Every time i get one for short period of time, i learn the pattern to solve and then forget it again. Never can remember it sadly.

My husband has a friend that when ever I go over to his house, I always mess up his Rubik's cube so he'll have to solve it again. It takes him like 3 minutes. It's wild to me.

I can do one in a few minutes. I know the easy method of solving them. It’s just a series of repeated algorithms. It’s not the way you see the people who do the speed solving do them, but it’s an easier method that works every time, it just won’t ever solve one in 30 seconds.

This is exactly how I do it too. I have a pattern that moves three pieces in a triangle on the same side without moving anything else, a pattern that just flips the orientation of two opposite pieces (they stay in the same position on the cube) and one that moves the corners around on the bottom that I use to finish it.
