Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

lol

 

[Apocalypso]

Nah, I didn't think so either. :p

 

[TrippinKahlua]

Is Ivy a real person then, especially with her whole suicide thing? I know that's dumb to ask, but I must know.

Ivy is dead. Ryan killed her.

And Vivian wasn't Clyde.

And q-sands are a quarter of a sandwich.
And Chris banged a hooker. Totes for real.

Anything else we missed?

What will happen when Barb dies?

 

[Someone in a Tree]

Given their increased importance in Chris's life, should Legos now be considered a major relic? Or, at the very least, the high school he created?

 

[FifthColumn]

Was Bob a "good person" at all? I don't want to be judgmental, and I know there is good and bad to every person on this earth.
But I mean good from a general sense. Was he kind and charitable, honest and considerate?
I still don't know what sort of a parent he was in regards to Chris. Did he ever take an interest in his schoolwork, or his life in general? Did he want him to have a future, at least being able to do some sort of trade, if not a job that required higher education?
I have heard that he avoided special ed help early on for fear he woudl be institutionalized... yet that fear/ old school thinking can only go so far on his refusal to consult with autism based experts for guidance in how to help his son. Any thoughts (Marvin?)

Borb homeschooled Chris in fifth grade, so there's that. There's very little information about that time period though so whether Barb or Bob took more of an active role in that process, and what kind of stuff they taught and how, we do not know. Also, Bob was the one who switched Chris from a Marketing major to CADD, so he may have thought Chris still had a future outside welfare at that point.

Honestly there's not much on either Borb in general (particularly Bob). For the most part the information we have comes from Chris and the rare instances of them appearing on phone or in videos. While we can all agree Barb is batshit we can't pinpoint all of her crazy the way we can with Chris. We have a sketchy background on her but hardly the big details.

Bob even less so. On here he's either "Hard working old man who tried and couldn't keep up" or "Crazy old racist who burned crosses." I think he's in between but even then we have such little information that it's hard to get a real judgement one way or the other.

If a guy were going to rummage through the remains of Chris's house for Bob's clothes and all the old VHS tapes, what would be the best course of action for doing this?
Also Chris is still a cultural virgin.

 

[Holdek]

Heh, thanks. I mean, there's not much that's that distinctive about me. I just have old friends involved with Chris trolling.

Don't be so modest, Marv. You're a gherkin among cornichons

Oh, and I don't want to misrepresent myself, I'm not Chris' friend. I'm merely interested in the subject of him.

Does Chris ever see something like this

Spoiler

and realize how Twilight Zone it is that he has such a fandase? I mean beyond his regular childish anger at the trolls? Just how fucking weird his universe became for no particularly great reason?

And Chris banged a hooker. Totes for real.

I refuse to believe! My mind is closed on the subject

 

[IwegalBadnik]

Chris [was aimed at] a Marketing major [before outside intervention]

If Chris was actually aiming at a marketing major at any point, that's pretty goddamn funny.

The guy is a pathological liar. Now, that could be a pretty good characteristic for a salesman to possess, I admit. But Chris would have never lasted at a salesman--look at the knife salesman routine. He would have either been besieged by people he had defrauded or just resigned to (more) financial failure due to his shitty spending habits or poor handling of negotiations.

Is Ivy a real person then, especially with her whole suicide thing? I know that's dumb to ask, but I must know.

AFAIK, Chris had Ivy's phone number and called her several times, so she was either a real girl or a guy with a voice that was feminine enough to fool Chris. Her name was fake either way.

I got my top wisdom teeth out today. Despite the top teeth being significantly less problematic to recover from than the bottom teeth, I'm still laying in my mom's bed with her having taken the day off work (which is really damn difficult for her, even though she can work from home) to care for me, change my gauze, provide painkillers and nausea medicines, make sure I'm comfortable, grab whatever shit (such as my laptop) I ask for, make me food if I so request it.

Stories like this make me scratch my head, because I've had three of my wisdom teeth removed (thankfully one at a time) and contrary to what I've been told, those have been the easiest dental experiences I have had. I didn't even need painkillers most of the time. Have I just been super lucky?

The removal of all four of my wisdom teeth in one go was an experience that I would not call pleasant, but not label my hardest day either. Before the operation, I was sedated. The last thing I remember before the procedure was the doctor telling me about the sedative and I do not recall him having finished his sentence. The next thing I knew, I awoke without my wisdom teeth but able to walk (though not with enough stability to do so without a cane). Other than a brief bit of instability caused by the sedative's effect on my body and some bleeding, I was not really torn up too badly and was quite comfortable later that day. The only real concession I had to make in the aftermath of that procedure was a diet of ice cream and soup. It was hardly torture--though, on the other hand, it was the week of Thanksgiving...

In fewer words, I found the specter of this procedure rather undaunting after having faced it, indeed, the needle was much more of a concern in retrospect.

My recommendations to anyone whose procedure is imminent or has just been done: don't eat anything that can fragment or is prone to break up (ex. cookies, chips, etc.) within a week of the operation to avoid potential infections in the craters left by the teeth; and, if possible, arrange for a dentist appointment a week or ten days after the procedure to get clearance from a medical official specialized in that field to resume your normal diet.

Chris, to the dismay of A-loggers everywhere, probably experienced similarly small amounts of discomfort after having had his wisdom teeth removed.

Heh, well, I think he's dumb, and his ego and his fame kinda developed together. So at this point, it's only natural that he's got armies of jealous trolls trying to ruin his godpromised perfect life.

Only in comparison to Chris and Barb.

In order for him to view is universe is he would have to have a good idea of what other people's universes are like. Which would require a lot more empathy and understanding than his ego and, to be fair, his autism allow him. There is only one universe for him. How could it be "weird"?

Here's a thought.

Who's going to write Barb's obituary? I know the obvious answer here, but do you think it will be copy-edited for random capitalization and misspellings?

When a local person died in an accident, he mentioned (in the Imgur leak) how he walked up to the memorial, signed it and drew a Sonichu & Rosechu on it. So I don't know how one would copyedit that.

 

[TrippinKahlua]

He drew Sonichu and Rosechu on a guest book at a stranger's funeral? Hah well.

Now I'd bet he'd note it in his dying wishes to have Sonichu and Rosechu crying engraved in his tombstone.
