In all its hangingoutitude!
This article is about the pseudocharacter that serves as a hangout spot. For the wiki's community portal, see HRWiki:The Stick.

The Stick, whose name includes an integral article, is a largish stick poking out of the ground (or perhaps a prematurely dead tree) in an otherwise nondescript field.

It is typically referenced as a meeting point, especially by Strong Bad and his cohorts; they've 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 and Homestar both express hatred for The Stick in Jibblies 2 (though it may have just been because of its Halloween costume). The Stick participates in other festivities as well, such as being a Decemberween tree or being placed on a snowman.

Fun Facts

  • According to origins, The Stick presently rates a 10 in hangingoutitude, but was considerably lower in hangingoutitude during the period it was the site of Homestar Runner's bread sing-alongs. It was also the place where the On Point Kings spray-painted Marzipan, then glued her to Homsar and left them for dead.
  • In labor day, Strong Bad accidentally breaks part of The Stick off while giving it a high-five — the piece that broke off was never seen before that particular toon, and hasn't been seen since.
  • In army, when Homestar gives his troops a pep-talk by The Stick, The Cheat mysteriously pops out from the side of The Stick, though the viewer previously had no idea he was there.
  • In Happy Hallow-day, The Stick is referred to as a twig by Marzipan.
  • In Jibblies 2, Strong Bad and Homestar both inexplicably state their hatred of The Stick to it.
  • In Homestar Ruiner, Strong Bad calls the Stick "beautiful".
  • In imaginary, a younger The Stick is seen sporting a single green leaf.
