a word used to describe someone who has irreplacable characteristsics, and is weird hero among friends. they can always bring in a laugh, go
off the deep end, and/or
do the most absurd thing imaginable. the "Dr." offsets that the person isn't actually a doctor, but should have a title nonetheless. "Ip-Nye Botie" (
pronounced IP-NIGH-BOW-TIE or IP-NEE-BOW-TEE) is just a qualifying name for someone who is easily spotted as being different.
