The Juggling Edge - Small Talk

At #Altern8 on Monday, I misheard something that Richard said (though neither of us could afterwards work out what was actually said), which made me imagine a new product:

"Rubik's shoes", anyone?

Is it time for the obligatory xkcd reference?

Maybe it was an anti-littering message - "Rubbish. Whose?"

He was almost certainly talking about inexperienced marsupials.

"Noobish Roos"

Are you sure he wasn't talking about the colours in the photos of said marsupials - the "Roo pix hues".

All good... but none of you have addressed the idea of what the concept behind "Rubik's Shoes" might be.....
Come on, we could be onto a fortune here....

Platform type shoes with Rubik's cubes as the heels/soles ?
Shoes patterned with brightly coloured squares that move around ?
Boring lace ups as worn by Hungarian Professors ?

This whole thread got quite silly. Nicely done, chaps.
