For me, it's the stegosaurus. Those backplates are awesome.

I was interested enough in dinosaurs to learn what we were taught in school.  Fossils from that age are pretty cool.  I was more interested in how scientists found and identified the fossils.  But if I was to pick a favorite it would be this one:

I never paid enough attention to dinosaurs to have a favorite.
I have always been more fond of sea creatures than other animals, so these dinosaurs look pretty cool:

You’ve been watching too much Jurassic park.    

In any case Liopleuodon was not a dinosaur.

That’s total bullshit.     We actually know of no dinosaurs, none, zero, that plausibly had a marine life style.   None except the spinosaurids even plausibly had mainly aquatic life style.    Not one of the big marine reptiles of Mesozoic were closely related to the dinosaur clad.

Bit like dimetrodon, which was -my- favorite dinosaur as a kid (we had lizards with sails and penny necks and it was just so easy to work them in with my little tanks and army men). Then one day you learn it isn't a dino at all and that blows your mind too.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
