oxfordtolstoy
Something you weren't supposed to.
idontgetsarcasm
Good thing you cut through it to make sure it was important. (I know the reddit stuff, just... okay guys?)
Massdoedsapparaten
You just cut the dragon-egg in halfs. The world is lost.
SirGentleman

IalwaysladyfaptoTomHardy
Update OP! Is it Ambergris? Did you get it checked?
justcaitlin
What made you look at that rock, pick up a knife and think, 'I'll try to cut it in half with this!'
kdizzzzy
That was my thought exactly!
RedUsagi
I found one of these, it's very very squishy.

A nope of some kind
BlueStringsAttached
The more I ponder this, the more I think this deserves more than fourth place.
billiebitkiller
God I had a terrifying fucking dream like this last night, where I popped a pimple on my face and maggots came out.
TheNumber6
It's clearly a thing with a hicky-do inside it.
KelseyJo
A rock. With a worm.
kernelzklukz

Cooterdew
Are there any other potatoes?
MeessterVal
As someone from Idaho, ass potatoes are a special kind, but they do exist.
Chernobyx
Ambergris! Shit's rare, yo. Literally.
Chev8t8

excepet whale vomit is usually rock hard not soft enough to slice threw with a screw driver.
Xikiri
That's not a screw driver, sir.
RickyBobbyShakenBake
Sooo... Whale vomit.
wineandcats
or poop
iamthisguy247
whale, shit, I was not expecting that.
qussow
whale vomit*
FlamingEwok
I like how reddit immediately knows it's some super rare and expensive substance and imgur is just like "it looks like an old ass potato"
rawcat
Holy shit.
hannes3120
quite literally :D
lildude52ca
looks more like mold or a fungus to me.
NicNac225
FINALLY, I knew what something was because of reading Moby Dick!
RottenState
I calls 'em like I sees 'em... Whale biologist!
swimmingbird
I think you're the only one who gets the reference.
bentwrenches
Is that a Titleist?
AWdeV
Oh so it's walrus hork.
LaurenEnglish
unlucky, can't even sell that shit! It's illegal in US I believe to trade in it. You can hand it over for free tho I think! :P
LeBish
Precious Hamburgers?
wineandcats
@helicopterbeanie beat you to it
LeBish

TzimisceBeast
Wake up. Sit down at computer. Think to self, "I wish I could find a lump of whale barf." Immediately question life choices.
wineandcats
or whale poop* :)
TzimisceBeast
That really didn't help me feel better about my life choices. :(
wineandcats
just know anything that comes out of your body will never be worth that much! lol
TzimisceBeast
What! I'll show you! I'll sell both kidneys and then we'll see about that! You done did it now.
rickim24
And now, ignorant whale-lovers, we'll see who's boss when I make Mushu jump through this hoop! Jump, Mushu!
Sprinkleton
It's not though. I worked in kitchens 11 years. That is a potato. WAS a potato
wineandcats
and wouldnt a potato in the water like.. not turn to stone?
wineandcats
Sprinkleton
Potatoes can get twice that big, can float, and when they rot the skin can thicken. tmyk
wineandcats
sure. but wouldnt a potato rot and break down as opposed to turning to stone with a worm inside it?
Sprinkleton
Sure - that thing is completely rotten, but the skin is quite resilient and can hold out a long period of time. Also, there's a worm in it
zhieson
Apparently it's illegal to possess or trade in the U.S. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambergris
MickMackPaddyWhack
There was a kid recently that got some money for finding some.
wineandcats
hes in Australia, which it looks like is also illegal.
duckie523
Can someone explain this? You're not harming or killing the whale, he just found it right?
geekmonger
Perhaps, if you were illegally poaching whales for ambergris, and were caught with some of it, you would also claim to have "just found it"?
duckie523
Ah. Didn't account for the possibility of dishonesty. Thanks geekmonger
Glumerlink
Well, generally to get ambergris they effectively scare the ever living shit out of a whale and torture it a bit. It's incredibly inhumane
duckie523
Oh geez. I see. Thanks for the info! And sometimes you just happen across a potato-y rock and cut it open to find that it's ambegris!
Glumerlink
Yuppers, that looks natural. If he goes through the right channels he could still make out on it :D
IStealCommentsFromReddit
Looks like about 8-10 thousand dollars worth of Ambergris. I'm not even joking. You're a lucky bastard.
CareIDoNot
Hahaha love the name combo
YesIChangedMyNameAgain
Of course, like mentioned on Reddit, it's illegal to sell/purchase in most countries.
squirrel1
At first I was like "He stole that from reddit!" and then I was like "Oh, he stole that from reddit."

KitchenSink
What is it? And is it like the rock with flesh inside thing that was on the front page a few months ago?
SexualHarrasmentPanda
Ambergris is some wax like substance that is naturally produced in a whale's stomach. They usually end up either throwing it up or, 1/3
SexualHarrasmentPanda
as I've sometimes heard, shitting it out. It is one of the rarest substances on earth, worth more than gold. 2/3
SexualHarrasmentPanda
They artificially make a substance very similar to it in the perfume industry. 3/3
