At what point does a twig become a stick? Are all twigs also sticks?

I feel like the difference between twig and stick must be not intrinsic to the stick, but a property of the observer. To a bird, a twig is already a stick, and to a giant, that which we call a stick is surely nothing but a mere twig.

A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!

Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.
