May 4th, 2015: Hey guys, I'm gonna move Dinosaur Comics to a M/W/F schedule for the next little while! I've been running the comic like that for the past month (I was in Barcelona for a con, and the reduced schedule let me keep the comic going while travelling) and it's been going... fine?? I THINK?? It does mean one less comic per week for you, but I will make the remaining comics 33% funnier to make up for that, HONEST.

I've had trouble keeping up with things lately and this will give me 3-4 more hours each week to better keep up with things! AS IF BY MAGIC??

I'm sorry to do this but if you are upset please email me and I will send you a picture of my dog as an apology. He is really cute; you won't regret it!

Exit of the Day: Robert Downey Jr. Walks Out on Channel 4 Interview

by TDW
Crooooow

This dude wants to be super controversial but just kinda comes off like a jackass. Richard Ayoade however continues to always be the best.

Iron Man has left the building.

Robert Downey Jr. is currently in the middle of a press tour to promote his new movie “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” but one Channel 4 interviewer wanted to talk about some of his past personal issues as well.

In the video above, Krishnan Guru-Murthy asks him about a quote he gave to the New York Times back in 2008.

I have a really interesting political point of view, and it’s not always something I say too loud at dinner tables here, but you can’t go from a $2,000-a-night suite at La Mirage to a penitentiary and really understand it and come out a liberal. You can’t. I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone else, but it was very, very, very educational for me and has informed my proclivities and politics every since.

“Are we promoting a movie?” asks Downey Jr.

Things just go downhill from there, as the actor constantly looks away from the camera while Guru-Murthy tries to pry out some more personal information from him.

When he brings up his father and past drug use, Downey Jr. pulls the mic off and says goodbye.

“You seem ok, it’s just gettin’ a little Diane Sawyer,” he says as he walks out the door.

This isn’t the first time Guru-Murthy sparked rage in a celeb. In 2013, he got Quentin Tarantino all worked up when he asked him if there was a link between violence in movies and real life.

And there was also this gem with Richard Ayoade from 2014.

Addison Russell Is Here, And The Cubs Are Going For It

by Tom Ley
Crooooow

The other day Suzanne said to me "This might be the year I learn the names of some Cubs players". This is probably a good one to know.

Everyone knew that Cubs super prospect Kris Bryant was going to be in the majors as soon as his service time could be gamed in the right direction, but not many people expected to see the Cubs’ other shiny prospect, middle infielder Addison Russell, with the big club before it even got warm in Chicago. But as was reported late last night, Russell is on his way to Wrigley, and the Cubs appear to be really going for it.

Great Job, Internet!: Watch Billy Eichner and David Letterman harass surprised New Yorkers

by Marah Eakin
Crooooow

I would watch Billy Eichner yell at New Yorkers all day long

With a fourth season of Billy On The Street coming soon to Tru TV, Billy Eichner’s back with a full court publicity press, appearing last night on Late Show With David Letterman. Eichner dished a bit about the First Lady and Big Bird, but what was more interesting is what came today: a new Billy On The Street clip that throws Eichner and Letterman onto the streets of New York to ask stunned strangers what they think the retiring Late Show host should do next. Interestingly but not surprisingly, it seems like more people know who Letterman is than, say, know who Amy Poehler is. That recognition makes the clip slightly disingenuous, only because people seem to really want Letterman to kick back, relax, and live his best life in the near future—or, at least, that’s all they’d say to his heavily-tanned face.

Jon Lester Completes Putout By Throwing Entire Baseball Glove To First

by Timothy Burke
Crooooow

quick-thinking and ridiculous


Jon Lester may have trouble throwing over to first , but maybe he’d have better luck if he just chucked his entire glove instead of just the ball. That’s what happened to the Cubs ace today in the second inning when he couldn’t make the transfer from glove-to-hand and thus decided to just throw the whole thing in one package over to first. Anthony Rizzo held on, and the out was counted.

Christian Texas Lady Thinks Religious Freedom Protects Her Right To Feed The Homeless, AS IF

by Kaili Joy Gray
Jesus feeds people

Texas takes its religious-flavored freedoms VERY SERIOUSLY, as we know. Sometimes, anyway. For important things like gay-hatin’ and slut-shamin’ and gun-totin’ and prisoner-executin’.

But Joan Cheever of San Antonio has some CRAZY idea that she should have the freedom to feed the homeless, as she’s been doing since 2005:

Katie Nolan Devastates Co-Worker's Horrible Blog On Garbage Time

Fox Sports personality and Garbage Time host Katie Nolan was among the first to call bullshit on thisHow To Land A Husband At The Masters” post that appeared on co-worker Clay Travis’s Fox-owned Outkick The Coverage blog when it popped up last week. That the outspoken and generally awesome Nolan would call it out on Twitter is only marginally surprising; that she went forward and conducted a whole segment on it during last night’s episode is noteworthy.

Newswire: Helen Mirren’s “great ambition” is to be a Fast And Furious villain

by Matt Wayt
Crooooow

!!!!!

Dame Helen Mirren has had a long and fruitful career. The 69-year-old actress has starred in classic films like The Long Good Friday and The Cook, The Thief, His Wife And Her Lover; has had a range of television roles, from playing Ayn Rand to entering The Twilight Zone; and has performed in countless theater productions in London and on Broadway. Mirren has won an Academy Award for Best Actress, four BAFTAs, three Golden Globes, four Emmy Awards, and two Cannes Film Festival Best Actress Awards. But the one thing she hasn’t done, much to her regret, is take on Dominic Toretto in a balls-out street race for honor and probably tons of money.

In a conversation with Yahoo! Movies about her upcoming film Woman In Gold, Mirren revealed that she is still chasing her ultimate dream:

WTF of the Day: Man Accuses Girlfriend of Having Sex With the Entire Wu-Tang Clan

by TDW
Crooooow

aaawwww yeah again and again

Wu-Tang Clan is a relationship “killah.”

On a recent episode of “Divorce Court” with Lynn Toler, a man named Nathan Sellers accuses his girlfriend Lia Palmquist of having sex with the entire hip hop group.

She admits that she went back stage at a show one night, got on their tour bus and later hung out with the group at their hotel (until 7am!), but she didn’t sleep with any of them.

“We were not doing anything but talking,” she says, defending herself. “We talked a lot about politics.”

But Nathan doesn’t believe that for a second.

“She gave Wu some Tang,” he says.

You can watch the full episode below and judge for yourself.

Prediction of the Day: NASA Scientist Says We Will Find Aliens By 2025

by TDW

Hide your cats and prepare to be probed. Aliens are coming.

In a panel discussion Tuesday about the search for water and life in space, NASA’a scientist Ellen Stofan said that she thinks we are going to discover extraterrestrials by 2025.

“With all of our lifetimes we’re going to understand that there is life on other bodies in the solar system. We’re going to understand the implications of that for evolution of like here on earth,” she said. “Thats all gonna happen in the next 10-25 years. How exciting is that?”

That IS pretty exciting news – as long they aren’t the Ridley Scott kind of aliens.

Although, in reality this discovery will be less like “Prometheus” and much more like “Close Encounters of the Microscopic Kind.”

“We’re not talking about little green men,” Stofan said. “We are talking about little microbes.”

The lifeforms will be difficult to find, but they think they have the technology and resources to do it.

Recent studies have suggested that there is a large body of saltwater on Jupiter’s moons, Ganymede and Europa. And NASA’s Dawn mission is exploring the dwarf planet Ceres for signs of water or ice as well.

The Curiosity Mars Rover also discovered a streambed on the planet, and scientists think it “once had enough liquid water to form an ocean occupying almost half of Mars’ northern hemisphere.”

Don’t worry Marvin, one day we will find you… one day.

Here’s an infographic from NASA which shows all the spots in space where we are most likely going to find aliens if they exist.

Parody of the Day: Muppets Compete for the Crown in Sesame Street’s ‘Game of Chairs’

by TDW
Crooooow

oh man I'll bet all those 6 year old Game of Thrones fans just loved this!

In the “Game of Chairs” you either win, or you die.

Well no, you don’t actually die because you’re a muppet and this is Sesame Street. But if George R.R. Martin were involved, things might be a little different.

Just in time for the start of the new season of “Game of Thrones,” Sesame Street has released a parody of the show in which Grover Bluejoy assists Robb, Cersie, Joffrey and Daeneyrus in a game of musical chairs to see who will be the next ruler of Jesteros.

Things don’t go as planned, and just like the real series, it ends with a twist.

No one is beheaded, betrayed or in an incestual relationship with their sibling, but there are dragons!

Sesame Street also released a “House of Cards” parody back in February, just before the premiere of the Netflix show’s 3rd season.

Comments of the Day: Girl Named Beyoncé Gets Support from Celebrity Name Twins on ‘Humans of NY’

Meet Beyoncé.

She may not be THE Beyoncé, but she’s a Beyoncé nonetheless, and her name has been causing some problems at school.

She says she hates it when it draws unwanted attention to her, because she is not typically very outgoing.

“When the teacher started calling attendance, I got really nervous, because every time people learn my name is Beyoncé, somebody starts singing ‘Single Ladies.'” she says in a recent Facebook post from Humans of New York.

Her story struck a chord with all the other celebrity name twins of the world, who are now sharing their own struggles in the comments section of the post.

This is what the Internet was made for. Aside from cats, obviously.

Radio Prank of the Day: New Zealand Station Tricks Hosts Into Doing Fake Broadcast

by TDW
Crooooow

Suze, this is the prank I was telling you about

Two afternoon hosts at ZM Radio in New Zealand got a call on Wednesday asking if they could cover the morning shift for their “sick” coworkers.

They obliged, trudged in extra early, and produced an entire hour’s worth of a show before learning the sad truth: no one had been listening.

Expect for the moments when they were being punked, of course.

In this clever April Fool’s Day prank, watch as the very healthy morning hosts air the real broadcast from a separate studio, all while channeling some crazy callers into the fake broadcast.

Not exactly the best way to start your day.

#beaglegoals

Purin the Super Beagle is no ordinary dog.

This 9-year-old, multi-talented Japanese pup has become a worldwide sensation for her special skills.

In fact, she is so popular, she even has her own agent, according to The Daily Mail which wrote a piece on her back in 2014.

Her owner Makoto Kumagai says Purin (which means “pudding” in English) is constantly getting requests to be featured in commercials and on TV shows to demonstrate her various talents.

Most recently, she has been showing off her goaltending skills as you can see in the video above, and here are a few more examples of why she is considered a “super beagle.”

She can skateboard like a pro:

She can walk around on her front paws:

She can jump rope:

She can play the piano:

She is also an excellent ninja:

And here are some more photos of Purin from your new favorite Instagram account.

Response of the Day: Google Replies to Press Inquiry with Reaction GIF

by TDW

032615googlegif

We’re one step closer to completely eliminating spoken language and communicating to each other only via GIFs.

The Daily Dot wrote an article this week reporting that YouTube is set to relaunch its livestreaming video service with a special focus on gaming and eSports.

They also reached out to Google for comment, but instead of actual words, the press person replied with just an animated reaction GIF (shown above.)

“The GIF really was our official response,” Google later confirmed to the reporter Richard Lewis.

Wired then reported about the GIF response, and they also got a confirmation of the GIF reaction from a YouTube rep, via another GIF reaction.


@MarcusWohlsen @WIRED <3 @StephenAtHome, but @YouTube prefers confirming we sent w/animal gifs http://t.co/50YrI6rcl7 http://t.co/VM2O3mRdLI

First Baseman Tags Out Two For Solo Double Play ... At Third Base

by Kevin Draper
Crooooow

Baseball is weird

With runners at first and third and no outs in today's spring training game against the Braves, Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong hit a little blooper thing down the first base line. Braves first baseman Joey Terdoslavich spotted Yadier Molina hung up between third and home, so he sprinted across the diamond to initiate a rundown. Molina attempted to avoid the tag long enough to let Dean Anna—steaming around second—to advance to third. Instead, Terdoslavich tagged Molina out, and then dove towards the bag and nailed Anna too, for the solo double play at third base by the first baseman.

Inept car thief Jose Espinoza was running from the cops in Madera, California last weekend, when he came up with what he believed was a genius escape plan.

He spray painted himself black as a disguise. Needless to say, it didn’t work, especially considering he was standing next to a white wall, as Corp. Josiah Arnold told CNN.

The Madera Police Department later posted his mugshot to Facebook, with this amazing caption: “The camouflage was ineffective.”
