a lighter discussion :)

[jwer_NL]

007 and me where talking about our favorite subject and we came up with the question:

Would women (and men ) still like diamants if they costed fuck all?

I mean they like sparkling things but usually only when they're damn expensive

discuss!

Proberly not, just like gold.. Yes gold have som uses besides being expencive.. but if it wasn't it would be like any other matal

Diamonds could (is) usefull in alot of tools tough

gold costs less than a gram of hashish here in norway

they wouldnt like it... you see, normal people/n00bs dont see the difference between polished glass or diamonds.. but who the fuck likes polished glass?
If you give a woman a ring stating it has some expensive diamond on it, but its glass then you are a dead man if she finds out

Nobody would give a real shit about diamonds if they were a common good without exceptional value.
Women, men doesn't matter.

It's a status symbol.

Gucci diamond bracelet costs sometimes 5x more than a normal diamond bracelet, but ppl still buy Gucci one. Like Fin said, status and society

something is special -> people like it
something is common -> people dont bother

doesnt matter if its diamonds, gold or whatever

 

[Apoc]

I think it would be pretty easy to find exceptions to that statement

yeah.. like Pizza, its common as fuck but everyone likes it

 

[Ice]

compared to other food its special

well food is a bad example

 

[HUEY]

What about sex??

common as hell and EVERYONE likes it

 

[HUEY]

But as for diamonds..yeah ppl wear ém cause they are rare. Being rare means being expensive. I think people like to be seen with expensive stuff, just like driving a Rolls or Merc. or having your own jet airplane..like me

diamonds do have a really low critical angle of reflection making them look like they sparkle a lot.. so even if they were inexpensive it would still be cool to watch it sparkle
