He does. Do you think he doesn't get non-stop weenery in his email inbox and on eBay? Plus he's sold like 80 medallions, and for a while (No idea if he still does) he believed that Sonichu had one billion fans.

Yeah, but on the other hand, he has expressed his thoughts concerning the trolling and a recuring idea seems to be it's very limited to locals who hold a grudge against him. Sure there's 4_cent Garbage and ED, but those seem to be only puppets operated by the true masterminds behin the trolling. In one outburst he blamed Snyder and Megan to be behind all this...

Movies like Frozen aren't up his alley, I think. Remember how he ranted about how Asperchu looked worse cause it was done by PC and not by hand? I figure this is exactly his attitude towards cartoons, too.

I'm not sure. I think he started with the conclusion "Asperchu is bad" and then backfilled the logic. I don't think that logic can be applied elsewhere.

I was going to say that given Chris played "You've Got A Friend In Me" from Toy Story in his KCWC Broadcast (I assumed since he played the song that he'd seen Toy Story), I don't think he'd hate Frozen for being done by PC.

Then again, has he actually watched any of the Toy Story films or has he only heard the song?

He boycotted it since the main character wasn't a sonic plush, and there were no LEGO

You know, I didn't see anyone bring this up with regards to Chris getting rejected as a sperm donor, but it's probably worth mentioning that sperm banks are highly selective. It's a business, not a democracy, and the women who pay to get their eggs fertilized tend to want the best their money can buy. Hence, not only do they screen pretty heavily for health issues (relatively common things like diabetes will get you rejected by most sperm banks) but also on the basis of attractiveness (they tend to reject anyone who is too short, overweight; even certain ethnicities if you can believe that) and education (college degrees, especially from Ivy Leagues and the like). So yeah, an unemployed obese manchild like Chris who barely got his CADD degree isn't likely to qualify. Not to mention that they'd want full medical and family histories, which quite frankly I don't think Chris would be competent enough to provide them with.

So yeah, another failure in Chris' life, but its not exactly surprising given that a significant majority of us would likely be passed up by most sperm banks. The key difference is that most of us aren't desperate or hopeless enough to try making money by donating sperm. I mean, most of us could at least get a job flipping burgers or something before that.

True, except that I don't think it was really about money for Chris. He wants a daughter, for some reason, and he saw this as a way to get it.

He has always insisted he wants a biological daughter, not to adopt. Which I guess I can understand. But the sperm bank is a whole new level, since he would have no involvement with parenting the daughter. In most cases, he would not be able to even find out who his biological children are.

I wonder what would have happened if the sperm bank had accepted it. Suppose they had a policy to just accept all donations, and throw out the samples from undesirable people.

Would Chris have constantly pestered them to find his kids, or would he conclude that Crystal must be out there and his dream had come true?
 
Little Big Planet 3 is being released soon, will we see posts from Chris about it ?
And Toy Story 4 is also in the works as well, will Cole give a review or will he walk away?
 
Theatrical sperging ahead.

I've said before that Chris's life would be perfect fodder for a play in the style of Samuel Beckett - absurd and futile and all that jazz - but it really struck me recently that his life could also be the Tennessee Williams play that never got written. It has everything: the overbearing mother, the (emotionally) absent father, the booze, the desperate need for illusion, the booze, and the booze.

There isn't a hard and fast rule about it. There is no magic number of negative ratings or ratio of negative or postive ratings that will get you automatically banned.

But the things that get a lot of negative ratings also lead to bannings, so there is a strong correlation. And a moderator on the fence about banning you could look at all your negative ratings and say "Ah, everyone else thinks he is a jackbag too, I probably should go ahead with the ban."

Is that helpful?

Thank you! That is very helpful.
 
Post ratings tend to be like a indicator of post quality. If your ratings are bad, stop badposting. If you can't figure out how, lurk moar. Not a difficult concept.

Basically do what I do: when in doubt, either don't post or post like Catparty.

Isn't that basically how Cole described it? Hell, his version even had a paternity subplot, and the gun on the mantelpiece literally going off (and almost hitting him). He's got to be kicking himself for not making the Tennessee Williams reference first.

There's also a parody of The Glass Menagerie called For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls by Christopher Durang, in which the daughter's encounter with her gentleman caller is replaced with a slow-witted son being set up on a prank date with a butch woman. Which should not remind anyone of anything, no sir.
