Are you a leftie (You solve OH Right handed) ?
No, I usually solve OH with my left hand, but I wanted to see if I could do it while playing, so I had to use my right.

im not addicting to it. I can tell because i dont like solving things that take too long. If i was addicted, i would do it even if it caused me distress
People lose interest in cubing because they force themselves to become good at [insert method here] i think cubing is a hobby, not something you should kill yourself over. Losing the fun of cubing is not worth learning a fast way to solve it.

How fast is "fast"? Also, while speedcubing is a hobby, it is my belief that the point of it is to get faster. So, if one person focuses more on improving than another, is the faster one doomed to end up quitting? Are you suggesting that we limit ourselves to X time to keep ourselves interested?

Well, if there is a cube lying around while I'm supposed to be reading papers for finals (hey just like right now), I'll probably do like, 20 solves until I realize, "Wait, I have finals. I should be studying".
But if I'm in a session, I can stop whenever I want. I'm only addicted when I'm procrastinating.

Getting faster does not necessarily mean getting to world-class level at all costs. Some cubers really focus on improving, and have fun doing it, fine for them. Some others just don't care about that and only want to enjoy solving their cubes and to improve at their own pace, and trying to force them into mimicking the first ones will just ruin the fun for them and make them quit.

Just like most people here, I cube when I have time, and that's getting more and more in this time of the year....
But I do also take my cube to places where I know I'll get bored after a while

I brought a cube to Jury Duty and got selected as a jury member. It was in my hands during the entire trial, although I did my best to avoid twisting it.

Cubing in class is like that-it's almost like going past the 'moment of no-return' point. It's hard. That's why you can't even bring it, it's too temptuous.
I'm pretty addicted, I can stop if I don't have any cubes and I'm not near a computer for Java-based cubes.

I was once asked:
"When are you going to grow out of that cube phase?"
