Impessionist

A man convinced he has restless leg syndrome but he’s just revving his leg like you do on a 1987 Porsche’s carbon fiber gas pedal

Back in Mark’s day, he was the best (and only) impessionist of his time. He lived a solitary life with no next move… unless perhaps, it was his sleep deprived leg, ready to rev that Porsche like no man can and no man (only women) ever should.

New Impressionism

New Impressionists are a generation of musicians reacting to their impressions of what rock music was when it was still the most viable genre (1950s-90s in all of it's forms from shoegaze to noise to rockabilly). Some might incorrectly call this reaction post-rock, but that would imply somehow being past or being "over" rock music. Though New Impressionism is different from traditional rock music, it is not about being past or "over" anything. Far from it, the unifying theme is a musical reflection on what New Impressionists perceive the reasons and influences of rock music to be, whether it be concious or sub-concious. Some may even go so far as to live their lives as rock musicians were supposed to have, and to emulate the song structures and instrumental tambres they dabbled in. However, New Impressionist music can actually be quite different or strange, as New Impressionism is about a reaction, not about directly copying - it is an impression of what rock music was, not a snapshot of its exact reality, though some artists do get literal in their reactions and interpretations.

The Black Lips, showcasing New Impressionism, emulate the recording style and song structure of garage rock and the antics of punk heroes of the past.

First Impressionist 

The type of person who absolutely excels at first impressions, but is usually actually a bit of a twat beneath this thinly construed surface. He or she will greatly impress people and gravitate attention on first meetings, as onlooking witnesses who know them better suppress the deep annoyance this causes.

- Oh my, look how Nathan is just raking in all the attention from those girls.
- It makes my blood boil. How can they not see he is such a raging twat.
- Well, he exudes all that confidence and genuinely believes his own bullshit.
- Yeah he's definitely a First Impressionist, big time.

First Impressionist 

An individual who can read people and adjust his or her personality to fit their so-called expectations.

The ability to read others and yet still remain unreadable yourself.

I met the new temp at work and since I am a first impressionist I can read her and know she is interested in more qiet guys than loud party-goers. So fixed my personality to be less outgoing and more shy towards her.

immersionist 

One who learns a foreign language primarily through immersion or who believes such an approach is best in language learning.

The immersionists often use Anki to solidify the things they pick up from their immersion time.
