Women love diamonds for their wide range of industrial applications.

Mostly because they dont get scratched. Theyre pretty neat. Not blood diamonds though, those are a crime against humanity.

I got us bare tungsten carbide bands. If “Diamonds are forever”, then tungsten carbide is 9.5/10ths of forever, and it’s the whole band instead of just a small easily-detachable part of it. More practically, it won’t get beat to hell like the white gold ring from my first marriage. Plus, if I ever need a really strong connector for jury-rigging something, I’m now carrying one with me at all times!

Tc won’t scratch, but it is brittle though.

So are diamonds, but hey - don’t pollute my symbol with your facts! As far as romance is concerned, hardness == durability, end of story :P
