No
No you haven't
You have no idea of the power of the ukelele to drain anyone - ANYONE - of any drop of cool they have within minutes of picking it up
Let's try a visual exercise, hmm? Think of someone cool. How about George Clooney. Now, imagine him picking up a uke and starting to strum ... he looks a dick, doesn't he? An utter f**king knobheaded dick. How did you ever think he was cool? Now you can only associate him with George Formby. What a loser!
Now let's try someone else. How about David Bowie? He's the coolmeister himself. Let's imagine that scene in Extras where he sits at the piano and sings that mocking song. Now imagine him doing it on the uke. Oh no! This time's everyone's laughing at HIM!! No-one's joining in the chorus because of the ghastly reedy little noise the uke makes! People are turning their backs on him and laughing at him behind their hands!! He looks a complete tit!!
You haven't got a chance against the dark side of the uke
