Due to its tiny arms and non-pentadigit hands the T-Rex would commonly high five with its teeth. This lead to the T-Rex being unfortunately labeld a carnivore.

I'm confused, does OP want to know what people were doing before high fives or what was recently invented?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)
