when people ask you how you solve the rubik's cube so fast you say. . .

[Weston]

i told a bunch of people that i sold my soul to the devil when they asked me how i solve it so fast.

when they ask "how do you know which way to turn it?"
i say, i was born with a talent that cant be learned.

when they ask me "there is just a pattern right?" i say
No, whoever told you that is a complete moron.

what do you say?

 

[ender9994]

I always tell people that I have no clue how I solve it, I just turn the cube really fast and make swishing sounds....and it always turns out solved

 

[Kian]

I say "a lot of practice." If they ask more, I'll explain further.

 

[Paul Wagner]

I say "With my hands".

 

[Logan]

Them: How do you solve a Rubik's cube so fast?
Me: First I get a cross then I do F2L, then OLL, then PLL.
Them: Huh?
Me: F2L is solving the first two layers. OLL is ori-
Them: Whats a Layer?
Me: This *points to a blue layer*
Them: oh, so it's the blue ones.
Me: No. It's... Nevermind..... As I was saying, OLL is Orienting the last lay-
Them: What does oreo mean?
Me: Orient not oreo.
Them: oh.
Me: PLL is Permutation of la-
Them: What does perm-
Me: SHUT UP!!!!! OLL and PLL can be done with a series of algorithms.
Them: What does alegorithioamm mean?
Me: ...!@#$ YOU!!! *I shoot myself*
Them: oh. now I get it. You just do like Right Right Left Left Up Down Right over and over again.
Me: *rolls over in grave*



That's the typical conversation.

 

[SparkZer00]

I say that aliens abducted me, and they taught me on their spaceship

 

[JTW2007]

Practice...

EDIT: Paul's response wins.

 

[royzabeast]

I usually say "Well see what I do is solve the first layer, then the second layer (easier then explaining how I solve them at the same time) and then I get all the yellow stickers on top and I move those last pieces around to solve it."

 

[qqwref]

"The trick is to know what you're doing."

 

[stevethecuber]

i say youtube

 

[EmersonHerrmann]

"You just have to practice a lot and stuff."

"Yeah, but how do you do it?"

"There's just a method."

etc.

 

[Crystl]

I say "a lot of practice."

That's mine, too.

 

[Me]

"I've been doing this for four years."

or

"There are people who are faster than me." (then the topic changes)

and then they typically make a joke about how they would always just rearrange the stickers.

 

[Shmekekey]

I usually just say "It's magic"

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

and then they typically make a joke about how they would always just rearrange the stickers.

Hehe, when they say that to me, I always respond with "Hahaha! That's funny, never heard that one before (with the most sarcastic face you can imagine)! Now fack awf."

 

[Weston]

i never give them a straight answer.
i always like to play around with them and confuse them even more

 

[LarsN]

People almost never ask me how I do it. They always say: "I could never do that."

Then there are the people who want to sound as if they could if they liked. They say: "I don't have the patience to solve those."
Then I go: "Patience? It takes less than 20 seconds!"

 

[mooseguy]

I say "With my hands".

Haha, I use that too. It puts them off

 

[Ryanrex116]

I usually say "magic" or "mad skills"

 

[Carrot]

I normally just begin solving it while I say "I don't know, I just turn it randomly.." then When I get to the PLL I look at the person instead of the cube and says, "and then it suddenly gets solved" then I show them the solved cube =D

Then there are the people who want to sound as if they could if they liked. They say: "I don't have the patience to solve those."
Then I go: "Patience? It takes less than 20 seconds!"

Okay, I liked that lol xD I should use that
