Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

So I know the business card discussion's pretty much over with but I wasn't able to post this back when it was relevant.

I think Chris' obsession with them started with a 4Kids.TV campaign from a few years back that took screencaps and other art from their popular shows airing at the time and allowed children to go online and edit the pictures into a card with your name, address, etc. Not sure if anyone else remembers this (or if anyone bothered watching 4Kids when they were younger) so idk. I know Sonic-themed cards were an option, so that'd be a huge draw to Chris.

How averse to change is he, did he cry when the Power Rangers changed their zords or half their cast? Did he cry when Megatron became Galvatron in Transformers? All just meaningless speculation I know given that he probably never references this. But given that some people seem to be able to figure Chris out insanely well I figured I'd ask.

He probably let both those examples go when he realised new robots ment new toys. His whining over a change in voice actor only seems silly to us because we arn't as invested in the show as he is. Plus being autistic his idea of big and small issues are skewed.

We know he dosn't like change. Unless it elevates his stress. Then he's all for it providing it requires no effort at all on his part.
 
If I remember correctly isn't bally rub something where he rubs the dog's head like a ball or some such shit?

*every gay joke ever here*

Only bally rub I've ever known :ween:

I suppose so, if that is the case I am still surprised he didn't mention the 3 new rangers in "Revive Zordon". They not only changed actors, they changed characters. I wouldn't have expected him to complain about it so long at least if he hadn't decided to dedicate a song to how much better PR used to be.
 
Just a random thought, I was bored and browsing through the CWCipedia archive on the CWCki, which is supposed to be pre-vandalism, and I came across this.

Now I feel the imperious need to read more Sonic gay porn. Thank you, CWCki, for bringing back one of the most beautiful memories of my prepubescent years. Sonic gay porn. I'm so happy I could cry.

Do we know why Chris made that video? Was it just some random day for him and he decided "I'm going to tape record myself pretending I'm the looney tunes Singing Frog"?

Should Chris try competitive Pokémon?

He already tried competitive TCG. That ended with him being racist to small children.

But if you mean for the video games, he'd be so poor and lazy at it. Those guys actually do all the level grinding to get their 'Mons to level 100. Chris is just too lazy to do that…. Then again, he did type out the entirety of "Story of My Current Days" on Animal Crossing, which meant that monotonous voice had to speak out every. single. letter. to him.

Oh, there's about a million things more important than simply level for competitive Pokémon. Hell, wireless competitive Pokémon nowadays sets all your Pokémon to 50, so level doesn't make a difference. No, competitive Pokémon requires tedious training and breeding, which Chris may have the patience for, but I don't think he'd want to. Even after that, competitive Pokémon is pretty much all about prediction, which Chris would absolutely fail at.

Pretty much this. Chris has virtually unlimited time; I'm certain that he's gotten dozens of Pokemon to level 100. However, as was discussed in another thread, he doesn't know how to "train" them, so to speak, nor does he give them even remotely decent moves. Basically, he's like an eight year-old playing, which is pretty much what I'd expect from Chris.
 
Why did Chris think we all understood his thought process before he figured out that a lot of his fans were trolls? Why did he think we'd know what "My Wooden Badge was delicious" or "Merried Senior Comic" meant?

I have absolutely no idea, but Merried Senior Comic is one of my favourite characters, if only for the sheer insanity of his name... and no, I sill haven't figured it out yet, but it still cracks me up whenever I read it.

Speaking of which has anyone figured out what Merried Senior Comic was supposed to mean? Was Kirby an amateur comedian who mentioned offhand that he had a wife and Chris thought it was funny to make fun of his age? That is literally the only way I could see it making a random-sorta Chris sense.

There was a thread in which this came up a while back, and someone said he used the term "comic" as some sort of insult in one of his e-mails. Presumably he's trying to say the guy is old (senior) and married (not merried) and that Chris thinks he's a jerk... but that's just speculation.

Also if his prohecised daughter was supposed to be white like he said than why was he okay with dating Native Americans, Asians, Hispanics and all other sorts of races? If he did by his own logic than Crystal would not be completely white. Or is just that he is "Old Fashioned"?

I've always found it interesting that Chris specifically excluded blacks. Again, I suspect its because of the environment he grew up in. He's not especially aware of "race" (or ethnicity, culture, nationality, etc) anyway. He does claim to be whatever percent Cherokee, like just about every other Southerner, so I suspect Native Americans get a free pass. Most likely because he's never seen a full blooded Indian and only goes on stereotypes from cartoons. He likely thinks he is Indian, and therefore all Indians "look white." And I suspect his pride in his high school Spanish colours how he views Latinos (though again I suspect he'd be shocked to learn there are Latinos with obvious African ancestry who might be considered "black"), much as his love of anime and manga makes "Asians" more tolerable, though he doesn't seem to realize there's a difference between China and Japan, or anything about Buddhism, Taoism, etc...

Of course, also worth mentioning that Chris mentioned disliking Islam, which with his sloppy thinking may mean he's also prejudiced against Arabs, Turks and/or South Asians... if he's even aware of the differences between said countries or the fact that Islam is a religion and not a race (meaning there are white Muslims, Latino Muslims, lots of black Muslims, lots of Asian Muslims). Not sure what his opinions on Australian Aborigines or Melanesians are though. LOL

Well, what are you comparing his (kinda) literary references to? If you're comparing them to his lego want list, with the references, he thinks that he's clever, and that other authors of creative works put references in their works, right? So he put references he thought his audience would get. (he just fucked that up because he's dumb)

Well, that and he pretty much stole the idea from Family Guy. Except, as you said, his references are extremely dumb. Undoubtedly sometimes they refer to personal events in his life, which his intended audience has no way of knowing because even the dedicated Christorians don't follow him around on a day-to-day basis. At least I hope. And on top of that, it's filtered through Chris' atismu, so I'm sure that "Merried Senior Comic" made perfect sense to him even though he can't really convey what he's trying to say to us. The other problem is that he often references things that are so obscure that very few people will remember them. Everybody will get references to Star Wars, or Transformers, or Fast Times at Ridgemont High. That's why Family Guy can get away with it (even if it is annoying and repetitive). Nobody remembers Filmation's Ghostbusters, Samurai Pizza Cats or the American Rabbit, so we don't appreciate the references Chris peppers his work with...

And of course he's also terribly unoriginal, so he recycles material from Family Guy and other sources, often failing to get the original joke entirely or not recognizing the cultural reference because he was so sheltered (and genuinely uninterested in the world around him) that he never watched, read or listened to any of the things he's trying to "parody."

To Chris, I think "white" means "not black."

To be fair, that is how race tends to be framed in the United States. "Ethnic" almost always is used as a codeword for "black," and Latinos, First Nations, Arabs, South Asians and other non-whites tend to be lumped together with blacks one way or another. In a way, its actually interesting that Chris puts Native Americans, Latinos and Asians closer to whites. Of course, as I said above, part of that may be due to his self-identification as "part Cherokee," as well as his high school Spanish class and his interest in Japanese pop culture. Still, its much more progressive than we might give him credit for. On the other hand, his depictions of other cultures tend to be on par with everything else he's done in life. Unga Wunga springs to mind...

Chris' random exposition (like on the reproductive organs of Sonichu and Rosechu) is a signature of bad fiction, just more hamhanded than usual.

Indeed. Even bad erotica writers usually don't have to describe their fictional characters' genitalia and reproductive habits. Or at least, so I assume. I'm not exactly a connoisseur so I don't know what turns people on, but I do know there's plenty of horror, science fiction and fantasy themed erotica, up to and including stories with freaking dinosaurs and anthropomorphic otters. I assume those people are still writing sexier material than Chris, if only because it wouldn't be that hard to do in the first place.

I like the idea of dividing Chris' age in half to establish the state of his emotional maturity, and these read like the kinds of stories a hyperactive 11 year old might write.

Except for the fact that he's trying to write rather graphic adult themed material...

Chris is more interested in lining up his pretend action figures for battle (which they usually win without much tension anyway).

What's interesting is how little depth, plot or character development there actually is. Sonichu is his Mary Sue, and granted Chris eventually inserted himself into the comic and overshadowed everyone else, but there isn't much substance there at all. Sonichu is "the best." That's it. He's the protagonist and we never find out why we should be interested in him or care about him other than Chris really, really liking the whole electric hedgehog design. The rest of the characters are equally superfluous, almost invariably including an obligatory female counterpart for Chris to work out his obsession with relationships. Despite never actually have been in a relationship in the first place. And yes, that definitely shows in his work.

God... I can't believe I'm critiquing Chris' work...

Which makes me wonder what kind of audience he was writing for before then.

Being an egotist, I'm sure Chris honestly believed that everyone else in the world cared about his thoughts, personal life, interests and extremely generic, unoriginal fictional creations. Of course, as I said before, he didn't do much to make Sonichu an interesting character, but he seemed to think it was a money making franchise. Enough so that Nintendo would be interested in picking it up, because apparently he doesn't understand how the real world works.

To be fair, there is a certain "logic" to it I suppose. Chris has always had trouble talking to people. He can't deal with women (because its too stressful and they all have boyfriends anyway), he can't deal with men (because we're all jerks), he can't deal with strangers, he can't deal with authority figures (manajerks, jerkops, Slaweel Ryam), he can't deal with black people, he can't deal with freaking kids who beat him at Pokemon... Honestly, the list goes on and on, but I think Chris felt he could express himself with his comic, and communicate his life story.

Equally interesting, apparently he claimed the comic was aimed at children. You know, despite the aforementioned graphic hedgehog sex. Go fig.

One is clearly written with Megan in mind as a reader

Well, remember that he had no shame in telling her that she was the one he depicted himself finger banging in SheCameForChris.jpg... and telling her that he did it to keep himself from raping her, because I'm sure that's exactly what every woman wants to hear from a greasy manchild who constantly tries groping them and doesn't take "no" for an answer. Compared to that entire fiasco, Chris' Sonichu comics come off as absolutely brilliant.
