Well, the term "dinosaur" can also be used for something that's old or antic, right? XD
...I'll be happy if this even gets accepted in this month's contest, actually.

UPDATE: as some pointed out, I didn't go for actual dinosaurs for this month's contest. Mostly because I knew I couldn't offer much in terms of visual quality, so as always, I had to make use of cleverness - or comedy. And after some thinking, this idea popped up in my mind.

This reminds me of a video on Youtube were teens were trying to play the original Super Mario Bros on the classic Nintendo Entertainment System.
I it was a bit amusing to see them figure out how it all worked.

It was a big surprise to see the Teens React to the NES a few days after I did this image. XD
I wish I hadn't watched that, though. I felt myself aging at least one decade.

O . O Do my eyes DECEIVE me??? Is that an Atari console Button Mash is playing with???
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep. And apparently, he has no understanding on how it works.
Wouldn't blame him. Nowadays, any controller has double the sticks and 7 times the buttons than of the Atari's joystick. XD

Well, I'm old enough to remember playing on it.
I just thought of some funny dialogue following Sweetie Belle's line.
Where's the HDMI input?
There isn't one, dear...
Then how'd you get this thing to work!?
.... It's a family secret.
Hey, mom! You know this "joystick" thing is not very practical?
But it was all we had in those days...
... I didn't know you and dad lived in The Dark Ages...
.... Don't knock it 'til you try it, Button!

Clever. While everyone else does Jurassic Park themed entries, you go and do something we wouldn't expect.

I just knew people'd use actual dinosaurs and create great images, so I had to throw a curveball, so to say, in order to have any chance in the contest. XD

Yeap, I see those are Atari & NES consoles respectively. 
Why not you hook them all up into an emulator in a PC.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. CRTs used to be in that resolution too.

You score a bonus point for clever use of the word, right?

I hope so. I can't win with visual quality or skills, so I have to break out the cleverness.

And it did, much to my surprise. XD

3. One that is hopelessly outmoded or unwieldy: "The old, big-city teaching hospital is a dinosaur" (Peggy Breault).
