my friend and i are having this gay debate on whether you play a kazoo from the big side or the small side. I know it's the big side so set him straight pls.! :-)

I would be thinking its the small side because the noise has to amplify out the big side.

i just looked up how to play a kazoo and...

step 3. Put the end closest to the round thingy to your lips - this is usually, but not always, the fat end. Make sure the round thingy is on top.

you play from the big end because then less air can go out the small end, which forces the air from your humming to move the little reed thingy instead of going out the other side.
