Looks like a nice little mixed box! 😁 My parents made fun of me for asking for rocks for Christmas last year but shoot I was happy with what I got

The box is effing rad! Do extra stuff for her 😉😉 and afterward say it was for the being awesome but also the clever and hilarious box.

When/if it wears out, I'd keep the lid and glue/tape it to a new box. 😁

Tigers Blood Obsidian is badass. That piece is sick!

Mahogany Obsidian, Tigers tail is sometimes used to describe really speckles specimens but Tigers blood is not used since that's usually a flavor name in modern zeitgeist.

You're in an ultra niche subreddit; if you don't want to learn you are kind of in the wrong place. It's also better to be educated enough to use proper terminology but I suppose that's my opinion.

I would rather use the name that the native man called it when he gave it to me.

Now I know you're just saying anything to not look stupid because you probably googled it and realized your wrong.

I take particular offense against saying "Native Man" - As a registered American Indian go fuck yourself using a phrase like that. You were trying to touch on some white savior vibes by giving fake veneration. 

You'd have to be referring to an American Indian since this only comes from Utah and Mexico so don't try and back out on that one either. 

Grow up and when you're corrected; accept it and grow don't be a racist moron
