Random irrelevance that just didn't fit into other forums. Talk about anything.

Now do it blind-folded. :lol:

If I had a lubed DIY cube like him, and was a little better with one-handed solves I could probably do that... but it would definitely be a challenge.
Not bad for someone who isn't Asian.

Hell, wouldn't that make it even more difficult? The image is backwards from what one normally sees on screen. I know I couldn't do this... I'm too old to have that much time for practice! :)

And that cube is more loose than a chick after childbirth.

Some people play DDR without looking at the screen.
