I have a Bachelor of Science in Accounting. Never considered for a moment that I was a scientist.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think anthro/linguistics fall under the umbrella of social sciences, but it's a tough area to pin down. I probably wouldn't consider an economist to be a scientist, for example.

I have almost convinced myself to buy a "pack" of electronic cigarettes.
I've heard good things about them. If I could find a nicotine-free clove blend for them, I'd buy myself one. Because I MISS clove cigarettes. A lot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My GOD. I'm having such communication problems. He just answers yes to everything, so I have to phrase my questions really carefully, or I'll go away with precisely the wrong impression.
He also has a tendency to default to saying things affirmatively, if there's any wiggle room. So he'll say "It works" even if something fails a test case, because failing the test case was actually executing a given portion of code.
It's so weird. And kind of creepy.

Taking the definition of "yes man" a bit too far?

Heh. I have a Masters in Library Science, but am pretty sure that does not make me a scientist.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have an MS, and will now insist on being referred to as a scientist. The MS is in nonprofit management.

That makes as much sense as my JD entitling me to be addressed as "Doctor". Heh.

Because books.
I've heard good things about them.
After traveling last week, quitting looked a lot more attractive.
I just want to be a Doctor of Thinkology.

Nor does it make you The Master. These things are confusing.
They moved comp sci into the school of engineering before I graduated, and the "real" engineers were pissed. We were absolutely not allowed to call ourselves engineers. The depth of investment was offputting.
It's not like I'd been craving the label all my life, or anything. They can keep it.
