I’m not big into dinosaurs generally, but there’s some hard-to-define quality of paleontology detective work that’s a special delight. This is a prime example: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-11538-w

Many years ago, after an ill-timed sliding back of a seat following a large meal of Joe's Stone Crab takeout, a group of friends decided "right in the crabs and spinach" should be some kind of rhyming slang for getting hit in the solar plexus.
@grantimatter [science voice:] We theorize that the ingestion of the crab tissue and the leafy material was intentional but that getting whanged real bad right in the torso was not.
@vruba Only eat shellfish in epochs with an O in them
@vruba thank you for adding the phrase "dinosaurian defecators" to my world.
[nodding thoughtfully:] As true of me today as it was of hadrosaurs 75 million years ago.
