Piccolo

Smaller than a flute, but an octave higher. Extremely hard to tune. Excrutiating to hear when WAY out of tune. Hard to play. Harder to master.

"Oh my god! What was that?!"
"What that high pitched noise?"
"Yeah!"
"That would be the piccolo..."

piccolo

A mini flute, plays an octave above the normal flute.

I thought the flute was high, but holy crap, the piccolo is crazily high. I feel sorry for the dogs that have to hear people practice it.

Piccolo

A Namekian. Son of Piccolo Daimou. Originated in the anime and manga Dragon Ball. Formerly Goku's rival, he was forced to join forces with him when Raditz, a Saiyan from the planet, Vegeta, invaded Earth. Killing Goku and Raditz in one decisive blow, Raditz warned everyone that two Saiyans would appear on Earth in one year. Piccolo took Gohan, Goku's son, and trained him to become a strong warrior.

Through the series, Piccolo went from a bad guy to defeat Goku to a hero with a strong, unshakable will. He battled some of the major villains in Dragon Ball Z, including Frieza, Cell, and some of the movie villains as well.

Piccolo is capable of strong abilities such as the Special Beam Cannon and the Hellzon Grenade. In addition to his strong fighting ability, he also has the ability to regenerate any limbs he loses in battle.

unwarranted piccione

The act of having an over-inflated sense of one's ability despite no evidence supporting this belief

Gibbo: 'I swear that if I stayed off the piss I could have run the 100m at the Commonwealth Games'

Everyone: 'Gibbo that's unwarranted piccione and you fucking know it'

Piccolo Trumpet

The worlds most awesome instrument, only instrument better than the trumpet. You can't get higher than a piccolo trumpet, this beast of an instrument makes flutes jealous. This instrument is the loudest instrument which shows the Dominance that all trumpet players have! Whenever we get dissed, we get it you're hella jealous of our bossness.

Hey, why can't you come into work today?
I have to show the ladies how cool I am in band.
Oh really? What instrument do you play?
Piccolo Trumpet.
Oh shit dude, I didn't know you were a literal god.

Piccolo

A glorious instrument, if played properly and in tune. It takes a master flute player to tread on the ground of the piccolo, only some make it out okay...

What is that glorious noise?
It's Abby, playing the piccolo perfectly in tune and properly.
I didn't think that was possible...
It is quite rare, for the average piccolo player.
