Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

[krazedkat]

Isn't it amazing that everybody knows SOMEONE who can solve it in x seconds. x being about 1-10 XD...



During Accounting:
*Solving it using Cubetimer*
One second in:
Person behind me: You didn't get the world record.
Me (still solving): Idiot... The world record is about 7 seconds, NOT one.
PBM: Yeah right, my friend can do it in like .5 seconds.
Me: Impossible
PBM: NO!
*finishes with about 20 second time*
PBM: OMFG! That was so slow!
Other person: Are you asian?
Me: Do I look asian?
OP: No
Me: Next time think for a second
My friend: YOU SUCK! I've seen you do it better than that! (He always does that as a joke)
I continue to do another solve
PBM: You suck at this
Me: Shut the **** up...

I punch my friends when they tell me that. Lol. It's so frustrating.

My friend was just joking. He witnessed one of my sub 15s last year XP...

@ an afternoon tv show..

a guy brags that he can solve the cube in less than 30 sec.
then the host said that he would give him a 10,000 pesos(Philippines) if he can do that

then the guy solves...
after 22 sec, he drops the cube on the table..

they look around the 5 sides of the cube (except the one facing the table)
and 5 sides of the cubes are solved...

but the audience are still quiet...

.
..
...
waiting for the last side...

"I got 3 or 4 sides once I can't remember." (3 possible....4?? not so much)

"what is your secret?" then I reply, "Ok, I'll tell you once. The only thing you have to do.....is match the colors up." "Oh %$#@ you!!"

Or I'll have my my V7 in my hands. "How do you solve that thing?" I reply as if everyone knew, "oh, you just match the colors up *shrug*" " Oh %$#@ you!!"

 

[jdouglasusn]

I was talking to someone who thought there was some sort of a cheat. They thought you did the same sequence of moves over and over. He was like, 'It's left up, right sideways, top over. And then you do it again.'

Clearly that person isn't only a non-cuber, but stupid.

Haha, I've heard diagonal before.

This diagonal comment make me chuckle out loud.

I was like "I'm not even going to say anything about that..." and walked away.

ROFL

 

[ProfilesRubiks]

the thing i hate the most, is when i have a puzzle that pops often, ex : v6, megaminx, is when it DOES pop, at the end i fix it and people are like STOP CHEATING i hate that.....
and even after it pops i explain that at the end i might have put the peice back in wrong,then when they see me take it out, they partially think i'm still cheating

 

[Shmekekey]

I was in a back room of the orchestra room with some of my friends because we had a sub, and she went back there while i was solving 7x7, and she tried to tell me that i was doing it wrong -.-

I also had a friend that would try to mess with me by saying "twist it. turn it. BOP IT!" :]

 

[Gollum999]

Sometimes when I'm solving my V7, one of the pieces will pop, and somebody will yell out "you broke it!" Then I just pop it back in.

Also, one time I tried to explain to a friend the concept of solving by layers, and he was like "oh, I thought that if you solved one color the rest would automatically be solved." :fp

 

[gpt_kibutz]

hey, I showed this guy a blindfold video. He wasn't amazed, because he said that people do blindfold by remembering with the hands (i guess he tought blind was some kind of braille or sth) lol

 

[PlutoCuber]

I can only solve 3 sides. WTF LMAO LOL OMFG ROFL!!!!!!!!

 

[miniGOINGS]

Do M' U M' U M' U2 M U M U M U2... BAM! 3 sides solved.

Yeah, you can solve only 3 sides, but if you can solve three sides, you're probably good enough to solve the whole thing.

If they brag about 4+ sides, then it is obvious that they are lying.

 

[Shortey]

I have gotten:

"I'm going to mess it up so good that you can't solve it"

*I use a little more than 20 seconds on the cube* "Did I mess it nicely?"

"Do you count them?"

"Isn't there like 2 kind of moves you can do so the cube gets solved?"

 

[Shnishiguh]

I show them an algorithm, like R U R' U', and show them that if you repeat it enough times, the cube will solve itself from a solved state.
They reply with,
"So if the cube is messed up, if I just do this, it will be solved?"
or
"Cheater"

Mhm, after 1 I don't believe them, but it is possible to solve 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 sides. Just pointing that out.

EDIT: Oh crap, i thought it said layers. :fp to myself
