I have to be honest I don't see him interacting at cons that much. At least not any more than necessary (talking to vendors, maybe asking questions at a panel). While I see Marvin's point, and agree to an extent, I don't necessarily see it as all that significant. Although I guess interacting in general is a lot more than not at all so there's that.

Didn't he attend some dinky-fuck anime con a year ago?

He went to Anime Mid-Atlantic in 2004 and 2005. I don't know if that's what you're thinking of.

No. I think it was more recent than that. Last Winter in fact. I was pretty surprised to hear about it myself.

if i remember correctly, it was madicon in richmond, and it was only for one day and :snorlax: went along.

If he was smart, and he's not, it would be a good way to make some cash while working with his infamy. Embrace it, sign his name and write :julay: underneath. Sell copies of Sonichu for a few bucks. He could make a living, not a great one, but one. Fuck, he could probably get some cons to pay him to show up. Happens all the time with z-grade celebs. Including way more boring internet famous people than Chris.

he probably could pull it off even today. otakon is in a few weeks... :ween:
 
It was Madicon, March 13th of this year. Unfortunately no trolls took any pictures and it didn't inspire him to resume Sonichu.

One day, Barb dies in her little niche in the hoard.

Not wanting to deal with it, Chris fills the room with junk and seals it off from the rest of the house. She becomes just another of the many bad odors found at 14BC.

The death unreported, Barb's retirement and social security keep coming in. Donning tom-girl attire, and with Barb's ID, Chris cashes the checks, along with his own :tugboat: he can now buy all the games, toys and bras he pleases.

After years of neglect, the house starts falling apart. Air conditioner stops working, Chris buys the cheapest window unit he can find and tries to keep one room liveable. A hole in the roof is ignored, the affected room closed off and left to the elements. The remaining space slowly fills with McDonald's wrappers and vermin.

One day, after the mail box is stuffed to the limit with unpaid bills, local hooligans throw rocks through the windows of the house they assume has been abandoned for years. Eventually, some official comes to investigate only because the taxes on the property haven't been paid. The place is condemned. Venturing inside, 2 bodies and a dozen feral cats are found.

This sounds plausible....
But you forgot two important things OPL needs for his lifestyle: Electricity and an internet connection. Those are the two bills that he'll pay like clockwork. Even someone as delusional as Da Great Director Chandler knows that he needs Electricity to power the Life Upgrade, and he needs an un-cut-down innernet to post his trophies to PS3 site.

When the trophies stop being posted, THEN you know that Chris'tard has finally been taken to his final SlumberCrash by the TrollReaper.

Yep, it's like Marvin has said. He can (potentially) hold off a sweetheart's wrath with lies and bullshit. But he knows that he can't bullshit the power company. Either they receive a check, or the power is turned off.

My intended implication was that the mail stops being collected and bills not paid after his term as Mayor-for-Life has expired. The Great Director may be cheap when it comes to many things, but if it's something he needs for the video games then he'll spend whatever it takes.
 
There's a big difference between being asocial and not being good at socialising. Chris isn't asocial, he's just crap at socialising and right now Barb's keeping him indoors. Remember, when Barb didn't have Chris collared he did actually get out and about of his own accord. He chose to go to the mall and loiter, as well as going to the Game Place etc. It wasn't something he had to do, but he wanted to. He also went to some anime cons in the past and he was very much looking forward to his ten year high school reunion.

These all suggest Chris does actually want to socialise, he just has no real opportunities. Once Barb pops her clogs and (if) Chris gets over it I'm sure he'll be eager to get out and about then, even if he'll wind up no better off sweetheart-wise than he is now.

I think if Chris went to an anime con, there were definitely be people who would know exactly who he was, and it would prove embarrassing for him.

Any con with a core of nerds will know exactly who he is. We've mentioned it before; he should capitalize on this and charge, like, $5 for an autograph or something. Seriously. Hell, I'd pay that. Or take Bob's LP collection to sell. How many nerds would like to own a piece of the Lumberjack's rare LP collection? I'd buy a few albums just because I'm a bit of a Bob fan.

If he was smart, and he's not, it would be a good way to make some cash while working with his infamy. Embrace it, sign his name and write :julay: underneath. Sell copies of Sonichu for a few bucks.

I agree with you on this. If Chris was smart he would have tried to market himself. Atleast he could have some income coming in that is not from his tug boat. I am shocked he did not try to become a youtube partner.

That's actually a damn good point. I wonder if he called up Otakon HQ and was like "It is I, the famous Christian Weston Chandler" if they'd actually give him a booth. You know what...I'd probably want his autograph. But they'd probably require him to shower.

Anime cons could be the promised land for Chris. I went to one a few years ago and weird guys stood around holding "hug me" signs like it was a normal thing.

in related news I've never gone to another anime con
Chris went to an anime con for a couple years and met Monica Rial, voice of Hyatt from Excel Saga and Stocking Anarchy one year, but after that, trolls happened.

I've been to an anime con once a year since 2006. It's a ton of fun. Of course, going to one requires having social skills and cleanliness: con-goers may be a nutty bunch, but even they won't have much patience for foul-odored dipsticks.

I used to go to anime cons pretty regularly in the early 2000's, and we always ran into what we called "fat, smelly otaku". You'd run into the same gigantic, ass-scented neckbeards, crowded around some hentai table. So smelliness seemed to be right at home with several of the attendees, sadly.

Yknow I though the OP's assessment was dark but... damm.
 
See, from what I have read, Chris does need social interaction, something Barb simply doesn't let him have, but at the same time, Barb is one of the few things keeping Chris alive at this point. He needs Barb out of his life for his life to improve, but then he also needs Barb in his life to be a caretaker for him (unless Rocky finds him some other caretaker, however highly unlikely that may be), so it's a cruel paradox.

I would not wish that on anyone.

I agree with you on this. If Chris was smart he would have tried to market himself. Atleast he could have some income coming in that is not from his tug boat. I am shocked he did not try to become a youtube partner.

I brought celebs in to Cons before (long story, bad outcome) and you would be shocked who gets the attention. If Chris were to hit Anime and big Comic Cons he could make a bit of bank. He might even get his crappy comic some non-troll recognition. Hell, I would wrangle for airfare, hotel and a per diem for the man child; I bet somebody would pay it. (most big cons are expected to pay all expenses for autographing celebs, not all, but many.) Shit, they pay for people that appeared in Star Wars for 2.5 seconds. Hell, a bunch of cons paid for a guy who claimed to be Jawa #2 for years and was finally called out on in in 2007 or so. There are "celebs" who rank under Stormtrooper #489-2A even that rake in some decent cash.

If they can do it, Chris can do it. Fuck. If I could actually e-mail the idiot without getting called a fucking troll I would try to set him up with a friend of mine to explore possibilities. Seriously. At the very least he would get a free vacation to a Convention with a few bucks in his pocket. He could, if nothing else, hit local cons like "Virgil" from the WWF who tends to pay his own way to many of these. Drive the broken Caddy to a few local Cons a year and go from there.

We could then have the Convention Saga as Chris signs autographs and actually, for the first time in his life, supports himself. Think of all the Vidya.
 
I think you guys have missed something (I did a post search, sorry if someone else already mentioned it) - he won't be completely alone. It isn't human company, but he would still have his dogs, Clover and Snoopy (if they outlive Barb and don't die a gruesome Q-Sand related anal plugging internal asplosion). Maybe he'll have a throwback to Patti and treat them more like anthropomorphic animals rather than just dogs? Might it be too fantastical to go as far as to say that maybe he would 'channel' Sonichu and Rosechu through the dogs, and talk to them as if they were real and right in front of him, rather than in his head?

On a darker note, he has said once before (albeit to please a sweetheart) that he would in fact fuck a female dog. Maybe if he can't get hookers anymore, or gets bored of them, he may well resort to the closest thing in his possession. After all, dogs are unquestioningly loyal, will be your friend for life, and you don't have to give them gift baskets to say thank you...a couple of Bonios will do nicely.
 
chris's inevitable post-barb menagerie and playland will put neverland ranch to shame

ps suggesting that he would fuck a dog is a little much, he says stupid shit to people without really understanding the words coming out of his mouth

On the bright side, do you think he'll start making bizarre videos again to escape his extreme solitary confinement to the hoard?

Of course not. We can dream, though...

What do you guys think will result from such loneliness?
He should start e-begging and making live shows on live-streaming video websites like blogtv or vaughnlive.
