Start to play the bagpipes instead. He'll soon beg you to go back to the uke.

Tell him offhandedly that a lot of men often dismiss the ukulele as a real instrument because its size reminds them of their own, um, inadequacies and they therefore feel threatened by it.
That ought to shut him up.
i think im going to show him this thread.
"Never wrestle with a pig, you just get dirty and the pig enjoys it."
don't play to impress others. self satisfaction is worth far more! chin up and uke on!
It is better to be insulted by a fool than praised by one.
LOL
how true!
i think im going to show him this thread. i think it proves how the ukulele is a real instrument, and how big it actually is
if you show him this thread, then your roommate wins. instead of getting just you all riled up, he will only take pleasure in knowing he got a whole forum upset. just let it go.
i have just had a huge argument over whether a ukulele is a real instrument or not with my room mate.
apparently its not a real one. pfft
it all started with "why dont you learn a real instrument?"
i have never been so angry
i dont see how people can class it as not being a real instrument?
