A mediocre instrument though, is the love of people's life. It plays in the bass clef, and is the "back-beat" to the band. Though it has amassed a large following because of it's large size, low tone and vibrant sound, it is in many ways a cumbersome instrument.
Some of the effects on tuba players is that they end up angry that they chose an such a comically large instrument, and therefore feel the need to lash out at anyone who decides to "attack" their "godly" tuba. Another effect is that all tuba players feel the need to validate them self, and prove that they are the most important part of a band.
Often times, a tuba player is prorated as a larger man, and the inclusion of a tuba is a nod to how the flow of the bass line of a song is a lower and slower part.
Though all the parts of a band is valuable, many of the players of the tuba are quick to point out that their instrument "is the best!" and nothing with change their mind.
A conversation between a band and a tuba player would look like:
Tuba player: "you know, I, as the tuba player, am like the best and most important part of the band"
The woodwind section: "but we all have are parts to play"
Tuba player: "you're just wrong though"
Percussion section: "you're just loud and not really that needed"
Tuba player later: "wow they think they are such good musicians, clearly I am the best part"
The rest of brass in the distance: "we're just you but lower, and you know it"
