    Although I must admit that Professor Chad is unfortunately a tenured professor here at Shadiversity, what he has said about me is blatant slander and his views do NOT represent any official position of Shadiversity. He is a sexist bigot that we have been trying to fire for years. I condemn, denounce, and do NOT endorse anything he says, especially about individuals, but he might have a point about sticks.

    There’s more.
    When a person is slain, what happens next? Which river must they traverse to reach the afterlife?
    The Styx.

    Having said that, let's not forget the criticism of one bear to the other, when the first called a gun a "thunderstick": "Thunderstick? That, my friend, is a Winchester 30.06 repeating rifle!"

Sticks must and will stick around.

    This was enlightening.
    Among other realisations I can now see the fundamental shortcoming of contemporary real-time 3d graphics. For there are rendering engines that model a world build from triangles, and there are rendering engines that model a world build from cubes, but the fundamental component of any realistic simulation should be sticks. And not only in rigging for character animations. We will have simulations that are indistinguishable from reality once we have a mathematical model of the physics and the optics of sticks and someone writes a game engine that fundamentally implements nothing but those two things.
    Have you noticed that there is no general stick emoji. There are many stick emoji, yes,
    🏑🍡🍭🍢🕹️✏️🪡🗡️🚀🕯️🔋⛳
    But there is none that represents the general concept of a stick. Why? Because it is so fundamental that it is impossible to represent it without representing anything more specific. The most basic characters that represent sticks («I», «1», «-») all have specific meanings assigned to them.

    11:50 "All of human history has been recorded by the mighty stick", this claim has many truths on it.
    When mankind first started to invent writting they started by using sticks to draw on the ground/sand. When humans started carving their words and monuments in rocks they did so using sharp sticks. Later, when papyrus and paper started being, the writting was done using long and thing sticks.
    Human history started with the use of sticks as tools and weapons.
