Tenor is a shitty .gif picture service that cherry picks the most uncomfortable gifs for the front page to see,
while removing gifs you actually use.
Chad: Eek, is that a tenor gif?!
Jake: Sorry, I'll use Giphy next time
Chad: you better

Tenor Saxophone

1. An instrument that is superior in all ways to any other saxophones,
especially the alto. The ultimate sex machine, designed initially to woo ladies
and cause spontaneous pants removal, but later used in jazz music. The weapon
of choice for godly figures, like Thor and Mars.

2. An instrument that requires a hefty amount of hallucinogenic drugs to
generate the optimal improvisational solo.

3. A tool of great justice.
1. "Damn, Michael Brecker can do whatever the hell he wants to with a tenor
sax."

"Yeah, I bet he can feed hungry orphans with that thing."

2. "Dude, Coltrane must have been smoking something good when he played Giant
Steps, because these changes are fucking redonkulous."

3. " And then I foiled his evil plan with my Tenor Saxophone."

Tenor sax 

A member of the saxophone family which is placed in between the Baritone and Alto voices. This is considered one of the sweetest, smooth, melodic sounding insturments by some peoples opinion. The Tenor Sax is a favored instrument in many Jazz ensembles and Ska bands. This sax is known for being able to blast out beutiful sounding solos at fast speeds. People who play the Tenor are usually extremely suave and good looking and can usually pick up any gal they would want.
