So, um, I voted for violin this round, but I’ll probably vote for 'cello in a potential third round matchup (if they win this round). What happens to me?

Oh don’t worry, your little fiddle-thing won’t go extinct just because we mandolinists have a more fun instrument.

If you buy me enough drinks, I sometimes will admit in a moment of candour that the cello is a deserved equal. I’m on red wine, at the moment, if you want to get a ahead

Fun.

Fun.

That’s it? Sounds a bit, well, boring

[Biffy_the_Elephant_Shrew]

Fun is boring? You need more of that red wine.

Profound, sensual, elemental. I could be talking about the wine or the violin, couldn’t I?
