Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

Had my 2x2
"DUde that's so easy, even I can solve that and I can't solve a regular Rubik's Cube."
*I set up T Perm*
Me: Here, solve it then.
Him:Look you already set up 3 faces for me!
Me:Yeah, should be pretty damn easy.
Him:*messes it up* Okay, I can't do it dude.
Me:Kids.
 
Non-cuber 1: Let me scramble it. I'll do a hard one.
Non-cuber 2: It doesn't matter. They can solve any puzzle using logarithms.
Me (5 seconds later (all he's doing is variations of R, R', U, U'): You're scrambling it horribly.
Non-cuber 1: Oh yeah? *starts using L and L'*
Non-cuber 2: It still doesn't matter. He's memorized all the logarithms. He knows how to turn it for every combination of stickers.
 
Tonight, I was at a basketball game with mah cube.
I was drilling memo for blind, and the people sitting behind me were muttering things to themselves like "Oh, he can't do it. That thing's stumped him." After a good memo of 50 seconds (hey, it's good for me anyway), I looked up, put the cube under my knees--I was sitting on bleachers and that was the best obstruction of view available--and I started solving. Ended with 1:43.86. Great solve. They were all, "Man, that took FOREVER. If you're gonna do it, do it right!"
So I set up a U-perm, hand one of them the cube, and I instruct him to solve it.
He's failing to solve it (as expected, to be honest), and his girlfriend next to him's all, "Give me that!"
She takes it, does the U-perm, and hands it back, solved. I was astonished, shook her hand, and had to leave.
Unfortunately, I didn't catch a name. What a shame.

Lol, that's awesome!
 
So today my friend was looking through my phone and reading some of my text messages. She comes across a few from my other friend who cubes and reads them out loud. She happens to see one where he is talking about re-learning some PLLs and also learning some new OLLs. Then she goes to the next text which has AUF in it. Oblivious, she makes a sarcastic comment about how intense we are that we even made up our own abbreviations for everything. Sad thing is I tried to teach her how to cube before and used PLL and OLL and also showed her sheets from the internet that used those abbreviations.
 
At school I let see my V-Cube 7 and 4x4 cube.
A young said, "Can I see one."
And he said: "eey this is a 7x7."
another boy said, "I do nothing understand of the cubes."
The teacher said, "Me too."

A few days later I had a magic and with a V-Cube 5. One girl said: "The cube you still have al."
My teacher say the same.
I said, "No that's a 7x7"
And later she said: "Can you do the Magic if it is scrambled?"
I said, "No, they should not be scrambled."

She can solve a 3x3 and 2x2 (LBL).
 
I taught my brother how to solve the magic, and he learned it really fast, which caught me off guard, but he refuses to even try and solve a 3x3. His excuse is he doesn't want to be stared at (which is actually quite valid, considering that he hates large crowds).
 
When I started solving at school, I would always get kids watching that say stuff like
"Wait, you're not finished! So you cant do it!" (right after oll)
than
"You are such an idiot! You got really close and then you just screwed it up!"(during pll)
than
"Oh... never mind"(after pll)

"Lets see you do it so you can call me an idiot again"
 
Me: *walking to get lunch at school, 1h solving, looked away cause I just started an algorithm*
Teacher: Wow! One handed and you're not even looking! That must take some skill!
Me: *solve*
Teacher pretty much crapped his pants.

I'm just solving during class when the teacher's writing a lot on the board. Random girl behind me, "How many times have you solved that, anyway?" Best friend: "OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND!!!!" All three of us got detention, but it was funny as hell.
 
Over the summer, I went to the park with both my 3x3 and 4x4 and some little kids saw me solving them (maybe 4 and 5 years old). So they come over to me and ask me to do more magic tricks for them.

Usually that would be a complete facepalm but since they were little kids it was pretty funny.
 
Also, this is a story about when I was a non-cuber, probably second grade. I was really into making comics at that age (but only ones with one issue). And a few weeks ago, I was looking through some old stuff and found a comic I made. It basically was the part in Superman before Krypton exploded. anyway, it was everybody had superpowers, but they had to work for it. What did I choose? They had to solve a Rubik's Cube. And I don't even think that I picked a cube up beforehand.
 
I was sitting in the college cafeteria solving my megaminx yesterday when this group of people behind my table start staring and commenting how I'd never be able to solve it. I pretty much ignored them. A minute later, I finished the last layer and pretty much slammed my timer. This guy looked at the solved minx, and choked on his ginger lemon so hard that it came out of his nose. Then, he rushed over to my table and was like: wtfwtfwtfwt... You solved it! You actually effing solved! wtf! Dude! You're a effing genius! F f f! I can't believe my effing eyes! How the eff did you do it? Eff man! *picks up minx and observes it* eff! This thing is effing crazy! It's got 12 effing faces! ... Etc etc etc... He went on for the next 5 minutes and then, we just decided to leave as his swearing and hyper - ness was attracting too much attention...

But seriously, I haven't heard anyone say f*** so many times. Not even russel peters.
