shadowen asked: Re: The Anon ask about Supernatural. Yeah, I totally did my master's thesis (in Sociology) on that show. There's a lot there to talk about. :)

Anonymous asked: I have heard that Supernatural is an excellent for anyone sociologically-minded. Could you explain? And also possibly point to which episode(s)/season(s) is especially watch-worthy?

2 Announcements!

1. I NEED SUBMISSIONS. Where are all your funnies, Sociology Students? I know you have them. 2. READ THE SUBMISSION PAGE FULLY AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. A lot of submissions are coming through where people don’t bother to add and complete the caption information for their submission (if you still don’t know why this is necessary, I refer you to the FAQ). Up until now I have been...

Anonymous asked: ...I submitted quite a few Sheep memes during the hiatus and I haven't seen any of them in the recent posts? What gives...

jethroq asked: Personally, anyone who calls people "sheep" makes me roll my eyes and usually stop reading what they're saying. Conformity isn't a choise made out of laziness and inability for independent thought, and just because someone isn't intelligent by an academic metric doesn't mean they're not intelligent at all.

miss-cath asked: I think that sheep is symbol of conformism everywhere... And btw, is there photo of Goffman on the main site?

domesticterrorism asked: Also alliteration.

moretocome asked: Spot on! In US culture the sheep is also a symbol of conformity. I love the irony.

Anonymous asked: That might seem a little rude, but why the hell did you have to pick a sheep? In french culture, it's THE symbol of conformism (jeez, most people don't even know what conformism means and just use sheep instead). As a sociologist, one of the reasons I chose to study social norms was to break free from them, not embrace them! The sheep might be an ironic icon, but it still annoys me --...

sociolab asked: Hey! I started a sociology blog at fyeahsociology and I've been working on making a list of other sociologists on tumblr that can be found on my main page. I was just wondering if you could share that with your followers and if anyone wants to be added to the list I will gladly do so!

femtrooper asked: Just wanted to say as a Sociology student, this is AWESOME! :) If you can, more Stats/Research memes? It's my favourite aspect of Sociology.^^ Also, the Butler stuff, GOLD! :)

Anonymous asked: I'm not sure if you have already answered this question a thousand times, but are there any jobs for an sociologist besides being a teacher? I know I am very misinformed, but I have no one to talk to about this so... thank you.

weirdsociology asked: Hey sociologysheep, love yer jokes to death and your dissertation sounds great. I was just thinking about the sociology of humor the other day. Would you mind recommending some reading on the subject that you think would be relatively accessible? Thanks very much.

downwiththe99percent-deactivate asked: I just discovered you today, Sociology Student Sheep, and now I can't stop smiling because of your delightfully clever image macros. Thanks for making my cheeks hurt. (I'm not even a sociology student!)

iwillsimplyresume asked: I'm new to tumblr and only just found this blog and it's instantly become my happy place. So sad there hasnt' been any new submissions lately.

run-the-scene asked: I opened this page for the first time and laughed out loud in real life when I see Foucault. Comp lit student here btw, but we do just as much social/cultural stuffs, so high fives nonetheless!

mmmmmdoritos asked: i only just found youuu please dont be a dead tumblr!! im a 3rd yr sociology student in the midst of my dissertation and was hoping for lovely funny sheep to keep me going, i guess i can try and make some and submit and try to resuscitate you xxxxxxxxxx

lemonysnicketing asked: I just want to say I love this blog! I chose Sociology as a GCSE subject, currently in my second year. I went through your archive and just laughed my head off XD Such an awesome blog :D

selbstentfremdung asked: May I ask why is it a sheep?

overlysensitivestudent asked: LOVE this blog! So happy to see there are other sociology students out there who enjoy Supernatural! Who knew there were so many of us? So happy to see another sociology student spreading the gospel on tumblr! Not to be too self-promoting, but I'm a sociology student concentrating in criminology, minoring in ethnic studies, and discuss all of these topics on my blog, in case you get any other...

overlysensitivestudent asked: Sad to see there isn't a Criminology Cricket or an Ethnic Studies Otter under other memes! There must be other Sociology Students out there with an Interest in these topics!!!

la-mythologie asked: Do you have any studying tips? PS - I have a "social sciences methodology" test on monday and i am spending my time on tumblr :|
