wow... i had to read that 3 times before i found the instrument....
english is my first language...
- Ditto
  First read was a normal read. Second read, I thought the joke was that there wasn't an instrument. I had to come to the comments before I saw it lmao

This joke makes me want to commit violins
- Sounds like you got a trombone to pick
  
  Kick him in the pianist
- Do you feel violated?

I feel like it would work better if it wasn't the first or last word. Just fiddle around with different words, and viola!

I noticed right away, thanks to my ASD super power I guess
- I have autism and I didn't notice that
  
  That's why its a spectrum, we are not all the same
  
  Same, where are our powers
  
  I haven't noticed my own autism too.

That’s a decent joke.
Can anyone trump it?
- If only the people who voted were decent

I noticed it immediately, but then I took it for an honest typo until I had read it all.
Gone was the fun.
- I didnt notice the second one. I feel silly

Reading this on my shamisen from Tokyo to Kyoto

You ever have phone sax?
- Ever had sax on phone?

As one cursed with an illiterate fuckwit for a brain-hole, any word can be either a random musical instrument or summon a demon, like fun little Schrodinger surprises. Just kinda gotta roll with it after a while

When seeing this post and all the comments that continue the joke, the first thing i read is the musical instrument. I look at the text, see the replaced word and then go to the first word to actually read it
When reading the post, i also spent a bit rereading the first part, triangle to understand what it means until realizing its just a typo

Fuck, I'm 9 out of 10 people.

This only works because accordion is close according, not because they sound alike which is what everyone is attempting in these comments.
This is similar to the phenomena that allows jumbled words to be read, it's about context clues not puns.
- You very smartphone.

I don't think it can be that piano to trick people.

Bruce Springsteen aka the bass would agree

Not to talk of when you replace first names with random aquatic creatures

I don't guitar you can clavichord any random word with an instrument.

Explicitly not "random", but admittedly funny.

I noticed it :p

I was loooking at it for like 2 minutes. How the hell do you mispell it that way. Then i thought it was autocorrect. Then i read the rest...

More like can't see without glasses and only look lemmy in my bed at night. I onlu see 30%
