I know this is dumb but I was wondering. Do girls like cubers? I am a cuber and I was wondering.

It depends on the girl, and it depends on the cuber.
When I first met my current girlfriend, I walked into her room and there was a Rubik's cube on her desk. Suffice it to say, I was pretty thrilled.

The more well-rounded a person you are the more likely you'll be attractive to others. If there is one interest / trait that defines you then you're probably going to be less attractive.
If the statement "I am a <fill in the blank>." describes you better than "I like <fill in the blank> but I also like <long list of other fun stuff>." then you'll probably have trouble with relationships.
While it's true that statistically men are much more likely to have hobbies related to cubing / puzzles / math, it's a myth that women don't like those things.

Although, "I am a <rich, powerful, celebrity sex symbol>" usually goes down quite well with most girls - more so than "I like <puzzles>, but I also like <mathematics, computing, strategy, chess, statistical modeling, etc., etc.>". Or so I am told.

Most of the girls I know immediately want to try them, so I guess that's better than calling me a huge nerd. One time a girl threw my 4x4 at a chalkboard, though.

Ahem - Did you try the Sexy Move on her?  That is true. Girls are like puzzles. At least I can solve a twisty puzzle. Sexy move is good. If they can't solve teach them sexy method. Say because I was thinking of you.

Well, I'm looking forward to learn the response from the famous Mrs. S. when she learns she's part of Kevin's puzzle collection  Has anyone got any gaffer tape? I tried to unwrap her and put her in one of my puzzle cupboards but the noise was terrible! I need to seal the noisy orifice and close the laser burning eyes before she does me some serious damage!! Actually she has reason to do me some damage as I have had quite a lot of puzzle deliveries over the last few weeks! The postman is so intrigued that we actually invited him into the house to have a look at the now seriously large collection!

Women are definitely a puzzle - I've mostly figured them out except for that dang parity.

Meaning- It's so early and I so don't want to be here I really can't be bothered to say good morning and it isn't one anyway. I can't be rude and ignore you though so I have to make some sort of noise. If that's not good enough then tough.
