Last night my husband and I were discussing dinosaurs.
This occurs more frequently than you might imagine.
Specifically, we were discussing what our favourite dinosaurs were.
Rob's is the pachycephalosaurus ('Friar Tuck' to anyone that's seen The Lost World). In fact, here's a shot from the film to get a visual:

I would look into this further, but I have to go hug a stuffed sheep named Wiley and a stuffed stegosaurus named Carrot now until I stop feeling sad about The Land Before Time.
