"I'm horn"
The bringer of Toot!
So, a mastodon user? :^)
That is not a horn. Purple correctly identified it as a trumpet.
It's pretty common to call all wind instruments horns in a band context, it is a trumpet but most musicians aren't going to be mad at calling it a horn. Still a bad pick up line
Trumpeter here, I'd be insulted if I was called a horn. Might be regional, but that's not common here. If we're speaking about horns, it's only French horns
Another trumpeter here. If it was a wind instrument that didn't have a reed it was called a horn.
The piccolo flute is a horn?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_section
Trumpets belong in a horn section
Trumpets are stored in the horns
Doesn't look like that article says anything about trumpets to me. It does link to this article about horns, though: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_(instrument)
That one says:
In horns, unlike some other brass instruments such as the trumpet, the bore gradually increases in width through most of its length—that is to say, it is conical rather than cylindrical.[1]
Which seems to specifically exclude trumpets from horns.
Most of these horn sections feature some combination of saxophones, trumpets and trombones.
Also the popular music section includes two photos with people playing trumpet and lists a bunch of horn sections, most of which contain trumpets.
Enh, in my experience "horn" refers to a French horn, but "horns" refers to all brass (separate from woodwinds, percussion, etc).
But yeah, if somebody referred to a horn, I'd assume they meant French horn.
In my experience its very common, just to give a counterpoint. "Bring in the horns" to denote a trumpet heavy section, or just referring to the brass section as "the horn section". 8dk might just be reguonal i guess but its colloquial.
Can agree. Where I live horn only refers to Alto Horns. Trumpets are something different.

I AM HORN.
“into ska”
"I'm horny" is just not something I can hear people honestly saying to someone else in my head except as a joke.
This Flight of the Conchords song did not help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOgC8qp_I2Y
My lyrics are bottomless......
I hope they get together again one day because every song they wrote was hilarious.

Someone's tooting their own horn.
"bander" is the french verb to "have a hard on" so it's still on track in my books

My dumbass would’ve interpreted that as ‘I’m a trump supporter’ and definitely not gotten any action
I would've interpreted it as "tooting", i.e. farting. No idea, how much action that warrants.
Well, good on him or her for being a music enthusiast, but what does this have to do with flirting?
Hi Horny, nice to meet you!
Hi horny, i'm dad.
Believe it or not, jail, right away.
Dude just wanted to show his horn blowing skills
You've joined a Mariachi band?

A little bit of Monica in my life, a little bit of Erika by my side...
