    "This bum splitting turd (coprolite) was found in 1972 beneath the site of what was to become the York branch of Lloyds Bank and may be the largest example of fossilised human faeces ever found, measuring a whopping 20cm (8 in) long and 5cm (2 in) wide! Analysis of the stool has indicated that its producer subsisted largely on meat and bread whilst the presence of several hundred parasitic eggs suggests they were riddled with intestinal worms. In 1991, York Archaeological Trust employee and paleoscatologist, Dr Andrew Jones, made international news with his appraisal of the item for insurance purposes: "This is the most exciting piece of excrement I've ever seen... In its own way, it's as irreplaceable as the Crown Jewels". The layers that covered the coprolite were moist and peaty. They preserved not only the coprolite but also timber, textiles and leather. Put simply, this is a fossilized human turd. Possibly the largest and – bizarrely – most valuable poo on record. It dates back to approximately the 9th century and the person responsible is believed to be a Viking."

    The mining billionaire Gina Rinehart has demanded the National Gallery of Australia remove her portrait from an exhibition by the award-winning artist Vincent Namatjira.

    That portrait looks more like Rosie O’Donnell.

    IDF is going into Rafah within the next 10 days, been bombing around the edges to gauge US reaction. It's on! 

    Probably another 15,000 will die shortly. 

    34,000 dead confirmed, another 13,000 missing, witnesses report the smell of corpses all over.  At the end, 70,000 dead meaning 1 of every 30 Gazans killed. 

    Legit question.  Are there combatants included in the 34000 dead?

    There wasn't a thread for it at the time but thanks for showing up with zero clue of what was going on at the time. 

    There was a thread there 35 minutes ago when you posted that comment

    We're not a bunch of robots. People have emotions, especially about news stories, especially one that hits really close to home.

    Well then, take it to the thread about the protest. It’s not that difficult.

    I doubt it but I'll give it a try.  Every time someone suggests a place I haven't tried, I'm always willing to try it, but inevitably when I go there I'm disappointed and wish I'd just gone to Tan My instead.

    My wife is Vietnamese and has been here in US for 5 years.  She swears that this is better than most places back in Vietnam.

    Tan My around the corner is much better, it's actually the best pho in Austin.  When I heard a car had run through a pho place in North Austin near the Target at Ohlen Road, I was screaming in my head "NOOOOO, please don't let it be Tan My."

    I mean, it still sucks for Pho Van of course, but ya know...

    I’m going to have to disagree with you.

    Pho Phung Luu is the best pho in Austin.
