Did you tell them that you actually have videos of you doing BLD? And you do have lots of subscribers on YouTube.

Why are people so attracted to fakes? Gah, the psychology...
And no I didn't tell them about youtube but I think doing a real blindsolve got the point across

How is that possible that I can't see this thread on the main page, where I always find threads with the most recent posts?

They changed it so they could see the pages they preferred and they thought were more important on their front page. I say we should petition

When telling people about trying BLD solves I get "How do you know when to stop?" a lot, it took me a while to understand why they would even ask that.

They probably think we do the same thing over and over (devils algorithm). Some people need to think about it before they say how do you know when to stop lol

Finally got asked the classic question "how long have you been working on that?" when I was doing my 7x7 in the line at the bank.
They seem to be assuming that I've never been able to solve it. If they were cubers they'd be asking how long I'd been practicing the thing.

You should say, "Wow, 40 years... you've got some perseverence! I'm not that patient so I get frustrated if it takes me longer than [insert bad time here] seconds!"

*scrambling a cube for me*
No, wait, 30 turns is too easy for you, let me do at least 100 turns so it is some challenge.

They always think you're watching and memorizing their scramble, when you're just trying to make sure they're not going to explode your main or run off with it...

I tell my dad I got a 13.34. He says "on what? 4x4?" I laugh say no 3x3. He is like you are slow. I'm laughing, 13 seconds is half of the WR.

Today I got a cube that has Japanese color scheme. I showed a family member the cube and said " Look the color scheme is different it is called the Japanese color scheme " they said "yeah so. you still solve it the same right?" I said "Well no. It messes a lot people up to use this color scheme." they said "That must be why the Asians are so fast they have there own color scheme" I just walked away.

That's good. They did you a favour. Now you can go buy a real speedcube. (Ok, I feel bad for you that someone broke your cube but honestly, you now have a good reason to get an even better cube.)
