101 Annoying Things You've Heard Your Friends Say While Scrambling Your Cube

[iflyxjoseph]

315: i teach them U Ri Ui R. they keep doing it then they say I SOLVED IT!!
316: (same person who said they solved it) i do 3 turns. they mess with it for 30 min.and give it back to you all scrambled.
317: you get a fast time, they say solve it faster! you dont and they say you ****ing suck! (lets see you solve it)
318:wrong, that color is supposed to be over there (i rotate the cube) wrong again red is supposed to be on top, and orange on front. -_-
319: (friend asked my math teacher) if you can solve the rubiks cube do you get extra credit? (this is the same guy as 315 -_-)

320) You're fast but I've seen a friend who can solve it in about 5 seconds he is really fast (proceeds with weird gestures)

321) Did you know the World Record for that thing is like 1 second?
Me: *epic facepalm*

322. One time, I was going to try BLD (and I hadn't (and still haven't) got a successful solve fully with really memorizing) and the two people watching me were finding a "blindfold" so they took a piece of construction paper and kept frickin shoving it in my face asking, "Are you ready yet?". ***, no. If I was ready, I would have told them. And since I was (and still am) a noob, it takes a while to get the memo, and it takes even longer to be able to memorize it. I didn't even bother, I just peeked under the paper and solved it normally. Too bad I'm very lazy, because I would probably be able to solve it BLD by now.

323: when I was playing with my magic, going back between the two solved states...
"WOAH!!! Is that some kind of new Rubik's Cube?"
me: *looks down...* "I don't think you should be going into proof Geo any time soon...

321) Did you know the World Record for that thing is like 1 second?
Me: *epic facepalm*

I get that more often with things like "I heard someone can do it behind their back in 15 seconds!", and "I heard someone can do it in 5 seconds!". Never heard of one second.

However....

324) You just memorize the turns, right?
325)
PERSON: I want to scramble it.
ME: (hands it to person and person starts scrambling) OK, but be careful, it's very loose, and...
*big pop*
PERSON: I broke it!!!!!!

I don't know how many times that's happened to me.

326) Them:"Let me scramble it!"
Me: Sure, OK...
Them: *starts scrambling at 1 TPS only doing M, E and S moves...*
Me:" give it back, I can scramble it better than you..."
Them: "No! You'll like memorize the turns or something..."

327) *On a bus, My stop is practically next*
Them:"And they have some that aren't really even cubes..."
Me: "Oh, you mean like this?" *takes out Sq-1*
Them:"WOAH!!! Crazy!!!"
Me: *messes around for a second, fixing square shape and leaving easy PLL's* after 20 seconds (they made sure to count ) I solved (normal solve is ~1:30-2:30) "That wasn't very hard, I didn't mess it up very much...
Them:" CHEATER!!!"
Me: gets off bus...

 

[Lord Voldemort]

I'd say you'd be lucky to get 1 TPS...
They do U3s and stuff a lot

 

[JTW2007]

328. Me: *does a sub 20 avg. of 12*
Normal Person: "Whoa! He just solved a 'Rubrix Cube' in like, 10 minutes!

 

[mcciff2112]

*doing a solve in my study hall, finishes, easy J perm with a decent fingertrick*

Some random girl behind me: "Did you just do that whole thing?"
Me: "Uh, Yeah?"
(thinking to myself): "No, actually the Rubik's cube fairy came down and solved it for me."

 

[chimpzi]

my neighbor and his father were watching dragon ball evolution[pirated..=]] then i came and watch at the ending part only while holding a cube.

Me: i dont like the effects..its for kids.

neighbors: you're the one acting like a kid. playing cube is a kid stuff!

Me: duh!..you cant even solve this!..[while thinking like "go to hell!"]

 

[DaveDiablos]

331)
me: *scrambling the 5x5*

someone: I need 20 years of my life to finish that...

332)
me: *when finish solving 5x5*

friend: Wah , I can do that in 3 moves...

Me: "facepalm"

 

[shoot1510]

My classmate Danny N. was so weird when he saw me solving the cube at lunch.

Danny: I bet I can solve that.
Me: Really?
Danny: Yeah! Give me the cube.
Me:No! It my speedcube.
Danny: I bet you $20, no $50 I can do the rubik cube.
Me: No! I told you it my speedcube.

While I when to get food, I notice Danny N. was with my speedcube and my 5x5x5. I ran all the way to Danny.
Me: I said don't touch my cubes.
Danny: Fu## off man, just let me play with them.
Me: No! All I said was NO!!
Danny: Dumbass
Me: you are a Dumbass
The Detective walk around our table.
I laugh.

Me: Wow!! Even that Detective doesn't even notice our cursed words.
Danny: I will **** your mother.

It keep going on in till the end of lunch.

 

[Poke]

Other Person: Can I play with it.
Me: I guess...
Other person: This thing is slick... how much did it cost.
Me: 10 Bucks, plus about 4 or 5 for shipping.
Other person: YOU PAID 15 DOLLARS FOR A RUBIK'S CUBE *pop* and it sucks, you need a new one.
Me: I like this one, it turns better.
Other person: I didn't notice any difference.

How can you go back on yourself after about 10 seconds... or less?

 

[Nilxchaos]

333.) WHATZ THE PATTERNZ!!!!!!! (only a tad exaggerated)
334.) Someone: I can do a side! *does side*
Me: *looks at cube, not correctly done* You did it wrong... You're supposed to make...
*cutoff*
Person: NO! All the colors are touching! It's right!
335.) (after 334) *solving first layer the correct way*
Person: YOU MESSED IT UP!! WHY?!?!?!

336.) *I do a U2/R U R'* I can do that!
*Messes up R U R'* It's too hard, fix it.
(My revenge) *Friend scrambling*
* I say this at every move* "I can do that! and that, and that, and that..."
"YES I KNOW!!!! Sheesh."

Kinda off topic: I love it when doing PLL (or especially Dan Brown's PLL) The idiots say "Haha you messed up." Because a second later it is solved. The look on their face is priceless.
I am also never bringing a DIY to school.

337.) (Heard behind me) Whats with all the f***ing Rubik's cubes now?
(I started the "craze" at my school. There were two other guys that did it, but when I started to bring and solve mine, I see more and more people bring cubes in. So that is an insult to me.)

338.) "My friend can do it behind his back blindfolded in like, 30 seconds!"(partially believable.)

339.) *after done with OLL* He solved it! Wait... what are you doing?! It was... Oh.... That was stupid.

340.) *done with OLL, proceed to PLL* "I hate it when you do that."(regarding OLL)

341.) DON'T LOOK!!!! He's memorizing what I do.... *evil eyes (yes, two people scrambling)*

342.) (I like to show off and not look at the PLL and inbetween 2-Look OLL as I solve) "Now do the whole thing without looking!"

EDIT: 343.) How do you take it apart? *pulls on corner*

DOUBLE EDIT: 344.) "How did you get this so loose?"
"I lubed it..."
*chuckles* (goes away or turns to friend) "That kid lubes his cube."
(And I'm the pervert...)

335.) I bet he hides crack in it... *looks for way to open cube* Where is it?!

346.) (my personal favorite) "Put that thing away, it's childish and immature! I'm sick if that kind of behavior today. In fact never bring it again."

(teacher as we watch Rube Goldberg videos)
(I have brought it in every day since then, not a word said)

I can't stand this!!! I think it might be my least favorite.

347. Person: Can I mix it for you?
Me: Sure... Just be careful.
Person: *5 piece pop after R6 L3* *Puts it back together (incorrectly) edges first, corners last* "Solve it!
Me: *Solves, but takes out incorrect pieces to make it possible*
Person: You're cheating! You took out the pieces!
Me: (rather than explain orientation and permutation) So did you.

348) Some guy wanted to scramble my cube. He took it and kept doing R moves on the R face, after about R14 he asked, "Is there any other way to mix it?"...

349) My teacher wanted to time how long I'd take solving a 3x3. He scrambled it, gave me it, and said, "GO!". I solved it in around 15 seconds, but the teacher walked away (wtf?). He came back about a minute later, looked at the clock and was like, "Wow! 1 minute and 12 seconds!"...

Some guy in his mid 30es was trying to U moves while the 4 face was 45 degrees off.

And some other person scrambled my cube doing R and L moves, thinking that it's the best way, then solved it (wow) and said "Well what it's not so hard."

 

[qqwref]

Other person: YOU PAID 15 DOLLARS FOR A RUBIK'S CUBE

I never understood why people have an objection to stuff like this. It's not like $15 or $20 is a lot of money - that's the price of two movie tickets, 1/2 or 1/3 of a video game, dinner at a reasonably-priced restaurant, or a typical shirt. Maybe people don't realize that someone who plays with their cube all the time is getting a really great deal for their money, because spending $15 for something you can spend hundreds of hours playing with is a much better use of money than almost anything else you buy (and definitely a much better deal than the things I mentioned, unless you tend to spend hundreds of hours playing the same video game)...

347. Person: Can I mix it for you?

I really like this answer. Nice one

Haha, WTF?

 

[JTW2007]

350. Me: *scrambles cube*
Person: Look! He's doing it without looking at it!
Me: No, actually I'm just scrambling it right now.
Person: Oh. That's okay, I can't solve it either.
