I didn’t expect gold from this thread, but that’s what I’ve gotten.

I learned the clarinet at school

That slang confuses me because, why a clarinet? A trombone, maybe, but a clarinet? I know I’m overthinking a simple dirty slang term but it just sounds ignorant. Like, let’s pick a random instrument and never mind if it makes sense.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING

I’m saying the actions one takes with the mouthpiece

Nope.

I’m saying the actions one takes with the mouthpiece and the motion of the hand would make more sense with something else, like a trombone. To pick a clarinet for that slang just seems so random as to be musically incompetent.

I’m saying that, as a musician, it confuses me. It sounds stupid more than dirty.

The trombone is already reserved.

I’d like to learn to play the saxo-mo-phone, the viomalin, the guitar, the banjo, the piano, and the theremin, but I likely never will.
