Heh Puzzle (Rubik) Cubes. I could easily break locks due to my knowledge of solving it.

[Chiyeung DjChi Lau]

Wow, I would be late for class every single day if I had a Rubik cube locker -.-

[NickC]

Werdd. I have trouble opening my own lockers sometimes. I have like 3 and the combos are insane..

[banapopy]

Maybe you shouldn't use three then

Is she suggesting that Stuy kids are vain, stupid or both?

Nice idea, but the implementation is DOA. The shackle clearly interrupts the range of motion for the cube (whether in an open or closed position), which defeats the concept of the Rubik's cube. Long story short, you just have a fancy looking, excessively bulky paperweight *shrug*

FAIL!

Lol it's just a joke where people assume kids that can solve Rubik's cubes are smart and Stuyvesant kids are "claimed" to be the smartest.

I'm sure they can devise some workaround of the physical issues with the use of good old quantum tunneling.

It could in the end be a key lock. xD Just to spoil the joke.

When they do, I'll be sure to use those principles to facilitate myself out of this world.

It's not like many people will miss my absence anyway

Hahaha. This is hilarious.
For our lockers, instead of having Rubrics cubes, we should have the Puzzle Cubes they make us do in freshmen year in DDP. The thing you do with 5 components, has to make up a 3x3x3 cube... >.<
OUR version of the Rubrics cube.

Stuy students have to use a specific type of lock for all their lockers, which are also the same locks as the ones we use for gym.

That must suck because if all the lockers had the same lock and u didn't memorize your locker number, it would be hard to remember which locker is yours.

Well that would make sense, wouldn't it?

[kwamdefreshman]

Well actually, in my freshman year (2002-2003), students were allowed to use their own locks. From my recollection, many people used the standard combo Master locks anyway.

I was always a visual type of guy, so I memorized the relative location of my locker in the locker room. Failing that, I looked for my lockermates.
