Designed to drive you insane with frustration. Where the ■■■■ do you start with it? Some people can do them in 5 seconds flat or something like that.
I bought a book on it once, followed the instructions, and solved my cube.
So I have never solved a cube despite trying many times.
It was always too easy to peel the stickers off and reattach them.
I don’t think they make them with stickers any more.
Or instructions
Here’s the offical instructions, from the rubiks website itself.
I had a retarded friend who loved Rubik’s cube.
Huh never knew this. I thought people just had a magic brain (or a dumb one like me)
I had a brain fart just reading stage 1 of those instructions. If I had gone further pieces of brain matter would have stuck to the laptop screen!
These things were a hot item when I was in high school in 1982. Everybody had one.
Many people say it’s the most popular toy in history. As for me the most frustrating - never solved it ;(
I solved one as a kid by peeling off the stickers once. Does that count?
The only puzzles I’m quite good at are crosswords and other word puzzles.
Interesting fact: in an early version of the big lebowski the dude was heir to the Rubik’s cube fortune.
Was a book that went into how to do it. Ended up getting that book when I wanted a Rubik’s cube. My brother is the intellect in the family (Also a bachelor’s degree in mathematics )and could never get it ether.
I thought it said @Rhubot’s cube
