Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

[FatBoyXPC]

While walking down the hall or whatever, and usually flipping pretty quick:

"Have you figured that thing out yet?"

Nope, thank you for that sunshine, I'm only practicing my dexterity.

 

[nlCuber22]

watch Tyson Mao doing BLD on Anderson Cooper 360.
"I didn't understand a word you said."
:fp

as for me,
when I'm doing a solve:
"You're STILL figuring that thing out?"

Most people I know actually know my averages tho

 

[PEZenfuego]

Me: I'm really slow at blind cubing.

My friend: But you're really fast at speed solving (well I'm not but he seems to think so).

Me: I don't use the same method.

My friend: You should use the same method, you'd be faster.

He must think I'm a moron...

Like, 2 years ago I was learning and watching the 3x3 tutorial. Then my sister saw and said its not "solving" if you use algorithms and that's "cheating". When I would solve it in front of people, my sister would come up from behind and say "He's cheating, he had someone else teach him with these codes that make you cheat. It's only considered "solving" if you learned it yourself. The world record has to be done with no codes'.:fp

That is funny...I had someone say something similar, I pulled out the sheet of paper with all the "codes" and said...here if it's so easy...learn them and solve it...after they looked over the paper for about oh...30 seconds they said nothing and walked away. :fp

"That thing makes you smarter right?"

I gotta use that now.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

"Dude, that's impossible."
"No it isn't, I can do it..."
"But you memorize how it was scrambled and then reversed those moves..."
"No I didn't, you scrambled it."
"Wait, you're right. So what's the secret? You peeled off the stickers while turning real fast so I can't see it?"
"You want me to teach you?"
"No, I just want to know how you do it..."
"Then I'd have to teach you..."
"You know what? I'm gonna scramble it now, and you're gonna solve it real slowly."
*solves with about 1 tps*
"THAT WASN'T SLOW!"
"Ya it was, I can do 4 times as fast on good days..."
"So it IS possible!?"
"Orly?"

Wow lol

LOL! Awesome.
Emailed to some friends who hate them.

 

[jave]

"Damn, I can't solve that even if you gave my five days!"

*30 sec later*

"Bah, I'd do it in 5 secs!"

 

[SkateTracker]

"WOAH, what the crap man, you must be like, a genius or something."

"You have no life/way too much time on your hands!"

"You must be great at math." (I hate this one nearly as much as I hate math)

This one's my favorite... haha.

"Are you... human? Sorry, stupid question... of course you're not. So, how's life on "Planet Cube" or where ever you came from?"

 

[gyc6001]

"I guess your math is very good, aren't you?"

"Do you use some FORMULA to solve it?"

"I can't solve it even you gave me a year!"

very annoying...

"The end result? You look like a huge douche and don't get laid."

Umm...

 

[Sa967St]

things I've heard in the last two days:

"Are you in IB?"
"You must be good at video games..."
"How Asian are you?"
"I can't even turn it that fast"
"Do you know ALL the algorithms?"
"Yours turns nicer than mine, isn't that cheating?"
"Can I videotape you solving it and put it on YouTube?"

 

[miniGOINGS]

"How Asian are you?"

I sometimes get "I didn't know you were Asian...".

 

[cooldayr]

i get are you a robot
buy a 10x10
get a life
you waste your money
brain steriods
and the weird one, trying that would give me aids
