Yes, I do remember using my rubber catapault to shoot at a girl that spread her legs wide apart, she let everybody see her laps and as a naughty boy I was then, I decided to correct and teach her a lesson the hard way, I bet she hasn't forgotten my lesson till date. undecided
I also remember using mosquitoe net to cover my eyes and I'll be like- Behold, the Turtle Ninja!!!
Then I'd find wooden stick and carve it into the shape of a sword, I would use it to hit anything and anybody I find, I'd claim I was the Red Power Ranger.

Catapult was a part of almost everyone's childhood I think. Either you used it or u were a victim!
Re: Did You Play Catapult With Rubber Band When You Were Young? by Infomizer(m): 4:42pm On Sep 13, 2013
I wanna do am die? I even improvised with a cut rubber band and held the paper bullet with my teeth instead (it fired whenever i released my grip on the bullet).I remember accidentaly firing on one of our children department teachers in church back then. I escaped detection tho. 'Gun' are the days mhen!

Mr Aboki: My nickname was Aboki D'Sniper a.k.a Soge King I wonder if anybody would get the meaning|Origin of Soge King... With my trade mark 'Copper wire bullets'.. grin

















I only stopped playing rubberband in SSS 1 when some Skinnies ambushed me and balsted the life out of me, injuring my eyes.. I had to be rushed to the hospital that day..

Upon my return, I retired and switched to playing 'nearest to the wall'..



Then Catapult.... grin

All I will say is that if every Boy child killed half as many Lizards with a catapult as I did, those things would be an endangered specie by now.. Killed so many lizrds that I learnt about a myth that says shooting a Lizard with a catapult cuts your catapult..
[/code] grin[code]
grin Chai! I no fit laugh! When I was young,I never spare any lizard that dare to venture within 10 metres radius at any part of our compound that I happen to be at a time. Them lizard really suffer. Rubber band was a companion. Catapult? A little.
