Anthropological Study of Brony Culture
Someone needs you guys to answer questions for her Anthropological study! Have some copy paste:
Hey everypony,
My name is Sarah, and I'm doing research in cultural anthropology. I'm conducting a study about brony culture, the brony community, and how Equestria Daily plays a role in the experience of being a brony. I chose this topic because I have a lot of respect and admiration for the MLP fandom, and I think it's generally just really cool. For this study, I need people willing to take this short survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Y3RJ53B. (And when I say a short survey, I really do mean a short survey. There are a grand total of 13 questions, and a lot of them are yes-no, and several of them are optional.) Please don't be deterred by the official-looking consent form on the first page (although I do ask that people under 18 not take the survey, because I did not fill out the oodles of extra paperwork that would be required for that). So... please, please, please take my survey. For science?

VastaKustutaYaaay Applejack! :3
VastaKustutauh, Isn't that like the 2nd time that Rarity was referred to as a colt in those darned on-screen synopsis?
also: Dat wheelchair! What con was that at?
@Gummy
VastaKustutaCRIPPLE ME! Cuz ah wannit naow!
I DIDN'T STUDY
VastaKustutaThe Final Roundup
VastaKustutaEVERYPONY RUN!! No, seriously, the preview showed a bunch of running. Anyways, I like AppleJack, she seems the most realistic, down to earth pony
We bronies are slowly but surely taking over the entire world :)
VastaKustutaOoh, survey! Yes, Sarah, I will take your survey FOR SCIENCE!!
Whoa. That New Lunar Republic vid was super intense. It was pretty sweet though :)
Man I want that wheelchair... I applaud you, good sir.
Can't wait for the episode tomorrow!! Applejack's finally getting some love :)
Woo TF2 Pony Maps!! Lol, glad they're finally "optimiezd" :D I've played on most of them, but I've yet to try Cloudsdale.
Barring power outage. I'm ready for the new episode and now I'm on a time wasting mission.
VastaKustutaIreland has combined ponies and Toradora. This pleases me.
VastaKustutaHow exactly do they fail naming/describing female characters on a show that contains mostly female characters?
VastaKustutaAlso, DAT WHEELCHAIR.
EVERY Applejack moment is a moment of epicness :D
VastaKustutaHooray for that cake. The words are just smashing! I can't wait for AJ craziness!
Am I the only one who thinks the New Lunar Republic is creepy?
VastaKustutaI'm not 18. I wanted to take the survey. :C
VastaKustutaI just got back from a truck & tractor pull not more than a few hours ago. I am so ready for this episode.
VastaKustutaNo Seth this is the greatest use of giant pony vectors.

The Irish cropped out RD
VastaKustutaThe first question is easy:
VastaKustutaI laugh at him while doing drive-by. :)
Wait a second, i didn't see no MLP in the paper yesterday, if it wasn't the Examiner, what was it? D:
VastaKustutaWill she finally get her moment? Who knows. One can hope maybe she will get a bit more great screen time, but I'm not holding my breath. lol
VastaKustutaThe Irish newspaper article seemed nice.
Dat NLR trailer. Eh, it wasn't bad. I think better can be done, but this one wasn't bad.
Shoot, I was getting more into Pinkie's Brew playing in that TF2 pony maps video than the video itself. Sorry. xD
"Rarity goes colt." Oh come now, like it was that big a secret in the first place. I think we can all safely say we knew Rarity's little secret already. Don't worry, Rarity. We still love you. :)
Hah, someone finally made that actual Pinkie Pie cake from the show. I was waiting for one to show up. I'm almost certain someone else has made one before this one. If not, then I am disappoint.
Dat wheelchair. Is awesome. You win sir. If I suddenly need a wheelchair, I know what I'm doing to it! :D
I support the New Lunar Republic and I am proud to sreve under Princess Luna as her loyal servent of the night.
VastaKustutaI love the last line on the newspaper article xD
VastaKustutatwo surveys in one night! i like surveys...especially brony ones! and if i ever become crippled, i must, i must, I MUST have that wheel chair! that thing's just epic!!
VastaKustutaOh, Joe O Shea, so it was the Star that published it, no wonder I never saw it
VastaKustutaOmg! The newspaper article ACTUALLY used a picture from the new series :O
VastaKustutaJust a few more hours...
VastaKustutaWhy is there a Taiga cosplayer in an MLP article?
VastaKustutaCereal's gonna be devastated
VastaKustutaYES! Another positive article of our fandom!
VastaKustutaIt seems the Irish article was originally for Akumakon 2012, but Bronies took it over. (And like many commenters O'Shea automatically genderflipped the heroines - at least he didn't attribute the series to Lawrence Faust).

VastaKustuta"Anthropological Study of Brony Culture"
VastaKustuta^This is going on at Rice University?!? Dude, I just applied there a while back! I Definately want to go there now I just hope I can get admitted and have the tuition cut to a decent size.
@Mike
VastaKustutaNo one under 18 can participate? Darn; they're cutting out a substantial demographic. It's likely their results will have an artificial skew as a result, if bronies under 18 actually decline to participate as instructed.
I actually liked that newspaper article. They even got the right pony generation :P. The comments on that German website weren't quite as nice, to put it lightly. Apparently, Luke Allen is a child molester and Sethisto doesn't have any friends except his pony figurines.
VastaKustuta"Imagined community?"
VastaKustutaJust because members haven't met in person doesn't make it imaginary. And lets face it, the way communication is evolving, physical presence is less relevant than ever before. Ever read The Naked Sun by Asimov?
That is an awesome wheelchair, and I love that someone faithfully reproduced Pinkie's birthday cake.
VastaKustuta@Veggie55
VastaKustutaUh, Veggie55, it was in the Independent :P There was a smaller version of the paper with the same article, but with RD in the top image and a Naruto cosplayer. But I got the bigger one (I sent the article to EqD). In my school they always bring in newspapers for people to read at lunch, and I was surprised to see that in it.
I want to read that newspaper article, to bad I can't read irish.
VastaKustutaThe guy with the wheel chair needs a high five.
VastaKustutaWHEELCHAIR!!!
VastaKustutaThats an awesome wheel chair.
VastaKustutaAs for the news paper article, HAH I live in Ireland, and go to NUIG - i'm carousing in and out of the akumakon thing it mentions in the tiny blurb at the end of the article. now I must find which paper has this.
Rainbow Dash wasn't in the picture in that Irish newspaper? That's unacceptable.
VastaKustutaWas it a coincidence that Applebloom is wearing the hat in the first picture, and she wears the hat in the new episode?
VastaKustutaNewspaper article was really well done. Good read.
VastaKustutaOh man, Ponychan is going to love that male Rarity episode summary... I've seen people there try to seriously argue that that's the case based on the eyelash scene from The Best Night Ever.
The First Thing That Caught My Eye In The Bronie Article Was "Lauren Faust, Die". I Was Scared Until I Translated It
VastaKustutaI will do almost anything if it's concluded with "For Science." *Takes survey*
VastaKustutaWhile I respect the work the person put into it, I'm still not a fan of objective-free maps. All the free maps I've played on are full of spies that can't stop backstabbing/sapping, and Snipers looking to level up their "Strange" rifles. Best thing to do is stay in the spawn room and broadcast trade requests in the message feed.
fucking beautiful, that first picture
VastaKustutaOh wow, I saw that wheelchair guy when he was rolling around Ikkicon this year. Cool to see him again on EQD!
VastaKustutaAs I was watching the Lunar Republic trailer, I couldn't help but think in my head that the narrator’s voice sounded remarkably like Hiccup’s from HTTYD.
VastaKustutaAlso, that is one pimped out wheelchair.
Great anthropological survey, especially since some of the questions were open ended. The "other" option just doesn't cut it.
VastaKustutaReally well written article from Ireland as well, especially since it remained neutral.
HOLY CELESTIA THAT'S MY WHEELCHAIR! THAT'S ME
VastaKustuta*dies of apoplexy*
I wish I was disabled lol
VastaKustutaDude, that wheelchair is amazing. :D You rock!
VastaKustutaOkay, survey taken. Though I'm not opting to do the followup interview...
