Cleopatra was born closer to the invention of cellphones than the building of the pyramids

We live closer in time to the T-Rex than the T-Rex to the stegosaurus. Which makes the land before time a fictional story not based on true events.

Also the T in T-shirt stands for tyrannosaurus because it has short arms, just like the T-Rex.

Where did you get that the T stands for Tyrannosaurus? ๐Ÿ˜‚

It looks like a T, that's why it's called T shirt, imo, no source either.
