you are annoying man, but this was actually kinda fun...

I learned the structure of these chords. (I did learn lots of other things, but I don't care to list them all out here)

I learned how to listen for them too: (not always perfect, but 85% correct)
Key: (chord)="(feeling/imagery I associate it with)

CMaj= "lalala" <==happy
CMaj7= "lalala?"
C7= "uh huh, that's right"
Cm= "REJECTED!"
Cm7= "everybody knows u got rejected!"
Cdim= "hmm, it appears as if I'm tied to the railroad tracks"
C halfdim7= "oh look, light at the end...I have a bad feeling about this"
C fulldim7= "shit shit shit, it's the train and it's 10 feet away at full speed"
Csus= "Mountains!"

(and C can be replaced with any key, but I admit my listening accuracy would go down)

Ahahahahaha! I agree with the fist three, but a Cm7 doesnt sound like getting rejected, it's more like your little puppy dying. I'd say rejection sounds a lot more like somebody smashing their fist down on a piano, which would be a Cm7 flatted 5th, added 9th, a copule of more random notes here and there, and definitly a sharped 13th. (Hmmm, actually I think it'd have to be flatted 13th.) Anyway, it's kinda dissonant if ya'd ask me. Then again, I guess trumpet players might express their anger in a different way.
