 I'll keep that in mind.

 Pretty sure that second one goes in Comedy Awesomeness.

I found this real life tale by the Czech speedcuber Jessica Fridrich.
Made me laugh.

Fridrich wrote
I decided to publish my system in Mlady Svet.
It contained all algorithms for permutations and orientations and a few moves for the F2L.
Most people were disappointed to learn that the method is actually quite "complex" requiring a lot of practicing and memorization. Most expected a simple trick that one can explain in a few minutes.
What did you say about the free lunch?

I remember one really funny story that happened to me on a train when I commuted to college from my home town.
A guy was sitting next to me playing with the cube.
I asked him about his system. He said: "I am using the Fridrich method."

 I asked with a surprise in my voice: "You actually memorized ALL algorithms?"
His answer was: "No, that's too much. I know only some of them."

I replied with: "Well, you need to memorize all of them otherwise you are not really utilizing its strength."
He looked at me frawning and said with his mouth half open: "Yeah, so what's your system?"

I answered with a big smile: "I use the Fridrich method, too, because I am Fridrich."

He did not blink an eye, did not say anything and handed me his messed-up cube.
I solved the cube in about 20 seconds to prove my words and we both laughed at the coincidence.

Well, it was more about how someone can get fame by name only.
And despite the fame no one would recognise that someone on the street.  
It's probably the best kind of famous.

I'd love to have seen the look on the guys face.
