This one is a classic.
Of course, the last bit, about having brains the size of walnuts is not true. As this article points out immediately,
"Stegosaurus is often said to have had a brain the size of a walnut. This is grossly unfair – it was probably the size of a lime."
So, dinos still had pretty small brains, but then, as I've pointed out before, bigger doesn't always mean better (at least not when you're talking about brains).
