[ariasamie]

me and my brother's lol conversation after 6 months of not seeing each other:
(he is 28, I'm18)
Me: I have started a faster method and now I can solve it in like 30 seconds
him: so why don't you solve it in 10 seconds? let me scramble it. *he scrambles it 5 with moves*
me: it's not scrambled!
him: i don't know how to scramble it. maybe i can learn it from you!
me: :O
....
me:I am going to learn how to solve it blindfolded in the next week.
him: how the hell are you going to solve a cube blindfolded when you don't even know how it is scrambled?
me: :fp I look at it and memorize it first.

"I once randomly twisted it and solved it"


"How do you solve it?"
Then some wise guys says "There's a pattern, you just turn it a certain way until it becomes correct"

"How do you turn it so fast?"

"Of course, you're Asian."

If it was that easy, then I wouldn't be cubing.

Me: Hey check out my 2x2
Them: Oh that's so easy let me see *plays with it for about ten minutes* I give up

I was cubing on a train and there was a lady sitting in the seat behind mine who was reading a newspaper. After a while she came up to be and said "Hey umm, that thing is kinda loud, is it possible for you to turn it off?

why do you copy & paste other people's quotes?

That is not fp in any way. Don't be an ass man.

*He thought you were fast, why you steezin*

Haha yeah... for most people, just being able to solve it period should earn you the title of "rubix master".

 

[Cubenovice]

In a 1981 Dutch book "called the Hungarian Cube" the author considers you a master if you could solve it within 2 (perhaps it was even 3...) minutes.

It's hard to even get sup-3 minutes with a method as long as you don't screw up.

 

[Monarch]

Well, I'm sure many of us took over 3 minutes our first couple of solves

 

[Samania]

My mom saw VO on the news and she said "wow, so many Asians"

 

[Rpotts]

My first timed solve was 2:20, with LBL + 4LLL. I had started learning around a week before but had just really finished memorizing the algs.

@Gollum - I was just asking cause I live near KC and thought you might be close. Oh well.

 

[The Puzzler]

People try to threaten my by saying
"You better---------------- or ill take your rubikses away."

What the heck is a rubikses?

 

[zapper99]

They think that it has 54 stickers and each of them moves including the centers

A cube does have 54 stickers, and each sticker moves including the centers.

The stickers don't technically move they stick to the cubies and they move
