I know people are mostly kidding when they say "That person wasn't bullied enough as a kid" but I still wish we'd retire the phrase because idk I don't think the key to becoming a cool and good person is being called slurs at an impressionable age

"tyrannosaurus rex" is kinda one of the craziest called shots of all time if you think about it some dude in 1905 was like 'this was definitely the most badass dinosaur so I will name it as such' and 120 years of research and new discoveries keeps proving him right.
