Procto...
We'll its finals week here in Houston, and sitting down yesturday proctoring the English 2 Honors final and i had some sort of smart person revelation...Proctor...Proctology...Proctologist...all have that same root word "Procto"...so this sends me on the search...
Proctor - 1. A supervisor especially of an examination or dormitory in a school. 2. To supervise (an examination).
Proctology - The branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the colon, rectum, and anus.
Proctologist - A specialist in proctology.
So my theory is that i am the supervisor of an examination that has to deal with the colon, rectum, and anus...I am sure if you were to ask any of the students in that room taking the test they would agree that the test was definitly chapping that region of their body...
As for myself, i think it has to do with the fact that both scenarios are a pain in the butt...cause proctoring is quite possibly the most boring activity i have ever taken part in and the proctologist...well, i have never been, but i am sure that it isn't comfortable.
