The guy responsible for everypony’s highlight of the day, (Equestria Daily’s Nightly Roundup!)
is coming to Big Apple Ponycon as part of an anthropological study (graduating university with a Masters in Microbiology is not enough for this astute stallion of science)... EQD’s CALPAIN will observe the clan and custom of the NYC Herd, in a series of exercises examining the unique culture of the most biologically diverse pony fandom on Earth.
Calpain will explore the origins of pony fandom, through encounters with enthusiasts who have been loyal fans of My Little Pony from the inception of the brand.
His investigations will introduce him to collectors who have devoted entire rooms in their homes to their pony stashes, and culminate with a convocation with the original creator of My Little Pony herself, Bonnie Zacherle.
The researcher will ruminate upon Ponycon’s cultural cavalcade of art, performances, gaming, panels, interviews and surprise special events, while applying his scientific method to his hypotheses from a uniquely Gothamist perspective.
He will explore our linguistics (Howyadoin’? m*********er! fuhgeddaboudit!)
and tackle the ages-old question, “What IS the correct way to hold a slice of pizza”?
