Interests 6/22 - Chris at Too Many Games convention - Day 2 - Chris has a meltdown, kicked out of con for boundary issues, kissing attendees

[waheey]

I know its a bad thing, but exposing Chris to KEEMSTAR will cause something bad to happen to Chris.

Definitely, yeah. A whole new generation of weenery would be in store. At least Keemstar deleted the tweets, I guess.
Edit: And Null’s making sure Chris doesn’t feed into it, so that’s good.

Null says it's not gonna happen.

I'm going to sound like one of them dang dirty millenials, but that's victim blaming. They definitely weren't lying when they said asking for a picture isn't the same as asking for a kiss. This is classic Chris mentality, something is either 0% or 100%. He probably thinks an invitation for a picture is the same as inviting physical contact.

Even if they did not directly confront Chris, Chris was still expected to respect boundaries generally agreed upon by social norms. That is something expected of adults, it's on Chris to overcome his autism to learn it, not on others to be expecting him to do it and pre-emptively say no. It's not like it's ok to kiss stranger girls until they vocally protest.

Did Chris learn his lesson? nope. it was other people's fault for getting offended or for getting close to him.

I don't blame them in this case. He was doing that to both dudes and girls. He's lucky he picked the right ones to do that too because a lot of dudes would be ready to fight over something like that. As for the women, #METOO I guess...

A weapon to surpass gender queer.

That Jab guy rubs me the wrong way, I feel like he wanted to stir shit. His tweets make him sound like he's a hero. Cuz I know Chris most likely did make people uncomfortable but that guy was quick to throw chris under the bus .

 

[Silver Octopus]

Chris should change his Twitter handle to: Chris Chan Sonichu @ TooManyGames

Nah, I agree with what you're getting at. Shit like "they could have pushed me away!!1" is classic Chris; because that totally wouldn't have made the situation even worse and looked like an exceptional conflict to any observer.

Whatever his true intentions are we can be sure of one thing, he's an attention whore capitalizing on Chris's infamy.

The plus side is that this was just some garbage con no one really cared about and it gives Chris a chance to learn something. I've asked someone else to talk to him about it because it's a conversation too awkward for me, but hopefully there are other opportunities for him to go to cons. This might be cause for a global convention ban by itself, but maybe not. Every time a convention happens something happens that's interesting. There was no foul play like I initially suspected so in retrospect it's not anything out of the ordinary.

On the plus side, atlease Chris didn't use the bats on the security guard

 

[idosometimes]

Jab knew it was going to get weird. But he changed his stance on Chris after he heard some stuff from other attendees.

I know we are not supposed to use offensive language here, but, darn it, this Jab is a weaselly nincompoop. He immediately started piling on Chris with everyone else. Nothing says "tough guy" like attacking a 40 year old man with the mind of a 7 year old! With apologies for strong language again, I hope someone boxes his ears!

I don't blame them in this case. He was doing that to both dudes and girls. He's lucky he picked the right ones to do that too because a lot of dudes would be ready to fight over something like that. As for the women, #METOO I guess...

Did you look at the photos? Chris was probably one of the toughest people there. The guys there were either skeletons or 350 pound neckbeards. Chris had no worry of coming to physical harm.

 

[BigTubboWithLittleChina]

I have to admit, I love the way that Chris took time out while having his meltdown to position his Sonichu cardboard cut-out next to him in the same pose. They look like a pair of particularly odd Muslims facing some autistic Mecca. But it is nice to see that the yellow guy still means something to ol' CWC.

 

[Silver Octopus]

Did Chris see a lot of "BLOODY, GOREY VIOLENCE" at the convention? Where did he get this idea from that "Likes and Affection" is more taboo to these people?
wait! Could it be true love is outlawed at TooManyGames?! Is Philadelphia for Virgins?!

Chris is his own best troll. Again.

Chris is in that new troon mindset that everything they do is love and affection for their fellow man while everyone else is a hater or bully.

I agree with this. Some people are legitimately very uncomfortable with physical contact. Putting your arm around them for a selfie is one thing, but an unwanted hug and kiss on the cheek is very different. You can't get mad at someone for not wanting Chris to kiss them on the cheek, even if they asked for a selfie. Asking for a picture with someone isn't giving them the right to hug and kiss you
