Pretty irrelevant but that reminded me of this scene from Cannibal the Musical [0]. The whole video is worth watching, especially if you've seen the rest of the movie but I only linked to the music theory argument. The movie is one of Trey Parker's earlier works and is quite entertaining [1].
Coming from a family of musicians and artists, it's all pretty foreign to me. And I used to take lessons, and occasionally sit and work my way through a beginner guitar book. I've always heard music theory to be pretty obtuse and challenging. I'm sure if I put in some hours to understand the fundamentals it'd make a lot more sense, and read it at home with a little dedication it'd be a bit easier. It's truly interesting.
