'''The Stick''', usually called '''the stick''', is the place in an otherwise nondescript [[The Field|grassy area]] in which a largeish stick is poking out of the ground. It's typically referenced as a meeting point, especially by [[Strong Bad]] and his minions. It is unclear as to whether it is just a stick in the ground, or a prematurely dead tree. Sometimes The Stick participates in the festivities, such as being a Decemberween Tree, being dressed up for Halloween, or even being placed on a snowman.

'''The Stick''', whose name includes an [[integral article]], is the place in an otherwise nondescript [[The Field|grassy area]] in which a largish stick is poking out of the ground.

Nonetheless, for reasons that are unclear, Strong Bad expresses hatred for The Stick and its "stupid face" in [[Jibblies 2]] (though it may have just been because of the costume). In [[Strong Badia the Free]], The Stick briefly became a minor [[Countries in Strong Badia the Free|country]] known as Sticktenstein. In [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]], it plays the last surviving specimen of the Stickanee Tree, whose flower is needed for a formula to save the rainforest. Later, Strong Bad as [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] has to cut off a piece of The Stick so that he can get another flower for [[Sultry Buttons]].

In all its hangingoutitude!
This article is about the Pseudocharacter. For the wiki's community portal, see HRWiki:The Stick.

The Stick, whose name includes an integral article, is the place in an otherwise nondescript grassy area in which a largish stick is poking out of the ground. It is typically referenced as a meeting point, especially by Strong Bad and his cohorts. It is unclear as to whether it is just a stick in the ground, or a prematurely dead tree. Sometimes, The Stick participates in the festivities, such as being a Decemberween tree, being dressed up for Halloween, or even being placed on a snowman. Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat have considered it an excellent place to hang out ever since they drove Homestar Runner and his Bread Sing-Alongs away from the area, as related in origins. Nonetheless, for reasons that are unclear, Strong Bad expresses hatred for The Stick and its "stupid face" in Jibblies 2 (though it may have just been because of the costume). In Strong Badia the Free, The Stick briefly became a minor country known as Sticktenstein. In Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective, it plays the last surviving specimen of the Stickanee Tree, whose flower is needed for a formula to save the rainforest. Later, Strong Bad as Dangeresque has to cut off a piece of The Stick so that he can get another flower for Sultry Buttons.
