Me and my brother are both speed skaters and we have 4-digit helmet numbers that we wear when we race. One time I had a solve that was the same as my number, and then less than 20 solves later I got my brother's number!
Weird cubing occurences?

Something amazing happened omg:
So like 3-4 years ago I was trying to recall all the WRs.
I remember Pryzmelaw Kaleta had OH avg Wr at that time.
But I thought his name was Piotr Pladewski
a week or so ago, I watched a cube roll video in which a cuber called Piotr Padlewski was mentioned
I'm pretty sure that I had never heard of his name 3-4 years ago(even though he has held 4 WRs)
how can you explain this...

I don't know. But I can tell you that until recently I thought that Juan Pablo Huanqi and Gianfranco Huanqi are the same person. At least that explains why I was always so confused about his first name.

Both times I have noticed the move sequence F2 L twice in a scramble, I got a CMLL skip in that solve.

Patrick Ponce told Luigi on his sub 7 singles vid never to end his cross with a B2.
Today I did a solve, and its cross ended with a B2
The time was 9.11

This scramble was looking kinda bad and i had planned a meh cross. I thought it'd be cool if i would end up with an xcross and that's exactly what happened!

I totally wish that was a thing. Just think of the possibilities for FMC "hey cuble home whats the best insertion for the ab5c case" "the best insertion for that ab5c case is"

I recently got an almost last layer skip on 4x4, I just got double parity, very disappointing.

I just got 5 F-perms in a row.
Not only that, but for the first one, the bar was on the left, and I did a U U U2 to recognize it. After doing that, I thought to myself how that's a really bad habit, and it's the only PLL+AUF combination I do that for (probably because there are no immediately obvious blocks from that angle). As I was scrambling for my next solve, I thought I should make a point to not do that in the future. I realized how hard that would be to implement due to the rarity of such a specific case, and how once I reach PLL I usually let instincts take over anyway and have little control over the situation. I therefore lazily decided to not really care and hope this bad habit wouldn't take that much away from my future times. On the next solve, I coincidentally got an F-perm from that angle and recognized it well (mainly because I could tell from OLL that there would be a bar there), so I successfully avoided the U4 even after deciding not to care. Next solve, I got the same exact case, and again somehow avoided the U4. I started thinking that the universe was trying to tell me that this was my chance to properly do away with this habit. As I started my fourth solve, I started to think about the serious possibility of getting another F-perm. I reached OLL (F sexy F'), and realized that since it wasn't a cross case in which I would do COLL, there was a serious chance of it happening again. I got too caught up in these thoughts that I let my instincts take over during PLL, when I found my fingers not being able to fight the urge to do a U, then another U, and finally a U2. It was a fourth F-perm, from the same exact angle, and I had done it wrong. I disappointedly scrambled my cube, did another solve, and this time an F-perm showed up with the bar on the right, as if it were mocking me.
Next solve was COLL into a U-perm.

This was a while ago, but I once did a PLL-training session on csTimer where I didn't get a single E-perm until the 72nd solve, and then I got 3 of them in a row anybody know what the chances are of that happening?
anybody know what the chances are of that happening?

.00029%.
E perm is 1 in 36 occurrence. 71 in a row without is (35/36)^71. 3 in a row is (1/36)^3. Multiply together. .0000029 or .00029%.

have you ever been in a situation where you're wondering about something and then the answer pops right in front of you?
i was wondering whether other people had a problem with their MF3RS2's core stripping and then immediately saw this thread: https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/threads/homemade-ylm-m-vs-mf3rs2-m.71204/#post-1315229

Your computer must have gained sentience and read your mind to present you with that thread.
