Coprolite makes a great insult. I'm sure we can all think of some prominent fossilized turds.

Of course real coprolites are wealth of information and a welcome find, unlikely the fucking coprolites who seized control of the US.

oh, he's definitely not fossilized. you can watch him ooze in the afternoon sun during summer.

Coprolits and Velocirraptors mainly

it was a good line up until the "i'll see myself out" line. makes it sound like you're embarrassed for making an attempt at a pun. same thing with "i'll be here all week, folks, try the duck"

it helped me, because I have no idea what those are, but that line really solidified that it was a dad joke. I'm also a few beers in atm.

i haven't had a beer in almost a month. gonna pick up a few later to celebrate getting the fuck out of the psych ward (DW i didn't pull the fire alarm and escape amidst the chaos, they let me out)

If the post didn't make it clear it's a pun, I wouldn't have noticed it.

I wish this had been posted yesterday. I could have made som many Microsoft 365 Corprolite app jokes

I'll admit it took me longer than it should have to figure out what a coprolite is, but at least I figured it out before googling it.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 2 points 5 days ago

Google "Jorvik coprolite"

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

The only reason I knew what this is, is because of No Man's Sky.

Animal Crossing for me

[-] rockerface@lemmy.cafe 3 points 5 days ago

Why are they called coprolites? Mine is actually quite heavy

[-] Bourff@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I know its a joke, but English dropped the h. From greek lithos, stone.
