Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

it's also probably pretty profitable. $15 for a soap that 99.99% of the time will only have $1 inside is a mad profit margin. Amazon reviews show pleeeenty of people think they can get more than $1, and in between greedy people, people buying them as jokes and people who do actually buy them to entice children to shower, they probably have a pretty good market

I don't know why it isn't considered illegal gambling. In fact, it's a variant of the famous scam that gave corrupt politician "Soapy" Smith his name.

However, the only disclaimers I've seen is that apparently Montana does consider this illegal gambling so they won't send there.

"Sorry, this item cannot be shipped to Montana, due to state gambling regulations."

My personal guess is it probably is illegal gambling in most of these states, but that only Montana has actually given enough of a shit to tell this operation to stay the fuck out of their state.

Is Barb autistic?

She's a bit inept, and clearly lacking in empathy.

Autism is genetic, so this would explain why her boys are so... muddled while Bob's children with his first wife are very capable.

I seem to recall reading that Chris does have a severely autistic cousin, though how close and on which side of the family I don't recall. So possibly it was already in the family. Although the fact that Bob and Barb were both rather older than most parents wouldn't have helped.

I don't know, Barb might be autistic, or she might just be a sociopathic asshole who's not as smart as she thinks she is. When she was born, they still burned autistic kids for being possessed by Satan, so it was unlikely to be spotted if she did have the condition.

I think I found where Chris may have gotten the inspiration for the line "toys-to-life gameful": the first line of this review for Lego Dimensions:
http://www.gameinformer.com/games/l...ive/2015/09/27/when-brick-worlds-collide.aspx

"Lego Dimensions is the year’s best toys-to-life game, injecting the buildable fun of Lego toys into a hilarious adventure that sees Batman fighting side-by-side with Gandalf, Doctor Who, Homer Simpson, Scooby Doo, Portal’s Chell, the Ghostbusters, and dozens of other well-known characters."

something i genuinely hope happens is that chris lives long enough for a virtual reality machine like that shit in fallout 3 to be invented so he can spend the rest of his life in some sort of manifestation of cwcville. no more trolls. no more worries. just sonichu.

Do we have any idea how successful CWC has been in peddling his strange wares since he started posting advertisements regularly?

Not sure if this has ever been asked before, but I was wondering how long until Chris croaks based off of his unhealthy lifestyle. Personally, I don't think he'll live very long once Barb goes. She's a shitty mother, but they depend a lot on each other.

He can get pretty paranoid about his health sometimes. He's got free health insurance and isn't afraid to make use of it. Chris' health isn't great, but he's not going to keel over in the next ten years. It's not like he's ADF.

She relies on him, not really vice versa.

Schizophrenia will do that decades before virtual reality becomes viable.

No, I don't think inheritance is income.

No, but there is the death tax, though i dont think Barb has enough assets for it to apply. That house cant be worth the 200k needed for the death tax to hit. The land itself might be worth something if its sizable, but Ive never gotten a real feel for how big it is.

Here's some more questions for you Marvin. Has Chris had his wisdom teeth taken out? And has he ever been called to perform jury duty or is he exempt from that because of his disability?

Well so far as "would Chris lose his tugboat?" the answer is no.

There are also rumors that there might be debt on the house and so Chris might not get it anyway.

Yes.

Having never had my wisdom teeth out, is keeping them as a souvenir common?

He's not (inherently) exempt because of his disability. He might get rejected during jury selection (maybe? I don't know), but lots of people get rejected anyway.

And as far as I know, he hasn't been called for jury duty.

The federal estate tax exemption has been hovering around 5 million for the last few years. A quick google says that Virginia repealed their estate tax in 2007. inheritance doesn't effect the tugboat because it's not gainful activity. If Chris is also on SSI it could effect that though.

My question is why does he think changing himself to a women would help his progress in life ? Like yeah I've herd the whole if you can't get a women be a women but I think with him its more deeper then again I'm probably over analyzing it this is Chris after all ... But I honestly don't think he wants to part ways with his dick .
