Not a recorder?

So I went to the local music teacher today to see if my Asarkar is offkey… as we were testing it out, one of his students walks up and says, I quote, “Wow, a metal recorder, cool.”

Now, I’m not the biggest whistle player out there, but I still found myself cutting off the music teacher to chew out this poor sophmore for a minute or two on whistles, knowing different cultures, etc."

What happened? I tend to be very liberal with comments made towards me…
