One time I used some rocks to decorate myself. It wasn't by choice, I just got into a motorcycle accident and as a result I had to pick rocks out of my insides.

Depending on what rock. Rocks are also minerals and contain lots of elements and compounds for us to use. For example, jewels can form in rocks or iron ore can be mined from rocks. Rocks can also be grounded up to extract the rare elements from them. Simple uses of rocks would be paperweight and decorative purposes.
