Get the pitching wedge mug.Abnormally hightened sense of pitch perception, allowing one to do most (if not all) of the following:
* Correctly identify a musical note by name without any reference tone.
* Correctly sing a musical note at whim without any reference tone.
* Correctly identify the key a song is played in without any reference tone.
* Discern how sharp or flat a musical tone is, relatively speaking, without any reference tone.
Also (more accurately) called absolute pitch.
This ability, possessed by about 0.01% of the population, can be very helpful.......or almost useless.
No, you don't necessarily have to be born with it.

Get the pitching a tent mug.Also known as Pitchfork Media. A pretentious, elitist, hype-mongering, trend-obsessed piece of shit website that specializes in "independent music".
Known for giving gushing reviews to anything that sounds remotely obscure. Even if the music itself actually sucks. No, wait, ESPECIALLY if the music itself actually sucks.
Too bad it only exists in online format or else I'd wipe my ass with their sorry excuses for reviews.
Also, all too appropriately, every hipster's holy grail.

HIPSTER: Hey did you see Pitchfork's review of the new animal collective? It got a 9.6, so it's obviously one of the quintessential albums of the decade.
MUSIC FAN: I think I'd rather listen to Tool's "Lateralus"
HIPSTER: Psshh, lame!! pitchfork only gave that album a 1.9. Tool obviously sucks to anyone with taste in music
MUSIC FAN: Riight. But you obviously have amazing taste since you base your opinions entirely off of Pitchfork's numerical rating system. Way to go douche bag.
