Neither, enjoy them there but when you leave they are for the forest to keep

Agreed. But look at that stick. Perfectly balanced with cross guard.
That stick won’t last very long in the forest.
The rock, put it back and no one will find it for centuries. Maybe it’s fair to take it so others can see it and appreciate its beauty.
Once you got the stick, ain't nobody gonna tell you that you can't take the rock too.
Exactly. Raise the stick over your head and scream: I HAVE THE POWER!
What if they throw the rock at your head, knock you out, and take your stick?
Swing batter.
Sticks are temporary, but rocks are forever

Akshually thats factually untrue 🤓
Stick. No question. No hesitation. That's a damn good stick.
Rock for sure. That thing would make me happy every time I see it for years. The stick is neat but I'm probably just gonna break it by accident.
Oh no. I distract my wife and take them both?
Is there any other option? There’s no way to just leave one of those behind. It is just unthinkable.
It’s ok. I’ll distract your wife.
I want the stick, but I know the rock is all around more practical.
I’d argue stick is more practical. You’re already outdoors, stick gives you walking aid, brush clearing, spider web first defense, potential weapon. Even non perfect rocks are useful but a great stick is mikes ahead of a wonky one.
The rock would make a better weapon than that stick.
Press X to doubt.
Stone has one use as a thrown weapon, and you must have accuracy. It could be used as a blunt instrument but that requires very close proximity.
Alternatively you can sharpen the stick, and have a length to keep things at bay.
The stick seems less of a win. Its big and cumbersome once it outlives its usefulness or it breaks. The rock can provide longer but smaller returns, and can outlive your ancestry if taken care of.
I understand that this is a hypothetical scenario. So please, educate me on how taking a rock vs a stick being "practical" isn't a wild argument...
Honestly, people might judge me for carrying a stick out of the woods, a rock can get stuffed in my pocket. The stick will eventually lose its charm and just be in the way. The rock is small and can be forgotten and not be in the way.
I would never judge you for that. You are a rock person, and I think that's awesome.
Stick.
Stick can go "swoosh" when you swing it.
I'll take the stick and use it to make you give me the rock.
Stick, I'm better at swinging than I am at throwing.
Stick, I love swords
EZ. Stick.
Bruh the rock is coming regardless. The only question is whether you have room for the stick too
If you don't have room for the stick inside the house, leave it next to the back door
I've already got a perfect stick so I'd go with the rock. If I did not have my perfect stick though, rough choice. That's a damn fine stick
Rock. Look at it.
Rock. Then I use it to crack the skull of the dude who took the stick and now I have both.
The rock of course. Why would you want a stick that has the thin proportions of a sword? A thin, lightweight sword only works because of the sharp blade. A "perfect" stick would be more of a straight pole, or have a heavier end for bludgeoning.
I already have a pretty perfect rock. But a perfect stick is a rare find. I think I'll take another rock
If there is a body of water nearby then rock, otherwise stick. Getting a perfect skipping rock for the perfect throw is a rare and beautiful thing
Depends on where the rock is from or what kind of wood.
I have a perfectly round rock. Some of those bouncy balls as well. I confused one for the others, I thought it'd bounce but it broke a tile.
I'll take both . Thanks
See I thought the stick was the obvious choice but now I'm drunk and that rock looks so good
Stick. I can make a perfect rock.
The rock of course, what kind of stupid question is this.
