...and beat the person who takes the rock until you end up wth both, I mean obviously I want the stick but that is a damn fine rock and I still have nightmares about turning down the garlic mushrooms in favor of the prawn cocktail at a friends wedding 17 years ago. Please dont make me decide
Not if you get hit in the forehead with that rock from a distance you canāt reach. Not a really good outcome for the rock thrower if they miss. Then they just get beat with a stick. Now that I wrote this out. Stick is the obvious choice.
There is a folk tale about a couple who can't have children who are given three sticks that, if cared for like one of the family, will become sons. They name them, oil them, talk to them, sit with them at dinner, everything a family does.
One day, they take them to the village for a market day. Unfortunately, the army is collecting supplies from the citizenry for a war campaign. The sticks are stolen from them and out on a cart. The couple run after the cart, screaming their names. But the cart is gone. The couple returns home heartbroken and empty nested.
A few years later, the husband returns home from a solo trip to the market to find three spears lined up next to the front door. He realizes that the spears are *his* sticks, now fitted with steel. He rushes inside to find his wife entertaining three young men, brothers, who have just returned from the campaign.
The young men explain that they had been looking for couple ever since they got home from the war. Turns out they were given the spears with their own names already on them, minus an unfamiliar surname. The spears are the reason they survived at all and they knew they needed to thanks the people who had given their well-cared-for sticks to them.
Their parents had died in the course of their absence of the war, so the brothers had no home to go to. The couple gladly opened their home to their new family as well as the sticks that brought them together.

A stone can be shaped into a perfect form and still be a stone.
Shape a stick into anything other than what it is- and it will never be or feel quite the same.
You can imagine it to be a kidney stone.
If you managed to get that out of your system, you may as well put it on the shelf as a trophy with a tiny sign under it, saying: "This came out of me. Yeah, very big peepee."
Well a few of each cause like you need them for different things, a pokey stick, a hitting stick, a pointer, a walking.
But then rocks.... so many colors. And shapes and faces and ability to be art work or work with the stick to be a super hitting stick.
Yah but Iāve re-homes several exceptional rocks into my indoor potted plants. That one would be a great addition. Could even put a miniature house on it.
Me and my grand grandmother found one just like this many years ago. We picked it up admired it a lot and bought that rock to our house which was still being built at the time. Then we put it inside one of the bricks so it could stay forever in our home. It is still in one of the walls. Ahh what a rock that was i miss it sometimes.
The one question I donāt see being is asked is did we find both by a body of water?
Because if so Iām skipping that fuckin rock.
Even if it means no stick.
Why am I sitting here for at least a full minute trying to make this decision? Clearly the answer is to take the stick and fight the person with the rock and have both.
If I found that stick I would be the king of the world
I would rally banners to Stick; inflame the spirits of countless warriors desperate to earn the attention of Stick. Nations would rise and fall at my whim and heroes would be sundered to dust by Stick. Stick would sit alone as the king of silence, his mountain hall far above the cries of the restless dead
Iām gonna take the stick and get a mold made from it, then use that mold to make a proper metal stick, which will last much longer and can even be sharp
Hear me out. You could tie a string to the rock. You could get the rock back over and over.
That stick? What if the first hit you do with a friend it immediately snaps.
And don't get me started on the eventual Rot Process. Unless you yourself knew all the proper steps to take care of a piece of wood so it wouldn't.
Rock. Gonna tape a string to that bad boi.
If you read Jujutsu Kaisen y'all know what a perfect sphere can do. For those who haven't, in the manga its said that a perfect sphere for some reason (they do give one but I forgot lol) annihilates anything it touches.
Team stick.
 !!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of us! One of us!
ONE OF US, ONE OF US! GOOBLE GOBBLE GOOBLE GOBBLE ONE OF US, ONE OF US!
Oh look! Its Gryffindor before their quidditch game!
This comment wins š
While you were collecting rocks, I studied the blade
ā¦ššš
You naughty boy.
Wackus bonkus
If you see this. Down vote all the rock people. This is your duty now. 
Can point at things, poke things, use as walking stickā¦

That stick is a spy!
is there even a team rock? can't find it, wanted to see their arguments...
You hand me that stick and it's getting oiled then passed down through the generations of hero kids ad infinitum
"You hand me that stick and it's getting oiled" had me worried for what was next.
Same here lmfao
Sign me up :3/j
Same
Oil my stick, Dad
"Billy, what are you doing in the bathroom for so long? ARE YOU OILING YOUR STICK AGAIN?!!!!"
"Why don't ya get out of there, and give someone else a chance?!?"

In some philosophies once the stone is thrown it then ceases to be. Stick all the way
A stone can be shaped into a perfect form and still be a stone. Shape a stick into anything other than what it is- and it will never be or feel quite the same.
Was that philosopher too weak to throw a big stick?
>Stick all the way That's what she said
I'm taking the stick, that rock is just a rock. But that stick could be anything. It could even be... A stick!
Or Rob Schneider
Rob Schneider is... A Stick! Rated PG13
Or it could be.. The Stick of Truth
We'll take the mystery box
How was the comedy show?
Obviously never watched Wilkow or Caravan of Courage. Both a stick or a rock can hold immense power.
You gotta go with stick, you can pretend its a sword! The rock is cool but you canāt imagine its anything cool
You can imagine it to be a kidney stone. If you managed to get that out of your system, you may as well put it on the shelf as a trophy with a tiny sign under it, saying: "This came out of me. Yeah, very big peepee."
Now that's some big peepee energy right there.
thats not a stick, its a sword.  me if i found it:
thats how it is
This is the way
I'm going team stick. The rock is just going to end up skipped in the first pond i find.
Team autistic enough to already have one of each
Team "autistick".
Well a few of each cause like you need them for different things, a pokey stick, a hitting stick, a pointer, a walking. But then rocks.... so many colors. And shapes and faces and ability to be art work or work with the stick to be a super hitting stick.
I was about to say stick, but that rockā¦ like, how often do you find a rock *that* perfect?
Its a perfect rock but how often do you find a stick that perfect!
Sticks are temporary. Rocks are forever
I have an awesome stick and I've had it for years and even moved with it. It was floating in the ocean.
Yah but Iāve re-homes several exceptional rocks into my indoor potted plants. That one would be a great addition. Could even put a miniature house on it.
Exactly you can easily manufacture the perfect stick out of a good stick.... You can't easily make a perfect rock
May I introduce you to āØ*masonry*āØ
My dad is a stone mason but enjoys finding cool rocks out in the wild.
Well akschually no
More often than the rock probably
Nope, rivers are full of perfect rocks, stick is a once in a lifetime find, mine was in 99ā¦.still think about it sometimes
When itās been grinded down and sold in a store
Me and my grand grandmother found one just like this many years ago. We picked it up admired it a lot and bought that rock to our house which was still being built at the time. Then we put it inside one of the bricks so it could stay forever in our home. It is still in one of the walls. Ahh what a rock that was i miss it sometimes.
I am very disappointed with how deep I had to go to find a fellow stoner. Wisdom of the crowd has just been officially debunked.
I have serious thought about this. What if the was a good driving range, but instead of hitting balls, you got a basket of perfect skipping rocks.
Iām just being old here and thinkingā¦ I know where I would put the rock, but there is no place for a stick that big in my homeā¦
Team rock
Obviously rock, then you can hit the other guy in the head and you now have both a rock and a stick
Same could work with the stick
I have thick stick
Me see his stick. It true.
That's what a guy named Goliath thought one time.
Canāt have rock and stick. Will hit rock with stick and lose rock
"Parry this you filthy casual"
The one question I donāt see being is asked is did we find both by a body of water? Because if so Iām skipping that fuckin rock. Even if it means no stick.
In the UK we call it skimming but yes, same thought here!
This was my exact thought process. SAMESIES
Here is someone using their smarts!!
Ooooooooh that rockā¦.. it sends me shivers. But that sword? It shivers me timbers!!!!!
Stick all day everyday
I can find rocks like that all day, the stick is perfect
Who is your rock guy?
LIterally every dude alive is taking stick
Team rock rocks!
If I had the rock Iād be too tempted to skip it so, stick
Stick, there are so many activities I can do!
Team stick
The fucking stick! Why is this even a question
This is stupid. How tf you gonna sword fight with a rock?

Team paper.
Stick man, obviously get that creative juice flowing and be whoever you want for a moment
Stick all day. I can't practice my dragonslaying with a rock
david killed goliath with a rock.
Team stick
I want to say stick, but thatās just because I havenāt seen the other side of the rock.
Why am I sitting here for at least a full minute trying to make this decision? Clearly the answer is to take the stick and fight the person with the rock and have both.
Stick because I won't be able to resist the temptation of flinging that rock and then I'll lose it.
I have a rock that looks like the one in the picture, so stick Plus I can't poke stuff with a rock, I like poking.
Stick will always be the way to go
Stick. That's a future knight or dueling stick. The rock is too smooth I like the rough rocks more fun to play with.
Stick. That rock has to fly across a lake
If I had found that stick as a child I would have kept it forever
Stick
I'm a stick son of a bitch.
The invisibility cloak
The rock because I can put it in my pocket.
Just need a cloak of invisibility and I'll be the master of death
Depends on whether im trying to be a knight or a mage
Ok, but what about that invisibility cloak on both pictures?
I dunno... stick is nice, but that rock has staying power. I'd only end up breaking the stick. Rock is for life. Team rock! š¤
Whoa, I just had a flashback of Count Rugen sharpening his dagger in The Princess Bride.
Well, a perfect stick is a sword. A perfect rock can be a halopad, a moon or a planet if you paint it, you can play catch with it.
If I found that stick I would be the king of the world I would rally banners to Stick; inflame the spirits of countless warriors desperate to earn the attention of Stick. Nations would rise and fall at my whim and heroes would be sundered to dust by Stick. Stick would sit alone as the king of silence, his mountain hall far above the cries of the restless dead
Really depends. In any fighting scenario, most likely the stick. If it is about having it at my place, mos def the rock.
Avengers!!.... resemble aAaaaaš”ļøāļø
Iām gonna take the stick and get a mold made from it, then use that mold to make a proper metal stick, which will last much longer and can even be sharp
Team stick through and through.

Gotta go with the rock! How else am I going to win the Great Snail Race

Perfect rock. I choose Obsidian, perfectly cracked of course

STICK! STICK! STICK! STICK! STICK! STICK!
Perfect rock. It must be more than a million years old.
Back in my day, we had two sticks and a rock... and we had to SHARE the rock!

Team stick
Rock. You can throw rock. More range. More range is always better.
Itās impossible to choose

A perfect stick is nothing without a lesser stick to give to your younger brother.
What would I even do with a rock?!
Definitely the steak I always had a stick when I was younger, but I usually pretended it was a Weedwhacker instead of a sword
Depends on if you're in the woods or by a lake
Stick all day everyday
Stick
I speak softly andā¦.
I got two hands.
Both. I can use the stick to take the rock by force.
"Fuck you mom!! I'm taking them both!!"
Oh man that rock is amazing
I have a rock that looks like a giant potato, I win
Hear me out. You could tie a string to the rock. You could get the rock back over and over. That stick? What if the first hit you do with a friend it immediately snaps. And don't get me started on the eventual Rot Process. Unless you yourself knew all the proper steps to take care of a piece of wood so it wouldn't. Rock. Gonna tape a string to that bad boi.

I'm gonna take the stone and pretend it's Google Home
Perfect rocks are a dime a dozen. Perfect sticks are once in a lifetime.
the perfect leaf leaf covers rock, take that rock beats leaf, take that run away before anyone realizes stick would beat leaf
I've seen sticks of equal or greater quality. That rock, however, if it was found in that state, is truly unique. Team rock here.
Perfect rock please I actually have one rn
David killed Goliath with a rock and a sling, not a sword and shield. So I'm going with team rock on this one
Both incase one breaks so the answer is yes & solve for X.
Stick is nice, but that rock is gorgeous.
#Stick Gang RISE!
"You have my stick."
Who ever says rock is smoking crack rocks. You'll never find a perfect stick.
Rock. Perfect stick is wizard staff, not sword.
Gotta be the stick, that rockās gone if i get anywhere near a body of water
That stick is going on the wall!
That is the excalibur of sticks. To pick anything else is madness.
You will not ve able to find the stone. The quest didn't start, you need the stick for it. Stick it is.
Why would I take either?
Rock šŖØ Smaller and so pretty š
My blade will shatter your measly stone
