Its not the size of the paddle, its how you swing it. TFM.

      It’s the kinetic energy of the paddle at impact that matters, not the force that causes it to move. So like that other guy said it’s better to swing a smaller paddle faster than a bigger one slower.

      You don’t seem to have a very good understanding of physics. Did they finally teach you that equation your senior year at LSU?

      Pain comes from a large kinetic energy being dissipated on a small area. Sting comes from dissipating energy quickly over a large area. This is why paddles have holes and should be just thick enough not to break or bend.

    It’s obviously a play on the saying “It’s not the size of the boat, but the motion of the ocean.” I find it funny, anyone else who fails to see the humor in this is dumb.

    Apparently none of you ever got hazed with a paddle. The huge paddles didn’t hurt very bad, it was the smaller ones that stung like a bitch.

    I didn’t even realize anything sexually related to a small penis until I read your comments. Perhaps YOU are the ones with a “small paddle”.

    I took two small paddles, and a big one. The two small ones that broke stung alot worse than the big one that didn’t.
