Gotta say, I'm impressed with the level of effort here. I was expecting everything beyond the first one or two to be printed on paper and supplied with a piece of string. Either that or just a photocopied instruction on how to just make your own.
On positive things about Chris.He is very motivational in the sense that he makes you want to actually contribute to society. And like, clean every surface of your home.
OH MY GOD THIS CHICK!
I think she might be my favorite lolcow. I remember discovering her on Tumblr, when the blog "Sociallyunacceptableart" was still a thing. Out of all the crazy artists on there, something about her seemed so fascinating to me. You see, I was a huge Spyro fan as a kid, to the point where I had autistic fantasies involving the world and characters. But like most people, I grew out of it. The fact that she's so obsessed with a boss from the first game, a character with absolutely no characterization and only appears on screen for a couple of seconds. And the fact that not only she ships herself with him but also draws porn of it. Maybe it's because I'm somewhat naive in regards to studying lolcows, but I...I just don't get it.
Her real life is also as entertaining as well. The fact that she has a boyfriend old enough to be her dad (Hell, he was actually friends with her dad) and probably knew her when she was underaged. Not to mention her apparently has kids older than her and hits on young girls on Facebook. And that LadyALT69 includes him in her shitty art and draws porn of him, her, and Jacques having a threeway. I'll admit, the whole thing is creepy and depressing, but it's also super entertaining. Ah well, I at least give her credit for making me discover and join this rabbit whole of a website. Anything to get me away from Tumblr, I guess.
Wow, you're all young.
All the way back 15 or so years ago there was this guy named Alex Chiu who sold magnets that make you immortal. I remember his website fondly, with it's outlandish claims and obsession with Alicia Silverstone. I checked back a couple months ago, turns out he's still around (those magnets must work!) and crazier than ever. He's now a Chinese Neo Nazi and his message board is deliciously insane: http://idu.yuku.com/topic/626/true-Nazi-wish-die-battlefield-assassinated#.UzN-vPldVUU http://idu.yuku.com/topic/723/Hear-a-voice-in-my-dream-WW3-in-10-months#.UzN-jfldVUU http://idu.yuku.com/topic/631/We-Nazis-did-not-do-a-damn-thing-wrong-including-holocost#.UzN-uPldVUU
What he meant was that he likes a girl on top, lying on top of him (face to face, chests basically pressed up against eachother) - as opposed it the traditional cowgirl image of them "riding" a dude (i.e. being somewhat upright, sat up).
In Chris's mind "missionary = that one where you're lying down. Cowgirl = that one with the girl on top. Therefore missionary cowgirl makes sense, it's wanting a girl on top to lay on top of you"
Chris logic is retarded, but kinda understandable.
The weird thing is, I remember that incredibly vividlyThis was back when this was a CWC-only forum. I think I was asking what a q-sand was. I think I was also comparing myself to Chris. Those were the days...
Wow, tumblrinas come here to protest their God awful views of their warped reality? That's autism in its purest form.
So basically, nothing has changed.'Sup.
I've been lurking here for a good amount of time on here and on other lolcow places and i decided to make an account to join in on the discussion. Aside from that, that's all you need to know about me.
In the time I have been observing Chris, I have found that he is not really the phenomenon that people should be conducting research on, but it is the community that surrounds his followership. Bob intimated in a call before that people were writing "dissertations" on Chris. I wonder how much of this is true and if there has been an actual research project that has been completed on Chris or his fandom.
I am actually a PhD who has published research on the topic of technology and society, and I have had work published on the role of discussion boards as a tool for cancer patients that helps them self-manage and to provide a cathartic role in their lives, depending on what point of their care they are in. I only give this background because I would like to call out to other people who may be academics here who would be in agreement with me that the community that follows Chris should be studied.
There is a lot of information here and there are a lot of people who have been involved. While the pure nature of the community itself likely precludes the ability to rely on responses to interviews or questionnaires, I believe that a qualitative analysis of artifacts from the old imageboards and the message boards could provide useful content for academic study and would be a phenomenon worthy of research. It is novel enough to get published. Has anyone done this before? I have searched ProQuest, Google Scholar, and found nothing.
