did you kill an ogre with it?

Never bring a stick to a sword fight.
I’m relatively sure that there’s a human instinct buried deep down in us that tells us that long sticks are /good/. That holding them in our hand like a tool is good. Factor in usual childhood fascination with swordfights, and you’ve got an almost elemental pleasure using both our more complex thought patterns and our base instincts.
Man I love pretend swords.
I dunno, ps238, the native cultures of the Philliines brought sticks to a sword and gun fight with Magellan, and they came out ahead.
Well, That Guy, what you had there was under 50 people on Magellan’s side, and a Zerg Rush of over a thousand guys on the native side.
Even if Magellan’s forces had access to automatic weapons, they probably wouldn’t have come out on top.

Oh snap!

It’s too bad there aren’t enough trashcans with metal lids anymore so you could also have a shield.
Oh God I cannot agree enough with this post.
Hells yeah.
And anyday you can sword fight with another person, it’s an awesome day.
This is why you should get a twitter account – stuff like this is not /really/ worthy of a whole blog post but definitely needs to be shared with the world.
As long as you fight the urge to twitter every single, mundane thing you do it’s a pretty useful communication device.
