Former trumpet gang, I just want people to think about the fact that every brass instrumentalist has to empty out a notable amount of spit/moisture from their instrument every once in a while and I hope you're gagging right now because I always do at the thought of it

I make sure to wet my instrument before fingering it (reed instrument). The bowed string instruments need to be stroked though.

I'm glad someone posted a Riker
My new favorite gif
Tromboner
this is how WW3 starts isn't it
Not with a bang, but a womp womp
Trunpet gang about getting fingering and mouthing right then a little stroke when you get to the D.
Always remember to use lube
No, slide lube! Slide lube!
As a trumpet player at one point, I do have to acknowledge that the French horns were widely considered the best cuddlers due to the practice they got holding their own instruments.

Dude, I think your jerk off technique is gonna break your dick.
Personally I don't think there's much difference between a blow and jerk and a blow and grope.
Depends on the grip.
Por que no los dos
I’m trumpet gang, but mostly cos the other brass instruments are ridiculously big and heavy and I didn’t want to carry them.
. * cries in cello *
cries in piano
Laughs in melodica
Piano players are not expected to carry their piano. Cellists be dragging that thing through a crowded subway train :(
I know. It’s called a joke.

With trumpets you edge it
Someone got their buttons pushed
Yeah but the third valve slide feels like sticking your finger in someone's ass whole blowing them.

What about the reed instruments where you have to give your instrument oral, and it's your tongue and lip control which determines the note you produce?
[ breathing intensifies ]
Tromboners get jerked off.
Everything else is fingered (or beaten).
I've got the practice
Sounds like someone's lips are puckered tighter than their butt to me.
band kids have zero chill.
Wait, but... I make noises when I'm jerked off too...
Am I... an instrument?
THIS EXPLAINS SO MUCH
This one is so rusty!
I see what you did there.
It's more like vigorously pulling something long and hard into you with both hands
