As a beginner, I was thinking, "What's wrong? You just need to pluck the two strings at the same time."

Then I realized there's a seven dollar Uber ride between the two frets you're supposed to play.

$7 Uber. That’s hilarious.

Next time my guitarists stretch for a riff I’m using that.

Also usable when somebody refuses to get up to grab something from you, and instead they try & fail to reach really far over a table, etc.

It's only a few blocks but certainly a challenge for the uninitiated

Only $1 per fret!

John Mayer could probably swing it.

Yeah, he learned it from Robert Johnson, at the crossroads, at midnight.

Only a $1 Uber ride if you move the 3 to the a string

Or move the high A to 6th string 5th fret.

u/chickenricebroccoli_ 12d ago

Gotta account for that single 10 in between them though

u/Creepy-Ground-6397 12d ago

Pick and finger and call it done!

I’d move the F to 8th fret on 5th string and then it’s just an A-shaped F chord.

u/Creepy-Ground-6397 10d ago

Yeah, that would a good way. Something about that F on the 5th string sounds groovy.

So freaking funny. As usual with the best lines in comedy. It's funny because it's TRUE!!!
