folklorist 

An individual who studies folklore and/or folklife for a living.

Often identifiable by their peculiar clothing, meager incomes, and the ability to talk about how "everyday stuff" is actually pretty cool and meaningful in larger scheme of things. As a profession, you could say that they are the ultimate collectors and bearers of tradition.

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
