MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 12:46 PMI did this list a while ago, but a lot of new members have come since then and it could use some updating. I was honored when Chris had shared the original on the JW Google Plus Community, so thanks for that one Chris :)

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 12:51 PMWhy weren't the Honerable mentions on the list they had higher bite forces then most of the animals on the list.
still a a good list though.

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 12:51 PMThanks Raptor. Put a lot of thought into it :)
And the reason why the Honorable Mentions weren't on the list was because it's a top 10, not top 13(I'm a bit OCD about that kind of thing). They simply had bite forces comparable to some of the others on the list and should be mentioned because of that. Hope that explains it :)

MemberAllosaurusJul-20-2014 12:56 PMI am also a bit OCD. I think we are OCD when it comes to certain things...
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 12:59 PMI can agree with that Raptor.
Raptor-401
MemberAllosaurusJul-20-2014 1:01 PMYes. For example, I own the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, and it bothers me so much that 3 of them are paperback while the others are hardcover. I pkan to rpelace them paperback ones soon.
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 1:03 PMYeah, I can be the same way about some things.
Think I should do a Top 10 Top 10 Lists? Not today or anything, but at some point?
Raptor-401
MemberAllosaurusJul-20-2014 1:05 PMYes. Maybe even do a Top 10 Stories... I think you or Mr. Happy should do a Top 10 Stories/Series. You guys after all are online almost daily and read pretty much every discussion. And you guys have been on here for over a year.
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!

MemberTyrannosaurus RexJul-20-2014 1:06 PMI heard you like top ten lists.

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 1:08 PMMrHappy, that's a major understatement, lol
Well Raptor, I wouldn't want to do that because, whether I can help it or not, I'd be biased towards The Fight To Survive. Maybe somebody more impartial should do it.
Raptor-401
MemberAllosaurusJul-20-2014 1:09 PMPaden would be good to do it, I think.
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!

MemberTyrannosaurus RexJul-20-2014 1:10 PMThe fight to survive is damn good, you have every right to be biased toward it.
Speaking of which, when will TFTS:SF be ready?

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 1:10 PMI would do it but, I think I'm to new around here to have read some of the classics.

MemberAllosaurusJul-20-2014 1:11 PM@Hipho, that's why I said Rex Fan or Mr. Happy. They have read pretty much every single discussion.

MemberCompsognathusJul-20-2014 1:15 PMAh, the tranny again, haha.
Lord Vader
MemberTyrannosaurus RexJul-20-2014 1:18 PMYep. Original tranny blew up (it was on borrowed time to start though), and then we get the new one in, and after trying to drive it, CRUNCH! Torque converter seal too. Looking for another one again, taking the one that's in it out today.

Youre fat, and I'm not sugarcoating it cause you'd probably eat that too.
