Diamonds are mercifully unchanged by their journey through a kimberlite tube. It's true, you still have to break them out of the rock, but it's better than swim

Diamonds are mercifully unchanged by their journey through a kimberlite tube. It's true, you still have to break them out of the rock, but it's better than swimming through mantle!
- grillvogel 10y agothey aren't literally diamonds that was just a metaphor. delicate memes don't always survive the journey to the surface
- M_Grey 10y agoI know what you meant, I was extending the metaphor. I would rather crack rocks for diamonds on the surface, than swim through shit below. I realize that's a preference issue, not a "right way / wrong way" issue for the record.
