Deku nuts or Gernades? (advantages and disadvantages)

[TriforceofEternity]

In Theory:  Which is better for Shiek or Link (since he is the only Male Shikean I know) if he had to live thru Civial unrest in our own Country?   Deku nuts or Gernades?    This is not a what's better thread but more of the advantages and disadvantages               

From time to time I've just been curious to the usefullnees of a deku nut in a modern day setting.

and Deku Nuts:    http://zeldawiki.org/Deku_Nuts   This is nuts.

Shiek isn't a dude, dude.

Deku Nuts I image are better in that they also don't seem to hurt the weilder, but they also seem more like flash bangs not Grenades.

Look I tried very hard to make a discussion thread so please don't start a flame okay?   I have a right to be curious.     I am sorry if this thread bothers people but if you don't like it don't read.  kay?     

   Flames will NOT be tolerated.

I think Deku Nuts would be more useful. They are a lot easier to hide, since they're just nuts. Grenades would be confiscated immediately.
Besides, if you get hungry, you can eat the nuts!

I go for the Deku Nuts. You can give them more uses than a grenade.

Wasn't it just a nitpick though?

Looks more like a correction to me...Unless a post was deleted that I missed...?? He's talking about what Keb said, right?

Deku Nuts FTW.

Posts that contribute nothing FTF (From The FAIL).

Well, excuse me for offering my opinion on the topic.

What you offered wasn't much of an opinion...It basically came down to as much contribution as selecting a poll option.

*curious eyebrow raised*

Shouldn't that have made it obvious what could have been done instead?

What? You want someone to make a poll because you can't control your urge to make a nothing post?

From the fail? Wait does FTW mean "From the win" then...weird I alway read it as "Fuck the what?"

[teaflower]

Oh, no, edit wars!

Um... I have absolutely no opinion on the matter. But I would say that a grenade sounds fun. I mean, come on! You throw it and it goes BOOM! Although, reading that page on Deku Balls, they seem fun, too.

I love that description of them. It's... interesting.

'FTW' means 'For the win'.

[V_Translanka]

I used to read it like that too!

Deku Nuts are like flashbangs. Throw one, it bursts, blinding the enemy. They were used in both Zelda 64 games. (OoT and MM)

EDIT: @Tea: Crap, I lost the link to your download site for the story. A friend of mine wants to read it.

[teaflower]

It should be in your messages. But if it's not, I'll send it again.

Flash bombs are always fun, but so is making things explode.

Just e-mail it to me.

I assume the deku nut you have to throw right at the enemy where the Gernade can effect people from a distance and some give tear gas which deku nuts cannot.   

I never thought of it before but your right.   Deku nuts can be hidden more easily cause they look like nuts and I don't think they will set off metal detecters.

(After the EMP attack Triforce goes to a security check-point in the Oregon/Washington Border and has his car searched)   

Officer:   "Anything illegal?"   

Triforce:  "I have the right to remain silent:"

Officer:  "I'll just do a quick search of your car then.  (Officer does a quick glance in the car but sees nothing wrong)   Those nuts sure look yummy  You can pass on thru...........NEXT!!!!!!"   (V translanka's old Ford Pickup drives up)
