Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

I hate when people say about getting "Rubik's" cubes for ONLY ONE DOLLAR(they make it sound SO epic) at the Dollar Store.

Good luck getting a time under a minute with that POS.
Good luck not ticking people off with the obnoxious loudness of that POS.
Good luck getting 1 algorithm in before *POP!*, with that POS.
Good luck doing blah blah blah you get my point it's a piece of sh*t.

"I bet you cant do it in under a minute"

"I bet I can" (i averaged like 30 at this time)

"ok, let me time you, ill count"

*starts counting and i have no inspection*

"1 2 3"

by this time, about 1 second has passed

"4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20"

about 4 seconds have passed

"21 22.....57 58 59 OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU DIDNT DO IT!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH"

by this time, about 15 seconds have passed

why the hell cant people count seconds properly

i usually average 7 when people are counting for me

i can solve one face in under 80 moves.

Lol. I could do the whole damn thing with those many turns. Oh and, u2 would 1 move lol.

My family isn't very good at english, so they would ask me "Can you puzzle this?"

We may be smart because of other causes, but cube-solving isn't on my list.

A 70x80 is a rectangle, I'd say.

They say a lot of things when you mention lubricating cubes.

Ok, so I just read an article on the whole God's number thingy, and here's a comment someone made on it:

"This is no big surprise. Back in college in the early 80's I was taught a series of moves that always solves the cube. Seriously tho, with this method, it doesn't matter what the pattern is to begin with, you never change that pattern of moves, and it always solves the cube. It couldn't have been much more than 20 moves, because it was very simple to learn - and its a VERY quick way to solve the Rubic's cube, limited only by how fast you can move your hands and fingers."
:fp:confused:

That explains it. He isn't even talking about Rubik's cubes.

When I was at Cameron's house, we went to eat at In N Out, we attratced a crowd (duh), and a man actualy stopped to ask questions.
Actually, he was asking intelligent questions, instead of the usual "I PEEL TEH STICKAZ"

Yeah lol, dont we all hate that:

1- I peel the stickers
2- I take it apart and make it back in solved state
3- I managed to solve 4 sides but thats the farthest i got (epic failure of nonsense and lack of honesty.)

those are the 3 mos common lame excuses i get... why doesnt anyone simply say: oh wow...

I can't stand it either when people see me with cubes and are like "Oh I peel the stickers." How do I respond to that? "Oh, well I'm actually smart, so I just solve it."

R2 U2 R2 U2 R2 U2 - Not that I really believe them though.

I can't believe I just read all 122 pages. This has to be the best topic I've ever seen on a forum.

I've never cubed in public so I can't join the talk
