Containment What If?

Even with all of OP's initial restrictions, this is the only way I can see it end:

DEATH TO KING LOUIEEEEEEEEEEE :alog:
 
"The reign of Emperor Christopher I and the Queen-Mother Barbera I was very short lived. The ineptitude of his royal policies had left the Court of Branchland a ruined mess; the streets filled with garbage and the peasants went hungry while the Treasury was spent to lavish the royal palace with many curious trinkets and novelties."

That homeless man have watch. Something very fishy is going on.

I don't understand how the house hasn't been paid off yet.
The Chandlers are bad with money.

CaptainHuya said:
I understand that maybe there's a second mortgage or something out on it, but there doesn't seem to be anything that points to there being a second mortgage on the house
A second mortgage would be a means of getting more money into the household in the short term, at the cost of creating more debt in the long term. But the long term is for losers. Let Future Borb worry about that debt. Future Borb isn't doing jack shit for Current Borb, and Current Borb wants to buy shit NAOW, so fuck Future Borb!
All those Hummel Figurines on QVC and those PSN DLC's aren't going to buy themselves.

CaptainHuya said:
(no major renovations on the house, no major hospitalizations, things like that).
Well, look at it this way, adding, say, an in-ground pool would count as an addition, right?
Sooooooo....think about this: Borb wanted an in-house landfill. It costs money to build up shoulder-high heaps of detritus.
That is Borb's idea of Home "Improvement".

CaptainHuya said:
Aren't traditional mortgages 30 year loans?
Some are 15 Years, and I've heard tell of 12 Year terms, those those are extremely rare.

CaptainHuya said:
That should have put the end of the loan up somewhere around 2012, provided that they purchased the house somewhere around 1982. That just doesn't make any sense to me.
Of course it doesn't make sense. Because you are sane and have common sense.
Trying to use sanity and common sense to understand The Chandler Household is a one-way trip into madness, because common sense and sanity do not apply here.
 
If there's a mortgage to pay when Barb passes, will Chris even understand how necessary it is to pay it off? I'm not sure if it's giving him too much or not enough credit to assume he'd just deal with it like he does with his credit cards. It's kind of depressing wondering what will happen once Barb passes--Chris will be upset and no one will be able to or want to help him with finances after that (Unless Anna's going to take that role, but that seems rather unlikely.)
 
Even if Barb doesn't have a will Chris would be next of kin, assuming Cole doesn't barge in and decide to rob his autistic brother...

oh shit

Let me know when that fuck Barb drops so I can celebrate.
 
What if Chris had been born in 1972?

I saw the 1992 thread and wondered, how would his life have turned out in the opposite case?

I'm going to pick the day he created Sonichu as the main point of divergence for '72 Chris. He could not have done it in 1990, because neither of its two components existed yet. What, if anything, would he have shat out instead?

How would he have amused himself circa 1990? It's very unlikely he would have had internet that early. Would he have become addicted to the video games of the day? Would he have preferred something like Dungeons and Dragons instead? Would he have discovered Sonic when it arrived in 1991?

At what point would he have gotten the internet? He might have remained obscure if he had waited until late in the decade in this alternate universe. If he had drawn She Came in 1997 (for this speculation, let's assume Megan and everyone else in Chris's life was also born 10 years earlier) it's possible no one would have ever seen it if he had not yet gotten the internet. Then again, without E.D. trolls for him to try to shock, he might not have drawn it at all. He couldn't post anything to Youtube, Youtube didn't exist yet. What other ways would he have found to embarrass himself?
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

He would not be infamous over the internet. Instead, he'd be just another loser who still lives with his mother past the age of 40.
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

Chris would have been born in 1972. End of discussion.
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

A-Log would blame Chris for Watergate.
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

His father would probably have been a WW2 vet instead of a Korean war vet.

He would have been into D and D, Super Mario brothers, and singing madonna songs in a high pitched way

On a more serious note: It is unlikely he would have been able to advance to high school, much less graduate from it. There was really very little special education in the '80s, never mind autism centered special education. There would have been no school that would have been willing to take Chris whether in Greene County, or any other county really.

Not saying that his education made a big difference to him but..... just sayin'...
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

He'd be 10 years fatter,stupider and gayer.
Please Godbear, let there be no more what is chris was born blahblahblah wank threads.
 
Re: What if Chris does not inhale when Barb passes wind ?

Silly bloody question .He's got his nose permanently wedged up her arse.
 
Re: What if Chris had been born in 1972?

The 80s would have been rough for him, but he'd be far better off today. Like Scuttle456 said, he would have been forced into special education, and there would have been far less asspatting going on in his life as a young adult in the 90s. Gen-X'ers weren't exactly the poster children for social niceties.

He'd be dead by now
DAMMIT CATPARTY. I came here to say this. Since you got to it first, let me think of something else.
If every other circumstance were the same, Barb would be thirty and probably unwed. Chris still wouldn't stand a chance, probably wouldn't be coddled so much by the system, and when walking down the halls of his middle school kids would throw pennies at him and scream "OPTIMUS PRIME IS DEAD". Also, He-Mansformers would be the new Sonichu.
