People online are going crazy over something funny! The Natural History Museum in London has given it's animatronic T-Rex a Christmas sweater... And the joke going around the internet is how is he supposed to take the sweater off with his tiny little arms.

I had to join the site to see/read about it so I didn't but it's nice that T-Rex has a Christmas sweater.

@Vree0937 That's true. Good parents will bug children to wear warm clothing in cold weather.

@DaddyEvil a good marketing strategy, Parents have difficulty to say 'No' to children, espceially for good thing like wear sweater in cold weather.

Good thing it wasn't a Christmas cardigan - T-Rex would have a heck of a time with those buttons !

@DaddyEvil A zipper in the back would be quite difficult to handle too !

He's actually zipped up in the sweater. It zips up the back.

@much2say Well... I've seen the little handle that hooks into a zipper for people to use to zip their dresses up the back.... but the T-Rex might have trouble using that, too.

Were you able to see the photo? I use AdBlock so didn't realize the site blocked people who don't use it. I took a screenshot of the photo so I could let other people see it.

Pretty and I don't really do Christmas and haven't in years. I usually try to get her something and she always tells me she doesn't want anything. *shrug* How about you and your family? Are you all ready for Christmas?

@prashu228 I still make a special meal but it's not usually a traditional one for the US. This year I'm making shawarma for Christmas dinner. I hope you don't eat so much that you burst. I also hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas.

Poor guy. Some how all my kids have super long arms, I must be related to the T-Rex, mine are short. It has come in handy over the years, to have the kids reach things that are to far away, for my short arms, though.

Covid has killed most of the fun for two years. I'm still not sure anything will ever go back to "normal", but people are trying to move on. (Omicron may be screwing up the little bit of "normal" we were getting back. *sigh*)

@FayeHazel That would really be nice but most scientists believe Covid will be with us from now on. Have you seen the video that says the human race has lived with two viruses for millions of years? (It's one of the science channels I watch on YT.)

@DaddyEvil yes. Alas. Bill Gates was saying he believes this business will be over in 2022, I sure hope that's right. I don't know if he's qualified to say or not, but I just really hope all this business with pandemic is over and done
