People have found some excellent sticks and want to tell you about them, quite sincerely.

Read Official Stick Reviews (at TikTok).

Just a random example so you'll get the idea and see how charming this is:

More than you could shake a stick at.

Better than a stick in the eye?

I found a very nice walking stick at a trailhead last year.

Tiktok them spelunking so they can stick it where the sun don't shine.

Bosco the Stick-collecting Dachshund was the best. I miss him. Should check to see if his vids are still up . . .

Narr said...

Some of them are.

OTOH Blogger is being a shithead again on the thread about stow-ries (as my black lady coworkers called their soaps).

I was expecting that dogs would be involved somehow. Jonah Goldberg has referred to "dog economics" regarding sticks as a positional good.
"... “dog economics” are dominated by positional goods. At the dog park, there’s essentially an infinite supply of sticks. But the dogs all chase the dog with one specific stick, because that’s the stick everyone wants. "

"🎵Yeah, you want my stick
Thunk your coconut with my stick
Look at my stick (Mm-hmm)
You gon' feel the wrath of my stick
Fear my stick!
My stick, my stick
My stick is better than bacon
Mmm-ah-ha-ha-hmmm
You can't touch my stick
But it's just a stick!
Mmm-ah-ha-ha-hmmm
It's my perfect stick
My stick is my friend born from a log
Everyone can see it's better than bacon"🎵

Dogs are people too.

And why do you take note of the splinter in your brother's eye, but take no note of the excellent stick which is in your eye?

I. AM. NOT. CLICKING. TIK. TOK. LINKS.

Even to primo sticks and I'm sure you haven't even linked the dude who found the gun stick and when his girlfriend couldn't figure out why he was jumping up and down over a stupid stick left him at the beach and he had to get an Uber home and so he ghosted her.

From my collection of Dad Jokes (stored in a Dad-a-base):
What is brown and sticky?

A stick.

Walking staffs can be useful. I prefer American hornbeam( Iron wood) Very strong and light. Also can be used as a defensive weapon.

traditionalguy said...

Do I sense a penis envy vibe here? Well maybe not. The uses of a good walking stick are numerous the older one gets.

And then there is Rods. A good rod shows good authority.

I'm coming in on this a day late, as usual. So probably no one will read this, but...I just finished a walk listening to a podcast on the walk. And the pod was Elon Musk talking at the All-In Summit. So...after listening to the brain of Elon Musk, and the ideas for dragging humanity, kicking and screaming, into the future, I came back and clicked into Althouse to see a bevy of modern day people proudly showing off their sticks.

And I think to myself: Elon's task is going to be far greater than he realizes.

There were hundreds of those on my property after the tornado this summer. They'll be fireplace kindling in a couple months.
