A brief history/ anecdote on the definition of fungologist:

A fungologist t is an essential proprietor of the study of Fungology. Particularly the term fungologist refers to a dedicated connoisseur of fungal research and experimentation. A fungologist is generally aware of the anatomical features of the decomposer species; generally the fungi kingdom. The etymological origin of fungologist is quite an enigma, a mystery of the ages, but is often attributed to a geriatric paleontologist who contracted swine flu while exploring an unmapped cavern on the island of Svalbard on the outskirts of the arctic circle. The paleontologist did bible find the rumored remains of a rumored Edmontosaurus fossil. The scientist emerged disillusioned and delirious, paranoid of “shrill noises emanating from the deep.” The origin of these sound waves is unknown, yet is assumed to be the cry of a bat, or plausibly a balrog, an ancient fire demon. Quizzically, the only word proceeding from his lips were “Fungologist” and “Narcolepsy.” This term has been adopted into the scientific community, seen as a more “bougie” manner of describing a mycologist. The roots of fungologist is separated into three parts. / Fungus+ ology+ gist / the study of fungus to find the general gist of the subject. That’s all folks
