i can do that in a second, watch this! *turns one side 90 degrees, turns back* ha! see.

scramble, give, now say "now try"

 

[FakeMMAP]

scramble, give, now say "now try"

don't even bother scrambling it lol, just do 3 moves and they'll be confused as hell.

also, this year this thread will turn 10 years old. Feel old yet?

this kid (we'll call him BOI) at my school follows me and my friends at recess, and talks about cubing (but BOI isn't a cuber). BOI brings up that "some people use olive oil to speed up the cube" but luckily he knew it ruined the plastic. I told him they made special lube for it and BOI could not remember the word lube. So later he called it "speed oil" and i tried not to laugh. Then i pulled my friend aside and said "BOI just called it speed oil." We laughed way too hard for like 2 minutes.

Once a noncuber said to me that he could solve a Rubik's cube. Then i gave him a scrambled cube. He started to do R and U moves and said "After i do this several times, the cube will be solved"

Yay! Just got my MoYu Weilong GTS3M!!!

Remember to oil it with just the best speed oil™, only produced by Kumato Cubes. You can see a picture of it here, and buy it here.

Isn't the world record, like, four minutes?

Isn't the world record, like, three seconds?

2x2 = 4x4
3x3 = 9x9

Also, my friend says she had a friend who had a 25x25... which she couldn't solve. I'm not sure how she would even get it lol

Non-cuber friend: picks up my skewb and turns it. "Ow my brain hurts" says non cuber a nd puts skewb back down. Same person also made an hour long attempt at pyraminx but had to go home lol.

This happened like a month ago. I had switched from CFOP to Roux like a week ago, so obviously my average rose because I had less practice, and my mom's lsays ooks like the new method isn't going to well. And im like wow mom, i started a week ago.

2 stories:
1. I was in church and I was talking about my recent OH PB (35.33 seconds- I did FMC on it later and got 35 moves, which is my PB and good considering in the FMC I used full CFOP) My pastor was like One Handed? In 35 freaking seconds!
2. I was at home and telling my dad about my recent PB on the GAN X (got the PB 3 days ago, got the cube 5 days ago, told my dad about the PB
3 days ago, 3rd PB on the GAN X btw) Anyway, I said it was 14.18 seconds and that it was my first sub-15 solve ever, and he was like 14 Seconds! That's frickin' fast!

I guess non-cubers use the word "freaking" a lot to describe that... type... of thing.
Bye!

Earlier i was in the pool of the hotel im in, and there was this other kid. I asked him if he ever messed with a rubiks cube and he said he had two. I was kinda excited that i had met another cuber. Then he said its pretty easy, all you have to do is turn the sides randomly. Then i was sad

 

[EccentricSensei]

They think that a 2x2 only has 4 cubies (i seriously wonder why)

 

[QuestionableCuber]

Hey can I see ur 4x4 even though the layers are 2x2x2

We had a cubing comp at school, and the teachers didn't even know what they were doing. They didn't trust us to scrambles the cubes ourselves so they took turns scrambling the cubes for like 100 moves. Then they made us solve them in front of the entire year and while STANDING UP. We couldn't even sit down a solve it. And they didn't get stackmat timers or something they used stopwatches and timed us themselves. They also only gave us one try only to solve the cubes which is really unfair because one of us could get lucky and win. But worst of all, to start the solve, they said ''3, 2, 1, Rubik!'' replacing the word ''go'' with ''rubik''. I bet the audience found that funny, but us cubers found it extremely cringy.
