A miniaturized version of the whole country on the wall using rocks.

Oh you saw the post too

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I'm so about this life.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

THIS is the fucking reason i love the internet.

geologically correct as in "from the area it represents" or as in "typical of the area that it represents?"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I would guess typical but also the right shape, which is why it took him 32 years to find the right Rock and Stone.

Did I hear a rock and stone?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

If you don't rock and stone, you ain't goin' home.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

For rock and stone!

He wants to go viral. I'm sure he said exactly that

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

He might have. I know a couple TikTok grandmas that come on my store showing me shit all the time, “look at this guy, angryseal. He’s gonna go viral!”. It’s how I heard of calvingrindz who is fucking spectacular and on YouTube thank fuck.

Edit:

It’s more likely he said, “I want a’body to see this ya wee bampot.”

Don’t hate me. I googled Scottish slang.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

Very cool. Although he missed the Shetland islands which coincidentally are the most geologically unique part of Scotland.

The work is never over.

Probably hasn't had the opportunity to get out there yet.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Ahh don't bother, they're shetty.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

The police might be interested in the rock from Glasgow.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (3 children)

I’ve heard the Outer Hebrides islands in Scotland have the oldest rocks in the world. Will you ask him if that’s true?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Do you have reason to believe that fossilesque and Harry Jefferies are the same person? If they are not, it is unlikely that Harry will see your question.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Maybe the oldest in Scotland, but that doesn't seem to make the list worldwide.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Okay, I asked him. He said your granpappy's stones are older.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

This is amazing. If anyone knows this Grandpa, tell them they did a great job

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Is that the granpda? Is him actually 85? Jeez, he looks at least 30 yeras younger.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (4 children)

Maybe you stop aging when you have such a project?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Well, if I recall correctly, keeping yourself active and having hobbies is a known factor affecting aging.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

The normal trick is to not drink or smoke, but...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Got it, rock collecting. That explains why childhood took so long

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Hopefully. I'll start collecting rocks ASAP.
