August 2016 Paid Video Requests

This page lists the video requests that Chris was paid to do in August 2016.

He also read chapters 2-4 of "A Girl Who Brought Down the World", "And Apparently Survived a Housefire", although he denied getting paid for it.

Singing "All of the Lights"
Reminiscent of the SingStar Challenge, Chris is requested to sing over a song selected by another person. Unsurprisingly, the parallels do not end there. Chris demonstrated nearly zero effort in preparing for this request; muddling the lyrics, souring the melody, and constantly fidgeting throughout the video.

To Shelly
A set of screenshots from Kiwi Farms user crayolasword show that Chris initially wanted to charge $10 for this video. However, after his work ethic was questioned, he made it for free, possibly so he could use it for his own advantage when he later made a Facebook post imploring any former Etsy customers to "take a good look at me in my latest video on my YouTube channel. I am feeling Very Tired..." (even though his shop got closed months ago for failing to send products).

[''Chris leans back into his chair and retracts his hand from the bottom right of the frame. Throughout the video, he fidgets around, playing with his hair or moving his right hand around.'']

Ahhh, hello, this is Christine Chandler coming to you from my home once again, uhh, so hey, uh, Shelly from your husband, he definitely wishes you a happy birthday and I wish you a happy birthday too. M'kay? So, you turn another year older and another year wiser... That's good. Have a good day.

[Chris leans forward and extends his hand to the bottom right of the frame.]

Happy Birthday, McKenna
Chris lazily fulfills another boring birthday request. This time, he adds flair by including his cat Lucy.

[''Chris looks at his phone, which is down in his lap. Lucy is also in his lap, her head in the corner of the frame.'']

Hello McKenna, this is Christine Chandler, comin' to ya live from home, wishing you a happy birthday. I hope you have a great and safe one, and a great year.

[''Chris picks up the camera and moves it so that Lucy is facing the camera. Chris speaks in a much higher pitched voice.'']

Here's my cat, Lucy! Mew! She wishes you a good day, too! Don't ya, miss!

[''Chris turns the camera towards himself. He speaks in his normal voice now.'']

M'kay. Have a good day, McKenna.

Singing an ol' diddy
Chris sings his greatest hit, "So Need a Cute Girl", replacing the line, "I never want to hear you say, 'I have a boyfriend!'" to "I never want to hear you say, 'I'm already taken!'". Chris may have done this in order to be inclusive to dykes, thus widening the field of candidates—beyond heterosexual women—targeted by his original song. Disregarding the outrageous fact that Chris has kept the lyrics sheet of a parodic song—written on lined notebook paper by him in 2003—notice how he gazed up every time he approached the replaced line. This is likely due to his autism, which probably prevented him from looking at the original line without reading it out loud.

Notably, this is the first video appearance of the Christine Doll.
