'weird/abnormal shrimp' i definetly knowwe took this unit in science last year lol. its an extinct genus of anomalocaridid. they r closely related to arthropods...

[[deleted user]]

Well... this Burgess Shale, Cambrian fauna is my animal mascot. This one guy at my school said Anomalocaris does not exist just because he couldn't find it in his portable-electronic dictionary.

[Vina]

well they do. ppl have found fossils of them...i think...yes, they have. and just cuz u cant find a word in the dictionary doesnt mean that it doesnt exist...

[[deleted user]]

Ask the guy at my school. I told him I will get my revenge, I am the last of my Anomalocaris kind.

[Vina]

lol wow. they r extinct...lol give me anohter question

[[deleted user]]

What is Hallucigenia? I'm not really quizing you, I just want to see if you know my favorite creatures of the Burgess Shale. Speaking of Trilobites, on Friday, when he said we don't have homework. I asked for homework and he said to do a science project on the Trilobite.

[Vina]

lol nice. but why would u like homework?

hallucigenia? is like a hallucination or something? i have no clue

[[deleted user]]

I just get bored over the weekends and I need something to keep me... 'occupied'.
Hallucigenia is a creature that is known for it's dream-like appearance. As you can see the word, 'hallucination' or 'hallucinate'.

[Vina]

lol. oh ok then. can i ask u some questions now?

[[deleted user]]

Sure... I suck at geography. Well, at least I'll try.

[Vina]

it might not be geography...ok first question

[[deleted user]]

Dang it, I know I heard the Viet Cong some where.

[Vina]

[Vina]

its weird cuz if we had to talk in vietnamese, then i would have to call u em. which makes u younger than me...and u have to call me chi which makes me older than u...

[[deleted user]]

I can read part of it.

[Vina]

ok...what does it say?

[[deleted user]]

Sub doc thought I install that right now or something like that.

[Vina]

what?!?! i said "i think u can read this right?" i meant the part in vietnamese if u dont know what im talking about...

[[deleted user]]

Well, I use google translator and it was wrong. I just can't translate it into english.

[Vina]

i know. if u talk in vienamese and u try to translate it into english...it sounds weird. like if i say de cai non len tren bang. then it would translate into put the hat on the table. well this normal, but when we say onto, it translates to len tren, and it sounds weird if u translate it back into english...well u probably dont know what im talking about but if u talk in vietnamese al lthe time then u would know...

[Vina]
