That rock is so smooth and circular. I can't not pick it. I'm drawn to it.

It is….precious…to me

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.

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.

Stick. Rock = 1 throw. Stick = many whacks. Stick better.

[–] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

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

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Stick will rot, rock will stick.

Not perfect but I like it.

Stick. There is a 100% I will lose that stone skipping it on the first body of water I see.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Could you imagine the skips that rock would make!

Simplest answer: both. That what you have pockets for

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

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

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.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

I wanna say rock like everyone else but that stick just looks so good

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago (8 children)

I'm going rock so I can charge my phone.

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.

Stickalibur. You are now the one true king of a small wooded area.

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

The Stick trained Daredevil.

I was going to say definitely the rock, then I saw the stick. Now it's a toss-up.

[–] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Rock, that one is one in a million.

Stick. Rock is just heavy thing you carry and maybe throw once. Stick, you can swing that puppy around all fucking day.

[–] wildcardology@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago
[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.one 10 points 2 years ago

I got the stick, my kid gets the rock. She’s a rock person.

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I suppose it would depend on the task I was trying to accomplish

I'm not greedy but I want a dataset of how it correlates with gender and sexuality of responders. The working hypothesis is very promising. I want it raw 𓁹‿𓁹

Rock is easier to store and I have too much bullshit already.

But you could be fire.

Nah man, that rock is straight 🔥

[–] Yokozuna@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

The geologist in me says rocc but the kid in me stays sticc

I'm taking the perfect rock, finding an imperfect stick, and making a near perfect club.

[–] Windshear@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago

You can also try to convince stick to be fire.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Can you take both, is there a rule on taking both

The wording is a bit open to ambiguity
