The New Pornographers are a Canadian indie rock/power pop band. They are really awesome, but unfortunately, not too many people outside of Canada and the US know who the hell they are. Yet.

They're kind of strange at first. They take a few listens, but its worth it! Cause their music is sweet and it makes you happy.

Me: Have you listened to The New Pornographers? They're pretty great, you should check them out.
Random guy: ROFL!!1! WTF, you said PORN!!! HAHAHA!
Me: stfu.

photographerspeople

A typo in a mistake-ridden rejection email sent to over 3,000 photojournalists who applied for the 2020 New York Times Portfolio Review. A common phrase to refer to a photojournalist.

Damn, the New York Times really rejected thousands of photographerspeople from their annual portfolio review.

Photographer

Term often misused to describe a "Camera Owner."

Photographer should define to individuals using cameras who are dedicated, show some level of skill, talent, or expertise, and usually persist in taking pictures for extended periods of their life.

Buy a piano you aren't automatically a pianist.
Buy a plane and you aren't automatically a pilot.
Buy a camera and you're a photographer.

Look I just got this camera at a garage sale, say cheese, I'll be your photographer.

Dude, you're just a camera owner... take the lens cap off... you've got a long way to go before you're a real photographer.

Surf Dracula Syndrome

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.

I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
