Like, I'm not one to assign meaning to commodity ownership but, for serious, can you think of any other utilitarian object that is anywhere near as cool? I sure can't. I mean there is even a rock tumbler brand called Doctor Cool. If that's not cool I don't even know what is. Have you ever met someone with rock tumbler before? Cool dudes each and every one. So what are some other objects that make you cool?

Owning a slick performance vehicle from the 1960s that languishes in your driveway for an eternity is a pretty cool guy ownable.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
We need the outlet for our rock tumbler.

Rock tumblers are cool but the little bags of rocks you can buy to tumble aren't very cool. Like I'm sitting here not knowing what the gently caress to put in my rock tumbler and then mr. marketing man tells me exactly what rocks to tumble and how many. Pathetic. Find your own drat rocks to have their inner beauty revealed man, be free!

I will probably lick whatever you put in front of me.
I'm not even sure what a rock tumbler does. It's either a jeep like vehicle for driving on rocks or a cement mixer contraption that breaks up rocks. Pretty cool I guess? Informative OPs are even more cool

Obviously if you have to ask you're not cool enough to know.

I own two rock tumblers, one of which is probably 60 or 70+ years old which I inherited from my great aunt.

Rock tumblers are loud and can take days to satisfactorily tumble a rock.

What you need is a cabbing machine

Smoothens a rock in no time, perfect for today's salaryman or salaryma'am on the go!

Meters are extremely good. If you divide a meter by ten you'll get maybe ten centimetres.

If your divide for example ten inches you'll get about four Benjamins.

Those are expensive though, you can get a rock tumbler for like 20 dollars.

My parents in the Christmas of ‘93 got me a Sega genesis. They got me my sister a rock tumbler. After she read the directions an found it would take 2 weeks to do anything, she threw it though a window. It was awesome.

This thread got me thinking about doing some rock tumbling, it seems like it could be very zen to look for rocks and then make them pretty.

But then I got to wondering, what the gently caress am I supposed to do with a bunch of shiny round rocks when I'm done?

Here's the results of my research into what people do with tumbled rocks:


You can put them in a jar to hold flowers.


You can put them in a jar to hold makeup brushes.


you can put them in a jar to hold candles.


You can put them in a jar.

As you can see, there's are so many uses I'd be a fool to not start filling my house up with rocks!

I bought a rock tumbler a few years ago and only used it once because it was really loud. I don’t know where it is now.
