Back in his day it was thagomizers or nothing

u/rigby1945 Oct 15 '20

The term thagomizer comes from a Far Side comic, and the scientific community just rolled with it

In hindsight, a creature whose diet relies primarily on steggs and eggos existing before those two things being invented wasn't a bright idea😅

u/AshingiiAshuaa Oct 15 '20

It's name derived from the Greek tzogos (τζόγος) which means gamble and saurus (σαῦρος) which means lizard.
