[–] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I shoot music out my blowhole.

[–] kinther@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

Out the blowhole

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

First of all, trumpet goes up the butt, it is tradition:

Second of all, we already have 2 at home:

You are and extremely talented painter in the year 1384, a skill that is extremely expensive and difficult to cultivate. How will you be remembered? Butt blast? Butt blasts!!!!!!!!

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, a talented painter after 1600, but butt blasts indeed.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

..... he gassen. Idk 🤷‍♂️ what's going in 5he world

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Haha how did I never notice that before?? Maybe because the pronunciations are different I guess--the "he" part (pronounced hey) is the fart and the gassen (gahss-en) is like a battle or fight.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Idk all I do know is that's a crazy coincidence. This is feudal Japan no way his parents knew. The fart man COMETH.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Direct butt-to-butt warfare, no trumpets - just like it used to be back in the day.

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

Back and forth, forever

[–] Friendlybirdseggs@sopuli.xyz 1 points 22 hours ago

2 thats the mouth

Here's a carp playing a Western concert flute:

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 43 points 2 days ago (4 children)

1, because we do not play trumpet with our noses.

Dammit I really wanted to well actually to brag about my friend's nose whistle act. SHE IS SO COOL

Yep, Futurama would never fuck up the science

[–] Twakyr@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I think number 2 would be more effective

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

played trumpet, the air helps but i dunno.. no functional lip interfaces on either orifice... the blow hole still has the most promise.

[–] IhaveCrabs111@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are you saying you know from experience??

[–] Twakyr@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago

Purely internet pseudo knowledge

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They might play better with their butthole than these options.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

gonna need a shit valve on that horn

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Dolphins would probably prefer the saxophone

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Like this, according to some expert in this field:

[–] Codpiece@feddit.uk 22 points 2 days ago (4 children)

It’s only blowing, not playing as it can’t reach the keys/buttons/whatevertheyrecalleds

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (7 children)

They are called valves and not pushing any valves is called "playing open". It just produces the trumpet's harmonic series over its fundamental frequency, kinda like a bugle. Most trumpets are Bb trumpets, so dolphins could theoretically play all notes in that series. That's very hard and requires excellent lip control, of course.

Wouldn't Figure 2 be like a person playing the trumpet with their nose? I'm not saying it's not possible, but...

[–] Idreamofcheesy@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

If I'm not mistaken, dolphins can't physically breathe through their mouth. Like, their mouth doesn't have a tube that connects to their lungs. So figure 2 is the only way it could work.

[–] answersplease77@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

username checks... eww omg

[–] mienshao@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Just researched this and apparently there has been at least one recorded case of a dolphin mouth-breathing. It likely only occurs when there’s something seriously wrong with the blowhole, but it can be done!

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 day ago

now i need to see a diagram/x-ray of how it's laid out

Do you play the trumpet with your nose?

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Dolphins don't have noses, and their tracheas are completely separated from their mouths.

[–] icelimit@lemmy.ml 13 points 2 days ago (4 children)
[–] No_Eponym@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

As someone who regularly aspirates, I feel this.

A dolphin would shove the trumpet up its cloaca (I think they have cloaca's) because they're horny monsters.

Teacher do dolphins have embouchres
