How did you first find out about Chris?

[Chrisology1337]

Just a thread to share our stories.

I found him about 5 years ago after seeing The Hardcore Kid's Smegged Up Youtuber videos and found him on the list, right after the Angry Homo Kid too.

Believe it or not I found him out on deviantart as a 12 yearold, I thought he drew Amy Rose who was my favorite character at the time so I commented "I like your drawing x3" I don't remember if Chris replied or not but I swear he probably commented back "thank you"
At the time I didn't know who Chris chan was until like my Junior year of Highschool when BrendanielReads read Sonichu.
I actually still have the images in my favorite box on Deviantart:

I could sense his massive waves of autism from the very moment I was born. 2007 finally answered my questions about that lifelong feeling.

 

[Subconcious Offense]

He was always this meme that comes up once a while on the internet, but always looked like just another awkward nerd yet too cringy for me to want to find out more about him. Then one day another instance of him showed up and I finally googled him to see what he was about, and I have been down this rabbit hole with the lot of you ever since.

I was big into ED back in 2007-2008, and came across Chris, I wrote it off as internet sperg so I missed out on a lot of fun. I got reacquainted with Chris when the blue arms saga happened, as it was constantly on the video game tribe of the Ugandan basket weaving BBS where people post Anonymous smoke signals. Decided to look more into, Christine had been ol' internet sperg from the old days, and I got particularly hooked when I read more into Cwciki in early 2015, and have been here ever since.

I discovered him in 2012 when someone wrote a creepypasta about him called Branchland. I wondered what a Sonichu was, looked it up and down the rabbit hole I went. I don't think I'll ever make it out of here.

 

[NIGGO KILLA]

around 2011 i watched a top 10 annoying youtubers video, Chris was number 8

the fallowing year I was traveling for around a week for a family event when i stumbled upon the cwckii, read that shit non-stop on my down time

 

[BB 876]

It had to be maybe 2008-9 or so for me. It's a tiny bit power level-y but after I got home from high school I would check out what's new with our favorite manchild.

I'm pretty sure I discovered chris just by bouncing around ED and eventually finding that one imageboard that had an entire board for him. If it's still active I've completely forgotten about it and I don't think it was /cow/.

 

[Milk Mage]

The first I saw of Chris was from a cringe compilation. I found out about Sonichu through CorruptedGamingShow's videos

 

[A Flying Nun]

I was super late to the party and I don't even remember, really, but I'd say 2012 or so. I think I read that one of the characters in Robot Chicken is based on Chris, got curious what the real thing looked like, but I'm also unsure what the first videos I saw actually were. I just remember my initial search didn't turn up anything good. (somehow, though I might be misremembering and maybe I just lacked the patience to read the wiki/Sonichu comics/watch some of his slower-to-develop videos initially) I think some of the first videos I remember are the Christian and the Hedgehog Boys music tracks, or the videos from when he got in trouble for posting his house tour.

The one that definitely had me sold he was a trainwreck worth watching were the videos where he says he's straight or tries to praise women's bodies in an attempt to look straight. After that he (or rather the archive channels) just went in a favorite list with a bunch of other bad youtubers I've found.

Tarding around ED in 07-08

 

[LongtimeLurker]

I made a MAH BOI joke to my sister and she didn't get it, and I somehow thought to link her to the ED page as explanation. Someone had done up a CWC version, I didn't get the reference, and checked his page out. This was when his most perverse moments were MASTURBATIN AND SQUIRTIN and the shecameforcwc collection. I got a laugh out of him and moved on.

Next time I came across his page, he had a video up insisting that Blanca was real even though his leaked nudes were plastered all over the internet.

Been lurking a long time

 

[ChickenSkinBeanbag]

Sometime in early 2011. I was hanging out with a friend when he came across the early tomgirl pics of Chris and said something like "Holy shit, is that Chris Chan?" I had no clue who he was so my friend filled me in and Chris was just too much of a spectacle for me to ignore.

I used to follow the exploits of the wannabe author Nickolaus Pacione, the man-child who couldn't write coherently, and he would often threaten to either rape or murder the people who mocked his stories. Like Chris, Nick has a larger group who watch him for the laughs than those who genuinely support him.

From time to time, whenever Pacione had another public meltdown for one reason or another, one of my friends would mention this "Chris-Chan" figure, as if he was somehow even more pathetic than Nicky. One afternoon, I looked up Chris on ED, and I stopped reading upon reaching the photo where he had drawn Sonichu on his dick.

A few years later, after the same friend namedropped Chris again, I made my way to the CWCki, read as much as I could, and came to the conclusion that while Chris is pretty disgusting, he has also created enough unintentional comedy to justify keeping an eye on. Some time after that, I registered here.

I swear, we've had this thread before. @Karen Riley ?

 

[Male Soul]

I hate to admit it, but I discovered him this year. To be precise, a day after his 35th birthday.

How? I came across a random Reddit thread, and someone mentioned Chris-Chan. I decided to look him up since he sounded interesting due to being heavily trolled and having his own documentary. I later discovered the CWCki. Ever since, I've became obsessed with this autistic manchild on the internet.

 

[Some JERK]

I swear, we've had this thread before. @Karen Riley ?

Yeah we've had this exact thread before. It's locked now. (I don't know if that makes any difference)

 

[Feline Darkmage]

Honestly since the other one is old and locked I'm okay with a current version with the newer users (and probably some of the older ones again too)

Chris was number 8

Only number 8?

Anyway, I believe I stumbled upon references to him on Tumblr in the early 2010s (Probably 2013 to be exact) and would find the CWCKi after that and the Brendaniel videos about Sonichu happened in 2014. I laughed but never dug any deeper until I lurked here starting in late '15. And I didn't even start lurking this place because of Chris, it was a completely different manchild that @Clay Claymore had made videos about, 03bgood.

And now I can't get off Mr. Chandler's wild ride.

 

[Trilby]

For me, it was around 2014 and through a podcast that brought him up while discussing autism and stating how terrible a person he was. Even I wasn't sure what to think by that so I had to go check, I never left since!
