I was thinking of bigger cubes when I wrote that. I still use the same Zhanchi I got back in 2011.
What is the worst/most annoying thing in speed cubing?

When you're performing CFOP and non - cubers congratulate you on "completing 1 side" -.-

When you are in a shop or so and have a cube each and single person stares at you -_-

Roux is awesome, cause there is no 1 side until basically the very end, so they get really shocked when they see it suddenly finished.

When you are assembling big cubes and you keep picking up the wrong ****ing oblique...
Oh, let me count the ways...
How non-cubing people react to cubing:
"You just memorize a pattern and do that over and over"...uh, no
"Look he's already got a side"...it's not a side, it's 2 layers.
"Why'd you mess it up again? You were so close."(midsolve)...because just spam spinning the U layer doesn't solve it.
"Dude my brother(cousin, friend, etc.) can do that! They're really fast."
"Don't look!"(as they mix it)...okay. (turn around and amaze them when I solve it)
"What a waste of time"...
While cubing:
Cubie pops out mid solve.
Overspin/underspin mid-alg and screw up the solve.
Turn catching more than once on the same turn (cheap cube).
Those cases.
Doing CFOP F2L and none of the 2nd layer edges are in place, nor on the U layer.
Losing my cool when I solve = lot's of lock-ups = bad times
Learning to cube:
I'm too lazy to dedicate myself to the memorization of algs and methods, even though I am very avid in researching and understanding them. Therefore, I never get super-good, while at the same time, being very knowledgeable about being super-good.
Forgetting algs after memorizing them.
etc. etc. I love cubing!

when you buy a DIY cube that says comes with seperate stickers but when you get it, it was just an already stickered cube taken apart. -_- thanks HKnowstore....
also G perms and E perm, not hard just soooo slow

LOL also I hate it when stores call cubes a DIY when you only need to place on the stickers.

the cubicle does that, I don't mind that because at least you can take it apart and don't have to take off the stickers. I also hate when the core is pre-built

Thecubicle distinguishes between 'unstickered' and DIY cubes.

yes but it is in their DIY cubes section. I wasnt saying that they label them as DIY just that they have unstickered cubes under DIY.

Forgetting half of a PLL mid-solve and not being motivated a mouth to learn Roux and F2L....
Oh, and when cubes pop and non-cuber tell me toget a life and when they break my cubes. I also dislike parities... A lot.

The fact WCA has foot solving. It's disgusting and it makes speedcubing look unhygienic. It's really very embarrassing.
Oh yeah, and doing a T perm and then accidentally finishing it wih the moves of a J perm.

3Levas3 what does feet solving have to do with Magic?

I don't like feet solving, but only because I think it looks silly. I also don't mind if other people are into it. It doesn't embarrass or bother me at all.
Also, your hands have tons more germs than your feet. Unless you have a foot fungus or something, there's nothing unhygienic about using your feet.

He was saying he also disagrees with some of the WCA's decisions on which events to have.
