People laugh at you because you cube?

[Parity]

Ok well I have talked to people and a lot of them say they get laughed at because they like rubiks cubes.Well at my school I draw cube on everything and I never get laughed at.I bring them to school all the time and never get laughed at.

So how do people act towards you because you like rubiks cubes?

Lot of people think 'Oh, wow! That's cool' and others are like 'Teach me' there was only one kid who thought it was dumb and gay. I think he was jealous though

I go to an all boys school, so a ton of kids are stupid jocks, who cheat and stuff. A lot of kids are still o.k. though, and they just watch, but some are desperate for attention "25 seconds, you suck" kinda things. Also I've heard people say pretty mean stuff to their friends when the walk by me and think I can't here.

 

[IamWEB]

A lot more people are amazed by it than there are people making fun of me/it.
No, I didn't have problems with people's opinions really.

I've only brought my cube twice this year though, and both were by requests (kind of).

 

[Twofu2]

I cube in front of everyone. Everyone says "How cool". Now everyone's getting a rubik's cube. They all are hard to turn though. Everyone thinks my cube is broken because I set its tension to make it loose.

Well I'm a freshman in college and we had to make a video about ourselves, things we like, etc ...
So I said my name, city, school, my major, talked about my fitness team, and at the end said, "another hobby of mine is solving rubik's cubes, with a best time of 13 seconds"
By the way, we had to put these videos on youtube for our whole class to watch, sort of like an intro video about ourselves.
So I'm in class today and she finds my video.
After I said the thing in the video about the 13 seconds, she was like, "woah, you can solve a rubik's cube in 13 seconds, o here we go"
(I put a 13 second solve in there at the end and it just started playing) (I practiced the scramble too, to get a good time on video)

Everyone in the class was like "o my god" and "its fast fowarded"
"play it again"
All of 'em looking at me and stuff.
Then they rewinded (rewound?) the video and watched again.
I guess they thought it was pretty awesome.

This also happened today.

most people love it and they really want to touch my cubes and play with them, but if it pops, they come to me with a guilty look... There is one kid who is always like dude let me see it or you're a freak of nature, and I refuse to give them up becaise he spends about 30min ona scramble making it "impossible"

Aren't you also really built? Mister Leonidas grandson? ;p
People would think twice about making fun of someone stronger than they are.

To be on topic, most people don't laugh at me.
I understand how odd cubes are, so sometimes I joke along, and tell people what they want to hear.

 

[reghrhre]

No one has, well at least don't think so. They usually say how do you solve it that fast?

I do the same thing. I usually joke along with them about the oddities of cubes. Some people do laugh though and do not want to be seen with me while I cube, but I guess they just think it is nerdy.

P.S. - I already look pretty nerdy, so I can understand why they would laugh/smirk.

P.S.S. - Whoever said that the jocks think it is dumb I would have to disagree with. Well, at least in my case, the jocks/potheads think it is kind of cool.

I would bet you'd say all jocks are stupid, because they cheat and "stuff".

Wait, are you saying that I'm stupid because I didn't go into detail about how many of the kids at my school cheat, lie, manipulate teachers to get a grade above failing.

I mean, i've heard about people being hostile on the forums, but I don't understand how I managed to upset you with the word "stuff". I just didn't want to list a bunch of ways. Are you just one of those people who goes on the forum to insult people, because maybe you should let it out on the people you really have a problem with.
