Containment What If?

I'd travel to the year 1983, when Chris is 12 months old, and deck 14BLC in pure 80s style, neon signs, polyester furnishings, Atari VCS, Lava Lamps, and purple trimmings everywhere and see where Christory goes from there.

Weeee! This "What If?" is fun!
 
Re: What if Coleslaw had a change of Heart?

Wouldn't Coleslaw demand his questions about his paternity be unambiguously answered before he'd even consider thinking about considering making contact?
I suspect he's still passive-aggressively sipping on a pretentious IPA, smugly waiting by the phone for Snorlax to unilaterally call and beg for forgiveness.
Until Barb provides that infodump of all her secrets, Coleslaw has no incentive to intervene.
What he's too self-involved to realize is that Snorlax doesn't know who Cole's daddy is, nor does she care what Coleslaw thinks, wants or needs. I'm not sure if she even remembers Coleslaw exists.

Never forget: It's CHRIS that wants Coleslaw to come down and take care of Snorlax's holey buttocks.
 
From my husband, upon learning that Chris speaks rudimentary Spanish: "Can you imagine if Chris got a job as a Spanish-to-English translator? Can you imagine the absolute chaos?"
 
You, sir, are NOT married; you are making as much fabrication up as Chris would. Your post is a fraud; you will never change my mind; You Are Pathetic. Ha. Ha. Ha.
 
A poor translation leads to a war between US and Mexico
Or Spain
Fuck it, he'd piss off the people of Puerto Rico and they'd go to war with us.

From what the CWCki says, his dialect is more Castillian than Mexican. Still, he's clearly horrible at it.
 
He would use this "knowledge" of Spanish to try to find a sweetheart. Then he would get fired from the job for being Chris.

Chris barely speaks English. A better question (which probably has been asked before) would be "What if Chris tried learning a new language".
 
Expect lots of stutterings and Mmm.. yeah a lot when he's translating.

What if the whole Toon World existed and Chris went there.


All I can imagine for it is Bugs Bunny trolling Chris, but that's all the possibilities.
He would be trolled by everyone there, leading to Chris listing them as the main trolls.

I would let Chris lose the Sonic Sweeptakes Contest so that he might rage on in the future. Or not.
 
Coleslaw would probably flee to another country and change his name. While Coleslaw was there Chris would search for HIS sweetheart.

:lol: I would change it so that he could have sex with Megan.
Isn't torturing Megan a bit overboard?

Chris would get killed by Toon Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Pegasus would probably call him Chrissy-boy. I'm not interested in non-card game Toon World.

Chris should have played more Resident Evil 4.

I hope he wouldn't be a medical translator or interpreter (:_(

A translator works with written material, an interpreter works with the spoken language

I read an article about the $71 million mistake. An interpreter asked a sick Latino's family what was wrong, and they said "intoxicado" which means "poisoned" in Spanish but the interpreter thought meant "drunk" so the doctor just thought the guy was drunk and didn't treat him for the poisoning. The patient died and the family sued and won $71 million.

To learn a language like Spanish for use as a diplomat (which is a pretty high level of comprehension), it takes about 600 classroom hours (plus homework), so it takes a very long time to become fluent in a language. He'd be like most people and go through the first few chapters in a beginner's book, *sigh* and quit.

Language learning is one of my favorite topics :geek:

If Chris got a job as a translator, everything that he translated would sound like Zero Wing.

What if, gods forbid, Chris had died as a child or in childbirth? What would've become of Borb?
 
They'd be awfully uninteresting characters wouldn't they?

To take it a step further. I doubt Borb's marriage would have survived very long without a child. I'm doing some serious lazy armchair psychology here but I remember someone mentioning that Barb sought to have a child with Bob asap so that he wouldn't leave her like everyone else had.

If thats correct they wouldn't have made it very long without Chris, in my opinion.

They'd probably divorce, then shit themselves and do nothing. They would live out the rest of their lives as average old rednecks, unknown to the world, so they'd never get phone calls from weens. :julay:
