Why wouldn't they lower their head to vomit? Everything does...

The small dinosaur:

Hate to be that guy and ruin everyone's fun but this is science memes, dinosaurs like that would not have there head up like that. They rarely raised there head above there shoulders.
Yeah, that classic image of tall sauropods 🦕 is probably wrong. Also like someone else mentioned they wouldve probably lowered there head anyway to vomit.
I'm impressed that you managed to misspell "their" every time there. The only correct spelling was in the quoted text.
Like, I want to up vote the fact checking, but I want to down vote the careless grammar. I'm so torn.
This and are we all ok with the vomit containing Dino Bones?
Edit: or this the bones of dinos killed by the puke force?
So I went and stalked them. They largely ignore that ‘their’ exists, which is amazing, since their texts are otherwise near-perfect English.
A few examples of their using ‘their’: 1
[F]or the police to chase their had to be a reasonable suspicion […]
Their approval among there base of shias has only gone up since the conflict started
[…] let people know about their bias […]
Actually, the science does not seem to be settled, with there being controversy about the specific neck posture.

Same thing with giraffes.

It's a huge misconception of unrealistic biomechanics.
That giraffe is drinking.
When they're not intentionally bending down to reach something low down like a water hole, they look like this:


This is vertical propaganda.

Look I can keep posting photos I've taken of giraffes all day. All you have to say is "please post more giraffe pics"
Are you talking about puking or just how they hold themselves? Because if it’s the later, have you ever been to a zoo? They clearly walk around with their necks held at like a 60-45 degree angle up from their spine. We can look up pictures of this in modern day too.
Giraffes literally have a rubber-like band tht keeps their head vertical at rest.
So yes, they do.
Let me guess, next you're gonna claim the Egyptians already invented rubber bands to keep their brachiosaurs upright? Not falling for it.
Do we even know if they were capable of vomiting?
Seeing how both us and birds can vomit, probably. I imagine that developed very early. If you eat something harmful, you're dead if you can't vomit. If you don't have the brainpower to identify safe and harmful things, you're pretty screwed.
Didn' know birds can vomit. Horses can't.
"Brachiosaurus puke crater" is an excellent band name
Try explaining that one after death.
"How'd you die? I got eaten by a T-Rex!"
"I, um well, I...I was going for a walk to find food and I know following this big guy who never eats the lower stuff is great, he cant reach it and the bugs that fall off the trees hes eating are great! As I was munching on a fleeing bug, the big guy burps and I looked up to see him puke. No matter how fast I tried to scurry away the goo was too much and it squished me flat"
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully you have better luck on this side"
This reminds me of a similar paper - "pressures produced when penguins poo"
Why have I had to wait two and a half years to receive this important information?
Ok sure. But how many keg stands would they do before vomiting?
Now I have to know: Do we have fossilized dinosaur puke? I know we have fossilized dung. Or could they not puke like horses.
