A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!

Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.

It ultimately comes down to durability. The sword is clearly cooler, but it will break one day. The perfect stone is forever.

Personal preference.

Except how long could I really restrain myself from trying to skip the stone off of the nearest body of water?

If you take a stick and I take a rock, soon I'll have both a stick and a rock.

What about paper?

The stick is superior, but the question is which one you take. Take the rock. Use the stick, then leave it in a conspicuous place for the next person to find and enjoy, to maximize the stick value.

Yeah, it's not even close. Has to be the stick.

Stick.

In a duel between 2 people, if both take the rock, both will be hit by rocks. If 1 person has the stick and the other has the rock, one person has a chance, however small, to deflect the rock and hit the unarmed assailant.

If both take the stick, get a camera.
