Containment What If?

He'd be the same, but instead of being "Christian Weston Chandler Ruckersville Virgina" he'd be "Christian Weston Chandler somewhere in Chile".
 
I'm a still very sick and delirious so I'll take a crack at this, because why not.

The first thing we need to look into is Chris's anger towards Megan over the years. I think Cjris would be very easy to forgive if Megan said "I love you and we must marry now".
No we must look into Chris's paranoia, he's really not as dumb as he used to be. He'd think/know this was either a trolls setup or Mimmsy striking again for cheap laughs.
IF Megan was honest and they did get married it wouldn't be long before consulting would have to begin. Megan's got the upper hand with "I'm expected to work, cook, clean, and raise our kid by myself" argument. The marriage can't be saved so we all watch the best episode of Divorce Court in television history. Chris tries to get money for his "heartaches" but fails. Megan gets everything, because she actually worked and deserves everything, including the kid.
Chris shits himself and does nothing. He would blame his problems on his bitch ex wife. The only difference between Megan rants now and then is now people will have more sympathy.

Until Chris squanders that.
 
They'd quickly get divorced and she'd win the Sailor Moon DVDs in the court proceedings. Chris, heart shattered and having to make due with his shitty burned copy of the DVDs would soon fall into a depression, develop a drinking problem, and die face down in a shallow ditch of water after passing out in itt. The police wouldn't find his bloated and blackened body until a week later and he'd get an award winning movie entitled 'Christian Weston Chandler; Blitzkrieg my Heart' about the innocent and fun loving autistic man who was taken advantage of by a crazy Nazi bitch.

Is that what you wanted to hear, OP?
 
Michael Snyder you must be from Chile I assume?

Anyway, probably the same hed do in Ruckersville. Play vidya, live in a crappy house and eat junk food, and get banned a bunch of places. What else really?
 
You know that rosechu bride that Alec kept in his basement? Pretty much that
 
This is a highly plausible scenario that I hope to keep within those limits.

The fire that damaged 14 Branchland on January 10th, 2014, is common knowledge, although the extent of the damage is still not fully understood. Not in dispute, however, is that 14 Branchland needs major repairs, starting with the roof, windows and part of the floor of the 2nd story.

These repairs will require many weeks of craftspeople to rebuild. Several tons of hoard will need to be moved; and it would require having people in their house in a way that they've not had in perhaps decades. The Insurance may or may not pay for the full repairs, Keurig certainly won't and Marvin is pretty confident that there is a mortgage on the property. Barb can decide not to remove the hoard--but then there are no repairs and Greene County/The Neighbors/Further Damage condemns the house.

So, there is that same choice that's already been made. Having a livable house, or having a stupidly large pile of crap, except now that unlivable house might litterally be fact.

Keeping that house won't be easy, but for all the problems that emerge from putting it back together, there's been little discussion about Barb and Chris looking to leave. At this point, hard truths are undeniable: the house can not survive without basic maintenance; the hoard could literally kill Chris and Barb, and the risks of electrical/infrastructure failure at this point are already high.

So, WI they give up on 14 Branchland? They could go anywhere they can drive to; they can try to make new reputations for themselves in a county where they're not disliked by many people for valid reasons. Barb has family she can potentially reach out for--and not just Cole, who probably wouldn't step in short of a full scale "I really screwed up, please, I need your help" sort of confession--but someone else in the Weston clan, or even just a place that Barb things a good spot for them to live.

Where would they wind up? And would it be a less toxic way for them to live?
 
It doesn't matter where they travel to, they'll create a toxic environment for themselves and those around them.
 
I'm not sure the have the capabilities to just up and move away, but even if they could, and did, It's exactly what Coldgrip just said.
 
Either a trailer at 14BC, a trailer/low-cost rented house elsewhere, or an apartment. Those would really be their only options, considering that they don't really have anyone to turn to for any other sort of permanent solution. Either the trailer at 14BC or an apartment would be the most likely. Regardless, they'll still be miserable, and I assume that Hoard Jr. will be conceived as soon as they move in.

Say the fire turned out worse than it did and all that remained was a large pile of ash and the charred remains of the house frame poking out. Would this have possibly effected Chris and Barb physiologically more?

It became apparent that the moment they realized they could salvage their horde and didn't have to start over they went back to their classic and horribly predictable ways. So if they literally lost everything, and had nothing left. What would they do?

-Hard Mode: Don't mention blaming the coffee maker.

I'd looked at this some, here's what I can come up with:

In this scenario, there is now a direct question of Chris' and Barb's very survival. Losing everything in the fire means the Chandler Cars too, and that's quite plausible--that old growth forest in the front yard will clearly burn (latest images show the brownish color of dead vegetation) and the whole property (and beyond) can go up in smoke.

This is now gross negligence; other people's property has been placed at risk owing to the poor condition of 14 Branchland, of which there is conclusive evidence provided by Chris himself. I'm not sure how the fire can entirely raze their house without threatening their neighbors; and I'm equally unsure that said neighbors are favorably inclined to the Chandlers. It's an issue that might be dodged, or it might zing the Chandlers right out of Ruckersville.

In the ash that is 14 Branchland, a few things of value remain. The Cars might be slags on the ground, but the precious metals inside their catalytic converters are still worth hundreds. Mentioned elsewhere, and still valid, Chris' Graduation Ring is a Gold Alloy Band around Amethyst--and while the Ring might have slagged, that Amethyst is probably entirely undamaged (this is a very hard, very high melting rock--its virtually guaranteed to survive fire conditions.) Also safe and sound is Sonichu, the CWCipedia, and hundreds of hours of conversations with CWC.

It's in our hands. He can have a copy of it back.

The Fire Fighters probably made no attempt to save 14 Branchland in this scenario; perhaps the hoard simply accelerated the fire far faster and CWC/Barb made no attempt to call as they've lost their phones. They might have been trying to stop the fire outside of the property, as it attacked other properties in the neighborhood. Still, a fight with State Farm is possible; if they are grossly negligent in starting this fire, State Farm might refuse to pay.

A lot of this is a remix of things that have already happened and thought processes that have already run their course. One solid bet to the contrary--Chris really does miss his dogs. He might keep them cramped up in tiny spots and never walk them, but he's attached to them, and their demise will be his immediate emotional blow.

The legal/insurance ramifications will hit next, but like RL they may well not fully be solved by the current day. As a speculative scenario, we can simply decide that the insurance pays and that no legal trouble rises (not that this is necessarily what will happen RL), but it is important to note that things can go wildly wrong then and there.

There would be an aid package from this forum and others, and it would probably be larger. All the same, the real blow is losing the dogs.

Dollars to donuts that's the loss Chris feels for years in the future. He can get new Vidya and Porn, but the dogs really were special to him.
 
Why chile?
Because the op couldn't be bothered to search for the previous thread about Chris living where specific poster live
 
What if Chris moved off and started a new life ANYWHERE in general?

I'm not sure...i work in health insurance, and if a settlement from a third party is received, such as in a car accident, its deducted from the claim in monetary value, not negating it entirely. Id expect a settlement from keurig to be much smaller than the value of their homeowners claim.

edit: this is on the assumption he gets a token settlement to go away. Which i imagine would be very, very little if anything.

The issue though is that if Chris pursues anything against Keurig himself, he may be interfering with the insurer's subrogation rights, which can make the policy voidable. To use an example that might be in more familiar terms: suppose one of your insureds slips and falls on someone else's property and has health insurance through your company. He files a claim with you for his treatment, and mentions that the injury took place on someone else's property. Later (after he'd gotten better) he personally threatens suit against the property owner, and then settles for a token amount that's substantially less than the loss. Your insurance company would be bound by that, and would have every right to be enormously pissed off at him.

Of course under normal situations the insurer would immediately tell the claimant not to sign anything AND would probably notify the property owner that they're the insurer; that notice would probably negate any attempts by them to bargain directly with the claimant since there's a presumption that he's trying to defraud the parties to reduce his own liability.

In this case though, State Farm would not be likely to pursue anything against Keurig. Even out of the hope of getting a token settlement themselves. I hope.
 
I would think the extension cord thing gets Keurig off the hook completely. I doubt they'll offer a dime.

There are some possible niches.Domination/humiliation type stuff would be an obvious one. Unfortunately for Chris, this probably wouldn't involve him getting laid, just having attractive women laughing at his bent duck.

The other would be the "celebrity" route. There's one porn star whose name I forget, but she was in the first series of Big Brother UK. Looks-wise, she is, to put it politely, not conventionally pretty. However, she's built her career on the back of her minor early-2000s celebrity. Octomom, Tila Tequila and even the dude who played Screech in Saved By The Bell have done sex tapes - it's not that people necessarily want to see them in the throes of passion, more that they're curious to see a famous person doing something incredibly private. Chris' fame is probably too niche for him to make big bucks, and most of his most private moments are already on general release, but you never know.

And there are occasional videos that mostly exist so that the viewers can laugh at the weird/hideous/poorly-endowed star, which is probably Chris' best shot.

Seeing as how none of theese would appease ego and would require you to step down and *SIGH* at yourself...

Well, sad to see Chantors carreer up in smoke. Thats probobly in bad taste, huh?
 
First of all, I'm pretty sure that porn is of dubious legality in most states, including Virginia. (I believe that Florida and California treat it as a legal profession, Nevada goes further, and this doesn't fly in Virginia.)

Chris has to get off his ass and go somewhere. Uh oh, we're in trouble now!

If Octomom can potentially get paid monies for her own stupidity and profile, I have to think Chris has chances along a "So very far from normal" niche. There are a lot of women out there who do a lot of insane stuff for very little money, many of them from Eastern Europe. I think Chris has an outside shot of getting to a single filming.

And then he realizes that sex can be work. That he's gotten to the stage, and the Polish/Hungarian/Former SSR chick is sucking his dick--and there is a whole camera team focusing on it. And that it's not about enjoying the sex, it's about ensuring that the audience does. Chris may very well learn a hard lesson about the industry that he'd never known, but he preferred the hooker a lot more.

[If it matters, the woman is probably fine and has probably had to deal with things like being slapped around on the set, so this isn't really a big deal]

At that footage of him trying to ram a girl with his bent duck is never leaving the internet. It gets linked into the CWCki.
In exchange for perhaps $200, he discovers that acting in porn isn't the escape he's mentally built it up as.

The theme continues, another dream ruined by reality. No one here had any hopes for Carlos Cantor, but this would be promoted from stupid idea to Christorical Arc. And new trolls, new complaints, and all the crap that's already been still on the table.
