rocks and a promise
I first thought to make entry categories after rocks and minerals, in keeping with the general geogeek tone. Then I thought that was silly and confusing. Now I think I like it again, but I could use some suggestions.
- So far (and these are all real rocks/minerals):
- hornblende - band/music stuff
- gneiss - links that are charming and don’t make me angry or frightened
- apatite - food and beverages
- garnet! - mild-mannered griping
- analbite - not-so-mild-mannered griping
- staurolite - astronomy and celebrity gossip
- adularia - fan letters, warm fuzzies
- andalusite - if you haven’t seen Un Chien Andalou, you really should. then you would understand why this category is for dreams.
- geode - honest-to-god geogeeky stuff
- angelite - random acts of charity
- banalsite - what i had for breakfast and other matters of pressing importance
- blende - miscellaneous
- blue vitriol - rants that I probably won’t care about in the morning
- blushing copper - the ones where i talk about my nipples
- brimstone - religion
- calamine - silly tests, the Friday Five and other itches you’ve just gotta scratch
- campylite - i love kitsch!
- coprolite - pure shite
- hiddenite - entries you’re not allowed to see
- jargon - the overly technical
- mimetite - street performance art
- perlite - CGI scripts, or programming/design issues generally
- sardonyx - heaps of scorn and mockery
- serpentine - snakes and other twisty things
- specularite - wild guesses
- tripolite - issues of etiquette
- tuff - what does not kill me will make me stronger
- ultralite - super-duper fluffy posts, and pedal-powered airplanes
- till - agriculture
…and of course I’ve got waay too many categories, some content overlap, and a few that are just there for sake of the pun. Pretty please, email me your favorite 5-10? Or any other categories that need rock names, or rock names that need categories, or just a big ol’ ball of derision if you think this idea is silly.
