Turtles aren't rocks. ? 2659: Unreliable Connection (talk) 03:04, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Maybe referring to shell of turtles? 172.71.22.212 03:56, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

I thought this was a joke where Cueball thinks rocks were cooler in Þe Olde Dinosaur Times, because ÞODT had rocks shaped like dinosaur bones. Maybe I'm completely off. 172.69.65.47 04:15, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

I appreciate your use of the letter thorn. 172.69.65.209 09:21, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

You mean þorn 172.70.42.86 00:31, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

NB, this was someone else's edit. However funny/intelligent it was, it was bad form. 172.70.162.229 12:10, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

My interpretation is that paleontologists picked up all of the interesting rocks, and now only boring rocks are left—and turtles. 162.158.94.159 09:41, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Rocks were cool. 108.162.216.144 13:15, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

heavy rocks are cooler 172.70.242.178 05:47, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

I interpreted this as a geologist who has always thought rocks were “cool” has, while looking at a stegosaurus skeleton, considered switching to paleontology instead, because that’s way cooler. 162.158.91.36 20:38, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

It seems unlikely to me that Cueball is referring specifically to the plates on the stegosaur's back. BunsenH (talk) 16:05, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

I added my own interpretation where Cueball thinks that dinosaurs actually were made of rocks, therefore making them cooler than our rocks. 172.70.211.42 18:37, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Terrible, wrong explanation. He's referring to how the rocks used to be dinosaurs, obviously. Rocks "used to be way cooler" because they used to be dinosaurs. Duh.
