A gem (also called a gemstone, fine gem, jewel, precious stone, or (((semi-precious stone))) is a piece of mineral which is made in a cut and polished form, it is used to make jewelry and other adornments. Due to their hardness, gems have adopted a variety of other uses. However, certain rocks (such as lapis lazuli, jade, obsidian, and opal) and occasionally organic materials that are not minerals are also used for jewelry due to their beauty and are therefore often considered to be gems as well. Most gems have low malleability and high brittleness, but some soft minerals are used in jewelry because of their luster or other physical properties that have aesthetic value. Its artificial rarity is another aspect that lends much value to a gem and gives the ownership of gems status. Of course, the supply of gems in the world is limited.
In 'jakking culture, the term "gem" is used in regard to particularly high quality soyjaks, and is the complete opposite of "coal". Gem-worthy 'jaks are to be commended for their value and merit. It also has a gender flag associated with it.
Gems and coal have correlation, contrary to popular belief. Most of the time, gems are shown with a human made picture of a big shiny blue diamond. Diamonds are made of carbon and are created by extreme heat and pressure over a long period of time. The fact that coal too is mostly made of carbon implies that even coal can become gem under specific conditions, hard work and long time, and let's not forget that the true quality and beauty of a gem is shown only after they are CUT and POLISHED.
Etymology[edit | edit source]
The usage of "gem" by soyposters can be dated back to an old [s4s] meme consisting of showing support to good threads by replying with the phrase "bumping this gem". This particular phrase was extensively spammed on soyjak threads when the first large wave of soyposting immigrants came to /qa/ around spring of 2020, and the phrase slowly evolved into just "gem" around autumn of 2020. Soyposters adopted the word "gem" to describe funny, high-quality posts.

Despite this, many 'teens consider Cobson to be a gemerald.
You can add "-erald" to any noun to indicate that something is extreme in that regard. For example, gegeralds are gems that make you geg, margeralds are gems that confuse you, etc.

This variant of gem kills everything coal of lower, which will give the Jannies a purpose in moderating the Sharty and keeps shitty 'sites like the J*RTY and 4C*CK dying and malding.
