Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

[ZamHalen]

Other things that people tell me:
-hey gheuy pull out the square.(you need to be close to mexico to get it)
-I haven't seen him solve it in over a minute...wow ____ you need to get a life (that was my bio teacher)
-(buddy of first guy mentioned)I could solve that thing in like 5 seconds watch i'm gonna bring mine.

 

[(R)]

This guy in my latin sees me doing 4x4 and says dude, when you're done, let me solve it. I scramble and give to him. He looks at it for ten minutes turning it exactly 3 times and says dude I don't know how, I thought I knew :fp

 

[Cyrus C.]

A person I was teaching 2x2 (he's really good almost sub-20 with fridrich in about 2 days), He couldn't say permutation so now he calls it permutity.

 

[fundash]

this has happened a few times already...

Me: *does 45~50 second solve*
Them: WOW!!! WhAtZ uR RecorDz mAn!?!!?!?!?
Me: 31.44
Them: minutes?
Me: :fp

 

[spunkymp4]

Non-cuber: Ok, how do I get this red (corner piece) over here (edge)?
Me: You can't, its impossible.
NC: Liar!!!! *walks away*

Haha. Hey man you're in my time range. Care to join the club of newb and suck?

Situation: playing with my 3x3x3 on the bus.

-Guy: whoooooa, that's a miracle, how did you do that?!
-Me: Well, there are methods to solve it, and with a bit of patience...
-Guy: I thought you have to be retarded to do it.
-Me: What?
-Guy: Nah... *turns his face to the window*

Agreed

 

[Colton7909]

Me: (Just solved my rubik's cube)
Them: How did you do that?
Me: It came with instructions
Them: oh
-
Me: (practicing Fridrich f2l a few days after learning it)
Them: don't you usually solve it faster than that?
Me: I'm learning a new method
Them: sure (sarcasm)
Me: :fp

What non-cubers always say:

"I solved it once a long time ago."
"I used to peel the stickers off."
"Don't you just do this one pattern."
"Isn't there a lot of math involved?"
"Teach me how to solve it really quick."

 

[Ranzha]

This is somewhat off-topic (even in an off-topic thread), but my friend (who cubes) said she knows notation in a sequence of numbers, and she couldn't tell me exactly how she did it.
But she CAN solve the cube. I've watched her many times, but many of those times she's too lazy to do LL and she hands it to me XD.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

After getting me DIY
Kid: Hey, lemme see that. *turns it* WTF, it's so effing LOOSE.
Me:Special Brand
Kid:Which
Meo It Yourself
Kid:...Do what?

After selling my DIY for 35 dollars D )
People:Hey, where's your Rubik's CUbe
Meun have it
People:WHY?!?!?!?!??! (Believe it or not, those ? and ! are barely exaggerated )
Me:Sold it. 35 dollars
One Stupid Kid: Because you suck at it. (I told a mom joke to this guy)
Other dude: WHAT?! DAMN.
Friend:You made like twice profit!!

 

[dunpeal2064]

I was sitting on the city bus and someone was kind of watching me... and like 10 seconds after i solve it and I'm sitting there holding it, he looks over and asks me "have you ever been able to solve that thing?"

what kind of DIY?

 

[curious]

(Them)- 'Can you move a corne piece into an edge position.
(Me)- 'NO'

I have also heard people say that there is 1 set of moves that you repeat over and over again to solve it.

 

[TioMario]

I was playing with my old 3x3 (is quite loose) when:
Dude: Hey, let me see that
Me: Here *gives the cube*
Dude: *checks it up and pops up an edge* Ahá, I knew it!
Me: what?
Dude: it can be disassembled, you are a fake... cheater *walks away*

 

[MichaelP.]

Science Teacher sees me solve is 25 seconds "Oh, nicely done, the algorithm (SINGULAR!!!!) I came up with a long time ago was way to complicated. I've forgotten it.

Me: *Solves it again, walks away*

FACEPALM

 

[Shmekekey]

me: *solving 3x3 during lunch break*
manager: Sooo. How do you reset it?
me: *blink blink* the timer? Just push the "reset" button?
manager: Noooo. The cube.
me: :fp

 

[LarsN]

client: (notice me solving at OLL) Did you solve it?
Me: (finishing U-perm) Now I did (shows the solved cube)
client: Nah, you didn't start it today then. (walks away)

Random person: you're doing that very fast!
Me: yes, I've practised a lot.
Random person: Oh, I bet you're practising to be as fast as that guy who was on national tv.
Me: Uhm ... yea ... that was me.

The last one happened to me at least five times

 

[Overtime]

NC scrambles
Me: *Lose a piece halfway through f2l* where did it go?
NC: I think we stumped him!
Me: *still finishes solve under a minute*
NC: oh D:

I'm still learning and am sub 1 min, and my look ahead isn't that great this happens sometimes
