A Sour Note

I have an acquaintance that I talk to on online on occasion. He lives in the same town as I, and I’ve seen him in person once. He’s quite a bit younger, and is a concert violinist.

We had this exchange this evening:

him
9:58
i never thought i would love schubert
but i’m not hating practicing it like i used to

Jester
9:58
what did you have against schubert?

him
9:59
second violin parts are boring

Jester
9:59
isn’t that usually the case?

him
9:59
more so with schubert

Jester
9:59
no one strives to be a second violin

him
9:59
ouch

Jester
10:00
heh. you know what I mean

him
10:00
burn

Jester
10:00
that might be the geekiest insult I’ve ever lobbed.

Da Duck - I often find myself comforted by a gigantic bowl of Rainbow Schubert.

today it is my goal to use “no one strives to be second violin” in normal business conversation twice. love that.

hello - it does sound more profound out of context, huh? Let me know how that goes… we can discuss royalties later. I sense a new tee shirt design coming.

um…do you kiss your mom with that mouth?

really? “no one strives to be a second volin”

could you have been anymore vile?

i’m sure i have a bar of soap that will take care of that filthy mouth and maybe some other “dirty” body parts!

Danny - I know… how could I have possibly said anything so totally repulsive? Can I choose from a list of soaps?

my mom used to say ‘who wants to play second fiddle’ all the time.

your phrasing was much more vile.
