    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 it immediately, but then I took it for an honest typo until I had read it all.

    Gone was the fun.

    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.

      that’s likely the reason. the more you’re used to a language the less you notice mistakes

      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

          AuADHD reporting in. I got caught re-reading the first part but for a while trying to figure out what neat thing about free-reed instruments was going on, before eventually reading to the end and realizing that its presence was the joke.

    Explicitly not “random”, but admittedly funny.
