Both, clearly.

And, if you don't like it, you can try to take them back, but I warn you, I have a stick and a rock.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago

i am going to stick with my rock choice, although i confess that stick rocks

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

I can stick the rock in my pocket but can't rock the stick in it.

Okay but can you imbue the stick with rune energy? Didn't think so

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You can carve runes into stick

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The rock in this photo looks like the rune essence from runescape, which you can take to altars to turn into runes

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

O shit ok I get it now

[–] infinitevalence@discuss.online 16 points 3 days ago

I mean, thats a sick rock, but that stick is just too good to pass up. Team Stick.

[–] Mr_Fish@lemmy.nz 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That rock is amazing but I can't turn down a stick that has you charging the English lines in the Scottish highlands like that claymore

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

Nah I'm still taking the rune essence

I hear either one can be used to break bones, so there's really no wrong answer.

I feel like I'd have more fun with the stick, though. Carrying around a rock just feels like carrying around extra weight. Carrying around a stick can feel like carrying a sword, can help with walking on hikes, can be used to point out things in the distance, can be a makeshift flag staff, or a barrier if you need to block someone or something. Then if it breaks, it can still be used as kindling in a fire.

So yeah, I'll say Team Stick.

The stick is clearly superior, but an S-tier stick is also more common.

Perfect rock. You can shape a stick, but a rock is pretty much gonna stay how you found it

How do you think headstones come to be?

[–] Toneswirly@beehaw.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We're talking about going on a hike and finding cool rocks and sticks, not machining.

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

OK, but banging rocks together to chip pieces away until you have a useful shape is also a thing. There's an entire era named for using that technique extensively.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

Username checks out

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Perfect rocks are easier to find than perfect sticks, so I'll take stick

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Kiki all the way!

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Team rock, sticks are awkward to keep around long-term but rocks can sit on my desk indefinitely

[–] kubofhromoslav@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

the moment when you realize that stick is a part of tree corpse 😯😬

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I take the stick and use it to rob the guy with the rock.

Perfect Rock lives forever, Perfect Stick is Soon-to-Be Dirt.

[–] 666dollarfootlong@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I'll take the rock and get into woodworking so I can make a nice little stand for it
