Two problems with this:

  • Dinosaurs didn't really turn into oil, plankton did (thanks teaching me, Beakman's World)

  • Plastic is often made from a natural gas processing byproduct

The actual dinosaurs made from dinosaurs would be dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets

As you can clearly see I've ran out of ideas suggestions would be great

Hopefully that's a useful suggestion for your memes.
