Someone who studies thunder. So Whardman was correct, and Kelox and shorty was very close.

I almost didn't post it because it was way to google-able. I found the answer in about 5 seconds when I checked it.

Expand on the quiz, then, Corry!

The question should read:

Your daughter brings home a new boyfriend. He says he's a brontologist. What does he do for a living? And how would you tactfully ask him how the hell he expects to support your daughter with something crazy like that? The most creative answer to Part II wins here.

:mrgreen:

 

[Corry]

Good thinkin Terri!

You heard the woman! Answer her questions! Winner gets a gold E-star!

 

[doenoe]

I think tactfull went out the door once he started dating my daughter.........so it will be something like: "How the hell are you gonna support my daughter with looking at the sky huh???!!!?? And dont tell me you also sell ballpoint pens, cause thats just weird ok"

 

[whardman]

Yeah, that one was way to google-able

Actually it wasn't google-able at all. The only thing I found was

I’m a meteorologist, specifically a brontologist. I study storms.

followed by

I have brontophobia. Fear of thunder

And I found it on Ask.com not Google :roll:

So I just assumed that it was the study of thunder.

I found it on google easily. However, I googled brontologist and brontology. I think I found it with the second query.

 

[whardman]

Yup, brontology is google-able. I didn't think to change the form though.:meh:
