Bassoon

The bassoon is by far the best instrument ever, making the other sections bow down to them. If you fail to play it right though, it will sound like a duck that is dying.

And although it is the best, the other sections must confuse the bassoon with the oboe every other time they say the name, because they do not know any better.

Commonly referred to as the "farting bedpost", and also the target of many jokes (most of which involve the bassoon again being compared with the inferior oboe, having it being burned longer.) the bassoonists must be very patient.

Clarinetist: Nice Oboe!
Bassoonist: IT'S A BASSOON! -stabs with reed-

What's the difference between a bassoon and an oboe? The bassoon burns longer!
