Bands of Rubber

The Maltz has been thinking about rubber bands recently... and more specifically, the decline of their place in society. While not a rubber band expert, the only place I can think of where they can be found these days is wrapped around a local newspaper or on a teenager with braces. As a kid, there were always rubbber bands around, it was part of the "back to school" must have list: pens, pencils, notebooks, erasers, white out, rubber bands, etc.

I remember making giant balls out of rubber bands and I remember shooting them at people too. The latter always prompted a "it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye" response. It must be tough to be a rubber band making company these days. It must be tougher to be a rubber band factory worker.

What would happen if a rubber band factory worker and a glue factory worker guy got in a fight, would the rubber band factory worker say, "I'm rubber, you're glue..."?
