Two images of a man holding a stick that look like a large hammer. The caption reads "We can all quit. This guy found the stick of all sticks."

Might as well use a whole tree.

Possessing that would have immediately declared you the King or Queen of the Playground when I was a kid. Nobody would have even thought to contest your rule.

Nah, it looks great but it's totally unwieldly and may in fact be dry-rotted out and may shatter if you actually try to use it to hammer the ground to send that imaginary Earth Shockwave towards your enemies. That would be pretty embarassing.

Intelligence is knowing it will bring you power. Wisdom is knowing that it's far too light to be effective.

Except for a couple of envious kids trying to steal it

And they would have suffered its wraith!

Thanks!

I wish the forums software would recognize links to other instances and add the correct reference (kind of like how it links to the original comment next to the poster's name.

If a serpent and an old woman asks for the stick give it to the woman.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

If an Old Man with 12 canaries asks for the stick, just give it to him. Don't talk to the canaries.

The old woman is Thor in disguise and the serpent is his mortal enemy.

I hear Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song.

I honestly have never played Skyrim but I feel like I have to. I just can't find time between playing Nintendo, watching Youtube, and browsing Lemmy! And ignoring the constantly mounting pile of neglected paperwork.

I feel more jealousy than when I found my wife in my best friend's bed.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Which were you more jealous of?

[–] alejandra@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

The search is officially over. Every kid's dream has finally been realized in one photo. That is a legendary find!

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

He did it, he found the Warhammer Fourty Thousand.

same comment from last time:

wow, pre-fused to a Hinox Horn!

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Assuming the photographer was his wife, can you imagine the conversation explaining why you need multiple pictures with a stick?

"You just wouldn't understand how important this moment is!"

[–] verdi@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 1 points 1 week ago

Stick with a golden name eh

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

He who can pull the sword from the stone shall be king, just as is written I shall obey.
