    Stick every time. Stick is a sword, a walking tool, a measure, a prybar. Rock is rock. You can throw it. You can hit stuff with it. That’s about it.

      Rock is good. You can cook with rock, support and balance things, keep it as a pet, paint faces on it, wedge things that need wedging, use it as a paperweight, possibly shatter it into many knifey bits or sell it to your kid cousin as a magic rock. I think you can also do a few things with ropes and rocks, but I can’t remember any of those things. Yes, you can throw rock, but rock likes most to bounce on water when thrown.

        Heating pad. Counterweight on bear bag. Massage tool. Circle template. Door stop. Wheel chuck. Pothole filler. Sculpture source. GI Joe mountain. The list goes on.

      You can admire the rock. You can just hold the rock, meditate over its roundness. The rock can become your friend, your little secret, a comfort you can take anywhere. The rock is eternal. If you cradle it for a lifetime, you might contribute a miniscule amount to its perfect shape. Your life can have meaning.

    I’d take the stick, but when my enjoyment of the stick inevitably ends when it falls apart I’d think back to that sweet rock.

    I take the Rock! It’s much more durable than the stick and I bet it is really pleasant to hold. Also I can easily place it on my desk after I come home.

    And I like to imagine how long it took for this rock to get his shape.

      I imagine it got its shape by doing plenty of push ups, pull ups and drinking lots of juice.

    Rock. Stick will rot quickly, but the rock will stick around as long as I don’t lose it

        Honestly, it’s so perfect I’d probably choke and get 2 skips out of it. Anytime I stop and select a good stone I overthink it and throw terribly, anytime I just grab one and toss it I get 4 or 5 skips (6 if no one’s around to see it).

          Nothing worse than getting that perfect angle to slice through the water and it just goes “Blop” and it’s gone.

        Why the hell are cargo pants so maligned in even the everyday casual fashion world? They’re fucking awesome.

          Girls think we are hoarding the good pockets. They don’t realize it’s actually Big Handbag that got rid of their pocketses

            Seriously! I hardly ever carry a handbag because it’s more likely than not that I’ll eventually lose it. Losing my pants is a lot less common, and there’s so much room for stuff! Wallet, keys, phone, knife, dog treats, cool rocks, maybe a snake. The possibilities are endless!

    sticks are everywhere, that rock tho, you skip that 6 times into a sunset and the genie that lives inside that rock will grant you a wish.

    The rock, (a) because it’ll last longer and (b) because it’s got a cool wrestler named after it. There ain’t no wrestler called The Stick. I doubt I could smell what The Stick is cooking.

    I’ll combine them on a workbench to make a stick with stone duct taped to it. With that done, the world is my oyster.
