Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

[Chrus Chundlur]

What about that white stole Chris wore when he graduated?

Maybe Borb went "fuck it" and just bought him one, or they talked with the high school to play pretend at graduation, same way they "hired" friends for Chris.

Or maybe he actually was on the honor roll, but undeservedly and out of retard pity, that being why Bob said he wasn't many years later,

for the love of god when is chris's trial

It was going to be sometime in late Julay.

Or maybe he actually was on the honor roll, but undeservedly and out of retard pity

That's possible. There's also the theory Chris was in remedial classes, or he had a really easy semester.

But it shouldn't be a surprise at all if Borb managed to convince Chris he was on the honor roll when he never was.

Maybe he ended up asking Barb and she told him the truth, same as (it seems) she finally told Chris about his gal-pals being hired help at some point (he put Bob "negotiating" friends with the director on his Lego high school after all, which seems outside what trolls told him, as far as I know).

I'm not sure. Chris's entire young childhood revolves around being left with a neighbor babysitter for quite a long time, and I've always got the impression that it was frequent and a lot. Pre-Fire, they had various beer advertising displays up in their house. And this is the Chandlers we're talking about, "responsibly and in moderation" is not something they would exactly embrace. They seem the type to just drop their tard baby off with whomever so they could go out and have fun as much as they could. I doubt Chris would be that hung up about getting locked in his room if it only happened once, when he was 16 months old.

You make a good argument here. I wonder if there may have been some Chris related incident that made the Chandlers change their lifestyle, if they were drinkers in the past.

I said this somewhere else on here, but I think the more likely explanation is that “honor roll” means less than we think it does. Kind of like colleges having different cum laude designations, a lot of high schools have different honor roll levels. They can retain an exclusive distinction at the top while patting people like Chris on the back

The authenticity of his experiences aside, Chris has never been better off than he was at high school. A controlled environment which gave him authority figures outside the house and some degree of normal human socialisation. The happy ending would have involved an internet savvy wrangler who could have steered him away from the public eye, a slow in the head boyfriend free gal pal and a functioning group home rather than a festering hoarders cesspit.

Do you think Barb pretty much regrets giving birth to Chris now? Do you think she possible feels a sudden overwhelming sense of guilt and despair about how she’s acted throughout her life because of this. Do you think if she manages to recover and live a few more years she’d try to rectify some old relationships and just be a kind a person she can be for her last years? Is it even possible?

I guess that's like Margaret Thatcher regretting pushing for Jimmy Savile's knighthood and dies two years after Savile and a year before more of he allegations erupted. I had the same question myself, and like Chris, I doubt Barb would regret it, despite all Chris put her though. If she admits that, then that means she was wrong for the years of shitty mainstreaming. Remember, Chris got all of the narc and egoist tendencies from her.

Doubt it. The inability to learn from past mistakes, the complete and utter refusal to owe up to ones own shortcomings, the perpetual victim complex and the desire to live in filth both literally and figuratively are hard-coded into the Chandler-DNA.

Well, really more the Weston DNA. Unfortunately Bob got suckered into it. If Bob re-married to a more stable, competent person, there would be a Chris, but that Chris would be more successful. Imagine in an alternate scenario, how Bob could still be living and could be going through a functional Dream Studio.

after reading about the suitress, I finally arrived to see the extent of irony in Chris's story ending with him saying no to a real girl actually interested in him (and maybe even to the idea of bearing Crystal).

1000% I agree with this. Though we know very little about Chris' half siblings, they seem to be far more stable and successful people in comparison to Cole, Chris' other half-sibling, and Chris shares more in common with Cole than he does with David or Carol. He also shares more in common with Barb than with Bob.

I guess Chris prefers fantasy over reality. You're right about the irony. After decades of being trolled with fake girlfriends, here comes a real girl with a real interest in Chris. It would be interesting either seeing Fiona live in 14 BLC, or Chris moving in with her to start a family.

Those Weston genes are strong.

That's possible. There's also the theory Chris was in remedial classes, or he had a really easy semester.

Going off his "A Week With Christian Chandler", it seems he was taking normal classes. I immediately have doubts about his honor roll since he claims to have a trigonometry class. Though, if he was taking tard classes, he might not readily admit it since he was dripping with disdain for the other speds at the time.

He prefers “easy” and “right now” over waiting. It might have also been in the back of his mind that it could have been another scam. Barb, he knows, is a real person.

If Fiona was in one room and Barb was down the hall in another, Chris would’ve given Fiona a chance first.

So Chris is like a follower of both Nurgle (entropy, decay) and Slaanesh at the same time?

[Jason Wynn]

You’re both wrong, Chris most resembles Sterculius, the Roman god of feces

 

[NortonAntiVirus]

3 months until the next court appearance, I do wonder what they are doing with him right now, maybe they are giving him therapy? If so, poor shrink, hope they follow his rambles.

No news from Barb either, wonder how she is doing, the last info we got was about her being taken care of by Senior care givers and some family, but that was 6 months ago.

The overlap isn’t unreasonable.

I think this is the first time I’m hearing about senior care givers. I only remember that her sister was managing her life.

Hmm, I found it on the Cwcki, looking through the letters I can't find a source for it, maybe the cwcki is wrong?

Send a message to one of the cwcki mods, can't find anything about those senior caregivers, maybe they have a source for the information.

Mod says: "It's just an educated speculation based on Barb's state."

Chris is very much his Mothers Tom-Girl, Chris had nothing to aspire too in his life apart from Barb.

Kids and let's be honest here tend to take a lot of inspiration from the adults that bring them up Barb was essentially a secretary who retired around the time Chris should have entered the work force or gone onto more education and Bob was retired for much of his life so he never saw anyone really go out to work and bring home the Bacon, and out of the Barb / Bob adults Bob was more likely to be stern with him and Barb was more likely to coddle him so he gravitated towards her as a path of least resistance with lots of fuzzy-wuzzys.

Going off his "A Week With Christian Chandler", it seems he was taking normal classes. I immediately have doubts about his honor roll since he claims to have a trigonometry class. Though, if he was taking tard classes, he might not readily admit it since he was dripping with disdain for the other speds at the time.

I think Chris was just given that sort of thing for Good Behaviour not the quality of his work, we don't (or at least didn't) have that sort of thing when I was in Secondary school here in the UK but at the end of most years there was a little award creimony for each year group so if someone got perfect attendance they got a little prize and a certificate, or if someone had done something really good outside of school like raised money for charity etc they got a merit certificate, it was mostly just a nice way to round out a end of year afternoon and pretty much everyone got something.

My guess is Chris got his Honour Roll and thought it was for something like his Art or Music lessons but it was for something basic like Perfect attendance, 100% homework returned on time, no overdue library books, etc, etc, and when it wasn't for his Art he chimped out and knocked away the guys hand who was giving it to him and ran off to cry because he didn't get what he wanted / thought he was entitled to.

It was likely given to him as a simple anyone can do it kinda of thing so the Special Ed student had something nice on his record etc.

He prefers “easy” and “right now” over waiting. It might have also been in the back of his mind that it could have been another scam. Barb, he knows, is a real person.

That's the easy way to get him to do anything in the short term give him a goal with a varying reward - Cary this bucket over the hill in 5 minutes to get some water and bring it back for £1m in cash or take the long route around the mountain get the same water and bring it back in 20 minutes but you get £100k he'll chose the £100k option as he thinks it's less effort.

 

[Pickle Inspector]

He's more like Chaos Undivided if Tzeentch was retarded.

I dunno, I’m sure Tzeentch would love for his followers to open up a connection to a universe where you can create any kind of demon you want by just imagining it, even better if both universes can be merged together!
