Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

[Ranzha]

Today, I was solving in the last few minutes of PE before lunch, since we get lots of free time. I was at a table, my friends watching my times, and one of my friend's friends walks over and says, "You can't solve that! You're just mixing it up!"
I finish OLL, and he says, "See, you got the yellow wrong! Look at the sides!"
I do as he says, recognise a T-perm, and look him straight in the face, and say, "If I couldn't solve it," then doing the T-perm while staring at him, "could I do this?"
I show him the solved cube, and he backs away, horrified.

Even MORE win!
I'm getting amused and irritated whenever I have to pull of PLL in public. I don't mean finger-tricking exercise, but after OLLs.
"YOU MESSED IT UP MAN!"

Winsauce, definitely.
I can't believe I'm going to say it, but...
STAGED "Non-cubers say the darndest things!" REINACTMENT!

You're just lucky you did that T perm properly.

Not really. T Perm lovers can do it behind their head, which is what his avie can do.

I can do it maybe 12 times in a row, in a BLD solve. And so can loads of other people.

I just forgot. I have another story
My friend isn't a good cuber, but can solve one side of the 2x2x2.
"Mine can cut corners REALLY good"
If you had experience or knowledge of the Ice Cube, then you know what i mean.

I'm kinda curious why you quoted and said something that doesn't really have anything to do with what is quoted.

And yes i know exactly what you mean. They cut corners like a fat kid needs a twinky.

Me: Dude, I just got a sub 15 avg 3x3
Friend: Thats nothin, I just solved the cube in 3.12 seconds
Me: You mean minutes?
Friend: No years... Of course I mean seconds.
Me: And then you woke up...
Friend: lol yep

Did you really sub-15?

Yup
3 13's, a 15, and a 14...

I dont expect to ever do that good again.

 

[Charybdis]

Me and my friend were sat cubing once, like just sat in a class. And this kid (who we hate as it is) comes and says
'OMG YOUVE GOT MATCHING CUBES, HOW SAD!'
*looks at friend*
*Both burst out laughing*

Started to hang out with these random people watching an anime called "Club to Death Angel" or something in the multi-purpose-room of my dorm.

I got bored with the anime so i started doing some solves.

Later I was talking to them about cubing and mentioned that Haiyan can solve BLD in 35 seconds. A girl there who had been watching me solve said something like, "but at that point it's all muscle memory right". The first thing I said was, "Well, yes -". She cut me off right there and said, "Oh so he's just good enough to know when to stop".

:fp

I was going to say, "Well, yes some of the moves he does have been committed to muscle memory, but he knows hundreds of moves that must be used in the correct order and from the correct angle depending on the scramble. It takes years of skill building and practice."

I think she got the impression from my turning speed that I was doing the same thing over and over for each solve.

:fp

I thought she was kind of cute, but being that daft is a turn off.

My friends call the Rubiks Magic "Roti Canai", a Malaysian food.
Its just so standard in Malaysia, even some cubers call it Roti Canai.

i don't get it, i can do all the algorithms i know behind my back, and i'm a noob

I was at my friends house and his cousin was there. I happen to have brought my 3x3 and 4x4. I solve the 3x3 in about 22 seconds. Go back to playing video games. His cousin finds my 4x4 and says, "Oh, is that a double one?" I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

you never know, you might do it from the wrong angle Always have to be careful before owning someone. Just like I said "I don't think Faz will get near WR for 5x5"

>_> I inspected the cube and recognised the PLL.... I'm so used to doing edges BLD that it's almost always a guarantee of a solved cube. :fp Sometimes I wish I could memo BLD in 45 seconds.

LOL if that's a joke
What I was saying is that she probably liked you and pretended to be stupid in the hope it would start a conversation that would eventually end up with the two of you going out, getting married, and having 39 children all because of an acting maneuver because of the cube.
jk but she probably likes you

Faz got a 1:07.61 single which is .36 from the world record and got like a 1:18 average

"Do you scramble it the same way every time?"

I get that one a lot for some reason.

"You just do the same thing over and over"
"HEY! Don't look!"
