Phonographic Memory

A person blessed with a Phonographic Memory has the ability to instantly recall and name the origin of sounds, chords, bass lines, drum fills, and guitar licks from the records he/she/they heard in their youth. Everybody recognizes the opening licks of "Satisfaction", but a person with Phonographic Memory "...can name that song in one note."

It is not the hearing of a train whistle and being reminded of the long summer evenings in Iowa. It is not recognizing a song being played faintly in the background of a Budweiser commercial. It is directly related to the graphic recording ( the LP or 45 rpm record, quite likely ) of those particular notes, and a instantaneous and pinpoint recognition of the song. Phonographic Memory (PM) is like muscle memory, as it is developed by repetition.
We gotta get Carlos on our team for this Trivia competition. The dude knows every song ever recorded! All he needs to hear is one note, and he can name it. He has Phonographic Memory!

Photographer

An Artist that takes pictures for a living. Photographers are able to get amazing shots through Candid, Pin-ups, Portraits, ect.

People do call themselves photographers even though they take blurry, meaningless, photographs. These people ruin a great form of art. These people normally can not take critiques for their life, even when they ask for it.
Person 1: Look at this photo I just took! I'm such a good Photographer!

Person 2: This is horrible! This has no meaning let alone any definition! You are no photographer.

Other example

Person 1: I'd love some feed back on my photography.

Person 2: First off, this picture is way to burry. I can't tell what's even in this picture. Also the light is extremely yellow, so I'm guessing this was taken inside at night.

Person 1: I'M A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER!! MY MOM TELLS ME I'M THE BEST!!

Person 3: Lolz you asked for critique
