What is the worst/most annoying thing in speed cubing?

[AlexCube]

Things that I hate the most:
-Classmates that drop my cubes;
-Getting an Y perm(it may sound funny, but I have a lot of trouble recognising it);
-Having a 5x5 or a 7x7 pop;
-Silly questions from people, like „How do I move that piece there?";
-Bad jokes like doing an U turn and reversing it. They really think they're funny while foing that;
-Getting a PLL or OLL skip on awesome solves or getting a dotted OLL and G perm after great F2L;
-People that ask me to show them how do I solve it and after one minute they get bored or they don't pay attention to me.

That's like the most comprehensive answer. I totally identify

getting a corner twist every 3rd solve on my sulong (which isn't very loose )

How my message would be different from other messages in this thread? I just tried to tell my thoughts :/ I know it's kinda fun to show up to other peoples because you can do something cool but still.

Haha I don't quite understand what you're saying?

Does it even matter? Peace.

When you begin to reassemble a cube, at least on the Zhanchi assembling the bottom layer is a pain to begin with. You slide one piece in, slide two more in, you're about to do finish it and bam, all three pieces have just came out, one went on the floor and is now covered in dust, and your hands are covered in lubricant T_T

why 5 and 7 pops? aren't 4 and 6 pops more annoying or is It just me?

I'm not sure but can't you but the pieces almost anywhere you want in 4x4 and 6x6?

When I'm doing some good old fashioned clak and getting decent times, then all the sudden a terrible solve, and DNF.
Ling'ao clocks.
When I'm solving and then my laptop crashes (it's gonna happen eventually, i know it), or the timer stops responding.

There are these things called tables
Funnily enough not many people are much good at assembling cubes. It is a pain, but if you do it right it goes pretty smoothly. You just have to get really good at holding pieces in place. And use a table to catch pieces.
It's also much easier to loosen the cube up for assembly so the pieces don't shoot out, then tighten it back up when you're done.

I don't get what's so hard about reassembling cubes... idk how other people do it, but I do cross, first layer corners, F2L minus an edge, LL doing edge-corner-edge-corner etc., then the last edge, turning a layer 45 degrees. I never have any problems.

I build it like petrus haha

2x2 block, 2x2x3, finish f2l, LL

 

[nikhil647]

I hate it when my cube locks up,i guess thats the most annoying thing according to me.

 

[Flame838]

When your current solve is a little offbeat and you're like "oh this will only be a little off my average".
And then you look at the timer and your solve was 10 seconds slower.
Fuuuu

This works really well since the blocks lock together nicely.

Me: "wow this maybe a new PB if I go on like this"
*brother comes in and stops timer*
Just....

Putting together a Moyu Aosu for the first time. >.> Most difficult cube I've ever had to put together.

 

[Chrisalead]

IMO : 4x4 cubes, they all suck terrible. And the need to clean/lube cubes regularly.

Have you tried a Moyu Aosu?

 

[guysensei1]

New one I got recently,
I hate moyu cores. Their screw holes aren't even in the center most of the time. It results in the tension on one side being super tight, but do an x2 and check the tensions, and it's so loose that the pieces can be pulled out.

 

[CriticalCubing]

Locking up while solving. I have broken 2 cubes out of Rage when they lock up
And also 4x4 reassembling... But I learnt it good anyway
