The most annoying things non-Cubers do

[-Cube Kid-]

What are the most annoying things that non-cubers do? (In your opinion.)

The thing that happens to me ALL THE TIME is that they scramble it for 15 minutes, cause they think that "The more you turn it, the harder it is to solve."

Twist the corner when scrambling

Solve the daisy

YES!!! It's really not that hard to do a cross on the bottom!

Twist the corner when scrambling

Ugh, that is very annoying.

When people as me if they can try to solve it, they put all the white pieces on top like you're supposed to, but they don't match at all. Like orange/green/white corner is next to red/white edge and blue/orange/white corner. They then ask, "did I do it?" And when I try to explain, they don't seem to understand that ALL the colors have to line up.

This happens so often that I have just memorized the possible layouts for PLL, and if it doesn't match any, I twist the messed up corner back.

My sister once tried to twist a corner on a 5x5 and she corner twists my cubes sometimes

Can you even twist the corner on a 5x5?

 

[CuBart13]

Yes but there is a big chance of it breaking

 

[cranberryjuice]

Yes but there is a big chance of it breaking

It would be pretty difficult, right?

Yeah. It kinda makes sense.

Noooo! Not on the 5x5!!!! UGH, this will break the stalk!!!

One time my dad said I kept mixing up the cube halfway into the solve (algorithms) and said that it’s a problem that I need to fix

Like bro 🫩

 

[SpeedCubingLord]

destroy my cubes

you guys dont know the pain ive been through

 

[Caleb Valenzuela]

my cousin likes to twist the corners of my cubes (like every single time we meet)
another annoying thing though and it’s actually cubes that do it: handling my cube aggressively until one time it pops

It is so annoying to explain that you can't just 'try' it and you have to use a proper method

You can also tell if the corner is twisted easily in OLL as well

I don't know OLL or PLL, I just meant I know if it's twisted after the alg I use for OLL.
