DOWNTOWN — SUE the sassy T. rex has — once again — gotten into a Twitter fight.
The T. rex, who once graced the Field Museum’s great hall, took to Twitter over the weekend to dunk on New York City. And Portland. And St. Louis.
Yes, SUE took on three cities at once, playfully tweeting that New York smells, Portland has weird carpet and St. Louis is … St. Louis.
You must be new. I burned Cleveland to the ground after the Cubs won. https://t.co/wqoRoHpMBC

The dinosaur’s harshest words came for New York, which “smells like milk left out in the sun.” Chicago, meanwhile “has a chocolate factory downtown so everything smells like a batch of freshly baked cookies.”
Of course, Twitter spats are nothing new for SUE. The T. rex is famous for cheeky tweets on Twitter, where it has more than 42,000 followers.
SUE even got into a friendly fight with the Shedd Aquarium in late July.
Here’s the latest tit-for-tat in all its glory:

(Lives in a $5500/month studio in a building owned by an absentee Emirati sheik. Subway takes two hours to go anywhere and the lack of alleys means there’s garbage everywhere)
(Calls itself “The Greatest City on Earth” but is so onion skinned that it can’t handle the *slightest* criticism. Like say… an astrophysicist that can’t handle the gentlest of ribbing and snitches to my boss when the dunks were too funny)

Just… terrible civic planning.

What they need is a massive fire to consume their entire city so they can rebuild it better than before. https://t.co/YfrHGiJUnl
The whole city smells like milk left out in the sun.

– We just serve it to New Yorkers so they leave and don’t come back and jack up rents. https://t.co/Ku3ePHhMup
The dinosaur also took swipes at Portland, Oregon, and St. Louis.
Con: It’s in Portland.

The city that somehow celebrates its… (checks notes) “airport carpet” over any kind of world class museums or architecture. https://t.co/DMY14NvT8r
There’s a tv show with eight seasons worth of content about how silly your town is. #PutABirdOnIt https://t.co/0AuncDDLLz

Man, the Portland Defenders have logged in tonight to fight about carpet.

Fine: You have a nice carpet. I’m sure Sam Bowie enjoyed it when he landed there while Michael Jordan went to Chicago. https://t.co/fIWkl4IC1G
