Cubicle Warfare: How To Make A Desktop Viking Catapult

By Eric Monday March 31, 2008

We all have them. Coworkers who drive us crazy. What better way to get back at them, then sit in your cube, and ominously build a weapon of mass (cubicle) destruction?

Make your neighbor suffer your wrath using this handy how-to on making a desktop viking catapult. Launch paperclips, thumbtacks, pencils, whatever. Revenge and justice will be yours. Inspired by Boy Scout lashings (knots, not actual beatings, geez) and the books of William Gurstelle.

Needless to say, I’ll be hard at work on one of these during my lunch breaks, planning an all out attack on a certain someone from Slashfood.

I’ve had people as young as 7 making these, and others using six-foot staves instead of the bamboo.

Thanks for featuring it.

About this Blog

What's it mean to be a geek? Wikipedia defines a geek as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly intellectual" and describes "one with low social skills, regardless of intelligence." Geekadelphia is a bunch of geeks blogging (and drawing) about all-that-is-geek in the City of Brotherly Love and beyond. We don't claim to be peculiar, odd, overly intellectual, lacking in social skills, hermits, hackers, or neophiliacs. We don't call everyone "n00bs" or "pwn" people on a daily basis. We've never watched Beauty & The Geek or Beat The Geeks when they were on television, though we did enjoy Freaks & Geeks. Who didn't? We do, however, claim to love video games, computers, pointless-inventions, high budget over-the-top action movies, useless gadgets, comic books, South Park, WoW, Family Guy, Star Wars, and consequently, episodes of South Park and Family Guy that make fun of WoW and Star Wars. Our goal? To talk about geeky things that interest us and highlight events, stores, and people in Philadelphia who, like us, are geeky. Welcome to Geekadelphia. Enjoy your stay... n00b.
