[cjp66]

174. I bet my 8 year old could do that, she's very smart (so my kids are morons then?)

 

[Alpha Shenron]

175) Teacher: "Hey you're gonna put away your crack cube!"

That one made me laugh.

 

[KubeKid73]

What? Lol.

 

[byu]

176) (I perform a sub-20 solve) I heard the world record is like, 4 minutes for that thing. You should be the world record holder.

 

[KubeKid73]

Lol. Someone said to me:
177. There's like a competition like once a year, you should go.
XP I would get murdered (At cubing.) if I ever went to one.

 

[byu]

178. Can you solve it blindfolded?

I respond Yes

179. No you can't! Show me.

I do it, and get sub-3

180. Wow, do the stickers feel different or something? (I get this one a lot)

I say No

181. Then how do you do it?

I say that I memorize it

182. That's impossible

 

[Lord Voldemort]

183. Whoa! Is that a 7 sided one? (talking about 7x7x7)

 

[byu]

184. (looks at 4x4) Is that one harder than the normal one?

 

[aukrainea]

24: Yeah yeah... I could solve it.. ( U2 is done ) ...... YAY I DONE IT IN 3 Seconds!!!!

 

[Deleted member 2864]

lol... you people make noncubists look dumb... you guys probably at one point were noncubers so I wouldn't insult them... I don't think there's anything wrong with not being determined to decode a plastic toy... But I can get annoyed when they say this though:

185. (after I attempt to teach them) Hand me it overnight and I'll figure out how to solve it on my own! I refuse then they go JERK!
186. (fake turning the cube vigorously) yes!!!! I'm doing it!!!

 

[Unknown]

185. I've solved my cube at a birthday party of a friend. (sub-30)
Someone then take my cube, run around showing it to everybody and shout: "OH MY GOD! THIS GUY SOLVED THIS THING! HE TURNS IT LIKE A MACHINE!"

 

[James Kobel]

186.(Does 1 turn and pops whole cube) Ha, I know how you do it, you just dismatle it to make it look solved.
187.Wow! You should do that for Anna Rubik.
188.Ha, you are sooo slow, I bet I could do that in like, a second(pops cube)

 

[chrypton1]

189. I almost solved the cube once, there was only one piece(edge piece) flipped the other way! (Impossible)

 

[James Kobel]

190.You know that if you solve 3 sides the other 3 will automatically be solved?
Me: (misorients 2 opposite edges)Not really...

 

[KubeKid73]

200. I'm going to teach you how to solve it without seeing. I'll scramble it and you solve it. (turns once) (I solve) (turns twice) (I solve) etc.

 

[Gparker]

201. you know youtube taught me how to solve 2 sides of that, but i forgot how to solve the rest of them

haha that happend today

 

[krazedkat]

202) You're still not even CLOSE to as smart as me... (You wish )

203. A dialogue that, unfortunately, I've heard far too often:
n00b: Are you doing that blindfolded?!!?!?
Me: Um... yeah... (see the gray thing covering my eyes? That's called a blindfold, ladies and gentlemen.)
n00b: How do you do it?
Me: I memorize the cube, and then solve it. (Another explanation is saying that I memorize the orientations and permutations of the cube using visual memo, and then use some restrictive algorithms to solve it - they generally suddenly realize they had something important to do after I begin saying that)
n00b: How do you know when to stop?
Me:... Um... I *memorized* it....

 

[Sa967St]

n00b: How do you know when to stop?

I hear that ALL the time! They appearantly think you do the same move over and over again until its solved.

 

[not_kevin]

n00b: How do you know when to stop?

I hear that ALL the time! They appearantly think you do the same move over and over again until its solved.

Well, obviously, we either:
1) set it up, and therefore are cheating,
2) looked at it during the memorization phase, and therefore are cheating,
3) move our fingers too fast, and therefore aren't human, or
4) our cubes are too "slippery", and therefore aren't legal.
