Hadn't seen this one yet, it's a "This is GenIUs" coverage:

It seems as though they're confusing the 3x3 with teh 4x4

Here's a female competitor, to dispel the myth that cubers are geeky.

That sentence is missing a word. Who says females can't be geeky?

I think it's a joke. They meant that the female cuber interviewed is suppose to prove that cubers aren't geeky. Then after she goes on about algorithms and stuff they go 'Stop, you're making it worse'.

"Don't call them geeks - they're all carrying cubes with sharp edges."

Yeah, but I still don't like the assumption that female = not geeky.

 

[TobiasDaneels]

Stop, you're making it worse!

Pretty hard.

 

[joey]

I thought that video was absolute ****.

 

[Kirjava]

LOL GET A LOAD OF THOSE NERDS

 

[Stefan]

Yeah, but I still don't like the assumption that female = not geeky.

They're mocking that assumption and show that it's wrong. Isn't that good?

I like that video very much. Brief, funny, no blunders.

 

[joey]

"Which gathers together victims of bullying the world over"
Erm, no? I hate crap like that.

 

[Stefan]

Joey... it's a joke. Where's your sense of humour?

 

[joey]

Joke with.. or Joke at?

anyway, you don't have to find every joke funny

 

[CharlieCooper]

I actually found that pretty hilarious!

Yes they do make the odd joke, i.e. the bullying victims bit, which could be seen as a bit inappropriate, but so does a lot of other humour. Whatever, made me laugh

Not quite sure why they were so obsessed with 4x4 rather than 3x3 though??

 

[CitricAcid]

That video was absolutely retarded.

But also funnily sarcastic in a way,

ah well, it was funny.

 

[Deleted member 2864]

It was pretty good Why they would be interested in the 4x4 so much, I don't know. Maybe because they didn't get any winning 3x3 footage, since the media tends to be more interested in that.

 

[Faz]

Yeah, I didn't like the bit when Durben was talking, and they were like "nope, didn't catch a word of that"

Like, do they even understand he doesn't speak english?

 

[masterofthebass]

you obviously didn't understand that joke... Before he started to talk, they mentioned something about background noise, and his interview was overshadowed by the announcer being quite loud, making what he was saying not able to be heard. lrn2funny plz.

 

[Stefan]

Before he started to talk, they mentioned something about background noise

Yeah, "we spoke to him during the finals of the world background noise championships". Also, he *did* speak English.
