A long-necked herbivorous dinosaur dat did indeed "grow up to be big and strong from eating its vegetables".
Da Brawntosaurus may indeed be a seemingly-impressive roll-model for parents to cite when trying to get their sweet-tooth-oriented toddlers to gag down their peas and carrots, but I hear dat said ancient giraffe-statured vegetation-chomping lizard may actually have never existed, so perhaps it's less of a mystery why mentioning said chlorophyll-loving-and-therefore-muscle-bound leviathan is often so ineffective at convincing little ones to voraciously chow down on their salad.

Da hot-headed emotional-status of seething jealousy and resentment dat da infamous young Bible-character wif a fiery temper felt on many occasions; his unprovoked/unwarranted rage was so profound and intense dat it even caused him to viciously pursue and throw spears at those he was envious of.

Where someone eagerly/effusively greets you in a super-jovial "hearty handshake" manner merely to hopefully put you more in the mood to give him a loan or ride or other gratuity that he doesn't deserve and probably will not be able/willing to pay you back for.

Da little-known pint-sized lazy-a** relative of da famous --- or infamous --- colonial warmonger-bigwig; if Priscilla Mullins hadn't wanted to marry da latter dude, then she SURE AS SHOOTIN' wouldn't have been interested in da FORMER!
If his bombastic-but-bashful "big guy" relative had not da courage to ask for a lady's hand in marriage himself, probably Kilometers Sittish wouldn't have possessed da nerve to even **ask someone else** to assist him in dis way, and so he likely remained a bachelor all his life.
