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.

That is a branch, you illiterate barbarian!

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 44 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Plus, if it fell off the tree it would be a twig at best.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 13 points 4 weeks ago

Did you just attack its girth and imply it's too skinny? 😡

[–] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 weeks ago

A twig? Are you daft man? It's obviously a stick! LOOK at it!

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 48 points 4 weeks ago

Twig. NEXT!

[–] DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works 40 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Came here to say just that, yes.

[–] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 30 points 4 weeks ago

Excuse me, but it is TOTALLY WRONG to put a comma after the word "prove."

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 29 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

No, that is clearly a JPEG.

[–] Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

More of a GIF, though isn't it?

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

That's JIF, thank you very much.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 28 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

I disagree. I would classify this as more of a branch than a stick.

[–] spazzman6156@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 weeks ago

Nope. Twig.

[–] pebbles@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah unless the sides are cleaned up this is a branch.

I'm sorry, but that is actually a $150 table centerpiece from Pier 1 Imports. It adds a touch of natural feeling to your home decor.

This is a twig. Are twigs sticks? 🤔

Apparently not. Twigs are still attached to the tree and are also flexible. Sticks are detached and dry, so they are not flexible.

That means if a branch or twig falls off the tree, it isn't immediately a stick! It has to dry out a bit, and then it's a stick! God damn. We really have words to differentiate anything and everything. 😮

[–] juja@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

Actually, by virtue of it not being attached to the tree anymore after it has fallen, it no longer is a twig even if it hasn’t fully dried up yet. So until it has fully dried, it’s in a state where it’s both twig and stick. A twick if you will.

The picture needs a banana for scale.

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 14 points 4 weeks ago

Ceci n’est pas une stick.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 13 points 4 weeks ago

More of a twig, really.

[–] Marty_TF@lemmy.zip 11 points 4 weeks ago

sticky situation to be in when demanding conflict. best not to stick your nose into this sorta thing.

[–] 6nk06@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Too thin to be called a stick, it's a fucking stupid branch. DOWNVOTED!

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 4 points 4 weeks ago

It's a branch because it's not a single strand.

[–] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 10 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Steve@startrek.website 9 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

A Rorschach stick

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago

Well now, to the untrained eye it might appear to be an ordinary stick, but there are several factors one must consider.

[–] titter@lemmy.world 8 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] slackassassin@piefed.social 2 points 4 weeks ago

Hell ya, that stick rules.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 8 points 4 weeks ago

That is a wand of lightning.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 8 points 4 weeks ago

I'm not going to argue with you.

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

It's a limb, it has multiple branches.
