Followed directions incorrectly. Pinhead appeared.

SuspiciousCactus
Even this guide is too complicated.
TyeSunfury
OR you could blow it up
Squeaky4U
This is the pdf I used to learn
SkalorLune
Look at this shit, yet people can do this in mere seconds!
AMutatedWorm
Or, get this, or you could just peel off the stickers
Zedelom

ShegorathDarkLordOfKittens
Instructions too confusing, got dick stuck in ceiling fan.
TEGHO
I was 4 when I learned to solve them. Also note, some have different colors opposite eachother; mine was white/blue green/yellow red/orange
Tswiggs
Why is this here? This is literally from the Rubik's cube website.
danedil
Where the tl;Dr for this one?
MyCrayonz
Tl;Dr peel off stickers and put them in the right spot
ServeAndOffend
And that is how a bill becomes a law!
emberfairy
I've done this, can confirm it works like a charm 10/10 times
Misskwy
Was expecting last picture to be a demolished cube and a hammer. Slightly disappointed.
nicemathmom
TL;DR Favorite for later though...
SauteThoseOnionsYouSickBastard
There is a simpler way that doesn't require "algorithms". Just some logic and one move to repeat, called the Sexy Move.
DoctorMagicPants
R U R' U'
SauteThoseOnionsYouSickBastard
That one :)
imgonnawreckitagain
great, now i have to go buy one
1stNeonStar
This is one of the better guides I have seen it make the front page. And I do recommend learning how to actually solve a cube. It's fun.
PsuedoIngress
You can download the app onto your phone if you have an iPhone or Android device :D
ERMAHGERDCERNDERG
This was the instruction guide that came with my cube some years ago.

fullofwastedpotential
That explains a lot
imgonnawreckitagain
remember... even hope was in pandora's box.
AccountingRapunzel
I totally did and now I can do it. Memorizing all the algorithms takes some time.
Dombieman
Dont do it theyre still boxes of evil even if you can solve them!
Ballzout64
I'll be watching TV and all of sudden look down to notice one has found it's way into my hands and I've been mindlessly solving it...
Dombieman
Dammit now do you see what happens when you talk about them
leoturds4sale
Instructions unclear. Made a death clock.

I practice this on the shitter. While I shit.

Instructions unclear. try one; http://imgur.com/XRagZT0">http://imgur.com/XRagZT0 try 2; http://imgur.com/nyIRJqc
sono2015
Instructions unclear, got my tit stuck in the cube.
Sturmi
To be honest i´ve learned to sove one yesterday but that was easier then read though this mess .
TNBC42
And when do you plan on learning grammar?
kennethalcs
I have a bunch of bootleg cubes up for grabs if anyone is really interested in learning.

kennethalcs
Made in China non-brand Rubik's cubes. "Wonderful Puzzle" lol

kennethalcs
Cool. Now to figure out how to get a couple to you lol
Frazianalan
Semi-pro cuber here, I love this method but it is not the fastest method. F2L is another method of you want to get a little more serious wit
Frazianalan
h more intense and specific algorithms
justbake
I learned by the traditional cross-layer method.. after I learned the puzzle I taught myself corners-in, faster but more difficult at first
Frazianalan
I was the same with how I learned. I learned from Dan brown a few years ago
AnnaNimitee
Step 1. Remove stickers. Step 2. Replace stickers in the correct order
Brainbo
Yes! You win.
Niphanos
Actually, according to the definition of solving a Rubik's Cube, just removing the stickers works. Each face is one whole colour.
xenomorph76
That's how I finally solved mine when I was a kid, about 30 years ago. Then my dad beat the shit out of me for ruining it.
p4th0g3n
No don't do that, the stickers never stick correctly again. It is THE #1 selling toy ever, and 99% of them never get solved. Poor cubes.
ashipthatshipsshippingships
TL:DR I just took it apart and put it together again in the right pattern.
Zucheto
I know how to solve the cube, but after solving the yellow cross my method varies pretty greatly. I tried the above method and couldn't
Zucheto
get the top all yellow following these instructions.
witsd
Unless things have changed, Rubik's Cubes come with these instructions.
AlphaVirus2g
I bought one least weekend and no instructions were included.
justbake
I keep a copy of 4x4/5x5 instructions with me at all times.
witsd
They make Rubik's Squares?
PaulsonPieces
They do.
bachterman
i got mine in 1981, no instructions.
IHaveAllTheKoalafications
They have a website now, that this was lifted from http://rubiks.com/blog/how-to-solve-the-rubiks-cube
mariomario42
Naw, it's a front page repost of stolen images from the website! Maximum efficiency.
witsd
I guess that makes sense. Loads cheaper than printing booklets.
justino37
I bought one last week, no such instructions.
b0xman
yeah, because you have to *solve* it
justino37
If there was a problem, yo, I'll solve it.
PaulsonPieces
Then you didn't buy a Rubik's cube.
justino37
I did, tho. That's the thing. It's even Rubiks brand.
NolanEmerson
It's in the bottom of the packaging. Placed in a place so well thought of for such this purpose, you can't find them
grantypanties
I remember one of my first cubes didn't have the instructions in it but the rest after it did could be a manufacturing error.
witsd
I guess things have changed. For the record, mines was bought in the mid-90s.

World record is 4.9 seconds. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh0W8E4cNkQ
jjayhawk9
How did I know there would be someone taking pictures with a tablet in that video?
TheColossalTitan
God dammit one of them said "what are thoooose"
Niphanos
At this point the world record is literally just who can move their fingers fastest. All of them know the moves the moment they see it.
WeinerManJenkins
They don't know all of the moves they need, they can only "see" about 5-15 moves into the solve. Source: I do this a TON. :p
Niphanos
You're telling me that people who solve Cubes blindfolded don't have every single move planned out in advance?
WeinerManJenkins
spot. We assign each piece a letter and memorize such as ABCD, the buffer piece would be A's piece but then we would use the algorithm 2/?
WeinerManJenkins
No, we memorize where each piece needs to go and then, depending on the method, use an algorithm to put a "buffer" piece into a target 1/?
WeinerManJenkins
ABCD, and we swap with the piece in the B position. 4/4 Sorry that was kind of long and probably not explained well :p
Niphanos
You kinda explained it like you could still see the pieces. Does this technique work without being able to see them?
WeinerManJenkins
to put the buffer, which is the A piece, into A's actual position. Then the piece we swapped will be the B piece, assuming our memo was 3/?
