Title

The title for this video should really be "Chris-chan Discusses... Billy Mays". (And the section heading to that effect should really be simply "Watch".) I'd make these changes now, but I don't want to cause some horrific edit conflict. Llort 03:11, 4 July 2009 (CEST)

  • ScrewAttack called it "Chris chan Discuses." Yes, it really should be Chris-chan but that's what they called it. Also, I'm guessing there's going to be more than one video. so it'd help to subdivide them.--Champthom 03:32, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
  • There's going to be more than one part. If you notice at the end, it mentions the next "discussion" episode is about Jason Griffith and Spax3, So the series as a whole is called "Chris chan Discusses..."--UncleBastard 04:29, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
  • I guess what I should've said is that the title for this video should really be "Chris Chan Discusses... Billy Mays". That's what ScrewAttack even provides as the description for the video, despite titling it "Chris chan Discusses... Billy Mays". (I just realized that I don't know for sure if Chris officially goes by "Chris-chan" [misusing the Japanese honorific] or "Chris Chan" [punning off of that same honorific and his last name]. Either way, it's definitely not "Chris chan", and this article shouldn't stick with that, especially given the video's own description of "Chris Chan".) I simply see no benefit in ever adhering to shit YouTube punctuation and/or capitalization when it only takes five seconds to make re-direct pages for those moronic "official" titles.
  • But that's what ScrewAttack Europe (a CWCkipedian, actually) called it. The fault with naming is not on our part but Chris's part. It's like "Merried Seinor" - it should be "Senior" but we keep it as Chris spelled it. The same should hold here. Also, the clever thing about Chris-chan is that it works on two levels, one as an honorific but also Chan like Chandler. So yeah, it should be kept as it is. --Champthom 04:47, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
  • More importantly, I'm definitely sticking by my assessment that this should have its own page, rather than be part of a page devoted to an entire "Chris Chan Discusses..." series. Just think about it: doing otherwise would be like saying that we should have one gigantic page devoted to the "Captain's Log" series, divided into fifty sections for fifty videos, as opposed to simply giving each Captain's Log video its own page!

  • I'll surrender for now. Things like this aggravate me more than they should. Llort 05:06, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
  • Congratulations, you're now a wikifag. --Champthom 10:58, 5 July 2009 (CEST)
  • Ugghh... I just caught on that you (both) mean (I think) that there are going to be more parts to one long fucking video - and that they're releasing these spaced out to be pricks - rather than more unique episodes shot at different times. That's a hard case, falling somewhere in between something like Chris's Big Night Out and the Captain's Log series. I guess it can all stay as one page - at least unless/until it gets unmanageably large - but I maintain that it should be "Chris Chan", not "Chris chan". "Chris chan" should simply be a re-direct.

Chris chan is how it's always been referred to as on ED.--UncleBastard 05:15, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
  • Actually, the official page title is Chris-chan but Chris chan is alright :3. --Champthom 05:18, 4 July 2009 (CEST)

Transcript

I'll add a transcript when I'm through with this bastardly instance in WoW --Thorgnzorrg 04:13, 4 July 2009 (CEST)

Wait, this is the second time Chris has done an interview? I know his clips were played on a radio station in Boston, but which one was first? I forget. --Tregnier2795 06:05, 5 July 2009 (CEST)

  • No, it was two guys who somehow got in touch with Chris and asked Chris questions like "Why do you hate gay people so much?" (Chris's answer: "Yes") and he asks them not to talk about pickles. He also is asked about Obama and he says "Well there's a theory if he's elected, he'll paint the White House black." Also stuff about the medallion (this was shortly after the Medallion was destroyed) and Chris is like "Nope, they don't have it because I HAVE IT HERE, SEE?" Download it here. I want to get a YouTube version before we post it yet Cameron hasn't posted it on the CWCvilleLibrary yet and I'd rather not post it on my YouTube account. If someone can mirror it, they'd get a Gold Star Bounty award for that. --Champthom 07:23, 6 July 2009 (CEST)

Unwarranted Self Importance

I love how Chris feels the need to deny it was him responsable for the death of Billy Mays. --YawningSquirtleRedux 15:43, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Made sure he's the leadership

In Chris-chan Discusses... Transformers, when he talks about Optimus Prime being brought back to life, I think he's actually saying "with the Matrix of Leadership" rather than "made sure he's the leadership".

Merging the Transcriptions

I have the missing gaps in the existing transcripts, as well as a question. The article doesn't work with the entire interview on top and the extracts below. There's a lot of repetition, and it ends up being way longer than it should be. Is there any opposition to merging the transcriptions into a single section, with breaks indicating the original excerpts published, and then put the excerpt videos in a gallery at the bottom?
