For all of you who love big words, here's one of my favorites. The cartoon isn't the funniest in the entire world, but on the other hand, I don't know that a big-word-spouting t-rex needs that great of a punchline.
It's also worth noting that there's an example of irony here--the cartoonist apparently knows how to use big words like "sesquipedalian," but not that "alright" is actually the improper form of the two separate words "all right."
Keep on integrating those vocab words into classroom conversation!

That's really, really unfunny.
'Sesquipidalian' is an awesome word, though.
Hmm. I wonder who that is!
Where did that cartoon come from?
