The "miserable life" Chris mentions is probably 90% his and Barb's own doing. I know I wouldn't want people calling me up and screaming "JULLLAAAYYY!" at me, but that's why you don't dox yourself.

Eh, yeah, but he's not smart enough to know any better. Like little kids running into the highway. Plus a lot of the doxing Chris did was because he was told to. And that's also related to his retardation.

Now, I don't really think he's so miserable because of the trolling. Back during the trolling, before Bob's death, Chris was cranky, sure, but he was still optimistic about girlfriends and shit like that. Part of his depression now is due to a few factors, but maybe one of them is him losing his optimism, but I think the biggest chunk is that Barb is making his life miserable. And then Bob dying and Chris losing the Snyder case also didn't help his happiness.

He does seem to giving up on a lot of things. He no longer writes Sonichu, short stories or "sings". His love quest seems to be even more half-hearted than before. He officially gave up on the game place and Snyder. It seems all he does now is lurk around the Fashion Square with his face looking like a slapped arse.

That boy needs something drive him. Even the trolls were a driving force at one point but now even we can't get a rise out of him.

I think to Chris the Internet, or more specifically the part consisting of ED, imageboards, the CWCki and this forum, is the entire universe. He doesn't understand that the vast majority of the population doesn't know about him, that to do a 180 on his life he'd just need to change his name to Chris Chandler, stop concerning himself with a handful of internet pages and go out into the world... but that's probably too much stress.

Oh hell, he'd be lucky if he could hang around Fashion Square. Barb won't let him.

Well, plus he can't go out into the world while Barb's alive. Unless she goes into a coma or something. That might work.

Why should Chris change? Surely the only logical thing to expect would be for the rest of the world to change. Chris refuses to adapt to suit his environment and instead adapts his environment to suit him. It's also some subtle ego-wanking to believe that the entire world is following his every move rather than just a tiny percentage of the internet population.

One the shock of Barb's eventual death wears off, it's going to be a huge relief because it'll be like going back the old days kind of. He's going to be significantly happier than he is now once he realizes he can go almost anywhere he wants. Talking to waitresses and pacing around the mall isn't much, but he'll be out of the house and free from Barb's nagging.

Well, plus he'll be able to go to bars and local game events and shit like that.

If Chris truly is an independent adult, and Barb has no power of attorney over him, then what's keeping him from saving money and moving out? I know there are tons of reasons and excuses, but what is the biggest hurdle he faces? The inability to save money, his mother, or fear of the real world that he has yet to experience?

It's more complicated than that. He's legally an independent adult. But mentally he's a retard. That's really the extent of it.

Well, the best win. I think Chris would be aware there could be a gradient of potential outcomes (well, in his bizarre fantasy land, anyway). If he got off, but still didn't win the game place, he'd probably say Snyder deserved more, but I don't think he'd complain about it that much. Now actually losing is where a bunch of his bitching came from.

And like you've said before, Bob's death and the trial probably finally reached the threshold for Chris's ability to deny reality. Nowadays he can no longer pretend to himself that the future isn't looking bright, and that there is no sweetheart coming.

If Chris truly is an independent adult, and Barb has no power of attorney over him, then what's keeping him from saving money and moving out?

A very, very strong desire for someone to come rescue him instead. Even if he is starting to realize that no rescue is coming, it seems like he'd rather say "I can't win the way I want, so fuck it, I'm giving up".

Chris need to realize among other things that he need male friends. I think most of us jerks here have bros that knows a girl that knows a girl who give blowjobs for jello shots and she would totally put you on her. Having mainly women as friends isnt going to cut it because 90% of the time you will hit the friendzone and we all know how chris feel about that

I always envision it with a pie chart. All of humanity is the whole pie. Men are half, Chris cuts them out. Then of all the women, he cuts out the slices that are minorities, poor, already have children, don't have high-paying jobs, and of course, the ones who aren't looking for a fat tomgirl to Mountain Dew, since he tells himself that people aren't worth anything if he can't fuck them. So out of the whole pie, Chris is left with this tiny, tiny sliver of people he's willing to associate with. Problem is, the entire pie never saw much appeal in Chris in the first place, but now there's even less chance anyone will want to be around him because he thinks beggars can be choosers.

Now, Marvin will point out that what he claims and what he does are two different things, and this is true. However, Chris won't ever even have the opportunity for life to present him with chances to try new friendships if he's constantly telling himself that those people aren't worth anything to him.

Combination of an inability to save money with the realization that Barb can't do much. Both of which have to due with mental facilities (or lack of). Barb could possibly haul his ass back to 14 Branchland Court however, if she proves/convinces the police that Chris can't take care of himself.

This is true, so he's not going to pursue the men for friends. But he's not going to pursue women normally anyway. Really, I think that his male versus female sexual preference would only restrict which people he'd approach on his own. If someone approached him on their own initiative, he'd have a pretty close chance of accepting them, male or female. Not equal, but still pretty close.

But of course, these are extremely hypothetical situations. Without existing friends, Chris almost never meets new friends.

Well that's clear to just about everyone, but it isn't clear to Chris, and there's the issue. Chris has 'stalled'. Every idea or plan that he came up with on his own has failed. Sonichu is a bust. The Love-Quest was a major failure. Every internet sweetheart turned out to be a troll. Every real-life sweetheart either turned out to be already taken, gay or outright told him to go fuck himself. Now if it were most anyone else, they'd say "Shit... nothing i've come up with has worked, i guess it's time to start re-thinking my beliefs and actions. Maybe it's time to give having other male friends a shot? Maybe it's time to change myself and listen to the shitloads of advice that has been heaped on me for years?"

But it's Chris. So no, he's not going to do that. He's going to sit in his house w Barb and blame everyone but himself for his failure. In his world, the fact that all of his plans failed just means that his goals are made impossible due to the ill-will and mean-spirited actions of everyone else.

 

[TastyWoodenBadge]

I'd wager that this is about as far as he's come to understanding that Sonichu never had one genuine fan, outside of Sonichuizcool.

If I can remember correctly didn't Chris still act like a dick towards her.

Wouldn't he just think the person was a troll though?

And I agree that the trolls didn't do this to him; as angry and upset as it made him to battle with Leary or Cash at least it gave his something that his life is now completely void of: stimulation. Yes, his idea to pose as Jenkins was by any metric moronic to say the least, but at least he sat down and thought! He tried to construct a plan, he was mentally and emotionally involved in something. Now, he's got nothing, and he's rotting away before our eyes.

Eating shit, drinking shit, sitting alone in a dark room with your mother all day without any kind of external stimuli or interest would drive anyone insane. It would constitute as a cruel and unusual form of punishment and he's stuck in this loop of depression.

I don't think Chris wants fans anymore (I think the post was just intended to get people to leave him alone), vague wishing aside I don't think Chris wants anything anymore. I think he's drowned in his own depression.

Oh yeah, definitely. But Chris dashes the chances of anyone ever approaching him just by having a shitty attitude toward so many groups of people - people would see that and say "fuck that, this guy's not worth my time".

But like you say, extremely hypothetical. It's hard to meet new people if you're not already hanging with somebody, and it's harder still when Meemaw wants you to stay indoors all days so you and she can marathon Jeopardy together.

and it gets harder and harder as you get older.

 

[Butta Face Lopez]

I sincerely doubt Barb and Chris watch Jeopardy.

Wheel of Fortune I could see, absolutely. That show is particularly popular among the old, infirm, and stupid.

 

[Alec Benson Leary]

^You're right. Ironically, Jeopardy seems more like it would be up Bob's alley.
