“After playing guitar for years, I thought I could learn to play the piano…”

“@td644: ‘A piano is the easiest instrument to pick up.’ @ProtomanX97: ‘BRB, going to pick up a piano’” was posted on Twitter by QuoteableClusterduck on August 28, 2013. The joke is that “to pick up” can mean “to learn,” but it can also mean to actually pick something up. A piano is physically difficult to pick up.

After playing guitar for years I thought I could learn to play the piano.
But it turns out it’s not an easy instrument to pick up.
