This is funny because this person’s name resembles the dinosaur which was called “pterodactyl” and that is why this is funny
first*
I get a little jolly every time someone writes “first”, and they were actually beaten by someone a few seconds before them. take that.
oh yea LOL
Good job.
Thank you Captain Obvious.
I would love to be named Pterodactyl… wouldn’t everybody love to be named after a dinosaur?
Pterodactyls weren’t dinosaurs.
and it wouldnt work so well with others anyways. can you imagine? ViLossy Rapotor, Steg Asoras, Ty Rano Soras. poor kids would never survive middle school
And there would be way too many sore a$$es.
Archie Opterix? Diploda Cus?
Tryce Eratops!
What were they then? Seriously, I wasnna know.
Flying reptiles.
…
Unamused Ninja is unamused.
Oh fudgemonkeys and buttnuggets, he’s right! Kintrex is right!
Through use of my handy dictionary/thesaurus/Apple/Wikipedia application, I discovered that pterodactyls are NOT dinosaurs. They are in fact pterosaurs, which are sometimes thought to be dinosaurs. This, however, is incorrect. “Dinosaur,” as I discovered, is in fact a division that applies strictly to a certain group of reptiles in that period with a unique upright stance. Despite the relation between “dinos” and birds, most flying reptiles (pterosaurs, for example) are not classified as dinosaurs.
Huh…
Oh, come on.
Next you’ll be telling me that a pillbug is a tiny crustacean that can walk around on land, just because it looks kind of like a crawfish or something.
Um, actually, nothing of what I said is anything of a “cuz it loks like” statement. I actually quoted info that has been scientifically examined and proven.
Your statement relates more to the misinterpretation stating that these creatures are dinosaurs because they are cretaceous period reptiles.
He was being playful and agreeing with you. Pillbugs/slaters *are* crustaceans, and are frequently misidentified as insects or whatnot in a similar fashion to pterosaurs being misidentified as dinosaurs!
Hold your fire! Holdddd!!!!
…
He said it, DZ. Not me.
only because they put “terrestrial” into the label.
this is the closest thing to an actual fail on failblog over year
Thank you Captain! What would we do without your incredible powers of obvious observation. Why you and Captain Hindsight do the world great loads of justice and good.
You don’t say?….. I think your job is done here captain ._.
Either someone is pulling a fast one on the newspaper, or those were some spiteful parents.

It was probably a fake name given to sound funny like Harry Balzogne (pronounced balls on ya) or Amanda huginkiss. Bart Simpson has been doing these for more than 20 years now
I worked with an African man whose real name was so difficult to spell and pronounce, he took to giving fake names when reserving tables in restaurants. He would collect the oddest and funniest names he saw doing data entry. Then he settled on one, because he thought it was so amusing an American would actually have such a name: Harry Balls.
On another website, I met a man who swore his name was Hugh Jorgan. Pronounced, in Swedish, Yorgan. But not in America.
I think that name is awesome! If that was my name, I would say I had the coolest parents ever. EVER.
Dactyl.. Woohoo
Anyone? The Ducktales?
:/
Half marks.
The trick is that there’s no such last name as “Dactyl”.
Don’t google Gene Masseth.
LOL! Gene Masseth. That’s hilarious.
In what terrible world are ptero and Tahra pronounced anything alike?
I dunno, when I saw it I recognized what it was trying to make but why not Tara?
In America, where “Tara” is pronounced “Terror”, rather than “Tara”.
How would you pronounce Tahra? Here in the US, it’s usually the same as Tara and Tera. Which is identical to ptero.
This isn’t an article from Wisconsin is it? I knew a girl by the same name oddly enough =P Parents are cruel but humorous.
It’s in Canada.
Yes, the NDP has started campaigning in Wisconsin.
look closely at the left pom pom. it looks like its doin’ the birdie!
Since that person’s an NDP supporter I am guessing it’s a fake name…
I see Harperbot has you in the clutches of his mind control. Next time, try to think for yourself.
Don’t know about the girl, but that blond dude is Haywood Jablowme.
I tell reporters my name is Bill Ding.
It’s Morphin’ Time!
Lee O’Pluradon
Sounds like a derby name maybe she is a roller girl .
i worked with a guy named Wyde Andrew Wake; Wyde A Wake. he goes by Andy
She probably gave a fake name to the reporter. It’s funny but not a parenting fail. I highly doubt there’s a “Dactyl” clan out there some where.
…This was on WIN! yesterday or the day before. PARADOX! D:
WIN for the dinosaurs and pterosaurs.
My friend wanted to name a child “Hugh Jass” lol

Terry Dactyl isn’t bad either.
There’s a drummer in my town by the name of Kerry Dactyl, and he is awesome.
