Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

Things are getting off topic, we should take this elsewhere. It just pees me off when people try to mask the facts to keeps things exclusive to their own petty benefit. Sorry for the rant, I just think we should all be proud of ourselves without worrying about what others think...

Yep, just proved you still don't get what I was saying.

anyway...

Today I was performing in the Talent Show (of course solving the cube). I got a 14 second solve two-handed and a 35 second solve one-handed. My mom said that she heard one girl call me a studmuffin :D
 
I feel kind of flattered whenever people tell me I'm amazing at cubing. A lot of times people will say something like, "Are there competitions for that? You should go, you'd totally win a world record or something!" And I just tell them I'm really not all that great, but of course they don't believe me, which is fine.
 
(watching me do virtual 5x5, aside to someone else, quietly)

"...you know, it's just a trick. You do something over and over again and the thing practically solves itself..."
 
people at my school are sad, I got 2 friends cubing, another learning, and half the people ( even though they see me get sub 30 solves) say I take the stickers off, the others say oh you got do to those algsorthisms ( i know how its speeled thats what they say, in a funny voice too) and say ok so hes got his square root of pie jah ur gonna need that, and then some others just smack cubes out of my hand ( and splayed open corner piece of guhong, and another broke the core on my nice c4y diy which is even worse, and didnt even pay me back, but we have a sub 10er in highschool and thats cool
 
a little of topic but a fun game to play with noobs is a "noob team solve" similar to blind team solve but you can't use cube notation to describe moves

(your noob also gets very exited when "they" actually solve it)
 
when people say that i just call them out and tell them that it's impossible. They back down and say, maybe it was 3 sides. which is like J perm or a random 2 flip lol.
 
Liar: "Yeah I've solved the cube a couple of times on my own. Its frustrating because it takes me around 3 days to do it"
Me: "really? how do you solve it, whats your approach?"
Liar keeps dodging question, changing subjects, saying he can't remember specifically.

If you have solved a cube on your own, you will surely remember at least the overall steps taken.
 
"Woah, what math are you in!"
"Thats so easy, I can solve one of those in like 30 seconds" *hand him cube and he aimlessly turns it a few times*
"Those are so easy, don't you get bored with it?" *Again aimlessly turns cube when I hand it to him*
"A 2x2?!, that looks easy"
*The most annoying* "You just reverse the scramble or something, let me scramble it." * I let him scramble it, then he hands it back to me and doesn't watch me prove that I can solve it.
 
I announced that I'm learning how to BLD (well, sort of teaching myself, I made up my own method), and every day, people ask if I'm done yet. I said I would by next year, they still ask me if I'm done. :|

And this thread.
