The Flintstones lied to me

[OverweightPidgeon]

I have just found out that there was 65 million years between dinosaurs and man appearing on the scene. 65 MILLION years ! It makes my head hurt

Sorry OP but this made me laugh! 😂😂😂

Those foot-powered cars didnt exist either. Sorry :o

The Flinstones is post-apocalyptic. Hence them cobbling together cars and record players and stuff.

Interesting fact: Fred and Wilma were the first couple to share a bed on television.

Haha
I know it’s such a standard representation

@StealthPolarBear 🤣🤣🤣

I honestly thought cavemen hunted dinosaurs

Woolly mammoths existed at the time of the great pyramids ...

65 MILLION years ! It makes my head hurt well there wasn’t so no issue there.

@Tempusfudgeit

Woolly mammoths existed at the time of the great pyramids ...

And cleopatra lived during a period closer to the invention of the iPhone than the pyramids being built.

Not being funny but school much?

The time separating Stegosaurus and T. rex is longer than the time separating T.Rex and humans! Now that blew my mind. Assumed they hung out together 🤣

What's more of a head fuck for me is that the T-Rex lived closer in time to humans than it did the stegosaurus

Snap @DickeryDock

@MrsTerryPratchett I really can’t remember covering this at school.

This is making me wonder about The Jetsons now, and if I have to wonder about The Jetsons maybe I also have to question other animated documentaries. Like Wiley Coyote - he really isn't that wiley is he? Why did they have to call the shop Acme instead of Amazon, why does Roadrunner always say meep meep?
You're rocking my world now OP with your "jokes" about 65 million years!🥺

Wooly Mammoths may have been around in Siberia within the last few hundred years.

Also, The Palace of Westminster is around fifty years newer than the Capitol in Washington DC, and Tower Bridge is almost twenty years newer than the Brooklyn Bridge.

....And the middle tower of the Palace of Westminster, the one that looks like a steeple, that is the chimney for the central heating system.

I do remember a reading scheme at school with a series of books featuring 2 cave children called Lok and Shan .

And Big Ben is the name of the bell. Not the tower or the clock.

I did know about the dinosaurs (science teacher) but I didn’t know about cleopatra or Fred and Wilma sharing a bed so I already love this thread!
Keep them coming!

Say what now?

Road runners actually make that meep meep noise! I saw it on a David Attenborough programme. Acme means the best, so the Coyote is upscaling from Amazon! @IAmTheLovechildOfYvesAndIsabel

The first dinosaur fossil was found in the 1800's - which is probably why they weren't a feature in the bible

Heroin was used for children’s coughs up until 1912!

Why did they have to call the shop Acme instead of Amazon

The roadrunner cartoons are way earlier than the founding of amazon (which was just a book store)
