It looks similar to a fragment of a minuet from Brahms. I recognized it from an elementary study book of mine (Suzuki vol. 2 for violin). It gave me nostalgia and I had to find it...
So, because it's in an elementary study book (assuming it is easy for trombone as well), maybe the joke is that when practicing alone you go for easy things that you like instead of what you should be practicing.
Whole piece for reference:
You know, violin makes more sense- half of those slurs make 0 sense on trombone.
You can slur any 2 notes on a trombone with good tonguing and a fast hand.
On a trombone, you always tongue with "Ta" and "Ka" sounds for a good articulation, but when you slur with notes that have different positions you tongue with "Da" and "Ga" sounds instead. During the brief moment where your air isn't moving you snap your hand to the next note's position, and the result sounds similar to slurring between fingerings on a trumpet.
And now that understand why trombonists get all the girls.
