(While visiting my cousin’s house, this conversation comes up.)
Me: “Did you hear they recently found a dinosaur tail embedded in amber?”
Cousin: “Dinosaurs didn’t exist.”
(I just stare at her for a few seconds.)
Me: “Then, what do you think all those fossils are?”
Cousin: “Mammals.”
Me: “The only mammals at the time were small rat-like creatures.”
Cousin: “Maybe it was rats.”
Me: “What kind of rats have feathers?”
Cousin: “Maybe it was birds.”
Me: “While dinosaurs are very similar to birds they are very lizard like.”
Cousin: “Maybe it was giant lizards.”
(I left shortly after that.)
