Do you think that Chris will become more active online when his house is finally repaired?

No.

Firstly, there's no reason why she can't be both incompetent and malicious. Secondly, have you seen her? She looks like something out of Greek mythology. Part woman, part horrible beast. That makes the malice idea easier to believe. Thirdly, her treatment of Cole somewhat colours people's impressions of her, although Cole himself probably exaggerates a bit.

I wouldn't take anything Cole says seriously until we start having outside evidence. He's just a smarter Chris or Barb.

Why do people seem to think Barb is actively malicious? To hear some people on this board tell it, Barb specifically engineered Chris's whole life to leave him a co-dependent manchild forever available for snuggles and fast food runs. Presumably while cackling with glee and rubbing her hands together.

Or maybe my sarcasm detector's broken.

While I don't think she's going full-bore Baby Jane on Chris, everyone in the ultimately impotent Chandler family vies for control over something, anything. We see this played out in Chris's Sonichu comics, of course; and we also see this in Bob's attempted legal strong-arming of any organization that questioned the methods of his household. Barb, for any and all reasons we can care to speculate, is left with Chris.
 
So, how exactly did Chris's parents met? I read somewhere that they met a bar or something and Chris said that his mom "did the chasing" or something along those lines.
 
"Summers" of 93-99 - I think they're asking about the fact that Chris still had his house in Ruckersville but lived in Richmond for schooling (or whatever that whole deal was).

Stunned Chris is still into this. I tried for awhile and it's fine but after awhile it is just boring. The fact that it's a game that makes annoying sounds didn't help.

This is pretty much the accepted way it went down.

That is what Borb told Chris, who then made an Animal Crossing video about it. It's titled The 24th Wedding Anniversary Special.
 
Looking at photographs of Barb in the 80s, I can see why someone like Bob would easily fall for this crazy woman in all 80s makeup who's chasing him.

He probably thought the time in the bathroom that night was the best night of his life. Oooohhh, boy, did he draw from the deck a bad hand from that night.

Oh, also


Sonichu is so funny. Apparently, he has a fetish for dressing up in "Gay Leather Boy" attire. :medallion:

My random thought right now is this: During the trial, Rob Bell stated that Chris was a high functioning autistic manchild. Of course, they requested a psychological evaluation. I told a friend of mines who is a social worker and she told me why before or during the trial did they not appoint a case worker or a social worker who can probably be more helpful in evaluating his behavior and maybe could have shed some light about his behavior.

I can guess its because this was nothing major like a murder case or the courts don't do that kind of stuff.

Although Chris is mentally unsound, he is not in need of a worker. His intelligence is high enough that he can easily answer the questions he would've been asked. A case worker is needed only if someone is incapable of understanding - if they're too young, don't speak the language, are severely handicapped, etc.

It was a simple assault charge. His stupidity was not a factor of the case at all, his lawyer just mentioned it to garner him sympathy and make it aware to the court as a mitigating factor. Basic lawyer fluff so I thought.

Additionally, on paper anyway, there's no reason Chris WOULD need a caseworker--he's capable of understanding things around him, even if he needs a slow monosyllabic explanation. There's no innate reason why he SHOULDN'T be taking care of himself, or would otherwise be in need of someone (like a caseworker) to look after him during the trial process, any more than a normal person would be from their lawyer.

But that's all on paper. People with much worse mental handicaps than Chris manage to be at least reasonably self-sufficient and not hit people with cars. All the reasons Chris has for being a useless burden now are entirely from his environment.

It is, and it worked. Chris received a parole sentence, which he's already completed. As far as the law is concerned Chris has repaid his debt to society.
