How can I fix my Ruby/Rails local environment

I somehow messed up my rails installation before so I need help re-installing it/fixing it. Here are the errors. 

gem install rails -v 4.1.1

Ok so I fixed it by uninstalling rvm

rvm implode

This will remove the rvm/ directory and all the rubies built within it. In order to remove the final trace of rvm, you need to remove the rvm gem, too:

gem uninstall rvm

This seems like another case of RVM problems with a global install, no? How about installing under your home directory?

https://rvm.io/rvm/install (see "Single-User Install Location: ~/.rvm/")

Also, something to consider:
