No energy products come from dinosaurs. Coal is from trees and oil is from plankton. Natural gas is a byproduct of oil.

No, can't be true. In Mrs. Doubtfire, it's explicitly said that crude oil is from the remainders of dinosaurs.

Wait, has school been lying ALL This time? What actually happens to bones?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, they just haven't been clarifying.

It was an early misunderstanding of tar pit and peat bog excavations as I understand it.

Schools should teach about the bone wars and how they set back set back research by hundreds of years and created dinosaur myths that persist to this day.

That sounds so bad ass. The bone wars, I would pay extra attention to that.

Mostly they disintegrate. Some become fossils depending on how they died and the conditions surrounding their body.

Oil is from plankton? Well, I learnt something today.

[edit] Is it because of the term fossil fuels and people go "wait, I've seen some fossils, OF DINOSAURS"

I don't care if I am eaten after I die. Go nuts.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What kind of nut would you suggest baking with you? I'm thinking pecans.

I'm preferential to walnut

...who cooks nuggets in a pan???

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why not? You microwaving? Not a crispy enjoyer?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ever hear of frying, whether deep- or air-?

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Of course. Did I say pan was the only way to get crispy?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nah, but you kind of implied it lol

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I did not. You assumed it.

I implied that microwaving makes them not crispy.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

implied that microwaving makes them not crispy

In spite of nobody else mentioning microwaving.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It is the primary way listed on the bag.

Edit and the way lazy or unskilled people make them. (And make them soggy)
