I have one at work and use it for the same thing too. However, I do agree with others that have mentioned that the fidget cube is meant for mindless fidgeting, while a Rubik's you need to pay attention slightly. I say slightly since once you learn the algorithms, it gets a bit more of a mindless distraction.

Limbo-Sno... What debauchery will you indulge in tonight then? Not existing while existing would be pretty cool.

Hm. Yeah, if it can't fit in a pocket it's not worth me getting, really.

I do that almost everyday in the shopping center near my work, but I usually look around before doing it so.

I rolled a stop sign before I realized 2 cops were approaching the intersection. They got behind me then turned on the next street. Kinda pooped my pants because it was so obvious but they were probably responding to a higher priority call.

I once had an instance where I had a cop car flying right up to my ass with his lights on, and it was a total oh shit movement, so I proceed to pull over to the right lane, and speeds up right past me and pulls up some :mahtroy: in his beat to shit 90's Lexus ES. Not to mention, seconds before, I floored it to 60 in a 40 zone, then about 30 seconds later, BOOM cop in my rearview.

Did ya'lls crap out? Two out of the three of my "gear" wheels are already not clicking. They'll still roll but no satisfying click. After just a day.

The gear wheels are still working fine on miine...it's the "joystick" (for lack of a better word) that isn't as smooth as it was when I got it, but that's it.

Woa, really? Mine do...all 3 of them.

I wonder if some brands do and some don't?

I already have number two on order. It was mostly out of "one at home"/"one in work bag" desires but now I'm kinda bummed it crapped out already. It seems like it would be something they initially make to be overused.

I mean, a solid 8 hours on the first day isn't asking too much of this little thing, is it?

Mine sees ~8 hours/day and has survived the last few months without issue. Maybe you just got a bad one?

This implies that these things could sometimes be considered "good?"

Both of mine that I have the gears don't click anymore, the joy stick isn't as smooth, and the spinning side gets stuck every once in a while. But I do use mine 3-5 hours per cube every day.
