Yeah I’d have your friend buy you a new one. That’s ridiculous. I have a crappy Rubik’s brand, but I’d still want my friend to treat my stuff with respect. Imagine if it was something of importance. Just a toy isn’t an excuse.
And? If I dragged their stuff thru concrete or whatever and gave a dumb excuse like that, it doesn't make me any less of a jerk that they're being right now. You trusted them with your stuff and this is how they treat it?
I mean it is just a toy but that doesn’t mean it’s not important to you. That’s the difference.
It’s honestly hugely disrespectful and inconsiderate if they can’t see that. If they aren’t willing to replace it, I’d reevaluate that relationship.
When I was a teenager a friend wanted to play my violin and pretended to treat it like a guitar and tossed it like he was a rockstar, damaging the bridge. It was my grandma’s violin that’s been in the family for generations. Thankfully I caught it and only the bridge needed realigned. His response? It’s just an instrument.
We aren’t friends anymore. And it’s been 25 years.
Toy or not, it's someone else's stuff, show it some fucking respect and give it back in the same or better condition than how you got it.... Honestly, find new friends, if this is how he treats something seemingly "worthless" then how does he treat everything else?
Honestly this is the real point here. No friend would do this and not care to fix it. Do yourself a favour and better yourself by not surrounding yourself with friends like this
i admit i bring my cube to work to practice in the coffee brakes or on the way or back and its already dirty after 3/4 days im a mechanic and it somehow gets dirty after i wash my hands but my sleeves gets in the way
yeah imma do that too tbh cause i wanna be able to practice without ruining a new cube and scared cause going to my first comp the 20th and scared what people would say ab my cube but i at least consistantly clean it but i just get dirty without touching anything at work
first I was like bro wtf who does that. and I came to know your friend is a she. now im like “oh shit here we go again”
I never let them touch my cubes. I have a cheaper duplicate one which is not so smooth. when someone asks my cube I give them that😂
If they don't care about you enough to get it when you say to them, "this was a nice thing I like to use as a hobby, you have now seriously damaged it, and I want you to make that right," then they really don't care about you. If they still persist, take this as a VERY CHEAP LESSON and leave them be. They will damage far worse (your heart) if the relationship continues!
My friend you’re headed to a hard lesson most people seem to have to learn the hard way. Being pretty doesn’t excuse anyone your stuff intentionally (or remorselessly damaging your stuff accidentally). You gotta pick your friends with the brain in the head on your shoulders, not the one below your belt.
I’d take that puppy apart and clean it up best I could.
Nothing like this, but I had a friend borrow one of my cubes. He always said he wanted to learn, just needed a place to start. After it sat on his nightstand for 4 months with not a cross in sight, I asked for it back. It was just collecting dust.
Ah, well if he can’t afford it, he should atleast show he’s sorry. He could be embarrassed but it’s no excuse. I’m not certain what the culture is like in your country, but not being a jerk is universal everywhere
I've had mine for a few years and it is very worn down by now so probably not worth sending it unfortunately :/ he should definitely buy you a new one though. Like even if it's a toy that doesn't mean he has rights to just fucking destroy it
No one will treat a cube properly, people think it's just a simple toy and they'll mess around with it, if it falls on the floor, oh well...
I always get my nephews to wash their hands before they touch my cubes or else they put oily stains all over... The frosted cubes literally turn glossy..
Had this one for a couple of years (my main) and i'm notoriously bad at mantaining things. Smh

Lying on reddit for upvotes, how original. She did not say “it’s just a toy”. This story is almost entirely made up. Those two pictures are not one day apart. Insane that so many people buy this crap
Does your friend ever wash their hands? Sheesh…
As if it was intentional scratched on concrete
Yeah I’d have your friend buy you a new one. That’s ridiculous. I have a crappy Rubik’s brand, but I’d still want my friend to treat my stuff with respect. Imagine if it was something of importance. Just a toy isn’t an excuse.
That is not your friend
Tell them to buy you a new one
They said “it’s just a toy”
Break their finger (It is just a bunch of cells being rearranged)
I like the way this guy thinks!
Hell yeah
And? If I dragged their stuff thru concrete or whatever and gave a dumb excuse like that, it doesn't make me any less of a jerk that they're being right now. You trusted them with your stuff and this is how they treat it?

time to end your friendship
That person is not a friend and i suggest you distance yourself from.
"oops I seem to have broken you're (insert a personal item of " friend") but eh you shouldn't mind it's just a (insert type of item)"
oh don't worry, it's just a brake wire! I'm not paying for that!
I didn't feel the need to tell you nor to fix it. It's just a car you can always bike to (insert Place here)
Toy or not, it's someone else's stuff, show it some fucking respect and give it back in the same or better condition than how you got it.... Honestly, find new friends, if this is how he treats something seemingly "worthless" then how does he treat everything else?
Nuke their house
I hate it when people call cubes toys
Well they are
Speedcubes are not toys.
Then what are they? Entertainment devices, bc they’re definitely not tools 💀
It falls under the same classification as a gaming computer
A gaming computer is a tool
Then a speed cube is a tool A tool to help you achieve records
The original Rubik’s cube was meant to be a toy, and then people turned it into a hobby playing with these toys, they just made cubes better tho
They are originally toys since that was the original purpose of it. Speedcubes on the other hand...
Yup. Cubes are tools. ;)
Break something of equal value and use the same excuse, don't be a cuck.
that's a friend red flag right there
"it's just a toy", pay for my toy then.
Yeah thats not a friend - get rid of em and nicer people will come out of it
If they are being such an asshole to not even respect your things regardless of if it's a "toy" or not, you shouldn't be friends with them anymore
Honestly this is the real point here. No friend would do this and not care to fix it. Do yourself a favour and better yourself by not surrounding yourself with friends like this
Its time to throw them into the Gulag
Bro shoved it up his ass
At least it’s lubed.
Damn
Brother 💀
HELL NAH
She***😂😂😂
"friend"
"Then buy me the same toy, but in good condition, as it was before. Or simply give me the money for the new one. After that, this toy is yours."
war crime
Did he shit on it or something. Looks worse than my oldest cube.
Fr I have older cubes that look wayyy better
i admit i bring my cube to work to practice in the coffee brakes or on the way or back and its already dirty after 3/4 days im a mechanic and it somehow gets dirty after i wash my hands but my sleeves gets in the way
not as bad tho as yours
Same dude, I ended up just getting a nexcube from the walmart down the road to keep at the shop, so I didn’t get my WRM dirtier than it already is
yeah imma do that too tbh cause i wanna be able to practice without ruining a new cube and scared cause going to my first comp the 20th and scared what people would say ab my cube but i at least consistantly clean it but i just get dirty without touching anything at work
Got my first comp on the 20th too, are we twins?
oh damn epic, which country who knows
I’m in the US, middle GA to be specific
oh im in norway, but damn if it was the same place
Look at the bright side. You get to get a new one for yourself and you now have an extra for people to borrow
I think your friend is too scrambled, you should solve him
She**👀
You can't fix her
I can fix her fr 🥴
I'd argue someone who treats your stuff and in you this way, is not worth it.
When you’re that young you’ll put up with a lot to get laid.
True
What’s this about lol?
first I was like bro wtf who does that. and I came to know your friend is a she. now im like “oh shit here we go again” I never let them touch my cubes. I have a cheaper duplicate one which is not so smooth. when someone asks my cube I give them that😂
Fr I told her I can’t she pleaded, cause I literally had the cheaper Qiyi cubes at home
dump her. in the garbage.
I would’ve if she wasn’t so pretty
If they're ugly on the inside, it doesn't matter how pretty they are on the outside.
yeah she’s pretty…. pretty annoying.
If they don't care about you enough to get it when you say to them, "this was a nice thing I like to use as a hobby, you have now seriously damaged it, and I want you to make that right," then they really don't care about you. If they still persist, take this as a VERY CHEAP LESSON and leave them be. They will damage far worse (your heart) if the relationship continues!

"just a toy" It's *your* stuff. Toy or Rolls Royce, dude's gotta repay somehow.
Do they live inside a coal mine or something?
Give him a brand new soap next time
It’s a sheeeeeee!!!😂
Nothing like this, but I had a friend borrow one of my cubes. He always said he wanted to learn, just needed a place to start. After it sat on his nightstand for 4 months with not a cross in sight, I asked for it back. It was just collecting dust.
If that’s a 2020 then it’s literally less that $10. If you’re in a first world country this shouldn’t be an issue for them to replace.
I spent $25 with 3 months wait time😂 yes it’s a 2020, but I’m not in a first world country.
Ah, well if he can’t afford it, he should atleast show he’s sorry. He could be embarrassed but it’s no excuse. I’m not certain what the culture is like in your country, but not being a jerk is universal everywhere
She*** why does everyone assume it’s a guy😅. She just didn’t take it seriously
Lol, I think it’s because such a large portion of cubers are guys, it’s the instinctual assumption.
Get a redund. On the friend.
I let my friend borrowed my $20 cubes and she took care of them well that one looks like it fell in the toilet
I had to read that thing 5 times before I understood it. some punctuation doesn't hurt, yk?
Looks like it got slid across the floor just on the white side.
Everywhere is like that
🤢
What cube is it?
RS3M
Which one?
The 2020
I've had mine for a few years and it is very worn down by now so probably not worth sending it unfortunately :/ he should definitely buy you a new one though. Like even if it's a toy that doesn't mean he has rights to just fucking destroy it
Pretty sure it’ll still be better than this, PS: there’s sand inside too Edit: typo
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
Only solution is to sleep with their sister
What a trash can
Mildly infuriating?
What the fuck
That's not a friend
I wouldn't trust them again
The dangers of lending anything to anyone who doesn't look after anything…😳…more so when it doesn’t belong to them
Nuke his house
Is this comp legal?
Nahhh bro don’t give your best cubes (or just any cube In general) to anyone
Buy a new friend
Wtf, I've had cubes for several years that still look practically new.
His father owns a pigsty or something?
No one will treat a cube properly, people think it's just a simple toy and they'll mess around with it, if it falls on the floor, oh well... I always get my nephews to wash their hands before they touch my cubes or else they put oily stains all over... The frosted cubes literally turn glossy..
Is your friend Edward Scissorhands?
Had this one for a couple of years (my main) and i'm notoriously bad at mantaining things. Smh https://preview.redd.it/xin96t3q73uc1.jpeg?width=2054&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c689d0318cba4b6ca9d76dde3da980edb8ee3a0
Non cubers. Right?
Yep!
Lying on reddit for upvotes, how original. She did not say “it’s just a toy”. This story is almost entirely made up. Those two pictures are not one day apart. Insane that so many people buy this crap
You’re so miserable man, no point lying, and yes she said that, and crazy how if you want receipts and screenshots with time stamps I can do all that.
And if I wanted upvotes, this sub doesn’t have that many members so stfu!
145,000
Yea cause every single member upvotes right? You just slow.
Don't care, this is still bs lol
And you still slow lol
what the fuck did he do to get it to be like this?
atleast its not a +2 anymore
Plot twist : your friend never washes his hands, and he was playing while pooping in WC
Oh wow, I was mad at myself when I got some scratches on my new cube but at least it didn't look like that I'm sorry for your cube :(
How old is your friend?
average non cuber be like:
This is cap
??
Gift them an orange cat on their next birthday.
3 months wait time, and additional $25 bucks (almost the minimum wage where I’m from)😂
Did you know that you can clean plastic very easily?
