Someone has plans tonight
For science!
The same thing they do every night.
Try to give dinosaurs the clap!
Can you somehow make the dinosaur give you gonorrhea?
It's probably happened in one of those Chuck Tingle books.
You never know. But alas the dinosaur is not alive today so it would not be able to give you gonorrhea
Diplodocuses (diplodocii?) do not cause gonorrhea? How are you so sure? Have you slept with one?
I've seen enough of the internet to know an anthropomorphic dinosaur is fully capable of spreading a venereal disease.
Only if you believe hard enough though
If you're clappy and you know it, see a doctor
What if ur not happy?
urrrrrr
This Jurassic Park movie is getting weird pretty quickly.
Still, not a bad movie considering current trends.
Ork clap
Diplodocuses (diplodocii?)
Diplodocussy
Have you slept with one?
Have you not?
There’s a handy mnemonic for this:
- DiploCOCcus CAUSEs gonerrhea
- DiploDOcus DOesn’t
The fact that you have a mnemonic device for this makes me feel like you deserve to be on whatever lists you're on.
Exactly how many museums have you been banned from?
Edit: Spelling
you deserve to be on whatever lists you're on.
Holy shit lol.
I'm putting that one in my back pocket.
I'm honored.
I would've went with:
DiploCOCcus has a gonerhhea infested COC
DiploDOcus open the DOor, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur.
how do we know the diplodocus did not cause gonorrhea? what if it was like a giant koala?
You did not want to encounter a jurassic drop bear.
Yea, but those are like the only differences.
Now we arent 100% sure it doesn't cause gonorrhea, someone's gotta fuck one first.
does not cause gonorrhea
[citation needed]
Do not the Diplodocus
Obligatory milenial joke:
Your mom, very big, causes gonnorhea
This would explain why nobody has been coming to my discount Jurassic Park.
DIPLO COCKS
- very large [citation needed]
- causes gonorrhea [citation needed]
I came here to comment this
Maybe 20 years ago I went to see RJ D2 and Dipla opened up. I went over to purchase one of his DVD videos and the motherfucker, hit on my perfect ten redhead girlfriend in front of me. Granted, she was fucking beautiful. But he is a cunt. Definitely liked his first album. Anything after that is just drivel.
So yes, he probably has gonorrhea. Again, we'll give it to you or your loved ones.
there is prion that causes a deadly brain disease, and then theres the PRION bird which has the same name.
I could get the same result with ssh-keygen!
Somehow i read this as diarrhea and immediatly thought: "No I'd shit myself with either one."
Causes diarrhea
But what about just Diplo, does he cause gonorrhea? Asking for a friend.
Is diplobocus the equivalent of atomic lead? (Tiny and very bad for you) How about diploeocus? Some planet somewhere?
diplofocus is the paleoptometrist
Afaiu it was them that passed it to humans just prior to the deluge.
Thankfully Noah invented wine to balance things out.
Causes gonorrhea? IS gonorrhea, no?
It does cause gonnatreea
Diplococcus doesn't cause the clap, some organisms with diplococcus morphology cause the clap.
Smh op you should know better with that username than to spread this misinformation against a vibrant community of such individuals like pneumonia and meningitis
Here's my theory: All diplodocuses, much like all brontosauruses, are thin at one end, much MUCH thicker in the middle, and then thin again at the far end. That is the theory that I have and which is mine, and what it is too.
