carrot and the stick

A way to describe enticement or promised rewards without satisfaction as a way to get to some useful point or solution.Derived from the use of a carrot on string supported by a stick tied to the neck which is hanging a few inches in front of horse, donkey or mule. This is a way to entice the animal forward. The animal never actually gets to eat the carrot.Implies that the animal, person or country is not too smart and ruled by base instincts or political expediency.Often used incorrectly to describe enticement (the carrot) from the front and threats from the rear (the stick, for beating). Usually in a political context

carrot stick
dumb high school (generally freshman) hoes with a severe case of anorexia and a fake orange rub-on tan. they are typically of the valley girl sort and are often extremely dumb and easy. practically breastless, too young, and generally unappealing, they partake in this ritual of (reputational) self mutilation every spring, before summer comes, and before homecoming and prom, so that their parents can be sure to remind them with photo evidence what carrot sticks their daughters used to be. the plainest sign of desperation for social acceptance, carrot sticks are iconic sources of laughter and hallway disruption as they struggle to contend with the fact that existence hates them.
Example:
the dude: why, my good friend jeremiah, look over to yonder girl passing the commons, doth she not looketh as if she were a carrot stick?

jeremiah: awh dayum nigga dat bitch done got that pumpkin face an carrot body and everythang, sheeet.


empty carrots-bag on a stick
Derisive term for a situation where a chronic moocher tries to temptingly persuade you to "just give him one very last loan" supposedly in order to enable him to accomplish whatever he needs to do in order to become able to finally pay you back all that he owes you --- and possibly a bit extra as a gratitude gesture --- in one lump sum. The idea is that he still does not even possess a real "carrot" --- i.e., any actual cold hard cash --- to offer you, but he is merely offering you the empty-talk promise of a "whole bag or carrots" --- i.e., a large one-time payment-amount that is far greater than any of the individual loans you have given him so far -- if you continue to bust your a** on his behalf. And of course, this assertion, too, is itself usually just another worthless promise, similar to all the other times when said handout-seeker has come bawling and blubbering to you for financial assistance in the past.
Example:
The local preacher tried to tell me that if I toil my butt off and live a life of strict propriety and chastity, **maybe** I will be given great rewards in Heaven. Sounds like a classic "empty carrots-bag on a stick" promise to me --- why should I suffer the agonies of an extra-hard and boring existence, especially when I am not even assured of any recognition or benefits for my efforts, anyway???
