LPT: Silicone rings are superior in every way if you use your hands at all for anything. I have never taken mine off. Meanwhile I just fidgeted all day with the fancy one. So uncomfortable.
Plus the good ones go for like $20. The cheap ones are like $8 for pack of 5.
De Beers has spent a lot of money to make them not the first thing you think about.
I tried silicone rings and didn’t like the feeling. I just put the ring on a carabiner when I work and put it back on when done.
Never thought of a carabineer. I've seen them as necklaces. I liked mine as a necklace.
The good thing of the carabiner is you can take it on/off much faster is of you forgot to remove it it’s just a few seconds instead of fumbling with a necklace.
It's a tricky word to spell, I do need to write that word from time to time, and I always have to consult a source to get it right
carabiner
I have a handful of silicone rings and I hate them all.
I do a lot of work with my hands and silicone rings are the only ones I can wear at work. But it's the first thing I take off when I get home.
They just don't slide the same.
Uh slide? When you take it on and off?
Yeah, or twist.
I play with my ring a lot. It's my default fidget. Silicone has too much gription to be fun to fiddle with.
Ah yes gription... My griptonite
Too much sticktivity really
