It’s not you, it’s me.
I just can’t hold still.
Tripod is SO not an option with point and shoot digi, man.
The whole point of these little cameras is to minimize bulk. right?
Well, just for you:
here’s some of my favorite lightweight point and shoot tripod options.

Like, $9 saves your camera from the delicate balancing act you endure with random stationary objects trying to get that perfect shot.
Make any bottle a tripod!
Or if you prefer, you can build your own Bottle Cap Tripod.

Joby GP2-E1EN Gorillapod Flexible Tripod for Digital SLR Cameras
At a pricey $40 you might want to stick to your double-sided tape methods, but this thing is SO durable, once you try it you’ll be hooked for life.
It literally will hold on to anything. anything. and it just looks so damn cool.
My favorite of the bunch.

I can’t even find my point and shoot right now.
It’s somewhere. If I had a nice lightweight case for it I bet it would be easier to find.
Or easier to not accidentally leave sitting somewhere. This case/tripod combo isn’t going to get you the best still action but it’s so simple and easy.
Kind of why you use a little point and shoot in the first place, no?
