Future of the House

[Hogar Grupal]

I wonder if Tom and Harriet are convincing Barb to talk to the bank about some type of forgiveness, where they meet half way, Barb gets some money and moves on with her life. Chris will, in all likelihood, never step foot in 14 BLC ever again.

No way they'd do a short sale. They'd get pennies to the dollar for it as it would take over a thousand man hours to de hoard, sanitize, recarpet, and repaint.

It'll probably cost more to repair than one would buy it for.

It's funny, given that the house went through a fire, got fixed, then got re-hoarded. And Barb was crazy thinking that nothing was wrong.

Either way, it's the banks problem now. It will only be a matter of time before Barb dies and Chris is somewhere playing with himself (what's ever left of his toys), and just babbles about the collective shift.

While there is an incredible amount of filth in the house, that's not an especially expensive undertaking. All it is is a bunch of garbage, a lot of grime, and maybe some shot wiring here and there, it's not like there's a crack in the foundation or a hole in the roof. Looking around I would estimate that the total cost for dehoarding would be less than 10 grand, and less than 2 grand for any rewiring, and combined that with some other random expenses and I'd say $15000 is the max renovation costs. The house is in good shape due to being rebuilt after thef ire, and would probably sell for 220-260 thousand after those fixes.

Does that include disinfecting the standing animal shit? Because that's a biohazard.

Drachenlord had a similar situation, where he lost his infamous house. The solution was that the community bought it, and had it demolished. Chris doesn't have the issue of regular pilgrimages like Winkler did, but it may be possible that its demolished as well due to its infamy.

I want to see 14 BC razed to the ground, then salt the earth. Fuck that whole vile house, obliterate it forever.

Given the length of time since Chris has been there and the liklihood that Tom/Harriet have been involved, and I believe the pets are still in the care of neighbors (could be wrong on that, it's been months after all), the animal fecal material problem may have already been resolved and cleaned up. At least as far as pets are concerned - pests like mice and the like probably infest the house but aren't too big a problem to drive out and clean up.

Actually, just repaint the exterior to a baby blue or something. It's a non-zero chance Chris wouldn't even recognize it as a result.

When Barb dies, if it were up to me, it'd be demolished, the remnants burnt and the ashes transported to a nuclear waste disposal site and buried alongside it. The land it was built on will be given to the Cherokee and will receive yearly exorcisms by Catholic Priests, as to ensure it doesn't spread and no one can build on the land.

The house, other than sonichu, is what makes up Chris' identity.

If the house was standing and someone else lives in it, Chris is going to want to force himself in, claiming ownership because he's a 'celebrity'. He'll also feel like giving tours at a price. Destroying it would close the chapter that is Chris' life.

That would still get annoying and some people also actually knock. I'm not saying that Chris' house gets swarmed, just that any amount of randoms showing up and taking pictures and maybe even sneaking in to the backyard would get annoying.
That being said, I don't think visits will be a problem if the house gets sold because they would stop. There'd be nothing to gain to visit Chris' old house, especially if they knew where he was at the time.

I'm pretty sure that a USMC flag, some farm boy arms, a big dog, a couple of warning signs about an armed owner and some choice words are more than enough to keep 99% of weens out. The only thing I could compare the experience to is living in the house of a C-list actress from the Golden Age of Hollywood with a handful of boomer fans. One to a couple of people show up occasionally, take some pictures, do a live stream, the end. I joked about Brony Mecca here but you and your loved ones would be completely safe and fine unless you turn into Drachenlord.

As I said in that post, weens won't even come around if Chris isn't there. There'll be a few at the very beginning interesting in checking out the renovations and who bought it, but after that weens will switch over to harassing whatever group home is unfortunately stuck with Chris.

As much as I would like to see what Chris would do in the event he finally realizes his beloved 14BC is forever more inaccessible to him (it is already but he absolutely believes that he'll go home one day). However, that might end up just like how Chris handles 'death' which is simply recreating whatever he lost as part of CWCville by 'channeling its essence' or some shit into whatever he gets stuck with when all is said and done.

Particularly, his belief in the Merge which is essentially resetting reality and will turn him into a god seems to just shunt everything he loses into that dimension and he'll get it all back. If anything, Chris may have simply gone all-in on the Merge because his life is so shit and he'd rather dream of what he doesn't have as opposed to anything that doesn't reward short-term gains.

Chris thinking he's in 14BLC while staying in a one room studio or trailer home would be sad and funny at the same time. Chris has gotten used the huge space of his home for so long, he can't imagine living anywhere else. Then again, he's gotten used to a cell, so we'll have to wait and see what happens in the following years.

I'm going to buy the house and turn it into a combination museum and brothel.

It would be very Chris for him to claim he's 'astral projecting' himself into 14BC from his jail cell.

Instead of the Mustang Ranch, it'll be the Old Gray Mare Ranch.

He might declare that CWCVille headquarters has transformed, something like that. It would be funny if he keeps giving his address as 14 BC though so all his mail goes to a place he doesn't live at anymore. Chris will probably need help/reminding that he needs to fill out a change of address form.

While 14 BC is a relatively large house, remember it's filled with Chris and Barb's hoard. The housefire happened because there was no room in the kitchen to put a coffee machine so Chris put it in the bathroom where the door wore down its power cable.

Someone should give Chris a cardboard box with 14BC written on it if he gets out of prison.

You think Chris even knows what a change of address form is?
As for the size difference, he would still have much more space in 14bc than a jail cell or room in a tard home, and he coped with being in the cell by trying to astrally project himself and travel dimensions. I don't know how well that'll work in a home where he'll have to do more than sit in his cell and eat ramen, but that won't stop Chris from trying.

No need to give him anything. He'll make a 14BC out of Legos and drag it into McDonalds to make a video with it.
