When you find an appropriately sized length of something, do you invariably spend a few minutes pretending it’s a sword?

1. Definitely!

2. Samurai sword.

   And you have to make the sheathing-the-sword move like Belushi. Waggle those eyebrows, dammit.

3. A Lightsaber

4. I am writing something on games. I wondered if a young person or young at heart person could ever pick up a stick and not use it is a gun, a wand or flourish it as sword.

5. Extension of my penis.

6. Yes. every boy does from a young age.

7. God damned right I do

8. Every motherfucking time.

9. Yeah

10. Well obviously yes. It’s the law.

11. Absolutely. It’s getting a couple test swings at least.

12. Without fail. Or if it’s too big. Or if it’s too small. Almost everything that is longer than wide and i can swing it, gets swung like a sword

13. More of a baseball bat situation for me

14. “They will answer to the king of Gondor. Anduril, the Flame of the West, forged from the shards of Narsil. Sauron will not have forgotten the Sword of Elendil.”

15. Yes!

16. Let me put it this way, there’s not a long umbrella I’ve touched that hasn’t been swung around like I’m a secret sword master.

17. Not lately…… though I think its cause I took up fencing and have actual swords in reach. Every time I feel like “oooh sword” I can go grab one of mine and actually wield a (sparing) sword.

18. Nay.

    I find another reasonably sized object and inform the lads that I challenge them to a duel at dawn. Sticks will be swung, flashlights will be lightsabers, and a bunch of interconnect white-board markers will be shattered!
