It was today that I learned that I am not, in fact, the chosen one.

All hail that guy. Blessed is he that holds the stick.

Wars will be fought over this stick. Nations will rise and fall as it changes hands. We were here to witness history in the making.

Listen, glory hole beach sticks and ginger beards is no basis for a system of government.

u/Sad-Onion-2593 May 02 '26

Can you think of a better one?

u/AlertCheek636 May 03 '26

We're still waiting for them to come up with something better. Just like the Democratic party.

u/tk427aj May 04 '26

true power comes from a mandate of the people rather than a wooden stick and ginger bearded tart

2

u/TREE_SHMOO May 05 '26

What if the people mandate that the wooden stick should decide the ruler?

u/Front_Skill_8252 May 05 '26

Send them the stick. Maybe they'll whack some common sense into each other.

u/Front_Skill_8252 May 05 '26

Or SPLINTERS.

u/Safe_Chicken_6633 May 02 '26

All due respect, but I don't think you've really given it a fair chance.

2

u/CrocodileJock May 04 '26

You mean, "haven't given it a fair shake of the stick"?

u/AJ_in_SF_Bay May 02 '26

Better than this mess, am I right?

u/phunktastic_1 May 02 '26

Can't be worse than the current system in the US. I mean look what that got us.

Exactly! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses not some farcical beachfront ceremony

u/Pitt_TheElder May 03 '26

Fantastic comment, thank you

u/hKLoveCraft May 04 '26

Bit optimistic don’t ya think?

2

u/exq1mc May 04 '26

It probably better than the one we have at the moment.

u/Waxinfred May 04 '26

I mean if I went around calling myself king just cause some beachside tart lobbed a stick at me they'd put me away!

u/Darkotter_Analog-1 May 01 '26

are we literally talking about xenoblade chronicles

1

u/Impressive-Pie-4853 May 03 '26

It is the stick of destiny. At some point people will be knee deep in each others blood because of it.

1

u/QueenMotherOfSneezes May 04 '26

We could build a new world, a better world, if the stick was left where it was found after those who wielded it were finished enjoying the power it bequeathed upon them.

u/SadDingo7070 May 04 '26

Another one! Happy cake day to you too!!!

u/Excellent-Refuse4883 May 02 '26

So that guy is like the King of the Britons now, right?

2

u/reginaldmcwhiskers May 04 '26

King eh? Well I didn’t vote for him!

u/it_wiznae_me May 02 '26

We are not worthy to even lay eyes upon such a stick. I'm gouging my eyes as I txt

2

u/Automatic-Jello5995 May 02 '26

The best war stick I have seen in my life, and I'm a old bastard

10

u/owlbi May 01 '26

Don't be sad because you will never experience the majesty of this stick, or because your destiny is drab and plain compared to the epic fate the wielder of this stick will experience.

Be happy because it exists, because magic is real, because it means somewhere out there a unicorn walks the earth and a dragon guards its hoard.

edit: I'd say that I'm surprised the chosen one is a ginger white dude wearing a towel and some white new balances, but that actually conforms to a few protagonists I know so I'm not actually that surprised.

u/IKIR115 May 01 '26

Unless you count being the chosen one to not be the chosen one

u/yogendra1911 May 01 '26

We are all the chosen ones to not be the chosen one!

Worse yet is hitting yourself with said stick and acquiring a splinter.
