I never even bothered to try to. When was the last time you messed with one?

Not properly no.

But I did find a great cheat which was to peel off the stickers and put them back in colour order.

I enjoy solving Rubik's Cubes and do at least a few every day and have for many years.

Today I fixed one that broke recently due to a manufacturing error on the inside mechanism. It has 2x2 lego [compatible] studs on the plates so you can add your own colors/patterns, pretty cool, and now it works perfect again.

Only by cheating

Best I can do on my own is one side

Yes back in the 80s as a kid. Havent touched one since back then though. I didnt know any of the math behind solving it nor was I able to solve it quickly like some of those people you see.

I worked at it sporadically over time and over the course of a few weeks solved it. I have no doubt if I put effort into learning the algorithm to solve it I could become proficient at it.

Never, and actually trying was one of the least fun things I've ever done in my life.

One evening I decided to learn how to do it. First solve took 2-3 hours.

Over the next fortnight I continuously did it until I got it down to under 60 seconds.

I lost interest after that. Going from 60 seconds down to 10 is significantly more difficult and tricky than going from one hour to 60 seconds.

Don't ever let anyone fool you into thinking its a smart person thing. If you can memorise a half dozen button inputs for your favourite tekken character or beat pretty much any dark souls boss, you are smart enough to do a rubiks cube.

By force, yes.
Obviously that counts as a no.

I don't understand why people treat them as some kind of mystical device. Every cube sold comes with a booklet telling you exactly how to solve it.

Understanding algorithms isnt cheating. This rhetoric is only used by people who have never solved a cube.
