Non-Cubers say the darndest things!

my english teacher wanted to scramble my guhong (modded with ghost hand springs for speed) and after like 2 turns it just fell apart and the whole class gasped and my teacher was like "OH MY GOD I WILL BUY YOU A NEW ONE"
i put it back together quick action
 
Luckily I've established to my non-cuber acquaintances that cubes pop and can be put back together. So when my 2x2 broke in science class today, nobody reacted even though I was mentally freaking out because that cube had never popped before. They've seen my 3x3 pop though, and a couple of the girls have dropped it and it exploded into pieces. >__>
 
I had a like 15 second solve and a guy says: hey how long did it take you to be able to do that?
me (not understanding): uhm Ive probably been cubing for a year...
him: a year? O.o no I mean how long did it take you to do that just now.
me: oh like 17 seconds.
*guy nods*
guy: my son can solve that too.
*guys son looks extremely embarrassed and walks away*

lol i felt bad for the guy's son... :P

I was cubing and this girl goes: oook, I am just a LITTLE jealous.
 
The most common ones I get are these:
1."WHOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Funny story about this one is, I was doing it while waiting in a line to give blood for a blood-drive at my school. And these two duded sat down next to me, and I solved it, and one of them was like "WHOOOOOAAAAAAAA!" and then he like turned to the other guy and gave him like a "that was so cool" hand-slap thing. Like he had accomplished something or something. My friend, who was sitting on the other side of me got pissed. He was like "ugh...gimme it." And he put it in his bag, and I never saw it again.

2.One time I got like 2 sides.

3.Lemme try...*couple minutes pass by* Well, I got one side. (the pieces are clearly lined up wrong.)

4."I used to have one. I just peeled the stickers off and placed them in the right place." Then they turn and laugh at me, as if I haven't heard that a hundred fifty billion times. Seriously, like they don't understand that peeling the stickers off is the worst way to solve it. Because you'll never get those things back on...

5.It's cheating if you learn how to do it. It's only real if you do it without knowing how. (and stuff along these lines).

6.You must be really smart!

7.Wait wait wait, lemme get my phone. (So they can record me doing it.)

8.My friend can do it in like 10 seconds. And I saw one guy do it behind his back.

...stuff like that. I know some of these have been said before.
 
5.It's cheating if you learn how to do it. It's only real if you do it without knowing how. (and stuff along these lines).

Lol I hate when people say that. That's when I say, "Learning to do Algebra is cheating. It's only real if you do it without knowing." Problem? :P

Oh that happened to me. I almost cried inside.
 
Someone was like that cube's illegal its flat (I was solving my magic)

about 2x2:
them: that's like easy mode!
me: solve it (gives them cube)
(6 hours later, hands it back still scrambled)
them: I thought this was supposed to be easier....
