The exact purpose of the hump, which stood at least 16 inches tall, is not yet known but ideas include temperature regulation and fat storage.Wait what? How does this in any way, shape, or form prompt the question of if humans and dinosaurs lived together? I welcome the author of this blog post or anyone for that matter to show me how this question is raised but while there are questions for sure this one is not one of them. Oh, and don't even get me started on the comments to the post itself.
This exciting discovery has prompted more questions about dinosaurs, including whether humans and dinos lived together and how dinosaurs communicated.

So a lot of people have probably heard about the new dinosaur find that the paper discussing it came out yesterday named Concavenator corcovatus. If you haven't let me recommend these three posts to get you caught up, Tet Zoo, Not Exactly Rocket Science, and Dinosaur Tracking. It is cool in what it represents with the potential of having feathers on its arms but this represents one of the questions we have about this dinosaur. Did it really have feathers? WTF is the use of that hump/bump thing over the hip? This, however, was a new one to me, emphasis mine:
