Fibbing Friday — List of “Ists”

Di (aka Pensitivity101) hosts Fibbing Friday, a silly little exercise where we are to write a post with our answers to the ten questions below. But as the title suggests, truth is not an option. The idea is to fib a little, a lot, tell whoppers, be inventive, silly, or even outrageous, in our responses. For this week’s Fibbing Friday, Di has given us a list of ‘ists’ and asked what they are.

1. Philatelist — An expert in where you can get the best Philly cheesesteak sandwiches in the city of Philadelphia
2. Botanist — A doctor who specializes in the administration of Botox injections
3. Naturalist — A person who prefers to live as nature intended…without any clothes
4. Taxidermist — A person who makes those scented, pine tree-shaped “air fresheners” that taxi drivers hang from their taxicab’s rear view mirrors

5. Anthropologist — A researcher who is working to develop a cure for anthrax
6. Scientist — A writer of science fiction stories
7. Strategist — An Amateur astronomer who like to launch rockets that reach into the stratosphere
8. Protagonist — A professional tag player
9. Pharmacist — An actor who will only play the role of a pharaoh, a king, or a dictator.
10. Biologist — A person who volunteers to live for a period of time in a biodome, an ecosystems structure where animals and plants can be observed.

    How dare you!!!! I am not now, nor ever have been involved in a cure for anthrax! Other dumb things, yes, but not that one.

    I don’t remember if I’ve already shared this, but I wondered what the heck was going on a couple months or so ago when I was in a Uber [individual’s car]. This was the first stretch of a trip to Chicago for a concert. The vehicle didn’t exactly smell bad — although a little not fresh — yet, the air therein was causing me to cough (while I was able to suppress this with my throat nevertheless tickling). I couldn’t wait to get out of there.
