If not friend, why friend shaped?

Awww. Cute little friend just needs some belly rubs.
- Yeah. Great-great-great-grandchicken, so clearly friend shaped.

they are reptiles, so when i am cold, they are slow
- Woke up and chose violence this morning, so here goes:
  Akshully, the Jurassic Park creatures are not reptiles for a number of reasons.
  Reptile is paraphyletic and arbitrarily groups species regardless of their lineage.
  T. Rex was likely warmblooded as its descendants are.
  The creatures are not entirely dinosaurs. They're hybrids of dinosaurs, and modern animals that the Jurassic Park scientists believed were most similar genetically.
  Anyway, thanks for commenting, and I hope I've conveyed an appreciative and respectful tone. I sincerely just like sharing, learning, and discussing things.
  Also, fight me.
  
  don't wanna fight, but i do want some clarification:
  were they actually warm blooded, or that pseudo warm blooded thing some reptiles and fish do where they aren't exactly warm ir cold blooded, but kinda in-between?
  
  Very interesting. Were T-Rex really warm blooded, i thought that was a trait dinosaurs did not have at all and an advantage e.g. mammals had, allowing us to adapt better to the shifting climate?
  EDIT: birds even inherited warm bloodness from the dinosaurs: https://www.livescience.com/dinosaur-metabolism-warm-cold-blooded the more you know
  sorry for spreading missinformation
