Whenever anyone says "meteorologist", I hear "Meaty Urologist", which is something different entirely

Me neither.

I hope it's not just mixing up "meteor" with "meteorology", but this hope is sinking the longer I think about it...

Yes I think it's just the opposite of the study of weather being meteor-ology. Or rather, weather man = meteorologist = meteor scientist I guess, feeling dumb
