10-year-old me feels called out lol. But you know what? If your kid likes a stick that was free instead of wanting something that costs hundreds of dollars? Quit your bitching and just tell them it's a nice stick.
Not a boy or man, and I have a REALLY good stick I found in middle school, 26 years ago. And some other pretty good sticks to. Everyone loves a good stick

When the dog came up, I was expecting it to go “and the dog agreed it was a good stick”

Why do you think the dog was complicit with the distraction tactic

If your husband and son both agree it's a nice stick, I gotta side with them on this one.

Now the question is...
Is it a sword stick, a gun stick, or a magic staff stick?

Or a bow?

Or whatever it is I have?
spooksboots@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Perhaps it's a kung fu staff stick

Sticks are a dime a dozen, not of interest to anyone. A nice stick, now that's something special. You take that baby home.

I wouldn’t say she reached the level of “bitching’, just understandably quizzical. Aren’t you curious about things sometimes?
Minarble@aussie.zone · 36 pts · 2y
There is a very nice stick near the door that my son found. It’s a good stick.

I wouldn’t be suprised if recognizing a strong practical stick is ingrained in our evolved mind.

It's the primal lizard brain seeing it as a good weapon for defense or hunting. Put a sharpened rock on the end of the stick and now it's a spear!

Put 2 stones on it and it becomes a sword

Daughter has collected sticks since she could walk. They are all special and unique and can't possibly be disposed of.

One stick is good. Two sticks? Twice as good.

HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone · 11 pts · 2y
it's likely our wrists evolved to bend side-to-side because our ancestors fucking loved swinging sticks around so much.
Killing_Spark@feddit.de · 3 pts · 2y
Apparently we are also especially good at locking our wrists which enables us to precisely throw stuff. Probably a similar origin

If you want to understand the personality of your son, hand him a stick and then watch what his imagination transforms it into

Sticks can be fun for lots of reasons. If your son likes that stick, just let him have it imo.
