IRC (31 December 2008)

An IRC chat from on the last day of December 2008.

Like many chats from around this time, it's a mix of fan interaction between Chris and trolls in disguise, followed by a more personal (and supposedly "private") conversation between Chris and his sweetheart of the time, PandaHalo.

Summary
"the only books I can think off the top of my head are Goosebumps/Fear Street and Pamela Anderson's "Star"."

- Chris, on reading recommendations.

BlueSpike opens the chat by passing on a few questions from the fans. Chris offers a tortuous explanation for the ages of the Chaotic Combo - they are 19 years old, and never mind the evidence of the actual comics or basic mathematics - and explains, sort of, the "My wooden badge was delicious!" joke from the cover of Sonichu 4. It still doesn't make any sense, nor is it funny.

Chris claims that his greatest accomplishment in life was his involvement in the Pokémon trading-card league at The GAMe PLACe. By this point his memory has inflated his actual role there to the level of "co-hosting" the league. (In fact, he only rarely helped run league events, and his ineptitude helped get him kicked out of the store.)

When asked a long and complex question about ongoing political disputes in Palestine and Israel, Chris demands that the questioner "STOP" halfway through. "I don't particually care for bad news" is all he has to say on that subject.

At this point, Chris remains absolutely tickled over the Sonichu Girls forum, which wouldn't be revealed as a front for trolls until late February. He showers his supposed female fanbase with compliments, and declares, "BOYS, KEEP OUT; God forbid you messing up their pure, honest, sweet input."

When Panda takes over the chat, she asks Chris about sources of stress in his life. He points to his father Bob Chandler and reiterates his usual complaints - he's argumentative, he doesn't wash his hands enough. Naturally, Chris is oblivious to the hypocrisy of someone like himself criticizing another person's attitude or standards of hygiene. (Hand-washing appears to be the one way that Chris cares about keeping clean. He reportedly used up hand sanitizer like crazy at The GAMe PLACe.)

Panda also tries to bait him by mentioning Robert Simmons V, but he's too distracted to get jealous this time. In fact, he's fairly cool towards Panda in this chat, and mentions that he plans to resume searching for a sweetheart in his local area. It's possible that this was a cover for Chris's plans to dump Panda in favor of Julie.

Towards the end of the chat, a counter-troll messages Chris to try and link him to transcripts of his "private" chats with Panda (which, naturally, had been collected and shared by the trolls). However, Chris easily falls for Panda's explanation that the link will merely lead to a virus or some other ill omen.

What do you think will happen? Israeli officials have pointed out that ever since the cease-fire went into effect, Hamas has been using the time to train and rearm its militias, and will likely launch an attack on Israel, likely with the aid of Lebanon based Hezbollah. You might remember that Hamas overthrew the democratically elected Fatah back in 2007. Hamas, 21:44 <@<font color="#0033FF">ChrisChanSonichu > Sonichu, Rosechu and the Chaotic Combo, also Silvanna Rosechu, were transformed/eggs dispersed then hatched a few days to months later. 21:45 <@<font color="#0033FF">ChrisChanSonichu > so, age-wise, the pikachu was only a year older than the raichu; Sonichu is 20; Rosechu is 19, and the individual members of the Chaotic Combo and Silvanna are ALL 19 years old each. 21:45 <@<font color="#CC00FF">BlueSpike > decidedly more hostile towards Israel than Fatah, was met with world-wide outrage over the act, being seen as a major step backwards in the Israel-Palestine peace talks.
