While I was taking geology at uni we, people from the department, would often go out for drinks at the end of the day. One of my peers brought along her roommate who was hospitality management or nutrition or some other such major. She starts going on and on about the healing properties and the different auras of various natural crystals. She won't shut up about it, she thinks since we are all geo people this will get our dicks harder than corundum.
Everyone is just letting it happen, but I had never met this girl before, so I guess I didn't know the drill. She pulls out this necklace calls it "Blue Sandstone", starts telling us about how it must have formed in some mineral rich location and after eons in the ground it absorbed so much energy that now it radiates it out and keeps her grounded. Isn't it amazing how something natural can be so beautiful, look how it sparkles and shines it reflects from all angles just like someone who is grounded should. I wish more people would embrace the power of natural gemstones....like you all do.
I can't take it, so I just tell her straight up, that it's glass, normal man-made glass. She is probably older than that hunk of garbage silica, in fact I'm pretty sure it is a Venetian method from centuries ago to sell waste glass. It has no crystal habit, it has no natural energy, it does less to keep you grounded than the beer glass in my hand (at least that has beer in it).
She got pretty pissed. I don't get it are we just supposed to let people be wrong?

You are supposed to fuck her THEN explain to her why her entire worldview is bullshit.
Kill two birds with one stone.
>>8892049
I'm guessing you didn't get laid after that.

Mice copy pasta
>>8892049
sperg, you could've been infusing her with the natural aura of your crystal-hard dick

You didn't do anything wrong. Her reaction is very common for people who hold wrong beliefs very strongly (flat earth, anti-agricultural research, "math is for losers", etc). It's because you told her she's wrong, and she can't come to terms with the possibility of begin wrong. These are the types of people that can't be rational under any type of harsh discussion.
Don't worry about it too much. It's for the best that she be forced to accept the possibility she can be wrong about things.

This. That's no way to talk to a respectable mineral.
>>8892049
Wow, gifted anon spergs out like an autist. Never heard that one before.
>>8892091
You're right. You told here the truth and you should correct people. Just it tends to go better when you are bit more polite.
That said, your anger does sound justified. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
>>8892049
haven't seen this pasta in a while
>>8892049
good copypasta there

A friend of mine wears an amethyst one, if it is even real. She thinks she is a higher energy, what ever the fucking that means, when she wears it.
>>8892049
Where is this pasta from?
>>8892049
Why are you posting this again?
>>8892049
This is obviously why I'm a Virgin
This is a nice copy pasta
They do vibrate indivually and probably give off a measurable frequency.
Healing?! Probably not.
