'''2017''' is the ninth year of organized trolling. It will also mark the tenth anniversary of [[Chris]]' discovery by 4chan and the creation of the original [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] article.


President [[Donald Trump]] took office on 20 January. Alongside Chris' ongoing [[Financhu Crisis]], 2017 may likely result in one of the most interesting years in Christory.
'''2017''' was the ninth year since Chris's discovery. It marked the tenth anniversary of [[Chris]]'s discovery by 4chan and the creation of the original [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] article.
 
President [[Donald Trump]] took office on 20 January, in the midst of Chris' ongoing [[Financhu Crisis]]. Despite these obstacles, Chris overcame his [[stress]] to resume work on [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']] in earnest and develop a slightly healthier [[Chris and socialization|social life]]. He began to recognize the gravity of his financial situation and tried to improve it by pawning off his [[Relics of Fail|most iconic possessions]] and shilling for his [[Patreon]]. On the other hand, he began harassing an [[DoopieDoOver|online artist]] in an attempt to make a [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up]], only to incite a brief but intense period of old-fashioned [[Trolls|trolling]]. He recovered from the incident by attending [[BronyCon]] and soon found an actual [[sweetheart]], [[Jessica Quinn]], who traumatically dumped him a month later while he did a Q&A session with [[Kiwi Farms]] users. Rounding out the year, he spent November and December adding bizarre and sometimes disturbing material to his comic and other content at the behest of the original [[Idea Guy]].

Chris began March by listing [[stamps]] from his late father's collection on eBay. He repeatedly lied throughout the month that the money would go to [[Financhu Crisis|bills and debtor payments]] - he had actually wasted the profit on toys and video games. Within a week, he had obliterated his profit and was in the red, leading him to beg on Facebook for more sales. White knights quickly bailed him out, raising $41.50 in a single day for him.
He briefly mentioned the world of [[CWCville]] again, as part of a [[business]] plan to advertise his stamp sales. On St. Patrick's Day, he posted a drawing of [[Son-Chu]], leading to speculation about his reasons. A few days later, he set the record straight on his artistic inspiration for Son-Chu after reading the [[CWCki]]'s article on it, posting a screenshot from the article onto his Facebook, in addition to two prototype designs of Son-Chu. A week later, on 27 March, he revealed a silhouette photo of a Son-Chu figure, as well as a picture of his [[Skylanders avatar]] and declared that those would be featured as prizes for a raffle to be held until [[Honor roll|31 April]]. It led to another boost in sales, earning him $69.50 in revenue over the next five days.
Chris rediscovered Twitter, clocking in at 68 tweets throughout the month. His messages were generally directed to voice actresses from [[My Little Pony]] and DoopieDoOver (an animator and voice actress for the Planet Dolan YouTube series), and he also responded to a couple of trolls who had questioned his lesbian soul and asked his audience for opinions on a good 3D-scanning app for his phone.. Socially awkward as ever, his messages included:
*a rant at Tara Strong and her friend about his half-brother [[Cole Smithey]].
*shitposting by discussing his pooping habit with Doopie.
*asking a brony convention, based in California, for gas money to drive there from Virginia.
*saying he was hypnotized by a gif of a furry.

[[File:April 2017.png|thumb|left|Return of The Classic.]]
During this month, Chris reached the one-year anniversary of the [[Financhu Crisis]]. Fittingly, he and Barb hit new levels of fiscal incompetence.
Barb failed to budget for payments to Seterus, Inc. (a company specializing in high-risk loans, acting as a middleman between her and the mortgage company, Sunstone). As a result, her bank account was left in the red by over $800. After Chris became aware of it, he noticed that his friends on Facebook (including a real-life, non-troll friend) were suggesting that he get a job, and he went on a tirade in response.
Hoping to raise money, Chris listed the infamous [[Sonic Totem]] relic on eBay, asking for $1,500. eBay member [http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=ashuraglitch&ftab=FeedbackAsBuyer&searchInterval=30 ashuraglitch] purchased it less than four hours later. However, Chris immediately wasted $1,150 from the sale on a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb and $750 worth of Skylanders products for a raffle contest he was holding. Over the next few days, he spent even more money on his own bills and could not afford to ship the Totem to ashuraglitch.
Halfway through the month, Barb begged on camera for the fourth time during the Financhu Crisis, claiming to need money for an overdue electrical bill, while wearing the newly-bought [[$400 gold necklace]].
Eventually, Barb solved their problems by digging into their life insurance, after Chris's fans refused to bail him out of the financial hole and ashurasglitch opened an eBay dispute against him for failing to ship the Totem. Naïve to the how close they came to financial ruin, Chris continued frivolously spending money, ordering a Unicorn Frappuccino from Starbucks using the new supply of cash.
Looking for more stuff to sell, Chris found [[The Classic]] shirt, thought to have been lost in the [[2014 house fire]], casually mentioning in his sales pitch that it had been found in a hoard of ruined clothing, which was still wet from firefighters' efforts to combat the house fire. Chris, naïve to the concept of mold, had gone digging anyway, and complained later of a sore throat from the "dirt" and "wall lining". He listed the shirt for $12,000 minimum, and trolls bid it to $25,100. April concluded with Chris making efforts to restore the damaged shirt.

2017 was the ninth year since Chris's discovery. It marked the tenth anniversary of Chris's discovery by 4chan and the creation of the original Encyclopedia Dramatica article.

President Donald Trump took office on 20 January, in the midst of Chris' ongoing Financhu Crisis. Despite these obstacles, Chris overcame his stress to resume work on Sonichu in earnest and develop a slightly healthier social life. He began to recognize the gravity of his financial situation and tried to improve it by pawning off his most iconic possessions and shilling for his Patreon. On the other hand, he began harassing an online artist in an attempt to make a Sweetheart from the Ground-Up, only to incite a brief but intense period of old-fashioned trolling. He recovered from the incident by attending BronyCon and soon found an actual sweetheart, Jessica Quinn, who traumatically dumped him a month later while he did a Q&A session with Kiwi Farms users. Rounding out the year, he spent November and December adding bizarre and sometimes disturbing material to his comic and other content at the behest of the original Idea Guy.

Pmurt was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, over Chris's objections. Chris continued complaining about him on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

The Tomgirl saga continued, now in its sixth year and with no end in sight. Chris tried to donate blood but was told that he couldn't because he is transgender. A Breitbart News editor, Milo Yiannopoulos, briefly featured a photo of Chris, from his 2014 OKCupid profile, during a lecture. Chris's views on homos continued to evolve, as evidence by an open letter to President Trump's son, in which Chris commented about losing his homophobia while urging Barron not to become a "Super Stereotypical, Spiteful and Egotistical Male" like the elder Trump.

Chris, in February. Pictured at top left, in the white jacket.

Chris was haunted by feelings of nostalgia for his past relationships with the gal pals from high school, Megan Schroeder and his late father. He also revisited an old playground from his childhood.

However, Chris continued to maintain an active social life. He saw The Lego Batman Movie with a friend and attended events at the University of Virginia.

Chris mentioned the world of CWCville again for the first time in years in the form of a text update; as a reaction to President Trump's policies, he declared CWCville to be a sanctuary city. He also revealed that several changes had occurred in his imaginary town since the last update. Namely, he had stepped down as mayor and Allison Amber had taken his place.

There were also bizarre new insights into his personal life. He theorized that he had a fetish for Sailor Moon music, posted that he was used to skunk odor (and compared it to perfume and cologne) and liked a Subliminal Frequency Hypnosis video purporting to transfer fat from his belly to his butt as part of a D.I.Y. gender transition treatment.

Return of The Classic.

During this month, Chris reached the one-year anniversary of the Financhu Crisis. Fittingly, he and Barb hit new levels of fiscal incompetence.
