Talk:3185: Sauropods

I was going to put in the first draft of an explanation, but that would have meant sticking my neck out... ;) 92.23.2.208 01:24, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

I also wanted to try explaining, by it's scary, I feel spineless 62.56.149.220 01:33, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

i came here to yell "spiders georg!" but i see you have beat me to it - Vaedez (talk) 01:40, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

The extremely short, punctuationless title text definitely evokes the spirit of early xkcd title texts like “disgusting” or “just thought you should know” KelOfTheStars! (talk) 02:51, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't think there's been a title text this short and punchy in a while R128 (talk) 10:30, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

i just discovered that paleology is not the study of fossils and such, by trying to check if "paleontological" was a mashup of paleological and ontological; nope, paleology is the study of antiquities, paleontology the study of fossils - Vaedez (talk) 05:34, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

I feel a reference to xenomorphs (aliens), where the queen was larger and had different anathomy -- Malgond (talk) 22:59, 27 December 2025 (UTC)

Messor ibericus

Would Messor ibericus be an exception to "Also, while queens are often larger specimens than their workers or drones, they always share the same general anatomy."? The Queen is a different species from most of the males (Messor structor), and the worker population is a hybrid of the two.

However, they are both basically ant-shaped, so any non-entomologist may very well say they share the same general anatomy. This article has a side by side picture for comparison. 168.149.142.233 (talk) 18:48, 26 December 2025 (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
