I wish I knew geology, everything is just granite to me.

The geology game “Minecraft” is a good entry to the topic.

Well at least you don’t take it for granite

We were allowed to use hydrochloric acid to help differentiate rocks that one time we had geology as a subject in geography class. Maybe that helps finding out the difference here?

The ol’ switcheroo, eh?
Like some sort of meme narrative/expectation parkour!

Fuck off. You can’t just say things like that without telling the class what the difference is.

You are right, my bad. :) One is granite and the other one is granodiorite.

“granodiorite” sounds exactly the kind of name someone who doesn’t want to admit it’s just granite would make up.

Good ol’ grannies (granodiorite). They’re important and diagnostic 'round these parts. Migrated down from Canadia we reckon.
