Dry the turd out and soak it in sodium silicate, aka waterglass.

If you want to get educated on coprolite look here:

At least in developed countries.

I've got an abundance of material to work with. Some folks say I'm full of it.

I've left specimens all over the country and in parts of Baja, maybe Canada even. And not just in septic and sewage systems. Camping and hunting has allowed me to inoculate many areas of the country. Mostly in rural/wild areas, but sometimes due to emergency conditions maybe in a more urban setting, say the side of a highway. But my problem is I don't think any will survive for posterity.

Not only for the scientists of the future (Human, ALIEN, or some combination thereof), we have to consider the slumlords and renegades of the future, out in the plowed fields and on the hillsides, looking for artifacts. Can you imagine their surprise and happiness at finding a genuine 21st century petrified turd!

Be like jumping up and down in the field............"I found a turd, a fossilized dookie! Fugg them arrowheads and scrapers, how many of these does ol' Jonesy down the road have in his collection. I'm making a special shadowbox for this one, blue velvet for the background. Take it to the county fair and everything".

I need some help here folks. Anyone with experience in fossilizing stuff that can be transferred to "butthole Baby Ruths"?

The future will expect good results.


If you have plenty to work with...
Why not try something more significant?
Perhaps packing Pelosi in it would work?
She is practically a fossil already...


Perhaps someone along those lines would act as a catalyst to petrification?

V2.0 of this.


I like the V1.O better.

Someone I know has one of them fancy iPhones that makes "memojis".

I hate them too.

Coolio, thanks for the link.

Studied them in Archaeology class some.

I would base your research on the scientific knowledge of Twinkies.

Maybe you could eat a whole lot of Twinkies beforehand?

Maybe the space-age celaphone of a Twinkie wrapper might help?

Possibly proximity to 11 adjoining Twinkies in a 12-pack would provide camaraderie for longevity?

Good luck to us all.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi. Those are the best examples of fossilized turds I've seen.

Coprolite production:

Cover turd with 3,000 feet of mud.
Allow to cure for 50 million years, checking for doneness every million or so.
