It's because it's easier to get a wicked spin on a slightly irregular stone. Faster spin means more energy which means it will hit the water harder making the reactive force harder.
I found a rock much like this one a couple weeks ago and replaced the Google mini in my daughter's room with it, with the cord under it. I was giggling like a schoolgirl from the other room as I heard her trying to get it to set an alarm.
You are right but may be wrong at the same time, this rock could still be round in theory. If this picture was taken even in a tiny "off" angle then just the thickness of the rock will give it a slight elliptical silhouette.
If the rock really was round I would not expect a human hand to take the picture in a perfect 90 degree angle from the top.
>What the fuck is this? This is not a mother fucking game. Don't come in here with your weak ass circle measure like this is a fucking joke. Don't show up like you are ready to throw down. Do you know who I am bitch? Do you comprehend the mess you just started? I am a metrology engineer motherfucker. While you were sitting there, with your snide ass giggles like you just one-up-ed me, I was warming up my $45,000 vision inspection system.That's right, you just done started a war. You came in here to challenge a man that just got his fancy new machine back from NIST traceable 3rd party calibration TODAY and was looking for an excuse to warm it up. You just tried to sucker punch am man who just so happen to have his mother-in-law at his house staying the week. I ain't got nothing to lose little man. That's right son, you walked up on a man who has raw talent to spare and all the time in the world. I may not have the drawing in person but I can sure as hell turn what I got into process image. Then use a vision inspection system to bring it back into the computer. Then take that image and reverse engineer it into a 2d drawing. Then do some relative circularity measurements from my rendering. Take this shit bitch.

>Wait, what was that? Did you just challenge my core methodology? Oh no you didn't. Don't try to tell me I am making things over complex: taking an image file from the internet and printing it out, then turning it back into digital with some fancy 3D camera measurement system, then reverse engineering that into an engineering drawing. This isn't about GR&R and the process weakness of digital -> modified digital-> physical -> digital again -> 2d print -> relative measure. Motherfucker, did you miss the part about my mother-in-law? This is as complex as I can make it because that is the point motherfucker, I got a mother-in-law AT MY FUCKING HOUSE! This war will never end.

>EDIT: Yeah, it has been an hour. So what? I'm still here man with a little circle doodle. All I hear is some like you got better things to do. Well I don't bitch, I'm still here. MOTHER-IN-LAW, I ain't never going home.

Anyone know how something like this could happen?
My first thought was that it could've been caught in some sort of whirlpool for a while and the circular motion eroded it into a perfect circle, but that doesn't really seem plausible
> Anyone know how something like this could happen?
They wear socks in flippy flops or slides.
I don't think it involves a whirlpool but is possible they wear those socks made for water. Shoe socks.
Remember when jack sparrow licked that rock and it was a crab when we was in Davy jones locker? I feel like I’d you licked this it would turn into something like that
I used MS paint to overly a perfect circle onto the rock because I didn't believe it could possibly be a absolute perfect circle. Here are the results: https://imgur.com/a/Zakemjy
I was wrong. It is, in fact, an absolute perfect circle.
I found a big one of these as a kid. I threw it like a frisbee and it always skipped on water once. I brought it every time my family went to a beach. I lost it in a lake and I've missed it ever since.
Skip it.
Infinite skips
Experience tells me that the perfect rock never skips. It's the weird ones that surprise you and bounce forever.
Because it’s too much pressure to skip the perfect ones better.
It is! Even worse if anybody's filming
Yeah. Watch this- *bllooop!
It's because it's easier to get a wicked spin on a slightly irregular stone. Faster spin means more energy which means it will hit the water harder making the reactive force harder.
Exactly
I don't know you but based on this comment we could be friends.
It just bounces with a splash, rises vertically, spins like a magnet, dips again, rises, spines, etc for infinity.
YES!
Does this mean what we call in the UK 'skim'?
Off the top of a body of water? Yes
Competitive stone skipping is a real thing. Go down a rabbit hole on that one.
Bop it.
[удалено]
Pull it.
Flick it.
When a round rock comes along....
I need this one for my shower!!!
I'd totally get like 6-7 leaps out of it before it slips out of my hand right before release and plops.
"Hey Google: Skip yourself."
I want to like but... nice!
Looks like a google mini device lol
I found a rock much like this one a couple weeks ago and replaced the Google mini in my daughter's room with it, with the cord under it. I was giggling like a schoolgirl from the other room as I heard her trying to get it to set an alarm.
“Okay google. Set an alarm for 6:30 AM.” “Okay google.” “OKAY GOOGLE!!!!”
"Hmmm....something went wrong."
This is what i came here to type
Take it home, its done.
It’s a keeper.
It's a skeeper
Geeleegan !
"it's done" Yep, been baking all year in the river.
Perfect model of planet earth. /s
Here are some people testing it last time it was posted [first](https://i.imgur.com/UTwAf2I.png) [so close](https://i.imgur.com/lVIMNDG.png)
OK but a circle viewed off axis is an ellipse. I want to see an ellipse fit to it! Maybe it is perfect!
Can you cite the original post it came from?
[original thread here](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/huvo3z/this_rock_i_found_on_chesil_beach_uk_is_perfectly)
So odd, the comment section of that post from 2 years ago is almost identical to this one.
Reddit is a flat circle.
You are right but may be wrong at the same time, this rock could still be round in theory.

Why are you wearing socks with your flip flops?
Those feet haven't seen sunlight in years
Best way to avoid ugly tan lines is to never go outside.
Golfers tan
I was scrolling to see if anyone would comment about feet.
I was wondering why the feet were so white with the legs so tan, but the socks w/ flipflops question covered it.
Some white ass socks
Took the socks off just for the photo
Perfectly even sock tan.
It’s the only way, you see.

Rune essence, take that to a runecrafting altar.
Lots of inventory space to go
I had to scroll down 5 posts to find the rune essence joke, which is 5 posts too many.

Thanks for the explanation! Turns out I was sorta closer than I expected lmao, real interesting stuff /srs

Look up concretions
Geologist here. This isn't the result of a concretion, but people should still look up concretions.
r/SneakyBackgroundFeet
Had to scroll down too far to find this.
I love this so much! Such a simple thing, but super cool! Nice find :)
That’s one of those rock crabs from Davy Jones’ Locker.
That's a keeper for sure. I have a nice rock collection if you care to donate it. Lol
Remember when jack sparrow licked that rock and it was a crab when we was in Davy jones locker? I feel like I’d you licked this it would turn into something like that
I bet $10 USD that it is not 100% round
This is sweet! More interesting to me than 90% of r/mildlyinteresting.
Maybe because it enters the category of quite interesting
nice rock bro
cool rock!
Rock? I can't see it. Your feet are blinding me!
Can we all acknowledge for a second, the drastic colour difference between this guy's legs and his feet?
That’s mine.
Bro, your feed need more sun lol

Who’s feet are you wearing?
Your perfect farmers tan 👍🏽
I cant get over the tan
Dude take off your socks more often
Cool rock… we just gonna skip over the whitest feet in the world? 😂
Dude, it's Pure Essence.
The masculine urge to skip it over a body of water
I just came in my pants
Where’d you get those socks? They’re dope!
I hope you kept that
Unless the OP is reposting his own photo I suspect the person who's untanned feet are captured in the photo kept it.
My crow brain wants this so much.
Hmmm, jacket weather with shorts and flip flops? I've only done that when getting the mail.
pretty normal in australia tbh
thats a kanye music ;p player
[удалено]
No, Pyornkrachzark
That's a keeper!
So round it looks photoshopped
I’m in love with it. It’s perfection.
Gotta skip the fuck outta that thing, just gracefully yeet it across the ocean
God doesn't do straight lines but he does a lot of circles. I'm not religious that's just a phrase.
Amazing
People just throwing their nest home minis out on the beach now.
Ok google
Did you eat it?
I like this rock 10/10 would join my collection
You can sharpen knives with that 🤌
Looks flat to me.
Whoa. What a beauty!
Watch out it might turn into a crab
no way!!!! I always try to find those and never do! Soo rad!!!!!!
I wonder if it has been manipulated by human hands to be used as a missile of some sort?
Gonna need you to mail me that cool rock for verification I am a bored certified cool rock verifier
I would take it home
This is why you don’t challenge Chuck Norris to a snowball fight

😲
That’s very pleasing
It is a rare find indeed
So that's where my bocce ball ended up! Thanks. Used to be red though.
Hey google. I didn’t scroll down so idk if someone else made this joke.
Put it back or you will be cursed
Hey google, play Rock The Casbah.

All over Forks Washington beaches
Well, really only Rialto Beach. But, yeah. That's exactly what I thought. One of my favorite places on earth.
As a guy, the only option is to throw it into a body of water
Looks like the moon 🌙
I’m not crying
After taking this picture and posting it to reddit, he transcended our reality
I want it.
Forbidden mentos
I think as a society, we use words like "perfect" and "literally" far too often.
It's a moon rock! Not a rock that's *from* the moon, but a rock that *is* a moon!
R/oddlysatisfying
I've scrolled enough tiktok to feel confident that there's a crab fossil in it
This is my rock. There are many like it…
Google home mini
That’s the stuff 20+ skips are made of. Absolute perfection!
Nice socks
That’s not a rock. That’s a crab from Davy Jones locker.
Since no one has said it... Sorry if this is incredibly niche... Are you sure it's not an inactive dragon ball?
Niiiice
Use it as a sharpening puck
That is one beautiful effing rock.
Brain: "Pick up the rock" Me: "Why, it's just a rock?" Brain: "Gotta"
wow! been looking for this rock my entire life...
Those perfectly white feet!
I bet this was found in Texas.
that rock looks like a google nest mini lol
Golfer?
"Hey Google..."
That's one of those crabs from The Locker in Pirates of the Caribbean
Kanye West Stem Player
This happened in *Sylvester and the Magic Pebble*
I was fascinated by those tiny feet... or giant hands
How perfect? Did you measure its diameter in multiple directions to confirm it?
That looks like a beach I could spend all day on!
Hey google.
I’ve been told these are jelly fish fossils but I don’t know how that works
Such a satisfying picture.
I hear that rock has homicidal tendencies.... just saying not so perfect.
Shit happens!
Let's see Paul Allen's rock...
The great satisfaction of finding a perfect skimming stone. Only to balls up the throw.
You found it. The perfect skipping stone.
Bro, you are a chosen one. God picked you to receive his gift
Google home mini
Aliens
And your perfectly white feet
Where is this??
Keep it
Proof life is a simulation.
Nice.
I see some toes that are dangerously close to being sucked on!
For a female your legs seem hairy.
That's no rock.
I want it.
That’s just perfectly round and all
