When I hear certain clicking noises, it causes me to hear and feel a single pulsing sound in my right ear. Anyone know what this could be? I've tried looking it up but everything coming up is pulsate tinnitus, which I know it isn't.

If triceratops was really an herbivore why does it have a beak shaped basically like modern birds of prey? Like, was it a scavenger or some shit too? Modern deer and cows will eat dead animals if they get the chance I know, but they haven't developed any special adaptations to aid that.

To parrot literally the first thing google produced,
Quote
Triceratops was an herbivore, existing mostly on shrubs and other plant life. Its beak-like mouth was best suited for grasping and plucking rather than biting, according to a 1996 analysis in the journal Evolution. It also likely used its horns and bulk to tip over taller plants.

Some idle extra checking showed nothing contradicting that in more recent studies. "Basically like" carries a lot of weight, and there's room in that package to go from meatbird to shrubdino.

Eh, it fits. Plus it gave me an excuse to type shrubdino, I call that a win for the thread. Shrubdino is a good word.

Probably getting whacked with the pommel of a sword?  Didn't they also have those arrows that had basically blunt rocks on the tips instead of sharp arrows?  That may be closer, since it's ranged.  Or just having a rock thrown at you.

Spiked mancatcher.

Likely complete with the thing where the authorities murder someone "accidentally" with a "non-lethal" weapon.

Mancatchers weren't usually spiked, or have I been picturing them wrong?
