charlesRubik's Cube Lubricant
:
I'm holed up in the hospital, recovering from a series of barbarous injuries.
It's my fingers. My fingers are all twisted and gnarled. Why?
These damn Rubik's Cubes! I've been rotating facets nonstop since Tuesday, not getting even close to solving the dastardly demon, and my hands have paid the ultimate price.
My Cube is a really tough sunuva... it resists the twists and turns, creaking in protest. Sometimes, I need to get the weight of my body behind it, grunting and sweating to get that crucial turn.
If only there was a better way!
Ah! I see that BoingBoing has posted an ad for a lubricant for Rubik's Cubes! Our prayers have been answered!
"Because until you try it, you just don't know how fast you can go"
I assume that the lube also prevents the Cube from heating up.... the last Cube I had burst into flames when I tried to push it too far. I had to recuperate for a month with burns on my hands and face.
Sure, it sounds funny, the idea of a grownman running down the street screaming, his hands and eyebrows on fire, with a flaming Rubik's Cube rolling down the hill after him, but you try it and see if you can easily explain it to the police. They're not interested in sob stories, apparently.
