Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

on my first day at a new school, i had my mini type c with me at lunch. some people (and by that like 20) start crowding around me watching me solve it. then a guy takes and starts scrambling it when an edge falls out and everybody starts yelling at him like he killed somebody. :P

also, whenever i would solve it, they would all run away screaming "HE DID ITTT!!11!!!11ELEVEN!! ZOMG!!!!!" and then they would all run back and do it again.

Everyone at my school used to do this all the time the first month or two. Then like 10 of them decided they wanted to learn how to solve them and now everyone is pretty much used to the 3x3x3 so they don't even say anything anymore. I might bring in my megaminx soon just so I can laugh at people's reactions.

Some of the kids in my school slow clap while I'm solving... or chant "Go! Go! Go! Go!"....
I was doing a bld solve in school today when one of my cuber friends comes up to me when I start to take the blindfold off and says "oooohh soo close. just had those UR and DL edges misoriented." So, I orinet those two edges than stop my solve. When I look at the cube, I see that those two edges were now misoriented, and I was right. As a crowd forms around me to see my finished cube, he reiterates "oooohh soo close. just had those UR and DL edges misoriented." and the kids see me fail. grr.

Girlfriend: Go grab your triangle cube.
Me: But it's not a cube.
Girlfriend: Go grab your triangle thing then.
Me: It's not a triangle, it's three dimensional.
Girlfriend: Just go grab it!
Me: It's a pyramid and it's called a "Pyraminx".

Kinda unnessecary.
 
I hate it when they say that you can't solve it under a specific time, and start counting up themselves. Usually they count faster than usual TT__TT

This. A girl in my school "counted" 68 seconds for my solve.
I'm sub-30. I'm not THAT bad.

At least she admitted that she usually counts "a little too fast".
 
While scrambling my cube
"Oh no we cant have this, too many white pieces together. Now the reds are grouped. Give me a sec, Ill get it fully mixed up, Then I wanna see you Fix it. When you mix it up yourself, you cheat somehow."

I was solving the last layer, at OLL. Some guy sitting under an apartment looks at his friends and then said to me. "Hey! I'll give you 5 minutes to solve that right now!"

One time, I had just made it too PLL and someone said, "I'll give you 5 bucks if you can finish it with your eyes closed."

lol i saw a scrambled cube in the room of one of my friends.
I took an edge out, flipped it, and put it back! then +I said: no one can solve this. even the master of Rubik's cube can't!

I actually got a free 4x4 because of this, lol. It was the display at a shop in a mall, and I picked it up and started solving it, but got to the end and a corner was twisted.
I told the owner it was broken, and he said I could have it because he "I dropped it a while back, guess it didn't go back right."

lol

My chiropractor is funny the other day i was getting acupuncture and i had my square 1 with me and he said "is that like some new kind" i simply shook my head and noded as i was leaving he said "you know the regular one like a 6 year old can solve it in under a minute isnt that amazing!" again i just sort of ignore the question. 2 days later i brought my 3x3 in and was solving it and he was all freaked out and took a recording of it to show his kids later!

My foot doctor is hilarious every time i bring a cube in no matter what one (im in there a lot) he always says " so if there is an optimal solution or way to solve it that will be the fastest is there a way to scramble it up so that it is the hardest to solve" i never really sure how to answer i always just say yeah sure. his response is always something to the likes of "you should figure that out soon" its so funny

If you live in america you all know what high school football players are like (usually stupid and dimwitted). I being a part of my football team bring my cube to school and the football players will get all excited and cheering me on and "let me scramble it next" stuff like that and sometimes i dont want them to pop it because it has happened before but the things they do i had one who i let borrow for literally 2.5 hours and he finally came back and said " i cant do it how the hell do you do it so fast" my response is always practice

I get whats the secret to the cube ALL THE TIME!!!! so annoying!

I will be repeating a PLL over and over to get faster and people will say stuff like holy crap did you just solve it!!!!!

I will pop my cube or just messing with it and take it apart a little and get "thats how you solve it you cheat" one of the worst thing i hear so annoying!

Lastly (for now i have sooooo many to tell) I had one Wrestler who said the stupid i just take the stickers off and i solved it in sub 30 and the kid said you must be cheating or something how is it possible and i told him practice he said no that cant be in you must just be taking the stickers off real fats and putting them back on!!!! really in less then 30 seconds are you kidding me (the people i have to hang out with SOOOO LAME!!!!!!) lol i have many more but for now this is fine haha
 
Finally, a non cuber with a brain!
I was solving my megaminx in class and another teacher came in, so my teacher showed him it. The other teacher said that that is cool to solve it that fast, but all it is is memorizing things from the computer. He was impressed however when I said I never used a guide for megaminx. Which really still isnt that impressive, but I was happy to see someone who wasn't utterly amazed.
 
You have no idea how many times guys have come up to me and said " Wow your really good with your hands ." Who would have thought that cubing would be a way to get guys O_o lol. Except for the creepy ones who think they can come sit with me and that i would just love to teach them how to solve it !

That's honestly really creepy haha. I'm glad guys have never come up to me and said that honestly I'd just feel so weird. It's almost like a really bad pick up line lol.
