The untold story: 1.) the grade was curved due to everyone’s low numbers
2.) no one wanted to get near the rocks to identify them because there was one weird mofo walking on all fours around the displays, randomly snarling and licking each one
Homeslice identified a few more than everybody else and his grade shot to the moon.
As someone who does LSD whenever she can (Which is… sadly not as often as you’d think)
This doesn’t surprise me
I figured you’d only really be able to buy it in bulk on the dark web.
Or just go to a festival
Until very recently festivals were a major source of LSD distribution in the U.S.
Not so much regular attendees buying 10 strips but people who know each other meeting up at various festivals to exchange larger quantities of dry, crystal LSD. I don’t know how much it’s changed in the last decade or so, probably not that much.
Are you telling me they put them in front of actual rocks and let them lick them in finals?
Im sure it’s required. I got a geology buddy and he said this is pretty normal for identification of rocks. So I bet its a required skill to tell spicy rocks from rocky rocks.
Fact
“That’s how I got the nickname ‘the Doc Ellis of geology’”
I was going to comment that Doc Ellis would be proud.
Plot twist: Wasn’t a Geology major, there was no test.
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
Oh hi Wendy did you know this is a crunch Santa Cecilia granite benchtop? crunch crunch
Why does this Venetian Pearl taste like blood?
yes please, hold it right there
In order for licking the rocks to help on the test, he must have already tasted them before.
Reminded me of the high geologist post
That’s a very high quality post, I appreciate you sharing it
I feel dumb, I don’t get the ace bit. Was it just slang, like he’s cool, and then they swerved it? Or was there something that actually made the commentary think they were asexual in the image? Now I feel dumb and old.
Geode colouring matched Ace Flag colouring.
Ahhh, OK, I see it now, thanks very much.
I couldn’t do it, I’d be worried everyone could tell I was high. Tbf tho, no one called him out for licking rocks… sooooo idk. I’d just hate to be remembered as the rock licking guy
Accepted behavior among geologists
I took a geology course in college. The raw giddiness the professor hit on seeing a very bland gray rock still makes me laugh thinking about it. Dude was starstruck by a large grey lump. I’m sure it was a very excellent rock, but I can’t recall now what made it so amazing. Something about glaciers.
I think he would have gladly licked the rock if he thought no one was looking.
I 100% believe the above.
I concur
I knew someone who went to his german language classes on LSD and I couldn’t think of a worse clsss to do that in.
Imagine being perfectly fluent in German, but only when gorked out your damn orb.
So German?
It sounds like something I’d expect of a CIA expirement gone wrong.
Typical Geology major.
Definitely read this as his test was about lsd, was mighty confused until i scrolled back up and read it 3 more times
You think you’ve got the stones to become a geologist?
Red dwarf learning drugs are real!
