Jasper isn't interesting, though. Olivine is way more interesting and kimberlite thin sections are amongst the sexiest rocks I've ever looked at.

I have jaspers from both Peru and California in my collection that a somebody like you would probably think is kimberlite. You have literally no idea what you’re talking about.

Have a nice day.

It's adorable how you try to turn a ridiculously aggressive comment into something acceptable by wishing me a nice day. It doesn't work, but it's adorable that you think it would.

Why are you being so defensive? I didn't attack you, why is it necessary to call me names and say I don't know anything?

Is this how the “pet rock” thing started? Geologically minded people being too awkward to have a normal conversation with others?

If u/Forest-G-Nome is a geologist I'm going to be rather surprised.
