    Ha! It is from the vast group of plants I was taught to call a GDYC, "g'd damn yellow composite." I'm going to call it a "prickly lettuce" or maybe "prickly lettuce" and let you do the foot work to confirm or repudiate that. I would consider it a weed in my garden, and would pull it up by its dandelion-like tap root and then throw it on the compost pile.
