and they're not afraid to let everyone know. In fact, a real dinosaur fiend might even ask the museums to double check their facts because that's not what their dino-cyclopedia said the facts were. Regardless of where you fall on the dinosaur-loving spectrum, everyone can appreciate the semi-avian monstrous living critters that roamed the Earth before our time. And the imaginative part of everyone's hearts love the idea of a world without humans to ruin it. 

So scroll for a primeval batch of dinosaur memes that we excavated from the fossilized ruins of the Internet. For more memes from long ago, check out these elfish memes from the First Age of men in Lord of the Rings.
