Oh, that's the famous Sherlock Holmes fanfic author, right? And occasionally Batman fanfic!
I deduce you are a visitor to qwantz.com!
I myself only ever visit chewbac.ca!
Likewise, Tyrannosaurus Shirt should be shortened (and italicized) to:
T. shirt
not
Tshirt
T-shirt

Fake.
First, Corythysaurus would have blasted his ass with a sonic boom before he could even have really started. Seriously. BLASTED. HIS. ASS
Second, they loved about 10 million years apart. That may not seem like much to us fellow humans, but in dinosaur years, its scientifically notable.
Finally, while T. rex's English was quite good, it's vocabulary was limited. source
Second, they loved about 10 million years apart.
But people say love can overcome anything; what's a mere 10m years?
When they make the movie The Time Traveler's Dino, will it be animated or CGI?
Presumably animated first, with an unwanted live action remake if the animated version is successful.

This H. sapiens didn't even italicize properly.
Fixed, my most sincere apology.
I'm suspicious of your apparent knowledge.

i also talk with my hands a lot and i need to pay attention to what i do with my hands next time that comes up. it can't be as boring as finger quotes. nooooo
Suggestion: put your hands up flat, palms facing each other, and sort of tilt them with your head.
I can't we have that associated with a specific high school teacher
Strong dinosaur comics vibes here.
It's missing the leading "Actually..."

This sounds like an autistic rant, literally. Just going off about some societal norm like it's a sin against god, demanding names be displayed in italics, lmfao. Was pretty informational though.
Never besmirch the band T-Rex.
Why is this spider-man? Why is my brain telling me this is spider-man?
If it's Latin, shouldn't we use Latin spelling pronunciation for the T? What is it?
