You know you are a speedcuber when...

[Mike Hughey]

Actually, I'm interested to know when RUR'U' was first referred to as the "sexy move". Anyone know the first instance?

Wiki entry

I'm pretty sure Arnaud was using the term as early as the US Open in 2007; I don't know if he actually created the term or got it from someone else, but he was certainly the first person I heard use it.

"Also.. just today: you know you are a speedcuber when you have a jar of body cream open, and you close it using that double finger layer turning trick hahahah."

You know you are a speedcuber when you are doing an untimed solve and when you finish you automatically slap whatever is in front of you.

Oh man.. mind image, heavily:

"No mr. police officer sir, I was not beating my wife intentionally, I just had a really great solve and forgot I was at home in bed with the wife on top of me"

(lesson: do not cube while being intimate with the missus)

I am going to quote a famous cuber here:

"You know you cube too much if.. you had at least three occurences where you had to remove a piece from the dirty toilet water".

Bonus points if you know who said this .

I was just thinking about something like that today. But I wonder how bad it is for your cube and does the lube get washed out?

I haven't done it in the tub, I was in the toilet lmao

Well then that's nothing new... I always cube on the toilet lol... I was wondering about bath or shower... same for underwater solves and the like.

 

[Kattenvriendin]

I doubt it is bad. Just make sure to disassemble the cube, including the core, and letting it dry completely before putting it back together.

However if material is used that does not rust, I don't think you even need to do that. Thorough dry (maybe take a piece out for faster drying) and (when bath) maybe a relube.

You know you've been speed cubing too much when you clean up your bedroom so that when your ShengShou 5x5x5 spits pieces you don't have to hunt around through mounds of trash for them.

Next on my list is cleaning bathroom floor. It's easy to find the cubies in my bathroom but the lubrication tends to pick up dust bunnies.
