Could someone point me in the right direction if you would not answer
me? =)

If you installed rubygem with some sore of package management system, it
probably provides for an uninstall capability. If not, here is one way
to remove it.
Find out where ruby installs its libraries. If you don’t know where
your libraries are located, you can execute the following command:
Change into the /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8 directory. In
there
you should find the following files that belong to rubygems:
gemconfigure.rb
rubygems.rb
ubygems.rb
You should also see the directory “rubygems”
Remove these files and the directory with the following commands:
cd /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8
rm -r gemconfigure.rb rubygems.rb ubygems.rb rubygems
In order to remove all the gems on your computer, remove the gems
directory under /usr/local/lib/ruby with the following command:
rm -r /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems
If your ruby libraries are installed somewhere other than /usr/local/
lib/ruby,
make the appropriate changes to the above commands.
