Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

Is Chris just barely getting by? I assumed he was given just enough to live maybe half his old life.
Sure, Chris has money to buy stupid luxuries and food and whatever, but Caden's still taking the lion's share without Chris even realizing it, and moreover in comparison to Brianna Wu's seemingly endless vault of cash thanks to Frank, Chris couldn't afford a new car, let alone bankroll a political campaign of any size.
 
Looks like Wikipedia really scrubbed the Ruckersville article of any references to "Honor Roll", even in earlier versions.

Why does Chris call Meg from Family Guy "Megan Marie Griffin"? I never questioned it until someone pointed it out. They've said "Megan" once or twice in the show (and one time Megatron in a throwaway gag) but, as far as I can tell, they've never said her middle name was 'Marie' in any episode of the series. Where the fuck did 'Marie' come from?

Thats the benefit of being a simple minded person, all you need in life is a few lego sets and whatever else the toys r us cartoons are advertising this year to be happy in life.

I think that was Megan's middle name and Chris treats her and Meg from Family Guy like they are the same person, hence he wants to bang both of them and will never get over it.
What happens to Chris if Caden goes to jail, do you think Chris has the capacity to keep making the mortgage payments and the streams to make money to make said payments or will he get lazy, stop streaming, and get kicked out due to nonpayment?

Depends if Chris is even named in the documents for who is supposed to be living there. Non-zero chance he gets kicked out for squatting.

What definitely will happen is the Etsy money stops coming in for Chris because no way in hell did Caden let Chris have access to that, lest Chris discover the true nature of the grift at his expense.

I guess Chris' name is on some documents somewhere if the group home was ok with letting him go after just some months, something to convince them he wouldn't end up on the streets (anytime soon).

Watched some old CWC clips earlier and it occurred to me that the early content now feels strangely cosy and distant.

There's something really earnest about how it encapsulates 2000s culture, and channels the openness and optimism that accompanied the democratisation of the internet.

It's small things like the excitement about buying physical media from the mall, and the Frutiger Aero aesthetics of his consoles, and the sad but wholesome simplicity of his 18th birthday party.

Not to get too esoteric about Chris Chan of all people, but those videos have a very potent, nostalgic aura to them that cause me to ponder the passage of time.

Ah, my twin. A philosopher, comedian and overanalyzing zeitgeister of every YouTube video I've ever watched in the last 3 years.

You even mentioned Frutiger Aero! Fantastic!

Yes, Chris encapsulates a simplier time.

I don't know if I would say a time where I was full of hope, but maybe wonder and a greater sense of curiosity.
 
Wait, it’s the Day of Trans Visibility on Easter? If this isn’t a sign that god is telling us Chris really is Jesus then I don’t know what will convince you atheists otherwise.

I wonder how many conventions have officially banned Chris.

We know that BabsCon banned Chris recently. I wonder if other conventions will speak out about the bans.

Yeah and it was something that Null explicitly warned Chris about, years before the incest saga, when he was thrown out from a con because he kept touching and kissing people without permission. He basically told Chris that cons' organizers talk with each other and if they knew he had a reputation for being a sex pest then they would pre-emptively ban him from all cons.
 
Does anyone know the genre, or name, of that "old folks home" or "mental institution" music that is playing in the background of the rental house (and later) videos? Example - heard in the background of the "shovel mech" video.

The only way I can describe it is "senior citizen easy listening old Hollywood classic score." it brings to mind potpurri, stale bread, disinfectant, hospital gowns, oxygen tubes, etc. Distinctive and depressing.

That's funny, I see troons all the time online. Maybe we need a Day of Trans Invisibility or a Day of Trans Shut the Fuck Up for One Fucking Day Please. Biden picking this of all days to celebrate these fucking demons is positively Satanic.

Grim.
 
Cwcki says it's "The Hills Are Alive", from The Sound of Music.
I tried Shazam with the music from the last house tour - the one where Barb lays on a mattress on the floor looking like she could be dead - but it couldn't find it. I guess it's unlicensed easy listening music.
Thank you, I hadn't thought of looking at video transcripts on the cwcki. Apparently another one is called "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square"
The impression I get is during that era they always had this stuff playing nonstop. That is like guantanamo-bay. I wouldn't make it a day.
Not that the individual songs themselves are awful, but you get what I mean.
