Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

aaaah the amount of sub 10 solves I've had from people who count slowly.

On the subject of counting, since us speedcubers use timers so often, I figured we'd have pretty good accuracy in measuring short lengths of time in our head. I managed a 10.17 average of 5 counting to ten with my eyes closed. I got a 10.01 on my first try xD

Being in band and tapping my toes to keep time i started the inspection timer and got my foot in sync with it then started with my eyes closed and stopped at 10, but i got around a 9.4 average for some reason. Maybe it's because the beats per minute in band is much more than 60. I agree you should make a thread on this.
 
Wow...

So today, a guy in my band class comes up to me and shows me his rubiks brand cube that he got over the week end because he saw me solving the cube since school started and today in band, i go do you want me to solve it? and he rolls his shoulders like "idk" and he hands it to this other guy that can also solve it (only 3 people in my school can solve it and all 3 including me are in my band class) so the guy that can solve it in like 1:30, well hes a hardcore N00B at it and uses the begginers method to solve it and does not use ANY finger tricks. So any way, he hands it to him and i go wtf i can solve faster than him?! and he goes "whatever he is WAY faster than you" (i average 29 seconds) and i go :fp:fp:fp:fp:fp:fp:fp:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: WTFFFF!!!!!!!! and me and him are no longer friends anymore! that was THE MOST STUPID thing i have EVER heard in my cubing career.... :mad: Im about to order a dayan zhanchi stickerd and when i bring that to school people will be like "HOLY **** WHAT IS THAT LET ME SEE IT OMG"
same applys for my mirror cube.... smh :mad::mad::mad:

Your reaction was a bit immature...It doesn't matter what method he uses or if he doesn't use fingertricks. What if he's just not a dedicated speedcuber like most of us? Let the kid have the satisfaction of solving the cube. It's a nice a feeling we all should have the opportunity to enjoy.

Edit: Yes, don't get arrogant. That's the number one mistake you can make in life. It completely transcends cubing.
 
Friend: "Is the 4x4 easier than the 3x3?"
Me: what do you think?
Friend: well it's smaller, so yeah it probably is.
Me: Wait you mean the 2x2?
Friend: no the one with 4 stickers on each side.
Me: :fp:fp:fp:fp
