I used to have a pet rock but then it died

eek eek eek

but.....HOW?

xd

I imagine a large gravel-machine was involved.

No no no, that's how they breed into little baby pet rocks..  

[Broken Keys]

Well......I found it one day completely in bits and pieces and me being only 10 at the time burst into tears. Turned out, it had flint on the inside. My second one, well, That's lost probably dead too!

I've seen pet rocks in shop windows with googly eyes and stuck on hair.

Yes, but are they REAL pet rocks? Huh? You know, the ones with the box and the guide that look suspiciously manufactured...
I suppose they count. The whole notion of pet rocks is ultimately pointless though.

Of course they're not -real- pet rocks. Giving it human like features defeats the point, does it not?
Shhh! Don't say they're pointless! You'll hurt iggy the igneous's feelings!

Not unless they are trying to produce Easter Island minatures. That COULD be a lucrative business...
And I suppose there is a 'Sedric' the 'sed'imentary and a 'Greta' the 'meta'-morphic as well?

It could...
Don't be silly. Cedric is spelt with a C, and it's Neville the Metamorphic. 3nodding

I doubt that the demand for such is overly high...Really? I thought that Cedric could be spelt with either. You know, one of those colloquially warped spellings.

You'd be suprised what gullible american tourists are willing to pay for.
Please note the use of the word 'siliceous' in my post. It took me quite some time to look it up to get the spelling right, so you missed it in your quote, seeing as I added it in in an edit... hoorah for Terry Pratchett and his vocabluary increasing novels...

Yes. I saw a programme where this Amerian woman decided to collect thousands of Princess Diana dolls. I think that gullible only scratches the surface with Americans. Especially American tourists. Or Japanese tourists. Because THEY can't understand anything AS WELL as being gullible. *looks up* It isn't in the dictionary... pfft. Not that it really matters anymore. Well done for being all wordy though.

It's hard to tell if Japanese tourists are gullible, seeing as they talk quietly in Japenese. American tourists are generally loud and fat and wear brightly coloured tents that hurt your eyes to look at. They mis-pronounce everything, and don't care about finding out about whatever interesting historical site they're visiting, as long as they have a photo of them standing in front of it to prove they've been there. To them the world is just one big sticker book, and they're filling in the gaps.
Thankyou. ^-^

Ironically, I was actually going to touch on that if you didn't... biggrin

Yes, because Japanese tourists may be secretly humouring us. How could you tell? They always have that glint in their eyes that says more that just the humble foreign tourist...
As for american tourists... well, they just have no intelligence to pull off such a feat that the Japanese tourists mastermind.

I hate it when they say stuff like "isnt it quaint" so loudly. They are the ones trying to hug Hamish the cow or asking where Nessie is (about 3 hrs drive north) and play golf constantly. Yes, American tourists annoy me. Pity they are probably the biggest source of income in my area. Cos we cant just ban them.

3 hours north? That must mean you live south of Fort William or somewhere thereabouts.

I love that area, and have done ever since last summer when I went there.

Yep. Theres not actually a lot of people who live up there. No jobs. Except for American tourists created jobs. Now I think about it American tourists are vital for the economy.

In some ways, yes. Remember though that I was a tourist that contributed!

Mallaig was nice on another note. Very isolated and scottishy-seasidey. I'd love to live near there one day - along the road that goes there. heart

Yes, it was west of Fort William along the west coast. There was a lovely secluded beach that was crescent-shaped and epitomised Scotland for me. That and the quaintness (sorry Ph_ish) of Mallaig town.

Prepares to skin you alive. The quaintness is an act. Like the Japanese.
