Car Pranks

On 2 August 2009, a troll posted Chris's '94 Ford Escort for sale on Craigslist as part of a prank. A handful of trolls then contacted Chris, expressing interest in purchasing his car and offering their HEXBoxes to sweeten the deal. Apparently, autistics don't know a good deal when they are given one, and Chris rejected all offers, no matter how innocent, with either rage or his super-egotism.

The voicemail greeting on Chris's cellphone also appears in the recording. In it he states that he will not take part in any interviews or documentaries under the advice of his "publicist and lawyers". He also tosses a warning at any trolls who might be calling. It is not known when Chris recorded this greeting.

Chris: Yes, I am pos--I am 100% positive. It's a fraud. Somebody else put it up there. I've already sent a complaint to Craigslist. So, go somewhere else for a car.

I have a perfectly good Xbox 360 right here, right next to me- Chris: Nick: Oka...excuse me, sir? [Chris hangs up, and the default Skype hanging-up sound is heard.]

Voicemail Greeting (0:45 - 1:17)
Chris: Hello. You have reached the cellphone of Christian Weston Chandler. I'm sorry I could not answer right now, but please leave your name message, telephone number, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. And I was advised heavily by my publicist and my lawyers to not do any interviews or a documentaries whatsoever. Even in...because I got so much reputation and at stake at the current time. Also if this is a, uh, troll trying to troll me back, do you think how much trollin' stupid? I'm not trollin' stupid, you're trollin' stupid. Have a good day. [BEEP]
