The Importance of Abandoning Crap - Modern Nerd

I remember the sad words of my Cello teacher when I announced I was quitting that:

Don’t tell me you’re starting a bloody rock band.”

I told her I’d defected to the guitar because it doesn’t have a nine-inch steel spike in one end, a missing fret board, or a sad role in a Bond movie where Timothy Dalton uses a £1.4m Stradivarius to steer a makeshift toboggan. The truth is this: the Cello got tough at around grade six, so I switched to an instrument that any talentless shitbag can play.

Best quote of the day
