Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

Talking to a cuber, his friends skates in and inspects our GuHongs
"Oh, crappy Chinese cubes.. so loose and with stickers? I can get sturdier and face-printed cubes for $2 at *(insert cheap toy store name).
"Trust us, this cube is probably the best there is, and the crappy one is the one you mention. Period. "
"what do you know? I can solve it in 2 minutes!!"

After 2 minutes of arguing, he grabs to cube to "show us". 5 minutes later he gives up.. on headlights OLL :P
that is a great story. i hate it when people think that they know more than you do about cubing. my friends at school know me as the cuber at school yet some of the ones i am "mentoring" argue "no THAT is pll and THIS is oll" so stubborn...
 
I fail to see how the "Justin Bieber can solve a Rubik's Cube!" is funny... I mean... It's like saying... Feliks Zemdegs can solve a Rubik's Cube! It's just a fact.
 
"What an ace" according to google translate.

Basically RWJ was reviewing some video and then pointed out that some polish dude commented "co za asy" on it.

A year later, a bunch of wannabes still think it's funny to repost it.
 
My friends actually has quite good understanding in cubing (I force them to), so they never told me I cheat. Well once a friend asked if I had cheats in my wallet (kept some algs i didn't know there), but I did it without to show her. But a few days ago, I got my first DIY, and one of my friends started to tell everyone I used a cheat cube, after I had taken it apart and showed him the differences. I said to him that no one uses a Rubik's branded (didn't mention the difference between storebought and DIY, he wouldn't understand), and he was still like "It's kinda like cheating" :fp

I also got my first 4x4 the same day, and one of my friends said, very sarcastic, good luck with that. She was like :eek: when I showed it after a solve that took almost an hour, as I only did a few moves every now and then, and I didn't even know the Parities, so I had to look them up. Was actually quite fun.
 
This really isn't really a "darndest" thing but today when i was going to my bus to get back home, I saw some 8th grader who seemed to have a Maru 4x4 or something (small 4x4 with shiny stickers made it look like a Maru), too bad I didn't get his name...
Still, its nice that my school has cubers other than myself.

I' the fastest cuber at my school even though i only average like 25. One kid is jealous. He kicked me just cause i asked what method he used.
