Possibly originating from one Harriet Whiting via her diary circa 1945. The entry containing the term - like most of her writings - is littered with ill-applied mechanics, making it notably difficult to discern at times. Because of this, certain phrasing within the entry gave rise to the mystery of the "gooch cube," where Will Gooch - a man mentioned plenty throughout the diary, his surname but once - is described to have "...cubed the cattle," with the help of another man, Van Epps. Mr. Gooch's enigma of a surname combined with the odd phrasing of "cubing the cattle" (later substituted with "caking") gave rise to the term with "gooch" already being slang for a man's taint as of roughly 2003 ("gooch" as a noun being the gender-swapped counterpart of "cooch," a guy-cooch).
To many, this origin is completely unknown and instead exists as a nonsensical term within GIFs subtitled "gooch cube" in generic Sans Serif font - though Whiting's diary is indeed its oldest documentation. To clarify, to "cube" or to "cake" cattle is to feed them densely-packed feed often in the shape of a cube, hence the terms "cattle cube" and "cattle cake" to which the aforementioned are derivative, respectively (which is likely what Whiting meant).
As for the term's origin in the realm of GIFs, any known examples of its use are now lost, being dead links. To this end, "gooch cube" may not have a definition outside of this confusion, though it may be because of this reality that it has earned one.

ORIGINAL CITING "Van Epps bought 100 bushel corn piled on field west of State Land and he never went to church but hauled some in his trailer to-day and helped Will Gooch cube the cattle in p.m."
"What does that even mean? What's a gooch cube?"
"'Gooch cube' is funny. Teehee - haha."

when you've been playing with a Rubik's cube for so long that it starts to look weird, such as, the squares are looking more like a rhombus.

a better way to easily remember wing parity algs by using the power of intonation and speech. So for example, let us take the algorithm commonly used to solve the UFr BUr parity case: l’ U2 l' U2 M' U2 l' U2 l U2 r' U2 l2.
l’ U2 would be pronounced “latoo”, using the a in “part” and the ui in “fruit”, with the emphasis on the “la” syllable.
Similiarly, M’ U2 would be pronounced “matoo”.
l U2 however, to differentiate it from l’ U2, would be less emphasised on the “la” syllable.
l2 would be the same as l u2, but the emphasis would be on the last syllable.
Other common notation can easily be extrapolated from what I have described here.

Large collection of condo towers in an urban setting. Often filled with yuppies who often compare their dwellings with other glass and steel cubes in a vain attempt to differentiate their faceless boxes from the other faceless boxes. Comments often heard are as such: "We live in the OXFORD towers..you know, the ones with the SPIRE on top?" (Note: reader may substitute words in caps.) and constantly reassure themselves that their wise purchase of upgrades such as Granite counters and Stainless Steel appliances will somehow ensure a massive resale premium. Dwellers are often a mix of owners and renters (tenants of the next Donald Trump) all of whom believe the investment strategy they are using will help them gain big when they sell.
