It's a T. rex world

The Babylon Bee has been a bit off its game recently, but I still check it from time to time, and yesterday I read the not particularly funny "13Ways To Tell If Your Priest Is An FBI Agent." One of the items on the list was "The name 'Father Burt Macklin' seems suspicious." That name didn't mean anything to me, so I looked it up. Apparently it's the name used by some sitcom character when he poses as an FBI agent.

His middle name is Tyrannosaurus.


Burt Tyannosaurus Macklin is played by Chris Pratt, shown here being chased by an Indominus rex in Jurassic World.


And here he is posing with a mini T. rex, not much taller than himself.


The sitcom is called Parks and Recreation. Googling that phrase led me to a familiar graphic-design motif.


I suppose after Charles is crowned, they'll start making coins with his face that say CHARLES III·D·G·REX. Googling to see if any such coins were already in production, I was astonished to find this:


Now I know they've had a female head of state for a really long time, and I know they don't teach Latin in schools anymore -- but come on, the Royal Mint made a mistake like this? "Charles III, Queen by the grace of God"?

Some of my readers will have seen that grotesque painting by Epstein girl Rina Oh that shows Charles with female genitalia, and her accompanying statement saying that it's all true. On the off chance that she's not lying or delusional, given the sexual-revolution meaning of the letter, wouldn't that make him a "T" rex?

Note added: Apparently another alter ego of the Chris Pratt character is "Johnny Karate."


Obviously a close cousin to Rex Kwon Do.


These all-American martial arts also brings to mind the kung-fu cowboy from "Knights of Cydonia."

#2 in the Bee article made me smile. Unique way to get someone in the party van. Scrolling further down, the next article involves little dinosaurs (no T. rexes, sadly), and the previous one, a tube-man.
