epiphany vampire 

Someone who watches other people play video games that have knowledge-based puzzles, because (having played the game themselves already) they already know the solution and wish to re-experience the thrill of someone working it out.
Oh man, I finally beat Outer Wilds last night, and now I've turned into an epiphany vampire!

Musical Epiphany 

Having a musical epiphany is when you hear a song or band that completely alters or redefines your current music tastes. It will make you rethink nearly every musical decision you've ever made up to this point.
EX: Last night Jon and I went to a Get Back Loretta concert, and when the guitarist starting playing, I had a musical epiphany.

EX: I had a musical epiphany when an old Beastie Boys song came on the radio that I never heard before - changed my life.

Radiohead Epiphany 

The stage in a person's life when they realize that Radiohead is quite possibly the best band to have ever existed. For a music enthusiast, it's like going through puberty.
Kid A: Hey man you were serious about Radiohead, they're genius!
Kid B: Looks like someone hit their Radiohead Epiphany.

Stereo Epiphany 

An epiphany analagous to listening to a song one has heard many times before, but never in stereo or on expensive new speakers, and realizing that the song is far more brilliant, nuanced, complex or soul achingly beautiful than you had previously thought. Stereo Epiphanies can be romantic; falling insanely in love with someone you've known for years but never gave thought to, intellectual; going back to read Derrida after you've actually patiently engaged Husserl, Plato, and Saussure, or literal, listening to the Beach Boys' "God Only Knows" after hearing it on your father's car stereo since you were a small child and realizing that it is, in fact, the most painfully earnest thing you've ever heard, causing you to collapse to the floor and sob uncontrollably for several hours.
Gunther never realized he was star shaped crystalline god child with eyes countless as the sand; he thought he was just quieter than the other kids. It was a real Stereo Epiphany.

Toilet Epiphany

When you're sitting on the toilet and have an "ah-ha!" moment.
I was sitting on the crapper after a long meeting at work, when out came an idea. I truly had a "Toilet Epiphany".
