    To start off, I really must say that your anti-spam random question made me want to tear out my hair and strangle my computer.

    Hello. I am a student attending a IB school in the Washington DC area. Before we can graduate, Everyone in the program has to complete what is known as a "personal project", which is unique because we can do one on pretty much anything (Although my friend's idea to grow pot was rejected on the grounds that that's illegal in this state)

    After having much difficulty trying to figure out what to do my project on (my other ideas were rejected on the fact that charity fraud is illegal in every state), I remembered a old friend of mine, who was a Brony. So I decided that I should do my project on bronies and Brony Culture.

    I have some questions, ***ALL OF WHICH ARE OPTIONAL***. That means you don't have to answer the ones you don't want to, and I won't hold it against you.

    GENERAL STUFF

    1. How old are you?

    2. Which city / Region do you live in?

    If you are outside of the US / CAN, which country?

    3. What is your Height?

    4. Weight?

    5. How do you normally dress?

    6. Do you live alone or with someone else?

    If you live with someone else, who?

    7. How long is your Hair?
    Beard?

    SOCIAL:

    8. Would you consider yourself successful at making Male friends IRL?

    9. Female Friends?

    On that note, are you in a relationship?

    10. What about online friends?

    ACADEMIC:

    11. How did you like High School?

    12. What was your GPA?

    13. What was your favorite class / Classes?

    14. Least Favorite?

    15. Do you have a job?

    Doing What?

    How much money do you make?

    SHOW HABITS:

    16. How did you first hear about MLP?

    16. How old were you?

    17. How old were you when you started to watch the show seriously?

    18. How much time do you spend a week watching MLP?

    19. How much time do you spend a week discussing MLP or related?

    SHOW RELATED:

    20. Do you ever cosplay?

    21. Do you own any pony toys, plushies, blankets, or related?

    22. Do you write fan fictions about it?

    23. Do you make fan art?

    OTHER:

    24. There is most certainly a social stigma surrounding MLP. Do you get hated on?

    How often?

    What is your response when that happens?

    25. There are several sites dedicated to mocking people who watch MLP. What are your thoughts on them?

    Have you ever visited them?

    Thanks for your help. If you are interested, send me a email at aal39093@[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#282828][FONT=helvetica]gmail.com (Spam email with a autoforward if I get too much), and I'll update you when the project is finished.

    PS: In my general research and the fact that they are bronies, I am assuming you are male. If you are not, please say so.

    I'm surprised there are no questions about sexual orientation!

    Also, I thought the purpose of anti-spam was to keep spam out while making all non-spammers want to tear their hair out? :3

    And finally you might want to fix that there are two #16s, that could be a problem.

    1. 19
    2. West Michigan, US
    3. 6'2
    4. 175 lbs
    5. Jeans/Jean shorts and a blank or patterned t-shirt
    6. I live with my family at the moment
    7. About 1/1.5 inch hair, no beard
    8. Yes, but I prefer not to have too many
    9. Yes, but I prefer not to have too many, and I am not in a relationship
    10. Yes, but I am cautious for a reason until I have learned plenty about them.
    11. Um. It was fine?
    12. 3.45 GPA
    13. Pre-Calculus, Honors Choir and World History
    14. PE and Health and Chemistry
    15. Unemployed but looking
    16a. My sisters liked to watch G3 MLP
    16b. Around 12 or so (I thought it was terrible and still do)
    17. 16, when my friend showed me G4 MLP (FiM)
    18. Strictly the show? I only watch each new episode once, and maybe one more time later if it was really good. So, half an hour to an hour.
    19. Probably about 8 hours a week.
    20. Never
    21. I only own merchandise my friends bought me as surprise presents, I don't care enough to waste my money on it
    22. I do
    23. I have, I don't anymore
    24. Absolutely, mostly on the internet where people are anonymous and can be jerks as much as they want, but a bit in real life too. My family makes fun of me for it, but not in a mean way, and my brother especially hates the show and anything related, but again, he doesn't hate me, just the show. I don't think I've ever been bullied in real life for liking ponies, despite going on pony websites in school around other people, having a pony background on my laptop that I use in public, et cetera. When people hate on the internet, then I feel sorry for them that they waste their time doing such a hateful thing. When they question me on it in real life, I just tell them that yeah, I like it, no, it's not really just for little girls, that was previous iterations of MLP in my opinion, although some would disagree on that too. Just acting generally cool and unconcerned about it has deflected almost any hate in real life I might get.
    25. Eh, refer to 24. People who waste their time to specifically hate something that passionately are wasting their lives more than we are by watching a children's show. If you make fun of it with the occasional joke then whatever, but actually making a website and gathering a community dedicated to hating something this trivial is absurd. I've never gathered enough respect for them to visit those kinds of places.
