Found this post on IG and I’m wondering what this community’s stance is. With winter now officially here*, I think it’s a valid question.

Edit: *where I live

    I’d say an icicle defines as a stick. A stick does not need to be wooden (like a stick of dynamite).

      the “stick of dynamite” argument really gums up the works here. i reckon it’s under the larger stick-umbrella, but still doesn’t meet the criteria of JUST “a stick”. think like, a capital-S-stick in the same way christians refer to capital-G-god.

      an icicle is the “other minor deity” of sticks.
