'''Autism''', also known as '''autism spectrum disorder''' ('''ASD''') is a neurodevelopmental disorder and the lens through which [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]] experiences the world. It is impossible to understand Chris's [[Chris and anger|defensiveness]], [[Chris and stress|hypersensitivity]], [[Examples of Chris's Ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and remorse|irresponsibility]], [[Man in the Pickle Suit|paranoia]], [[Greene County Conspiracy|victimhood]], [[Story of My Current Days|self-pity]], and [[Chris and reality|poor grasp on reality]] without understanding his relationship with autism.

Chris was diagnosed with the disorder in his early childhood (at a time when far less was understood about the disorder), and it became a cornerstone of his identity and influence on how he would act, alongside potentially other undiagnosed psychological or neurodevelopmental disorders. It should be noted that Chris's autism is not reflective of the experiences that most people with the disorder have, but since Chris has consistently pointed to autism whenever he does something wrong, and we have no way of knowing what other disorders Chris may have without access to his medical documents, this article serves as good a place as any to discuss the nature of Chris's neuroses, whether they are tied to autism or not.

==Overview==
{{Protip|There is considerable debate on how to refer to the autism community, with some preferring diagnosis-based language (i.e. "Chris has autism"), adjectives (i.e., "Chris is autistic"), or nouns (i.e., "Chris is an autistic"). Since Chris has never appeared to have a preference, the CWCki uses these terms interchangeably.}}

{{w|Autism}} is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulty in communication and social interactions: issues that usually surface in childhood and carry on throughout life if not treated early on. The disorder represents a spectrum of different symptoms, behaviors, intellects, and support needs. Autism can also lead to restrictive and repetitive behaviors, intense passions known as special interests, and unusual fixations or approaches to stimulation. No two people with autism are exactly the same, and many common autism traits can even contradict each other (i.e. no eye contact vs. [[creepy stare|intense eye contact]]).

[[Image:461-AutismFight.jpg|thumb|200px|Chris at war with autism (or "ATSIMU") in [[China]]. Too bad you can't fight cannons with [[fangs]].]]

Autism is traditionally associated with either [[Slow-in-the-minds|intellectual disability]] or [[Honor roll|above-average intelligence]] (or both in the case of savants), but most autistic people carry average intelligence. The autism spectrum historically covered several related diagnoses, including [[Asperger's syndrome]], [[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|which Chris resents]]. The DSM-5 replaced these diagnoses with a single diagnosis of ''autism spectrum disorder'', divided into three levels based on support needs.

Due to his status as an internet celebrity and lolcow, it goes without saying that Chris has a very unusual case of autism. Since he is arguably the most documented autistic person in modern history, he affects public perceptions of the disorder on the internet. That being said, it is highly likely that Chris has ''many'' other issues beyond just having autism, since Chris has demonstrated problems that can't simply be explained away by the disorder. (For instance, it shouldn't have taken him seven years to learn how to speak, even with severe symptoms. Meanwhile, his severe delusions that spiraled later in life demonstrate signs of a schizoaffective disorder.) Without a proper medical diagnosis, in part thanks to Chris's history of avoiding cooperation with people trying to help him understand himself on that level, autism remains the typical scapegoat to explain Chris's behavior, even if the truth may be more complicated.

Chris has built much of his identity around his high-functioning autism. His terror of being associated with severely autistic people causes him to be overly eager to prove his basic competence and cite his success in primary and secondary education. At the same time, his pride from accomplishing these things in spite of his disability has conditioned him to demand outrageous praise for his slightest efforts and infinite patience for his gravest errors. Moreover, Chris's belief that the entire Greene County Board of Education continues to irrationally persecute him for his autism has left him suspicious of opposing points of view and resolute that anti-autistic prejudice is the reason for any of his setbacks. The angst he has over his unsatisfactory graduation is made manifest in [[Sonichu (comic)|his webcomic]] as [[Count Graduon|one of the work's key villains]].

Chris not only seems to think that having autism imbues him with a [[Chris and his ego|special significance]], but also feels that his autism is completely different from that of literally every other person in the world who has autism (which, while not ''totally'' wrong, is a gross oversimplification of the disorder's spectral nature). Chris feels he is naturally better than everyone else and often talks down to people who display knowledge or experience of subjects he is unfamiliar with. During his conversation with [[Father Call|Kacey's father]], Chris downplayed Kacey's knowledge of biology and healthcare despite being proven wrong mere minutes before in a debate over the genetics of autism.<ref>[[Father Call#Financial Situation and Crystal the Tard Baby (11:01-18:28)]]</ref> At the same time, Chris believes he is not responsible for the majority of his mistakes. By being autistic, Chris rationalizes that it is wholly the fault of autism if he [[Twin Falling Towers|he]] [[SheCameForCWC.jpg|makes]] [[Piedmont Virginia Community College#Kicked out of college|poor]] [[Affair with Mother|decisions]].<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 20]]</ref>

==Chris's symptoms==
{{protip|Do not use Chris to bash all autistic people, and do not complain about how he gives autism a bad name. He is one person on the autism ''spectrum''. This article mostly deals with Chris's autism.}}

[[Image:0430-ChristianWTallStack2.jpg|thumb|Stacking objects is a common symptom of autism, and is often one of its first signs in a young child.]]

A 2004 [[Autism papers|psychiatric evaluation]] confirms that Chris has ''autistic disorder''. Though his original childhood diagnosis papers are [[2014 house fire|presumably lost forever]], Chris was diagnosed by actual specialists, not armchair psychologists.

Nevertheless, many [[trolls]] dispute the exact diagnosis of Chris's mental condition, on the basis that his observed behavior is inconsistent with that of various other autistics. CWC-related forums (and other forums, for that matter) have seen numerous testimonials about people who are undeniably autistic but nowhere near as fucked up as Chris has turned out to be, and in general, these forums do not consider Chris to be an example of what most autistics are like. They are well-aware that the condition is a spectrum.

Quite often, autistics are indeed able to learn social skills to a certain extent in the context of intellectual learning. Others can learn social skills the old-fashioned way, usually through joining a group and coming out of their shell. Some can even come off as being completely neurotypical because they have come to realize that they must adapt to others' expectations of what's acceptable if they wish to succeed in life. They may also adopt the alternative approach of "Haters Gonna Hate," surrounding themselves with like-minded people and not giving a fuck about the bullies.

Chris, however, demonstrates a willful ignorance of normalcy, with a sense of entitlement coupled with an expectation that others should not only understand his ridiculous idiosyncrasies but also accept them at face value. Sometimes, he even wishes to force [[Dating education|them]] upon others.

A layman might come to the conclusion that Chris is not autistic, and he's just a regular, albeit quite idiotic, guy with a few "eccentricities" and personality flaws, or jump to the other extreme and conclude that Chris is completely [[slow-in-the-minds|mentally retarded]] or full-blown schizophrenic. Some folks argue that Chris's autism is so mild that it's barely relevant, while others attribute his entire personality to it.

But the truth appears to be in the middle: Chris's characteristics are most likely a combination of genuine autism, [[Barbara Chandler|bad parenting]], isolation, and other [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental impairments]].

His symptoms are listed below, coded to match [https://archive.ph/YxSOM the official DSM-5 diagnosis:]

===A: Deficits in communication and social interaction===
====1: Social-emotional reciprocity====
Chris struggles with social-emotional reciprocity, the two-way understanding required for successful social interaction.

[[Image:Nnocac.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Trolls manipulated Chris into [[Ohio Trip|driving all the way to Ohio]] to save [[Julie|a fake girlfriend]] – the only things Chris gained from the trip were these fast food receipts. Difficulties in discerning the motives and intentions of others is regularly observed among people diagnosed with autism.]]

=====Understanding others' intentions=====
Chris has difficulty gauging others' thoughts, feelings, ideas, and intentions. He doesn't always understand that these might be different than his own, or how to predict these behaviors. In [[Clyde and Tito PS3 E-mails|an email between Clyde Cash and him]], he sent Clyde a link to [[The MovingFoward videos|a video]] he made of himself destroying his own [[PlayStation 3]]. He destroyed his PS3 under the egregiously mistaken impression that he'd be given $9,001 for it, which is in itself an indicator of his fundamental inability to gauge others' actual intents and future behavior. He filmed himself doing it specifically to prove to Clyde, who wasn't present for the destruction, that it happened according to the video's objective portrayal. However, he added that if Clyde showed the video to anyone Chris didn't mean to see it without paying him the money, "it can be considered [Clyde's] Word Alone, possible Movie Editing and Actors, and NOT Fact" as though the video would have any less evidential weight on others if he denied to them what he rightfully claimed to Clyde that it showed with enough certitude that he would give him thousands of dollars because of its being shown.

Chris places disproportional importance on literal statements. Chris acted as though he could convince others of a fact contrary to videographic evidence simply by stating it. Another example is virtually the entire [[Liquid Chris#Liquid Saga|Liquid Saga]], where Chris honestly, fervently, pathetically tried to demonstrate what was already blatantly obvious to everyone: that his name is not [[Ian Brandon Anderson]] and that Liquid was not him. He seemed to believe strongly enough [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|to become visibly frustrated]] that others might believe Liquid's statements in the face of the obvious that he had to continually counteract those statements with his own, as though just the statements were the most important or most effective means of proving what everyone already knew.

Chris is extremely gullible. While autistics can have problems with social cues such as sarcasm, thus being gullible at times, Chris is much more gullible than other autistics, let alone those that are high-functioning. This is more due to his [[Naïve|inexperience]]. One need only see his extensive [[List of Chris's sweethearts|list of sweethearts]] to see just how easily fooled he is. In addition, not only has he been fooled by trolls (of both sexes) pretending to be female sweethearts, he has fallen for trolls pretending to be [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Nintendo executives]] approaching him about making a ''Sonichu'' game. A telling statement comes from the aforementioned email to Clyde: "even if you upload the video yourself, it '''can be''' considered YOUR Word Alone[.]" (''emphasis added'') Chris might operate on the assumption that if a thing ''can be'' true, it's always reasonable to behave as though it ''is'' true no matter how slight the chance and no matter how much more likely it is to be false.

=====Empathy and sympathy=====
Chris shows very little [[White knight#Chris lacks empathy himself|empathy]] and [[Chris and kindness|concern for others]]. In his [[Chris's Plea to Clyde Cash|plea]] to Clyde, his advice after the suicide of Clyde's brother [[Ryan Cash]] was "find yourself a girlfriend." He asks for ED to [[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007|please understand]] him, because he is an "innocent victim of misunderstanding" — he wants empathy from others, but he can't return the favor. Chris primarily sees other people in terms of what they can provide for him; when accused of overstepping his bounds or other wrongdoing, he has no concept of [[Chris and remorse|remorse or apology]] except as something he must do to continue receiving favors. When forced to apologize, he makes insincere apologies followed immediately by further demands.

When Chris does attempt empathy, it's only when he already sees himself in the person, no matter how big the stretch is. This habit shows up in Chris's justifications for his votes. He voted for [[Barack Obama]] because he was a victim of discrimination, equating Obama's struggle with racism to his own struggle with autistic persecution. He mainly voted for [[Hillary Clinton]] because she was a woman, which Chris has identified as since 2014. He never looked at either candidate's platforms or voted based on actual issues, just based on who he could "see" himself in.

=====Social awareness and boundaries=====
[[Image:Chris holding sign.jpg|thumb|right|The [[attraction sign]] in action. Struggling with social norms and approaching people is a sign of autism.]]

Chris struggles with social approach. He believed that holding up a literal [[sign]] with his requirements for an eligible sweetheart was a socially acceptable way to meet people. He would [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer|pace around]] public places aimlessly, and he has difficulty initiating conversations. He sometimes starts off the convo with botched attempts at pickup lines, and [[random-access humor]]. Nowadays, much of his social approach takes the form of meet-and-greet photo ops at [[conventions]] or elsewhere, though he still screws it up.

Chris doesn't understand the concept of boundaries, whether physical or verbal. He kissed people he met seconds ago at [[TooManyGames]]. He was quite handsy with [[Megan]], [[Kacey]], and [[Emily]], and he buried his face in [[Catherine]]'s breasts. He regularly refers to his [[Mary Lee Walsh|superiors]] by their first name, sometimes even by [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford|pet names]] they don't even use. He doesn't seem to understand that different relationships call for different sets of social norms.

Chris lacks a conversational filter. He calls this [[Honest Content|honesty]]; normal people call it social dysfunction. Without provocation, he will tell you about his [[heterochromia|pinkeye]], his [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]], his autism itself, and how he is a [[virgin with rage]]. Only when his [[Barbara|mother]] told him to knock it off did he actually give up telling everyone he was a virgin.<ref>[[Chris-Chan (CWCipedia)#Chris in Person (From THEIR Point of View)]]</ref> He mostly takes interest in himself while talking, only occasionally taking interest in his conversational partner.

All of the above could be explained by Chris's lack of social awareness. One notable instance of this, as revealed in the [[autism papers]], was when two [[Chris and Race#Black_people|black]] ladies were speaking to Chris about his love quest, when Chris politely told them that they could not be his girlfriend because they were not white. Based on the report of the examiner, Chris believed he was merely informing the ladies as to his prerequisites for a potential sweetheart while oblivious to the fact he was being racially insensitive.<ref>[[Autism_papers#IDENTIFYING_STATEMENT:]]</ref>

====2: Nonverbal communication====
[[Image:0695-AnnaBD9.JPG|thumb|right|Awkward body language, as Chris displays here, is a common trait of autism.]]
[[File:0419-ChristianIs17-14.jpg|thumb|right|Demonstrating poor eye contact.]]

Chris can't show emotions well with facial expressions and body language. See [[CWC only accepts IN-PERSON FEMALE Encounters|his statement to the women of the world]] if you enjoy Chris appearing in your dreams. His inability to display emotions on his face has been called a "[[The Creepy Stare|dead fish expression]]" (though [[Barb]] displays a similar stare). When he does attempt to have an expression, it looks very cartoonish, possibly because he copied it from [[My Little Pony|actual cartoons]]. Also, notice his inconsistent eye contact in his [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]] news interview. He typically speaks in a monotone, and his attempts to sound expressive (see [[CWC's Message for Ivy]]) come off as creepy and unnatural. His incompetence with emotional display extends to his [[art]] and comics as well. He has a hard time displaying emotion on his characters' faces, and has even added emoticons :) to the speech bubbles to make up for his lack of ability to communicate through his art and writing alone.

Chris also has very poor [[Facial blindness|facial and vocal recognition skills]]. [[Julie]] was a 13-year-old boy using an obvious falsetto, and Chris fell for it. In [[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3|one chat]], the boy made no attempt to disguise his voice, and Chris was none the wiser, disclosing personal sexual details. Two images of different people were used to represent [[Blanca Weiss]], and Chris didn't notice. In a [[Vanessa AIM Chat 9|AIM Chat]] with [[Vanessa Hudgens]], she sent him a link to pictures of Megan Fox, and Chris complimented her on them, even though the two don't even have the same skin color. He didn't realize that [[Emily]] and [[Kim Wilson|Kim]] were the same person, even though their voices and laughs were obviously identical. Chris is inconsistent with his self-portraits and drawings of other people, relying more on color schemes and cosmetics (hair, clothing choices, etc.) than on facial features to distinguish them apart. In his attempt at a [[Barack Obama#White House gag|political cartoon]], he relies on labels and arrows to distinguish the characters instead of exaggerating their facial features like mainstream political cartoonists. He also depicts Obama in a traditional African cap that he seldom wears.

[[Image:0485-CWC18th16.jpg|thumb|left|Chris has had very little social interaction since high school. This is one of the few pictures of him with his [[gal pals]], and it only shows him from behind.]]

====3: Interpersonal relationships====
Chris's social dysfunction has caused him trouble with developing and maintaining relationships – platonic or romantic. Many non-autistics have the same problem, but Chris is particularly inept at socializing.

Chris's earliest friend, [[Sarah Hammer]], was more of a bully than a friend; she locked him in the crawlspace of her house and tried convincing him to eat the berries of a honeysuckle, which can induce [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|diarrhea]]. His high school [[Gal-Pals]] were "hired help": Bob and the principal arranged a deal where they were paid to hang out with Chris. He rarely hung out with them outside school hours, except on his [[My big 18th party|18th birthday]] and at [[prom]].

Chris has had very few friends as an adult. He loses friends regularly, manages to get [[banned]] from his favorite hangouts, and has no contact with any of his beloved high school Gal-Pals. He did have a circle of [[Pokémon League friends|adult friends who played Pokémon with him]], but he lost contact with them once he switched his focus to [[imaginary friends]] and online [[enablers]] after the [[Idea Guys]] managed to destroy what little remaining grip on [[reality]] Chris had.

Despite this, Chris's social life was robust compared to his love life. Chris is in his forties, and he hasn't had a serious romantic relationship or any consensual contact with the opposite sex (aside from a [[Mia Hamm|prostitute]] and [[Affair with Mother|his own mother]], though whether the latter was completely consensual remains questionable), or the [[bisexual|same sex]] for that matter. His foray into [[Dating profiles|online dating]] was a failure, and every one of his [[sweethearts]] was either [[Megan|just a friend]] or a troll. He viewed his desperate search as a [[Love Quest]] – a saga that began on his 21st birthday, and only ended when he got into a [[polyamorous marriage]] with his OCs.

Chris is also estranged from his family outside of his parents. Chris's half-brother [[Cole Smithey]] has blocked him on social media. He has little contact with his other half-brother [[David Alan Chandler|David]], and knows even less of his half-sister [[Carol Chandler|Carol]].

As with many autistics, Chris does manage to have good relationships with animals, whether [[Patti|real]] or [[Sonichu (species)|fake]]. Animals are more direct and don't have as complex of social rituals as humans. Animals also serve as a "social lubricant" for people on the spectrum. Anyone who knows anything about Temple Grandin can back this up.

===B: Chris's restricted and repetitive behaviors===
To receive an autism diagnosis, the DSM-5 requires restricted and repetitive behaviors [https://archive.ph/YxSOM in at least two of the following four categories.] Chris meets all of them; examples are given below:

====1: Movements and speech====
[[Image:KillThatHexBawx.jpg|thumb|Chris refers to the [[Xbox]] as the "HEXbox," showing both his [[brand loyalty]] and vocabulary of made-up words.|250px]]

Chris often exhibits echolalia, which means he constantly repeats phrases from his favorite television shows, movies and video games, regardless of whether they fit the current situation. In some instances, he calls this [[Random-access humor|"humor"]]. He tends to use solipsistic neologisms; that is, he creates new words that only he himself understands and expects other people to comprehend them. He uses the same terms and [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor|exact]] [[boyfriend-free girl|phrases]] [[sweetheart from the ground-up|frequently]]. Many articles on this very wiki have been written to explain the resulting [[CWC-isms]].

Autism is also linked to [[speech impediment]]s. Chris has trouble with articulation, and often slurs words together like "[[ED|Essaikapeeia Dramakka Payzh]]" and "[[Chris|Krishnwessonchanler]]." He frequently stutters, clutters his words, and speaks in a higher-pitched register.

Chris's unusual [[mannerisms]] are another sign. He rocks back and forth (dubbed "The Autistic Shuffle"), especially when [[stress]]ed. He uses the same gestures repeatedly, such as his [[stress sigh]], [[The Claw of Fail]], and the infamous [[Dramatic Glasses Removal]]. He feels the need to refer to people by their full names, plainly visible when he talks about himself, [[Clyde Cash]], or [[Adam Stackhouse]].

An overlooked but crucial characteristic affecting all of Chris's physical activity is his display of {{w|hypotonia}}, which refers to a distinct lack of muscle tone — in biological terms referring to tension rather than the colloquial use to describe muscle strength (although raw physical strength is also affected by it) — which affects motor skills as well as stamina. Chris is not only very clumsy, but he also shows abnormally low muscle strength and gets tired quickly, even by [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|simply shuffling around for a couple of minutes]] — which cannot be entirely explained by his lack of physical exercise. Whenever Chris is shown sitting, [[Charlottesville Fashion Square#Chris captured on video|he is spread around like a rag doll]], [[:File:0782-CWCSpread.JPG|hanging limply]] — as his muscles cannot support his entire body properly.

[[Image:Please,_Donate_(720p).mp400001.png|thumb|left|250px|Chris has spent the majority of his adult life in his bedroom.]]

====2: Insistence on sameness====
One of the biggest symptoms of autism Chris displays is his fear of and resistance to change, well beyond the point that it could be related to his autism. Chris is reluctant to get or even look for a job as he has only worked [[Chris's resume|four months in his entire life]], never came close to moving out [[Affair with Mother|until he was absolutely forced to]], has a very hard time selling or giving up his toys or shirts, has never stuck to a [[Chris and health|diet and exercise program]], [[Attraction Sign|doesn't try new ways to attract women]], and has a very hard time coping with his banishment from his favorite [[the GAMe PLACe|hangout spots]]. His proven tendencies to avoid responsibilities and self-improvement show that he has a very hard time moving on from his childhood lifestyle (where he had no obligations other than school), or simply fears failure of all types.

Chris thinks in absolutes and in terms of clearly defined steps in order to do something. He thinks there must be sex on or by the [[third date]]. He describes his sadness in terms of his '[[heart level]]' and briefly mentioned a [[Scale of Respect]]. He feels that if he just knows the correct steps to getting a [[sweetheart]], he will be able to find one easily. His [[dating education|crash-course in dating]] and [[Dating|suggestions to Blanca]] assume that a relationship should follow a rigidly predetermined progression instead of a natural flow. In an [[Jackie E-mails 23|exchange of e-mails with Jackie]], Chris responded to her frank descriptions of his habits and lifestyle by saying she had exceeded the "Hurtful Truth Level"; while he knows he should be appreciative of hearing the truth about himself, this was the only way he could wrap his brain around the abstract idea enough to be able to tell her he thought she'd gone too far.

Some autistic people follow rules so strictly that it's bordering OCD. Chris however, has the opposite problem. He lived in a [[14 Branchland Court|filthy, unorganized house for many years,]] makes comics with a very inconsistent plot, wears the same [[shirt]] for days at a time, and disobeys the [[Chris and the Law|law]] when it inconveniences him.

[[Image:0064-ChristianWSonic.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Autistics generally have "special interests." These interests can range from familiar subjects popular with most people, to specialized interests and areas of higher study, from elevators to astrophysics, or in Chris's case, Sonic the Hedgehog.]]

====3: Fixations and special interests====
Chris has an extremely narrow range of interests. He seems to only give a damn about video games, cartoons, prowling for his next [[sweetheart]], his initials, and [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]], so much so that he practically places [[Sonichu (character)|him]] somewhere in everything he creates. He often wishes to [[dating|combine]] two [[LittleBigPlanet#First Date Level|interests]].

Unnatural relationships with inanimate objects are also a sign of autism; Chris has evident obsessions with his [[medallion]], his game consoles, and any number of other items that clutter up his [[Chris's room|room]]. Since autistics have difficulty maintaining relationships with people, they often end up becoming emotionally dependent on objects, though this symptom is seen much more in autistic children.

Although he does not demonstrate any [[Honor roll|competency]] with them, Chris has a fixation on numbers and statistics that would generally be irrelevant to others. He describes measures in concrete terms (e.g. "5 mies[sic] from the city"<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_0/Page_2</ref> instead of "outside the city"), and has a particular obsession with times and dates, timestamping nearly every scene in the comic and giving his characters birthdays and middle names that have no relevance to the plot (unless it becomes convenient to "[[pedofork|age up]]" the characters). Needless to say, Chris's tendency to blurt out exact dates and times (assuming he's not talking out of his ass) has made the job of [[CWChronology|CWCki chronologists]] much easier. On the other hand, his haphazard treatment of dates and times in the comic has led to countless [[Continuity in the Sonichu comics#Chronology|continuity errors]].

Chris's fixations also manifest as [[brand loyalty]]. Chris has been loyal to Nintendo, Sega and Sony, to the exclusion of [[HEXbox|Microsoft]]. He's loyal to [[McDonald's]] and dislikes [[Burger King]]. He felt that [[Harry Potter]] was a threat to [[Pokemon]]. His brand loyalty went beyond simple preferences and extended to actual obsessions and hatreds. He'd hype up [[Axe]] and [[Walmart]] in videos. He'd blindly trust advertisements and even include ads of his own in his comics.

Chris's [[transgender]] identity is yet another fixation. According to psychologist Ken Zucker, trans folks are more likely to be autistic than the general population. The link is caused by, among other traits, autistics' tendency to fixate on issues (in this case, gender). Many autistic males (including Chris) also have qualities that can be considered effeminate, such as passiveness. Since they have less social awareness, they may behave in ways that can be considered atypical for either sex and display less regard for gender roles. Chris and many other autistics perceive their quirks as being "female in a male body" or vice versa, and assume that they will fit in better as their desired sex.

His fixation showed itself strongly when Sega changed [[Sonic]]'s arms from tan to [[Sonic Boom protests|blue]]. Chris launched a crusade that ended with him [[26 December 2014|macing an innocent GameStop employee]]; a criminal offense launched entirely by a minor change to a fictional character who happens to be Chris's icon.

====4: Sensory processing====
[[Image:Wrist Warmer.jpg|thumb|left|Chris wearing a wrist warmer with his medallion to reduce sensory discomfort from its chain. Differences in how the body processes sensory stimuli are a common characteristic of autism.]]

Autism affects how the brain interprets the senses. Chris is often either hypo- or hypersensitive to sensory stimulation. Chris often wears his accessories and medallions over top of his clothing to avoid skin contact with metals and plastics. This is evident in the way in which Chris wears his watch over the cuff of his sleeve and wraps his medallion through the collar of his shirt.<ref>[[:File:0793-CWCIs24-2.jpg]]</ref> Most obvious, however, is his [[Fashion#Wrist_warmer|wrist warmer]], which he places on the chain of his medallion. Chris has stated that "[...] it is a part of my necklace; it's a "Wilson" wrist-warmer I use to cover the discomfort of the number of Links back there."<ref>Email from Chris posted in old PVCC thread 162</ref> Loud sounds also bother Chris. He skipped pep rallies in high school,<ref>[[August 2013 Facebook Posts#Actual friendships]]</ref> and has expressed hesitation about visiting bars because of the noise. He is also likely to have taste-related sensory issues, given that he has a [[Chris and nutrition|bland and unhealthy diet]] as well as a [[Pickle#Pickled cucumbers|hatred for pickles]] (a strong-tasting food), which long predates the term's infamous usage to refer to male genitalia.

Sensory dysfunction isn't limited to the five external senses – it extends to internal, "hidden senses" such as balance, body position, [[Obesity|hunger]], thirst, [[biological clock|time]], [[pickles|gag reflex]], and internal body pressure (such as when one has to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the facilities]]).

==Severity of Chris's autism==
[[Image:CWCBitchesDunno.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris will be quick to tell you about it, though.]]

Informally, autism may be subdivided into separate classifications based on the intelligence and degree of function the autistic individual possesses; for a general idea, this crude scale could have levels of high-functioning, medium-functioning, and low-functioning. Chris has latched onto this concept and will frequently qualify his condition, saying he has '''high-functioning autism''', or '''HFA'''. Generally, HFA is loosely defined as; the ability to live in the mainstream world as opposed to being institutionalized, having near-normal comprehension, demonstrating fluent speech, and possessing average or above-average intellect. This presents Christian with an easy scapegoat and alibi: he cannot be blamed for his own failures because he has autism, but he does not accept treatment or advice for his "medium" or "low" level autistic traits because he's ''high-functioning'' and therefore, nearly normal. Chris believes he can do much more than any low-functioning autistic could, even as he lived with [[Barbara Chandler|his mother]] well into his thirties, has never had a real girlfriend or held a steady job, and [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|soils his pants]] on a semi-regular basis.<ref>[[Mumble 3]]</ref>

[[Trolls]] have often noted that the "high-functioning" qualifier is '''not''' a clinical diagnosis and is '''not''' recognized by the {{w|DSM-IV|DSM-IV-TR}} or the {{w|ICD-10}}. This usually goes hand-in-hand with questioning the severity and/or diagnosis of Chris's impairment, if not outright calling him a [[List of Chris's lies|liar]]. However, the Chandlers didn't make the "HFA" label up, and compared to autistics who can barely speak and just walk in circles all day, Chris is relatively close to neurotypical; he can talk, drive, write and draw, [[Speech impediment|even if]] [[Chris and art|he's not]] [[Son-Chu#Distracted driving|the best]] [[Chris and writing|at these things]]. A major argument against the HFA label is that Chris himself allegedly stopped speaking at the age of one and didn't speak again until he was seven. This is a major language delay, and he would have been considered low-functioning at the time. This is especially relevant since Chris was diagnosed in the eighties, and HFA/Asperger's was only recognized in the English-speaking world in the 1990s. At the time of his diagnosis, being autistic required at least a delay in speech acquisition, if not complete muteness.

The newer {{w|DSM-5}} ''does'' split autism into three different levels of severity based on the amount of support needed. The new term for "High-Functioning Autism" is "Autism Spectrum Disorder [[Vidya|Level 1]]", often subtitled 'Requiring support'. Chris is most likely on the lower functioning end of Level 1, though his developmental delays in early childhood, significant difficulties navigating social situations and stunted life skills could still put him on the cusp of Level 2, meaning 'Requiring substantial support'.

Semantics aside, though, it's clear that Chris is far from normally-functioning. Only an [[Autism papers|updated]] [[28 October 2011#Arraignment, plea bargain, and sentencing|psychological profile]] would really provide insight into the complex and controversial mixture of autism and mental illness that is present within Christian.

==Onset and diagnosis of Chris's autism==
{{quote|No one GIVES A SHIT that you are autistic, they NEVER DID.|[[Jackie E-mails 23|Jackie]], telling Chris something he'll flat out ignore.}}
[[Image:SchuComic10P09.jpg|thumb|Now GodBearJesus can't get him to shut up.]]

Chris's version of how he developed autism is best explained in the [[Song of Christian]] video. There, he explains how a [[Abusive babysitter|babysitter]] locked him in a room filled with toys at around age 1 1/2. After crying for hours, he emerged from the room unable to talk; as Chris himself puts it, "[[Chris and religion|God]] put the mute button on me."<ref>[[Song of Christian#The actual poem]]</ref> (This implies that Chris could talk before this incident, which directly contradicts Chris's own parents stating that he never spoke until around the age of seven.) Most specialists claim that these symptoms of autism begin to show around that age anyway,<ref>{{w|Autism#Characteristics|Wikipedia: Characteristics of autism}}</ref> so even if the events of the story happened, the babysitter didn't cause the autism. It is far more likely that Chris's parents simply looked for anyone to blame for Chris's sudden loss of language development, even a random babysitter. Notably, Chris has diverged from this story before, having claimed at least once that he was intentionally "injected" with autism by doctors when he was a child as if that were even possible. Nevertheless, it speaks volumes on the [[List of Chris's lies|veracity]] of the former account if he can't even keep his story straight, not to mention that Chris probably [[Naïve|has little idea on the causes of autism]] anyway.

As for how Chris ''actually'' became autistic, studies have shown that there is a [https://archive.is/PROpt positive correlation between the age of the mother and the risk of autism]. Given that [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] was 40 years old when she gave birth to Chris, this is a likely explanation.

It is also worth noting that [[Bob]] was an engineer, and studies have found higher autism rates among children of engineers (and other technical occupations).<ref>https://archive.is/BHfBO</ref> Bob's granddaughter [[Savannah]] is also autistic.

It is currently unclear how Chris came to be considered as "autistic," although Chris has claimed that his parents possess official documentation about this in a safe. When pressed to release this information, he provided a [[autism papers|2004 psychiatric evaluation]] that states Chris was diagnosed with autism when he was "around age five or six." However, there's no way to be sure if the evaluator simply wrote down Chris's responses to his questions or independently verified them. (For example, Chris might not remember his exact age when he was diagnosed, but you'd think his medical records could be more precise than "five or six.") By the time of the Chandlers' legal battle with Greene County, Chris's autism seemed to have become a universally accepted fact, but the details of how, when, and where Chris was diagnosed remain a mystery.

When recounting his childhood, Chris usually skips straight from the "evil babysitter" incident to age seven, so we know very little about what (if any) treatment he received during this crucial period of development. In a [[CWCipedia]] [[mailbag]], Chris claims that when he was young, his parents were told he would never be able to read, write or function on a normal level. He and his doctors have now upgraded his condition to "high-functioning," but apparently, his incredibly abysmal upbringing has actually allowed it to progress to mid-functioning at best.

In his "Song of Christian" video, he explains that his mother took him to the toy department and coaxed him to read aloud the names of Go-Bots, and later [[Transformers]]. Chris says he began speaking again when he was seven – that is, in [[1989]], when the Transformers line was on its last legs and the Go-Bots line had long since vanished. This would seem to indicate that this form of "therapy" had to have gone on for several years before producing any results.

==Persecution==
Chris attended [[Greene County Primary School]], apparently without incident, from age 5 until age 9. Problems arose for him in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], where he alleges that the faculty wanted to remove him from mainstream classrooms and send him to what he calls an institution. He also claims that the teachers at the school held him down and recorded his screams. Chris frequently cites this as evidence that the school was senselessly cruel towards him, for no reason apparent to him except an innate fear and distrust of autistic people. More probable, given Chris's ongoing behavioral issues, is that he threw a temper tantrum so big it forced the faculty to physically restrain him while refusing to restrain himself. There's no way to know if Greene Elementary treated Chris unfairly, but the incident does suspiciously resemble Chris's [[arrest]] in July 2005. The Chandlers sued to prevent the school board from removing Chris from mainstream education before ultimately relocating to Chesterfield County to continue Chris's mainstreaming there.

Chris frequently brings up that the reason people used to [[Kick the Autistic|be cruel to him]] in his childhood was because "they did not understand Autism." In the [[1980s]]. When autism had been known for around 40 years. When asked about why they did not understand, Chris delivers his canned response of "I do not know."

There's no way to know how much of Chris's attitude about the Greene County crisis is based on his personal recollections or what he was later told by his parents, who themselves seem unusually paranoid about the county's vendetta against their family. However, the result of the incident is clear: Chris emerged from adolescence firmly believing that many people not only misunderstand autistic people but also hate and fear them. He seems to believe this prejudice is based not on a person's actions (e.g. throwing fits and irrationally screaming) but on a person's mere identification as autistic, regardless of function. Given Chris's fear of low-functioning autistics, he may in fact think this prejudice is [[Chris and hypocrisy|perfectly justified]], but wrongfully targeted at a high-functioning individual. Of course, in Chris's mind, he may as well be the only high-functioning autistic in the Universe, so he is the one and only innocent victim in "everyone's favorite game, [[Kick the Autistic]]."

Chris's tactful and sensitive comments on a news story about a woman with [[Asperger syndrome]] being raped revealed that he believes the media, like the rest of the world, has a bias against autism similar to "{{w|Missing white woman syndrome|Missing White Woman Syndrome}}," and that the story wouldn't have been reported if the victim was a woman with "proper" autism.

==Chris's misconceptions about autism==
It's not clear that Chris has any understanding of what, precisely, autism is, except that a) he has it, b) it's a bad thing, and c) [[Chris and his ego|he's a brave little boy for living with it]]. His song "[[A-U-T-I-S-M]]" sums up his attitudes about the disorder:

{{quote|A-U-T-I-S-M: what does it mean? Silence and friends unseen! A few brains as well: that is autism! And that makes us seem special to you!|Chris, attempting to spell out autism in more ways than one}}

To Chris, that's all it is — a condition that makes you a bit smarter than normal human beings and mysteriously makes people not want to be your friend.

[[File:Mii.jpg|thumb|right|Chris's personification of autism for beating up in ''Super Smash Bros.'']]

Chris also seems to only be aware of the symptoms of autism that fit in with his odd, pseudo-Bohemian lifestyle. Asexuality is very common in autistic people; this is because any form of romance or sex may be too intimate for an autistic mind to cope with. This completely contradicts Chris's "[[Love Quest]]" and suggests that he is actually trying to compensate for his inability to feel true sexual attraction, even if that means becoming a genuinely disturbing pervert. His tone-deafness for singing is fairly unusual for an autistic individual as well – autistic people tend to have stronger pitch perception, and they are more likely to have perfect pitch than the general population.

Chris [[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|considers himself to have "Helped cultivate the First Generation of Autistic People,"]] suggesting that he believes [[Chris and his ego|he is a prevalent figure in the autistic community.]].

In a [[May 2010]] [[Some Favored Comedians|video]], he stated that our society is spending so much time on the Internet that ''everyone'' is becoming autistic.<ref>[[Toucher and Rich Segment#Chris's Response|Chris responds to Toucher and Rich, May 2009]]</ref><ref>[[Some Favored Comedians]]</ref> This further proves that people with little to no social contact shouldn't attempt social commentary. That, and Chris has no fucking clue what his own disorder is actually ''like''. In [[November 2010]], he tried to use this excuse to guilt-trip [[Jackie]] into being sorry for yelling at him, which worked as well as you'd expect.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 23]]</ref>

Chris's failure to understand the symptoms of autism may well explain some of his odd behaviors. Due to a lack of social activity and poor theory of mind, Chris doesn't seem to realize that his behaviors are what they are, as best demonstrated by his belief that [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|it is normal for an adult to shit themselves]]. Chris does not recognize the differences between himself and others, and this applies to the differences between himself and neurotypicals - and, seeing no differences, he believes his autism to have been thoroughly conquered, even while embodying every single trait of it.

===Chris on the causes of autism===
There's a broad scientific consensus that autism largely arises from genetic factors. Chris's own case is consistent with the theory that children born to older parents are at greater risk of developing autism.<ref>https://archive.ph/ckSNI</ref> Bob and Barb were 54 and 40, respectively, when Chris was conceived.

Chris's own expressed views on the root causes of autism are all over the map. He's espoused a few different theories at different times and in different situations. His oldest theory, dating back to the [[Song of Christian]] in the late 1990s, is that the [[abusive babysitter]] was responsible for his condition. In [[Mumble 3|his arguments with]] [[Clyde Cash]] in early 2009, he said that "scientifically speaking, [autism] has possibly come from a drug, or otherwise it may possibly be genetic," and that the babysitter incident merely "brought out the, uh, curse that was buried within me."

When explaining his condition to [[Father Call|Matt Devoria]] late in the fall of 2009, Chris insisted that autism has no genetic factors. In that instance, however, he had an obvious agenda. He hoped to convince Matt that any children he fathered with Matt's daughter [[Kacey]] wouldn't wind up inheriting his condition; because of this, it's difficult to say exactly how sincere he happened to be at that moment.

To muddle the issue even ''further'', in [[Mailbag 12]], Chris blamed the cause of autism on a shot "the doctor's [sic] optionally give to the child after birth," apparently in reference to the highly disputed {{w|MMR vaccine controversy|urban myth}} alleging that childhood vaccinations lead to autism. It's not likely that Chris even has that much of an awareness of the facts and assertions of said myth, and was probably looking for a throwaway excuse to deny any hereditary factors.

In a [[Some Favored Comedians|video]] in 2010, Chris said the Internet made people autistic, likely confusing the hyperbolic claim often made jokingly to that effect with fact. Ironically, Chris's excessive use of the Internet in place of human interaction has probably done more to exacerbate his symptoms than almost anything else.

In his [[Autism Tutorial Part 1|Autism Tutorial]] from early 2011, Chris slewed back toward a more mainstream view, discussing the genetic factors behind autism and complaining about how his parents conceived him late in life. He also, however, warned viewers that smoking, drinking, or exposure to car exhaust could cause dangerous genetic damage that might result in autistic children.

===Chris versus Asperger syndrome===
{{see also|Asperger syndrome}}

Chris is easily outraged by any attempt to associate or confuse autism, high-functioning or otherwise, with Asperger syndrome, a similar condition now considered by many experts to overlap with HFA on the autistic spectrum. In fact, Asperger syndrome was eliminated and replaced with "autism spectrum disorder, level 1" in the new DSM-V, making both the condition and "high-functioning autism" one and the same.<ref>https://archive.is/TPWcu</ref>) At times, Chris has stated that he dislikes Asperger syndrome because sufferers of the disorder supposedly steal sympathy away from autism awareness. He has also claimed that the name is too close to "ass burger" or "ass booger" for his taste.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> In the early days of the [[CWCipedia]] [[Mailbag]], asking Chris about Asperger syndrome was the most effective way to troll him; this culminated in the creation of [[Asperchu]].

In the present, Chris simply hates Asperger syndrome because it reminds him of how angry he got the last time someone brought it up — in other words, a completely unjustifiable opinion. Chris has declared himself "close-minded" on the subject, dismissing all scientific opinion contrary to his own, and angrily refuses to be convinced that he does not occupy a more favorable (exactly what that means depends on whether Chris is looking for pity or adulation at the time) tier of the spectrum.

===Chris on Neurotypicality===



Chris also has little understanding of the concept of neurotypicality, the state of lacking any kind of neurologically atypical traits. Some people on the autism spectrum, especially those with [[Asperger syndrome|Aspergers]], are deemed to be of above-average intelligence or possess a special talent in another field like music or art. Chris has taken that to mean that he himself must also be in that same group of autistics, where he is much smarter than the average person. This is especially prevalent during the [[Dimensional Merge]] era, where he refers to non-believers as "neurotypically hindered."

===Alternate phrasing===
{{quote|I have a dementia problem that makes me fall mentally blank|Chris substituting dementia for autism<ref name=doopietweet>[[April 2017 tweets#Doopie defends Chris]]</ref>}}
Chris sometimes uses alternative ways to describe his autism, such as when he hears a new phrase - inapplicable as it may be - and tries to shoehorn it into use.

This was seen during [[April 2017]], when Chris attended care-giving classes in order to help out his [[mother]] around the house. During the classes, Chris learned of the term "dementia", mistakenly believing it to be an umbrella term for mental conditions in general.<ref>[[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04272017]]</ref> Chris applied the term to himself, in reference to his autism disorder, in video<ref>[[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04192017 - The Shirt]]</ref> and on [[Twitter]]<ref name=doopietweet></ref> mid-month. Chris ceased misusing the word afterwards.

More absurdly, when Chris learned of the fictional power "Avatar State" from the animated series ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', he also tried applying it towards his autism disorder. In a tweet from [[January 2021]], he claimed that his "zombie and robot-like state" (such as when he was photographed at [[The GAMe PLACe]]) is an advanced form of the Avatar State.<ref>[[January 2021 social media posts#Successful heavy meditate hour]]</ref>

==Chris on autism education==
Chris is a firm believer in mainstream education for children with autism, a trait he doubtlessly picked up from his parents, who went to [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School|incredible lengths]] to keep him in mainstream classrooms throughout his school years. He had special education classes in addition to his mainstreaming - [[coping]] skills classes during both middle and high school.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails]]</ref>

[[Mailbag 12|When asked for his advice on how to raise an autistic child]], Chris replied, "...Most importantly, MAINSTREAM; let your child be free to communicate and associate with the Normal Society. Special Education is okay, but that will not do in the longest run." Later, [[Mailbag 15|for advice on how "to succeed despite being afflicted with Asperger's"]], Chris's only response was, "My advice is to Mainstream the child."

During a [[04232010 - Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless|video from April 2010]], Chris read off a lengthy printout of autism-related information. After quoting a passage about how the education of autistic children should be undertaken by trained professionals in specialized settings, Chris offered his own opinion.

{{quote|As for me though, I highly recommend mainstreaming, lettin' 'em go though normal life. I mean yeah, give 'em the special treatment while they're young... but when you get 'em in elementary or middle school... or high school, mainstream is the way to go.|Chris, [[04232010 - Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless|Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless]]}}

In short, Chris believes that the approach that produced the man as we know him today (i.e. ignoring the problem and doing nothing to help it) is the best possible way to raise and educate children with autism.

==Autism cured?==
[[Image:454-CWCsPossibleFuture.JPG|thumb|Autism appears to be in Chris's future...]]

Chris's greatest dream is that his autism might one day be cured (although [[Pixelated PS3|in 2006]] he would have unhesitatingly sacrificed such a cure in order to obtain a [[PlayStation 3]]). There are instances of children inexplicably recovering from the symptoms, but there is no known cure for autism that can simply be applied to everyone like Chris's "[[Sonichu 10|homo vaccine]]." Imagine the surprise of the mental health community, then, when Chris revealed in [[March 2009]] that he had overcome his autism once and for all:<ref>[[Sarah May Skype Logs#Chris is over his autism]]</ref>

:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' I'm not going to blame it on my autism; I have realized that I am over that now.
:'''Sarah May:''' Over what?
:'''Sarah May:''' Over your autism?
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' yes
:'''Sarah May:''' . . .
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' anyway, what is it that you want to do?
:'''Sarah May:''' Christian
:'''Sarah May:''' Are you serious?
:'''Sarah May:''' Autism is not influenza
:'''Sarah May:''' You don't 'get over it'
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' I've broken out of my autistic shell, and I am better able to socialize in public, with the past practices online.

Chris claimed during the same chat that he may not be making sense due to a virus, easily allowing for him to retract this. Fortunately, Chris has discovered that [[stress]] is a more socially popular scapegoat for his personal shortcomings. Of course, people learn to manage stress, but what do you expect?

As of [[May 2009]], Chris seemed to have regained his autism and was back to blaming it for all his problems, seemingly believing that autism is as easy to shake/regain as the common flu. However, [[November 2009]] saw Chris again claiming to have been miraculously cured, as stated at the end of part 2 of his [[Sonichu Powerpoint]] presentations, where he described himself as a "high-functioning autistic ''recovered''." A [[December 2009|month later]], Chris again backpedaled; in response to ED's claim he was "suffering" from autism, he [[Chris chan (CWCipedia)|agreed]] that "''I still am for real.''"

Chris's flip-flopping self-diagnosis simply illustrates the misunderstanding of his problems. Since autism is his scapegoat for when he fucks up, to him, that's really all it is — a disease that makes people fuck up all the time. Therefore, when he fails, he has a bad case of autism, and when everything is going well (such as when he believes he has a girlfriend), he thinks the autism has gone away. What Chris really wants, then, is not a cure for autism but a life in which nothing happens that he would need to blame on his autism; that is, a life in which he has a girlfriend and nobody criticizes him.

In June of 2016, he [[Announcement 06292016#Announcement 06292016-2|claimed to have cured his autism]] using [[Subliminal Frequency Hypnosis|binaural beats]]. He stated that the track made him think more clearly and [[Chris and socialization|interact better with others]]. However, he has shown no improvement in the quality of his recent videos, and he would continue to make autism-related content in the future.

==Things Chris has not blamed on his autism==
[[Image:Tumbleweed.gif|What did you expect?]]

==Chris and other autistics==
===Chris on other autistics===
{{Dated}}
Listening to Chris go on about "us TRUE and HONEST autistics," you might think he has some kind of misplaced sense of autistic solidarity. But this would merely be dumb, and Chris-chan always shoots for both dumb and repugnant, so the reality is that he doesn't give a shit about anyone's autism but his own.

Disgustingly, but perhaps not surprisingly, Chris detests [[Slow-in-the-minds|low-functioning autistics]] in the [[Chris and hypocrisy|exact manner]] that he fears normal people will detest him. In [[Mailbag 25#High functioning babble|Mailbag 25]], he compares those with low-functioning autism with those who suffer from severe retardation or severe brain damage, thinking that they would have their arms linked together, have deformities, be confined to wheelchairs or crutches and drool and grunt and growl. He has also described them in extremely cruel and derisive terms, calling them "windows to hell"<ref>[[IRC (17 December 2008)]]</ref> and compared them to "zombies."<ref>[[Mailbag_5#In which Chris speaks ill of the handicapped|Mailbag 5]]</ref><ref>[[Mailbag_11#Elevators are important for the handicapped, so they don't want any phobias|Mailbag 11]]</ref><ref>[[Mailbag_25#High functioning babble|Mailbag 25]]</ref> The irony of his resentment toward "low-functioning" autistic people is that he has a severely autistic cousin, as revealed in the [[autism papers]]; this probably means that either Chris is not aware of his own relatives (very probable), or he has disowned members of his own family on the basis of them having the same medical condition that he has (albeit more severely affected by it), being the autism-Nazi he is.<ref>[[Asperger syndrome]]</ref> Furthermore, many much lower functioning autistics lead far more independent and fulfilling lives than Chris does.

He has once expressed a disdain for others with high-functioning autism, with HFA being one of the characteristics excluding a woman from being a [[attraction sign|potential sweetheart]]. He explains that he refuses to date a girl with any form of autism because he fears that seeing them will make him think about what he might be like if he had anything other than high-functioning autism.<ref>[[Chris_chan_(CWCipedia)#Chris_Chan_on_sticking_things_up_b.2A.2A.2Ahole.|Chris chan (CWCipedia)]]</ref> Meanwhile, he looks at people with [[Asperger Syndrome]], who are on roughly the same part of the spectrum as him, as dirty whores trying to somehow steal the limelight from "real" autistics (ironically, many feel this way about Chris).

Chris has only once included another autistic person in his comics. In emails with [[Sarah Jackson]], she told Chris that her sister was also a high-functioning autistic. When Sarah was included in [[Sonichu 9#Episode 19: Date Ed (Even Though the Idea Sounds Dated)|Episode 19]], so was her sister, [[Rita]]. When Rita was given dialogue after Sarah's [[death]], what she said made so little sense grammatically (even by [[Chris and writing|Chris's standards]]) that it is hard to see it as unintentional. It can, therefore, be speculated that Chris, thinking his own autism so much better than anyone else's, was attempting to make Rita seem as unintelligent as he assumes other autistics and people with mental disorders are.

His stance on autistic people would seem to shift a little in 2011, with him further believing himself to be a spokesperson for autism. Chris had attempted to educate people about autistic people in his ''LittleBigPlanet2'' series, the [[Autism Tutorial]]. The second part of the series had Chris decreeing that all autistic people should "man and woman up, respectively" in order to socialize with other people. In the extra part of the series, Chris slapped his representation of Hans Asperger out of the belief that he "selfishly put his ill name" with association with the disorder.

Chris has also claimed that his long-time friend [[Anna McLerran]] is autistic.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 20 October 2021]]</ref>

===Other autistics and Chris===
It should be noted that not all autistics are like Chris. Every person's experience with autism is different, and every autistic person has a different combination of symptoms, social skills, sensory issues, empathy, special interests, routines, repetitive and restrictive behaviors and more.

A common analogy for this is that an autistic brain is a "melting pot" or "soup" of symptoms and behaviors <ref>https://autisticadvocacy.tumblr.com/post/113883336014/shades-of-slander</ref>. One person's soup might just be a bit salty, but still good, as they might show a few symptoms but still live a happy life. Another person's soup might taste horrible without seasoning, as they might need some support to function day-to-day.

It just so happens that Chris's soup is a disgusting mixture of sewage, [[April 16 Fetish Vids|Fanta]], rotten eggs and [[Semen|comeuppance]], as he has an extremely unfortunate combination of symptoms and behaviors.

==Autism Deferred Disposition==
{{main|Autism disorder deferred disposition}}
{{quote|and the court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the criminal conduct was caused by or had a direct and substantial relationship to the person's disorder or disability|Excerpt from §19.2-303.6<ref name=autismcard>https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/19.2-303.6/</ref>}}

In [[August 2021]], Chris was arrested for the charge of [[incest]] on his [[mother]]. During the court proceedings, his court-appointed lawyer, [[David Heilberg]], filed on 5 [[August 2022]] for §19.2-303.6<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 9 August 2022 Pleadings-Orders.png]]</ref> - deferred disposition based on Chris having autism, which the court granted. In effect, the law provides that if the court would be justified in a finding of guilt, and that autism had a direct cause in Chris's actions in being a motherfucker, then any further proceedings could instead be deferred and Chris put on probationary terms. While the following events are unclear, due to the case being sealed at Heilberg's request (although public records still revealed information), the court appears to have granted the deferred disposition motion.<ref name=autismcard></ref>

'''Autism''', also known as '''autism spectrum disorder''' ('''ASD''') is a neurodevelopmental disorder and the lens through which [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]] experiences the world. It is impossible to understand Chris's [[Chris and anger|defensiveness]], [[Chris and stress|hypersensitivity]], [[Examples of Chris's Ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and remorse|irresponsibility]], [[Man in the Pickle Suit|paranoia]], [[Greene County Conspiracy|victimhood]], [[Story of My Current Days|self-pity]], and [[Chris and reality|poor grasp on reality]] without understanding his relationship with autism.

Chris was diagnosed with the disorder in his early childhood (at a time when far less was understood about the disorder), and it became a cornerstone of his identity and influence on how he would act, alongside potentially other undiagnosed psychological or neurodevelopmental disorders. It should be noted that Chris's autism is not reflective of the experiences that most people with the disorder have, but since Chris has consistently pointed to autism whenever he does something wrong, and we have no way of knowing what other disorders Chris may have without access to his medical documents, this article serves as good a place as any to discuss the nature of Chris's neuroses, whether they are tied to autism or not.

==Overview==
{{Protip|There is considerable debate on how to refer to the autism community, with some preferring diagnosis-based language (i.e. "Chris has autism"), adjectives (i.e., "Chris is autistic"), or nouns (i.e., "Chris is an autistic"). Since Chris has never appeared to have a preference, the CWCki uses these terms interchangeably.}}

{{w|Autism}} is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulty in communication and social interactions: issues that usually surface in childhood and carry on throughout life if not treated early on. The disorder represents a spectrum of different symptoms, behaviors, intellects, and support needs. Autism can also lead to restrictive and repetitive behaviors, intense passions known as special interests, and unusual fixations or approaches to stimulation. No two people with autism are exactly the same, and many common autism traits can even contradict each other (i.e. no eye contact vs. [[creepy stare|intense eye contact]]).

[[Image:461-AutismFight.jpg|thumb|200px|Chris at war with autism (or "ATSIMU") in [[China]]. Too bad you can't fight cannons with [[fangs]].]]

Autism is traditionally associated with either [[Slow-in-the-minds|intellectual disability]] or [[Honor roll|above-average intelligence]] (or both in the case of savants), but most autistic people carry average intelligence. The autism spectrum historically covered a number of related diagnoses, including [[Asperger's syndrome]], [[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|which Chris resents]]. The DSM-5 replaced these diagnoses with a single diagnosis of ''autism spectrum disorder'', divided into three levels based on support needs.

Due to his status as an internet celebrity and lolcow, it goes without saying that Chris has a very unusual case of autism. Since he is arguably the most documented autistic person in modern history, he affects public perceptions of the disorder on the internet. That being said, it is highly likely that Chris has ''many'' other issues beyond just having autism, since Chris has demonstrated problems that can't simply be explained away by the disorder. (For instance, it shouldn't have taken him six or seven years to learn how to speak, even with severe symptoms. Meanwhile, his severe delusions that spiraled later in life demonstrate signs of a schizoaffective disorder.) Without a proper medical diagnosis, in part thanks to Chris's history of avoiding cooperation with people trying to help him understand himself on that level, autism remains the typical scapegoat to explain Chris's behavior, even if the truth may be more complicated.

Chris has built much of his identity around his high-functioning autism. His terror of being associated with severely autistic people causes him to be overly eager to prove his basic competence and cite his success in primary and secondary education. At the same time, his pride from accomplishing these things in spite of his disability has conditioned him to demand outrageous praise for his slightest efforts and infinite patience for his gravest errors. Moreover, Chris's belief that the entire Greene County Board of Education continues to irrationally persecute him for his autism has left him suspicious of opposing points of view and resolute that anti-autistic prejudice is the reason for any of his setbacks. The angst he has over his unsatisfactory graduation is made manifest in [[Sonichu (comic)|his webcomic]] as [[Count Graduon|one of the work's key villains]].

Chris not only seems to think that having autism imbues him with a [[Chris and his ego|special significance]], but also feels that his autism is completely different from that of literally every other person in the world who has autism (which, while not ''totally'' wrong, is a gross oversimplification of the disorder's spectral nature). Chris feels he is naturally better than everyone else and often talks down to people who display knowledge or experience of subjects he is unfamiliar with. During his conversation with [[Father Call|Kacey's father]], Chris downplayed Kacey's knowledge of biology and healthcare despite being proven wrong mere minutes before in a debate over the genetics of autism.<ref>[[Father Call#Financial Situation and Crystal the Tard Baby (11:01-18:28)]]</ref> At the same time, Chris believes he is not responsible for the majority of his mistakes. By being autistic, Chris rationalizes that it is wholly the fault of autism if he [[Twin Falling Towers|he]] [[SheCameForCWC.jpg|makes]] [[Piedmont Virginia Community College#Kicked out of college|poor]] [[Affair with Mother|decisions]].<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 20]]</ref>

==Chris's symptoms==
{{protip|Do not use Chris to bash all autistic people, and do not complain about how he gives autism a bad name. He is one person on the autism ''spectrum''. This article mostly deals with Chris's autism.}}

[[Image:0430-ChristianWTallStack2.jpg|thumb|Stacking objects is a common symptom of autism, and is often one of its first signs in a young child.]]

A 2004 [[Autism papers|psychiatric evaluation]] confirms that Chris has ''autistic disorder''. Though his original childhood diagnosis papers are [[2014 house fire|presumably lost forever]], Chris was diagnosed by actual specialists, not armchair psychologists.

Nevertheless, many [[trolls]] dispute the exact diagnosis of Chris's mental condition, on the basis that his observed behavior is inconsistent with that of various other autistics. CWC-related forums (and other forums, for that matter) have seen numerous testimonials about people who are undeniably autistic but nowhere near as fucked up as Chris has turned out to be, and in general, these forums do not consider Chris to be an example of what most autistics are like. They are well-aware that the condition is a spectrum.

Quite often, autistics are indeed able to learn social skills to a certain extent in the context of intellectual learning. Others can learn social skills the old-fashioned way, usually through joining a group and coming out of their shell. Some can even come off as being completely neurotypical because they have come to realize that they must adapt to others' expectations of what's acceptable if they wish to succeed in life. They may also adopt the alternative approach of "Haters Gonna Hate," surrounding themselves with like-minded people and not giving a fuck about the bullies.

Chris, however, demonstrates a willful ignorance of normalcy, with a sense of entitlement coupled with an expectation that others should not only understand his ridiculous idiosyncrasies, but also accept them at face value. Sometimes, he even wishes to force [[Dating education|them]] upon others.

A layman might come to the conclusion that Chris is not autistic, and he's just a regular, albeit quite idiotic, guy with a few "eccentricities" and personality flaws, or jump to the other extreme and conclude that Chris is completely [[slow-in-the-minds|mentally retarded]] or full-blown schizophrenic. Some folks argue that Chris's autism is so mild that it's barely relevant, while others attribute his entire personality to it.

But the truth appears to be in the middle: Chris's characteristics are most likely a combination of genuine autism, [[Barbara Chandler|bad parenting]], isolation, and other [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental impairments]].

His symptoms are listed below, coded to match [https://archive.ph/YxSOM the official DSM-5 diagnosis:]

===A: Deficits in communication and social interaction===
====1: Social-emotional reciprocity====
Chris struggles with social-emotional reciprocity, the two-way understanding required for successful social interaction.

[[Image:Nnocac.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Trolls manipulated Chris into [[Ohio Trip|driving all the way to Ohio]] to save [[Julie|a fake girlfriend]] – the only things Chris gained from the trip were these fast food receipts. Difficulties in discerning the motives and intentions of others is regularly observed among people diagnosed with autism.]]

=====Understanding others' intentions=====
Chris has difficulty gauging others' thoughts, feelings, ideas, and intentions. He doesn't always understand that these might be different than his own, or how to predict these behaviors. In [[Clyde and Tito PS3 E-mails|an email between Clyde Cash and him]], he sent Clyde a link to [[The MovingFoward videos|a video]] he made of himself destroying his own [[PlayStation 3]]. He destroyed his PS3 under the egregiously mistaken impression that he'd be given $9,001 for it, which is in itself an indicator of his fundamental inability to gauge others' actual intents and future behavior. He filmed himself doing it specifically to prove to Clyde, who wasn't present for the destruction, that it happened according to the video's objective portrayal. However, he added that if Clyde showed the video to anyone Chris didn't mean to see it without paying him the money, "it can be considered [Clyde's] Word Alone, possible Movie Editing and Actors, and NOT Fact" as though the video would have any less evidential weight on others if he denied to them what he rightfully claimed to Clyde that it showed with enough certitude that he would give him thousands of dollars because of its being shown.

Chris places disproportional importance on literal statements. Chris acted as though he could convince others of a fact contrary to videographic evidence simply by stating it. Another example is virtually the entire [[Liquid Chris#Liquid Saga|Liquid Saga]], where Chris honestly, fervently, pathetically tried to demonstrate what was already blatantly obvious to everyone: that his name is not [[Ian Brandon Anderson]] and that Liquid was not him. He seemed to believe strongly enough [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|to become visibly frustrated]] that others might believe Liquid's statements in the face of the obvious that he had to continually counteract those statements with his own as though just the statements were the most important or most effective means of proving what everyone already knew.

Chris is extremely gullible. While autistics can have problems with social cues such as sarcasm, thus being gullible at times, Chris is much more gullible than other autistics, let alone ones that are high-functioning. This is more due to his [[Naïve|inexperience]]. One need only see his extensive [[List of Chris's sweethearts|list of sweethearts]] to see just how easily fooled he is. In addition, not only has he been fooled by trolls (of both sexes) pretending to be female sweethearts, he has fallen for trolls pretending to be [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Nintendo executives]] approaching him about making a ''Sonichu'' game. A telling statement comes from the aforementioned email to Clyde: "even if you upload the video yourself, it '''can be''' considered YOUR Word Alone[.]" (''emphasis added'') Chris might operate on the assumption that if a thing ''can be'' true, it's always reasonable to behave as though it ''is'' true no matter how slight the chance and no matter how much more likely it is to be false.

=====Empathy and sympathy=====
Chris shows very little [[White knight#Chris lacks empathy himself|empathy]] and [[Chris and kindness|concern for others]]. In his [[Chris's Plea to Clyde Cash|plea]] to Clyde, his advice after the suicide of Clyde's brother [[Ryan Cash]] was "find yourself a girlfriend." He asks for ED to [[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007|please understand]] him, because he is an "innocent victim of misunderstanding" — he wants empathy from others, but he can't return the favor. Chris primarily sees other people in terms of what they can provide for him; when accused of overstepping his bounds or other wrongdoing, he has no concept of [[Chris and remorse|remorse or apology]] except as something he must do to continue receiving favors. When forced to apologize, he makes insincere apologies followed immediately by further demands.

When Chris does attempt empathy, it's only when he already sees himself in the person, no matter how big the stretch is. This habit shows up in Chris's justifications for his votes. He voted for [[Barack Obama]] because he was a victim of discrimination – equating Obama's struggle with racism to his own struggle with autistic persecution. He mainly voted for [[Hillary Clinton]] because she was a woman – which Chris has identified as since 2014. He never looked at either candidate's platforms or voted based on actual issues, just based on who he can "see" himself in.

=====Social awareness and boundaries=====
[[Image:Chris holding sign.jpg|thumb|right|The [[attraction sign]] in action. Struggling with social norms and approaching people is a sign of autism.]]

Chris struggles with social approach. He believed that holding up a literal [[sign]] with his requirements for an eligible sweetheart was a socially acceptable way to meet people. He would [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer|pace around]] public places aimlessly, and he has difficulty initiating conversations. He sometimes starts off the convo with botched attempts at pickup lines, and [[random-access humor]]. Nowadays, much of his social approach takes the form of meet-and-greet photo ops at [[conventions]] or elsewhere, though he still screws it up.

Chris doesn't understand the concept of boundaries, whether physical or verbal. He kissed people he met seconds ago at [[TooManyGames]]. He was quite handsy with [[Megan]], [[Kacey]], and [[Emily]], and he buried his face in [[Catherine]]'s breasts. He regularly refers to his [[Mary Lee Walsh|superiors]] by their first name, sometimes even by [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford|pet names]] they don't even use. He doesn't seem to understand that different relationships call for different sets of social norms.

Chris lacks a conversational filter. He calls this [[Honest Content|honesty]]; normal people call it social dysfunction. Without provocation, he will tell you about his [[heterochromia|pinkeye]], his [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]], his autism itself, and how he is a [[virgin with rage]]. Only when his [[Barbara|mother]] told him to knock it off did he actually give up telling everyone he was a virgin.<ref>[[Chris-Chan (CWCipedia)#Chris in Person (From THEIR Point of View)]]</ref> He mostly takes interest in himself while talking, only occasionally taking interest in his conversational partner.

All of the above could be explained by Chris's lack of social awareness. One notable instance of this, as revealed in the [[autism papers]], was when two [[Chris and Race#Black_people|black]] ladies were speaking to Chris about his love quest, when Chris politely told them that they could not be his girlfriend because they were not white. Based on the report of the examiner, Chris believed he was merely informing the ladies as to his prerequisites for a potential sweetheart while oblivious to the fact he was being racially insensitive.<ref>[[Autism_papers#IDENTIFYING_STATEMENT:]]</ref>

====2: Nonverbal communication====
[[Image:0695-AnnaBD9.JPG|thumb|right|Awkward body language, as Chris displays here, is a common trait of autism.]]
[[File:0419-ChristianIs17-14.jpg|thumb|right|Demonstrating poor eye contact.]]

Chris can't show emotions well with facial expressions and body language. See [[CWC only accepts IN-PERSON FEMALE Encounters|his statement to the women of the world]] if you enjoy Chris appearing in your dreams. His inability to display emotions on his face has been called a "[[The Creepy Stare|dead fish expression]]" (though [[Barb]] displays a similar stare). When he does attempt to have an expression, it looks very cartoonish, possibly because he copied it from [[My Little Pony|actual cartoons]]. Also, notice his inconsistent eye contact in his [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]] news interview. He typically speaks in a monotone, and his attempts to sound expressive (see [[CWC's Message for Ivy]]) come off as creepy and unnatural. His incompetency with emotional display extends to his [[art]] and comics as well. He has a hard time displaying emotion on his characters' faces, and has even added emoticons :) to the speech bubbles to make up for his lack of ability to communicate through his art and writing alone.

Chris also has very poor [[Facial blindness|facial and vocal recognition skills]]. [[Julie]] was a 13-year-old boy using an obvious falsetto and Chris fell for it. In [[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3|one chat]], the boy made no attempt to disguise his voice and Chris was none the wiser, disclosing personal sexual details. Two images of different people were used to represent [[Blanca Weiss]], and Chris didn't notice. In an [[Vanessa AIM Chat 9|AIM Chat]] with [[Vanessa Hudgens]], she sent him a link to pictures of Megan Fox, and Chris complimented her on them, even though the two don't even have the same skin color. He didn't realize that [[Emily]] and [[Kim Wilson|Kim]] were the same person, even though their voices and laughs were obviously identical. Chris is inconsistent with his self-portraits and drawings of other people, relying more on color schemes and cosmetics (hair, clothing choices, etc.) than on facial features to distinguish them apart. In his attempt at a [[Barack Obama#White House gag|political cartoon]], he relies on labels and arrows to distinguish the characters instead of exaggerating their facial features like mainstream political cartoonists. He also depicts Obama in a traditional African cap he seldom wears.

[[Image:0485-CWC18th16.jpg|thumb|left|Chris has had very little social interaction since high school. This is one of the few pictures of him with his [[gal pals]], and it only shows him from behind.]]

====3: Interpersonal relationships====
Chris's social dysfunction has caused him trouble with developing and maintaining relationships – platonic or romantic. Many non-autistics have the same problem, but Chris is particularly inept at socializing.

Chris's earliest friend, [[Sarah Hammer]], was more of a bully than a friend; she locked him in the crawlspace of her house, and tried convincing him to eat the berries of a honeysuckle, which can induce [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|diarrhea]]. His high school [[Gal-Pals]] were "hired help": Bob and the principal arranged a deal where they were paid to hang out with Chris. He rarely hung out with them outside school hours, except on his [[My big 18th party|18th birthday]] and at [[prom]].

Chris has had very few friends as an adult. He loses friends regularly, manages to get [[banned]] from his favorite hangouts, and has no contact with any of his beloved high school Gal-Pals. He did have a circle of [[Pokémon League friends|adult friends who played Pokémon with him]], but he lost contact with them once he switched his focus to [[imaginary friends]] and online [[enablers]] after the [[Idea Guys]] managed to destroy what little remaining grip on [[reality]] Chris had.

Despite this, Chris's social life was robust compared to his love life. Chris is in his forties, and he hasn't had a serious romantic relationship or any consensual contact with the opposite sex (aside from a [[Mia Hamm|prostitute]] and [[Affair with Mother|his own mother]], though whether the latter was completely consensual remains questionable), or the [[bisexual|same sex]] for that matter. His foray into [[Dating profiles|online dating]] was a failure, and every one of his [[sweethearts]] was either [[Megan|just a friend]] or a troll. He viewed his desperate search as a [[Love Quest]] – a saga that began on his 21st birthday, and only ended when he got into a [[polyamorous marriage]] with his OCs.

Chris is also estranged from his family outside his parents. Chris's half-brother [[Cole Smithey]] has blocked him on social media. He has little contact with his other half brother [[David Alan Chandler|David]], and knows even less of his half-sister [[Carol Chandler|Carol]].

As with many autistics, Chris does manage to have good relationships with animals, whether [[Patti|real]] or [[Sonichu (species)|fake]]. Animals are more direct and don't have as complex of social rituals as humans. Animals also serve as a "social lubricant" for people on the spectrum. Anyone who knows anything about Temple Grandin can back this up.

===B: Chris's restricted and repetitive behaviors===
To receive an autism diagnosis, the DSM-5 requires restricted and repetitive behaviors [https://archive.ph/YxSOM in at least two of the following four categories.] Chris meets all of them; examples are given below:

====1: Movements and speech====
[[Image:KillThatHexBawx.jpg|thumb|Chris refers to the [[Xbox]] as the "HEXbox," showing both his [[brand loyalty]] and vocabulary of made-up words.|250px]]

Chris often exhibits echolalia, which means he constantly repeats phrases from his favorite television shows, movies and video games, regardless of whether they fit the current situation. In some instances, he calls this [[Random-access humor|"humor"]]. He tends to use solipsistic neologisms; that is, he creates new words that only he himself understands and expects other people to comprehend them. He uses the same terms and [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor|exact]] [[boyfriend-free girl|phrases]] [[sweetheart from the ground-up|frequently]]. Many articles on this very wiki have been written to explain the resulting [[CWC-isms]].

Autism is also linked to [[speech impediment]]s. Chris has trouble with articulation, and often slurs words together like "[[ED|Essaikapeeia Dramakka Payzh]]" and "[[Chris|Krishnwessonchanler]]." He frequently stutters, clutters his words, and speaks in a higher-pitched register.

Chris's unusual [[mannerisms]] are another sign. He rocks back and forth (dubbed "The Autistic Shuffle"), especially when [[stress]]ed. He uses the same gestures repeatedly, such as his [[stress sigh]], [[The Claw of Fail]], and the infamous [[Dramatic Glasses Removal]]. He feels the need to refer to people by their full names, plainly visible when he talks about himself, [[Clyde Cash]], or [[Adam Stackhouse]].

An overlooked but crucial characteristic affecting all of Chris's physical activity is his display of {{w|hypotonia}}, which refers to a distinct lack of muscle tone — in biological terms referring to tension rather than the colloquial use to describe muscle strength (although raw physical strength is also affected by it) — which affects motor skills as well as stamina. Chris is not only very clumsy, he shows abnormally low muscle strength and gets tired quickly even by [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|simply shuffling around for a couple of minutes]] — which cannot be entirely explained by his lack of physical exercise. Whenever Chris is shown sitting, [[Charlottesville Fashion Square#Chris captured on video|he is spread around like a rag doll]], [[:File:0782-CWCSpread.JPG|hanging limply]] — as his muscles cannot support his entire body properly.

[[Image:Please,_Donate_(720p).mp400001.png|thumb|left|250px|Chris has spent the majority of his adult life in his bedroom.]]

====2: Insistence on sameness====
One of the biggest symptoms of autism Chris displays is his fear of and resistance to change, well beyond the point that it could be even related to his autism. Chris is reluctant to get or even look for a job as he has only worked [[Chris's resume|four months in his entire life]], never came close to moving out [[Affair with Mother|until he was absolutely forced to]], has a very hard time selling or giving up his toys or shirts, has never stuck to a [[Chris and health|diet and exercise program]], [[Attraction Sign|doesn't try new ways to attract women]], and has a very hard time coping with his banishment from his favorite [[the GAMe PLACe|hangout spots]]. His proven tendencies to avoid responsibilities and self-improvement show that he has a very hard time moving on from his childhood lifestyle (where he had no obligations other than school), or simply fears failure of all types.

Chris thinks in absolutes and in terms of clearly defined steps in order to do something. He thinks there must be sex on or by the [[third date]]. He describes his sadness in terms of his '[[heart level]]' and briefly mentioned a [[Scale of Respect]]. He feels that if he just knows the correct steps to getting a [[sweetheart]], he will be able to find one easily. His [[dating education|crash-course in dating]] and [[Dating|suggestions to Blanca]] assume that a relationship should follow a rigidly predetermined progression instead of a natural flow. In an [[Jackie E-mails 23|exchange of e-mails with Jackie]], Chris responded to her frank descriptions of his habits and lifestyle by saying she had exceeded the "Hurtful Truth Level"; while he knows he should be appreciative of hearing the truth about himself, this was the only way he could wrap his brain around the abstract idea enough to be able to tell her he thought she'd gone too far.

Some autistic people follow rules so strictly that it's bordering OCD. Chris however, has the opposite problem. He lived in a [[14 Branchland Court|filthy, unorganized house for many years,]] makes comics with a very inconsistent plot, wears the same [[shirt]] for days at a time, and disobeys the [[Chris and the Law|law]] when it inconveniences him.

[[Image:0064-ChristianWSonic.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Autistics generally have "special interests." These interests can range from familiar subjects popular with most people, to specialised interests and areas of higher study, from elevators to astrophysics, or in Chris's case, Sonic the Hedgehog.]]

====3: Fixations and special interests====
Chris has an extremely narrow range of interests. He seems to only give a damn about video games, cartoons, prowling for his next [[sweetheart]], his initials, and [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]], so much to the point where he practically places [[Sonichu (character)|him]] somewhere in everything he creates. He often wishes to [[dating|combine]] two [[LittleBigPlanet#First Date Level|interests]].

Unnatural relationships with inanimate objects are also a sign of autism; Chris has evident obsessions with his [[medallion]], his game consoles, and any number of other items that clutter up his [[Chris's room|room]]. Since autistics have difficulty maintaining relationships with people, they often end up becoming emotionally dependent on objects, though this symptom is seen much more in autistic children.

Although he does not demonstrate any [[Honor roll|competency]] with them, Chris has a fixation on numbers and statistics that would generally be irrelevant to others. He describes measures in concrete terms (e.g. "5 mies[sic] from the city"<ref>http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_0/Page_2</ref> instead of "outside the city"), and has a particular obsession with times and dates, timestamping nearly every scene in the comic and giving his characters birthdays and middle names that have no relevance to the plot (unless it becomes convenient to "[[pedofork|age up]]" the characters). Needless to say, Chris's tendency to blurt out exact dates and times (assuming he's not talking out of his ass) has made the job of [[CWChronology|CWCki chronologists]] much easier. On the other hand, his haphazard treatment of dates and times in the comic has led to countless [[Continuity in the Sonichu comics#Chronology|continuity errors]].

Chris's fixations also manifest as [[brand loyalty]]. Chris has been loyal to Nintendo, Sega and Sony, to the exclusion of [[HEXbox|Microsoft]]. He's loyal to [[McDonald's]] and dislikes [[Burger King]]. He felt that [[Harry Potter]] was a threat to [[Pokemon]]. His brand loyalty went beyond simple preferences and extended to actual obsessions and hatreds. He'd hype up [[Axe]] and [[Walmart]] in videos. He'd blindly trust advertisements and even include ads of his own in his comics.

Chris's [[transgender]] identity is yet another fixation. According to psychologist Ken Zucker, trans folks are more likely to be autistic than the general population. The link is caused by, among other traits, autistics' tendency to fixate on issues (in this case, gender). Many autistic males (including Chris) also have qualities that can be considered effeminate, such as passiveness. Since they have less social awareness, they may behave in ways that can be considered atypical for either sex and display less regard for gender roles. Chris and many other autistics perceive their quirks as being "female in a male body" or vice versa, and assume that they will fit in better as their desired sex.

His fixation showed itself strongly when Sega changed [[Sonic]]'s arms from tan to [[Sonic Boom protests|blue]]. Chris launched a crusade that ended with him [[26 December 2014|macing an innocent GameStop employee]]; a criminal offense launched entirely by a minor change to a fictional character who happens to be Chris's icon.

====4: Sensory processing====
[[Image:Wrist Warmer.jpg|thumb|left|Chris wearing a wrist warmer with his medallion to reduce sensory discomfort from its chain. Differences in how the body processes sensory stimuli are a common characteristic of autism.]]

Autism affects how the brain interprets the senses. Chris is often either hypo- or hypersensitive to sensory stimulation. Chris often wears his accessories and medallions over top his clothing to avoid skin contact with metals and plastics. This is evident in the way in which Chris wears his watch over the cuff of his sleeve and wraps his medallion through the collar of his shirt.<ref>[[:File:0793-CWCIs24-2.jpg]]</ref> Most obvious however is his [[Fashion#Wrist_warmer|wrist warmer]] which he places on the chain of his medallion. Chris has stated that "[...] it is a part of my necklace; it's a "Wilson" wrist-warmer I use to cover the discomfort of the number of Links back there."<ref>Email from Chris posted in old PVCC thread 162</ref> Loud sounds also bother Chris. He skipped pep rallies in high school,<ref>[[August 2013 Facebook Posts#Actual friendships]]</ref> and has expressed hesitation about visiting bars because of the noise. He is also likely to have taste-related sensory issues, given that he has a [[Chris and nutrition|bland and unhealthy diet]] as well as a [[Pickle#Pickled cucumbers|hatred for pickles]] (a strong-tasting food), which long predates the term's infamous usage to refer to male genitalia.

Sensory dysfunction isn't limited to the five external senses – it extends to internal, "hidden senses" such as balance, body position, [[Obesity|hunger]], thirst, [[biological clock|time]], [[pickles|gag reflex]], and internal body pressure (such as when one has to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the facilities]]).

==Severity of Chris's autism==
[[Image:CWCBitchesDunno.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris will be quick to tell you about it, though.]]

Informally, autism may be subdivided into separate classifications based on the intelligence and degree of function the autistic individual possesses; for a general idea, this crude scale could have levels of high-functioning, medium-functioning, and low-functioning. Chris has latched onto this concept and will frequently qualify his condition, saying he has '''high-functioning autism''', or '''HFA'''. Generally, HFA is loosely defined as; the ability to live in the mainstream world as opposed to being institutionalized, having near-normal comprehension, demonstrating fluent speech, and possessing average or above-average intellect. This presents Christian with an easy scapegoat and alibi: he cannot be blamed for his own failures because he has autism, but he does not accept treatment or advice for his "medium" or "low" level autistic traits because he's ''high-functioning'' and therefore, nearly normal. Chris believes he can do much more than any low-functioning autistic could, even as he lived with [[Barbara Chandler|his mother]] well into his thirties, has never had a real girlfriend or held a steady job, and [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|soils his pants]] on a semi-regular basis.<ref>[[Mumble 3]]</ref>

[[Trolls]] have often noted that the "high-functioning" qualifier is '''not''' a clinical diagnosis and is '''not''' recognized by the {{w|DSM-IV|DSM-IV-TR}} or the {{w|ICD-10}}. This usually goes hand-in-hand with questioning the severity and/or diagnosis of Chris's impairment, if not outright calling him a [[List of Chris's lies|liar]]. However, the Chandlers didn't make the "HFA" label up, and compared to autistics who can barely speak and just walk in circles all day, Chris is relatively close to neurotypical; he can talk, drive, write and draw, [[Speech impediment|even if]] [[Chris and art|he's not]] [[Son-Chu#Distracted driving|the best]] [[Chris and writing|at these things]]. A major argument against the HFA label is that Chris himself allegedly stopped speaking at the age of one and didn't speak again until he was seven. This is a major language delay, and he would have been considered low-functioning at the time. This is especially relevant since Chris was diagnosed in the eighties, and HFA/Asperger's was only recognized in the English-speaking world in the 1990s. At the time of his diagnosis, being autistic required at least a delay in speech acquisition, if not complete muteness.

The newer {{w|DSM-5}} ''does'' split autism into three different levels of severity based on the amount of support needed. The new term for "High-Functioning Autism" is "Autism Spectrum Disorder [[Vidya|Level 1]]", often subtitled 'Requiring support'. Chris is most likely on the lower functioning end of Level 1, though his developmental delays in early childhood, significant difficulties navigating social situations and stunted life skills could still put him on the cusp of Level 2, meaning 'Requiring substantial support'.

Semantics aside, though, it's clear that Chris is far from normally-functioning. Only an [[Autism papers|updated]] [[28 October 2011#Arraignment, plea bargain, and sentencing|psychological profile]] would really provide insight into the complex and controversial mixture of autism and mental illness that is present within Christian.

==Onset and diagnosis of Chris's autism==
{{quote|No one GIVES A SHIT that you are autistic, they NEVER DID.|[[Jackie E-mails 23|Jackie]], telling Chris something he'll flat out ignore.}}
[[Image:SchuComic10P09.jpg|thumb|Now GodBearJesus can't get him to shut up.]]

Chris's version of how he developed autism is best explained in the [[Song of Christian]] video. There he explains how a [[Abusive babysitter|babysitter]] locked him in a room filled with toys at around age 1 1/2. After crying for hours, he emerged from the room unable to talk; as Chris himself puts it, "[[Chris and religion|God]] put the mute button on me."<ref>[[Song of Christian#The actual poem]]</ref> (This implies that Chris could talk before this incident, which directly contradicts Chris's own parents stating that he never spoke until around the age of seven.) Most specialists claim that these symptoms of autism begin to show around that age anyway,<ref>{{w|Autism#Characteristics|Wikipedia: Characteristics of autism}}</ref> so even if the events of the story happened, the babysitter didn't cause the autism. It is far more likely that Chris's parents simply looked for anyone to blame for Chris's sudden loss of language development, even a random babysitter. Notably, Chris has diverged from this story before, having claimed at least once that he was intentionally "injected" with autism by doctors when he was a child as if that were even possible. Nevertheless, it speaks volumes on the [[List of Chris's lies|veracity]] of the former account if he can't even keep his story straight, not to mention that Chris probably [[Naïve|has little idea on the causes of autism]] anyway.

As for how Chris ''actually'' became autistic, studies have shown that there is a [https://archive.is/PROpt positive correlation between the age of the mother and the risk of autism]. Given that [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] was 40 years old when she gave birth to Chris, this is a likely explanation.

It is also worth noting that [[Bob]] was an engineer, and studies have found higher autism rates among children of engineers (and other technical occupations).<ref>https://archive.is/BHfBO</ref> Bob's granddaughter [[Savannah]] is also autistic.

It is currently unclear how Chris came to be considered as "autistic," although Chris has claimed that his parents possess official documentation about this in a safe. When pressed to release this information, he provided a [[autism papers|2004 psychiatric evaluation]] that states Chris was diagnosed with autism when he was "around age five or six." However, there's no way to be sure if the evaluator simply wrote down Chris's responses to his questions or independently verified them. (For example, Chris might not remember his exact age when he was diagnosed, but you'd think his medical records could be more precise than "five or six.") By the time of the Chandlers' legal battle with Greene County, Chris's autism seemed to have become a universally accepted fact, but the details of how, when, and where Chris was diagnosed remain a mystery.

When recounting his childhood, Chris usually skips straight from the "evil babysitter" incident to age seven, so we know very little about what (if any) treatment he received during this crucial period of development. In a [[CWCipedia]] [[mailbag]], Chris claims that when he was young, his parents were told he would never be able to read, write or function on a normal level. He and his doctors have now upgraded his condition to "high-functioning," but apparently his incredibly abysmal upbringing has actually allowed it to progress to mid-functioning at best.

In his "Song of Christian" video, he explains that his mother took him to the toy department and coaxed him to read aloud the names of Go-Bots, and later [[Transformers]]. Chris says he began speaking again when he was seven – that is, in [[1989]], when the Transformers line was on its last legs and the Go-Bots line had long since vanished. This would seem to indicate that this form of "therapy" had to have gone on for several years before producing any results.

==Persecution==
Chris attended [[Greene County Primary School]], apparently without incident, from age 5 until age 9. Problems arose for him in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], where he alleges that the faculty wanted to remove him from mainstream classrooms and send him to what he calls an institution. He also claims that the teachers at the school held him down and recorded his screams. Chris frequently cites this as evidence that the school was senselessly cruel towards him, for no reason apparent to him except an innate fear and distrust of autistic people. More probable, given Chris's ongoing behavioral issues, is that he threw a temper tantrum so big it forced the faculty to physically restrain him while refusing to restrain himself. There's no way to know if Greene Elementary treated Chris unfairly, but the incident does suspiciously resemble Chris's [[arrest]] in July 2005. The Chandlers sued to prevent the school board from removing Chris from mainstream education before ultimately relocating to Chesterfield County to continue Chris's mainstreaming there.

Chris frequently brings up that the reason people used to [[Kick the Autistic|be cruel to him]] in his childhood was because "they did not understand Autism." In the [[1980s]]. When autism had been known for around 40 years. When asked about why they did not understand, Chris delivers his canned response of "I do not know."

There's no way to know how much of Chris's attitude about the Greene County crisis is based on his personal recollections or what he was later told by his parents, who themselves seem unusually paranoid about the county's vendetta against their family. However, the result of the incident is clear: Chris emerged from adolescence firmly believing that many people not only misunderstand autistic people but hate and fear them. He seems to believe this prejudice is based not on a person's actions (e.g. throwing fits and irrationally screaming) but on a person's mere identification as autistic, regardless of function. Given Chris's fear of low-functioning autistics, he may in fact think this prejudice is [[Chris and hypocrisy|perfectly justified]], but wrongfully targeted at a high-functioning individual. Of course, in Chris's mind, he may as well be the only high-functioning autistic in the Universe, so he is the one and only innocent victim in "everyone's favorite game, [[Kick the Autistic]]."

Chris's tactful and sensitive comments on a news story about a woman with [[Asperger syndrome]] being raped revealed that he believes the media, like the rest of the world, has a bias against autism similar to "{{w|Missing white woman syndrome|Missing White Woman Syndrome}}," and that the story wouldn't have been reported if the victim was a woman with "proper" autism.

==Chris's misconceptions about autism==
It's not clear that Chris has any understanding of what, precisely, autism is, except that a) he has it, b) it's a bad thing, and c) [[Chris and his ego|he's a brave little boy for living with it]]. His song "[[A-U-T-I-S-M]]" sums up his attitudes about the disorder:

{{quote|A-U-T-I-S-M: what does it mean? Silence and friends unseen! A few brains as well: that is autism! And that makes us seem special to you!|Chris, attempting to spell out autism in more ways than one}}

To Chris, that's all it is — a condition that makes you a bit smarter than normal human beings and mysteriously makes people not want to be your friend.

[[File:Mii.jpg|thumb|right|Chris's personification of autism for beating up in ''Super Smash Bros.'']]

Chris also seems to only be aware of the symptoms of autism that fit in with his odd, pseudo-Bohemian lifestyle. Asexuality is very common in autistic people; this is because any form of romance or sex may be too intimate for an autistic mind to cope with. This completely contradicts Chris's "[[Love Quest]]" and suggests that he is actually trying to compensate for his inability to feel true sexual attraction, even if that means becoming a genuinely disturbing pervert. His tone-deafness for singing is fairly unusual for an autistic individual as well – autistic people tend to have stronger pitch perception, and they are more likely to have perfect pitch than the general population.

Chris [[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|considers himself to have "Helped cultivate the First Generation of Autistic People,"]] suggesting that he believes [[Chris and his ego|he is a prevalent figure in the autistic community.]].

In a [[May 2010]] [[Some Favored Comedians|video]], he stated that our society is spending so much time on the Internet that ''everyone'' is becoming autistic.<ref>[[Toucher and Rich Segment#Chris's Response|Chris responds to Toucher and Rich, May 2009]]</ref><ref>[[Some Favored Comedians]]</ref> This further proves that people with little to no social contact shouldn't attempt social commentary. That, and Chris has no fucking clue what his own disorder is actually ''like''. In [[November 2010]], he tried to use this excuse to guilt trip [[Jackie]] into being sorry for yelling at him, which worked as well as you'd expect.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 23]]</ref>

Chris's failure to understand the symptoms of autism may well explain some of his odd behaviors. Due to lack of social activity and poor theory of mind, Chris doesn't seem to realize that his behaviors are what they are, as best demonstrated by his belief that [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|it is normal for an adult to shit themselves]]. Chris does not recognize the differences between himself and others, and this applies to the differences between himself and neurotypicals - and, seeing no differences, he believes his autism to have been thoroughly conquered, even while embodying every single trait of it.

===Chris on the causes of autism===
There's a broad scientific consensus that autism largely arises from genetic factors. Chris's own case is consistent with the theory that children born to older parents are at greater risk of developing autism.<ref>https://archive.ph/ckSNI</ref> Bob and Barb were 54 and 40, respectively, when Chris was conceived.

Chris's own expressed views on the root causes of autism are all over the map. He's espoused a few different theories at different times and in different situations. His oldest theory, dating back to the [[Song of Christian]] in the late 1990s, is that the [[abusive babysitter]] was responsible for his condition. In [[Mumble 3|his arguments with]] [[Clyde Cash]] in early 2009, he said that "scientifically speaking, [autism] has possibly come from a drug, or otherwise it may possibly be genetic," and that the babysitter incident merely "brought out the, uh, curse that was buried within me."

When explaining his condition to [[Father Call|Matt Devoria]] late in the fall of 2009, Chris insisted that autism has no genetic factors. In that instance, however he had an obvious agenda. He hoped to convince Matt that any children he fathered with Matt's daughter [[Kacey]] wouldn't wind up inheriting his condition; because of this, it's difficult to say exactly how sincere he happened to be at that moment.

To muddle the issue even ''further'', in [[Mailbag 12]], Chris blamed the cause of autism on a shot "the doctor's [sic] optionally give to the child after birth," apparently in reference to the highly disputed {{w|MMR vaccine controversy|urban myth}} alleging that childhood vaccinations lead to autism. It's not likely that Chris even has that much of an awareness of the facts and assertions of said myth, and was probably looking for a throwaway excuse to deny any hereditary factors.

In a [[Some Favored Comedians|video]] in 2010, Chris said the Internet made people autistic, likely confusing the hyperbolic claim often made jokingly to that effect with fact. Ironically, Chris's excessive use of the Internet in place of human interaction has probably done more to exacerbate his symptoms than almost anything else.

In his [[Autism Tutorial Part 1|Autism Tutorial]] from early 2011, Chris slewed back toward a more mainstream view, discussing the genetic factors behind autism and complaining about how his parents conceived him late in life. He also, however, warned viewers that smoking, drinking, or exposure to car exhaust could cause dangerous genetic damage that might result in autistic children.

===Chris versus Asperger syndrome===
{{see also|Asperger syndrome}}

Chris is easily outraged by any attempt to associate or confuse autism, high-functioning or otherwise, with Asperger syndrome, a similar condition now considered by many experts to overlap with HFA on the autistic spectrum. In fact, Asperger syndrome was eliminated and replaced with "autism spectrum disorder, level 1" in the new DSM-V, making both the condition and "high-functioning autism" one and the same.<ref>https://archive.is/TPWcu</ref>) At times, Chris has stated that he dislikes Asperger syndrome because sufferers of the disorder supposedly steal sympathy away from autism awareness. He has also claimed that the name is too close to "ass burger" or "ass booger" for his taste.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> In the early days of the [[CWCipedia]] [[Mailbag]], asking Chris about Asperger syndrome was the most effective way to troll him; this culminated in the creation of [[Asperchu]].

In the present, Chris simply hates Asperger syndrome because it reminds him of how angry he got the last time someone brought it up — in other words, a completely unjustifiable opinion. Chris has declared himself "close-minded" on the subject, dismissing all scientific opinion contrary to his own, and angrily refuses to be convinced that he does not occupy a more favorable (exactly what that means depends on whether Chris is looking for pity or adulation at the time) tier of the spectrum.

===Chris on Neurotypicality===



Chris also has little understanding of the concept of neurotypicality, the state of lacking any kind of neurologically-atypical traits. Some people on the autism spectrum, especially those with [[Asperger syndrome|Aspergers]], are deemed to be of above-average intelligence or possess a special talent in another field like music or art. Chris has taken that to mean that he himself must also be in that same group of autistics, where he is much smarter than the average person. This is especially prevalent during the [[Dimensional Merge]] era, where he refers to non-believers as "neurotypically hindered."

===Alternate phrasing===
{{quote|I have a dementia problem that makes me fall mentally blank|Chris substituting dementia for autism<ref name=doopietweet>[[April 2017 tweets#Doopie defends Chris]]</ref>}}
Chris sometimes uses alternative ways to describe his autism, such as when he hears a new phrase - inapplicable as it may be - and tries to shoehorn it into use.

This was seen during [[April 2017]], when Chris attended care-giving classes in order to help out his [[mother]] around the house. During the classes, Chris learned of the term "dementia", mistakenly believing it to be an umbrella term for mental conditions in general.<ref>[[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04272017]]</ref> Chris applied the term to himself, in reference to his autism disorder, in video<ref>[[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04192017 - The Shirt]]</ref> and on [[Twitter]]<ref name=doopietweet></ref> mid-month. Chris ceased misusing the word afterwords.

More absurdly, when Chris learned of the fictional power "Avatar State" from the animated series ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', he also tried applying it towards his autism disorder. In a tweet from [[January 2021]], he claimed that his "zombie and robot-like state" (such as when he was photographed at [[The GAMe PLACe]]) is an advanced form of the Avatar State.<ref>[[January 2021 social media posts#Successful heavy meditate hour]]</ref>

==Chris on autism education==
Chris is a firm believer in mainstream education for children with autism, a trait he doubtlessly picked up from his parents, who went to [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School|incredible lengths]] to keep him in mainstream classrooms throughout his school years. He had special education classes in addition to his mainstreaming - [[coping]] skills classes during both middle and high school.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails]]</ref>

[[Mailbag 12|When asked for his advice on how to raise an autistic child]], Chris replied, "...Most Importantly, MAINSTREAM; let your child be free to communicate and associate with the Normal Society. Special Education is okay, but that will not do in the longest run." Later, [[Mailbag 15|for advice on how "to succeed despite being afflicted with Asperger's"]], Chris's only response was, "My advice is to Mainstream the child."

During a [[04232010 - Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless|video from April 2010]], Chris read off a lengthy printout of autism-related information. After quoting a passage about how the education of autistic children should be undertaken by trained professionals in specialized settings, Chris offered his own opinion.

{{quote|As for me though, I highly recommend mainstreaming, lettin' 'em go though normal life. I mean yeah, give 'em the special treatment while they're young... but when you get 'em in elementary or middle school... or high school, mainstream is the way to go.|Chris, [[04232010 - Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless|Autism Awareness & Men Should NEVER be Topless]]}}

In short, Chris believes that the approach that produced the man as we know him today (i.e. ignoring the problem and doing nothing to help it) is the best possible way to raise and educate children with autism.

==Autism cured?==
[[Image:454-CWCsPossibleFuture.JPG|thumb|Autism appears to be in Chris's future...]]

Chris's greatest dream is that his autism might one day be cured (although [[Pixelated PS3|in 2006]] he would have unhesitatingly sacrificed such a cure in order to obtain a [[PlayStation 3]]). There are instances of children inexplicably recovering from the symptoms, but there is no known cure for autism that can simply be applied to everyone like Chris's "[[Sonichu 10|homo vaccine]]." Imagine the surprise of the mental health community, then, when Chris revealed in [[March 2009]] that he had overcome his autism once and for all:<ref>[[Sarah May Skype Logs#Chris is over his autism]]</ref>

:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' I'm not going to blame it on my autism; I have realized that I am over that now.
:'''Sarah May:''' Over what?
:'''Sarah May:''' Over your autism?
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' yes
:'''Sarah May:''' . . .
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' anyway, what is it that you want to do?
:'''Sarah May:''' Christian
:'''Sarah May:''' Are you serious?
:'''Sarah May:''' Autism is not influenza
:'''Sarah May:''' You don't 'get over it'
:'''Christopher C.W.C.:''' I've broken out of my autistic shell, and I am better able to socialize in public, with the past practices online.

Chris claimed during the same chat that he may not be making sense due to a virus, easily allowing for him to retract this. Fortunately, Chris has discovered that [[stress]] is a more socially popular scapegoat for his personal shortcomings. Of course, people learn to manage stress, but what do you expect?

As of [[May 2009]], Chris seemed to have regained his autism and was back to blaming it for all his problems, seemingly believing that autism is as easy to shake/regain as the common flu. However, [[November 2009]] saw Chris again claiming to have been miraculously cured, as stated at the end of part 2 of his [[Sonichu Powerpoint]] presentations, where he described himself as a "high-functioning autistic ''recovered''." A [[December 2009|month later]], Chris again backpedaled; in response to ED's claim he was "suffering" from autism, he [[Chris chan (CWCipedia)|agreed]] that "''I still am for real.''"

Chris's flip-flopping self-diagnosis simply illustrates his misunderstanding of his problems. Since autism is his scapegoat for when he fucks up, to him that's really all it is — a disease that makes people fuck up all the time. Therefore, when he fails, he has a bad case of autism, and when everything is going well (such as when he believes he has a girlfriend), he thinks the autism has gone away. What Chris really wants, then, is not a cure for autism but a life in which nothing happens that he would need to blame on his autism; that is, a life in which he has a girlfriend and nobody criticizes him.

In June of 2016, he [[Announcement 06292016#Announcement 06292016-2|claimed to have cured his autism]] using [[Subliminal Frequency Hypnosis|binaural beats]]. He stated that the track made him think clearer and [[Chris and socialization|interact better with others]]. However, he has shown no improvement in the quality of his recent videos, and he would continue to make autism-related content in the future.

==Things Chris has not blamed on his autism==
[[Image:Tumbleweed.gif|What did you expect?]]

==Chris and other autistics==
===Chris on other autistics===
{{Dated}}
Listening to Chris go on about "us TRUE and HONEST autistics," you might think he has some kind of misplaced sense of autistic solidarity. But this would merely be dumb, and Chris-chan always shoots for both dumb and repugnant, so the reality is that he doesn't give a shit about anyone's autism but his own.

Disgustingly, but perhaps not surprisingly, Chris detests [[Slow-in-the-minds|low-functioning autistics]] in the [[Chris and hypocrisy|exact manner]] that he fears normal people will detest him. In [[Mailbag 25#High functioning babble|Mailbag 25]], he compares those with low-functioning autism with those who suffer from severe retardation or severe brain damage, thinking that they would have their arms linked together, have deformities, be confined to wheelchairs or crutches and drool and grunt and growl. He has also described them in extremely cruel and derisive terms, calling them "windows to hell"<ref>[[IRC (17 December 2008)]]</ref> and compared them to "zombies."<ref>[[Mailbag_5#In which Chris speaks ill of the handicapped|Mailbag 5]]</ref><ref>[[Mailbag_11#Elevators are important for the handicapped, so they don't want any phobias|Mailbag 11]]</ref><ref>[[Mailbag_25#High functioning babble|Mailbag 25]]</ref> The irony of his resentment toward "low-functioning" autistic people is that he has a severely autistic cousin, as revealed in the [[autism papers]]; this probably means that either Chris is not aware of his own relatives (very probable), or he has disowned members of his own family on the basis of them having the same medical condition that he has (albeit more severely affected by it), being the autism-Nazi he is.<ref>[[Asperger syndrome]]</ref> Furthermore, many much lower functioning autistics lead far more independent and fulfilling lives than Chris does.

He has once expressed a disdain for others with high-functioning autism, with HFA being one of the characteristics excluding a woman from being a [[attraction sign|potential sweetheart]]. He explains that he refuses to date a girl with any form of autism because he fears that seeing them will make him think about what he might be like if he had anything other than high-functioning autism.<ref>[[Chris_chan_(CWCipedia)#Chris_Chan_on_sticking_things_up_b.2A.2A.2Ahole.|Chris chan (CWCipedia)]]</ref> Meanwhile, he looks at people with [[Asperger Syndrome]], who are on roughly the same part of the spectrum as him, as dirty whores trying to somehow steal the limelight from "real" autistics (ironically, many feel this way about Chris).

Chris has only once included another autistic person in his comics. In emails with [[Sarah Jackson]], she told Chris that her sister was also a high-functioning autistic. When Sarah was included in [[Sonichu 9#Episode 19: Date Ed (Even Though the Idea Sounds Dated)|Episode 19]], so was her sister, [[Rita]]. When Rita was given dialogue after Sarah's [[death]], what she said made so little sense grammatically (even by [[Chris and writing|Chris's standards]]) that it is hard to see it as unintentional. It can, therefore, be speculated that Chris, thinking his own autism so much better than anyone else's, was attempting to make Rita seem as unintelligent as he assumes other autistics and people with mental disorders are.

His stance on autistic people would seem to shift a little in 2011, with him further believing himself to be a spokesperson for autism. Chris had attempted to educate people about autistic people in his ''LittleBigPlanet2'' series, the [[Autism Tutorial]]. The second part of the series had Chris decreeing that all autistic people should "man and woman up, respectively" in order to socialize with other people. In the extra part of the series, Chris slapped his representation of Hans Asperger out of the belief that he "selfishly put his ill name" with association with the disorder.

Chris has also claimed that his long-time friend [[Anna McLerran]] is autistic.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 20 October 2021]]</ref>

===Other autistics and Chris===
It should be noted that not all autistics are like Chris. Every person's experience with autism is different and every autistic person has a different combination of symptoms, social skills, sensory issues, empathy, special interests, routines, repetitive and restrictive behaviors and more.

A common analogy for this is that an autistic brain is a "melting pot" or "soup" of symptoms and behaviors <ref>https://autisticadvocacy.tumblr.com/post/113883336014/shades-of-slander</ref>. One person's soup might just be a bit salty, but still good, as they might show a few symptoms but still live a happy life. Another person's soup might taste horrible without seasoning, as they might need some support to function day-to-day.

It just so happens that Chris's soup is a disgusting mixture of sewage, [[April 16 Fetish Vids|Fanta]], rotten eggs and [[Semen|comeuppance]], as he has an extremely unfortunate combination of symptoms and behaviors.

==Autism Deferred Disposition==
{{main|Autism disorder deferred disposition}}
{{quote|and the court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the criminal conduct was caused by or had a direct and substantial relationship to the person's disorder or disability|Excerpt from §19.2-303.6<ref name=autismcard>https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/19.2-303.6/</ref>}}

In [[August 2021]], Chris was arrested for the charge of [[incest]] on his [[mother]]. During the court proceedings, his court-appointed lawyer, [[David Heilberg]], filed on 5 [[August 2022]] for §19.2-303.6<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 9 August 2022 Pleadings-Orders.png]]</ref> - deferred disposition based on Chris having autism, which the court granted. In effect, the law provides that if the court would be justified in a finding of guilt, and that autism had a direct cause in Chris's actions in being a motherfucker, that any further proceedings could instead be deferred and Chris put on probationary terms. While the following events are unclear, due to the case being sealed at Heilberg's request (although public records still revealed information), the court appears to have granted the deferred disposition motion.<ref name=autismcard></ref>

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, and self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture, if not one of the most well-documented people in history. His life has transitioned from a bizarre curiosity of the early internet to a grim case study in mental illness, enabling, and the consequences of total digital transparency.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the webcomic series, ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the [[Something Awful]] message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The tragedy of Chris-Chan reached a definitive breaking point in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his elderly mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and unfortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

Chris is a socially avoidant, autistic individual who has spent his life in a state of arrested development. Enabled by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the late [[Bob Chandler]], Chris has lived almost exclusively within the confines of his childhood home, surrounded by an ever-growing hoard of [[toys]] and [[video games]]. This protected existence allowed him to reject societal norms and avoid the "reality" that most adults face after graduation. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, [[Tugboat|government disability benefits]], and fan donations, often citing his autism as an insurmountable barrier to traditional work. (despite the fact that there are many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

[[File:CWC Cycle.png|thumb|right|A useful tool for predicting Christory.]]

[[File:SympathyForChris.png|thumb|left|An approximate graph which correlates knowledge about Chris to sympathy towards him.]]

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

[[Image:093-CWCtoon.jpg|thumb|right|100px|[[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris's hand-drawn representation of himself.]]]]

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> The only child to [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Ann Weston]], an office worker at Virginia Power, and [[Bob Chandler|Robert Franklin Chandler Jr.]] (1927-2011), an engineer for Western Electric and General Electric. The couple were 40 and 54 at the time of their son's birth. Little is known about Chris's toddler years; the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Despite this, Chris maintained a fondness for her, establishing a lifelong pattern of excusing the behavior of "pretty girls" while holding deep grudges against others for lesser slights.

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a special needs school. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

[[Image:CWC12.png|120px|thumb|Hard to believe, but this photo has not been airbrushed to perfection.]]

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his [[gal pal]]s and [[Joseph Herring|friend]] at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships set up by Chris's parents and the school principal). It was at this time that he first put his creative talents to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Despite Chris' claims of being an [[honor roll|honor student]], records suggest a more [[Manchester High Leaks|mediocre academic career]]. His [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]] was marked by a tearful outburst because the art award he wanted was given to someone else. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

{{Quote|You should stay in school, learn as you much. And try before you praise and despise. Never smoke! Never drink! Never worry about how others think of you when you do things... Don't be afraid to approach those of your opposite gender. And MOST IMPORTANTLY! PLEASE... STAY STRAIGHT. I leave you with those words, as I have shared with you on this, my twenty-fifth birthday, February 24th, 2007. I am "Christopher" Christian Weston Chandler. Live long, and shine on, in your very own unique way. War is never the answer; peace is. Never fight. Compliments will get you fuzzy-wuzzies. War gets you prickly-wicklies... Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.|Excerpts from [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE]], recorded shortly before his discovery by the Internet.}}

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==
{{main|2011|2012|2013|2014}}

{{quote|I Seriously Have Been [[Chris and English|PUBLICALY]] INVISIBLE for YEARS! The DAMN Trolling-Stupids have manipulated me; smeared my once good name through the [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|worst mud, muck, and bodily fluids]]; mentally and emotionally raped me continuously; made the worst imaginable reputation of me on the Internet, AND relayed THAT into OFFLINE LIFE in gossip, rumors, and presidentially grand Fucked-Up Campaigns!!!|[[June 2012 Facebook posts#Damn Michael Snyder|Chris vents on Facebook]] after years of trolling take their toll.}}

[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2011]] in one of the first [[Tomgirl Pictures]]. This photo was also taken near the time of his father's death.]]

[[File:Christran2.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2012]].]]

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

==Transgender Era==

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

[[File:Cwcjailphotomay3.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Chris in [[2022]], after being returned to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]]. This is what nine months behind bars does to [[Chris and sex#Incest|a motherfucker]].]]

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

[[File:Chris_mugshot_27_March_2023.png|thumb|left|150px|Chris in [[2023]], at the end of his stay in jail. Note [[Obesity|the weight loss]] compared to his first mugshot and Chris's improved mood compared to his second.]]

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

==Second Coming Era==

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.

{{quote|Behold, the Mistake of God!|[[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] on Chris.}}

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, and self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture, if not one of the most well-documented people in history. His life has transitioned from a bizarre curiosity of the early internet to a grim case study in mental illness, enabling, and the consequences of total digital transparency.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the infamous webcomic ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the [[Something Awful]] message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The tragedy of Chris-Chan reached a definitive breaking point in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his elderly mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and unfortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

Chris is a socially avoidant, autistic individual who has spent his life in a state of arrested development. Enabled by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the late [[Bob Chandler]], Chris has lived almost exclusively within the confines of his childhood home, surrounded by an ever-growing hoard of [[toys]] and [[video games]]. This protected existence allowed him to reject societal norms and avoid the "reality" that most adults face after graduation. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, [[Tugboat|government disability benefits]], and fan donations, often citing his autism as an insurmountable barrier to traditional work. (despite the fact that there are many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

[[File:SympathyForChris.png|thumb|left|An approximate graph which correlates knowledge about Chris to sympathy towards him.]]

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

[[Image:093-CWCtoon.jpg|thumb|right|100px|[[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris's hand-drawn representation of himself.]]]]

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> The only child to [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Ann Weston]], an office worker at Virginia Power, and [[Bob Chandler|Robert Franklin Chandler Jr.]] (1927-2011), an engineer for Western Electric and General Electric. The couple were 40 and 54 at the time of their son's birth. Little is known about Chris's toddler years; the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Despite this, Chris maintained a fondness for her, establishing a lifelong pattern of excusing the behavior of "pretty girls" while holding deep grudges against others for lesser slights.

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a special needs school. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

[[Image:CWC12.png|120px|thumb|Hard to believe, but this photo has not been airbrushed to perfection.]]

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his [[gal pal]]s and [[Joseph Herring|friend]] at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships set up by Chris's parents and the school principal). It was at this time that he first put his creative talents to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Despite Chris' claims of being an [[honor roll|honor student]], records suggest a more [[Manchester High Leaks|mediocre academic career]]. His [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]] was marked by a tearful outburst because the art award he wanted was given to someone else. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.|Excerpts from [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE]], recorded shortly before his discovery by the Internet.}}

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==
{{main|2011|2012|2013|2014}}

{{quote|I Seriously Have Been [[Chris and English|PUBLICALY]] INVISIBLE for YEARS!

[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2011]] in one of the first [[Tomgirl Pictures]]. This photo was also taken near the time of his father's death.]]

[[File:Christran2.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2012]].]]

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

[[File:Chris_mugshot_27_March_2023.png|thumb|left|150px|Chris in [[2023]], at the end of his stay in jail. Note [[Obesity|the weight loss]] compared to his first mugshot and Chris's improved mood compared to his second.]]

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a {{Age|1982|2|24}}-year-old [[Autism|autistic]], [[Chris and mental healthcare|mentally ill]],<ref>Confirmed by placement in the [[Therapeutic Docket]].</ref> [[JERKS|misandristic]] and [[Women's rights|misogynistic]] [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, [[Chris and the law|criminal]], former [[virgin with rage]], current self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]], and [[Affair with Mother|literal motherfucker]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He nowadays looks kind of like a cartoon version of {{w|Benjamin Franklin}} come to life, and is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture – if not one of the most well-documented people in history.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the infamous webcomic ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the [[Something Awful]] message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The point of no return was finally crossed in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and (un)fortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

[[File:Chris BronyCon18 with Sonichu.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Chris in [[July 2018]], posing with a fan cosplaying as Sonichu at [[BronyCon]].]]

Chris is a socially avoidant, autistic individual who has spent his life in a state of arrested development. Enabled by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the late [[Bob Chandler]], Chris has lived almost exclusively within the confines of his childhood home, surrounded by an ever-growing hoard of [[toys]] and [[video games]]. This protected existence allowed him to reject societal norms and avoid the "reality" that most adults face after graduation. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, [[Tugboat|government disability benefits]], and fan donations, often citing his autism as an insurmountable barrier to traditional work. (despite the fact that there are many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

[[Image:093-CWCtoon.jpg|thumb|right|100px|[[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris's hand-drawn representation of himself.]]]]

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> The only child to [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Ann Weston]], an office worker at Virginia Power, and [[Bob Chandler|Robert Franklin Chandler Jr.]] (1927-2011), an engineer for Western Electric and General Electric. The couple were 40 and 54 at the time of their son's birth. Little is known about Chris's toddler years; the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Despite this, Chris maintained a fondness for her, establishing a lifelong pattern of excusing the behavior of "pretty girls" while holding deep grudges against others for lesser slights.

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a special needs school. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

[[Image:CWC12.png|120px|thumb|Hard to believe, but this photo has not been airbrushed to perfection.]]

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his [[gal pal]]s and [[Joseph Herring|friend]] at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships set up by Chris's parents and the school principal). It was at this time that he first put his creative talents to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Despite Chris' claims of being an [[honor roll|honor student]], records suggest a more [[Manchester High Leaks|mediocre academic career]]. His [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]] was marked by a tearful outburst because the art award he wanted was given to someone else. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.|Excerpts from [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE]], recorded shortly before his discovery by the Internet.}}

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==

[[File:Christran2.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2012]].]]

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

==Transgender Era==

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

==Goddess Era==

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.

[[Image:JoeHerring.jpg|right|thumb|right|120px|...and as Chris depicted him.]]
{{Quote|In my Freshman Year, I was selected to be Manager/Water Boy for the Varsity Basketball Team. With my partner, who was Junior, Josheph Herring. He and I were good buddies. He confided in me his dating experiences with his ex-girlfriend then (I can't remember her name, but I'm sure she would remember). Poor fellow; that night she dumped him, he cried all by his lonesome in the cold all that night. I empathized with him, and I was able to help him cheer up. I lost touch with him after he graduated Class of 1998, yet I wonder what's he been up to and how he has been.|Chris, on his [[Chris's Wikipedia profile|Wikipedia profile]]}}

'''Joseph Herring''' (born 14 December 1979) was one of Chris's few [[MALE|male]] friends. They were water boys for the varsity basketball team at [[Manchester High School]]. Two years older, Joseph told Chris about his girlfriend, whose name may have been Lindsay. Chris consoled him when he got dumped.<ref>[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#The Teenage Years]]</ref> According to Chris, she gave him a "bum steer".<ref>[[:Image:0232-CWCNote3.jpg|DVD 99]]</ref> Chris once rode in Joseph's Jeep when the buses failed to turn up for a game.<ref>[[:Image:0232-CWCNote3.jpg|DVD 99]]</ref>

Joseph (later [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retconned]] as '''Joe Herr''') appears in [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] only during a time travel storyline. He is depicted in the comic with a ripped vest, messy brown hair and a bad case of acne. It was presumed that [[Manchester High School|Manchester High]] employs the use of the [[Slow-in-the-minds|mentally handicapped]] and horribly disfigured students to clean jockstraps and refill water bottles. The reasons given in the comic for his breakup with his girlfriend involve an incident in a restaurant involving "spilled soup" and "[[Homos|tossed salad]]". A pimply character similar to Joe appears in [[Sonichu 5|''Sonichu'' #5]] with a girlfriend, both of whom are split apart due to [[Mary Lee Walsh]]'s quest to [[Virginia is for Virgins|make true love illegal in Virginia]]. It is unknown if this throwaway character is intended to be Joe.
[[File:0244-JosephWHerring97.jpg|thumb|1997 image]]
When high-res images from the [[DVD]] slideshow were released, it was discovered that Joseph was in fact a good-looking young man with a clean face and neat black hair; it is likely that Chris drew him horribly disfigured [[Chris and his Ego|to make himself look good]] in comparison. The [[LEGO]] figure Chris made of Joe in 2014 is somewhat closer to his actual appearance.

Joe now lives in [[Wikipedia:High Point, North Carolina|High Point, North Carolina]].<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100010648302430&sk=about Facebook]</ref>

{{quote|Behold, the Mistake of God!|[[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] on Chris.}}

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a {{Age|1982|2|24}}-year-old [[Autism|autistic]], [[Chris and mental healthcare|mentally ill]],<ref>Confirmed by placement in the [[Therapeutic Docket]].</ref> [[JERKS|misandristic]] and [[Women's rights|misogynistic]] [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, [[Chris and the law|criminal]], former [[virgin with rage]], current self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]], and [[Affair with Mother|literal motherfucker]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He nowadays looks kind of like a cartoon version of {{w|Benjamin Franklin}} come to life, and is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture – if not one of the most well-documented people in history.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the infamous webcomic ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the [[Something Awful]] message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The point of no return was finally crossed in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and (un)fortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

[[Image:Chris-Straw.jpg|thumb|left|[[The Oversized Drinking Straw of Fail|An infamous image Chris drew of himself enjoying a soda in 2 ways.]]]]
[[File:Chris BronyCon18 with Sonichu.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Chris in [[July 2018]], posing with a fan cosplaying as Sonichu at [[BronyCon]].]]

Chris is a cowardly, autistic, self-identified [[Transgender|transwoman]] with delusional tendencies who has been allowed – by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the deceased [[Bob Chandler]] – to eternally live like a child, amassing [[toys]] and [[video games]] into a single [[room]] in his parents' [[14 Branchland Court|house]]. Even into his forties, Chris remains so comfortable in his protected existence that he refuses to conform to societal norms, something that already doesn't come naturally to autistic folks. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, the tugboat, the <s>begging</s> generous donations, and the fact he has flat out said his autism prevents him from getting a job (in spite of there being many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

[[File:CWC Cycle.png|thumb|right|A useful tool for predicting Christory.]]

[[File:SympathyForChris.png|thumb|left|An approximate graph which correlates knowledge about Chris to sympathy towards him.]]

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> The only child to [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Ann Weston]], an office worker at Virginia Power, and [[Bob Chandler|Robert Franklin Chandler Jr.]] (1927-2011), an engineer for Western Electric and General Electric. The couple were 40 and 54 at the time of their son's birth. Little is known about Chris's toddler years; the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Despite this, Chris maintained a fondness for her, establishing a lifelong pattern of excusing the behavior of "pretty girls" while holding deep grudges against others for lesser slights.

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a special needs school. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

[[Image:CWC12.png|120px|thumb|Hard to believe, but this photo has not been airbrushed to perfection.]]

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his [[gal pal]]s and [[Joseph Herring|friend]] at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships set up by Chris's parents and the school principal). It was at this time that he first put his creative talents to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Despite Chris' claims of being an [[honor roll|honor student]], records suggest a more [[Manchester High Leaks|mediocre academic career]]. His [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]] was marked by a tearful outburst because the art award he wanted was given to someone else. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.|Excerpts from [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE]], recorded shortly before his discovery by the Internet.}}

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

==Transgender Era==

{{main|2014|2015|2016|2017}}

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

==Goddess Era==

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.

January 2019 social media posts

This page is an archive of Chris's major social media posts during [[January 2019]]. Posts are sorted by date. Notable comments are included and color-coded for reference. Posts color-coded purple are made while Chris is roleplaying as [[Magi-Chan]].

==Good New Year==
1 January
{{quotebox|Good New Year, Everyone. I shall make my statement for now, and I Want No Backtalk Or Hateful Commentary.

The [[Dimension Merge]] of C-197 and our 1218 is still in progress. There is more damn red tape to work through, but our goal is still set; it is only delayed. Everyone of C-197 is still very much Awake; we have secured [[Arfoire]] in a magic-proof cell a few days ago. Not even that Witch’s Courier on Facebook can say otherwise, because I Know Better, and her words shall never get to or sway me any other way. I still remain the CPU Blue Heart of the Commodore Consoles, Cwcville and Comma, and Everyone is safe and well. But for now, I shall delay online talk of the Dimension Merge through my Social Media Accounts until further notice. And I still remain very much married to Magi-Chan Sonichu, Cryzel Rosechu, Sylvana Rosechu, and Mewtwo; there is room for at least one from this Dimension, but there is no rush.

For now, Happy New Year, Everyone.

Dismiss.

==Response to an artist==

''In response to @cOWOkie_pone, an artist that Chris likes posting their best drawings of 2018''

==On not going to MAGFest==
2 January

{{quotebox|For those who keep on asking, I am not going to MAGFest this time around. I’ve not heard of any Sonichu-Related Panel to show up to. AND, despite the delay in the Dimension Merge (only saying this once)...

MY Superpowers Have Been Working Hard throughout my body, All Over The Place! I Did Meet God/Emanuel and the other deities; personally and offline. I Knew, within my share of knowledge at the times, What I Have Been Talking About. It is Not My Fault there is more Deity-Level Red Tape, which no earthly Bureaucrat can ever be able to touch. Even my superpowers are still fluctuating right now; I was unable to fall asleep until 4:30 am last night after a fluctuation where my head was Seriously Working and Energy was flowing out of my hands. Things in this bedroom may as well have been levitating all over the place. All of You Haters can Never Know or Empathize with What, or How, I have been going through all of this for Months Now!

Damn Dimension 1218’s “Reality” Limits and Shit!!!

But, I digress.

So, yeah: I won’t be at MAGFest this time around. I Will be at BronyCon, Definitely; I shall save up for that. I May go to TooManyGames again, but that’s To Be Determined.

⚡️💙⚡️

I forgot to mention, Even Two 5mg Melatonin Pills, one taken Hours apart from the other, was not strong enough to knock me into sleep last night! I was WIRED and HYPED from the Psychic Fluctuations. Well, this is one thing I Knew I was signing up for when I did.}}

==Overwhelmed by trolling==
2 January

{{quotebox|One more thing for now: I do not mean to bitch, wine or complain a lot. I am literally like Stonewall Jackson or Rock of Gibraltar when it comes to coping with, overlooking and ignoring the hatred and shit I end up getting, even from a friend who turned sour by witch-possession.

But, even I have my limits. I have had Tons of emotional grounding, self-control and calming techniques, not to mention my anxiety meds (tried going without them for One Month; I felt on the verge of a heart attack a few times!). *sigh*

And the few times I ended up retaliating (DO NOT BRING UP the Frigging Pepper Spray Incident!), I was pushed beyond even my meds’ ability to totally cool me off. But I still feel the upset and anger soon enough, I let it pass, and I take deep breaths to regain myself.

Yet, even when I feel tired and paunchy (drunk-like without taking any alcohol or shit), I end up randomly spouting, “I’m gonna kick your ass” to nobody, and I hardly ever actually instilled violence before, but I still can punch and kick hard.

Point is, I’ve taken a LOT of mental and emotional, and some physical, Abuse in my lifetime; I’ve re-routed that energy into positive things most of the time. Yet, apparently, it all still lingers in the back of my mind, set to trigger and really awaken my fullest psychic,electric, Goddess, and what other SuperPowers I have inside me to begin getting shit done in the name of good, against the villains, haters and the worst of bad Bullies. But, I shall always remain kind and lovable that I have proved myself to be for everyone.

Thank you.

==Accusing fan's OC of attempted assassination==
3 January

[[File:ExiledSonichu.jpg|thumb|Exiled Sonichu, aka X.]]

{{quotebox|@TheExiledDraco, your Sonichu OC personally paid me a visit tonight; he attempted assasination of me, with commands from within Your Subconscious. Fortunately, I saw him coming and stopped him. What do you have to say for yourself on behalf of your OC’s behavior?}}

TheExiledDraco replied:

{{quoteboxgreen|I must say that it has to be an imposter feeding you lies. X is a troublemaker and loves pulling pranks, but he's no killer. And the last thing I'd want to do is order such violence.

I promise the only thing X would do is tell you about further updates on the comic dub.}}

However, Chris was insistent:

{{quotebox|Good afternoon. Firstly, Magi-Chan was a witness; he was in the bathroom with me, sitting nearby as I showered. X appeared behind me through a device-generates portal. Initially, I partially recognized him, and Magi-Chan was able to fully identify him as your OC, X, without a doubt.

He was attempting to assaniate me, at least with a prank. He had become in talks with a small group of Haters against me. Magi-Chan talked with him and discussed [[Ego|how important I am]], for one thing that he would not exist if I wasn’t around.

And then a friend of X’s showed up to retrieve him. He had a knife in his hand, but I felt his portaling-in presence, so I grabbed him by the wrist and lifted him up. A dark blue Sonichu that could be mistaken for a bad recolour OC of myself or Christy. He got a good talking-to as well. No charges or punishment will be ensued against either of them or yourself, I promise, @TheExiledDraco; I only wanted to inform you of the matter and get your thoughts. This event was one that was Fated to happen anyway.

But, aside from that, I’d like to let this be an example for those with such hatred-filled thoughts against us in their heads. We all are together and capable of defending each other. I am able to feel it coming and stop it from happening.

Thank you. ⚡️💙⚡️}}

TheExiledDraco again tried to convince Chris none of that happened:

{{quoteboxgreen|Thank you for informing, but again @CWCSonichu, I promise you that wasn't the real X. He doesn't use portals, nor is he friends with any other Sonichus. He was banished from Cwcville for his antics and doesn't associate with those working against you! Believe me! X is innocent!}}

Chris was unconvinced:

{{quotebox|Perhaps, you should re-link yourself to X and check on his more current events. You take your time to do that. He could have got the portal device from someone else.}}

Another fan asked:

{{quoteboxyellow|You sure it wasn’t just your imagination??}}

Chris answered:

{{quotebox|It is NOT my Imagination. If it was, bad things would not be happening to me. If it was purely imagination, I would not be able to physically interact with it. But, no, I was able to whack the attacker with a half-full conditioner bottle.}}

The fan pushed back:

{{quoteboxyellow|That means you are hallucinating these things. That is a bad sign. I know you will deny it but you might be developing a mental illness. Please, for the sake of your followers, go seek help!

PS You noticed me, Senpai!}}

But Chris again deflected:

{{quotebox|I am not hallucinating. If I was mentally ill, then [[the Captain]] would be too, because he has personally met Magi-Chan, and a whole lot of other people have seen him with me as well. There is no mental illness amongst us; all this is real. ⚡️💙⚡️}}

==Andross is not a Deity==
5 January

{{quotebox|Also, just to let Everyone Know: Andross, of Star Fox, is NOT a Deity. Anyone who sees him as such, or compares my face to his, are either misguided and/or blind.}}

==Thought of the morning==
6 January

{{quotebox|Okay, Thought of the Morning:

Most Everyone knows that I am truly a kind individual and simply fun and chill to hang out, talk, and even Associate With. And that is how I naturally continue to be of myself to everyone, and want it clear and understood.

I am Not someone who targets and harasses Anyone; I am not one of those Awful and Bad Trolls.

I spread kindness, love and positive support where and when I am able to. And I feel happy when others are feeling happy. And I will stand in support for and with anyone who gets harassed or bullied. I will not stand for anyone getting hurt or targeted like that.

Call someone Short or Weak? I would tell you to back off, and then I would offer support for the victim, as they are Strong and Tall in my eyes and heart.

Badger Anyone with the NSFW things from a Decade Ago? You Dirty Bastard! YOU Should be thrown in Jail for thrusting offensive shit upon Anyone!

Hate upon the LGBTQ? Not on my watch!

Hate upon the elderly? I Respect and Appreciate the elderly, so You Shut Up!

Point is: I, Mrs. Christine Weston Chandler Sonichu, am Kind-Hearted, Supportive and Chill and Cool to Be Associated and Friends With. I want to help others when I can, and I like talking with others too. I also would like to help and collaborate with others that I like. ⚡️💙⚡️

And furthermore, I will probably be amongst the best of Friends anyone can ask for or want. But I can’t be of support or help if I am Blocked, ESPECIALLY when it should be the Harassing Troll who should be Blocked; Not I. Don’t Pull a Cole Smithey on me like that, Please!

Because it also ticks me off when my kindness and support is Blocked, and I can’t help you if I am Blocked.

⚡️💙⚡️}}

==High-score girl==
6 January

{{quotebox|Hey, just to talk a bit about the anime “High Score Girl” on Netflix: this is a good show. Akira Ono is curious to me as a silent and distant protagonist. The way she behaves and shows her emotions, it makes me wonder if Akira, here, is autistic, because that would make sense.}}

==Shipping Chris's characters==
7 January

''In response to @darkrisethepony shipping his pony OC with someone else's''

{{quotebox|I’m not normally a shipper, but my Lightning Quartz and her Dawn Dazzle... Yep, I’d ship ‘em. 😊

Soo Kawaii!!!}}

{{quotebox|By the way, what typing is X?

==Pub prank==
7 January

{{quotebox|Just thought of a Prank Pub for Moe’s Tavern. “I’m looking for a Codrap; first name, Jessup.” “Hey, Everyone! I’m looking for Jessup Codrap!” “Are you sure? You don’t sound like you have a cold, Moe.”}}

==Rosechu's birthday==
8 January

{{quotebox|Happy Birthday, Rosey! 🎂😊

[[File:08_01_19_Rosechu_Desc_Cropped.jpeg|400px]]}}

==A message to the president==
8 January

{{quotebox|You know what, @realDonaldTrump, I’m gonna say something to you now. I saw your Narcissim from Miles Away even Before your first Presidential Debate! Hell, I have had actual premonition Dreams of you blowing your stack as you have been doing since entering the White House.

Even in the form of an animated look-alike of you that had existed Before you became famous, that OC’s head literally exploded like yours must be doing right now all over the place. The Freaking Wall is Seriously Not Worth the Freaking Government Shutdown, Hothead!

Ugh! I’m even having a Deja Vu moment as I type this up; premonition dreams are a real heck of a thing. But I digress.

Drumpf, you MUST Call Off Building Your Wall, because even if you are in effort of country defense, there are always ways around a damn wall.

If you’re going for copycat of Great Wall of China or the Berlin Wall, you are really a Dundernuts! Even Emanuel, our God of this world, is seriously not liking your wall at all. Especially at the Great Costs of your People, and Your Self! Stop your BS Nonsense Already, Please!

Your Wall is NOT going to make Any Better Defense than a simple slingshot, even as armed to the freaking teeth, it is as useless as that slingshot versus a Demigorgan or similar monster. You Are Seriously Deusional if you continue to ponder that the wall will make Any Difference.

I am finished stating my peace; heed my words as you will, Mister Not-President.

Good Day to you.

==Overweight Chris cheating his fitbit results==
8 January

{{quotebox|Seriously, though, the last few times I looked on my smart scale of how much I weighed, without clothes, at above 210, I hopped off immediately without letting it sync with my Fitbit app. ALOL

Well, I’ll have that belt swapped out very soon and be back on track.

==Carpet type belt==

==Magi-chan's request==
11 January

{{quoteboxpurple|Good day, Everyone. It is I, Magi-Chan Sonichu. I am messaging everyone today with a simple request on behalf of my sweetheart, Christine.

Stop Harassing My Wife, and furthermore, Stop Harassing the People she talks to and with.

I, for one, am very appalled at the continuing hatred and harassment that gets left behind in the comments under each of her Tweets, Posts and thoughts. This is very tough on Christine, as she is already going through all of the mental, soulful, and physical obligations in her role as CPU. Even Emanuel, herself, who you all refer to as God, is just as disappointed in the lot of you haters and bullies on the internet. I will be personally visiting each of you who leave these hurtful commentaries and drain your memories of any and all technological knowledge. You all have abused your privileges.

And I am not a bad individual, and to all of those who do not believe or see me as false, you have yet to really know me.

I do my best as well in kindness and in the goodness of the well-being of this world’s inhabitants along with all of the other OCs who guide each of you, among which you refer to as your Guardian Angel.

Be well and stay safe, everyone.

==On being blocked==
14 January

''In response to an artist asking for commissions''

{{quotebox|I am relaying a link out of kindness and support for an artist who needs money for her child.

I am all too well aware of the risks involved, Especially the Haters looking to target and harass those of who I am trying to be kind and supportive of, or simply talk to, with or about.

I am Not Fond of the Haters and Harassing types, and I do not condone their bullying of Anyone.

But, I have faith in the common sense of everyone in being able to simply Block those who actually do the Harassing and Hating, instead of me.

I remain the victim of circumstances every time someone Blocks Me instead of Blocking the actual Haters who Harass.

Look at my Tweet History on @CWCSonichu; do you see me making ANY such harassment or hurtful commentary to Anyone who is innocent of Hating or Harassing?

Absolutely NOT!

All I did was relay that ChaoticChimera needed money, so I relayed the link to her Tweet about her dilemma. What happened? The Haters Harassed Her, and I Got Blocked!

I did not make any such negative commentary, Not One Word from me, and yet I get Blocked over the actual Haters!

[[File:ChimeraBlock.jpg|400px]]

Do you all know HOW I Feel every time I Learn that someone I follow, like and respect on Twitter Blocks Me?!

I Freaking Hit The Wall after Running At Mach Speeds! THAT’S How I Feel! And The Shock Freaking Hurts!

AND Sharing Mis-Content about me with ANYONE, especially that which is More than a Decade Old, is Garbage.

*sigh* But I Digress.

My main goal here is helping the artist by relaying her link; That Is All. I do not want to hear or see Anyone Harassing or Hating on her or her family.

Thank You.

==Chris defending himself from accusations==
14 January

''In response to a ween saying he's a confirmed pedophile (that's not true, by the way)''

{{quotebox|Do Not Listen to those Haters, Lio. I am Not a Pedophile. That was taken out of context from me being solely entertaining or kind to the youngsters. I would Never Ever be attracted to any minor or teen. So, again: Please, Do Not Listen to those Haters, Dude.}}

''Deleted account responds, probably Lio, probably talking about all the crazy stuff they're finding out about Chris''

{{quotebox|That’s fair, but make sure none of the evidence is Photoshop or Cropped. The Haters are very likely to do that. Also, inflatable dolls should not count, regardless of printed imagery on them.

I loathe those Bad Trolls who coerced that outdated media out of me.

I state what I have stated without fear of prejudice, because I have proven myself better in the Decade’s time since. And I personally, usually refrain from any adult-type of dialogue, and such speech is strictly reserved for those who make the first move on me and consent and are over the legal age of consent, which in this case is 18 Years Old. I am Responsible like that.

And one last note: in EVERY Online Direct-Message One-on-One (Theoretical) Relationship I Ever Had, Each and Every one of those Women and “Women” did make the First Move on me, and they each had told me early on they were at least 21 Years of age.}}

15 January

''SPOILER: no. Though he's wrong about excusing sexualizing Blanc.''

{{quotebox|Hey, Everyone; I have an announcement. Clarification for the accusations presented against me that state that I am a pedophile, these call outs are false. On behalf of the characters I have created in the comics, any lewd scenes were for artistic purposes and not all were in necessity for sexual acts for pleasure of myself or the readers. The issues I made a long time ago were in response of the harassment I had faced. As for she who is the white CPU, within her games she is legal, while yes, the CPUs do appear as younger, they are not.

The CPUs all have lived very long lives, as they are Goddesses. I appreciate the support to and of those who have been helping me through the harassment I have currently been facing.

Thank You All.

==Nightmare==
20 January

{{quotebox|Hey, Everyone. I am feeling okay right now.

But Positive Moment aside, I actually had a nightmare that I’d like to share. I also actually had this same nightmare years ago in my childhood or so. The Disneyland Nightmare.

Various things happen in it, the most haunting being getting shards of shattered pottery dug into my arms on the rides. Some flames too. And too many “Watch Your Head” moments with too low ceiling beams and rising floor beams; Duck and Jump! Duck, Duck, Duck, Jump, Jump, Duck, Jump, Duck, Duck, Jump...

And the travels back home from there being Cursed by good fortune from during the visit to Disneyland (this park was in a city in Virginia, whose name was similar to New Hampshire, but Not the actual state).

More of the same happened on the way home too: pottery shards, vehicular risks and accidents, passing vehicles with axe blades hanging from their driver-side windows, so you seriously have to Duck! Also, demonic individuals like Maleficent were in the park being really Demonic as well. I even had a figure trio of the three Guardian Fairies of Aurora, for some reason, reveal themselves to be Alvin, Simon and Theodore; the chipmunks. But, seriously, this repeat Disneyland Nightmare really frightened me!

Yeah, not meaning to offend anyone, but I’m gonna stay away from the Disneyland and World parks; I am appropriately scared shitless.

Thanks for listening. ⚡️💙⚡️}}

==Message to 1218 rebels and haters==
21 January

{{quotebox|Hey, everyone. I’ve just talked with the war rebels and haters in C-197. And now, I am going to share the statement with the rebels and haters here in this world and dimension.

For those who don’t know, this war is between the CPUs, Deities, Heroes and Superheroes, and the villains and super villains who are acting against the Prophecies and Destinies that all are happening, have happened, and shall happen, in the progress between this Earth of 1218 and our Earth of C-197.

I am not one for warfare, and I don’t instigate or condone such, but the villains still will do what they will, because that is their agenda that they refuse to change. But, we Heroes and Deities do what we all must to stand and fight to defend the good of both worlds and dimensions. Like all heroes before us: we defend and fight for y’all’s freedom, safety and good health. And we will not stop defending y’all, because we really do care for all of you, our peoples, individuals, OCs, creatures (big and small), and everyone else who loves and lives freely. In the end, our two dimensions shall be merged, and we will all be able to live fully tangible with each other and everyone as soon as possible, as it Has been destined and prophesied.

NOW, to all of you Haters and Hazers who try to take us, the heroes, and I, a CPU and Sonichu, down with the crass and unnecessary remarks, commentary and outdated dirt, footage and crap.

I look down upon all of you, and I feel shame and sorrow of all of you in your own respective lack of self-confidence and feeling small. Feeling like you all have to resort to thrusting hatred to make an emotional high for yourselves, like a really bad drug that eats at your souls and being.

Also, I understand how all of you state that I am not making progress in myself, but I AM Making Great Progress in Myself; you all do not understand, because y’all closed yourselves off to not only the Truth and Real Facts that are just sitting and standing right there in front of y’all, invisible to others, coming from C-197 as it continues to merge with 1218, here,... and denying yourselves of the freedom to love and appreciate the creations of others, maybe even yourselves.

And you force this handicap of yourselves unto others with hatred; upon myself, and Everyone Else who is Creative and Open-Hearted and Open-Minded; fully able to see, appreciate and recognize, but we Resist Your Hatred. Granted there are those who are still learning to resist the hatred, but they are coping and doing their best on that. And We Shall Resist The Hatred from all of you. SO, here is the thing, Haters and Bullies: why can’t y’all find something else that is actually popularly disliked, like Putin and his speil against the LGBTQ in Russia, recently. Or @realDonaldTrump’s Freaking Damned Wall, literally making His Own People PAY for that wall which also blocked out the good of the Government, and the money out of your own pockets. But I digress; this is Not about that wall; this is about you all, the Haters, and how y’all need to find something else to focus your hatred upon.

And, I will recommend this, as I did to the Haters and Rebels earlier today: Go Punch a (reinforced) Bag of Sand. Even those of y’all who are stuck to a chair in perma-epic-fail, y’all can still reach out and punch a bag of sand that you ordered from Lowe’s or something.

And Do Not Harass or Target the Creative Types, the Heroes and Super Heroes, the deities, the Innocent Peoples In between and everywhere, or Myself, with that Hatred.

To borrow Dr. King’s intro line, “I Have a Dream”, a Dream where everyone is kind to each other, regardless of race, religion, colour of skin, sexual identity and/or orientation. And Kindness from those who Hated before, finding their own Happiness in being Kind, with Hatred and Bullying put aside in worn out punching sand bags. Those who I had nightmares of looking to trash my home’s yard with running tires and weapons against my person in needless angst; having to defend myself with my own wit and speed; NOW coming to my front door, standing by the walkway, with sincere apologetic and kind looks on their faces. And not weapons, but gifts of kindness, love and sincere smiles. And I am Forgiving of those who used to Hate, having realized the folly and wrong of their ways.

I actually did have those nightmares, and more recently, the kinder, apologetic repentance and remorse.

Thank You All for listening. Have a great and safe day.
We are all working together to keep these days great and safe for all of you; Body, Mind, Soul, and Superpowers.

==Chris calms down and apologizes==
23 January

{{quotebox|Everyone, I have a couple of announcements:

Firstly, I sincerely apologize for my mind exploding, going blank and lashing out as it did earlier. Mad Munchkin Blocking Me on Twitter was the straw that broke my head. I still want very much to be Unblocked by everyone who had of me.

Second, After thorough investigation and talking it out, I have come to the conclusion that @MKR11217089 is Not a Troll and indeed Genuine of herself. Anyone on the Kiwi or similar Forums who says it is her is, in fact, Not Her at all; an impostor, pulling what content they could from her Twitter and other online accounts. I have been talking with her for over a week; she has NOT AT ALL EVER asked me or forced me of anything Bad or Questionable.

And my husband, Magi-Chan, had confirmed her to be legit, and a CPU among the few of us of this, 1218's Earth, who are destined to be CPUs to help out in the mutual cause between both Dimensions and the Earths in them, and every single one of our people and individuals residing in them.

And this is NOT a Delusion, Illusion, Imagination, Make-Believe or False, It is all Very Much R E A L! I have stated this time and again, and I would very much appreciate it if there was No More Talk at all of our Truesight, Superpowers, and so forth of C-197 being insinuated as False at all.

And Furthermore, I would very much appreciate there being NO MORE Harassment or Back Talk against MKR. She Has Faced the online Hatred and spoke from the heart. Please, be respectful and kind to her. Thank You.}}

==Chris denies the threats were threats==
23 January

{{quotebox|What part out of all of my Tweet Thread is a “Threat”?

Ah, I see, the “Impending” part of the definition. In reference and light of how, in my, the soul, absence, since I was in C-197 working with Magi-Chan, Mewtwo, and Sylvana, fighting the battles and defending Nations yesterday and this Morning and Afternoon times, my body, with its direct and conscious intelligence, common sense, and muscle memory, without my better guidance, and feeling as seriously stressed out and worse at the times of finding Mad Munchin Blocking me, as well as the bead necklace from PacSun breaking while I slept last night, gathering all of the beads for restringing and repair, as well as my quartz coming undone from the left wrist’s watchband, having to reglue it back on on Yep, my body’s mind felt Severely Overwhelmed and acted out the way it did on Twitter earlier, bringing up that most unpleasant memory of mine from Fourth Grade (that incident was what led to Green County wanting to put me in a mental institution, due to lack of understanding
how to work with young individuals with autism, and then ultimately my family and I moving to Midlothian and resuming my schooling education there).

SO, with the earlier events in mind, I, the soul, felt great need to advise caution of a repeat of my body’s lack of tact in response should the present situation of me being Blocked by the individuals that I like and appreciate from their contributions, content and personalities

So, yes, feeling need to reiterate to empathize the point: I would feel a whole lot better and better able to recover if I was no longer Blocked by ANYONE on Twitter.

Not a threat, I do promise, but I would hate to see my body lash out and attack again as it did earlier,should the issue remain unresolved. Seriously, I literally blushed on the battlefield as I read what my body talked about from that pinned down and choking incident. Oh, My Gosh! It really is unflattering of me, but another piece of the puzzle of my life falls into reveal.

I am tired after this long day. Thank you for listening. Goodnight.

==C-197 Update==
25 January

{{quotebox|Hey, Everyone. Just a side-note on the thing that has been happening in our Sister Dimension: I have been the #TF2 #AnalysisAnarchy Red Spy since last November. My hubby, @MagiChan111448, talked with the real Dr. Wolf and Firebrand there and set it up. I NEEDED the Training, and the practice, teamwork and all has been very good and beneficial for me. I did make allies and friends with my teammates, the OCs, themselves. Another reason why I am clearing things up with their creators here: to keep it from getting awkward. This ol' soul and this body and mind can't handle the stress and anxiety as well as it used to. Though the strength has been in the soul moreover the body. But I digress. It was a good day getting to train with Thespio on day one and prove I can tone down my powers and allow respawn on the field. Hell, after I got away from the Blue Team members in the first trials, and passed in Dr. Wolf's eyes, I was In. And, for good sportmanship, I even offered a free kill after that day. Maddy jumped in on that and got me good. Off the field in free time, I don't die easily. Anyhoo, disabling the Blue Team's machinery, getting in on the stealthy kills and the disguises. I make my own blades and electricity, but I tone it down for the exercieses and everyone else. One time, I got KP good by transforming myselfinto Kim Possible and telling her Shego was out in the desert; pretended there was a bomb to swat off her back and went in for the zap-stab. Not always so easy, I've had rough days, and I ended up pulling a Lightning Bliss and slipping up. Eh, I am the CPU of the Commodore Consoles and all, but I still have my faults. Another true story, after talking with Dr. Wolf, and creating a faux Alicorn Amulet, I feigned lack of better superpowers with it off, and pretended my powers were from the amulet. And I dulled the powers of the actual amulet.

Dustykatt fell for the illusions, removed the real amulet and stole the faux one from me. And I snagged and stowed the real amulet into my magical satchel. And after Dusty tried to use Superpowers from the amulet and failed, I revealed My Superpowers by Transforming into my CPU Form then flying back to Coal Town. Celestia was contacted by Dr. Wolf, and the real amulet was collected personally by her. But Dusty rushed in to try to get it back, but we snuckered him with Mary Sue's help. Speaking of Mary Sue, she and Gary Stu have been getting along really well since they started living together a few months ago. She is really shaping him up, and he is doing good in shaping his personality. Still a long way to go before he's earned back his essence, which keeps him from being Totally Practically Perfect.

Anyhoo, Regardless of the Rumors and Lies I heard through the Grapevine, who, those of this world and dimension, 1218, SAY becomes the Red Spy on the Analysis Anarchy: Not To Be Credited or Believed, Ever. Because I, Mrs. Christine Weston Chandler Sonichu, have been, and I Still Am the Red Spy on Dr. Wolf and Firebrand's Team. No Doubt; One-Hundred Percent; Real As Reality and Lack of Reality. Zappin' It Up.

Even more shocking, my neighbor across the street from me shouted angrily at me; blaming me for his child questioning their Gender Identity; this happened Thursday. More Stress and Anxiety on top of all of the other Chaos and Drama.

{{quotebox|On a more positive note, after waking at the alarm a little while ago, I linked with my soul in Coal Town. The Analysts’ OCs practice and work on weekends from 8:00 am to about 6 or 8 pm; they do their jobs and artwork the rest of the week. Anyway, I just got in a good streak of kills. I saw Sweetie comin’; disguises Myself as KP and told her about how “I did the thing and got everyone distracted up ahead.” She followed me into a dead end part of town. “Oopsie, must have made a wrong turn.” Zap Blade. Then I saw GoldenFox above; thought I’d do something different. I changed into Lightning Bliss. He does always have his eyes on Key. “Hey, Goldie, I lost Key. Can you help me?” While he was distracted pointing out where she was, Zap Blade. “Ha! I’ll get you next time, Christine.” Then I ran down and slipped into disguise. “Key! I got knocked out by the red team’s spy! I had to rush to find you again.” “Wow, Goldiebear, you look really beat up. I’m sorry that happened to you.” I snuck a Zap Blade when she wasn’t looking. Bliss came out with an “Oh-Ho! Spy comin’ in for kills, huh?”

I slipped a Thunder Wave during her speech to disable her Gat. Slipped out of my disguise. Then she tried to shoot, but nothing. “Let me help you refill your ammo and health.” “Ha! You got me good, Christine.” Zap Blade.

I step out of the building, when Maddie comes along, “Wow! You’re really getting in your kills, Chris. Keep up the good work.” My CWC Senses tingled. Spy Check with a Thunder Wave! Revealed Thespio. “Nice try, Thespie.” “It was well worth it.” Zap Blade. Then, seconds later, Hit to my head. I look up and see GoldenFox with that smirk on his face. “You really got me!” I shouted to him before fainting, then respawning. There is a good feel when respawning; it is like a virgin morning breath as it happens. Then I set out again. Then my brain unlinks.

And now I, the body, get to tell everyone a bit of what happened in Equestria’s Coal Town today. I may be slow, but my soul is Lightning Quick in wit and though process.

==IMPOSTERS!==
27 January

{{quotebox|Another Point that I Feel needs bringing up: there ARE Impostor accounts on Twitter who have been Pretending to be me and Harassing the good people as well. I feel it advised, the remaining Brony Analysts reading this, to check with everyone who supposed got Harassing and Hate messages and commentary from me, when Really it was one of these Bugbear Impostors.
(I’m using “Bugbear” as an umbrella term for the Haters, Harassers and all Bad Trolls; they all are just as Annoying)
Anyhow, EVERYONE should check the “Chris Chan” who did Harass unto them, because Highly Likely, it was NOT from me at all. @CWCSonichu is me; I have no intention of changing my own main account at all. Those with similar, such as (REDACTED WEEN), (REDACTED WEEN), (REDACTED WEEN), (REDACTED WEEN), (REDACTED WEEN), and so forth and similar; they are all Not Me.

They may also try to throw it away from themselves by tagging me, or adding @CWCSonichu, into their Tweets, Replies and DMs.Do Not Be Fooled! Check the Twitter Handle BEFORE you read the Username or the message, entirely.

I admit, I have Only Two Alt-Accounts: @NightStar2891 and that other one that I Seriously Can Not recall its name at all (someone might remember it; had the Avatar of Twilight Sparkle in a Disco jacket; maybe sunglasses).

And @MagiChan111448, I did personally help create with and for my hubby. There are Absolutely No Other Twitter Accounts under my own Creation and/or Control.

Point Is: if it is not from @CWCSonichu, then it is NOT ME. If you were recently Victimized by an Impostor, then misguidedly Blocked Me, then you DEFINITELY Blocked Me for the WRONGEST of Reasons and Misintentions. In which event, I would appreciate being Unblocked.

Retweets of this Tweet Set, with No Comment above it, would be well appreciated. Thank you.

{{quotebox|Y’all’s Abusive, Reckless, Needless and Downright Offensive Imagery and Commentary are One Thing that simply Drives Me Crazy and Crazier. If I never had to deal with all of your blackmail, deceit and BS since 2007, I would not be so Crazy To Target You Bugbears Back!!!

You all think I’m Not Tired of countering all of you for coercing and deceiving others into Misfuided Fear and Hatred of me and aa Very Outdated Reputation you all keep on Bugging and Bopping Me and Everyone Else In Harassment After Harassment?!

I AM TIRED! And as much as I would Admire to Live My Life, I Simply Can Not In Good Conscious and Subconscious of Both This Mind and My Soul Leave With Everyone I Like Hating Me for the Wrongest of Misguided Reasons!!!

Also, THINK!

==Another rant about bullies==
28 January

{{quotebox|I am still working very hard to redeem myself in the eyes of those who had rejected me over the past week, due to the injustices that had been brought unto them with misguided fears from Years Old and Cleared, yet ashamed, mistakes I had made (most of which were manipulations of those Haters and Harassers of Yesterdecade who all still want to torture me worse, into my own Offline Social Life). I can not and shall not Rest my over weary and broken mind until I see these people liking me once again. Because to them, all I did was offer Supportive and Kind Commentaries, Thoughts and Replies; Time After Time, again and again. And what falls Below Each and Every Positive Note I leave, but a cacophony of misconstrued and twisted takes on my word choices and phrasing’s in my genuine kindness.

I Never Was Hitting On Anyone! I Never Intended Any Harm unto Anyone! And I certainly never meant to offend. And I Never Harassed. No! That Harassment came from those CyberBullies who continue to stalk me day after day, month after month, year after year, since the year Two-Thousand Seven! Going on Twelve Years! When will the lot of you Annoying Bullies who Fetish on Hatred and Harassment Simply Back Off and Let Me Live Offline and Online In Peace of Mind and for me to spread sincere kindness and support, without it getting twisted and misinterpreted as another freaking penis or fart joke? I am Long Sick and Tired of all of this Grave Injustice that continues to linger in my online footsteps. In a better part of this world, action Does take place against continued hatred and mal-speech, yet those Bullies and Bugbears continue to use “Freedom of Speech”; Amendment, First; as their Excuse and “Alibi” for their continued Abuse of the Internet. That, people, is a perfect example of Abuse to that which is amongs the Amendments surrounding the Constitution our forepeople left before us in Millenium, Century and Decade, Past. And I certainly will Not Stand for any of that abuse to everything of the Internet and the United States In the Name of the Worst Mislabeling unto ANYONE: a Hated Social Outcast! Hell, No!

I continue to do my work with as great a stride my limited mind and body are able to handle, and I am reaching out for help in resolving the Injustice of the Misguided Fears and Hatred unto the Innocent Individuals that I Like, who before now had a Positive Impression from me in recent years’ Past. I have been the Bullies’ and Bugbears’ Ongoing Victim of CyberBullying, Deceit and Blackmail since 2007, but I stand Strong against those who had Wronged Me and Wronged Others into erroneously misplacing Wrong unto me. I am a proud Warrior and CPU, and I shall not fall! And with the help of all of my allies, near, far and in our Sister Dimension; We Shall Win over the Hate and Harassment! Who is with me in agreement and strength and ability for the fights for our online and offline socializing Freedoms?

Thank you all for listening, Everyone who actually Listens and does not Criticize and Deman Every Word I Say.

{{quotebox|Good day, everyone.

I have just heard through the grapevine that apparently one, who shall be noted as Kibo, has also blocked me. I never knew of this Kibo at all before today. Also, others also blocking me who I had also Never Heard Of Before.

This is only a minor shock to me.

But, this does make me believe that Other Individuals may be blocking me for the sake of riding on the “trend” and “meme” of blocking me, and possibly making up stories of being harassed by the Bugbears who continue to stalk and follow me. Even feigning “White Knights” going on asking these complete strangers to unblock me.

I see through this charade, and I find it Most Distasteful. If Everyone Blocked Everyone Else In the Entire World, Just for the Attention, then each individual of this whole world would really be all alone on Twitter.

Therefore, I feel it very much advised to voice Discouragement Towards This Trend and Meme.

NEVER BLOCK ANYONE FOR THE INTENTION OF ATTENTION-GRABBING AND WANTING! It is Simply Not Good At All.

@TwitterSupport, please make note of this Trend and Meme.

{{quote|Behold, the Mistake of God!|[[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] on Chris.}}

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a {{Age|1982|2|24}}-year-old [[Autism|autistic]], [[Chris and mental healthcare|mentally ill]],<ref>Confirmed by placement in the [[Therapeutic Docket]].</ref> [[JERKS|misandristic]] and [[Women's rights|misogynistic]] [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, [[Chris and the law|criminal]], former [[virgin with rage]], current self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]], and [[Affair with Mother|literal motherfucker]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He nowadays looks kind of like a cartoon version of {{w|Benjamin Franklin}} come to life, and is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture – if not one of the most well-documented people in history.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the infamous webcomic ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the [[Something Awful]] message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The point of no return was finally crossed in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and (un)fortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

[[File:Chris BronyCon18 with Sonichu.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Chris in [[July 2018]], posing with a fan cosplaying as Sonichu at [[BronyCon]].]]

Chris is a cowardly, autistic, self-identified [[Transgender|transwoman]] with delusional tendencies who has been allowed – by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the deceased [[Bob Chandler]] – to eternally live like a child, amassing [[toys]] and [[video games]] into a single [[room]] in his parents' [[14 Branchland Court|house]]. Even into his forties, Chris remains so comfortable in his protected existence that he refuses to conform to societal norms, something that already doesn't come naturally to autistic folks. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, the tugboat, the <s>begging</s> generous donations, and the fact he has flat out said his autism prevents him from getting a job (in spite of there being many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

[[File:CWC Cycle.png|thumb|right|A useful tool for predicting Christory.]]

[[File:SympathyForChris.png|thumb|left|An approximate graph which correlates knowledge about Chris to sympathy towards him.]]

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

[[Image:093-CWCtoon.jpg|thumb|right|100px|[[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris's hand-drawn representation of himself.]]]]

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

[[Image:0147-CWCsMilkcapsAcrossTime.jpg|240px|thumb|The evolution (or decay, depending upon how you see things) of Chris-chan... in a {{w|Pogs|pog}} form (yes, those are homemade pogs). Top: Chris '94, '95, '96. Bottom: '97, '98', '99.]]

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> His parents, [[Borb|Robert and Barbara]], worked as an engineer at Western Electric (later General Electric) and an office worker at Virginia Power, respectively. Although little is known about Chris's toddler years, the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Apparently, he doesn't hold any hard feelings over it (possibly just because she's a pretty girl – if a [[JERKS|guy]] or an [[Mary Lee Walsh|ugly girl]] did that to him, Chris would [[Death threats|swear vengeance]]).

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a "special school," which Bob and Barbara likely interpreted to mean a nut-house. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

[[Image:CWC12.png|120px|thumb|Hard to believe, but this photo has not been airbrushed to perfection.]]

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his "[[gal pal]]s" and "[[Joseph Herring|friend]]" at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships). It was at this time that he first put his "creative talents" to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Chris claims to have been on the [[honor roll]], and during this time acquired the true source of his powers, his [[Amnyfest Ring]]. Because the art award he wanted was given to someone else, Chris became despondent and stormed out crying during his [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]]. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

Thank you very much, and have a wonderful day.|Excerpts from [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE]], recorded shortly before his discovery by the Internet.}}

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==
{{main|2011|2012|2013|2014}}

{{quote|I Seriously Have Been [[Chris and English|PUBLICALY]] INVISIBLE for YEARS!

[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2011]] in one of the first [[Tomgirl Pictures]]. This photo was also taken near the time of his father's death.]]

[[File:Christran2.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2012]].]]

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

==Transgender Era==

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

==Second Coming Era==

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.

'''Joseph Cole Smithey''' (born 24 July 1963)<ref>''[[:Image:046-ColeCDIn.jpg|A CD For Cole Smithey!]]''</ref> is [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]]'s maternal half-brother and [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]]'s first son. Despite sharing genetics with his [[Christian Weston Chandler|mentally challenged brother]] and being raised and abused by the same [[Barb|horrible mother]], Cole leads a relatively normal life. [[Cole Smithey E-mails|Cole's emails to Chris]] revealed a lot of information about the Chandler family.

==Life==

===Childhood===
Cole was born on 24 July 1963, to mother [[Barbara Chandler]], and father [[Ran Coleman Yeatts]], who divorced Barbara before Cole was born. Barb has claimed that Jack Dale Smithey was Cole's father, who she claimed to have married; however, their relationship is shrouded in mystery, and Cole has spent years trying to figure out if Barbara was even actually married to Jack. He was mainly raised by Barbara and her later husband, stepfather Jerry Harmon. Harmon used to perform as a magician, and Cole frequently performed alongside him in his stage act entitled [[Operation Snowball]]. As a kid, he got into music, film and comics as a hobby.<ref>[https://cheunderground.site/there-to-here-cole-smithey-smartest-film-critic-in-the-world/#more-10309 Cole Smithey bio interview from Che Underground]</ref> He stated he was a big fan of [[wikipedia:Kiss (band)|Kiss]], and attended drum lessons at the age of 12. He saw his first R-rated movie, ''{{w|The Big Boss|Fists of Fury}}'', at the age of 8.

Cole has stated that his childhood was fraught with abuse. In [[Cole Smithey E-mails|e-mails exchanged with his half-brother Chris]], Cole particularly singled out Barbara for her treatment of him, stating she would abuse him via methods like bare spankings and cold showers. He also called out Jerry for his treatment of him as well, saying he'd join in with Barb and her abuse of Cole; however, he has been more charitable about Jerry in other accounts, so it's more than likely that Barb treated him the worst. In his article [[Saturday Night Special]], Cole recounted an incident where Barbara fired a loaded gun at a steel door to ward off a burglar, the resulting ricochet of which almost struck young Cole in the head. These events have obviously had a lasting impression on him, and almost certainly contributed to him eventually leaving the care of Barbara in 1980.

===California (1980-96)===
[[Image:6a00d8341c2b7953ef02c8d3ac7527200b-pi.png|150px|right|Cole Smithey, c. early 1990s]]
Cole left home in 1980 at the age of 16 or 17 and moved to California.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref> Not long after moving, he had a sinus infection which came close to killing him.<ref>[[Rental House Tour]]</ref> This was the second of at least three near-death encounters in his life. Cole's LinkedIn profile states that he attended [[wikipedia:San Diego State University|San Diego State University]] from 1981 and earned a Dramatic Art degree in Music in 1984.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> While at college he was the drummer for a [[wikipedia:Poway, California|Poway]]-based punk rock band called "The Rockin' Dogs" which played shows in the San Diego area. The band was formed in 1981 and broke up in 1985.<ref>[http://www.sandiegoreader.com/bands/rockin-dogs/ The Rockin' Dogs | San Diego Reader]</ref>

Cole later moved to Northern California. At some point, he attended [[wikipedia:Hartnell College|Hartnell College]] and [[wikipedia:San Francisco City College|San Francisco City College]], where he pursued a similar course of study. His LinkedIn profile does not mention him receiving a degree from either school.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> In July 1989, the Chandler household, including Chris, flew to San Francisco to celebrate Cole's 26th birthday. This was the only time they came to visit him during his entire 16-year tenure in California. By 1994, still in San Francisco, Cole was doing shows as "Cole Blooded" and had apparently shifted to the guitar.

In 1996 he moved to New York.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref>

===Present===
{{quote|As the story goes, human boy Andy (voiced by John Morris) is off to [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|college]], and must finally put away [[List of toys|childish things]] — something most boys do before junior high.

Cole currently lives in Manhattan and is a film critic who is featured on Rotten Tomatoes.<ref>http://www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/cole-smithey/</ref> He was mentioned in ''Time'' magazine for being the first critic to give a negative review to ''Toy Story 3'', breaking the ''Toy Story'' franchise's string of perfect scores on RT.<ref>http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/06/19/can-147-critics-be-wrong-meet-the-two-pundits-who-trashed-toy-story-3/</ref> Several years later, in an interview with Arthur Spatchcock, Chris stated that he disagreed with his brother's review even though he hadn't seen the film.

Cole occasionally hosts [[eBay]] auctions for the winning bidder to spend a night with him drinking craft beer at his wife's bar and talking about film, proving that, despite one half-brother being a pretentious wannabe hipster douchebag and the other being a socially-stunted mentally-ill manchild, they both share the same [[Chris and his ego|bloated ego]].<ref>http://www.ebay.com/itm/Drink-Craft-Beer-in-NYC-with-Film-Critic-Cole-Smithey-/291052352033?hash=item43c4127221</ref>

He brands himself as "The Smartest Film Critic in the World." (A title that the late, esteemed film critic {{w|Roger Ebert}} once mocked.<ref>http://www.colesmithey.com/filmblog/2009/04/my-dialogue-with-roger.html</ref>) Cole regularly posts his reviews to YouTube, but his videos have hilariously low view counts, rarely more than a few hundred per video and sometimes not even more than a few ''dozen'', even on reviews of well-known films. Ironically, the various videos Chris posted to YouTube over the years are literally thousands of times more popular than those of his relatively more successful brother. It probably doesn't help matters that Cole Smithey's videos have rather low production values, and negative reviews of well-received films (like ''Toy Story 3'' and ''Lady Bird'', which we will get to). On a sidenote, he also considers [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|''Freddy Got Fingered'']] (a film often considered to be one of the worst of all time) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JUuAhFVlk4 to be "Classic Cinema"].

{{quote|''Wild Strawberries'' is a thematically abundant film that fluidly condenses a lifetime's worth of experience into succinct cinematic fragments under Ingmar Bergman's complex construction of abstract corollaries.|An example of Cole Smithey's obsession with big words<ref>http://www.colesmithey.com/capsules/2014/07/wild-strawberries.html</ref>|3=}}

By [[March 2007]], Cole was in a relationship with a woman named Katherine (no, not [[Catherine|her]]).<ref name="Email" /> This is most likely the same Katherine he married in [[March 2013]].<ref name="JohnKyleVid">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aitxArbd0o John Kyle - Three Love Songs at Katherine and Cole's Wedding] (retrieved on 24 February 2014)</ref> Given that Cole mentioned an earlier wedding during his correspondence with Chris, it appears that Katherine is his second wife, unless the "wedding" in 2013 was actually a renewal of vows.<ref name="Email"/> His brother-in-law, John Kyle, sang at his wedding. John later commented on [[Message for John Kyle]], where he mentions Cole.

{{quote|He's a great guy. He's my brother in law, and he's never mentioned Chris to me. I think he's doing his best to distance himself from this. You all should too.|John Kyle<ref>[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref>}}

According to an article written by his friend, syndicated cartoonist {{w|Ted Rall}}, Cole once came close to death from {{w|Necrotizing fasciitis|necrotizing fasciitis}} after an ER nurse made a misdiagnosis,<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2014/10/06/commentary/world-commentary/emergency-rooms-live-gunshot-wounds/#.VR7L5vnF-So</ref> and believes that 2016 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders's rise can be attributed to the "failure of propaganda."<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2016/01/22/commentary/world-commentary/sanders-rise-fueled-by-the-failure-of-propaganda/#.Vq1dJrIrI8o</ref>
{{clear}}

Cole has co-hosted a free weekly podcast called LA GRANDE BOUFFE (THE BIG FEAST)<ref>https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/la-grande-bouffe-the-big-feast/id1120760479?mt=2</ref> since 23 April 2016.

In December 2017, Cole repeated his ''Toy Story'' trick by being the first critic to give ''{{w|Lady Bird (film)|Lady Bird}}'' a negative review, ruining its perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score from 196 previous reviewers. Cole added fuel to the firestorm of criticism he received by admitting to spoiling the film's score on purpose.<ref>https://thenextweb.com/opinion/2017/12/14/film-critic-spoiled-lady-birds-perfect-rotten-tomatoes-score-basically-admits-hes-troll/</ref>

On 30 September 2020, Cole allegedly sent flowers to Barb for her 79th birthday. Many people believe, however, that it wasn’t actually Cole, but a [[ween]] pretending to be him. After the flowers were received, Chris made a video, showing Barb’s gratitude for the flowers, and claiming that in Dimension C-197, Cole and Iron Man hang out a lot, and that he’ll get to meet Batman in New Jersey when the [[Dimensional Merge]] happens.

It remains unknown how Cole reacted to the news that Chris was committing [[Affair with Mother|incest]] with Barb, except for the fact that he stopped allowing [[Twitter]] users to reply to his tweets and deleted one tweet from [[July 2021]] which had been flooded with replies about incest.

==Biological father==
As stated above, Cole was kept in the dark about the identity of his true father. Jerry Harmon was Cole's stepfather and father figure for almost the entirety of his childhood.

According to Barb, the elusive Jack Dale Smithey was his biological father, whom she allegedly was married to before Cole was born.

At one point, Cole would make a trip to Richmond to get all of Barb's marriage certificates. As he suspected, there was no marriage certificate for a marriage to Jack Dale Smithey, nor Jerry Harmon. There was, however, one to a Ran Coleman Yeatts, whose middle name matched with Cole's first name. They divorced 2 months before he was born. In fact, he used to visit Cole as a "family friend."

Cole went even further and tracked Jack Dale Smithey down all the way to Florida, who confirmed Cole's suspicions. When Cole confronted Barb about the Jack revelations, she promptly hung up the phone.

While there is no definitive proof that Ran Coleman Yeatts is his biological father, such as a DNA test (he was dead by the time Cole found out), considering the similarities in their appearance and the timeline of Cole's birth, it can stand to reason that Ran is Cole's biological father.

That doesn't stop Barb and his [[slow in the minds|mentally stunted]] little brother from being in denial, however.

==Relationship with Barbara and Bob==
{{Quote|The crux of my problem with Barbara comes from two sources. The first is [[Bob]]'s bitter influence on her, which worked to separate our relationship just as Bob did with his own children with whom he has no association. In nearly 44 years of life, I have never met a meaner or more reprehensible {{w|Republican Party (United States)|Republican}} cur than Bob Chandler. I hope that you will e-mail me [[September 2011|when he dies]] so that I can celebrate. Our mutual hatred has never been a secret, and it points out Barbara's proclivity to isolate herself via scurrilous mates. The second and more compelling issue that permanently ruined my relationship with Barbara is the litany of lies she tells anyone who'll listen about the identity of my biological father and about her marriage history.|Cole Smithey on his complicated relationship with his biological mother and stepfather.<ref name="Email">[[Cole Smithey E-mails]]</ref>.}}
[[File:Bobcomes home copy.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A likely summary for Bob and Cole's relationship.]]
[[Image:0467-CWC18th20.jpg|thumb|Cole smiles alongside [[Barbara]] on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

Cole was not on good terms with [[Bob]] or [[Barbara]]. According to Cole, Bob worked his "bitter influence" on Barbara to separate her from Cole. He has "never met a meaner or more reprehensible Republican cur than Bob Chandler."<ref name="Email" /> In multiple emails to Chris, Cole asks to be informed when Bob dies so he can celebrate.

Barbara visited Cole only once in 27 years, whereas Cole had made a special effort to visit her several times. Cole's wife's family treats him more like family than his own. Chris has [[Message for John Kyle|complained]] that Cole is ignoring Barb's attempts to get in touch with him. It would seem that Cole has left his mother to her own devices. As the [[Financhu Crisis]] progressed, Barb has seemingly expressed interest in meeting Cole, although it's not clear if this is to try to mooch off of her son or if she wants to try to bond with him before she croaks.

Of course, Cole would do well not to bother with Chris and Barb's (dubious) pleas for a visit, given Barb's history of manipulation and dishonesty (such that he even once [[Cole Smithey E-mails|referred to her actions as "pathological behaviour"]]), not to mention her history of abusing him during his formative years.

Shortly after [[Bob_Chandler#Later_life.2C_poor_health_and_death|Bob's death]] on 6 [[September 2011]], a troll on [[/cow/|789chan]] took Cole's wish of knowing when his stepfather died, contacting him using the phone number he provided in his [[Cole Smithey E-mails|leaked emails]]. In spite of his vitriol towards Bob three years prior, he was apparently quite broken up by the news. While Cole was certainly upset at Bob, his reaction to Bob's actual death shows that he ultimately did sympathize with him. While no audio of this call has ever been released, its existence is confirmed by those who browsed the board at the time.<ref>[[CWCki Forums posts (other users)#Cole's reaction to Bob's death]]</ref><ref>http://archive.is/kHrWN A TinyChat thread posted days after Bob's death, confirming the call's existence.

==Relationship with Chris==
[[File:26 June 2016 Cole Smithey drawing.jpeg||thumb|left|200px|Depicted burning his money instead of giving it to Chris, as drawn by Chris in June 2016. Note in the picture it says "mother and [[Transgender|sister]]."]]

For much of his life, Cole has actually gotten along much better with Chris than with either Bob or Barb, and possibly better than with any of his other direct relatives. Then again, when you don't actually know ''who'' your paternal relatives are, you have to take what you can get.

Cole was not around when Chris was growing up. Being nineteen years older, he was in California making a life for himself. Cole said that Barbara and Bob neglected Chris for years with the [[abusive babysitter]], which suggests that he believes that Chris's muteness in early life was their fault. When he was eventually able to speak again around age seven, Chris visited Cole in San Francisco along with Barb.<ref>[[Rental House Tour#Time to go]]</ref> This was the only time Chris had ever been on an airplane for 35 years,<ref>[[Mumble 1]]</ref> the only time he had ever been to the West Coast of the United States and one of the few times that he has left [[Virginia]].

Cole's relationship with his family became somewhat closer after he moved back to the East Coast in 1996. He came to visit them in Virginia on various occasions, although they never visited him in New York. For New Year's Day [[1998]] Chris gave Cole a [[Lego]] Band Stand and wished him a "Rocking New Year." However, in [[1999]], on a [[Spanish]] exercise, Chris described "Cole the Beedrill" as ''muy feo'' (very ugly), suggesting relations had strained, probably because of Barb (although he may also have been referring to the aspect of the actual Pokémon species).<ref>[[Manchester High Leaks]]</ref> Nevertheless, Cole visited for Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday party]] in [[2000]]. Later in the same year, for Cole's 37th birthday, Chris made him ''A CD For Cole Smithey!''. Naturally, the present had little to do with Cole and everything to do with Chris, even featuring a picture of Chris on the cover.

[[Image:0468-CWC&JCS.jpg|thumb|300px|The half-brothers hold their hands the same way on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

The last time they set eyes on each other was at the 2004 Weston family Christmas party.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 27]]</ref><ref>[[Catherine#The_bowling_outing]]</ref>

In [[July 2007]], Chris sent an e-mail asking for Cole's vote in the [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa'' contest]]. In return, Cole asked Chris to find out the truth about his father from Barbara. The timing of this request was probably not a coincidence, as Ran Coleman Yeatts had died a month prior.<ref>[http://ssdi.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ United States Social Security Death Index]</ref> Chris did ask his mother about it, but she maintained her version of the story (It's unclear why Cole expected anything else). Chris was more interested in the ''PaRappa'' contest than his brother's plight, showing just how self-absorbed he truly is (though in Chris's defense, getting involved in an awkward quarrel about parentage is a pretty odd price for a simple upvote on a video). Chris's dismissive attitude only resulted in Cole becoming even more bitter towards both Chris and Barbara than he already was. Suffice to say, Cole did not vote for Chris. To date, these remain the last known communications between the half-brothers as Cole probably distanced himself even further from Chris since only a couple of months later, [[The GAMe PLACe#The GAMe PLACe Photograph|the GAMe PLACe photograph]] was posted onto 4chan, thus beginning Chris's infamy on the internet.

In a leaked e-mail sent to Jackie on 14 May 2011, Chris wrote that Cole "has had mental problems since he hit his head on a bus, and has taken it out heavily on our mother." Some argue the story could be a lie Barbara told Chris to explain Cole's bitterness towards her while masking the issue that actually caused it.

[[File:Cole and Others Miis.png|thumb|right|300px|Cole (far right) as a [[Sonichu Amiibo|Mii]] in one of Chris's [[Super Smash Bros. Videos]], ''Family Needs to appreciate Family'']]

In recent years, Chris has made numerous efforts to get in touch with Cole, to no avail. In [[October 2013]] he told his friend [[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails|Rebeckah]], "I have no confirmed or direct contact with him in NY; he doesn't respond to email, twitter feed, Facebook, YouTube, etcetera, either. So, I am most unable to reach him at all."<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> On 22 [[June 2013]], Chris attempted to contact Cole via video. He recorded a message directed to John Kyle,<ref name="Message">[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref> Cole's brother-in-law, who sang at his wedding (Kyle would later reveal that, until the video was brought to his attention by a troll, he had not even known that his sister's husband had a half-brother).<ref name="JohnKyleVid" /> Chris expressed anger at Cole for not inviting him and Barb to his wedding. He also claimed that relatives, including [[Jerry Harmon]] and [[Jack Dale Smithey]], had been lying to Cole about Barb, making him believe that Barb was abusive, when according to Chris, she's a good person.

In the same month, Chris tried to communicate with Cole on [[Twitter]],<ref>[[2009-2016 tweets#29 June 2013]]</ref> basically telling him to come back home so he could [[White_knights#Chris_cares_only_for_himself|dump his familial responsibilities on him]] and go on his [[Sweetheart Search]]. He also suggested that Cole had some mental/physical problems of his own ''(even talking down to him at one point)'' right before activating the "Playing for Sympathy" card, lamenting his time in jail.

In [[August 2015]], Chris [[August 2015 Facebook Posts#Please Take Care Of Barb So I Can Go Out And Have Sex With Hot Lesbians|tried yet again]] to reach out to Cole, this time through [[Facebook]], hoping that a flurry of hashtags would work their magic. In [[November 2015]] he returned to [[YouTube]] with a [[Family Needs to appreciate Family|video]] depiction of a battle in which Chris and his allies face off against Cole, [[David Alan Chandler|his other step-brother]], and his [[Carol Suzanne Chandler|step-sister]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'' "OUR Mother is Still Alive; I REALLY want you to make amends and get close, once again, to her before Her time runs out," he wrote in the description. The following day he arranged a [[Sonichu and Rosechu figure collection toy battle!|similar fight]] among his [[Amiibo]] figurines and angrily accused Cole of being possessed by the spirit of [[Count Graduon]]. He posted an image of his Cole Amiibo on Facebook. In this spat of postings Chris attempts to appear concerned about Cole not being around for their mother's twilight years, thinly veiling his [[Monthly Tugboat|real concerns]].

Chris has two explanations for this falling-out with his half-brother, both fed to him by Barb. First, Cole has been entirely misled about Barb's character by the lies of other family members. "She is the opposite of what hate they filled Cole's head with," Chris asserts.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> Second, Cole's "mental problems" caused by his childhood injury mean that he has "taken it out heavily on our mother."<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 26]]</ref> "Lord Knows What Else goes on through his head," Chris has concluded, demonstrating that more than anything else, Cole is almost entirely unknown to Chris. For the most part, the main trait Chris seems to be aware of regarding his half-brother is that he has a career and makes a living. This, in traditional Chris fashion, means opportunity and progressively his attempts to reach out have more and more focused on Cole financially supporting Chris and Barb, returning Chris to the idyllic balance he enjoyed with Bob as the responsible man in the house.

In [[June 2016]], Chris posted a Facebook rant about Cole alleging that he and his wife spend two thousand dollars a month on rent for an apartment "a few buildings down East 90th from Carnigee [''sic''] Hall" and that he once lived at Carnegie Hall itself.<ref>[[June 2016 Facebook posts]]</ref> In reality, [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hall|Carnegie Hall]] is not near East 90th Street, and nobody lives ''at'' Carnegie Hall—it's a concert hall, not an apartment building. East 90th Street actually passes through [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hill|Carnegie ''Hill'']], a neighborhood on Manhattan's Upper East Side. This lack of research didn't stop Chris from depicting his half-brother as having money to "[[Chris and hypocrisy|piss and burn]]" while simultaneously [[Lego|begging]] [[Transformers|him]] [[PlayStation 4|for]] [[Chris and money|money]].

In May 2017, Chris mocked Cole on Twitter, stating [[Chris and hypocrisy|"Oh my gosh, my half brother is suddenly begging for money now"]]. This was in response to Cole asking his fans to pledge money to him on Patreon in a since-deleted video, suggesting he has also [[Financhu Crisis|hit rock bottom]]. Chris said he would pledge to him, but he still hasn't apologized or made up with Barb. Ironically, Chris tried to pledge to him but Cole blocked him, making it clear once again that he really wanted nothing to do with his old life.<ref>[[CWCSonichu-NightStar2891 DMs]]</ref><ref>[[The Place chats - ProjectSNT and Opuscon789#Apologising to SNT for Redesign Rage]]</ref>

In December 2017, Chris wanted to drive to New York to confront Cole. He tried to channel his Sonichu power to conjure up Cole's address, but was unsuccessful and did not attempt to make the trip.<ref>[[Idea Guy Q&A]]</ref> [[Joshua Wise]] discouraged Chris from doing this, leading to him dropping the idea.

[[File:Certificate of Authenticity with Barb's signature.jpg|thumb|A certificate sent to anyone who bought Cole's stuff]]

Chris began offering pieces of Cole's belongings for sale via [[eBay]] in March 2018, mostly his comic books. He placed great value in the fact that these comic books belonged to Cole, supposedly seeing him as some sort of celebrity, even referring to him as his mantle "The World's Smartest Film Critic." He even went so far as to make certificates that confirmed that these comic books belonged to Cole.

On 30 [[September 2020]], Barb received a bouquet of flowers for her birthday, ostensibly from Cole (although it is more likely from a [[ween]]). Chris ([[Spirit possession#Sonichu|while roleplaying as Sonichu]]) recorded a video of Barb thanking Cole, before turning the camera back to himself and informing Cole that he (Cole) had been hanging out with various superheroes from Marvel and DC, and encouraging Cole to get back in contact with Chris via his publicly available cell phone number.<ref>[[To Cole Smithey, from Barb, and Sonichu (Prime)]]</ref>

==Cole in the comics==
Throughout the original run of [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']], Cole was referenced in the [[CWCipedia]] profile for [[Rosechu]] as "Professor Cole," assumed to be a version of Cole Smithey, listed as the one who gave [[Kel]] the {{w|Pichu|Pichu}} who would become Rosechu. Chris later marketed a custom Amiibo depicting Cole as a [[Jerkop]], seemingly foreshadowing his presence as a villain in the CWCville universe. It was not clear for several years whether the original "Professor Cole" character was [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|still canon]].

In ''[[Sonichu 7]]'', the comic version of Chris mentions Cole by his full name, Joseph Cole Smithey, to classmate Joseph Herring. This was later [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retconned]] to "Joe Cool" Smithey.

Cole finally appears in [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]] as, indeed, a Jerkop, brainwashed by [[Count Graduon]]. [[Reldnahc]] uses Cole to "distract [Chris] with family" in order to get the drop on him. He is bizarrely depicted as a gray-haired, mustached old man with a trilby. Comic Chris immediately identifies him as his brother [[Chris and writing|despite Cole never appearing in the comic before]], made all the more confusing by the same battle also featuring Chris's imaginary [[Crystal Weston Chandler (sister)|sister]] and [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc|evil twin]].

In 2019, Chris confirmed that Cole was the Pokémon Professor during 2003, but stated his "methods and ideals were varied," and his work was "faltering" by 2005, leading to his demotion in favour of a smoking-hot graduate whose body Chris describes in vivid detail. A year later, he "quite" and moved to New York to become a full-time movie reviewer.<ref>[[April 2019 social media posts#CWCVille's Pokemon Professor]]</ref>

'''Joseph Cole Smithey''' (born 24 July 1963)<ref>''[[:Image:046-ColeCDIn.jpg|A CD For Cole Smithey!]]''</ref> is [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]]'s maternal half-brother, [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]]'s first son, and lone ([[Bob Chandler|living]]) escapee of the [[Chandler Family Tree|Casa de Chandler]] prior to Chris's [[arrest]]. Despite sharing genetics with his [[Christian Weston Chandler|mentally challenged brother]] and being raised and abused by the same [[Barb|horrible mother]], Cole leads a relatively normal life. [[Cole Smithey E-mails|Cole's emails to Chris]] revealed a lot of information about the Chandler family.

==Life==

===Childhood===
Cole was born on 24 July 1963, to mother [[Barbara Chandler]], and father [[Ran Coleman Yeatts]], who divorced Barbara before Cole was born. Barb has claimed that Jack Dale Smithey was Cole's father, who she claimed to have married; however, their relationship is shrouded in mystery, and Cole has spent years trying to figure out if Barbara was even actually married to Jack. He was mainly raised by Barbara and her later husband, stepfather Jerry Harmon. Harmon used to perform as a magician, and Cole frequently performed alongside him in his stage act entitled [[Operation Snowball]]. As a kid, he got into music, film and comics as a hobby.<ref>[https://cheunderground.site/there-to-here-cole-smithey-smartest-film-critic-in-the-world/#more-10309 Cole Smithey bio interview from Che Underground]</ref> He stated he was a big fan of [[wikipedia:Kiss (band)|Kiss]], and attended drum lessons at the age of 12. He saw his first R-rated movie, ''{{w|The Big Boss|Fists of Fury}}'', at the age of 8.

Cole has stated that his childhood was fraught with abuse. In [[Cole Smithey E-mails|e-mails exchanged with his half-brother Chris]], Cole particularly singled out Barbara for her treatment of him, stating she would abuse him via methods like bare spankings and cold showers. He also called out Jerry for his treatment of him as well, saying he'd join in with Barb and her abuse of Cole; however, he has been more charitable about Jerry in other accounts, so it's more than likely that Barb treated him the worst. In his article [[Saturday Night Special]], Cole recounted an incident where Barbara fired a loaded gun at a steel door to ward off a burglar, the resulting ricochet of which almost struck young Cole in the head. These events have obviously had a lasting impression on him, and almost certainly contributed to him eventually leaving the care of Barbara in 1980.

===California (1980-96)===
Cole left home in 1980 at the age of 16 or 17 and moved to California.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref> Not long after moving, he had a sinus infection which came close to killing him.<ref>[[Rental House Tour]]</ref> This was the second of at least three near-death encounters in his life. Cole's LinkedIn profile states that he attended [[wikipedia:San Diego State University|San Diego State University]] from 1981 and earned a Dramatic Art degree in Music in 1984.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> While at college he was the drummer for a [[wikipedia:Poway, California|Poway]]-based punk rock band called "The Rockin' Dogs" which played shows in the San Diego area. The band was formed in 1981 and broke up in 1985.<ref>[http://www.sandiegoreader.com/bands/rockin-dogs/ The Rockin' Dogs | San Diego Reader]</ref>

Cole later moved to Northern California. At some point, he attended [[wikipedia:Hartnell College|Hartnell College]] and [[wikipedia:San Francisco City College|San Francisco City College]], where he pursued a similar course of study. His LinkedIn profile does not mention him receiving a degree from either school.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> In July 1989, the Chandler household, including Chris, flew to San Francisco to celebrate Cole's 26th birthday. This was the only time they came to visit him during his entire 16-year tenure in California. By 1994, still in San Francisco, Cole was doing shows as "Cole Blooded" and had apparently shifted to the guitar.

In 1996 he moved to New York.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref>

===Present===

Cole currently lives in Manhattan and is a film critic who is featured on Rotten Tomatoes.<ref>http://www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/cole-smithey/</ref> He was mentioned in ''Time'' magazine for being the first critic to give a negative review to ''Toy Story 3'', breaking the ''Toy Story'' franchise's string of perfect scores on RT.<ref>http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/06/19/can-147-critics-be-wrong-meet-the-two-pundits-who-trashed-toy-story-3/</ref> Several years later, in an interview with Arthur Spatchcock, Chris stated that he disagreed with his brother's review even though he hadn't seen the film.

Cole occasionally hosts [[eBay]] auctions for the winning bidder to spend a night with him drinking craft beer at his wife's bar and talking about film, proving that, despite one half-brother being a pretentious wannabe hipster douchebag and the other being a socially-stunted mentally-ill manchild, they both share the same [[Chris and his ego|bloated ego]].<ref>http://www.ebay.com/itm/Drink-Craft-Beer-in-NYC-with-Film-Critic-Cole-Smithey-/291052352033?hash=item43c4127221</ref>

He brands himself as "The Smartest Film Critic in the World." (A title that the late, esteemed film critic {{w|Roger Ebert}} once mocked.<ref>http://www.colesmithey.com/filmblog/2009/04/my-dialogue-with-roger.html</ref>) Cole regularly posts his reviews to YouTube, but his videos have hilariously low view counts, rarely more than a few hundred per video and sometimes not even more than a few ''dozen'', even on reviews of well-known films. Ironically, the various videos Chris posted to YouTube over the years are literally thousands of times more popular than those of his relatively more successful brother. It probably doesn't help matters that Cole Smithey's videos have rather low production values, and negative reviews of well-received films (like ''Toy Story 3'' and ''Lady Bird'', which we will get to). On a sidenote, he also considers [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|''Freddy Got Fingered'']] (a film often considered to be one of the worst of all time) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JUuAhFVlk4 to be "Classic Cinema"].

By [[March 2007]], Cole was in a relationship with a woman named Katherine (no, not [[Catherine|her]]).<ref name="Email" /> This is most likely the same Katherine he married in [[March 2013]].<ref name="JohnKyleVid">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aitxArbd0o John Kyle - Three Love Songs at Katherine and Cole's Wedding] (retrieved on 24 February 2014)</ref> Given that Cole mentioned an earlier wedding during his correspondence with Chris, it appears that Katherine is his second wife, unless the "wedding" in 2013 was actually a renewal of vows.<ref name="Email"/> His brother-in-law, John Kyle, sang at his wedding. John later commented on [[Message for John Kyle]], where he mentions Cole.

{{quote|He's a great guy. He's my brother in law, and he's never mentioned Chris to me. I think he's doing his best to distance himself from this. You all should too.|John Kyle<ref>[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref>}}

According to an article written by his friend, syndicated cartoonist {{w|Ted Rall}}, Cole once came close to death from {{w|Necrotizing fasciitis|necrotizing fasciitis}} after an ER nurse made a misdiagnosis,<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2014/10/06/commentary/world-commentary/emergency-rooms-live-gunshot-wounds/#.VR7L5vnF-So</ref> and believes that 2016 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders's rise can be attributed to the "failure of propaganda."<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2016/01/22/commentary/world-commentary/sanders-rise-fueled-by-the-failure-of-propaganda/#.Vq1dJrIrI8o</ref>
{{clear}}

Cole has co-hosted a free weekly podcast called LA GRANDE BOUFFE (THE BIG FEAST)<ref>https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/la-grande-bouffe-the-big-feast/id1120760479?mt=2</ref> since 23 April 2016.

In December 2017, Cole repeated his ''Toy Story'' trick by being the first critic to give ''{{w|Lady Bird (film)|Lady Bird}}'' a negative review, ruining its perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score from 196 previous reviewers. Cole added fuel to the firestorm of criticism he received by admitting to spoiling the film's score on purpose.<ref>https://thenextweb.com/opinion/2017/12/14/film-critic-spoiled-lady-birds-perfect-rotten-tomatoes-score-basically-admits-hes-troll/</ref>

On 30 September 2020, Cole allegedly sent flowers to Barb for her 79th birthday. Many people believe, however, that it wasn’t actually Cole, but a [[ween]] pretending to be him. After the flowers were received, Chris made a video, showing Barb’s gratitude for the flowers, and claiming that in Dimension C-197, Cole and Iron Man hang out a lot, and that he’ll get to meet Batman in New Jersey when the [[Dimensional Merge]] happens.

It remains unknown how Cole reacted to the news that Chris was committing [[Affair with Mother|incest]] with Barb, except for the fact that he stopped allowing [[Twitter]] users to reply to his tweets and deleted one tweet from [[July 2021]] which had been flooded with replies about incest.

==Biological father==
As stated above, Cole was kept in the dark about the identity of his true father. Jerry Harmon was Cole's stepfather and father figure for almost the entirety of his childhood.

According to Barb, the elusive Jack Dale Smithey was his biological father, whom she allegedly was married to before Cole was born.

At one point, Cole would make a trip to Richmond to get all of Barb's marriage certificates. As he suspected, there was no marriage certificate for a marriage to Jack Dale Smithey, nor Jerry Harmon. There was, however, one to a Ran Coleman Yeatts, whose middle name matched with Cole's first name. They divorced 2 months before he was born. In fact, he used to visit Cole as a "family friend."

Cole went even further and tracked Jack Dale Smithey down all the way to Florida, who confirmed Cole's suspicions. When Cole confronted Barb about the Jack revelations, she promptly hung up the phone.

While there is no definitive proof that Ran Coleman Yeatts is his biological father, such as a DNA test (he was dead by the time Cole found out), considering the similarities in their appearance and the timeline of Cole's birth, it can stand to reason that Ran is Cole's biological father.

That doesn't stop Barb and his [[slow in the minds|mentally stunted]] little brother from being in denial, however.

==Relationship with Barbara and Bob==
{{Quote|The crux of my problem with Barbara comes from two sources. The first is [[Bob]]'s bitter influence on her, which worked to separate our relationship just as Bob did with his own children with whom he has no association. In nearly 44 years of life, I have never met a meaner or more reprehensible {{w|Republican Party (United States)|Republican}} cur than Bob Chandler. I hope that you will e-mail me [[September 2011|when he dies]] so that I can celebrate. Our mutual hatred has never been a secret, and it points out Barbara's proclivity to isolate herself via scurrilous mates. The second and more compelling issue that permanently ruined my relationship with Barbara is the litany of lies she tells anyone who'll listen about the identity of my biological father and about her marriage history.|Cole Smithey on his complicated relationship with his biological mother and stepfather.<ref name="Email">[[Cole Smithey E-mails]]</ref>.}}
[[File:Bobcomes home copy.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A likely summary for Bob and Cole's relationship.]]
[[Image:0467-CWC18th20.jpg|thumb|Cole smiles alongside [[Barbara]] on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

Cole was not on good terms with [[Bob]] or [[Barbara]]. According to Cole, Bob worked his "bitter influence" on Barbara to separate her from Cole. He has "never met a meaner or more reprehensible Republican cur than Bob Chandler."<ref name="Email" /> In multiple emails to Chris, Cole asks to be informed when Bob dies so he can celebrate.

Barbara visited Cole only once in 27 years, whereas Cole had made a special effort to visit her several times. Cole's wife's family treats him more like family than his own. Chris has [[Message for John Kyle|complained]] that Cole is ignoring Barb's attempts to get in touch with him. It would seem that Cole has left his mother to her own devices. As the [[Financhu Crisis]] progressed, Barb has seemingly expressed interest in meeting Cole, although it's not clear if this is to try to mooch off of her son or if she wants to try to bond with him before she croaks.

Of course, Cole would do well not to bother with Chris and Barb's (dubious) pleas for a visit, given Barb's history of manipulation and dishonesty (such that he even once [[Cole Smithey E-mails|referred to her actions as "pathological behaviour"]]), not to mention her history of abusing him during his formative years.

Shortly after [[Bob_Chandler#Later_life.2C_poor_health_and_death|Bob's death]] on 6 [[September 2011]], a troll on [[/cow/|789chan]] took Cole's wish of knowing when his stepfather died, contacting him using the phone number he provided in his [[Cole Smithey E-mails|leaked emails]]. In spite of his vitriol towards Bob three years prior, he was apparently quite broken up by the news. While Cole was certainly upset at Bob, his reaction to Bob's actual death shows that he ultimately did sympathize with him. While no audio of this call has ever been released, its existence is confirmed by those who browsed the board at the time.<ref>[[CWCki Forums posts (other users)#Cole's reaction to Bob's death]]</ref><ref>http://archive.is/kHrWN A TinyChat thread posted days after Bob's death, confirming the call's existence.

==Relationship with Chris==
[[File:26 June 2016 Cole Smithey drawing.jpeg||thumb|left|200px|Depicted burning his money instead of giving it to Chris, as drawn by Chris in June 2016. Note in the picture it says "mother and [[Transgender|sister]]."]]

For much of his life, Cole has actually gotten along much better with Chris than with either Bob or Barb, and possibly better than with any of his other direct relatives. Then again, when you don't actually know ''who'' your paternal relatives are, you have to take what you can get.

Cole was not around when Chris was growing up. Being nineteen years older, he was in California making a life for himself. Cole said that Barbara and Bob neglected Chris for years with the [[abusive babysitter]], which suggests that he believes that Chris's muteness in early life was their fault. When he was eventually able to speak again around age seven, Chris visited Cole in San Francisco along with Barb.<ref>[[Rental House Tour#Time to go]]</ref> This was the only time Chris had ever been on an airplane for 35 years,<ref>[[Mumble 1]]</ref> the only time he had ever been to the West Coast of the United States and one of the few times that he has left [[Virginia]].

Cole's relationship with his family became somewhat closer after he moved back to the East Coast in 1996. He came to visit them in Virginia on various occasions, although they never visited him in New York. For New Year's Day [[1998]] Chris gave Cole a [[Lego]] Band Stand and wished him a "Rocking New Year." However, in [[1999]], on a [[Spanish]] exercise, Chris described "Cole the Beedrill" as ''muy feo'' (very ugly), suggesting relations had strained, probably because of Barb (although he may also have been referring to the aspect of the actual Pokémon species).<ref>[[Manchester High Leaks]]</ref> Nevertheless, Cole visited for Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday party]] in [[2000]]. Later in the same year, for Cole's 37th birthday, Chris made him ''A CD For Cole Smithey!''. Naturally, the present had little to do with Cole and everything to do with Chris, even featuring a picture of Chris on the cover.

[[Image:0468-CWC&JCS.jpg|thumb|300px|The half-brothers hold their hands the same way on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

The last time they set eyes on each other was at the 2004 Weston family Christmas party.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 27]]</ref><ref>[[Catherine#The_bowling_outing]]</ref>

In [[July 2007]], Chris sent an e-mail asking for Cole's vote in the [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa'' contest]]. In return, Cole asked Chris to find out the truth about his father from Barbara. The timing of this request was probably not a coincidence, as Ran Coleman Yeatts had died a month prior.<ref>[http://ssdi.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ United States Social Security Death Index]</ref> Chris did ask his mother about it, but she maintained her version of the story (It's unclear why Cole expected anything else). Chris was more interested in the ''PaRappa'' contest than his brother's plight, showing just how self-absorbed he truly is (though in Chris's defense, getting involved in an awkward quarrel about parentage is a pretty odd price for a simple upvote on a video). Chris's dismissive attitude only resulted in Cole becoming even more bitter towards both Chris and Barbara than he already was. Suffice to say, Cole did not vote for Chris. To date, these remain the last known communications between the half-brothers as Cole probably distanced himself even further from Chris since only a couple of months later, [[The GAMe PLACe#The GAMe PLACe Photograph|the GAMe PLACe photograph]] was posted onto 4chan, thus beginning Chris's infamy on the internet.

In a leaked e-mail sent to Jackie on 14 May 2011, Chris wrote that Cole "has had mental problems since he hit his head on a bus, and has taken it out heavily on our mother." Some argue the story could be a lie Barbara told Chris to explain Cole's bitterness towards her while masking the issue that actually caused it.

[[File:Cole and Others Miis.png|thumb|right|300px|Cole (far right) as a [[Sonichu Amiibo|Mii]] in one of Chris's [[Super Smash Bros. Videos]], ''Family Needs to appreciate Family'']]

In recent years, Chris has made numerous efforts to get in touch with Cole, to no avail. In [[October 2013]] he told his friend [[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails|Rebeckah]], "I have no confirmed or direct contact with him in NY; he doesn't respond to email, twitter feed, Facebook, YouTube, etcetera, either. So, I am most unable to reach him at all."<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> On 22 [[June 2013]], Chris attempted to contact Cole via video. He recorded a message directed to John Kyle,<ref name="Message">[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref> Cole's brother-in-law, who sang at his wedding (Kyle would later reveal that, until the video was brought to his attention by a troll, he had not even known that his sister's husband had a half-brother).<ref name="JohnKyleVid" /> Chris expressed anger at Cole for not inviting him and Barb to his wedding. He also claimed that relatives, including [[Jerry Harmon]] and [[Jack Dale Smithey]], had been lying to Cole about Barb, making him believe that Barb was abusive, when according to Chris, she's a good person.

In the same month, Chris tried to communicate with Cole on [[Twitter]],<ref>[[2009-2016 tweets#29 June 2013]]</ref> basically telling him to come back home so he could [[White_knights#Chris_cares_only_for_himself|dump his familial responsibilities on him]] and go on his [[Sweetheart Search]]. He also suggested that Cole had some mental/physical problems of his own ''(even talking down to him at one point)'' right before activating the "Playing for Sympathy" card, lamenting his time in jail.

In [[August 2015]], Chris [[August 2015 Facebook Posts#Please Take Care Of Barb So I Can Go Out And Have Sex With Hot Lesbians|tried yet again]] to reach out to Cole, this time through [[Facebook]], hoping that a flurry of hashtags would work their magic. In [[November 2015]] he returned to [[YouTube]] with a [[Family Needs to appreciate Family|video]] depiction of a battle in which Chris and his allies face off against Cole, [[David Alan Chandler|his other step-brother]], and his [[Carol Suzanne Chandler|step-sister]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'' "OUR Mother is Still Alive; I REALLY want you to make amends and get close, once again, to her before Her time runs out," he wrote in the description. The following day he arranged a [[Sonichu and Rosechu figure collection toy battle!|similar fight]] among his [[Amiibo]] figurines and angrily accused Cole of being possessed by the spirit of [[Count Graduon]]. He posted an image of his Cole Amiibo on Facebook. In this spat of postings Chris attempts to appear concerned about Cole not being around for their mother's twilight years, thinly veiling his [[Monthly Tugboat|real concerns]].

Chris has two explanations for this falling-out with his half-brother, both fed to him by Barb. First, Cole has been entirely misled about Barb's character by the lies of other family members. "She is the opposite of what hate they filled Cole's head with," Chris asserts.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> Second, Cole's "mental problems" caused by his childhood injury mean that he has "taken it out heavily on our mother."<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 26]]</ref> "Lord Knows What Else goes on through his head," Chris has concluded, demonstrating that more than anything else, Cole is almost entirely unknown to Chris. For the most part, the main trait Chris seems to be aware of regarding his half-brother is that he has a career and makes a living. This, in traditional Chris fashion, means opportunity and progressively his attempts to reach out have more and more focused on Cole financially supporting Chris and Barb, returning Chris to the idyllic balance he enjoyed with Bob as the responsible man in the house.

In [[June 2016]], Chris posted a Facebook rant about Cole alleging that he and his wife spend two thousand dollars a month on rent for an apartment "a few buildings down East 90th from Carnigee [''sic''] Hall" and that he once lived at Carnegie Hall itself.<ref>[[June 2016 Facebook posts]]</ref> In reality, [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hall|Carnegie Hall]] is not near East 90th Street, and nobody lives ''at'' Carnegie Hall—it's a concert hall, not an apartment building. East 90th Street actually passes through [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hill|Carnegie ''Hill'']], a neighborhood on Manhattan's Upper East Side. This lack of research didn't stop Chris from depicting his half-brother as having money to "[[Chris and hypocrisy|piss and burn]]" while simultaneously [[Lego|begging]] [[Transformers|him]] [[PlayStation 4|for]] [[Chris and money|money]].

In May 2017, Chris mocked Cole on Twitter, stating [[Chris and hypocrisy|"Oh my gosh, my half brother is suddenly begging for money now"]]. This was in response to Cole asking his fans to pledge money to him on Patreon in a since-deleted video, suggesting he has also [[Financhu Crisis|hit rock bottom]]. Chris said he would pledge to him, but he still hasn't apologized or made up with Barb. Ironically, Chris tried to pledge to him but Cole blocked him, making it clear once again that he really wanted nothing to do with his old life.<ref>[[CWCSonichu-NightStar2891 DMs]]</ref><ref>[[The Place chats - ProjectSNT and Opuscon789#Apologising to SNT for Redesign Rage]]</ref>

In December 2017, Chris wanted to drive to New York to confront Cole. He tried to channel his Sonichu power to conjure up Cole's address, but was unsuccessful and did not attempt to make the trip.<ref>[[Idea Guy Q&A]]</ref> [[Joshua Wise]] discouraged Chris from doing this, leading to him dropping the idea.

[[File:Certificate of Authenticity with Barb's signature.jpg|thumb|A certificate sent to anyone who bought Cole's stuff]]

Chris began offering pieces of Cole's belongings for sale via [[eBay]] in March 2018, mostly his comic books. He placed great value in the fact that these comic books belonged to Cole, supposedly seeing him as some sort of celebrity, even referring to him as his mantle "The World's Smartest Film Critic." He even went so far as to make certificates that confirmed that these comic books belonged to Cole.

On 30 [[September 2020]], Barb received a bouquet of flowers for her birthday, ostensibly from Cole (although it is more likely from a [[ween]]). Chris ([[Spirit possession#Sonichu|while roleplaying as Sonichu]]) recorded a video of Barb thanking Cole, before turning the camera back to himself and informing Cole that he (Cole) had been hanging out with various superheroes from Marvel and DC, and encouraging Cole to get back in contact with Chris via his publicly available cell phone number.<ref>[[To Cole Smithey, from Barb, and Sonichu (Prime)]]</ref>

==Cole in the comics==
Throughout the original run of [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']], Cole was referenced in the [[CWCipedia]] profile for [[Rosechu]] as "Professor Cole," assumed to be a version of Cole Smithey, listed as the one who gave [[Kel]] the {{w|Pichu|Pichu}} who would become Rosechu. Chris later marketed a custom Amiibo depicting Cole as a [[Jerkop]], seemingly foreshadowing his presence as a villain in the CWCville universe. It was not clear for several years whether the original "Professor Cole" character was [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|still canon]].

In ''[[Sonichu 7]]'', the comic version of Chris mentions Cole by his full name, Joseph Cole Smithey, to classmate Joseph Herring. This was later [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retconned]] to "Joe Cool" Smithey.

Cole finally appears in [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]] as, indeed, a Jerkop, brainwashed by [[Count Graduon]]. [[Reldnahc]] uses Cole to "distract [Chris] with family" in order to get the drop on him. He is bizarrely depicted as a gray-haired, mustached old man with a trilby. Comic Chris immediately identifies him as his brother [[Chris and writing|despite Cole never appearing in the comic before]], made all the more confusing by the same battle also featuring Chris's imaginary [[Crystal Weston Chandler (sister)|sister]] and [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc|evil twin]].

In 2019, Chris confirmed that Cole was the Pokémon Professor during 2003, but stated his "methods and ideals were varied," and his work was "faltering" by 2005, leading to his demotion in favour of a smoking-hot graduate whose body Chris describes in vivid detail. A year later, he "quite" and moved to New York to become a full-time movie reviewer.<ref>[[April 2019 social media posts#CWCVille's Pokemon Professor]]</ref>

Autism papers

2025-12-23T07:58:59Z

KennyOfHrub:

The '''autism papers''' are some of the most valued [[Relics of Fail|Holy Fails]], in which the exact nature of [[Chris]]'s psychiatric [[Chris and psychology|diagnosis]] is revealed by an objective source (as opposed to Chris's revisionist account of his life), and the extent of his [[autism]] is explained.

To date, only an intake survey from [[2004]] is available, resulting from Chris's mandated visit to a psychiatrist after flipping out while attending [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|PVCC]]. His original, earlier papers, dating to when Chris was five or six years old, remain locked away in [[Bob Chandler|Bob's]] filing cabinet. Ivy discovered that it is impossible for Chris to recover them himself, as Bob kept the keys on his person at all times. As a result of Bob's death, the keys are presumably in Barbara's possession now. Either way, these autism papers can be considered lost Holy Fails, due to Chris's paranoid nature and the fact that he'd actually have to put effort into finding them, not to mention that they may have been destroyed in [[Destruction Of Chris's House|the house fire in January 2014]].

Chris was scheduled to receive a new mental health evaluation between August and November 2021, as part of his [[Jail Saga|court hearings]] for [[Affair with Mother|incest]]. The results of this, or if it has taken place at all, are currently unknown.

==Background==
In '''November 2009''', Solid Chris e-mailed [[Kacey]] these papers to show that he is a [[Honest Content|TRUE AND HONEST]] autistic. Kacey shared these papers with her new husband, [[Liquid Chris]], who in turn distributed them online. The papers are presented here in their original form, edited only for wiki styling and linking.

A number of passages of this copy have been outlined in yellow highlighting marker. Most of them either describe Chris's search for a [[sweetheart]] or contain some of the evaluator's more favorable judgments of Chris's mental state. A few are passages that confirm the diagnosis of Chris's autism.

To date, this is the only independent, professional evaluation of Chris's condition available.

Several observers have pointed out that these documents seem to paint a surprisingly rosy picture of Chris's behavior and mental state. It helps to keep a few factors in mind, though:

* The survey took place in [[2004]] — at the time, Chris still attended school (at least until the suspension), went outside on a regular basis, was yet to be banned from his [[The GAMe PLACe|favorite hangout]], and received at least a modest amount of social interaction. He was probably in a genuinely better state of mind at the time of the exam, as opposed to Chris after years of isolation and staying indoors for days at a time.

* This survey also predates all of Chris's major run-ins with [[Chris and the law|the law]]. At the time, there was no strong evidence to suggest Chris had the potential for violent acts and merely came off as a socially awkward outcast.

* Despite being famous for his wild confrontations with authority, Chris is in fact extremely deferent in the face of authority figures so long as he doesn't think they're a hindrance to him (consider the opening moments of the [[Father Call]]).

* To the uninitiated, his [[Love Quest]] can come across as rather sweet in an idiotic way, the desperate actions of a socially awkward but basically sincere and harmless person – after all, the majority of people want love.

* The survey was based on a fairly brief encounter with Chris by a psych''iatr''ist. Deeper autism evaluations are generally the job of a clinical psych''olog''ist, and they can involve multiple lengthy sessions. The psychiatric diagnostic process is much quicker than the psychological process, relying more on simple checklists than a battery of tests.

* The mental status exam was cursory – full autism evaluations are usually conducted alongside thorough IQ tests, while Chris's evaluator used the much quicker Folstein test. Most people, even those with mental illnesses, can still get a perfect Folstein score.

As trolls have learned over the years, he gets much worse with regular exposure.

 Patient's Name: Christian Chandler
 UVA History #: 003 79 67
 Date of Birth: 02/24/[[1982|82]]
 Date of Intake: 11/05/[[2004|04]]
 [[Wikipedia:Residency (medicine)|Resident Physician]]: Jeff Raynor, M.D., Resident in Psychiatric Medicine
 Attending Physician: Zachariah C. Dameron, III, M.D.

====IDENTIFYING STATEMENT:====

Mr. Chandler is a 22-year-old SWM with a history of [[autism]], who was referred for psychiatric evaluation following his recent suspension from community college.

====HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:====

Mr. Chandler says that since finishing high school and starting at [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|PVCC]] in the year [[2000]], he has had an [[Love Quest|increasing interest]] in a [[Boyfriend-free girl|female companion]]. His attempts at this ultimately led to his suspension from college. His attempt took the form of a [[Attraction sign|sign]], which he placed next to himself while sitting in the lobby at Piedmont. The sign was a list of qualifications that a potential girlfriend would have. He said that he has been very frustrated by his inability to find a girlfriend and he suffers from "[[Noviophobia|novio phobia]]." This refers to his frustration that females often tell him that they already have a boyfriend. While he does have [[Chris and sex|physical attraction]] towards females, his primary frustration is with his lack of companionship. He had also carried his sign in the [[Fashion Square Mall]]. This unfortunately led to him being detained by [[Jerkop|the police]] and placed in handcuffs briefly, although he was not taken to jail.

During the interview, the patient provided the examiner with a number of examples of his [[Chris and art|artwork]]. Much of this artwork was centered on his interest in a video game, [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], as well as [[Pokémon|Pokeman [''sic'']]] cartoon characters.

The patient's parents provided additional historical information and documentation as to the reasons for his suspension from PVCC. According to his parents, there have been a number of incidents which led to his suspension. They feel strongly that the suspension was unwarranted and did not take into account the patient's developmental limitations. One such occurrence was during an interaction with [[Chris and Race#Black_people|African American]] classmates. These young women were questioning the patient regarding his search for a girlfriend, at which point he told them they could not be his girlfriend because they were not white. This was perceived as racially insensitive, although from the patient's perspective, he was merely pointing out they did not meet his standard criteria for a [[gal pal|female companion]]. He says that he was unaware at the time that there was any other connotation to this. Various guidance counselors at the college were working with the patient to help him adjust to the college setting. They had apparently asked him to stop carrying the sign around campus, per the patient, one of these counselors actually physically destroyed the sign to prevent this behavior. He left an angry note with [[Mary Lee Walsh|Ms. Walsh]], who is in administration. He provided a copy of this note, and it is contained in the chart. It did not specifically [''continues on Page 2'']

[''Continuing from Page 1''] [[Death threats|threaten her]], but expressed his dislike of her and communicated an [[Creepy_stare|"intimidating glare"]] in a pictorial fashion. Based on the letter sent to him by the college, this was interpreted by the administrator as being a form of harassment. There were several hearings held on the matter and ultimately the patient was suspended. The criteria that have been set for his return to Piedmont included [[Chris and anger|anger]] management classes, psychological evaluation, and "social skills counseling." He has already undergone psychological evaluation by Robin Hawkes at the Center of Learning Potential. The recommendation concerning Mr. Chandler's [[heart level|emotional status]] is that he seek psychiatric and psychological treatment. The psychologist felt that counseling and medication would possibly address his obsessive thought patterns and assist him with social skills. She also recommended anger management training.

====PAST PSYCHIATRIC HISTORY:====

Mr. Chandler was diagnosed with autism around age five or six. He has never had ongoing treatment by a psychiatrist, but has been treated in the past by [[Wikipedia:Imipramine|Imipramine]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|for unclear reason]] [''sic'']. He has never been in a psychiatric hospital and has no history of violent or self-injurious behavior. He has no history of [[Affair with Mother|sexual acting out]].

===[[Chris and health|PAST MEDICAL HISTORY]]:===

The patient has not had significant medical problems other than his autism. He has no history of head injury, loss of consciousness, seizures, CNS infections, stroke.

====MEDICATIONS:====

:[[Wikipedia:Paxil|Paxil]] 20 mgs. q. day, which the patient has been on for the past four years.

:Herbal supplements/over-the-counter - none.

====ALLERGIES:====

None known.

====SUBSTANCE ABUSE:====

The patient does not use [[Tobacky|tobacco]] or [[My Coke Rewards|caffeine]]. He does not [[Alcohol|drink]] and he does not use illicit substances.

====SOCIAL HISTORY:====

The patient was born in the [[Ruckersville, VA|Ruckersville]] area. He had a normal prenatal period. He walked at normal age but was delayed in his language ability. He had some high frequency hearing loss early on. Per his parents, he did not speak until the age of seven. At around age twelve, he began to develop more effective communication skills. He apparently used the closed captioning on the television to learn how to read. There was conflict over where he would have his schooling. The school system or the Department of Social Services had attempted to place the patient in a special school. His parents were very adamant that he be in a mainstream high school. In order to maintain custody of the patient, [[Bob Chandler|the patient's father]] moved them to [[Richmond]], Virginia. He went to a regular middle school and [[Manchester High School|high school]] while there. He was able to function well academically and graduated from high school in regular classes. He had a number of friends through middle and high school.

November 5, 2004

====FAMILY HISTORY:====

The patient's [[Bob|father]] has significant [[Wikipedia:Coronary artery disease|Coronary Artery Disease]] and recently had a bypass graph done. He is 77-years-old and is retired engineer from General Electric. [[Barb|His mother]] is 65-years-old and worked in the past at a local bank. Neither of his parents or any other family members are known to have any psychiatric disease. The patient has a maternal cousin who has severe autism, although there are no other family members with developmental delays.

====MENTAL STATUS EXAM:====

The patient is a mildly [[Obesity|overweight]], white male, wearing blue jeans and a [[Chris and fashion|shirt]]. He was also wearing a makeshift necklace that has [[Medallions#Prototype|a large plastic medallion in the shape of a Pokeman [''sic''] characters head]]. He also had a number of “shrinky dink” decorations attached to this necklace. He had a large backpack that he carried with him and had a [[Scrapbook of Fail|notebook containing a large number of drawings]]. He showed the examiner an extensive set of [[Card games|trading cards]], which he created for his video game characters. The artwork was hand drawn and then scanned into the [[Computers|computer]] for transfer to the card. He had a number of statistics and other information on the backside of the card. The patient pointed out a series of cards that were of a video game theme, but depicted him in various difficult situations in which he has dealt with recently. He also presented the examiner with his [[business card]] containing a link to [[Sonichu.net|his website]]. His speech was somewhat nasal with frequent, awkward laughing during his sentences. His speech was fluent. His responses were appropriate to the questions posed to him. Overall, the volume of his speech was slightly elevated, although his tone was generally pleasant and almost jovial. His thought processes were linear and logical. He was somewhat concrete, especially regarding social interactions. He seemed to have good insight into his limitations. As suggested above, his thought content was largely based on his interest in Pokeman [''sic''] and sonic [''sic''] cartoons. He did not express any delusional thought content. There was perhaps an obsessional quality to [[Love Quest|his preoccupation with finding a girlfriend]], although he did not feel that this was a problem for him. He did not voice any perceptual disturbances and did not seem to be responding to internal stimuli. His impulse control appeared to be good during the interview and his judgment was fair, although social judgment was likely somewhat limited.

[[Wikipedia:Mini-mental state examination|Folstein score]] was 30/30 with his sentence being, “[[Random-access humor|Uncle Spunky is a really funky monkey.]]”

====IMPRESSION:====
Mr. Chandler is a 22-year-old man with a history of developmental delays and autism. Despite these limitations, he seems to have been [[Honor Roll|quite successful in maximizing his academic abilities]]. Despite his significant delays in language, he has over the years developed relatively affective [''sic''] communication skills. He is left, however, with a severe degree of social awkwardness and seems to have good insight into this. He is left feeling somewhat frustrated as he has a strong desire for companionship, although his social limitations prevent him from being able to realize this in the way which he would like. He has been on antidepressants for many years and it is not entirely clear what role they played. As mentioned above, there is a certain obsessional quality to his thoughts, although it is not clear that he meets criteria for an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Overall, he has a sense that the Paxil has been affective [''sic''] in tempering his frustrations and anger. His parents also feel he has benefited from it. He would possibly benefit from psychotherapy, although this would need to be tailored to his interpersonal style. Ideally this would be done in a setting tailored to patients with this sort of developmental problem. Based on the information available at this time, the patient doesn't seem to pose a significant threat to himself or anyone else. There is some suggestion that the anger control has been a problem, although how that has manifested itself is unclearly [''sic'']. He certainly has no history of physical violence which would suggest any [[October 28 2011|future]] [[26 December 2014|risk]].

====DIAGNOSIS:====
[[Wikipedia:Diagnostic_and_Statistical_Manual_of_Mental_Disorders#DSM-IV multi-axial_system|Axis]] I: None 
Axis II: Autistic disorder, [[Wikipedia:DSM-IV_Codes#Pervasive_developmental_disorders|299.00]] 
Axis III: None 
Axis IV: Suspension from school, social isolation 
Axis V: [[Wikipedia:Global Assessment of Functioning|70]] 

====PLAN:====
1. After discussing the risks, benefits, and side effects, the patient and his parents agreed to have his Paxil increased from 20 mgs. to 30 mgs. They were offered a prescription, but preferred to have this done by their primary care physician.

2. Releases of information were signed for the counselors at PVCC in case this became necessary for further evaluation purposes.

3. We will try to work with the department of rehab services to facilitate any other services that might be available for Mr. Chandler

4. The patient's parents were unsure of whether they will be following up here at the clinic in the future as there are insurance concerns which might limit this. They were, however, informed of access to emergency care and encouraged to call the clinic with any questions or concerns.

5. No follow-up appointment has been scheduled, although should they wish to continue the patient's psychiatric care at this clinic, we would be more than happy to see him.

6. The patient was seen by the attending, Dr. Zachariah Dameron, who agrees with the above-mentioned assessment and treatment plan.

CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!

2025-12-20T04:50:23Z

KennyOfHrub: /* Transcript */

[[File:CWCderp.jpg|thumb|200px|Chris actually derps out from rage.]]

"'''CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!'''" is a video released on 6 [[August 2009]], during the [[SingStar Challenge]] saga.

In this video, [[Solid Chris]] exposes his rage against [[Liquid Chris]], accusing him of not doing the last [[SingStar Challenge Round 5#CChanSonichuCWC's Entry|song]] right and ordering him to redo the song and put his commentary in another video. He also rants about how his name isn't [[Ian Brandon Anderson]] before telling Liquid that his [[Medallions|Sonichu Medallion]] is fake for not being made out of Crayola Model Magic. (Things that are readily apparent to anyone watching, but, [[Chris and reality|in Solid's mind]], the differences between himself and Liquid are much harder for casual viewers to discern.) Solid also believes that Liquid's trolling could net him [[Jail Saga|time behind bars]].

In a display of Solid's gullibility, he accepts [[Kacey]]'s implausible claim that Liquid's real legal name is "Chris Chandler", conceding on that point; however, he also takes refuge in the fact that Liquid's first name is not actually "Christian" like his own, or "[[Christopher's name change|Christopher]]" like his birth name. Ironically enough, it turned out that the troll's first name in real life ''really is'' Christopher, and unlike Solid, Liquid did not have to change it after treating a talking bear get his name wrong once as a religious experience.

This video is notorious for the anger and angst shown by Solid, namely for fairly memetic sound bytes where he insists his name isn't "Ian Brandon Something" and that a real medallion is made out of "Crayola fuckin' Model Magic". Recognizing that the video was likely to bring more negative attention to himself, he deleted the video shortly after uploading it. Prior to the sudden termination of [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|TheCWCvilleLibrary]] in [[December 2015]], it was the second of Solid's most-viewed videos, earning over 300,000 views prior to the channel being taken down.

Chris's birthday

2025-12-06T13:21:26Z

{{quote|Today we celebrate our CHRISTIAN LOVE DAY!|Chris, on being nearly 30.<ref name="lovedayvid">[[Christian Love Day (video)]]</ref>}}
[[File:175-SchuBday.jpg|thumb|Best wishes from Sonichu.]]

'''[[Chris]]'s birthday''', 24 February, also known as '''[[Christian Love Day]]''' (or '''Spiritual Love Day''', circa [[2024]]), is a significant date in his life, for [[Chris and his ego|obvious reasons]]. However, the bizarre inconsistency of how he celebrates (from some new [[vidya]], to [[Examples of Chris's Ego#Christian Love Day|wanting his birthday to be a national holiday]]) warrants some inspection. [[CWCville|Coincidentally]], it was also the day the [[Nazis|Nazi Party]] was founded way back in [[Pre-1980#1920s|1920]],<ref>{{w|Nazi Party|Nazi Party - Wikipedia}}</ref> and when the [[Russia]]n Government launched their [[Wikipedia: Russo-Ukrainian war (2022–present)|war]] on Ukraine. Chris shares his birthday with [[Apple|Steve Jobs]].

==Notable birthdays==
===1999, 17th birthday===
Chris received a Pro 200<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx4Zn5u4NQA| Commercial for the Pro 200 console.]</ref> handheld game console, and was photographed looking visibly disappointed while holding it. Interestingly, it's one of the few times where he would have been pretty justified in being so; given the console in question only had about fifteen simplistic games (in the advertising, they counted each difficulty level as an individual game), most of said games were ''Tetris'' rip-offs (and based around the same tall, thin playing field when they weren't), and it had a tiny, crappy monochrome screen and ear-grating sound. It's more than likely that [[Borb|his parents]] were suckered into buying it based on [[Chris and television|its TV advertisement making it look a lot better than it was]], and infamously promising that they would "never have to buy expensive cartridges again" on top of the cheap price for doing so. We all know [[List of Chris's video games|how well ''that'' worked out]].

He also drew "[[:File:086-BionicFlag.jpg|Bionic Over Autism]]", which would later be included in [[Sonichu 6|''Sonichu'' #6]], and created [[Espanolic]], which would later be seen on his [[Christian's Favorite Hits!|CD cover project]] for school.

===2000, 18th birthday===
[[Image:0481-CWC18th12.jpg|thumb|Chris's best birthday EVER!]]
While [[Trolls|most people]] would've celebrated by partying hard, doing [[Sex|something special]], or just acknowledging that they have grown into legal adults, Chris instead celebrated this milestone with a party that looked like it was meant to be thrown for small children, composed of thrown-together decor, last-minute gifts, and some [[Friend zone|platonic]] [[gal-pals]] as guests. No [[Mia Hamm|strip club]]s, no [[Alcohol|booze]], no [[tobacky]], just ''Kenan & Kel'' and cake. He got a [[Video games|Sega Dreamcast]]. Interestingly, this was allegedly Chris's best birthday ever.

Speaking of ''Kenan & Kel'', it is worth mentioning that its parent series ''All That'' featured a ''Vital Information for Your Everyday Life'' sketch that had some very, very eerie foreshadowing:

{{Quote|If you're a girl and your bra is too tight, you're uncomfortable. If you're a ''boy'' and [[Muscle bra|your bra]] is too tight, I'M uncomfortable.|Lori Beth Denberg}}

The great importance of this event apparently warranted recording as a story, "[[My big 18th party]]".

Years later, when asked by [[Kacey]] what he did do with his high school friends, Chris could not recall meeting them outside of school at any instance other than his 18th birthday.<ref>[[Kacey Call 20]]</ref> Likewise, a former Manchester High alumna who attended this birthday cannot recall any other instance in which she and the rest of Chris's high school friends ever hung out with him outside of school.<ref name>[[October 2013 Facebook Posts#Reality Comes Knocking]]</ref> Chris has stated that if he were to advise a younger version of himself, he would tell 18-year-old Chris that the gal pals he was with were hired by Bob and that he deserves better friends than the gal pals.

===2003, 21st birthday===
[[Image:0603-CWC21Note.jpg|thumb|And now the worst...]]

If the above birthday was Chris's best, then this one was probably his worst. No friends, no new [[video games]], and no [[sweetheart]]. The only present Chris received was his professor kicking him out of his [[PVCC|college]] [[Chris and English|English]] class. All wasn't lost, however, as this event was the catalyst that began the [[Love Quest]], Chris's enduring search for someone that will [[Barbara Chandler|put up with his crying and pamper him for eternity]].

File:0608-CWCIs22.jpg
</gallery></center>

===2005, 23rd birthday===
Chris documented this birthday in an issue of ''[[Sonichu's News Dash#Chris's 23rd Birthday|Sonichu's News Dash]]''. It took place at the mall and was attended by his parents, as well as "a couple of his new-found gal-pals, who all already have Boyfriends, or are otherwise undatable, due to her religion". He was treated like a child, and loved every second of it.

The gal-pal who is "undatable, due to her religion" is most likely [[Anna McLerran|Anna]]. Chris has met her prior to his 23rd birthday,<ref>As can be inferred from the fact that [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer]] was published on 5 [[2005#February|February 2005]], prior to Chris's birthday.</ref> and he likewise describes Mormons like Anna as undatable.<ref>[[MySpace messages#Jalena]]</ref>

[[Image:0940-CWCsAppreaciation.JPG|thumb|Chris's 25th birthday and [[DVD]] launch party.]]

To celebrate this milestone, Chris recorded an [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE|IMPORTANT MESSAGE]], inspiring girls, boys, and dudes of all teenages with the many lessons he has learned from his quarter-century of experience.

===2008, 26th birthday===
It's unknown what Chris did for his birthday on 24 February [[2008]], although a week later [[Megan Schroeder|Megan]] wrote to him saying ''"Yeah that [[internet]] thing is getting very much out of hand and would like to ask if you could please take down or remove anything that has to do with me from any of your websites. I don't want to appear on those sites as well."'' A while later she discovered that Chris [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|drew and posted porn of her]]. Chaos ensued.

===2009, 27th birthday===
Chris's 27th birthday coincided with Fat Tuesday as well as the burial of his late [[Aunt Corrina]] in [[Chris's homes#Family in Red Oak|Red Oak]]. Undoubtedly, this cast a shadow on the festivities. In true Chris fashion, he bitched and complained about not being able to [[Obesity|stuff his greedy gullet full of pancakes]] at [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|his church in Charlottesville]] instead of [[Chris and death|mourning]] the loss of his aunt. He would later go on to complain in [[Mumble 9]] about how Aunt Corrina ruined his special day by selfishly dying. He did receive some birthday money, which he used to fund his [[Ohio trip]] two days later.

===2010, 28th birthday===
Other than Chris's [[ego|obsessive desire]] to see his birthday made a holiday, not much is known about how he spent his 28th. What we do know is that he ingested a [[Semen|mysterious substance]] and was [[Magical Man Potion|visited]] by another [[Jerk|male]] guest. [[Alec Benson Leary]] also [[Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 9|called in and congratulated him]], being the all-around nice guy that he is. Chris [[Vivian Gee E-mails, 2010#Hey, Vivian — 11 February|had been saving $100]] to pay for a prostitute as a birthday present for himself, but he ultimately abandoned that idea after [[The Wallflower]] became his friend and he assumed he would be allowed to have sex with her for free.

===2011, 29th birthday===
The events were unknown due to his hiatus from the [[Internet]], but somewhere around this time is when Chris began to [[Tomgirl Pictures|embrace his feminine side]].

* '''''Sonichu'' Canon:''' Coincidentally (or not), the homo vaccine in [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]] is distributed into the world's water supply on this day.

===2012, 30th birthday===
[[File:30_year_old_virgin.png|thumb|A must-see!]]

Chris entered his fourth decade in [[2012]]. The [[28 October 2011]] crimes still cast a shadow. Being the affluent [[Sony]] fanboy that he is, Chris bought himself a [[PlayStation Vita]] and a copy of ''Asphalt Injection'' (a critically-panned racing title, and the worst-reviewed game in the ''Asphalt'' franchise).

Leaked [[Facebook statuses]] revealed that Chris was not looking forward to this birthday. On 30 January, he expressed his frustrations about soon becoming a 30-year-old virgin, and a little more than a week later Chris announced on 11 February that he had no plans for his birthday.

===2013, 31st birthday===
[[Trolling]] was on Chris's mind on this birthday: he watched the slasher film about trolls ''{{w|Smiley (2012 film)|Smiley}}'' two days before, and the day after his birthday he called out [[My Little Pony|Tara Strong]] for "promoting trolling".

===2014, 32nd birthday===
Chris and his mother were staying in their [[Rental House|temporary house]] while [[14 Branchland Court|his home]] was undergoing repairs after its [[Destruction Of Chris's House|fiery destruction]]. Chris was recovering from bronchitis. It was a quiet birthday. He worked on his [[LEGO]] [[high school]], watched the ''Back to the Future'' movies, and got some free ice cream at IHOP.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Birthday]]</ref>

===2015, 33rd birthday===
Chris took to [[Facebook]], asking for a "very much required" $300 Lego set, along with ''two'' $70 Bikini Bottom sets – because he wants to make use of one piece from each set. His given motive is that he "may reconsider [his] feelings upon the lot of you" (note that the condition is that he ''may'' reconsider his feelings – [[Chris and negotiation|it's not guaranteed]], but you'll have to send him $400 in Lego blocks to find out). Unsurprisingly, Chris did not receive the gifts he asked for.

===2016, 34th birthday===
After months of living on the profits from his overpriced art and excessive donations from remorseful trolls, much like the year before, Chris's 34th birthday ended up being marked by lavish demands on his part. [[2016|This year]], he made an "[[Chris and negotiation|offer]]" to his fanbase: if they sent him a [[PS4]] bundle of his choosing for his birthday, he would in turn give them a $500 discount on his wide selection of shit on [[Etsy]]. Whether Chris even ''has'' $500 worth of merchandise that anyone would want to buy, or whether they would receive their purchases in a timely manner, is an exercise left to the reader.

Needless to say, February 24 came and went, with no PS4 forthcoming. The following day, Chris caught some Christorians off-guard by revealing ([[Update: 2/25/16|in the most lulzy fashion]]) that he had seriously expected strangers on the internet to fork out hundreds of dollars for the birthday <s>boy</s> [[Tomgirl|girl]]. Not only that, but [[Weens|some]] had even chosen instead to taunt him by sending him unactivated gift cards and used lottery tickets. And what happened then? Well, in [[CWCville]] they say – that the Mayor's massive [[Chris and his Ego|ego]] shrank three sizes that day.

Chris eventually purchased his own PS4 when nobody took him up on his "generous offer", but nonetheless pretended that he'd received it as a gift from an employee of the company he bought it from, in an apparent attempt to troll the trolls and/or rewrite history so he can continue believing that he has a massive <s>[[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens (comics)|terrorist]] [[Chaotic Combo|organization]]</s> fanbase who love him and would do ''anything'' for him, even if it breaks the law. And sure enough, he's tried to use them for just that, inciting them to [[FIX SONIC'S ARMS IMMEDIATELY, SEGA!!!|commit acts of vandalism and even violence]].

Ultimately, many found it simultaneously funny and sad that Chris had to make up his own [[white knight]].

===2017, 35th birthday===
Turning 35 seemed to awaken a nostalgic mood in Chris; he [[A_browsing_around_an_ol%27_playground|visited an old playground]], talked about [[Bob Chandler|Bob]] and [[high school]], and looked up [[Megan Schroeder|Megan]] on Facebook in the preceding weeks. The day after, Facebook showed him a video of Facebook friends wishing him a happy birthday.<ref>[[February_2017_Facebook_Posts]]</ref>

===2018, 36th birthday===
Not much happened this year, only that Chris commented about Christian Love Day on his Twitter and Facebook.

===2019, 37th birthday===
Chris tweeted a picture of his cake and [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] sang "Happy Birthday" to him.

Chris requested on Twitter that one of his enablers buy him ''Pokémon Shield''. He later asked for "something well-crafted; magic/healing stones" or just cold, hard cash.<ref>[[February 2020 social media posts]]</ref>

On the day, he [[Tweeted]] a [[Spanish]] birthday message and an image of him and orbiters forming a heart:

===2021, 39th birthday===
Chris, [[Spirit possession|role-playing]] as Sonichu, made a simultaneous [[February 2021 social media posts#Chris's birthday and Sonic World|post]] on Twitter and Instagram wishing himself a happy birthday. He also shared some gameplay of his Sonichu mod for [[Sonic World]].

===2022, 40th birthday===
Chris entered his middle ages in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] as he spent his first birthday away from home, continuing to await legal proceedings for his [[Affair with Mother|incest]] charge.

===2023, 41st birthday===
Chris spent a second birthday in jail; it is not known if he was able to observe it in any way. A month later, he would be [[Jail_Saga#Bonded_out_or_Released_by_court_order|released]].

===2024, 42nd birthday===
Chris celebrated his first birthday since being released from jail. He also spent some of the day outside playing [[Pokémon GO]].<ref>[[Sightings (2024)#Liberty University]]</ref>

=="Christian Love Day"==
{{main|Christian Love Day}}
[[File:Christian Love Day Declaration.jpg|thumb|The Christian Love Day Declaration (which is totally TRUE and HONEST, and not a [[things Chris has ripped off|rip-off]] at all).]]
Many people see their birthday as a day of personal relevance. Chris, on the other hand, thinks everyone across the globe should be [[Chris and his ego|focused on him too]]. First seen in the [[CWC Blog]], "Christian Love Day" is apparently a second Valentine's Day, but celebrated exclusively by STRAIGHT folk. In the [[Mailbag]], he clarified he "feels like" it should be a nationally recognized holiday, merely because [[Chris and reality|he wills it]] and it's also Mexican Flag Day. However, Chris provides no details on how to celebrate, nor does he put any effort into garnering publicity beyond [[Christian Love Day (video)|one lone video]].

In [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']], the holiday gains slightly more credence, along with some disturbing moral stipulations. It is on this day that the homo vaccine "cures" the homosexual population of the Earth, driving the [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]] up to critical levels. It seems to be that this fictional event is the real reason Chris wants to commemorate his birthday as a holiday (well, that and [[Chris and his Ego|ego]]). Chris either thinks his comic is so widely known that the date of its denouement would be nationally recognized, or he [[Chris and reality|has a skewed perception of the lines between fiction and reality]].

{{Quote|I ONLY WISH TO TELL [[Honest Content|THE TRUTH]] AND SPREAD IT ON THE [[Chris and the Internet|INTERNET]].|Chris}}
On 1 [[May 2009]], [[Christian Weston Chandler]] registered on '''{{w|Wikipedia}}''' as [[Chris-chan Sonichu|ChrisChanSonichu]]. He did this almost solely to create a user page that is to record one of the most in-depth autobiographical accounts of his life.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:ChrisChanSonichu User talk:ChrisChanSonichu], Wikipedia</ref>

A user page is not a proper article, and therefore not subject to the same strict guidelines as an article, but as biographical and personal an article as Chris's was a flagrant violation of Wikipedia policy. The Wikipedia community tends to frown on the use of the user pages as web space;<ref>{{w|Wikipedia:User pages#Excessive unrelated content}}</ref> the user pages should usually be reserved for purposes somehow related to the Wikipedia project, and user pages for users who don't contribute anything to the articles frequently get deleted. Chris, of course, made it abundantly clear that he's not interested in actually editing the project.

Chris's user page was deleted by a Wikipedia administrator, who believed it to be the work of a [[troll]]. Sadly, the [[Chris's Wikipedia profile|details]] shows that this was the real deal.

The only other thing Chris did was add his name to the article on high-functioning [[autism]], under the list of "famous individuals that may have had many different variations of autism along with HFA."<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&tagfilter=&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=ChrisChanSonichu&namespace=&tagfilter=&year=&month=-1 User contributions for ChrisChanSonichu], Wikipedia</ref><ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=High-functioning_autism&diff=prev&oldid=287579250 High-functioning autism], Wikipedia</ref> The kicker is that [[Chris and his ego|he put himself right next to]] {{w|Michelangelo}}. [[Hotel Ricky Ricardo|Again]].

To date, the "Christian Weston Chandler" article on Wikipedia has been created by trolls four times and deleted each time: 15 [[February 2009|February]], 26 [[March 2009|March]], 28 [[April 2009|April]] and 3 [[May 2009]].<ref>{{w|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christian Weston Chandler}}</ref> It has consequently been "{{w|Wikipedia:Protection policy#Creation protection (salting)|salted}}" or protected so that it cannot be re-created under that title. Chris's account was also blocked indefinitely for violating many rules. The page on [[Ruckersville, VA|Ruckersville, Virginia]] is also locked to non-autoconfirmed users to prevent people from adding mentions of Chris.

To this day, discussions still regularly appear on Wikipedia debating over whether Chris is notable enough to be included on Wikipedia, with users ranging from weens to fans, to even normal Wikipedians. So far, no such page has been created on English-language Wikipedia. Furthermore, pages discussing things that Chris would logically be relevant to, such as {{w|Kiwi Farms|their article for}} [[Kiwi Farms]] (itself the successor to [[CWCki Forums]], which is named after this very Wiki and Chris by extension) and {{w|List of people claimed to be Jesus}} ([[Messiah complex|as Chris has done]]), go out of their way to not mention Chris by name. As of [[October 2020]], Chris remains upset over the lack of Wikipedia coverage on him and Sonichu.<ref name=placewikipedia>[[The Place chats (October 2020)#Interview Prep, Mad Over Wikipedia]]</ref>

==[[May 2009]] drama==
In a [[Captain's Log, Stardate May 3rd, 2009|video]] on 3 May, Chris makes a case for his worthiness and rallies his [[True and Honest]] [[fans]] to restore his biography. He also posted the following on his Wikipedia discussion page:

{{quotebox|Dear Sir/Madam,

LOOK, I do not have the appropriate [[Slow-in-the-minds|calm state of mind]] to make time to READ those numerous upon numerous small-print details, much less memorize them. I have had a LOT of SLANDEROUS TWISTS OF MY OWN WORDS done unto me in the past SOO MUCH, it is HARDEST for me to get a [[job]] in a place that does background checks, only to find that cursed [[ED|E.D]]. Page those EVIL [[trolls|TROLLS]] created against me at the TOP of the list.

I started [[CWCipedia|my OWN Wikipedia]] page to hopefully counter that and better the people's General Understand of the Noble Gentleman I truly am. I SPENT HOURS, recalling MEMORY after MEMORY to type up the [[HONEST]]-TO-GOD TRUTH.

I DO NOT CARE about the erroneous listings or false information listed on other pages; I ONLY WISH TO TELL THE TRUTH AND SPREAD IT ON THE INTERNET.

Plus, I have [[Vanessa Hudgens|Vanessa Anne Hudgens]] as an honest, very close [[Gal-Pal]], and you know very well how powerful she is as a STAR.

I have created [[Captain's_Log,_Stardate_May_3rd,_2009|a video on YouTube]] respectfully asking to leave my Wikipedia ALONE with MY HONEST TRUTH from MY OWN High-Functioning Autistic Head; my [[Fanbase|LOYAL FANBASE]] will be sending you letters.

UNDO YOUR DELETION, PLEASE.

--Christian Weston Chandler (talk) 01:25, 4 [[May 2009]] (UTC) }}

In short, Chris didn't give a shit about contributing to Wikipedia, only aiming to use it as a means to present what he thinks he is without needing to vandalize his Encyclopedia Dramatica page.

==Mainspace articles involving Chris==
[[File:Cwc on wikipedia.png|200px|thumb|left|Note that it calls us an "infamous" wiki.]]
On 13 [[August 2010]], a new article on Mr. Chandler was created under the name Christian W. Chandler. The article consisted of the following:

{{Quotebox|'''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born '''Christopher Weston Chandler''' on 24 February 1982) is an illustrator from Charlottesville, Virginia. He is known mainly as the creator of '''Sonichu''', a fan fiction comic based off the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] and [[Pokémon]] franchise. He was also featured in the May 2004 issue of [[Nintendo Power Magazine|Nintendo Power]] for his documentary, the April 2005 issue of Nintendo Power, and the community college newspaper for [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]].

Christian Weston Chandler's birth name was, in fact, '''Christopher'''. It took a chance encounter with [http://www.leonardbearstein.com/ Leonard Bearstein] in Regency Square Mall for his current name to be bestowed upon him. Aged 11 at the time, Chris and his father were in the mall for holiday shopping when Chris came across Leonard and engaged him in conversation. The man behind the microphone, mishearing the name "Christopher", addressed the young boy as Christian, a name that struck a chord within the young Chandler's heart. All it took was one legal name change for Christian to assume the identity he carries with him to this day. He acknowledges jokingly that it was as if God spoke through the bear to give him the name he always wanted.}}

The article used Chris's two ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' appearances, as well as the [[Animal Crossing Documentary#PVCC.27s news report|writeup]] in the [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|PVCC]] ''Forum'' and the [[It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]] article as references. Only a day later, this article was also nominated for deletion; it got deleted less than an hour-and-a-half later after the author requested it to be deleted.<ref>{{w|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christian W. Chandler}}</ref> Further inspection showed that the article creator was a sockpuppet of a user who had previously been banned from Wikipedia.

On 21 [[April 2016]], an article was created under the title '''Sonichu (Comic)''' and soon nominated for deletion; the article without the (Comic) qualifier was already protected from creation. It read, as of 22 April 2016:

{{Quotebox|Sonichu is the comic created by Christian Weston Chandler, which combines the Pokémon, Pikachu and Sonic the Hedgehog. THe comics contain several references to Chris's real life and he has also created numerous custom Pokemon cards featuring Sonichu and other characters from the series. Sonichu is a recolor of Sonic the Hedgehog in Pikachu yellow, and he travels with a human companion named Chris, who is based on the real-life author. You can see many of these cards as well as a more detailed biography of the character at this link: http://sonichu.com/cwcki/Sonichu_(character)}}

==Other Wikipedia edits of note==
[[File:Meganwikipedia.png|200px|thumb|right|Megan disapproves.]]
[[File:Smitheywiki.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Cole approves.]]
In January and February 2010, [[Megan Schroeder]] (or a person pretending to be her) removed references to Chris from the Wikipedia articles on Manchester High School and [[Cole Smithey]].<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Meganshroeder</ref> Her edit summaries both ended with "that was either put there by vandals or by Christian under the assumption he is important enough to be mentioned (he is mentally handicapped)." Less than a day later, her edit summaries were struck out.

The articles' histories indicate that both mentions of Chris were added by anonymous users who most likely are not Chris, as the genuine article would have been far more [[Chris and English|verbose and rambling]]. One editor cited this very wiki as a reference, running afoul of Wikipedia's policy on {{w|Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources}}. As our own Wwwwolf put it, "Sorry, but Chris can't be mentioned here either unless there are reliable sources for this. That means actual publications. Also see Biographies of Living Persons on why sourcing stuff in biographies is such a big deal. This is not CWCki or ED; please remember Wikipedia's rules." Skimming through the talk page and edit history of any article even remotely connected with Chris reveals large amounts of petty vandalism from [[weens]].<ref group = note>Articles infected with Chris related vandalism include [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sean_Marshall&diff=next&oldid=350396058 Sean Marshall], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ruckersville,_Virginia&diff=399557954&oldid=399169556 Ruckersville], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Charlottesville,_Virginia&diff=315040313&oldid=315040250 Charlottesville] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jimmy_Hill&diff=276226199&oldid=276119469 Jimmy Hill], among others. </ref> This has led Wikipedia to set their {{w|Wikipedia:Edit filter}} to prevent users from making edits with Chris-related phrases.<ref group = note>For more info see the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&wpSearchFilter=257 filter log] of filter 257 - Sonichu and other repeat vandalism. The phrases [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog/4961668 "Christian Weston Chandler"] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog/4954315 "Sonichu"] are disallowed by this filter.</ref>

On 22 [[February 2010]], the article on Cole Smithey was placed up for deletion.<ref>{{w|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cole Smithey}}</ref> The first two votes in the discussion both called for the deletion of the article, and both made explicit mention of Chris; the second one read, "'''Strong delete''' unless somebody wishes to write a sourced, neutral article about him. Otherwise, this serves as cannon fodder for the ChrisChan Sonichu fanatics over at [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]]." The article was deleted on 1 March.

It should also be noted that an account with the name Cole Smithey edited the Wikipedia article on Cole, and spammed film articles with links to his reviews. Whether or not this is the real Cole (who is known to be rather egotistical) remains to be seen.

==Current situation==

"Christian Weston Chandler", "Sonichu" and related titles are currently "{{w|Wikipedia:Protection policy#Creation protection (salting)|salted}}" (protected from creation) so pages cannot be created under that title.<ref>Public logs for: [https://web.archive.org/web/20191210112152/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?page=Christopher_Weston_Chandler Christopher]/[https://web.archive.org/web/20191210112154/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?page=Christian_Weston_Chandler Christian]/[https://web.archive.org/web/20191210112156/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?page=Christine_Weston_Chandler Christine] Weston Chandler; [https://web.archive.org/web/20191210112343/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?page=Chris-Chan Chris-Chan]; [https://web.archive.org/web/20191210112353/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?page=Sonichu Sonichu].</ref> Pages for places and institutions associated with Chris, such as {{w|Ruckersville, Virginia}} and {{w|Manchester High School (Virginia)|Manchester High School}}, are also locked to non-autoconfirmed users, to prevent people from adding mentions of Chris. The titles "{{w|Christine Chandler}}" and "{{w|Chris Chan}}" are used for an unrelated New Mexico state legislator and Singaporean sports executive respectively.

Lengthy discussions on the talk pages for these articles debating whether Chris is worthy of inclusion have been scrubbed from the site. The closest it has come is in 2021 after the [[Affair with Mother|incest case]], which was agreed against as it would violate the policies on harassment and the principle that Wikipedia must not be a place for speculation or for news, and because some people in contact with Chris have been accused of serious crimes themselves, which would violate the child protection and criminal BLP policies.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Archive335#Creating_the_%22Chris_Chan%22_article</ref>

The article for {{w|Kiwi Farms}} is an unusual case, since Chris is undeniably relevant to the history of the site. However, the article ties itself in knots trying to avoid mentioning Chris by name and gender-specific pronouns, despite mentioning the [[CWCki]]:

{{quotebox|[[Kiwi Farms]] was founded in [[2013]] by [[Joshua Conner Moon]] (known as "Null" on the website), a former [[4-cent_garbage.com|8chan]] [[Jerkop|administrator]]. It was originally launched as a forum website to [[troll]] and harass [[Christian Weston Chandler|a webcomic artist]] who was first noticed in [[2007]] on the Something Awful forums. Eventually, an [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] page was created about the artist. A dedicated wiki, titled "[[CWCki]]" based on the artist's initials, was created by [[Cogsdev|people]] who felt that the Encyclopedia Dramatica entry was not [[Honest Content|detailed or accurate enough]]. Kiwi Farms was originally called "[[CWCki Forums]]" before "Kiwi Farms" was coined in [[2014]].}}

Attempts to name Chris on the article have repeatedly been swiftly reverted and [[Shot to the moon|entirely deleted from the history page]],<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/delete&page=Kiwi_Farms ''Note: deleted revisions described as "disruptive" are usually attempts to name Chris on the article.''</ref> and the article has also received {{w|Wikipedia:Protection policy#extended|Extended Protection}}, which is usually only reserved for the most widely known figures or topics in history, in order to "promote compliance with the {{w|Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|policy of biographies of living persons.}}"

Wikipedia administrators and editors enforce non-naming due to a number of problems such as conflicts with Biographies of living persons guidelines<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons</ref> (particularly the "Avoid victimization" section.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kiwi_Farms/Archive_3#:~:text=List%20of%20previous%20discussions%20on%20this%20talk%20page%20and%20others</ref> In [[June 2019]], Chris requested that his name be censored or removed from the Kiwi Farms article due to making him feel uneasy, adding he wouldn't mind having his own dedicated article instead.<ref>[[June 2019 social media posts#Chris Maintains his vendetta against the Farms]]</ref> Still, discussions continue to regularly appear on Wikipedia debating over whether Chris is notable enough to be included or mentioned on Wikipedia, with users ranging from weens, to fans, to even normal Wikipedians.

In [[October 2020]], Chris tried looking up his name on Wikipedia to see if there was a page on him and was pissed off over the omission of both himself and Sonichu, calling it "royal levels of suck" that there was nothing on Wikipedia about himself. [[Anaxis]] pointed out that there was an article on the Polish Wikipedia, but Chris retorted, "Oh, sure, Poland, but not on American Wikipedia", calling the latter the country he and Sonichu were born in.<ref name=placewikipedia></ref>

On 1 [[October 2021]], [[Geno Samuel]] appeared on the 68th episode of the Trash Taste podcast. The episode's title, "The Dark World of Chris Chan (ft. Geno Samuel)," was listed on the podcast's Wikipedia page, finally earning Chris a mention on the website.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trash_Taste</ref>

On 26 [[May 2024]], Chris received [[:File:Chris 2 votes 2024 LNC.jpg|two official write-in votes]] for the Presidential nomination of the Libertarian Party, briefly earning him another mention on Wikipedia, this time by full name. However, the next day, his mention was removed.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Libertarian_National_Convention#Notes</ref>

==Foreign-language Wikipedias==
Though the English Wikipedia seems to be stubborn in its intent to avoid talking about Chris at all, international versions of the Wikipedia project have had better luck about documenting Chris.

=== Spanish ===
On 26 January 2017, an article about Chris was added to the Spanish Wikipedia. It is quoted below:

{{quotebox|Christian Weston Chandler (Charlottesville, Virginia, 24 de febrero de 1982) es un vlogger de YouTube y creador del webcómic Sonichu. En 2007 Christian se convirtió en objetivo de troleo por parte de Encyclopædia Dramatica y 4chan debido a pobre calidad de su trabajo, su comportamiento inusual y sus reacciones extremas a la hostilidad. Christian fue arrestado en el 2014 después intentar remover la carátula del juego Sonic Boom en GameStop y atacar a un empleado antes de salir forzosamente.}}

On 15 [[August 2020]], a user of CWCki, Methalowiec, successfully created a page for [https://web.archive.org/web/20200816093248/https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Weston_Chandler Chris] on the Polish Wikipedia, which is a different website entirely from its English counterpart. Despite the English Wikipedia having banned the page from being created, the Polish page was accepted by an administrator. Notably, the page refers to Chris by male pronouns; this was probably accepted due to Poland's right leaning political environment.

The page was removed<ref>https://pl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Specjalna:Rejestr&logid=46964832</ref> on 21st of [[January 2021]].

On 19 [[October 2020]], a user of CWCki, AutoDiller (Soglasun on Wikipedia), created a page for {{w|Чендлер, Кристиан Уэстон|Chris|lang=ru}} on Russian Wikipedia that was mainly translated from the Polish version:<ref>[https://ru.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A7%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%BB%D0%B5%D1%80,_%D0%9A%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BD_%D0%A3%D1%8D%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BD Чендлер, Кристин Уэстон], Wikipedia</ref>

{{quoteboxblue|Кристин Уэстон Чендлер (англ. Christine Weston Chandler, в прошлом — Кристиан Уэстон Чендлер (англ. Christian Weston Chandler), род. 24 февраля 1982; также известен как Крис-Чан (англ. Chris-chan)) — видеоблогер и создатель веб-комикса «Соничу». Считается некоторыми одной из самых задокументированных личностей в истории.

Биография

Родился 24 февраля 1982 года в Шарлотсвилле (штат Вирджиния, США), в семье Роберта (скончался в 2011 году) и Барбары Чендлеров. В возрасте около пяти лет ему поставили диагноз «аутизм». В 1992 году его первоначальное имя, Кристофер, было изменено на Кристиан.

Большую часть жизни Крис провёл в городе Ракерсвилл, где и проживает, и в Шарлотсвилле. За пределами Виргинии, где эти города расположены, Крис, по состоянию на 2015 год, был лишь два раза: во-первых, когда навещал своего двоюродного брата Кола в Калифорнии, а во-вторых, когда отправился в Кливленд (штат Огайо) в поисках своей очередной девушки, с которой переписывался (на деле оказавшейся очередным троллем). После безуспешной поездки в Огайо родители запретили Крису выезжать за пределы родного штата.

Первый выпуск своего веб-комикса «Соничу» был опубликован 24 марта 2005 года. Одноимённый персонаж является гибридом ежа Соника и Пикачу.

Он стал известен в Интернете в конце 2007 года, после того как привлёк внимание пользователей сайтов 4chan и Encyclopedia Dramatica. Первоначальное очарование было вызвано его фирменным самодельным медальоном Соничу (впоследстыии украденным и сожжённым), его детскими рисунками, изображающими его неоригинального перекрашенного Соника, и бродяжничеством в общественных местах[источник не указан 186 дней]. Из-за этого Кристиан стал жертвой онлайн-преследований и троллинга.

В 2011 году британский мультипликатор Гарри Партридж заметил:

В этом же году он начал идентифицировать себя как транс-лесбиянка по имени Кристин Уэстон Чендлер. Она была арестована в 2014 году после попытки кражи коробки с игрой Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric прямо в местном магазине сети GameStop и нападения на сотрудника магазина перед тем, как покинуть его[9].

30 июля 2021 года были опубликованы аудиозаписи, на которых Кристин утверждала, что изнасиловала свою слабоумную, страдающую деменцией мать. Эти двое были разделены местным отделением полиции в один и тот же день[10]. 1 августа по обвинению в инцесте она была арестована[11][12].

{{quoteboxblue|Christian Weston Chandler is a video blogger and the creator of the web comic "Sonichu". He is considered by some to be one of the most documented personalities in history.
Biography

He was born on 24 February 1982 in Charlottesville (Virginia, USA), in the family of Robert (deceased in 2011) and Barbara Chandler. At the age of about five, he was diagnosed with autism. In 1992, his original name, Christopher, was changed to Christian.

Chris spent most of his life in the city of Ruckersville, where he lives, and in Charlottesville. Outside of Virginia, where these cities are located, Chris, as of 2015, was only twice: firstly, when he visited his cousin Kol in California, and secondly, when he went to Cleveland, Ohio, in search of his next girlfriend, with whom he corresponded (in fact, turned out to be another troll). After an unsuccessful trip to Ohio, Chris' parents forbade him to travel outside his native state.

The first issue of his webcomic Sonichu was published on March 24, 2005. The eponymous character is a hybrid of Sonic the Hedgehog and Pikachu.

He became famous on the Internet in late 2007, after attracting the attention of users of the sites 4chan and Encyclopedia Dramatica. The initial fascination stemmed from his signature homemade Sonichu medallion (later stolen and burned), his childhood drawings of his non-original repainted Sonic, and loitering in public places [source unspecified 186 days]. Because of this, Christian became a victim of online harassment and trolling.

In 2011, British cartoonist Harry Partridge remarked:
“ That same year, Chris began to identify as a trans lesbian named Christine Weston Chandler. He was arrested in 2014 after attempting to steal a box of Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric from a local GameStop store and assaulting a store employee before leaving “.

On July 30, 2021, audio recordings were released in which Christian claimed to have raped his feeble-minded, demented mother. The two were separated by the local police station on the same day[10]. On August 1, she was arrested on charges of incest[11][12]. }}

=== Dutch ===
On 9 July 2022, an article on Chris was created on the Dutch Wikipedia under the title "{{w|Chris Chan|lang=nl}}". Unlike the previous attempts, this article appears to be a genuine attempt by a Wikipedia user in providing a more professional and unbiased coverage on Chris, going as far as to referring him by his preferred pronouns. Despite that, the article was deleted on the 2 October 2022, citing the sensational nature of the sources used, primarily from those covering Chris's [[incest arrest]]. An archive copy is linked [https://archive.ph/iMfa5 here].

=== Portuguese ===
On 23 February 2024, an article on Chris was created on the Portuguese Wikipedia titled "{{w|Chris Chan|lang=pt}}". Like the Dutch article, it appears to be a Wikipedian's genuine attempt to create an unbiased and professional article.

'''Joseph Cole Smithey''' (born 24 July 1963)<ref>''[[:Image:046-ColeCDIn.jpg|A CD For Cole Smithey!]]''</ref> is [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]]'s half-brother, [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]]'s first son, and lone ([[Bob Chandler|living]]) escapee of the [[Chandler Family Tree|Casa de Chandler]] prior to Chris's [[arrest]]. Despite sharing genetics with his [[Christian Weston Chandler|mentally challenged brother]] and being raised and abused by the same [[Barb|horrible mother]], Cole leads a relatively normal life. [[Cole Smithey E-mails|Cole's emails to Chris]] revealed a lot of information about the Chandler family.

==Life==

===Childhood===
Cole was born on 24 July 1963, to mother [[Barbara Chandler]], and father [[Ran Coleman Yeatts]], who divorced Barbara before Cole was born. Barb has claimed that Jack Dale Smithey was Cole's father, who she claimed to have married; however, their relationship is shrouded in mystery, and Cole has spent years trying to figure out if Barbara was even actually married to Jack. He was mainly raised by Barbara and her later husband, stepfather Jerry Harmon. Harmon used to perform as a magician, and Cole frequently performed alongside him in his stage act entitled [[Operation Snowball]]. As a kid, he got into music, film and comics as a hobby.<ref>[https://cheunderground.site/there-to-here-cole-smithey-smartest-film-critic-in-the-world/#more-10309 Cole Smithey bio interview from Che Underground]</ref> He stated he was a big fan of [[wikipedia:Kiss (band)|Kiss]], and attended drum lessons at the age of 12. He saw his first R-rated movie, ''{{w|The Big Boss|Fists of Fury}}'', at the age of 8.

Cole has stated that his childhood was fraught with abuse. In [[Cole Smithey E-mails|e-mails exchanged with his half-brother Chris]], Cole particularly singled out Barbara for her treatment of him, stating she would abuse him via methods like bare spankings and cold showers. He also called out Jerry for his treatment of him as well, saying he'd join in with Barb and her abuse of Cole; however, he has been more charitable about Jerry in other accounts, so it's more than likely that Barb treated him the worst. In his article [[Saturday Night Special]], Cole recounted an incident where Barbara fired a loaded gun at a steel door to ward off a burglar, the resulting ricochet of which almost struck young Cole in the head. These events have obviously had a lasting impression on him, and almost certainly contributed to him eventually leaving the care of Barbara in 1980.

===California (1980-96)===
Cole left home in 1980 at the age of 16 or 17 and moved to California.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref> Not long after moving, he had a sinus infection which came close to killing him.<ref>[[Rental House Tour]]</ref> This was the second of at least three near-death encounters in his life. Cole's LinkedIn profile states that he attended [[wikipedia:San Diego State University|San Diego State University]] from 1981 and earned a Dramatic Art degree in Music in 1984.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> While at college he was the drummer for a [[wikipedia:Poway, California|Poway]]-based punk rock band called "The Rockin' Dogs" which played shows in the San Diego area. The band was formed in 1981 and broke up in 1985.<ref>[http://www.sandiegoreader.com/bands/rockin-dogs/ The Rockin' Dogs | San Diego Reader]</ref>

Cole later moved to Northern California. At some point, he attended [[wikipedia:Hartnell College|Hartnell College]] and [[wikipedia:San Francisco City College|San Francisco City College]], where he pursued a similar course of study. His LinkedIn profile does not mention him receiving a degree from either school.<ref>http://www.linkedin.com/pub/cole-smithey/a/125/9aa</ref> In July 1989, the Chandler household, including Chris, flew to San Francisco to celebrate Cole's 26th birthday. This was the only time they came to visit him during his entire 16-year tenure in California. By 1994, still in San Francisco, Cole was doing shows as "Cole Blooded" and had apparently shifted to the guitar.

In 1996 he moved to New York.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-1.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 1]]</ref>

Cole currently lives in Manhattan and is a film critic who is featured on Rotten Tomatoes.<ref>http://www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/cole-smithey/</ref> He was mentioned in ''Time'' magazine for being the first critic to give a negative review to ''Toy Story 3'', breaking the ''Toy Story'' franchise's string of perfect scores on RT.<ref>http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/06/19/can-147-critics-be-wrong-meet-the-two-pundits-who-trashed-toy-story-3/</ref> Several years later, in an interview with Arthur Spatchcock, Chris stated that he disagreed with his brother's review even though he hadn't seen the film.

Cole occasionally hosts [[eBay]] auctions for the winning bidder to spend a night with him drinking craft beer at his wife's bar and talking about film, proving that, despite one half-brother being a pretentious wannabe hipster douchebag and the other being a socially-stunted mentally-ill manchild, they both share the same [[Chris and his ego|bloated ego]].<ref>http://www.ebay.com/itm/Drink-Craft-Beer-in-NYC-with-Film-Critic-Cole-Smithey-/291052352033?hash=item43c4127221</ref>

He brands himself as "The Smartest Film Critic in the World." (A title that the late, esteemed film critic {{w|Roger Ebert}} once mocked.<ref>http://www.colesmithey.com/filmblog/2009/04/my-dialogue-with-roger.html</ref>) Cole regularly posts his reviews to YouTube, but his videos have hilariously low view counts, rarely more than a few hundred per video and sometimes not even more than a few ''dozen'', even on reviews of well-known films. Ironically, the various videos Chris posted to YouTube over the years are literally thousands of times more popular than those of his relatively more successful brother. It probably doesn't help matters that Cole Smithey's videos have rather low production values, and negative reviews of well-received films (like ''Toy Story 3'' and ''Lady Bird'', which we will get to). On a sidenote, he also considers [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|''Freddy Got Fingered'']] (a film often considered to be one of the worst of all time) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JUuAhFVlk4 to be "Classic Cinema"].

By [[March 2007]], Cole was in a relationship with a woman named Katherine (no, not [[Catherine|her]]).<ref name="Email" /> This is most likely the same Katherine he married in [[March 2013]].<ref name="JohnKyleVid">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aitxArbd0o John Kyle - Three Love Songs at Katherine and Cole's Wedding] (retrieved on 24 February 2014)</ref> Given that Cole mentioned an earlier wedding during his correspondence with Chris, it appears that Katherine is his second wife, unless the "wedding" in 2013 was actually a renewal of vows.<ref name="Email"/> His brother-in-law, John Kyle, sang at his wedding. John later commented on [[Message for John Kyle]], where he mentions Cole.

{{quote|He's a great guy. He's my brother in law, and he's never mentioned Chris to me. I think he's doing his best to distance himself from this. You all should too.|John Kyle<ref>[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref>}}

According to an article written by his friend, syndicated cartoonist {{w|Ted Rall}}, Cole once came close to death from {{w|Necrotizing fasciitis|necrotizing fasciitis}} after an ER nurse made a misdiagnosis,<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2014/10/06/commentary/world-commentary/emergency-rooms-live-gunshot-wounds/#.VR7L5vnF-So</ref> and believes that 2016 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders's rise can be attributed to the "failure of propaganda."<ref>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2016/01/22/commentary/world-commentary/sanders-rise-fueled-by-the-failure-of-propaganda/#.Vq1dJrIrI8o</ref>
{{clear}}

Cole has co-hosted a free weekly podcast called LA GRANDE BOUFFE (THE BIG FEAST)<ref>https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/la-grande-bouffe-the-big-feast/id1120760479?mt=2</ref> since 23 April 2016.

In December 2017, Cole repeated his ''Toy Story'' trick by being the first critic to give ''{{w|Lady Bird (film)|Lady Bird}}'' a negative review, ruining its perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score from 196 previous reviewers. Cole added fuel to the firestorm of criticism he received by admitting to spoiling the film's score on purpose.<ref>https://thenextweb.com/opinion/2017/12/14/film-critic-spoiled-lady-birds-perfect-rotten-tomatoes-score-basically-admits-hes-troll/</ref>

On 30 September 2020, Cole allegedly sent flowers to Barb for her 79th birthday. Many people believe, however, that it wasn’t actually Cole, but a [[ween]] pretending to be him. After the flowers were received, Chris made a video, showing Barb’s gratitude for the flowers, and claiming that in Dimension C-197, Cole and Iron Man hang out a lot, and that he’ll get to meet Batman in New Jersey when the [[Dimensional Merge]] happens.

It remains unknown how Cole reacted to the news that Chris was committing [[Affair with Mother|incest]] with Barb, except for the fact that he stopped allowing [[Twitter]] users to reply to his tweets and deleted one tweet from [[July 2021]] which had been flooded with replies about incest.

==Biological father==
As stated above, Cole was kept in the dark about the identity of his true father. Jerry Harmon was Cole's stepfather and father figure for almost the entirety of his childhood.

According to Barb, the elusive Jack Dale Smithey was his biological father, whom she allegedly was married to before Cole was born.

At one point, Cole would make a trip to Richmond to get all of Barb's marriage certificates. As he suspected, there was no marriage certificate for a marriage to Jack Dale Smithey, nor Jerry Harmon. There was, however, one to a Ran Coleman Yeatts, whose middle name matched with Cole's first name. They divorced 2 months before he was born. In fact, he used to visit Cole as a "family friend."

Cole went even further and tracked Jack Dale Smithey down all the way to Florida, who confirmed Cole's suspicions. When Cole confronted Barb about the Jack revelations, she promptly hung up the phone.

While there is no definitive proof that Ran Coleman Yeatts is his biological father, such as a DNA test (he was dead by the time Cole found out), considering the similarities in their appearance and the timeline of Cole's birth, it can stand to reason that Ran is Cole's biological father.

That doesn't stop Barb and his [[slow in the minds|mentally stunted]] little brother from being in denial, however.

==Relationship with Barbara and Bob==
{{Quote|The crux of my problem with Barbara comes from two sources. The first is [[Bob]]'s bitter influence on her, which worked to separate our relationship just as Bob did with his own children with whom he has no association. In nearly 44 years of life, I have never met a meaner or more reprehensible {{w|Republican Party (United States)|Republican}} cur than Bob Chandler. I hope that you will e-mail me [[September 2011|when he dies]] so that I can celebrate. Our mutual hatred has never been a secret, and it points out Barbara's proclivity to isolate herself via scurrilous mates. The second and more compelling issue that permanently ruined my relationship with Barbara is the litany of lies she tells anyone who'll listen about the identity of my biological father and about her marriage history.|Cole Smithey on his complicated relationship with his biological mother and stepfather.<ref name="Email">[[Cole Smithey E-mails]]</ref>.}}
[[File:Bobcomes home copy.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A likely summary for Bob and Cole's relationship.]]
[[Image:0467-CWC18th20.jpg|thumb|Cole smiles alongside [[Barbara]] on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

Cole was not on good terms with [[Bob]] or [[Barbara]]. According to Cole, Bob worked his "bitter influence" on Barbara to separate her from Cole. He has "never met a meaner or more reprehensible Republican cur than Bob Chandler."<ref name="Email" /> In multiple emails to Chris, Cole asks to be informed when Bob dies so he can celebrate.

Barbara visited Cole only once in 27 years, whereas Cole had made a special effort to visit her several times. Cole's wife's family treats him more like family than his own. Chris has [[Message for John Kyle|complained]] that Cole is ignoring Barb's attempts to get in touch with him. It would seem that Cole has left his mother to her own devices. As the [[Financhu Crisis]] progressed, Barb has seemingly expressed interest in meeting Cole, although it's not clear if this is to try to mooch off of her son or if she wants to try to bond with him before she croaks.

Of course, Cole would do well not to bother with Chris and Barb's (dubious) pleas for a visit, given Barb's history of manipulation and dishonesty (such that he even once [[Cole Smithey E-mails|referred to her actions as "pathological behaviour"]]), not to mention her history of abusing him during his formative years.

Shortly after [[Bob_Chandler#Later_life.2C_poor_health_and_death|Bob's death]] on 6 [[September 2011]], a troll on [[/cow/|789chan]] took Cole's wish of knowing when his stepfather died, contacting him using the phone number he provided in his [[Cole Smithey E-mails|leaked emails]]. In spite of his vitriol towards Bob three years prior, he was apparently quite broken up by the news. While Cole was certainly upset at Bob, his reaction to Bob's actual death shows that he ultimately did sympathize with him. While no audio of this call has ever been released, its existence is confirmed by those who browsed the board at the time.<ref>[[CWCki Forums posts (other users)#Cole's reaction to Bob's death]]</ref><ref>http://archive.is/kHrWN A TinyChat thread posted days after Bob's death, confirming the call's existence.

[[File:26 June 2016 Cole Smithey drawing.jpeg||thumb|left|200px|Depicted burning his money instead of giving it to Chris, as drawn by Chris in June 2016. Note in the picture it says "mother and [[Transgender|sister]]."]]

For much of his life, Cole has actually gotten along much better with Chris than with either Bob or Barb, and possibly better than with any of his other direct relatives. Then again, when you don't actually know ''who'' your paternal relatives are, you have to take what you can get.

Cole was not around when Chris was growing up. Being nineteen years older, he was in California making a life for himself. Cole said that Barbara and Bob neglected Chris for years with the [[abusive babysitter]], which suggests that he believes that Chris's muteness in early life was their fault. When he was eventually able to speak again around age seven, Chris visited Cole in San Francisco along with Barb.<ref>[[Rental House Tour#Time to go]]</ref> This was the only time Chris had ever been on an airplane for 35 years,<ref>[[Mumble 1]]</ref> the only time he had ever been to the West Coast of the United States and one of the few times that he has left [[Virginia]].

Cole's relationship with his family became somewhat closer after he moved back to the East Coast in 1996. He came to visit them in Virginia on various occasions, although they never visited him in New York. For New Year's Day [[1998]] Chris gave Cole a [[Lego]] Band Stand and wished him a "Rocking New Year." However, in [[1999]], on a [[Spanish]] exercise, Chris described "Cole the Beedrill" as ''muy feo'' (very ugly), suggesting relations had strained, probably because of Barb (although he may also have been referring to the aspect of the actual Pokémon species).<ref>[[Manchester High Leaks]]</ref> Nevertheless, Cole visited for Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday party]] in [[2000]]. Later in the same year, for Cole's 37th birthday, Chris made him ''A CD For Cole Smithey!''. Naturally, the present had little to do with Cole and everything to do with Chris, even featuring a picture of Chris on the cover.

[[Image:0468-CWC&JCS.jpg|thumb|300px|The half-brothers hold their hands the same way on Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

The last time they set eyes on each other was at the 2004 Weston family Christmas party.<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 27]]</ref><ref>[[Catherine#The_bowling_outing]]</ref>

In [[July 2007]], Chris sent an e-mail asking for Cole's vote in the [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa'' contest]]. In return, Cole asked Chris to find out the truth about his father from Barbara. The timing of this request was probably not a coincidence, as Ran Coleman Yeatts had died a month prior.<ref>[http://ssdi.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ United States Social Security Death Index]</ref> Chris did ask his mother about it, but she maintained her version of the story (It's unclear why Cole expected anything else). Chris was more interested in the ''PaRappa'' contest than his brother's plight, showing just how self-absorbed he truly is (though in Chris's defense, getting involved in an awkward quarrel about parentage is a pretty odd price for a simple upvote on a video). Chris's dismissive attitude only resulted in Cole becoming even more bitter towards both Chris and Barbara than he already was. Suffice to say, Cole did not vote for Chris. To date, these remain the last known communications between the half-brothers as Cole probably distanced himself even further from Chris since only a couple of months later, [[The GAMe PLACe#The GAMe PLACe Photograph|the GAMe PLACe photograph]] was posted onto 4chan, thus beginning Chris's infamy on the internet.

In a leaked e-mail sent to Jackie on 14 May 2011, Chris wrote that Cole "has had mental problems since he hit his head on a bus, and has taken it out heavily on our mother." Some argue the story could be a lie Barbara told Chris to explain Cole's bitterness towards her while masking the issue that actually caused it.

[[File:Cole and Others Miis.png|thumb|right|300px|Cole (far right) as a [[Sonichu Amiibo|Mii]] in one of Chris's [[Super Smash Bros. Videos]], ''Family Needs to appreciate Family'']]

In recent years, Chris has made numerous efforts to get in touch with Cole, to no avail. In [[October 2013]] he told his friend [[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails|Rebeckah]], "I have no confirmed or direct contact with him in NY; he doesn't respond to email, twitter feed, Facebook, YouTube, etcetera, either. So, I am most unable to reach him at all."<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> On 22 [[June 2013]], Chris attempted to contact Cole via video. He recorded a message directed to John Kyle,<ref name="Message">[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref> Cole's brother-in-law, who sang at his wedding (Kyle would later reveal that, until the video was brought to his attention by a troll, he had not even known that his sister's husband had a half-brother).<ref name="JohnKyleVid" /> Chris expressed anger at Cole for not inviting him and Barb to his wedding. He also claimed that relatives, including [[Jerry Harmon]] and [[Jack Dale Smithey]], had been lying to Cole about Barb, making him believe that Barb was abusive, when according to Chris, she's a good person.

In the same month, Chris tried to communicate with Cole on [[Twitter]],<ref>[[2009-2016 tweets#29 June 2013]]</ref> basically telling him to come back home so he could [[White_knights#Chris_cares_only_for_himself|dump his familial responsibilities on him]] and go on his [[Sweetheart Search]]. He also suggested that Cole had some mental/physical problems of his own ''(even talking down to him at one point)'' right before activating the "Playing for Sympathy" card, lamenting his time in jail.

In [[August 2015]], Chris [[August 2015 Facebook Posts#Please Take Care Of Barb So I Can Go Out And Have Sex With Hot Lesbians|tried yet again]] to reach out to Cole, this time through [[Facebook]], hoping that a flurry of hashtags would work their magic. In [[November 2015]] he returned to [[YouTube]] with a [[Family Needs to appreciate Family|video]] depiction of a battle in which Chris and his allies face off against Cole, [[David Alan Chandler|his other step-brother]], and his [[Carol Suzanne Chandler|step-sister]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'' "OUR Mother is Still Alive; I REALLY want you to make amends and get close, once again, to her before Her time runs out," he wrote in the description. The following day he arranged a [[Sonichu and Rosechu figure collection toy battle!|similar fight]] among his [[Amiibo]] figurines and angrily accused Cole of being possessed by the spirit of [[Count Graduon]]. He posted an image of his Cole Amiibo on Facebook. In this spat of postings Chris attempts to appear concerned about Cole not being around for their mother's twilight years, thinly veiling his [[Monthly Tugboat|real concerns]].

Chris has two explanations for this falling-out with his half-brother, both fed to him by Barb. First, Cole has been entirely misled about Barb's character by the lies of other family members. "She is the opposite of what hate they filled Cole's head with," Chris asserts.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> Second, Cole's "mental problems" caused by his childhood injury mean that he has "taken it out heavily on our mother."<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 26]]</ref> "Lord Knows What Else goes on through his head," Chris has concluded, demonstrating that more than anything else, Cole is almost entirely unknown to Chris. For the most part, the main trait Chris seems to be aware of regarding his half-brother is that he has a career and makes a living. This, in traditional Chris fashion, means opportunity and progressively his attempts to reach out have more and more focused on Cole financially supporting Chris and Barb, returning Chris to the idyllic balance he enjoyed with Bob as the responsible man in the house.

In [[June 2016]], Chris posted a Facebook rant about Cole alleging that he and his wife spend two thousand dollars a month on rent for an apartment "a few buildings down East 90th from Carnigee [''sic''] Hall" and that he once lived at Carnegie Hall itself.<ref>[[June 2016 Facebook posts]]</ref> In reality, [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hall|Carnegie Hall]] is not near East 90th Street, and nobody lives ''at'' Carnegie Hall—it's a concert hall, not an apartment building. East 90th Street actually passes through [[wikipedia:Carnegie Hill|Carnegie ''Hill'']], a neighborhood on Manhattan's Upper East Side. This lack of research didn't stop Chris from depicting his half-brother as having money to "[[Chris and hypocrisy|piss and burn]]" while simultaneously [[Lego|begging]] [[Transformers|him]] [[PlayStation 4|for]] [[Chris and money|money]].

In May 2017, Chris mocked Cole on Twitter, stating [[Chris and hypocrisy|"Oh my gosh, my half brother is suddenly begging for money now"]]. This was in response to Cole asking his fans to pledge money to him on Patreon in a since-deleted video, suggesting he has also [[Financhu Crisis|hit rock bottom]]. Chris said he would pledge to him, but he still hasn't apologized or made up with Barb. Ironically, Chris tried to pledge to him but Cole blocked him, making it clear once again that he really wanted nothing to do with his old life.<ref>[[CWCSonichu-NightStar2891 DMs]]</ref><ref>[[The Place chats - ProjectSNT and Opuscon789#Apologising to SNT for Redesign Rage]]</ref>

In December 2017, Chris wanted to drive to New York to confront Cole. He tried to channel his Sonichu power to conjure up Cole's address, but was unsuccessful and did not attempt to make the trip.<ref>[[Idea Guy Q&A]]</ref> [[Joshua Wise]] discouraged Chris from doing this, leading to him dropping the idea.

[[File:Certificate of Authenticity with Barb's signature.jpg|thumb|A certificate sent to anyone who bought Cole's stuff]]

Chris began offering pieces of Cole's belongings for sale via [[eBay]] in March 2018, mostly his comic books. He placed great value in the fact that these comic books belonged to Cole, supposedly seeing him as some sort of celebrity, even referring to him as his mantle "The World's Smartest Film Critic." He even went so far as to make certificates that confirmed that these comic books belonged to Cole.

On 30 [[September 2020]], Barb received a bouquet of flowers for her birthday, ostensibly from Cole (although it is more likely from a [[ween]]). Chris ([[Spirit possession#Sonichu|while roleplaying as Sonichu]]) recorded a video of Barb thanking Cole, before turning the camera back to himself and informing Cole that he (Cole) had been hanging out with various superheroes from Marvel and DC, and encouraging Cole to get back in contact with Chris via his publicly available cell phone number.<ref>[[To Cole Smithey, from Barb, and Sonichu (Prime)]]</ref>

==Cole in the comics==
Throughout the original run of [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']], Cole was referenced in the [[CWCipedia]] profile for [[Rosechu]] as "Professor Cole," assumed to be a version of Cole Smithey, listed as the one who gave [[Kel]] the {{w|Pichu|Pichu}} who would become Rosechu. Chris later marketed a custom Amiibo depicting Cole as a [[Jerkop]], seemingly foreshadowing his presence as a villain in the CWCville universe. It was not clear for several years whether the original "Professor Cole" character was [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|still canon]].

In ''[[Sonichu 7]]'', the comic version of Chris mentions Cole by his full name, Joseph Cole Smithey, to classmate Joseph Herring. This was later [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retconned]] to "Joe Cool" Smithey.

Cole finally appears in [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]] as, indeed, a Jerkop, brainwashed by [[Count Graduon]]. [[Reldnahc]] uses Cole to "distract [Chris] with family" in order to get the drop on him. He is bizarrely depicted as a gray-haired, mustached old man with a trilby. Comic Chris immediately identifies him as his brother [[Chris and writing|despite Cole never appearing in the comic before]], made all the more confusing by the same battle also featuring Chris's imaginary [[Crystal Weston Chandler (sister)|sister]] and [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc|evil twin]].

In 2019, Chris confirmed that Cole was the Pokémon Professor during 2003, but stated his "methods and ideals were varied," and his work was "faltering" by 2005, leading to his demotion in favour of a smoking-hot graduate whose body Chris describes in vivid detail. A year later, he "quite" and moved to New York to become a full-time movie reviewer.<ref>[[April 2019 social media posts#CWCVille's Pokemon Professor]]</ref>

'''Barbara 'Barb' Weston Chandler'''<ref>[[:File:Barbara Chandler Fail to Yield Right-of-Way charge.png]]</ref> (''née'' '''Weston''', formerly '''Yeatts''' and '''Smithey'''; born 1 {{w|1941#October|October 1941}}<ref name=Harvey155>https://web.archive.org/web/20170903151241/http://www.harveypowers.com/wynn/wynn/d155.html</ref>) is the widow of [[Bob Chandler]] and the mother of [[Christian Weston Chandler]] and [[Cole Smithey]]. The sole recognition for her motherly qualities is the Mother of the Year [[2000]] Award Chris created for her.<ref>[[A Week With Christian Chandler#Page 13|A Week With Christian Chandler, page 13]]</ref> She has not won the award since.

Though Bob has remained relatively popular with [[trolls]] and Christorians alike, the same cannot be said for Barbara, who has been consistently disliked by nearly everyone but Chris and her late husband – with many members of her own family distancing themselves from her at least since at least the funeral of one of [[Aunt Corrina|Chris's aunts]]. Whereas Bob eventually recognized his shortcomings as a parent to Chris and attempted to correct them late into his life, Barbara has consistently been one of the biggest enablers of Chris's bad behavior since he was a child, on top of emotionally manipulating, threatening, and on occasion physically abusing him (elements which Chris would turn around and use on her later in her life). Barbara has been instrumental in turning Chris into the spoiled manchild that he is, and like Bob before her, has encouraged him not to seek a serious career path in favor of [[Monthly tugboat|getting welfare off of his condition]], even though he could get a minimum-wage job and still qualify for welfare.

It has long been suspected that she has some form of narcissistic personality disorder, which goes hand-in-hand with what we know about her neglectful to abusive relationship with Chris, along with his half-brother [[Cole Smithey]], who received much worse treatment from her. Her hoarding habits also indirectly led to the [[2014 house fire]], as sparks from a coffee maker that had no business being plugged into an extension cord in the bathroom burned the paper, plastic, and wood in the room before engulfing the house, and much of the [[Financhu Crisis]] is subsequently on her.

For much of the Classic Era of Christory, Barbara was extremely obese and napped a lot (earning her the nickname "{{w|Snorlax}}," after the fat, sleepy [[Pokémon]] of the same name), but she has since shed a ton of weight in her twilight years. This sharp loss of weight, loss of hair color, and knowledge of her son's status as a living internet meme all factored into her role in appearing in multiple begging videos.

On 27 [[June 2021]], Chris began [[Affair with Mother|an incestuous relationship with Barbara]],<ref>[[WCT DMs#New sweetheart]]</ref> claiming to have sex every three nights.<ref>[[WCT DMs#Every three nights]]</ref> A month later, on 27 [[July 2021]],<ref>[[WCT DMs#Asking about Incest Call leak]]</ref> Chris decided to brag about the identity of his sexual partner [[Incest Call|in a call over the Signal app]] and [[Incest Texts|in text messages]] the following day. The material was leaked to the general public at approximately past midnight on 30 July; later that morning, a [[welfare check]] was conducted at [[14 Branchland Court]], and as a result, Chris was [[ban]]ned from the house and from contact with Barbara for a week, and Barbara was sent to the hospital for a senior care inspection.<ref name=nullsummary>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Null)#Summing Up Post-Incest Leak]]</ref> On 1 August, [[Incest Arrest|Chris was arrested]] at [[Regency Inn Richmond]] and charged with incest.<ref>[[:File:Charged.png]]</ref>

Barbara returned to her residence at some point in [[August 2021]].<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#Status of 14 Branchland Court]]</ref><ref>[[Fan visits#e1ectricthunder]]</ref> She then had a phone call with Chris on 28 September, and according to Chris, Barbara both visited<ref name=gl>[[Goddess Log]]</ref> and wrote him a letter in [[October 2021]] during his stay in jail.<ref name=25letter>[[Jail Letter - 25 October 2021 (Virginia fan)]]</ref><ref>[[The Chris Chan Conspiracy#Episode 5: The Resurrection of Chris Chan]]</ref>

In [[November 2021]], Barbara failed to yield the right-of-way while driving<ref>[[:File:Barbara Chandler Fail to Yield Right-of-Way charge.png]]</ref> and was injured in a car crash from which she suffered two broken ribs and a concussion and her van was wrecked,<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#Confirming Car Crash]]</ref> and she was helped to recover from it by extended family members.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 27 November 2021]]</ref>

Barbara and Chris no longer live together, with Barbara continuing to reside in [[Ruckersville]] and Chris moving to [[Big Island]], VA.

==Spelling of name==
Barbara's high school yearbook and both her marriage licenses spell her full maiden name as ''Barbara '''Ann''' Weston'', as do other sources like Harvey Powers's genealogical website<ref name=Harvey155/> (her divorce decree omits the middle name entirely). Chris, however, usually (though not consistently) spells her name as ''Barbara '''Anne''' Weston Chandler'' with an e. This may be because he believes she is named after [[Anne Boleyn]].

Barbara's name is misspelled as "Barbra" in the [[Emergency Protective Order]] filed against Chris in [[July 2021]].

==Early life==
{{Quote|Her life was a Redneck Simple Country one. She had mastered sewing, mending, and making clothes and other farm-life facets and Church-Going habits.|Chris describes his mother's childhood<ref name=jailletter11may>[[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022]]</ref>}}
[[Image:Barb1960.jpg|thumb|left|Barbara's senior photo from high school. While she looks pretty here, she would not age well.]]

Barbara is the fifth child (out of eight) of Joseph Otto "Joe" Weston (1896–1955), a lifelong [[RandomSong1|farmer]] and carpenter and Carrie Edna Wynn (1911–1968), a housewife and later a shoe company worker in Lynchburg.<ref>https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C958-RFTD?i=1&cc=2377565&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AQVRC-X438</ref> They married in February 1927, when Carrie was 15 years old and Joseph [[Pedofork|was 30]]. They lied about their ages in their marriage certificate.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20170825073641/http://www.harveypowers.com/wynn/wynn/d141.html</ref><ref>https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSZT-H9QK-J?cc=1726957</ref> Joe died in 1955, after falling from a horse-drawn wagon.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20200603075643/http://genealogytrails.com/vir/charlotte/obits_w.html</ref> Barb's maternal grandfather was an alcoholic moonshiner, who carried out affairs and failed to provide even the most basic support for her mother's family.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180425032751/http://www.harveypowers.com:80/wynn/wynn/d118.html</ref> For whatever reason, Barb believes that she is descended from [[Anne Boleyn]], but this is impossible given that Elizabeth I, Boleyn's only daughter, died without an heir. She also thinks that a more recent ancestor named [[Daniel Weston]] boarded the ''Mayflower'', but no such person exists.

[[Image:0839-MomDesi.JPG|thumb|Barb, emboldened by her hoard, evolved into a Snorlax over time.]]

Barb grew up in a low-income farming household in [[Wikipedia:Red Oak, Virginia|Red Oak, Virginia]], a rural area in the far south of the state. An early memory from when she was two years old was seeing her father covered in silver paint, having fallen off the roof of their house while painting it and nearly killed himself.<ref name=jailletter11may></ref> She graduated from {{w|Randolph-Henry High School}} in {{w|Charlotte Court House, Virginia}} in 1960. Due to family poverty, she was obliged to sew her own clothing.<ref name=younger>[[June 2021 social media posts#Chris larps as his younger self]]</ref> While at Randolph-Henry, she was treasurer of her school's chapter of the [[Women's rights|Future Homemakers of America]], a reporter of the Randolph-Henry safety bus patrol, a typist for her school yearbook, ''The Log'', and a member of the [[Spanish]] Club. She was also a member of many other school organizations, suggesting that she was very involved in extracurricular activities while in high school. She was also known for her perfect attendance record from her sophomore through her senior years of high school. According to her senior yearbook, her nickname in high school was Bobcat.

Barb had two boyfriends in high school, one of whom was [[Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Tom Ashby]], who would later marry her younger sister Harriet. According to a [[January 2012 Facebook Posts#February is coming up|Facebook status]] Chris wrote on 29 January 2012, Barbara lost her virginity during her high school years. Why Chris knows this is anyone's guess, although it's possible that he learned the basic principles of [[Honest Content]] from Mommy Dearest. In a jail letter from 10 May 2022, however, Chris denies that Barbara ever had sex with her high school boyfriends, although he claims that her sisters accused her of doing so.<ref name=jailletter11may></ref>

According to a [[Incest Texts|leaked message]] to [[Bella]], Barbara has had sex with eight different men over the course of her life (not including Chris). Chris claims she told him that she has never [[mass debating|masturbated]].

Shortly after graduating from high school in 1960, Barb left Red Oak and, "...decided to set off on her own... [[Love Quest|in search for romance and her future]]." Apparently, she left in order to go to college, breaking off her relationship with Tom, who was one year her junior. After Barb moved away, "her siblings, cousins, and others in Redoak" began to spread rumors about her and call her a slut in her absence. Around this time her mother also disowned her.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Chris has scabies too]]</ref> As it turned out, her relationship with her family would never get much better. Barb's relationship with Harriet and Tom is especially strained. Chris stated in a leaked video that he and his mother are not liked by the members of the Weston family who have outlived Corrina.<ref>[[Message for John Kyle]]</ref>

According to Chris, Barb majored in "accounting and numbers."<ref name=younger></ref> Where Barb attended college is unknown, but it may have been {{w|Wake Forest College}}, where her future first husband, Ran Coleman Yeatts, was studying at the time. Wherever it was, she probably dropped out in 1961, when he graduated and married her. Her divorce report with Jerry and marriage certificate to Bob both say that she had not completed any years of college education.

==Cole and his various fathers==
[[Image:0467-CWC18th20.jpg|thumb|left|Cole visits for Chris's [[My big 18th party (story)|18th birthday]].]]

From approximately 1961 through 1980, Barbara lived in [[Richmond]]. At one point, she aspired to be an English teacher and occasionally filled in for other teachers as a substitute.<ref>[[Regina_e-mails#Chris_answers_a_bunch_of_questions,_is_still_a_virgin]]</ref><ref>[[Rental_House_Tour#Barb's_family_heritage]]</ref> Ultimately, however, she ended up working in a series of secretarial roles, including at {{w|Reynolds Metals Company International Headquarters|Reynolds Metals Company}}.<ref>[[Miyamoto_emails#A_Word_from_Snorlax]]</ref>

Over the course of Barb's adult life before meeting Bob, she had relationships with five men, three of whom are known by name.<ref name=jailletter11may>[[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022]]</ref>

Barbara gave birth to [[Cole Smithey|Cole]] in 1963. Throughout his life, Barbara has lied to Cole about who his father is.

Based on his experiences with various stepfathers, [[Cole Smithey|Cole]] thinks that Barbara has a "...proclivity to isolate herself via scurrilous mates."<ref name="coleemail2">[[:File:Cole 07-03-06-2.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 2]]</ref> The use of "scurrilous" in this statement makes no sense, suggesting [[Cole Smithey|Cole]] tries to use [[Chris and English|big]] words to impress people – a family trait, perhaps.

Records found by Cole in Richmond show that Barb married one '''Ran ''Cole''man Yeatts''', a personnel analyst for DPT, on June 17, 1961. Yeatts was born on 27 December 1939 in {{w|Pittsylvania County, Virginia}} but grew up in {{w|South Hill, Virginia|South Hill}}, a town about 35 miles east of Red Oak which also happens to be the hometown of Barb's mother Carrie and her moonshiner dad. Yeatts graduated from {{w|Park_View_High_School_(South_Hill,_Virginia)|Park View High School}} from South Hill in 1957 and later that year he was enrolled at {{w|Wake Forest College}} in {{w|Winston-Salem, North Carolina}} (now Wake Forest University).<ref>https://lib.digitalnc.org/record/28659?ln=en#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=94&r=0&xywh=2347%2C1534%2C681%2C414</ref><ref>https://lib.digitalnc.org/record/28685?ln=en#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=77&r=0&xywh=1396%2C1140%2C926%2C414</ref><ref>https://lib.digitalnc.org/record/28686?ln=en#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=81&r=0&xywh=460%2C1252%2C1363%2C609</ref><ref>https://lib.digitalnc.org/record/28677?ln=en#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=64&r=0&xywh=2241%2C1842%2C1441%2C875</ref> An {{w|Alpha Sigma Phi}} brother, he graduated from Wake Forest with a BA degree in human resources management in spring 1961, a few months before he and Barb married.<ref>http://www.archive.org/stream/howler1960wake/howler1960wake_djvu.txt</ref> Coincidentally, Bob Chandler was also living in Winston-Salem around the same time, where he was married to Patricia Faye Harley and working as an engineer.

According to their marriage certificate, Ran, a technician for the Virginia State Highway Department, was living in Richmond at the time of the marriage, while Barb, a secretary for Glidden Company of Richmond, was still living in Red Oak. However, two newspaper articles from April and June 1961 stated that Barb was already living in Richmond. They were married at a Baptist church in {{w|Wylliesburg, Virginia}} near Red Oak (which the divorce documents misspell as "Sylliesburg").

A divorce was granted to Barb on 15 May 1963, at which point she was pregnant with Cole and living in Richmond. The decree states that Ran deserted her on 28 April 1962, although the final digit in "1962" appears to have been altered from a "3". The divorce license lists zero children. Cole was born two months later, on 24 July 1963.

To further fuel Cole's rage, Yeatts would visit him during his childhood and be introduced as a "friend of the family".<ref name="Cole Smithey E-mails" /> After Cole hired a private detective, Barbara hung up on him when he called to ask about his father.<ref name="Cole Smithey E-mails" />

Yeatts later remarried and died aged 67 on 6 June 2007. His obituary in the ''Richmond Times-Dispatch'' makes no mention of Cole or Barb, although it indicates that Ran had a grandson also named Cole.<ref>[https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/timesdispatch/name/ran-yeatts-obituary?id=5417433 Ran Yeatts Obituary]</ref>

Per the [[Cole Smithey E-mails]], it appears that Barb's nickname for Ran was '''"Ramblin' Randy"''', although there is a slim chance that nickname refers to another ex-lover of Barb's whom we know nothing about.

===Jack Smithey===
Barb insists that Cole's father is '''Jack Dale Smithey,''' to whom she claims she was once married. However, Cole was unable to find a marriage license for the couple or any photographs from their alleged wedding.<ref name="coleemail2" /> Indeed, Christorians have been frustrated in their efforts to locate any such evidence; their ability and persistence in documenting everything Chris-adjacent rivals that of any private detective. In 1995, Cole's friend, syndicated cartoonist {{w|Ted Rall}}, made an Internet post questioning the whereabouts of Jack Dale Smithey. According to the post, Smithey lived in Richmond in 1963 (the year Cole was born) and was a Merchant Marine. He later worked as a trucker for Pilot Trucking in North Carolina but had not been heard of since 1964.<ref>http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/SURNAMES/1995-04/0798938259</ref> Cole eventually hired a private detective who tracked down Jack Smithey in {{w|Sarasota, Florida}}.<ref name="Cole Smithey E-mails">[[Cole Smithey E-mails]]</ref>

Although there is no hard evidence that Barb was ever married to Jack, newspaper articles from the 1960s indicate that she used the surname Smithey up until she married Jerry Harmon in 1968. According to Barbara (as quoted by Chris), she and Jack had a "fancy" wedding which was attended by her sisters and mother. Chris told Cole that Barbara considers Jack "a total drunk and loser".<ref name="Cole Smithey E-mails">[[Cole Smithey E-mails]]</ref>

In [[July 2021]], (in the middle of his incestuous affair with her), Chris asked Barbara about her relationship with Jack.

{{quote|Short story of it is that Jack and Barbie went out, sexed up, knocked her up.

Then he hit the road; was not in it to be a daddy. The life on the open road called out to him more.|Chris on Jack}}

Chris also mentioned that no photos of Jack were kept at home, though they did have photos of Jerry.<ref>[[WCT DMs#Barbara's ex]]</ref>

Jack died in 2010 at the age of 81 in Winston-Salem.

===Jerry Harmon===
[[Image:JerryHarmonandBarb.PNG|thumb|Jerry Harmon performing magic tricks with Barb assisting him, December 1968.]]
[[Image:Jerry_Harmon_WRVA_Bio.JPG|thumb|Jerry's employee bio in a booklet published by radio station WRVA, 1950.]]

'''Walter Jerome "Jerry" Harmon, Jr.''' was Barbara's second (or third) ex-husband and the alleged sinister stepfather of [[Cole Smithey]], Chris's older half-brother. Jerry was born on July 1st, 1931 in {{w|Springfield, Massachusetts}} but grew up in {{w|Millboro, Virginia}} and later Richmond. Jerry's father died when he was 18 months old.<ref name="HarmonVDAdamo">https://scholarlycommons.law.wlu.edu/va-supreme-court-records-vol195/14/</ref> Much like Bob, Jerry had a technical background; he had graduated from {{w|Capitol Technology University}} (then Capital Radio Engineering Institute) in {{w|Laurel, Maryland}} and worked as a {{w|Broadcast_engineering|broadcast engineer}} at local radio station WRVA around 1950.<ref>https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Station-Albums/WRVA-25th-II.pdf WRVA 25th Anniversary booklet, W. Jerome "Jerry" Harmon bio top center of page 8.</ref> In April 1951, Jerry fathered a child out of wedlock with Nancy Louise Janetos. The mother offered the child up for adoption until she and Jerry married in September of 1951. The couple eventually regained custody of their baby in 1953 following a legal case ''Harmon v. D'Adamo''<ref name="HarmonVDAdamo" /> that was taken all the way to the Virginia Supreme Court. At some point, Jerry ended up in the military, which Cole has written about in two articles. According to Cole, Jerry was a combat medic during the Korean War before switching his role to train his soldiers in specialized combat techniques, such as decapitation using piano wire (with watermelons standing in for actual heads during this training). He was also a captain in the Civil Air Patrol and would pilot planes during and after the Korean War. One time, he was injured after crash-landing his plane during a fighter pilot mission in Korea.

According to the adoption court case records, Jerry wished to further study medicine at {{w|University of Richmond}}, though it is unclear if this ever happened. Somewhat ironically, while married to Barb, Jerry served in different roles with the Richmond [[Chris and mental healthcare|Mental Health]] Association,<ref>https://www.newspapers.com/image/829546397/?terms=%22Jerry%20Harmon%22%20&match=1 Richmond Times-Dispatch 28 Jan 1973</ref> where he was known for building a model of the human nervous system, which he brought to speaking engagements.

Barbara claims to have married Jerry after her relationships with Jack Dale Smithey and Ran Coleman Yeatts. However, in the course of Cole's investigation into his family history, he was unable to find a marriage certificate.<ref name="Cole Smithey E-mails" /> That being said, there is a divorce record which claims that Jerry and Barbara married on 18 June 1968 in Washington D.C. and divorced on 7 January 1980 after one year of living apart, three weeks before Bob had divorced his first wife Patricia. In a Facebook comment from 2020, Cole claims that Jerry adopted him in 1966.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/blendonlodge339/posts/1084760088251976</ref><ref name="colesmithey">https://www.colesmithey.com/articles/2017/09/operation-snowball-my-first-career-in-show-business.html</ref>

{{quote|I grew up in an abusive household with Barbara and my former stepfather Jerry, where physical and mental punishments ran the gamut from bare-assed beatings to cold showers to bizarre scenarios acted out with glee by two deeply neurotic adults...

[[Image:JerryBarb&Cole.jpg|thumb|Jerry Harmon with Barbara and young Cole in late 1960s/early 1970s]]
In both his article "[[Saturday Night Special]]" and "[[Operation Snowball|Operation Snowball: My First Career in Show Business]]," Cole would further elaborate on his first stepfather in his early and later life (look above). According to Cole, Jerry was a professional magician for decades since he was 20, was a dedicated {{w|Freemasonry|freemason}} and was an active member of the Invisible Lodge. Jerry lived with Barbara in a second-floor apartment adjacent to the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond during the early 1970s. Jerry allegedly kept a gun in his nightstand drawer, which his stepson would play with, and was out cheating on his wife when an intruder came to the apartment, forcing Barb to retrieve and fire the gun to scare them off. The shot ricocheted off the floor and the apartment's steel door and nearly killed Cole as a result, hitting the wall a hair's breadth behind his head. Cole would later remove the first article from his blog.

Cole describes how Jerry, Barb, and he took part in an annual traveling magic show which performed at mental hospitals and veteran hospitals in Virginia every [[Christmas]] season from 1967 to 1976. The trio performed under the name of "King Karnak, Barbie, and Cole". Each show would end with Jerry chopping off Barb's head with a guillotine. During this time and later of his life, Jerry worked as a radio announcer for WEZS radio station. Cole claimed that the former Virginia Governor {{w|Mills Godwin}} would pilot them around in a Cessna Twin-Engine plane to their magic show, and Jerry would sometimes pilot the plane.

Cole would further elaborate more about Jerry. He was an ambulance driver for the Richmond volunteer rescue squad; he also taught [[Jerkop|police recruits]] Standard First Aid before he began working for the mental health agency headquartered at Monument Avenue. Cole even said that Jerry cared about mental health movements so much that the whole purpose of the magic show performance at local hospitals was to provide entertainment for the patients, war veteran patients and mentally ill patients. Aside from this, Jerry was also the owner of his own company Karnak Enterprises, which specializes in production work, special effects and entertainment.<ref name="colesmithey" /><ref>https://www.facebook.com/blendonlodge339/posts/1084760088251976</ref><ref name=sjf>http://sjf.stparchive.com/Archive/SJF/SJF01221981P08.php</ref> Interestingly, Jerry married a woman named Rose LaNora Lotts in 1981, whom he first met when she was employed as an assistant for his "King Karnak" act, suggesting that she replaced Barb in more ways than one.<ref name=sjf></ref>

[[Bob Chandler|Bob]] and Barbara met at "Maddy's Pub" in Richmond<ref>[[April 2012 Facebook posts#Fear of the future]]</ref> (probably Matt's British Pub in Shockoe Slip, where Bob was a sing-along leader)<ref>[[It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]]</ref> one night in 1979.

They married in 1980.<ref name=annivspecial></ref> Chris claims that, "Barbara, in her own words, married him because 'He owned a house'."<ref name=jailletter11may></ref> Later that year Bob was transferred from Richmond to [[Charlottesville]]. They settled in the outlying suburb of [[Ruckersville]].

Barbara worked for several years as a finance secretary for numerous companies and businesses, included Virginia Power (VEPCO, today called [[Wikipedia:Dominion Energy|Dominion Energy]]) and First North American National Bank (partnered with {{w|Circuit City}}.)<ref>https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Date_with_Emily#Eating_spaghetti_and_conversing_(0:36:49%E2%80%930:44:46):~:text=Bob%3A%20And%20uh%2C%20she%20worked%20for%2C%20um%2CCircuit%20City%20for%20a%20while%20before%20she%20retired.</ref>
<ref name=younger></ref>

In September [[1993]], Chris and Bob moved from Ruckersville to Chesterfield County near Richmond so that Chris would be able to attend middle school at a mainstream school.<ref>[[Chris's Wikipedia profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> Barbara did not accompany them and remained in Ruckersville. Chris claimed that the separation allowed Barbara to continue working at her job until retirement and that she still visited Bob and Chris every weekend during the time she lived separately from them. After going into retirement when Chris was in the eighth grade (early 1996), Barbara came to live with her husband and son in Chesterfield.<ref>[[Mailbag 32#Chris is no stranger to stupid name changes]]</ref><ref>[[:Image:0078-CWCNote2.jpg]]</ref>

With both Barbara and Bob retired, they spent their twilight years from 2000 onward living in their Ruckersville home with Chris. It is difficult to ascertain what their relationship was like, but sources such as the tour of the house would suggest that Chris's parents neglected the [[14_Branchland_Court|family home]] and spent most of their time apart in separate areas of the house. According to Chris, Barbara had not had sex with Bob for at least two decades before his death. They began sleeping in different rooms sometime around the mid-2000s "because they're not as close as they should, used to or can be".<ref>[[IRC (27 December 2008)]]</ref> It can be presumed that as they got older, they grew more distant, but never to the point of wanting a divorce.

Barbara became a widow on 6 September 2011 when Bob died.<ref name="BobObit">http://web.archive.org/web/20130211071324/http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/dailyprogress/obituary.aspx?n=robert-franklin-chandler&pid=153539600</ref>

==Relations with Chris==

[[File:Barbara1993cropped.png|thumb|Barb c. 1993.]]
[[Image:0033-MommasBirthday.jpg|thumb|Age was not kind to Barb.]]

===Abuse and manipulation===
{{quote|And he told me of mom saying she was going to pack up and leave the house, then I ran downstairs, finding her on the couch; she was soo miserable and sad; she talked of Wanting to Die, "you don't even have to change my clothes, you can just bury me in what I have on." I was soo sad and crying and soo sorry for the way I misbehaved; we hugged and made up a bit.|An example of Barb's manipulation.<ref name=magfest>[[LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2011-2012#Borb vs MAGfest]]</ref>}}

Barb has had a long history of abusing and/or [[Chris and manipulation|manipulating]] her children. For example, she has often used threats of suicide to guilt Chris into obeying her whims. When Bob and Chris once tried to discuss cleaning the hoard with Barb, she responded by threatening suicide.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Barb's Hoarding]]</ref>
She also threatened suicide to her family during the [[Ivy]] Saga, supposedly as a response to the stress she was going through.<ref name="IvyQ&A"/>

In an episode from 2011, when Chris failed to book himself a hotel room for [[MAGfest]], due to being broke, and planned to sleep in his car,<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 29]]</ref> Barb prevented him from going by pointing out the, "...crime risk and chilly temperatures," threatening to lock him out of their house, claiming that she would pack up and leave, and later told him she wanted to die. After Chris folded and went to his room to cry about it, she gave him a "half-payment of a copy of DC Universe Online to make up for not allowing [him] to go."<ref name=magfest></ref> Later that year, after Chris became a [[tomgirl]], Barb tried to stop him from wearing dresses and make-up by telling him she feared he would kill her. She then ordered him to sit down, and she cut his hair.<ref name="jackie26"></ref>

In addition, Barb has used the specter of old age for her own gain, by manipulating Chris into thinking she will have a heart attack. This tactic has been used so often that Chris will panic and call 911 if Barb does not answer the phone when he calls her to check up on her when he is out of the house.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Welfare Check on Barbara]]</ref> When Barb and Chris were both arrested for [[assault and battery]], Chris was extremely worried about her health, saying in an email:

{{quotebox|My mother fought the police in my defense, and she was handcuffed and I was emotionally distraught, I screamed and Screamed and SCREAMED, until an ambulance came for my mother to take her to UVA Hospital; she was okay, but her Blood Pressure was high.

I prayed a LOT to Jesus for my release and safe return home with my mother. And I banged the cell door with both my feet while lying on a folding mattress on the floor (to get those bastards to let me see and talk to my mother

Only after seeing my mother in her suit pass by my second cell, did I start to calm down. I was REALLY WORRIED about my mother and her health. She Needed Me, and I Needed Her.}}

[[Marvin]] summed up Chris's relationship with Barb:

{{quoteboxgreen|Well, I don't think they talk very much. However, no, Chris is Barb's hand servant. She screams for him and he comes running. She has him change the newspaper the dogs shit on, she has him run errands to bring her stuff, and she used to have him haul her goodwill crap to the car, and then from the car into the house.

''...''

I think Barb's yelling has gotten much less frequent nowadays. It seems like she's pretty feeble nowadays. Chris is just as scared of Barb as he used to be though. I don't think he realizes how much power he has over Barb nowadays.

They're really physically affectionate in a strange way. Chris is pretty touchy feely with women because of habits he learned by spending time with Barb.<ref name=qualified>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Barb and Chris]]</ref>}}

After Bob died, Barb's abuse of Chris escalated. According to Marvin, she treated him as a hand servant and forced him to be on-call at all times. Around [[2013]], she forced Chris to move out of his bedroom, specifically so she could bark orders at him more efficiently, by throwing a tantrum and wrecking his possessions.

{{quoteboxgreen|a few months to a year before the fire, Chris stopped being permitted to sleep separately from Barb, in his bedroom. He had to sleep closer to Barb, because she needed to be able to yell for him to go to [[sheetz]] and buy her crap, and he wasn't able to hear her up in his bedroom. He kind of tried to resist at first, but then she got super pissed and threw a tantrum. She wrecked his room and like flipped everything over because he was trying to sleep on his own.<ref name=qualified/>}}

===Financial exploitation===
{{quote|she is also being Very Annoying. “Christine, Let’s put this random good item on eBay. I REALLY Need the Money for not only my bill payments, but also, we need more food here. I am greedy too.”

“OH! You sold something of Yours? I Want $50 From That”, she is constantly pestering and bugging me.

[[Image:0028-ChristopherWMom1.jpg|thumb|[[Affair with Mother|Horrifyingly qualifies as foreshadowing.]]]]

According to Cole, Bob and Barbara left Chris alone every day for years with the [[abusive babysitter]] while going out drinking, effectively ignoring the manifestation of the earliest symptoms of autism.<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> After Chris's initial diagnosis, and after their negligence was inevitably thrown back in their face, Barbara resorted to any means necessary to coax Chris into talking, most notoriously by bribing him with toys.<ref>[[Song of Christian]]</ref>

[[Image:ImWorkingOnIt.png|thumb|left|Chris and Barbara in an intimate moment. A less subtle case of foreshadowing.]]

While both of Chris's parents are largely responsible for his current state, Barb has more often than not been the most active in protecting Chris from recognizing any failure or shortcoming on his part, doing everything from being his sole commission with [[Cutco]] to going as his date to his [[Manchester High School#The Senior Prom|senior prom]].

This pattern of accountability continues even into Chris's adult years. On at least two occasions, most notably after he was banned permanently, Barbara visited [[the GAMe PLACe]] attempting to protect and defend her little snowflake and argue his case with [[Michael Snyder]], but to no avail.

Barbara constantly babies Chris and tells him how handsome he is.<ref>[[Sonichu Girls]] and [[White knight emails]]</ref> She also told Chris that the reason he often "blanks out" or gets confused is not that he is an absent-minded, slothful buffoon, but that he is a "[[Chris and art|creative genius]] and is simply overwhelmed by having so many creative ideas".<ref>[[Kacey Call 12]]</ref>

However, it seems that even Barb has her limits. Like Bob, she was [[Tomboys And Tomgirls of Virginia#Re: Coming out to my parents|ashamed of Chris's effeminate escapades]], claiming that she did not raise a daughter, and that "tomgirl" is not a thing. [[Tomboys And Tomgirls of Virginia#Re: Mothers|She tried and failed]] to get Chris to stop wearing a bra and panties, even offering to pay him to stop.

===Chris and the Internet===
As first evidenced by the "GAMe PLACe/4Chan picture" incident, Barbara has some concerns over Chris's online misadventures, likely because she fears that he'll [[Jerkhief|get]] [[Bagget|arrested]] and [[28 October 2011|go to prison]]. Given some of the violent states of some of his videos and Chris's [[Arrest|track record]], she is probably not too far from the truth. She also felt Chris could be vulnerable to entrapment, as she tried to discourage Chris from meeting with [[Blanca]] because she thought it was possible Blanca would have ended up being part of a sting operation that could have resulted in Chris's arrest.<ref>[[Mumble 10]]</ref> As it turned out, Blanca was not real and was only a persona cooked up by Internet [[trolls]] seeking to humiliate Chris. She tried to screen another suspicious troll by interrogating [[Ivy]] for about half an hour, but ultimately let her speak to Chris.<ref name="IvyQ&A">[[Ivy Q&A]]</ref> Barbara even seems to suspect that [[Megan Schroeder]], one of the few women Chris has known who ''was not'' out to troll him, is partially responsible for the persecution he has endured over the years.

===Intimate behavior===
{{See also|Affair with Mother}}

From [[LittleBigPlanet]] [[Autism Tutorial Part 2]], Chris advised the parents of autistic children to "give them hugs..., even if they don't want to" and mentioned that Barb never stopped hugging him as a child, even when he didn't want to and then "eventually felt the love". Some children with ASD struggle with physical closeness regardless of the context. This experience may have decreased Chris's sense of personal space & boundaries, thinking that it's normal to hug, kiss, and touch females without their consent, even after they have explicitly told him not to.

{{quote|I, myself, Did have dreams of having sex with my mother.|[[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|One result of Barb's parenting choices, as explained by Chris in August 2016.]]}}

To cap off their relationship, Chris revealed in private conversations with multiple people that Barb has spooned with him.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxGU4nSlX0M ''PVCC NEW info: on Chris and Barbara spoon eachother!'' (YouTube)]</ref>

From [[Arthur Spatchcock]], on Chris sharing a bed with his mother:

{{quoteboxred|Story time, kids. Now most of us are aware of the fire; how Barb and Chris were displaced for some time while the house was getting renovated. You know how Chris was all whiny about his legos, right? Some getting melted, shit like that...well he kind of left out that his own bed was ruined as well given it had years of grease soaked into it because not bathing is so chic in his eyes. So when they got back home Chris didn't have his own bed anymore so he was sharing one with Barb instead. This came with the horrifying addendum that Barb wanted to spoon with him; I don't know if he was little spoon or big spoon but I know she was unimpressed and one night just unloaded on him angrily enough that Chris decided to get his own bed with his own money. So it goes without saying that from the time Chris and Barb got back home [[DStecks|until he got that grand]] he was sleeping in the same bed as his mother.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20190423212237/https://kiwifarms.net/threads/fb-4-11-e-begging-intensifies.19356/page-5</ref>}}

In August 2016, the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]] observed Chris and Barb in public during a court hearing:<ref>[[26 December 2014]]</ref>

{{quoteboxgreen|Barb and Chris are way too physically intimate. It's one thing to describe their creepy relationship, it's quite another to watch it IRL. They hold hands and Chris is always putting his arm around her and rubbing her shoulders sensually. That's shit I'd do to someone I'd want to bang. Not a family member. It's weird.}}

{{quote|I am not a "Bates". OMG.|Chris, in denial<ref>[[Misc texts]]</ref>}}

[[File:Home.png|thumb|right|{{w|Apocalypse Now|"The horror. The horror."}}]]

Barb's habit of cuddling with Chris had been going on since Bob was alive, and he knew of it, but, due to Barb's manipulation, he was not able to stop her.<ref>http://archive.is/zwWV9</ref> In [[August 2016]], Chris [[Honest content|admitted]] to having [[Chris and sex#Dreams of sex with Barb|incestuous fantasies about Barb]], prompting further analysis of their uncomfortably intimate relationship. Chris sometimes refers to her as [[Darling|"dear" or "darling"]], as he usually does for [[DoopieDoOver|would-be sweethearts]]. In his [[Twitch#CLog 04172018 - Buy My Toys|April 2018 Twitch stream]], when Chris got his mother to reluctantly say "[[Random-access humor|turn me loose, you silly goose]]" after hugging him, he commented that she "used to do that more [[Chris and English|flirtingly]]".

In [[June 2021]], not long before his [[Affair With Mother|incestuous relationship]] with his mom allegedly began, Chris, [[Honest Content|completely unprompted]], claimed in a [[Facebook]] post that he and Barb had never slept in the same bed:<ref>[[June 2021 social media posts#CPU stuff and Barb]]</ref>

{{quotebox|Also, during the time my mom and I slept in my bedroom, we slept in Separate Furniture; she slept on the couch, and I slept in the bed. She and I Never ever had slept in the same bed together during those short months between ‘11 and ‘12.

Never in the same bed. ⚡️💙⚡️}}

Throughout 2021, Chris was feeling several instances of sexual frustration, hitting on [[MKRNightVee|several]] [[Annie Ikenberry|women]] [[Isabella Loretta Janke|of]] [[Fiona|interest]]. It has gotten to the point where Chris would release all of this sexual tension on Barbara in mid-June, where he would continuously have sexual intercourse with her every three days. The context in which this has all happened is hazy at best, as information on the affair primarily came from the [[Incest Call]] and [[Incest Texts]] where he describes incestuous acts, and a few leaked chats Chris had with people. Throughout his affair with Barbara, Chris would hint at having such an affair online, calling Barbara a "sweetheart over 50". Sometime after the call and texts were leaked, several concerned observers would contact authorities about the affair, leading to his separation from Barbara, and later, his arrest.

[[File:Jail Art - 05Jun22 - An Honest Self-Portrait from June, 2021.jpg|thumb|200px|A drawing by Chris featuring himself with his mother, drawn in [[June 2022]] and depicting [[June 2021]].<ref name=honestportrait>[[Jail Art (reverse side)#An Honest Self-Portrait from June, 2021]]</ref>]]

According to Chris, Barbara visited<ref name=gl></ref> and wrote<ref name=25letter></ref> to him during [[October 2021]], while he was held in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] on a charge of incest.

However, Chris developed resentment towards Barbara. This appears to come from two factors:

*Chris thinking Barbara should have been "interrogated" for her side of the [[Affair with Mother]].<ref name=jailletter11may></ref>

*Barbara declining to leave [[14 Branchland Court]] (Barbara's house in which he had lived), which Chris believed threw a wrench into his plan to return there. From his jail cell, Chris hatched schemes to try to compel Barbara to move out of the house: he tried to convince his business manager [[Caden Peck]] to call the police on Barbara for theoretical crimes from the past,<ref name=jul4>[[Jail Letter - 4 July 2022]]</ref> to create a [[Kickstarter]] to raise $150,000 to pay off 14 Branchland's mortgage and pay "some" for Barbara to move to a nursing home, and to try to convince Barbara to leave.<ref name=jul21letter></ref> However, there is no evidence that Caden agreed to assist Chris. Chris also attempted to convince [[Kenneth Engelhardt]] and [[Helena Fiorenza]] to help with his fundraiser scheme, and they both balked at the idea.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 22 July 2022 (1)]]</ref>

Much of Chris's resentment of Barbara appears to follow from his stint at [[Western State Hospital]], suggesting that therapists there had discussed his mother with him - in a [[May 2022]] letter, Chris described Barbara using his [[CWC-isms|own spin]] on the phrase "Generational Trauma", a term used in psychological circles and with no known use by Chris beforehand.<ref name=jailletter11may></ref>

In [[June 2022]], Chris drew an art piece as a commission. It depicted [[June 2021]], with Chris falsely claiming he had [[foreknown]] he and Barbara were to become separated. He wrote a delusional and self-serving perspective on what he perceived to be his and Barbara's relationship moving forward:<ref name=honestportrait></ref>

{{quote|But, essentially, regardless of her past emotional manipulations and whatnot, I still cared and had patience when it came to tending to her care. Yet I could not escape emotions that she and I had already were drifting apart. And that had become more clear over the past year with her worsening handicaps and lethargy. I've realized, despite my efforts with her, she had become an emotional burden even moreso than before and was holding me back. But ultimately, to return to better progress, work and life, I have had to make the hard emotional choice to let her go. I've wept while writing this.}}

===After Chris's jail stint===
[[File:February 2024 Chris and Barb sighting.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris and Barbara, February 2024, at a notary service.]]
A major change that came from the summer 2021 incest is that Barbara and Chris no longer live together as of late [[July 2021]]. On the 30th, Chris was served an [[Emergency Protective Order]] [[ban]]ning him from 14 Branchland Court.<ref name=nullsummary></ref> After his nearly two-year stay in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] on a charge of incest, Chris went to live at [[Gateway Homes]] for a brief time, then business manager [[Caden Peck]] financed a home in [[Big Island, VA]] in which Chris currently lives.

Chris has been observed returning to 14 Branchland Court. On 4 [[September 2023]], a [[r/ChrisChanSonichu]] user photographed his [[Son-chu|car]] in the driveway.<ref>[[Fan visits#nemo1316]]</ref> On 7 [[November 2023]], another r/ChrisChanSonichu user claimed to have seen both Barbara and Chris at the house. The user alleged that Chris mentioned having taken Barbara shopping and that he was taking some belongings to his house.<ref>[[Post-jail sightings (2023)#14 Branchland Court]]</ref> In [[April 2024]], ''[[The Chris Chan Conspiracy]]'' creator GamerFromMars claimed that Chris had told him that he visits Barbara about once a month.<ref>[[The Chris Chan Conspiracy#Interview comments]]</ref>

Chris began deleting years-old videos from his [[YouTube]] channel which had featured Barbara begging for money or promoting [[business]] sales. The deletions began after mid-[[November 2023]] and continued through [[January 2025]]. Chris has not publicly given a reason for doing so.

In [[February 2024]], Chris and Barbara went to a store's notary service to attempt to get a legal affidavit notarized.<ref>[[Sightings (2024)#Notary with Barb]]</ref>

[[File:X - Kamala Harris 2024 sign1.jpeg|thumb|left|150px|Barbara seen at center window]]
Chris has also occasionally alluded to returning to the house on social media. On 22 [[April 2024]], he uploaded [[Harvesting Process, Gravel at the Sonichu Temple]], which shows him gathering gravel in the driveway. In [[September 2024]], he posted photos of his custom-drawn [[yard]] sign supporting [[Kamala Harris]]'s run for the presidency; in one photo, Barbara can be glimpsed in the window. In [[November 2024]], Chris informed fans that his PO Box had been closed in error, and that they could send mail to 14 Branchland Court instead. Chris noted that either the mail would be forwarded to him, or he would personally retrieve it.<ref>[[November 2024 social media posts#Lynchburg P.O. box closed]]</ref>

On 24 [[February 2025]], Barbara remarked about [[Chris's birthday]] to a fan who had stopped to view 14 Branchland Court. According to the fan, Barbara stepped out to ask why he was there, requested not to be filmed, then asked him when his birthday was before commenting, “I have a son, It’s his birthday today”. The fan snapped two photos of her approaching him.<ref name=feb2025photok>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#Barb]]</ref><ref name=feb2025photor>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/1iydxgo/clarifying_myself/ ([https://archive.fo/Nl2hd archive])</ref>

In [[May 2025]], Chris claimed to a ween that he had not seen Barbara for a few months, but that she calls him to ask what her bank balance is since she doesn't have easy access to it.<ref name=walt>[[Walt's call with cwc! 2/17/25]]</ref>

==Pets==
{{quote|They both need some serious training, and my mom recently met, and flirted with, a verified "Smith" who is a pro dog trainer. He offered to train the beagles for a discount from his original rate.|Chris in [[2012]]<ref>[[LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2011-2012#Dogs]]</ref>}}
As of [[March 2024]], Barbara's pets are the beagle [[Clover and Snoopy|Clover]] and some of the [[Chandler Cats]]. Barbara has a history of neglect towards the pets.

Clover, as well as her deceased brother Snoopy, were acquired as puppies by Barbara and Chris. It had been Barbara's idea to get a beagle for a pet, and Chris eventually agreed to it.<ref>[[May 2012 Facebook posts#These poor fucking dogs]]</ref> Snoopy was officially Barbara's, while Clover was ostensibly Chris's. However, Chris has criticized Barbara's decisions on the dogs, implying that she was in control.<ref name=barbblame>[[Anaxis DMs#Introduction/Bismuth Messages]]</ref>

Despite being a hoarder, Barbara neglected to clear sufficient space for the dogs. At one point, Snoopy fell off a "mountain of clothes" as a puppy, leaving his leg permanently damaged.<ref>[[July 2021 social media posts#Eulogy for Snoopy]]</ref> Both dogs were usually kept inside the house, to the point they became obese and relieve themselves on newspapers. Chris has commented it would be ideal if the dogs could use [[Patti]]'s old pen in the side [[yard]] instead.<ref name=barbblame></ref>

In regards to the cats, [[Scamper]] was killed as a result of the [[2014 house fire]], of which Barbara's hoarding was a major factor. Barbara also accidentally locked [[Sorbet]] inside a room overnight, and Chris found him early morning when feeding the other cats.<ref>[[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sorbet lost, then found]]</ref>

==Quirks==
===Meals===
The night after the Chandler family moved back to Ruckersville in [[2000]], Bob and Chris refused a spaghetti dinner offered by Barb. As a response, Barb decided to forgo cooking for her family and did not make a meal for Chris for at least eleven years afterwards. Chris mentioned in [[2011]] that she was still upset over it:<ref name=jackie24>See emails sent by [[Jackie E-mails 24|Chris to Jackie on 24 and 26 April 2011]].</ref>

{{quote|The spaghetti topic is soo yesterdecade, but apparently she remembers it as well as having a very close relative pass away. Obviously I can empathize with that; I still have my chip on the shoulder from [[Michael Snyder]] banning me from the [[The GAMe PLACe|Game & Hobby Place]]|Chris in a 2011 email<ref name=jackie24></ref>}}

Barb may have resumed making meals at some point. In a [[September 2019]] chat, Chris said he was concerned over his hypertension and "told Barbara to kill the spicy foods for a while."<ref>[[The Place chats - Ben Saint]]</ref>

In a [[May 2016]] begging video, Chris claimed to need money for food, and gave as an example bananas, which he said Barb liked to eat.<ref>[[Donations, Please, plus Live Game Stream tonight.]]</ref>

In the mid-2010s, Barb's doctor advised that she drink meal replacement shakes.<ref>[[September 2018 social media posts#Dynamics between Chris and Barb]]</ref> In [[Minor Update, Handouts!]], a set of begging videos from [[May 2017]], Chris asked his audience for money, claiming it was needed to pay for more of Barb's meal shakes, and admitted he had [[neglect]]ed to buy enough for the month. Barb also made an appearance in which she mentioned consuming the meal shakes. Barb again mentioned the meal shakes during a livestream in [[April 2018]], saying that she liked them and referred to them as "chocolate milkshakes."<ref>[[CLog 04172018 - Buy My Toys]]</ref>

In the [[August 2018]] video [[Shoe Colouring]], Barb mentioned that she did some cooking for her dinner and lunch, which consisted of chicken, fish, and half a can of yams.

==Health problems==
===Weight===
[[Image:Cheers01.jpg|thumb|Artist's depiction.]]

Like Chris, Barbara was [[obesity|obese]] at the time of his discovery by the internet. As late as the 1990s, Barbara was reasonably slim, but she, along with Chris, ballooned out as the 2000s rolled along, to the point of resembling English serial killer {{w|Rose West}}. Her massive size earned her the affectionate nickname '''Snorlax''' from the [[trolls]]. Barb's size may have led to her [[Chris and stress|sleeping a lot]]<ref>[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7]]</ref> and usually skipping [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|church]].<ref>[[Church audio]]</ref>

However, according to eyewitness reports, Barbara lost weight in 2012.<ref>[[This is how the Trial went‎]]</ref> Her weight loss is visible in photos Chris took of her at a 2012 Mythbusters tour stop in Washington, DC.<ref>[[:File:BarbMarch2012.png]]</ref>

This has continued into her old age. When she attended Chris's [[26 December 2014|court hearings]] throughout [[2015]], Christorians in attendance invariably noted that although she has lost weight, she appears to have low muscle mass; probably due to her sedentary lifestyle. In particular, at [[26 December 2014#15 October Hearing|his last hearing]], it was noted that Barb appeared to be growing increasingly frail, and appeared much more passive to Chris than she has otherwise been known to be, as she did not present as very responsive. Chris also reportedly got short with her due to her poor hearing.

In 2018, Chris decided to cash in on the Snorlax joke, claiming that his mother found it funny. He listed a plush Snorlax for sale on [[eBay]], at $200.

{{quote|Hey, Everyone! Those in the meme-know: the times when my mother used to be large and lazy, everyone called her a Snorlax. Well, Barbara likes the joke too, and can laugh it off as she is doing a lot better these days. So, one time only, she signed a Snorlax Plush, and YOU can own it; a 20% More Awesome Collectible. A personal Certificate or Letter of Authenticity will be included. Thank you.}}

==="Holey buttocks"===
In a [[Twitter|tweet]] to Cole from June 29, 2013, Chris tells him that "[he] ought to be over here putting bandages on [their] Mom's holey buttocks". It was not clear exactly what sort of problem this referred to, though it hardly sounds pleasant. On October 14, 2013, Chris elaborated in a Facebook post, stating, "my mother stresses me with her continuous rants about her damn miniature scabie flies, her suffering, the [[Financhu_Crisis|low finances]] and shit!!!". The consensus was that the so-called "holey buttocks" were, in fact, lesions. It is now believed that Barb has (or had) a colony of parasitic mites, rather than flies, that have burrowed into her prodigious posterior. Naturally, while Barb is being eaten alive by parasites other than Chris, her child whines about having to take care of her.

===Dental===
In August 2014, Chris begged for money on [[Facebook]], supposedly to pay [[List of toys|dental fees]], as he claimed his mother had cavities in her teeth that needed treatment. In July 2016, Barb herself begged for money.<ref>[[Donations Further Requested, Please]]</ref> Chris and Barb restarted begging for [[Lego|dental]] money in early 2018.

===Hearing loss===
During Chris's [[October 2015]] court hearing for [[pepper spray]]ing a [[GameStop]] employee, [[Marvin]] was in attendance and observed Chris imply that Barbara had hearing loss.<ref>[[26 December 2014#15 October Hearing]]</ref>

{{quote|After a bit, the PD went up to the judge and they called Chris up. Chris starts getting impatient with Barb. He said something like "are your ears clogged up??" and then "wanna follow me so you can hear what's going on?" Then she got up and trundled up there to accompany Chris.|Marvin}}

In [[December 2020]], Barbara slept while [[Clover and Snoopy]] were barking in her room with Chris able to hear the noise from downstairs. He went to see Barbara, and she heard his voice. Chris was spooked by this, and wondered about it in a chat with [[The Place]]. A member asked Chris if she had hearing loss, and Chris answered that since she could hear him, he reasoned her hearing must be good.<ref name=scary>[[The Place chats (December 2020)#Scary Barbara and Cirrusfire Rant]]</ref>

On 20 [[September 2021]], Reddit user e1ectricthunder visited [[14 Branchland Court]] and had a brief conversation with Barbara, during which Barb had difficulty understanding what was being said.<ref>[[Fan visits#e1ectricthunder]]</ref>

===Aging===
{{quote|They treat, they treat you very badly in there. She, she would, she, she, she would never want me to put her into a home, and I would not do that.|Chris, [[August 2014]]<ref>[[Catie Date Conversation Transcript]]</ref>}}

[[File:Barb reacts to Quinn.jpg|thumb|200px|Barb, aged 76, tissue in hand, comforting Chris after [[Jessica Quinn]] broke up with him.]]

In [[November 2015]], [[Family Needs to appreciate Family]] was uploaded to YouTube. The video is a plea for [[Cole Smithey]], [[David Alan Chandler]], and [[Carol Suzanne Chandler]] to visit Barbara before "her time runs out", even though the latter two are not her progeny.

On 13 [[July 2016]], Barbara unexpectedly starred in [[Donations Further Requested, Please|one of Chris's e-begging videos]]. In the minute-long video, she speaks slowly and almost inaudibly, hardly moving or blinking for the entirety of the video. While some have voiced concerns that this may be an early sign of dementia, it is just as likely that she, being a manipulative narcissist, was putting on an act for money. She has since reappeared in numerous other e-begging videos from Chris, including multiple in [[August 2018]]; her appearance is frail and quite frazzled, and her sentences are often punctuated with tons of "ums" and "uhs", along with extended pauses.

[[File:Barbovertime.gif|left]]

In [[August 2016]], [[Anna McLerran]] posted a photo on Facebook of herself and Barb together.<ref>[[:File:Barb and anna.jpg|With Anna, presumably in August 2016.]]</ref> In it, Barbara appears to have aged significantly since her last appearance in the "Donations Further Requested, Please" video.

In [[November 2016]], Barbara escaped injury when she slipped and fell.<ref>[[November 2016 Facebook posts#Barb slips and falls]]</ref>

Chris was increasingly tasked with helping Barbara around the house in her elderly age. He stated in [[April 2017]] that he was taking caregiving classes.<ref>[[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04272017]]</ref>

In a [[December 2020]] chat with [[The Place]], Chris said that Barbara used to have better negotiation skills and implied those skills would improve after she gets her Rosechu form... a cope Chris has for her eventual death.<ref name=placedec4></ref>

Later that month, Chris told The Place, "Barbara scares me," following up with him wondering how she could remain asleep despite the noise from [[Clover and Snoopy]]'s barking, and saying that the way her face looked as she slept scared him.<ref name=scary></ref>

During the [[Jail Saga]], Chris wrote about Barbara in letters, making implications about her advanced age and pondering over her possible [[death]], although Chris mixed in plenty of his maladaptive [[coping]] mechanisms and narcissism, such as by claiming that his [[soul bonding]] helped save Barbara and continuing to maintain belief that she would become reincarnated as a [[Rosechu]] upon her death.<ref name=jul4></ref>

{{clear}}

===Other===
In [[October 2009]], Barbara spent her birthday at the hospital with what the Chandlers thought was food poisoning.<ref name="9 October 2009">[[9 October 2009]]</ref> Barbara was diagnosed with {{w|colitis}}, a gastrointestinal disease characterized by the inflammation of the colon. It manifests in diarrhea and cramps. Which kind of colitis has yet to be determined. It seems the Chandler family's diet has finally come to affect her, and to survive, she will have to change her eating habits; considering their stubbornness, this clearly will end badly.

Hearing the plight of the Chandler family, [[Trolls|fans]] of Sonichu created the website "Barbara Chandler Has AIDS" to spread awareness regarding AIDS and to collect donations for research foundations and charities.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201009073942/https://sites.google.com/site/barbarachandlerhasaids/home "Barbara Chandler Has AIDS" Awareness Website]</ref> Chris himself denied the rumor.<ref name="9 October 2009"/>

On 23 August 2013, Chris claimed that Barbara had been afflicted with breast cancer but managed to survive.<ref>[[Facebook#Breast Cancer Awareness]]</ref> He did not give details about when she was diagnosed with the ailment, at what stage it was, or what kind of treatment Barb received.

In [[November 2020]], Chris mentioned that Barbara had an appointment with a cardiologist.<ref>[[The Place chats (November 2020)#Chris's Body Shakes]]</ref>

==Mental problems==
Barb is understood by most to be a highly unstable woman, and worryingly, many of her behaviors can also be observed in Chris. Many believe her to be selfish and extremely narcissistic, on account of her baseless belief that she is [[Daniel Weston|descended from]] [[Anne Boleyn|Tudor high nobility]], and the pathological manner in which she lies and assigns blame to others, even in instances where the fault clearly lies with her. All of these traits are shared by Chris, with Barb's apparent encouragement. Additionally, many aspects of her relationship with Chris are consistent with [https://web.archive.org/web/20201112020245/https://www.daughtersofnarcissisticmothers.com/mothers-with-narcissistic-personality-disorder/ narcissistic motherhood], which is a fascinating but complex topic, too lengthy to be discussed in detail here. Although Chris seems to be her [https://web.archive.org/web/20201112024302/https://www.daughtersofnarcissisticmothers.com/golden-child-and-scapegoat/ "golden child"], she does not shy from mistreating him if he displeases her. This can be seen in an email to [[Jackie]] from May 2011; Chris claimed that his mother flew into a rage over his [[tomgirl]] inclinations, forcing him to submit to a haircut and [[Death threats|threatening to kill him]].<ref name="jackie26"></ref>
===Hoarding===
Aside from her narcissism, Barb is also infamous to Christorians for her hoarding. During Chris's youth, she would create piles of clothes as tall as her son.<ref name=younger></ref> Chris has labeled her a "pack rat",<ref>[[Father Call]]</ref> and on more than one occasion has indicated his displeasure at her hoarding and the consequent state of [[14 Branchland Court|their house]], although neither he nor Bob are known to have ever seriously challenged it. Barb compulsively hoards her purchases, particularly from Goodwill, which, by [[2009]], had rendered the living room uninhabitable.<ref>[[Tour of Chris's House]]</ref> When Bob was admitted to the hospital for the final time, he was quarantined for bug bites, ostensibly due to the conditions in the Chandler household.<ref>[[Rocky Shoemaker call]]</ref> The situation did not improve after Bob's passing, either. A [[Tour of Chris's House II|second house tour video]] made by Chris in [[2013]] revealed that Barb's hoarding had gotten severe enough to render entire rooms completely inaccessible, with some rooms literally full of stuff to within inches of the ceiling, and others reduced to crevices carved into walls of junk.

Barb's hoarding was predicted by many to lead to disaster, and finally did on [[2014 house fire|10 January 2014]], when Chris accidentally started a house fire in the morning while trying to brew coffee in the bathroom, because the kitchen had been among the rooms blocked off by Barb's junk. Naturally, Barb's hoard provided ample kindling for the fire, and the house was severely damaged before the fire could be contained. In fact, given the state of the house in the second tour video, it's surprising that Chris and Barb were able to escape. Unsurprising, however, is the fact that one of the Chandlers' remaining cats died in the blaze, and one of the firefighters sent to the scene also suffered unspecified injuries.

While the Chandlers [[Rental House|relocated]], pending repairs to their home, Barb's stuff went into storage. When repairs were completed a year later, Barb had all of it moved back to 14 Branchland Court, and is not known to have disposed of any of it, even though, by all accounts, most of what she and Chris were able to salvage was subjected to either fire, smoke or water damage, rendering it completely useless. This was confirmed in April 2017, when Chris mentioned the laundry room contained a "mountain pile" of 20-40 bags of dirty, damaged clothing that had not been washed since the fire occurred.<ref>[[April 2017 Facebook posts#Offering The Classic shirt for $12,000 minimum]]</ref>
===Memory?===
Barb has also long been speculated to suffer from a form of dementia due to later video appearances (mostly begging videos) showing her as struggling with forming sentences without a degree of prompting by Chris. Some initially speculated that Chris and Barb were taking advantage of her feeble, elderly state for the purpose of emotionally manipulating their audience into giving them more donations out of pity, as there were other videos where Barb appeared to be more cognizant and seemed to be able to handle her own finances to some degree. Some people close to Chris, such as [[The Captain]], have proclaimed her to not have dementia.

{{quote|She's fully there mentally.. She can drive, hold a conversation, etc. But yeah I can't explain that [[Creepy stare|damn stare]] lol|The Captain<ref>[[Kiwi_Farms_posts_(The_Captain)#Dementia Theory]]</ref>}}

However, this statement was made in [[2018]], and it's possible in the years following that she has developed a form of cognitive disability. In light of the [[Chris and sex#Incest|incest]] situation, in which Chris noted that she seemed "partially confused" on at least one of the occasions that he jumped her bones, how much of her situation was an act (presuming if any of it was) and how much is real has been called into question.

In the [[July 2021]] [[Incest Texts]], Chris claimed that Barb has memory problems (and that his incestuous acts were helping to heal her).

{{quote|She has had memory problems at time beforehand, yes, but she is being better stimulated in her mind and soul, and it Really Shows! Her mental processing speed is even going back up.|Chris}}

Barb was evaluated at a hospital after being separated from her son and was able to return to her home after he was incarcerated, though it should still be noted that the bar for being deemed qualified enough to take care of oneself is low. In [[June 2022]], a letter from Chris claimed that Barb had been suffering from a "falling mentality" the year before, although it's not clear what that entails.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 27 June 2022]]</ref>

==Legal problems==
On [[28 October 2011]], Chris and Barb were caught in an incident with [[The GAMe PLACe]] and were actually arrested with several serious charges, with Barb's including felony assault and failure to stop. The two were later released on bail. After a succession of court hearings, Barb, along with her son, was arraigned on her felony charges on 10 July 2012. She was sentenced to community service and was put on a two-year probation, as well as being ordered to pay Michael Snyder's medical bills. When informed of the latter fact during the trial, Chris explained that his mother, a retired, obese, seventy-year-old woman, would take care of the charges for him. No one was particularly surprised at this revelation.

==Financial problems==
[[File:Our signatures00001.png|thumb|200px|Barb and Chris in March 2018, the former wearing the [[$400 gold necklace]].]]

Barb lives off social security ({{w|Retirement Insurance Benefits}}) and a small pension from her old job; about $14,000 a year.<ref name=charbincome>[[CWCki Forums posts (Cousin Al)#Chris and Barbara's Income]]</ref>

In 2016, Barb was sued by a Discover bank in Norfolk for not paying [[debt]]s. This came to light on [[March 2016|March 14]], [[2016]], when sharp-eyed [[Kiwi Farms|Kiwis]] noticed that she had a hearing on March 16. Since grave neglect of her debt was likely the cause of her being taken to court, it was widely assumed that she would ignore the summons too. Instead, once the court records were updated, many were surprised to see that not only had Barb attended, but she had represented herself, too. Equally unsurprisingly, this bold move failed to pay off, and Barb was still sentenced to pay $4,706.93.<ref>[[:File:Barb discover bank result.png]]</ref>

Five months later, Barb was sued again, this time by Capital One, for the same reason. The hearing in September resulted in a Default Judgment against Barb, meaning that she did not bother attending. She owes Capital One $15,906.99.<ref>[[:File:Barb vs Capital One Bank result.png]]</ref>

Her out-of-control debt was the catalyst for the [[Financhu Crisis]] of 2016.
[[File:Barb's blankets ebay listings photos 01.jpg|Barb advertising blankets for sale in summer 2018.|thumb|left|200px]]
From June through July of that year, Barb appeared in three videos:

*[[Donations Required, Serious. Please help]]
*[[Donations Requested, Please]]
*[[Donations Further Requested, Please]]

In the videos, she and Chris beg for donations, claiming to need money for her asthma medication and dental work (although they receive a combined amount of $2,500 per month from the government<ref name=charbincome></ref> and their costly hoards are clearly visible behind them). See the Appearances section for more appearances by Barb.

She has failed to take accountability for ruining the family's finances, trying to pin the blame on Chris,<ref>[[Patreon announcement]]</ref> even though her known debt of over $20,000 is much larger than Chris's.

She and Chris had an inheritance from Bob worth "tens of thousands of dollars" when he passed away, but Barb decided to frivolously spend it on [[Rob Bell]] in an attempt to gain exoneration for her [[assault and battery]] charge.

In the summer of 2018, she joined forces with Chris in selling stuff on [[eBay]], including items from her hoard and her autographs, which some fans bought.

In [[December 2020]], Chris had a "rough financial moment with Barb" when he had to give her less money than usual, because his own bank balance had been in the red.<ref>[[The Place chats (December 2020)#Rough Financial Moment]]</ref> He and Barbara were still in "disharmony" the following day.<ref name=placedec4></ref>

At an unknown point, Chris had control over Barbara's bank account. Chris confirmed this to [[Null]] in [[July 2021]],<ref>[[Null DMs#Chris takes money from Barb]]</ref> having taken $750 from Barbara's account to fund a room at [[Regency Inn Richmond]] due to being [[ban]]ned by [[Emergency Protective Order]] from Barbara's house. In [[May 2025]], Chris claimed to a ween that Barbara calls him occasionally to check on her bank balance since she doesn't have easy access to it.<ref name=walt></ref>

==Appearances==

===In ''Sonichu''===
[[File:Bc.PNG|thumb|200px|Chris gets to live out his fantasy of being (and having) an adequate son.]]

In [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]], Barbara makes a brief appearance in "Classic Sonichu Strips".

In [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]], the male [[Dating education#In Sonichu|Dating Education]] students are given Barbara dolls to talk to.

In the 2015 revisions to [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]], Chris wrote out Blanca's character and replaced her with his mother.

According to the [[CWCipedia]], [[Sandy Rosechu]] and [[Sonichu and Rosechu's children]] go to Anneweston Elementary School.<ref>[[CWCipedia]] on [https://web.archive.org/web/20130831123750/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Wild_Sonichu Wild Sonichu]</ref> It is unknown whether or not Sonichu and Rosechu's children still go to that school after their [[Sonichu and Rosechu's children#Sonichu and Rosechu's children|evolution]].

[[File:Chandlers & Sonichus.jpg|200px|thumb|left]]

In [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]], Barb is photoshopped into a "family photo" alongside Chris, Bob and the various Chus.

[[File:Borb, Sonichu12.jpg|200px|thumb|In ''Sonichu'' #12.]]

In [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]], Barb is in a set of pages that is a cross between Chris writing an autobiographical account of himself coming out as a tomgirl to his parents and a tribute to his late father.

Due to Chris's Oedipal complex, Barb is depicted as much more youthful than Bob, even though she was nearly 70 at the time. She is also drawn as being freakishly tall compared to Chris and Bob, despite being shorter than both in real life, though this may just be Chris's inability to keep his characters properly proportioned at work. Barb expresses surprise at her son's announcement of being trans. Chris states that she was "hesitant for a long while", but "got used to my subtle and more changes".

This is a drastic understatement, as the real-life Barb tried to stop his [[tomgirl]] lifestyle in ways including suicide threats, guilt trips (by claiming that she was worried Chris would kill her), paying him to stop cross-dressing, and even ordering him to submit to a haircut. If her attitude towards him cooled, it was only out of resignation rather than acceptance. Evidence of this is when she became angry with him again after finding out that he had successfully changed his name in 2016.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (MasterDisaster)#Name Change Drama]]</ref>

[[File:Chandler family as ponies.png|200px|thumb|left|Barb, pictured at left, as ''Sugar Darling'', in a [[My Little Pony|MLP]]-inspired drawing from [[August 2017]].]]

In August 2017, Chris unveiled a drawing of the Chandler family depicted as [[My Little Pony]] characters, saying they will make further appearances in [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]].

===Videos===
{{Incomplete}}
Barbara has appeared in several videos: off-camera in the [[Christian Weston Chandler Interview]], and on-camera (for the first time) in [[You're Always Pretty]]. [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004|Two decade-old videos]] were leaked in December 2014 showing the Chandlers celebrating Christmas. Another video of her was recorded by a [[troll]] as she and Chris left court after his hearing in February 2015.

She has most frequently appeared during the [[Financhu Crisis]].

[[Donations Required, Serious. Please help|Two more]] [[Donations Requested, Please|videos]] were released in June 2016, showing Chris begging for donations to buy asthma pills for Barbara. Barbara is shown practically dead in both of these videos so [[Chris and Death|god only knows what will happen in the near future.]]

In a [[Donations Further Requested, Please|video]] released on 13 July 2016, Barbara joins her son in shamelessly e-begging. Her voice tired and hoarse, mouth agape, she stares directly into the camera like a deer caught in the headlights.

She resumed begging in a [[EMERGENCY HOME UPDATE|video]] from April 2017, in which she wears a [[$400 gold necklace]] while asking Chris's audience to give him $1,000 in exchange for his old [[Stamps|stamp album]].

She next appeared in [[Live Game Stream - C-Log 04142017]], when she walked in while Chris was recording.

After more uploads from Chris, Barb starred in another begging video uploaded on 24 May 2017, titled [[We Said Donations No Less than $1 00, US, Please]]. Chris removed the video the next day after people threatened to report him for elder abuse.

After the last failed attempt of getting donations, Barb and Chris engaged in yet another begging video on 16 June 2017, titled [[We need immediate funds, please]]. Ironically, she wore both the [[$400 gold necklace]] and a pearl necklace.

Almost a month had passed, without any appearances from Barb. With Chris getting decent amounts of funds from his [[Patreon]] account, there no longer seemed to be a desire to beg. On 14 July 2017, she makes a small voice-only cameo in a [[Soda Awawawawa Puccho Candy Response]], screaming at him for not closing the front door. She also comments in [[Solar Eclipse Vlogs]], asking Chris if he's ready to go back inside after the eclipse ends.

Barb's first appearance on video in 2018 was in [[Selling Vintage Comic Books (Cole Smithey’s Comic Books)]]. She appeared a couple of weeks later in [[Our signatures]] to demonstrate that her signature, a key selling point in the comic sales, was real. On 9 April, Barb appeared for the seventh time during the Financhu Crisis to beg in [[Buy Our Things off of my eBay to help us, Please.]]

On 16 April, a [[April 2018 Paid Video Requests|bizarre video of a few seconds of Barb standing in a doorway]] was posted to the [[CWCki Club]]. On the 17th, she appeared as a guest on Chris's [[Twitch]] stream.

On 8 May, Barb appeared in [[WE NEED MONEY FOR MORTGAGE NOW, PLEASE!]]. Two days later, Barb appeared in [[May 2018 Paid Video Requests|paid videos giving shout-outs to school shooters Nicholas Cruz and Adam Lanza]].

She watched Chris spray-paint his shoes (and his bedroom carpet) in [[Shoe Colouring]], sitting in the same room with poor ventilation.

In the summer of 2018, she appeared in multiple videos to promote her partnership with Chris's eBay business: [[My Mother WORKED Hard, Spent Hard; Needs Money NOW.]], [[Barbara Chandler will be making out autographed photos and posters.]] and [[Barbara’s Blankets]]. She then begged for her car payment money in [[Mother needs a car payment]].

[[Barb confirms she isn't dead]] was her next appearance, a rare non-begging video.

Chris (possessed by [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]]) got Barb to appear on camera in [[Watching TF2 Analysis Anarchy Red Vs Blue Part 3]] (12 June 2020).

Barb gave a video shout-out to [[Cole]] in the [[September 2020]] video [[To Cole Smithey, from Barb, and Sonichu (Prime)]].

'''Robert "Bob" Franklin Chandler Jr.'''<ref>[[Blanca E-mails#Chris likes Blanca|Email to Blanca]]</ref> (4 September [[Pre-1980#1920s|1927]] – 6 September [[2011]]<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180110224343/http://www.harveypowers.com/wynn/wynn/d155.html</ref>) was the father of [[Christian Weston Chandler]], [[Carol Chandler]] and [[David Alan Chandler]], the stepfather of [[Cole Smithey]], and husband of [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Weston Chandler]]. Bob became a firm favorite with [[trolls]] due to Chris's antipathy towards him and for his infamous cameo when he [[Bob Walks In|walked in]] on Chris [[mass debating]].<ref>[[Bob Walks In]]</ref> His nickname, "The [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]] Lumberjack," came from this incident, wherein he promised to cut the internet down.

Despite being estranged from his other children and despised by his stepson for alleged abusive behavior, Bob was widely viewed as a better parent than his wife [[Barbara]] by Christorians, and – as far as Chris's own testimony can be trusted – he treated Chris better than any of his previous children. Bob had serious difficulties working with Chris's [[autism]], a disorder that both he and his wife did not fully understand, but nonetheless, he had high hopes for his child despite the difficulties that he faced. Bob hoped to instill Chris with a variety of interests that reflected his own varied tastes, and he created The Dreaming Studio in their backyard, hoping they'd create things there (though sadly, nothing of note was ever created there).

Because of this, Bob's popularity stems from his concern for Chris's foolish behavior and from his occasional attempts to encourage a modicum of responsibility in Chris's life, noting that he devoted 29 years to raising his son. Of course, Chris was almost entirely unaffected by Bob's efforts to better him, but unlike Barb, he at least made the effort, even if his attempts were futile or harmful at worst. That being said, he also encouraged Chris to ''not'' seek employment in favor of getting [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]], even though Chris could still hold a part-time job and receive those benefits, so he's not entirely blameless for the state that his son is in today, either. Not to mention that many of [[Homos|Chris's more backward]] [[Chris and race|social perspectives]] that he had in the "Classic Era" stem from his influence.

Bob was always eager to chat, and indeed, much of the known information about Bob's life comes from conversations he had with trolls. It seems that Chris's passion for [[Honest Content]] did not fall too far from that tree, although Bob at least had a filter that his son lacks. Whether in person or over the phone, Bob appeared to relish the opportunity to speak with just about anyone. According to Chris, he was also a strong negotiator.<ref>[[The Place chats - ProjectSNT and Opuscon789#Browsing Kiwi Farms]]</ref>

On 6 September 2011, Bob died of complications from heart failure at Martha Jefferson Hospital ICU, surrounded by his family, his pastor and hospital staff.<ref name="BobObitarchive">http://web.archive.org/web/20130211071324/http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/dailyprogress/obituary.aspx?n=robert-franklin-chandler&pid=153539600 (archive from 11 Feb 2013)</ref> He was survived by his wife and son, who then had to become the man of the house. Chris occasionally raked in some income through commission work, though he has never looked for a serious career. Chris initially came to terms with his father's death in a conventional, healthy way, but eventually turned to a [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism where he genuinely believed that his father was alive in [[Dimensions|another dimension]] as a [[Sonichu (species)|Sonichu]] named Robertchu.

Years later, in 2021, Chris would disgrace Bob's memory by repeatedly having dubiously-consensual sex with his wife in an [[Affair with Mother|incest]]-based affair, with Chris bragging that he could get Barb off better than "Mr. C" ever could. Following this incident, both were separated from the house that he maintained, with Chris jailed, Barb temporarily hospitalized before eventually returning to the residence, and the Dreaming Studio left abandoned for good.

==Biography==

[[File:Bob_Chandler_1945.png|thumb|right|200px|Bob Chandler (left) as a Boy Scout in 1945.]]

Bob has said that he was, "...interested in the world," around him since he was ten, and began collecting foreign [[stamps]] as a child in the [[1930s]]; his first stamp was of {{w|Michael I of Romania}}. He also developed an interest in foreign music, eventually collecting some 15,000–20,000 LPs from various genres and cultures.<ref name="PSN 37"/> About 100 or so survived the 2014 [[house fire]].<ref>[[Discord Q&A 4#Bob's record collection]]</ref>

Bob joined the [[wikipedia:Boy Scouts of America|Boy Scouts]], becoming an Eagle Scout and a Scoutmaster for over 20 years.<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris]]</ref>

According to Chris, Bob lost his [[virgin with rage|virginity]] at the age of 27, which would have been in 1954 or 1955.<ref>[[January 2012 Facebook Posts#February is coming up]]</ref>

===Service and education===

A 1942 yearbook from Sylacauga High School lists a "Bobby Chandler" in the freshman class and glee club, suggesting that he graduated from this school in spring 1945 before matriculating at {{w|Auburn University}} as an aeronautical engineering major that autumn.

[[File:Chris Korean War Graphic.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Bob served in Korea, and, thankfully for Chris, who believes that he was a sperm carried in one of his father's testicles during that time, he left before the Korean War broke out.]]

Bob apparently had knowledge that the Army desired,<ref>(Majoring in Aeronautical Engineering, Auburn University, Freshman p. 95 of the 1946 yearbook [https://web.archive.org/web/20170725175556/http://content.lib.auburn.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/gloms/id/4124/rec/14])</ref> was conscripted as a special draftee in 1946 and placed in the {{w|Signal Corps (United States Army)|Signal Corps}}. There, he learned how to install valve systems, switchboards, and telephones. After basic training and Signal School in {{w|Fort Monmouth}}, New Jersey, Bob was sent to Korea for a year to install infrastructure with the American occupation force. Bob recounted a reckless decision he made during his time in the Army after returning from Korea for the Christmas holiday in 1947. He hitchhiked to New York City, where he stayed for two weeks before running out of money, and then had to figure out how to get back to Fort Monmouth.. Serving until 1948, he was entitled to the WWII Victory Medal: his service number was 44107856.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201210120633/https://aad.archives.gov/aad/record-detail.jsp?dt=893&mtch=11&tf=F&q=Chandler&bc=&sort=24996%2520desc&rpp=10&pg=4&rid=8565331&rlst=5136538%2C4652469%2C8564216%2C1000879%2C987835%2C4549799%2C991002%2C8565331%2C5188385%2C8565346]</ref>

Figuring he'd get "swallowed up" at a big college, Bob picked a small college, {{w|Jacksonville State Teachers College}} (now Jacksonville State University), after leaving the military. He studied pre-engineering and played French horn for the band and orchestra there for two years before returning to Auburn University, where he studied electrical engineering and graduated in 1952 with a {{w|Bachelor of Electrical Engineering}} degree.<ref>(page 269 of the 1952 yearbook)[https://web.archive.org/web/20170725175342/http://content.lib.auburn.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/gloms/id/16173/rec/20] {{w|G.I. Bill}}.</ref><ref name="About" /> As an engineer, he never learned to spell properly.<ref name = "Meet">[[Date with Emily#Meet the Parent (0:05:20–0:07:17)]]</ref> While he was at Auburn, he was part of the band once again, was a member of {{w|Wesley Foundation}}, a [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|United Methodist]] religious group; and Phi Mu Alpha, a social frat dedicated to men who are interested in music.

===Career===
[[File:Bob 25th Anniversary at General Electric.jpg|thumb|200px|Article on Bob's 25th anniversary at General Electric.]]

A 1946 military record included Bob's occupation while he was a student as "tinsmith, coppersmith, and sheet metal worker".

Bob worked for {{w|Western Electric}} as an engineer for four years, where he designed a variety of electrical subsystems, including relays, telephones and valve systems. Initially, he was working with the radar systems in test-planning automatic test equipment. With Western Electric, Bob and his co-worker filed a patent for electrical terminal block in 1955, which was published in 1959.<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US2884613A/en</ref> During the 1950s, he lived in [[wikipedia:Winston-Salem, North Carolina|Winston-Salem, North Carolina]], where his father and half of his half-siblings lived for the rest of their lives.

He was then offered a job by [[wikipedia:General Electric|General Electric]] in [[wikipedia:Utica, New York|Utica, New York]]. Since New York is too cold (and Yankee) for Bob, he left after three years, returning back to Winston-Salem for a few years before transferring to [[wikipedia:Roanoke, Virginia|Roanoke]] in Southwest Virginia, where he discovered his love for the mountains. In 1975, he moved to [[Richmond]], where he worked until 1980, when he was transferred to [[Charlottesville]].<ref name="About" /> He worked with both Goodrich and Goodyear.<ref name="PSN 37" />

With General Electric, Bob was responsible for at least seven patents. [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]] claimed, in an email to [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Miyamoto]], that without Bob's influence in the computer world, the {{w|Nintendo Entertainment System|NES}} "...might not have arrived so soon,"<ref name="Barbara" /> ignoring the fact that the NES was designed and released in Japan in 1983, without influence from American electronics.

{{quote|Bob Chandler is one of the most creative engineers in the organization.|The General Manager at G.E.<ref>[[:File:Bob 25th Anniversary at General Electric.jpg]]</ref>}}

Examples of Bob's accomplishments include an automated steel mill for rolling steel for cars, a paper mill for the production of Kleenex, warehousing, railroads and tanker ships. He designed scooters, die casting machines, machines for producing plastic products<ref name="About" /> and a vehicle logging system.<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US3486009</ref> Both Chris and Barbara have bragged that Bob designed controls<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US3889849</ref> that were used in plastic water container molding machines.<ref name="About" /><ref name="Barbara">[[Miyamoto Saga#A Word from Snorlax]]</ref>

Bob retired in 1987 at the age of 59 or 60 after 31 years of service for General Electric.<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris#Open Letter - December 26th, 1987]]</ref> His relatively early retirement may have been provoked by health problems, as he writes in his December 1987 [[Bob's Letters to Chris|letter to Chris]] that "I know now that I, at best, haven't much time left to share myself with you".

Bob himself was proud of his, "...natural inclination for logic," although he was, "...inundated," by all his designs and whether he did well for the world. Would plastic water bottles lead to mankind's salvation or utter destruction? Only time would tell.<ref name="About" />

===World consciousness===
[[Image:0012-BobbyReading.jpg|thumb|Bob Chandler learning how to cut that Internet down.]]

{{quote|I have been very interested in the world since I was 10 years old, and that was 70 years ago and, the, uh, I'm very fond of and I really truly believe in the United Nations, but you won't find anybody else in my countryside or around here, I think, that does. (laughing) But anyway, I'm very world conscious.|[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7|Bob]]}}

Bob referred to himself as a {{w|Republican Party (United States)|Republican}}, and he did not vote for [[Barack Obama]] in {{w|United States presidential election, 2008|the 2008 presidential election}}.<ref name="Prank calls"/> That said, he had misgivings about {{w|Bob McDonnell}}, the Republican candidate in the {{w|Virginia gubernatorial election, 2009|2009 Virginia gubernatorial election}} and the ultimate winner of the election, possibly because of McDonnell's support for very strict anti-abortion laws, which made no exceptions for cases of rape or [[Chris and sex#incest|incest]]. Bob and Chris considered writing in Snoopy from ''[[Peanuts]]'' as a protest vote.<ref>[[Regina e-mails#Wikipedia: The answer to everything]]</ref>

In a potentially damaging moment on 18 [[February 2009]], Bob doubted the existence of [[Molvanîa]], [[Julie]]'s country of origin,<ref>[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.5]]</ref> but he continued talking on the grounds that his grasp of post-Soviet geography was shaky. He apparently convinced himself that Molvanîa was the same place as the real country of {{w|Moldova}}, a former Soviet republic located near the Black Sea.<ref name="PSN 37">[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7]]</ref> However, he rather damningly failed to question why Julie spoke perfect English with an American accent.

Besides Korea, Bob also visited Australia and England at some point in his life.<ref name = "Retired Life">[[Date with Emily#Retired life (0:16:59–0:24:22)]]</ref>

==Relationships==

===Previous family===

Bob was previously married to a woman named Patricia Harley on 29 September 1956 at a United Methodist church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They had two children, [[David Alan Chandler]] (b. 1961) and [[Carol Suzanne Chandler]] (b. 1964).

Bob and Patricia separated on 28 June 1976 before divorcing on 28 January 1980.<ref name="BobObit">https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/dailyprogress/name/robert-franklin-chandler-obituary?n=robert-franklin-chandler&pid=153539600</ref><ref>[[:File:1980 1 28 - Bob, Patricia divorce.png]]</ref> Bob's relationships with David and Carol were strained in his later years.<ref name="Cole2">[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-2.PNG|6 March 2007 email, page 2]]</ref> Because of this, Chris did not know he had a niece via David, named [[Savannah Chandler|Savannah]], until she was 8 years old,<ref>[[CWC's Diary#January 2004]]</ref> and Bob's relationship with Carol was even more distant. According to Chris, Bob was always concerned about Carol. None of the Chandlers knew what was going on with her, and the last they had heard was that she was working for the federal government, implying that she did not show up to her father's funeral.<ref>[[:File:Savannah_chandler3.png]]</ref> David, on the other hand, did attend his father's funeral.<ref>[[:File:Savannah_chandler.png]]</ref>

===Barbara===

[[Image:0063-BobAndBarbaraNewLife.jpg|thumb|With [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]].]]

Bob and [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]] met in 1979 at "Maddy's Pub" in Richmond<ref>[[April 2012 Facebook posts#Fear of the future]]</ref> (probably Matt's British Pub in Shockoe Slip, where Bob was a sing-along leader in the late 1970s).<ref name=godbear>[[It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]]</ref> Barbara was there with a friend and Bob was singing.<ref name="Mumble 3.5">[[Mumble 3.5]]</ref> According to Chris, Bob claimed that Barbara did the [[How to Talk to Girls|pursuing]]: "She chased him down the hallway," though Barb has disputed this.<ref>[[The 24th Wedding Anniversary Special#Part 2]]</ref> This version of events may be why Chris figured that he could get away with being passive in terms of courtship. In contrast, [[Cole Smithey|Cole]]'s friend Chuck McGuigan, who worked at the pub as a bartender, has a vivid memory of them, "...acting out as a couple of drunken losers."<ref name="Cole2" />

They got married in 1980,<ref name="Mumble 3.5" /> only months after Bob and Patricia had divorced.<ref>[[:File:1980 6 7 - Borb marriage license.jpeg]]</ref> Barb later told Chris that she ultimately married Bob because, "...he owned [[14 Branchland Court|a house]]."<ref>[[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022]]</ref>

According to Chris, Barb and Bob did not have sex for at least two decades before Bob's passing. They had been sleeping in separate rooms in the years leading up to his death.<ref>[[IRC (27 December 2008)]]</ref>

===Cole===
Bob married Barbara when her son [[Cole Smithey|Cole]] was nearly 17, around the time Cole left to lead his own life.

Cole feels that Bob's bitterness ruined the relationship between himself and his mother. Cole said he would celebrate<ref name="Cole2"/> "...when that fuck Bob finally drops,"<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-07-24-3.PNG|Email from Cole to Chris]]</ref> but it is unknown if he did so. Cole said that he and Bob shared a mutual hatred,<ref name="Cole2" /> though there isn't any proof that Bob hated Cole. At the least, Bob certainly knew Cole didn't like him.<ref name = "Meet" />

===Chris===

{{see also|Bob's Letters to Chris}}

{{quote|Get away from the Internet! I'm cutting it down, right now.|Bob Chandler, Internet lumberjack.}}

[[File:Dreaming studio.png|thumb|Dreaming studio of Mr. C and Little C. Where dreams do come true - 1989.]]

Bob's relationship with Chris was rather complex. While Bob was considered to be a better parent than his wife [[Barb]], he was by no means the good ol' pop-pop Chandler many thought he was. While Bob at least tried to help Chris, his attempts at doing so were either futile, misguided or even harmful to Chris in the long term.

When Chris was a boy, Bob encouraged him to learn more about the world and tried sharing his interests and hobbies, including engineering, geography and [[Stamps|stamp collecting]].

When Chris was seven, Bob converted a shed in the backyard of [[14 Branchland Court]] to a workshop where he and Chris could build things together, dubbing it the "dreaming studio." Chris could not recall what they had built together when asked about it in the years following Bob's death;<ref>[[IRL Tour of 14 Branchland Court]]</ref> he and Barb had been using the space for hoard storage.

Bob wished that Chris were more interested in the world. He tried to teach Chris about foreign geography, such as [[Julie|Europe]] and [[PandaHalo|Australia]], but figured (correctly) that Chris doesn't understand countries and continents beyond what he's seen on [[television]], and can only associate with the places he's physically been to in Virginia.<ref name="PSN 37" />

Bob had difficulties understanding Chris's [[Autism]] and vehemently refused to get Chris the help he needed, likely out of fear-driven inertia that is typical for people of his age and generation. In fact, he fought tooth and nail for years to keep Chris from getting the special education he needed to cope with the real world. It was the very reason why Bob rented a second home in Chesterfield County, so Chris couldn't attend special classes that Greene County recommended. Bob was most likely under the impression that Chris would be thrown into a lunatic asylum, lobotomized and that Chris needs to be sheltered all his life because of it, never mind his autistic [[Savannah|granddaughter]], who lives a relatively normal life.

When Chris entered [[Manchester High]], Bob arranged for [[Gal pal|a bunch of girls]] to be friends with Chris. He gave Chris money to hand it to at least one gal pal, claiming it was for her Friendship and Attention.

Bob enjoyed collecting stamps as a boy growing up in the 1930s, and he continued to do so for several decades, with a focus on the United Nations and foreign countries,<ref>[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7]]</ref> building a collection of stamp albums which filled six boxes.<ref>[[I'm selling my father's stamp collection; come on down and buy some of it]]</ref> He taught Chris about his hobby, buying him a beginner's stamp album in 1992.<ref>[[eBay#Chris's stamp album]]</ref> Chris seemed to enjoy the hobby as well, since he had many pages of stamps filled in. In [[Bob's Letters to Chris|letters]] to Chris (written when Chris was a few years old), Bob gave Chris permission to pass along his various collections to others after inheriting them. In 2017, Chris began selling pieces of the inherited stamp collection. Bob's pieces were decently priced, generally for $5 per set, though he tried to sell his own personal stamp album for $1,000.<ref>[[eBay]] - see listings for their stamp collections.</ref>

Bob's racist joke that [[Barack Obama]] would paint the White House black as soon as he became president influenced Chris to draw it in [[Sonichu 8|''Sonichu'' #8]].

Chris's phobia of [[Pickle|penises]] was apparently sparked by barging into his parents' room, where Bob had a habit of sleeping nude from the waist down.<ref>[[February 2020 social media posts#On seeing his father's penis]]</ref>

Chris has often complained about stressful confrontations with his father:

{{quote|well, my father is a major stressor against me; starts arguements [sic], annoys me, [[Chris and health#hygiene|rarely washes his hands after restroom breaks]] (lord knows I've tried to encourage him to wash numerous time, and rarely succeeded).|Chris, [[IRC (31 December 2008)]]}}

However, the many instances of Bob communicating with trolls show that he was generally pleasant and amicable, not at all inclined to start arguments, as Chris asserts. As seen during the lead up to the fateful encounter between [[Emily]], Chris and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]], Bob seemed to be more than happy to discuss stories with people, even those he hadn't seen or heard that much of - [[Robert Simmons V]], who met Bob during his [[Church audio|visit to Chris's church]] conversed with him extensively, later saying that he was a 'really pleasant guy.' Bob also engaged in friendly and interesting conversation with [[ThePCAssassins]] many times through [[2010]] and [[2011]], further disproving Chris's belief. The antagonism to which Chris refers was likely Bob attempting to constructively criticize Chris in order to better him, as Chris deeply resents being told what he does not want to hear.
[[File:Bob drawing Nov. '15.jpg|thumb|200px|left|A drawing of Bob by Chris, released in [[November 2015]].]]

An example of this criticism was Bob telling Chris that, since Bob had looked after Chris for 29 years despite his childish and outrageous behavior, Chris should show more gratitude towards him. Chris was completely dismissive, figuring that his father was ''obligated'' to take care of him, and seeing no reason as to why he should demonstrate any foreign concepts like "love," "support," "gratitude," and "willingness to help." Reinforcing Bob's point, Chris still ran for his father's aid when he felt threatened, as in the later parts of the [[Kacey and Liquid Call]].

Despite Bob's occasional [[Mumble 1|frustration]] over Chris's actions, he seemed to have bought into the theory that Chris is tormented by a [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|complex network of enemies spanning the entire world]], due to the success that he has earned from his own Sonichu franchise.<ref name="Church">[[Church audio]]</ref><ref name="Noble">[[Matthew Noble call]]</ref> In the [[Matthew Noble call]], it appeared that Bob was the source of Chris's tendency to bring up unrelated mishaps and debacles to make current incidents and sources of [[stress]] seem "petty" in comparison.

[[Image:0106-ChristianWDad.jpg|thumb|Bob and a younger Christian. Note Chris's "Family Bonding" shirt.]]
Once during a phone call with a troll, Bob stated that Chris was [[Chris and anger|"a hell of a lot nicer"]] and "has done a lot better than" the troll calling him.<ref name="Prank">[[Prank calls#Snake Productions Calls Bob Chandler]]</ref>

After Chris got his [[CADD]] degree, instead of telling Chris to get to work as any other parent would, he encouraged Chris to stay home just so he could continue to get his taxpayer-funded [[tugboat]].

He never seemed to get past the notion that Chris could and had already achieved things, given that he continued to have to nursemaid Chris well into his son's late 20s. In the later parts of 2009 and throughout 2010, as chronicled in Chris's emails with [[Vivian Gee E-mails, 2009|Vivian Gee]] and [[Jackie E-mails 7|Jackie]], Bob had been forced to take an increasingly active role in controlling Chris's spending and debt, paying off Chris's credit cards with his own money in an attempt to prevent interest charges from spiraling even further out of control. By the fall of 2010, he was monitoring Chris's bank accounts on a daily basis and keeping him on a strict allowance. Upon finding out about Chris's [[Tomgirl Pictures|escapades]] in early 2011, Bob's reaction was to question Chris's sexuality, at one point even calling him a "fag", even though he indirectly contributed to it through his unbalanced approach of socializing Chris.

Chris has said specifically that he doesn't have to love his father, but has to respect him.<ref>[[Mumble 1#Transcript|Mumble Chat 1]]</ref> Confidential details collected after Bob's death, however, suggests Chris was more emotionally attached than he let on, providing rare and precious evidence that Chris doesn't take the presence of others for granted. He also got genuinely emotional while reading a letter that his father had left for him on-camera, again indicating how much he misses his father.<ref>[[CLog 09042017 - Mister C]]</ref>

In [[December 2012]], Chris uploaded the soundtrack from the [[WTJU Marathon|1990 WTJU Jazz Marathon]], in which Bob was a performer and a host. It was notable as one of the few moments where Chris publicly honored his father's memory since his passing in [[September 2011]].

Bob lives on in his son's memory. Chris noted the occasion of his father's passing by attaching angel wings to the [[Lego]] minifigure representing him,<ref>Seen at 4:24 in [[CWC Lego Manchester High School Oct 18 2013]]</ref> and displaying two photos of him in front of his TV.<ref>[[:File:Totem2ebay.jpeg]]</ref> He often sees Bob in his [[dreams]].<ref>[[March 2012 Facebook Posts#Still Feeling Lonely II|March 2012 Facebook Posts]]</ref><ref>[[List of OkCupid Answers#2014 Answers--LevelUpKing|OkCupid Answers]]</ref>

Due to the influence of the [[Idea Guys]], Chris later expressed beliefs that Bob is half-Sonichu and is apparently still alive in the [[CWCville]] dimension. These beliefs began around December 2017 and continued even after the Idea Guys had been removed from power, as shown by the below quote from 2018's Father's Day.

{{quotebox|[[File:Father's Day 2018.jpg|200px|thumb]]

<nowiki>#HappyFathersDay</nowiki> to each and every Father in This World and in Every Single Other Dimension Too! My father is alive again! I still love him, even in his checker-patterned glory! ⚡️💙❤️⚡️<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20191211070743/https://twitter.com/cwcsonichu/status/1008449921387778048</ref>}}

In the [[Incest Call]], Chris claimed he was better at [[Affair with Mother|pleasuring]] [[Barb]] than his own father. One can only imagine Bob's reaction to this news if he were still alive to bear witness to what his son has become.

Despite his best efforts to the contrary, Chris, his second chance at being a father, was Bob's greatest failure as a parent, even when factoring in his strained relationship with his other children.

===Other relationships===
In spite of his redneck background, Bob seems to have gotten along better with foreigners than with his own countrymen. His closest friend in Richmond was Reverend Chen of Korean Canaan Presbyterian Church,<ref>[[Date with Emily#Eating spaghetti and conversing (0:36:49–0:44:46)]]</ref> and he had English friends through his involvement with Matt's British Pub.<ref name=godbear></ref> He also had friends in Australia,<ref>BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7</ref> and Czechoslovakian friends in late 1970s, who were illegal immigrants escaping Czechoslovakia. Chris said Bob and Barb enjoyed conversing and drinking {{w|Slivovitz}} with them and that Bob would drive to Maryland to buy Slivovitz.<ref>[[Regina_e-mails#Random-access_humor_demonstration]]</ref>

From his father's second marriage, Bob had, "...a large number of half-brothers and sisters in... [[wikipedia:Winston-Salem, North Carolina|Salem, North Carolina]],"<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris]]</ref> but he does not seem to have been very close with them. Bob's stepmother's obituary confirms that eight of these half-siblings were alive as of 2015.<ref>https://www.hufffuneralhome.com/obituary/Dorothy-Chandler</ref>

[[Prank calls#Call Bobby Chandler|Contrary to popular beliefs]], he did not have friends in the Ku Klux Klan.

==Later life, poor health and death==
{{See also|Death of Bob Chandler}}
[[File:Bob playbill for musical push cart.jpg|thumb|200px|Playbill for Mr. C. and his musical pushcart.]]

Bob lived on Social Security as well as his General Electric pension.<ref name = "Retired Life" /> He never really had people to chat with at home (he would ramble to [[Trolls|total strangers]] on the phone if he could), so he sat around, listened to music, and took care of the garden inside the greenhouse.<ref name="PSN 37" /> With a 1970s stereo system set up in the greenhouse, he went to 'swing with the music' on his swing there.<ref name="Retired Life" />

Bob had two triple bypasses and four heart attacks. The two triple-bypass operations took place first in August 1980 and at last in 1992. He had {{w|Coronary artery disease}} and wore an {{w|Artificial cardiac pacemaker|artificial pacemaker}}.<ref>[[Autism papers#FAMILY_HISTORY:]]</ref><ref>[[Mumble 3]]</ref> He apparently had several vivid near-death experiences: during [[Date with Emily#Bob's health problems (0:24:23–0:25:29)|Chris's date with]] [[Emily]], Bob tells her that he has "died" several times, and Chris says that Bob, "...has seen the light, but did not actually go to it." In one prank call, Bob revealed that after surgery for cancer it was discovered that he had a fluid build-up in his legs, which is symptomatic of CHF. This rapid decline in health worried him.<ref name="Prank calls"/> He attributed his long life to the [[Cherokee]] in him. His uncles and grandfather all lived past 90.<ref name="PSN 37" /> Despite his heart troubles he continued to eat at [[Burger King]] daily.<ref>[[Prank calls#Calls to Bob and Chris]]</ref><ref>[[Trollin Train#Hey, guys (Sun 22 Aug 2010)]]</ref>

On 1 [[March 2010]], Chris [[Twitter|tweeted]] that Bob had been taken to the hospital in the early morning for "congested [sic] {{w|heart failure}}". Chris seemed confident that his father was not in for a long stay. Considering Bob's age, lifestyle, and long history of heart disease, [[Chris and death|Chris did not seem to grasp the seriousness of his heart failure]]. Bob had been the only thing keeping [[14 Branchland Court|the Chandler household]] from imploding, and as such, trolls and [[White-Knighting|white knights]] alike wished him the very best.

[[Image:Bobbed.jpg|thumb|Apart from the dying heart]]

In the month following Bob's hospitalization, Chris was remarkably quiet on the subject of his father. News about his condition was hard to come by, as information only arose [[Chris and his Ego|when Chris was inclined to complain about it online]]. Statistically, congestive heart failure is not as immediately fatal as its name implies,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201210121845/https://www.healthline.com/health/chf-life-expectancy]</ref> but Bob's age, prior heart attacks and [[Tour of Chris's House|lifestyle]] made this a very serious situation.

Chris's videos over the month of March made no mention of Bob at all. Staying true to his painfully predictable nature, Chris instead lost a [[The Wallflower|girlfriend he never had]], [[Chris Drops the N-Bomb|made racial slurs and death threats towards a cartoon character]], and [[F Abstinance|raged against abstinence]]. His silence on the subject of his father was probably because of [[Naïve|genuine ignorance]] of the seriousness of his father's condition.

A poster on [[/cwc/]] contacted Chris via PSN regarding Bob. He posted a screen capture of Chris's response, saying, "He is doing much better, thank you."<ref>[[:File:Bobbetter.jpg]]</ref> Another contacted Chris via email and got a response saying, "Yes, my father is healthy and safe." Clearly he was neither, but this was at least proof that Bob hadn't joined the Whites-Only section of Heaven just yet. In late May, Chris finally made [[Some Favored Comedians|a brief mention]] in a public video that his father was "alive and well". Chris was, at least, half right.

==Appearances==

===In ''Sonichu''===
{{quote|Christian, you are not a girl! Go put your pants back on.|Bob, ''Sonichu'' #12}}

[[File:Chandlers & Sonichus.jpg|200px|thumb]]

In [[Sonichu 8#Spring Break, 2008!|"Spring Break, 2008"]], a radio announcement from [[Jamsta Sonichu]] mentions that Bob founded [[CWCville]] in 1982, presumably after Chris's birth on [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] given that Bob named the city after his newborn son. Comic Bob presumably served as mayor before Chris took the office at an unknown date. At other points, Bob was mentioned in Chris's tangents about hating men other than himself and his father.

In [[Sonichu 9#Episode 19|"Date Ed"]], there are two dolls for the class to practice talking to, girls received "Robert" dolls, while boys received "Barbara" dolls, an obvious reference/homage to Bob and Barb.

Bob made his first official appearance in [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]], photoshopped into a "family photo" alongside Chris, Barb and various [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]].

[[File:Borb, Sonichu12.jpg|200px|thumb|left]]

[[File:Bob,Sonichu12.jpg|200px|thumb|right]]

In [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]], Bob appears in a set of pages that combine an autobiographical account of Chris coming out as a [[tomgirl]] to his parents, and a tribute to his late father. He is depicted as an elderly man, as the page took place in 2010 (due to Chris's [[Oedipus complex]], Barb is depicted as much more youthful). He attempts to dissuade Chris from continuing his tomgirl lifestyle, although Chris states that Bob later, "...told me he accepts and love ''[sic]'' me for who I am," shortly before his passing in 2011.

Chris concludes Bob's appearance in the book with a photo in memoriam of his life, saying that he and Barb continue to miss him every day.

[[File:Chandler family as ponies.png|200px|thumb|left|Bob, pictured at right, as ''Gallop Crush'', in a [[MLP]]-inspired drawing from [[August 2017]].]]

In August 2017, Chris unveiled a drawing of the Chandler family depicted as [[My Little Pony]] characters, saying that they will make further appearances in [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]]. The ponified Bob, known as "Gallop Crush", appears as [[Night Star]]'s father, reaffirming the self-insert nature of Chris's ponysona.

In the [[Idea Guy]]-written [[Sonichu 16|''Sonichu'' #16]], Bob's spirit crosses over into CWCville where he meets and strikes up a conversation with serial killer [[Ted Bundy]].

* 27 [[August 2009]]: [[THAT IS MY HOUSE|Bob enters Chris's room]] and scolds him for making the house tour, (correctly) fearing that if someone saw the house as it was, they would be evicted (Uncut version only). This is a momentous occasion, showing some awareness on the part of the Chandlers that the filth and squalor they live in is a health hazard. This video subsequently off a wave of emails and calls to the Greene County Health Department, masterminded by trolls who hoped to realize Bob's fear of eviction, but the campaign was seemingly unsuccessful.
* [[November 2009]]: Bob and [[Barb|Snorlax]] make a brief appearance at the end of the [[Kacey and Liquid Call]].
* 15 [[August 2010]]: In his final outing on the damn Internet, Bob gets a [[Matthew Noble call|call from the GAMe PLACe]] and is informed of Chris's actions earlier in the year. He then goes on a tangent about how Chris has been tormented by everyone ever since he was banned, and then demands Michael Snyder's information. Barbara also is audible at the end of the call.
* [[Prank calls]]: Bob answered several of these. He was usually sincere when talking with prank callers, providing them with true and honest information about himself and Chris, but was occasionally pushed to trolling them back, on one occasion telling a particularly obnoxious pair of trolls that he had ties to the Ku Klux Klan.

'''Robert "Bob" Franklin Chandler Jr.'''<ref>[[Blanca E-mails#Chris likes Blanca|Email to Blanca]]</ref> (4 September [[Pre-1980#1920s|1927]] – 6 September [[2011]]<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20180110224343/http://www.harveypowers.com/wynn/wynn/d155.html</ref>) was the father of [[Christian Weston Chandler]], [[Carol Chandler]] and [[David Alan Chandler]], the stepfather of [[Cole Smithey]], and husband of [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara Weston Chandler]]. Bob became a firm favorite with [[trolls]] due to Chris's antipathy towards him and for his infamous cameo when he [[Bob Walks In|walked in]] on Chris [[mass debating]].<ref>[[Bob Walks In]]</ref> His nickname, "The [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]] Lumberjack," came from this incident, wherein he promised to cut the internet down.

Despite being estranged from his other children, and despised by his stepson for abusive behavior, Bob was widely viewed as a better parent than his wife [[Barbara]] by Christorians, and – as far as Chris's own testimony can be trusted – he treated Chris better than any of his previous children. Bob had serious difficulties working with Chris's [[autism]], a disorder that both he and his wife did not fully understand, but nonetheless, he had high hopes for his child in spite of the difficulties that he faced. Bob hoped to instill Chris with a variety of interests that reflected his own varied tastes, and he created The Dreaming Studio in their backyard in the hopes that they'd create things there (though, sadly, nothing of note was ever created there).

Because of this, Bob's popularity stems from being somewhat concerned with Chris's foolish behavior, and the fact that he occasionally tried to encourage a modicum of responsibility in Chris's life, bringing up the fact that he devoted 29 years to raising his son. Of course, Chris was almost entirely unaffected by Bob's efforts to better him, but unlike Barb, he at least made the effort, even if his attempts were futile or harmful at worst. That being said, he also encouraged Chris to ''not'' seek employment in favor of getting [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]], even though Chris could still hold a part-time job and receive those benefits, so he's not entirely blameless for the state that his son is in today, either. Not to mention that many of [[Homos|Chris's more backward]] [[Chris and race|social perspectives]] that he had in the "Classic Era" stem from his influence.

Bob was always eager to chat, and indeed much of the known information about Bob's life comes from conversations he had with trolls. It seems that Chris's passion for [[Honest Content]] did not fall too far from that tree, although Bob at least had a filter that his son lacks. Whether in person or over the phone, Bob appeared to relish the opportunity to speak with just about anyone. According to Chris, he was also a strong negotiator.<ref>[[The Place chats - ProjectSNT and Opuscon789#Browsing Kiwi Farms]]</ref>

On 6 September 2011, Bob died of complications from heart failure at Martha Jefferson Hospital ICU, surrounded by his family, his pastor and hospital staff.<ref name="BobObitarchive">http://web.archive.org/web/20130211071324/http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/dailyprogress/obituary.aspx?n=robert-franklin-chandler&pid=153539600 (archive from 11 Feb 2013)</ref> He was survived by his wife and son, who then had to become the man of the house. Chris occasionally raked in some income through commission work, though he has never looked for a serious career. Chris initially came to terms with his father's death in a conventional, healthy way, but eventually turned to a [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism where he genuinely believed that his father was alive in [[Dimensions|another dimension]] as a [[Sonichu (species)|Sonichu]] named Robertchu.

Years later in 2021, Chris would disgrace Bob's memory by repeatedly having dubiously-consensual sex with his wife in an [[Affair with Mother|incest]]-based affair, with Chris bragging that he could get Barb off better than "Mr. C" ever could. Following this incident, both were separated from the house that he maintained, with Chris jailed, Barb temporarily hospitalized before eventually returning to the residence, and the Dreaming Studio left abandoned for good.

==Biography==
Bob was born on 4:15 PM at a medical arts building in {{w|Fort Worth, Texas}},<ref name="Prank calls">[[Prank calls]]</ref> and raised in {{w|Sylacauga, Alabama}}.<ref name="About">[[Date with Emily#Bob's work history (0:07:18–0:16:58)]]</ref> He was the only child of Robert "Bob" Franklin Chandler Sr. (8 February 1906<ref>https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/103153414/robert-franklin-chandler ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160328063730/https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/H5S7-BZM archive])</ref> – 27 December 1977<ref>https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FG5R-6M6 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160328072547/https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FG5R-6M6 archive])</ref>), an Alabamian insurance agent, and Jean Hollomon (28 March 1906<ref>https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/5947049/jean-chandler ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160328094240/https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/H5S7-12M archive])</ref> – 10 May 1945<ref>https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JK33-QW8 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160328092829/https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JK33-QW8 archive])</ref>), a Texan housewife.<ref>[[:File:Bob Chandler's birth certificate.jpg]]</ref> Bob has eight younger half-siblings on his father's side.<ref>https://www.hufffuneralhome.com/obituary/Dorothy-Chandler</ref> He also mentioned having a cousin and several [[Cherokee]] relatives in Oklahoma.<ref>[[Prank calls#Bob Calls Himself]]</ref><ref>[[Prank calls#A Redneck calls Bob Chandler]]</ref> However, a distant relative disputed his Cherokee heritage,<ref>[[Chandler Family Tree#Ancestry.com content]]</ref> and his son's [[Cherokian Clan#Reality|DNA test results]] in 2018 belied any American Indian descent. It is common for white Southerners to make dubious claims to Cherokee ancestry, for a variety of historical reasons.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201210120042/https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2015/10/cherokee-blood-why-do-so-many-americans-believe-they-have-cherokee-ancestry.html Slate article]</ref>

[[File:Bob_Chandler_1945.png|thumb|right|200px|Bob Chandler (left) as a Boy Scout in 1945.]]

Bob has said that he was, "...interested in the world," around him since he was ten, and began collecting foreign [[stamps]] as a child in the [[1930s]]; his first stamp was of {{w|Michael I of Romania}}. He also developed an interest in foreign music, eventually collecting some 15,000–20,000 LPs from various genres and cultures.<ref name="PSN 37"/> About 100 or so survived the 2014 [[house fire]].<ref>[[Discord Q&A 4#Bob's record collection]]</ref>

Bob joined the [[wikipedia:Boy Scouts of America|Boy Scouts]], becoming an Eagle Scout and a Scoutmaster for over 20 years.<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris]]</ref>

According to Chris, Bob lost his [[virgin with rage|virginity]] at the age of 27, which would have been in 1954 or 1955.<ref>[[January 2012 Facebook Posts#February is coming up]]</ref>

===Service and education===

A 1942 yearbook from Sylacauga High School lists a "Bobby Chandler" in the freshman class and glee club, suggesting that he graduated from this school in spring 1945 before matriculating at {{w|Auburn University}} as an aeronautical engineering major that autumn.

[[File:Chris Korean War Graphic.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Bob served in Korea, and, thankfully for Chris, who believes that he was a sperm carried in one of his father's testicles during that time, he left before the Korean War broke out.]]

Bob apparently had knowledge that the Army desired,<ref>(Majoring in Aeronautical Engineering, Auburn University, Freshman p. 95 of the 1946 yearbook [https://web.archive.org/web/20170725175556/http://content.lib.auburn.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/gloms/id/4124/rec/14])</ref> was conscripted as a special draftee in 1946 and placed in the {{w|Signal Corps (United States Army)|Signal Corps}}. There, he learned how to install valve systems, switchboards, and telephones. After basic training and Signal School in {{w|Fort Monmouth}}, New Jersey, Bob was sent to Korea for a year to install infrastructure with the American occupation force. Bob recounted a reckless decision he made during his time in the Army after returning from Korea for the Christmas holiday in 1947. He hitchhiked to New York City, where he stayed for two weeks before running out of money, and then had to figure out how to get back to Fort Monmouth.. Serving until 1948, he was entitled to the WWII Victory Medal: his service number was 44107856.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201210120633/https://aad.archives.gov/aad/record-detail.jsp?dt=893&mtch=11&tf=F&q=Chandler&bc=&sort=24996%2520desc&rpp=10&pg=4&rid=8565331&rlst=5136538%2C4652469%2C8564216%2C1000879%2C987835%2C4549799%2C991002%2C8565331%2C5188385%2C8565346]</ref>

Figuring he'd get "swallowed up" at a big college, Bob picked a small college, {{w|Jacksonville State Teachers College}} (now Jacksonville State University), after leaving the military. He studied pre-engineering and played French horn for the band and orchestra there for two years before returning to Auburn University, where he studied electrical engineering and graduated in 1952 with a {{w|Bachelor of Electrical Engineering}} degree.<ref>(page 269 of the 1952 yearbook)[https://web.archive.org/web/20170725175342/http://content.lib.auburn.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/gloms/id/16173/rec/20] {{w|G.I. Bill}}.</ref><ref name="About" /> As an engineer, he never learned to spell properly.<ref name = "Meet">[[Date with Emily#Meet the Parent (0:05:20–0:07:17)]]</ref> While he was at Auburn, he was part of the band once again, was a member of {{w|Wesley Foundation}}, a [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|United Methodist]] religious group; and Phi Mu Alpha, a social frat dedicated to men who are interested in music.

===Career===
[[File:Bob 25th Anniversary at General Electric.jpg|thumb|200px|Article on Bob's 25th anniversary at General Electric.]]

A 1946 military record included Bob's occupation while he was a student as "tinsmith, coppersmith, and sheet metal worker".

Bob worked for {{w|Western Electric}} as an engineer for four years, where he designed a variety of electrical subsystems, including relays, telephones and valve systems. Initially, he was working with the radar systems in test-planning automatic test equipment. With Western Electric, Bob and his co-worker filed a patent for electrical terminal block in 1955, which was published in 1959.<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US2884613A/en</ref> During the 1950s, he lived in [[wikipedia:Winston-Salem, North Carolina|Winston-Salem, North Carolina]], where his father and half of his half-siblings lived for the rest of their lives.

He was then offered a job by [[wikipedia:General Electric|General Electric]] in [[wikipedia:Utica, New York|Utica, New York]]. Since New York is too cold (and Yankee) for Bob, he left after three years, returning back to Winston-Salem for a few years before transferring to [[wikipedia:Roanoke, Virginia|Roanoke]] in Southwest Virginia, where he discovered his love for the mountains. In 1975, he moved to [[Richmond]], where he worked until 1980, when he was transferred to [[Charlottesville]].<ref name="About" /> He worked with both Goodrich and Goodyear.<ref name="PSN 37" />

With General Electric, Bob was responsible for at least seven patents. [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]] claimed, in an email to [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Miyamoto]], that without Bob's influence in the computer world, the {{w|Nintendo Entertainment System|NES}} "...might not have arrived so soon,"<ref name="Barbara" /> ignoring the fact that the NES was designed and released in Japan in 1983, without influence from American electronics.

{{quote|Bob Chandler is one of the most creative engineers in the organization.|The General Manager at G.E.<ref>[[:File:Bob 25th Anniversary at General Electric.jpg]]</ref>}}

Examples of Bob's accomplishments include an automated steel mill for rolling steel for cars, a paper mill for the production of Kleenex, warehousing, railroads and tanker ships. He designed scooters, die casting machines, machines for producing plastic products<ref name="About" /> and a vehicle logging system.<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US3486009</ref> Both Chris and Barbara have bragged that Bob designed controls<ref>https://patents.google.com/patent/US3889849</ref> that were used in plastic water container molding machines.<ref name="About" /><ref name="Barbara">[[Miyamoto Saga#A Word from Snorlax]]</ref>

Bob retired in 1987 at the age of 59 or 60 after 31 years of service for General Electric.<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris#Open Letter - December 26th, 1987]]</ref> His relatively early retirement may have been provoked by health problems, as he writes in his December 1987 [[Bob's Letters to Chris|letter to Chris]] that "I know now that I, at best, haven't much time left to share myself with you".

Bob himself was proud of his, "...natural inclination for logic," although he was, "...inundated," by all his designs and whether he did well for the world. Would plastic water bottles lead to mankind's salvation or utter destruction? Only time would tell.<ref name="About" />

===World consciousness===
[[Image:0012-BobbyReading.jpg|thumb|Bob Chandler learning how to cut that Internet down.]]

{{quote|I have been very interested in the world since I was 10 years old, and that was 70 years ago and, the, uh, I'm very fond of and I really truly believe in the United Nations, but you won't find anybody else in my countryside or around here, I think, that does. (laughing) But anyway, I'm very world conscious.|[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7|Bob]]}}

Bob referred to himself as a {{w|Republican Party (United States)|Republican}}, and he did not vote for [[Barack Obama]] in {{w|United States presidential election, 2008|the 2008 presidential election}}.<ref name="Prank calls"/> That said, he had misgivings about {{w|Bob McDonnell}}, the Republican candidate in the {{w|Virginia gubernatorial election, 2009|2009 Virginia gubernatorial election}} and the ultimate winner of the election, possibly because of McDonnell's support for very strict anti-abortion laws, which made no exceptions for cases of rape or [[Chris and sex#incest|incest]]. Bob and Chris considered writing in Snoopy from ''[[Peanuts]]'' as a protest vote.<ref>[[Regina e-mails#Wikipedia: The answer to everything]]</ref>

In a potentially damaging moment on 18 [[February 2009]], Bob doubted the existence of [[Molvanîa]], [[Julie]]'s country of origin,<ref>[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.5]]</ref> but he continued talking on the grounds that his grasp of post-Soviet geography was shaky. He apparently convinced himself that Molvanîa was the same place as the real country of {{w|Moldova}}, a former Soviet republic located near the Black Sea.<ref name="PSN 37">[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7]]</ref> However, he rather damningly failed to question why Julie spoke perfect English with an American accent.

Besides Korea, Bob also visited Australia and England at some point in his life.<ref name = "Retired Life">[[Date with Emily#Retired life (0:16:59–0:24:22)]]</ref>

==Relationships==

===Previous family===

Bob was previously married to a woman named Patricia Harley on 29 September 1956 at a United Methodist church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They had two children, [[David Alan Chandler]] (b. 1961) and [[Carol Suzanne Chandler]] (b. 1964).

Bob and Patricia separated on 28 June 1976 before divorcing on 28 January 1980.<ref name="BobObit">https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/dailyprogress/name/robert-franklin-chandler-obituary?n=robert-franklin-chandler&pid=153539600</ref><ref>[[:File:1980 1 28 - Bob, Patricia divorce.png]]</ref> Bob's relationships with David and Carol were strained in his later years.<ref name="Cole2">[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-2.PNG|6 March 2007 email, page 2]]</ref> Because of this, Chris did not know he had a niece via David, named [[Savannah Chandler|Savannah]], until she was 8 years old,<ref>[[CWC's Diary#January 2004]]</ref> and Bob's relationship with Carol was even more distant. According to Chris, Bob was always concerned about Carol. None of the Chandlers knew what was going on with her, and the last they had heard was that she was working for the federal government, implying that she did not show up to her father's funeral.<ref>[[:File:Savannah_chandler3.png]]</ref> David, on the other hand, did attend his father's funeral.<ref>[[:File:Savannah_chandler.png]]</ref>

===Barbara===

[[Image:0063-BobAndBarbaraNewLife.jpg|thumb|With [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]].]]

Bob and [[Barbara Chandler|Barbara]] met in 1979 at "Maddy's Pub" in Richmond<ref>[[April 2012 Facebook posts#Fear of the future]]</ref> (probably Matt's British Pub in Shockoe Slip, where Bob was a sing-along leader in the late 1970s).<ref name=godbear>[[It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]]</ref> Barbara was there with a friend and Bob was singing.<ref name="Mumble 3.5">[[Mumble 3.5]]</ref> According to Chris, Bob claimed that Barbara did the [[How to Talk to Girls|pursuing]]: "She chased him down the hallway," though Barb has disputed this.<ref>[[The 24th Wedding Anniversary Special#Part 2]]</ref> This version of events may be why Chris figured that he could get away with being passive in terms of courtship. In contrast, [[Cole Smithey|Cole]]'s friend Chuck McGuigan, who worked at the pub as a bartender, has a vivid memory of them, "...acting out as a couple of drunken losers."<ref name="Cole2" />

They got married in 1980,<ref name="Mumble 3.5" /> only months after Bob and Patricia had divorced.<ref>[[:File:1980 6 7 - Borb marriage license.jpeg]]</ref> Barb later told Chris that she ultimately married Bob because, "...he owned [[14 Branchland Court|a house]]."<ref>[[Jail Letter - 11 May 2022]]</ref>

According to Chris, Barb and Bob did not have sex for at least two decades before Bob's passing. They had been sleeping in separate rooms in the years leading up to his death.<ref>[[IRC (27 December 2008)]]</ref>

===Cole===
Bob married Barbara when her son [[Cole Smithey|Cole]] was nearly 17, around the time Cole left to lead his own life.

Cole feels that Bob's bitterness ruined the relationship between himself and his mother. Cole said he would celebrate<ref name="Cole2"/> "...when that fuck Bob finally drops,"<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-07-24-3.PNG|Email from Cole to Chris]]</ref> but it is unknown if he did so. Cole said that he and Bob shared a mutual hatred,<ref name="Cole2" /> though there isn't any proof that Bob hated Cole. At the least, it is certain that Bob knew Cole didn't like him.<ref name = "Meet" />

===Chris===

{{see also|Bob's Letters to Chris}}

{{quote|Get away from the Internet! I'm cutting it down, right now.|Bob Chandler, Internet lumberjack.}}

[[File:Dreaming studio.png|thumb|Dreaming studio of Mr. C and Little C. Where dreams do come true - 1989.]]

Bob's relationship with Chris was rather complex. While Bob was considered to be a better parent than his wife [[Barb]], he was by no means the good ol' pop-pop Chandler many thought he was. While Bob at least tried to help Chris, his attempts at doing so were either futile, misguided or even harmful to Chris in the long term.

When Chris was a boy, Bob encouraged him to learn more about the world and tried sharing his interests and hobbies, including engineering, geography and [[Stamps|stamp collecting]].

When Chris was seven, Bob converted a shed in the backyard of [[14 Branchland Court]] to a workshop where he and Chris could build things together, dubbing it the "dreaming studio." Chris could not recall what they had built together when asked about it in the years following Bob's death;<ref>[[IRL Tour of 14 Branchland Court]]</ref> he and Barb had been using the space for hoard storage.

Bob wished that Chris were more interested in the world. He tried to teach Chris about foreign geography, such as [[Julie|Europe]] and [[PandaHalo|Australia]], but figured (correctly) that Chris doesn't understand countries and continents beyond what he's seen on [[television]], and can only associate with the places he's physically been to in Virginia.<ref name="PSN 37" />

Bob had difficulties understanding Chris's [[Autism]] and vehemently refused to get Chris the help he needed, likely out of fear-driven inertia that is typical for people of his age and generation. In fact, he fought tooth and nail for years to keep Chris from getting the special education he needed to cope with the real world. It was the very reason why Bob rented a second home in Chesterfield County, so Chris couldn't attend special classes that Greene County recommended. Bob was most likely under the impression that Chris would be thrown into a lunatic asylum, lobotomized and that Chris needs to be sheltered all his life because of it, never mind his autistic [[Savannah|granddaughter]], who lives a relatively normal life.

When Chris entered [[Manchester High]], Bob arranged for [[Gal pal|a bunch of girls]] to be friends with Chris. He gave Chris money to hand it to at least one gal pal, claiming it was for her Friendship and Attention.

Bob enjoyed collecting stamps as a boy growing up in the 1930s, and he continued to do so for several decades, with a focus on the United Nations and foreign countries,<ref>[[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7]]</ref> building a collection of stamp albums which filled six boxes.<ref>[[I'm selling my father's stamp collection; come on down and buy some of it]]</ref> He taught Chris about his hobby, buying him a beginner's stamp album in 1992.<ref>[[eBay#Chris's stamp album]]</ref> Chris seemed to enjoy the hobby as well, since he had many pages of stamps filled in. In [[Bob's Letters to Chris|letters]] to Chris (written when Chris was a few years old), Bob gave Chris permission to pass along his various collections to others after inheriting them. In 2017, Chris began selling pieces of the inherited stamp collection. Bob's pieces were decently priced, generally for $5 per set, though he tried to sell his own personal stamp album for $1,000.<ref>[[eBay]] - see listings for their stamp collections.</ref>

Bob's racist joke that [[Barack Obama]] would paint the White House black as soon as he became president influenced Chris to draw it in [[Sonichu 8|''Sonichu'' #8]].

Chris's phobia of [[Pickle|penises]] was apparently sparked by barging into his parents' room, where Bob had a habit of sleeping nude from the waist down.<ref>[[February 2020 social media posts#On seeing his father's penis]]</ref>

Chris has often complained about stressful confrontations with his father:

{{quote|well, my father is a major stressor against me; starts arguements [sic], annoys me, [[Chris and health#hygiene|rarely washes his hands after restroom breaks]] (lord knows I've tried to encourage him to wash numerous time, and rarely succeeded).|Chris, [[IRC (31 December 2008)]]}}

However, the many instances of Bob communicating with trolls show that he was generally pleasant and amicable, not at all inclined to start arguments, as Chris asserts. As seen during the lead up to the fateful encounter between [[Emily]], Chris and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]], Bob seemed to be more than happy to discuss stories with people, even those he hadn't seen or heard that much of - [[Robert Simmons V]], who met Bob during his [[Church audio|visit to Chris's church]] conversed with him extensively, later saying that he was a 'really pleasant guy.' Bob also engaged in friendly and interesting conversation with [[ThePCAssassins]] many times through [[2010]] and [[2011]], further disproving Chris's belief. The antagonism to which Chris refers was likely Bob attempting to constructively criticize Chris in order to better him, as Chris deeply resents being told what he does not want to hear.
[[File:Bob drawing Nov. '15.jpg|thumb|200px|left|A drawing of Bob by Chris, released in [[November 2015]].]]

An example of this criticism was Bob telling Chris that, since Bob had looked after Chris for 29 years despite his childish and outrageous behavior, Chris should show more gratitude towards him. Chris was completely dismissive, figuring that his father was ''obligated'' to take care of him, and seeing no reason as to why he should demonstrate any foreign concepts like "love," "support," "gratitude," and "willingness to help." Reinforcing Bob's point, Chris still ran for his father's aid when he felt threatened, as in the later parts of the [[Kacey and Liquid Call]].

Despite Bob's occasional [[Mumble 1|frustration]] over Chris's actions, he seemed to have bought into the theory that Chris is tormented by a [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|complex network of enemies spanning the entire world]], due to the success that he has earned from his own Sonichu franchise.<ref name="Church">[[Church audio]]</ref><ref name="Noble">[[Matthew Noble call]]</ref> In the [[Matthew Noble call]], it appeared that Bob was the source of Chris's tendency to bring up unrelated mishaps and debacles to make current incidents and sources of [[stress]] seem "petty" in comparison.

[[Image:0106-ChristianWDad.jpg|thumb|Bob and a younger Christian. Note Chris's "Family Bonding" shirt.]]
Once during a phone call with a troll, Bob stated that Chris was [[Chris and anger|"a hell of a lot nicer"]] and "has done a lot better than" the troll calling him.<ref name="Prank">[[Prank calls#Snake Productions Calls Bob Chandler]]</ref>

After Chris got his [[CADD]] degree, instead of telling Chris to get to work as any other parent would, he encouraged Chris to stay home just so he could continue to get his taxpayer-funded [[tugboat]].

He never seemed to get past the notion that Chris could and had already achieved things, given that he continued to have to nursemaid Chris well into his son's late 20s. In the later parts of 2009 and throughout 2010, as chronicled in Chris's emails with [[Vivian Gee E-mails, 2009|Vivian Gee]] and [[Jackie E-mails 7|Jackie]], Bob had been forced to take an increasingly active role in controlling Chris's spending and debt, paying off Chris's credit cards with his own money in an attempt to prevent interest charges from spiraling even further out of control. By the fall of 2010, he was monitoring Chris's bank accounts on a daily basis and keeping him on a strict allowance. Upon finding out about Chris's [[Tomgirl Pictures|escapades]] in early 2011, Bob's reaction was to question Chris's sexuality, at one point even calling him a "fag", even though he indirectly contributed to it through his unbalanced approach of socializing Chris.

Chris has said specifically that he doesn't have to love his father, but has to respect him.<ref>[[Mumble 1#Transcript|Mumble Chat 1]]</ref> Confidential details collected after Bob's death, however, suggests Chris was more emotionally attached than he let on, providing rare and precious evidence that Chris doesn't take the presence of others for granted. He also got genuinely emotional while reading a letter that his father had left for him on-camera, again indicating how much he misses his father.<ref>[[CLog 09042017 - Mister C]]</ref>

In [[December 2012]], Chris uploaded the soundtrack from the [[WTJU Marathon|1990 WTJU Jazz Marathon]], in which Bob was a performer and a host. It was notable as one of the few moments where Chris publicly honored his father's memory since his passing in [[September 2011]].

Bob lives on in his son's memory. Chris noted the occasion of his father's passing by attaching angel wings to the [[Lego]] minifigure representing him,<ref>Seen at 4:24 in [[CWC Lego Manchester High School Oct 18 2013]]</ref> and displaying two photos of him in front of his TV.<ref>[[:File:Totem2ebay.jpeg]]</ref> He often sees Bob in his [[dreams]].<ref>[[March 2012 Facebook Posts#Still Feeling Lonely II|March 2012 Facebook Posts]]</ref><ref>[[List of OkCupid Answers#2014 Answers--LevelUpKing|OkCupid Answers]]</ref>

Due to the influence of the [[Idea Guys]], Chris later expressed beliefs that Bob is half-Sonichu and is apparently still alive in the [[CWCville]] dimension. These beliefs began around December 2017 and continued even after the Idea Guys had been removed from power, as shown by the below quote from 2018's Father's Day.

{{quotebox|[[File:Father's Day 2018.jpg|200px|thumb]]

<nowiki>#HappyFathersDay</nowiki> to each and every Father in This World and in Every Single Other Dimension Too! My father is alive again! I still love him, even in his checker-patterned glory! ⚡️💙❤️⚡️<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20191211070743/https://twitter.com/cwcsonichu/status/1008449921387778048</ref>}}

In the [[Incest Call]], Chris claimed he was better at [[Affair with Mother|pleasuring]] [[Barb]] than his own father. One can only imagine Bob's reaction to this news if he were still alive to bear witness to what his son has become.

Despite his best efforts to the contrary, Chris, his second chance at being a father, was Bob's greatest failure as a parent, even when factoring in his strained relationship with his other children.

===Other relationships===
In spite of his redneck background, Bob seems to have gotten along better with foreigners than with his own countrymen. His closest friend in Richmond was Reverend Chen of Korean Canaan Presbyterian Church,<ref>[[Date with Emily#Eating spaghetti and conversing (0:36:49–0:44:46)]]</ref> and he had English friends through his involvement with Matt's British Pub.<ref name=godbear></ref> He also had friends in Australia,<ref>BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7</ref> and Czechoslovakian friends in late 1970s, who were illegal immigrants escaping Czechoslovakia. Chris said Bob and Barb enjoyed conversing and drinking {{w|Slivovitz}} with them and that Bob would drive to Maryland to buy Slivovitz.<ref>[[Regina_e-mails#Random-access_humor_demonstration]]</ref>

From his father's second marriage, Bob had, "...a large number of half-brothers and sisters in... [[wikipedia:Winston-Salem, North Carolina|Salem, North Carolina]],"<ref>[[Bob's Letters to Chris]]</ref> but he does not seem to have been very close with them. Bob's stepmother's obituary confirms that eight of these half-siblings were alive as of 2015.<ref>https://www.hufffuneralhome.com/obituary/Dorothy-Chandler</ref>

[[Prank calls#Call Bobby Chandler|Contrary to popular beliefs]], he did not have friends in the Ku Klux Klan.

==Later life, poor health and death==
{{See also|Death of Bob Chandler}}
[[File:Bob playbill for musical push cart.jpg|thumb|200px|Playbill for Mr. C. and his musical pushcart.]]

Bob lived on Social Security as well as his General Electric pension.<ref name = "Retired Life" /> He never really had people to chat with at home (he would ramble to [[Trolls|total strangers]] on the phone if he could), so he sat around, listened to music, and took care of the garden inside the greenhouse.<ref name="PSN 37" /> With a 1970s stereo system set up in the greenhouse, he went to 'swing with the music' on his swing there.<ref name="Retired Life" />

Bob had two triple bypasses and four heart attacks. The two triple-bypass operations took place first in August 1980 and at last in 1992. He had {{w|Coronary artery disease}} and wore an {{w|Artificial cardiac pacemaker|artificial pacemaker}}.<ref>[[Autism papers#FAMILY_HISTORY:]]</ref><ref>[[Mumble 3]]</ref> He apparently had several vivid near-death experiences: during [[Date with Emily#Bob's health problems (0:24:23–0:25:29)|Chris's date with]] [[Emily]], Bob tells her that he has "died" several times, and Chris says that Bob, "...has seen the light, but did not actually go to it." In one prank call, Bob revealed that after surgery for cancer it was discovered that he had a fluid build-up in his legs, which is symptomatic of CHF. This rapid decline in health worried him.<ref name="Prank calls"/> He attributed his long life to the [[Cherokee]] in him. His uncles and grandfather all lived past 90.<ref name="PSN 37" /> Despite his heart troubles he continued to eat at [[Burger King]] daily.<ref>[[Prank calls#Calls to Bob and Chris]]</ref><ref>[[Trollin Train#Hey, guys (Sun 22 Aug 2010)]]</ref>

On 1 [[March 2010]], Chris [[Twitter|tweeted]] that Bob had been taken to the hospital in the early morning for "congested [sic] {{w|heart failure}}". Chris seemed confident that his father was not in for a long stay. Considering Bob's age, lifestyle, and long history of heart disease, [[Chris and death|Chris did not seem to grasp the seriousness of his heart failure]]. Bob had been the only thing keeping [[14 Branchland Court|the Chandler household]] from imploding, and as such, trolls and [[White-Knighting|white knights]] alike wished him the very best.

[[Image:Bobbed.jpg|thumb|Apart from the dying heart]]

In the month following Bob's hospitalization, Chris was remarkably quiet on the subject of his father. News about his condition was hard to come by, as information only arose [[Chris and his Ego|when Chris was inclined to complain about it online]]. Statistically, congestive heart failure is not as immediately fatal as its name implies,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20201210121845/https://www.healthline.com/health/chf-life-expectancy]</ref> but Bob's age, prior heart attacks and [[Tour of Chris's House|lifestyle]] made this a very serious situation.

Chris's videos over the month of March made no mention of Bob at all. Staying true to his painfully predictable nature, Chris instead lost a [[The Wallflower|girlfriend he never had]], [[Chris Drops the N-Bomb|made racial slurs and death threats towards a cartoon character]], and [[F Abstinance|raged against abstinence]]. His silence on the subject of his father was probably because of [[Naïve|genuine ignorance]] of the seriousness of his father's condition.

A poster on [[/cwc/]] contacted Chris via PSN regarding Bob. He posted a screen capture of Chris's response, saying, "He is doing much better, thank you."<ref>[[:File:Bobbetter.jpg]]</ref> Another contacted Chris via email and got a response saying, "Yes, my father is healthy and safe." Clearly he was neither, but this was at least proof that Bob hadn't joined the Whites-Only section of Heaven just yet. In late May, Chris finally made [[Some Favored Comedians|a brief mention]] in a public video that his father was "alive and well". Chris was, at least, half right.

==Appearances==

===In ''Sonichu''===
{{quote|Christian, you are not a girl! Go put your pants back on.|Bob, ''Sonichu'' #12}}

[[File:Chandlers & Sonichus.jpg|200px|thumb]]

In [[Sonichu 8#Spring Break, 2008!|"Spring Break, 2008"]], a radio announcement from [[Jamsta Sonichu]] mentions that Bob founded [[CWCville]] in 1982, presumably after Chris's birth on [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] given that Bob named the city after his newborn son. Comic Bob presumably served as mayor before Chris took the office at an unknown date. At other points, Bob was mentioned in Chris's tangents about hating men other than himself and his father.

In [[Sonichu 9#Episode 19|"Date Ed"]], there are two dolls for the class to practice talking to, girls received "Robert" dolls, while boys received "Barbara" dolls, an obvious reference/homage to Bob and Barb.

Bob made his first official appearance in [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]], photoshopped into a "family photo" alongside Chris, Barb and various [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]].

[[File:Borb, Sonichu12.jpg|200px|thumb|left]]

[[File:Bob,Sonichu12.jpg|200px|thumb|right]]

In [[Sonichu 12|''Sonichu'' #12]], Bob appears in a set of pages that combine an autobiographical account of Chris coming out as a [[tomgirl]] to his parents, and a tribute to his late father. He is depicted as an elderly man, as the page took place in 2010 (due to Chris's [[Oedipus complex]], Barb is depicted as much more youthful). He attempts to dissuade Chris from continuing his tomgirl lifestyle, although Chris states that Bob later, "...told me he accepts and love ''[sic]'' me for who I am," shortly before his passing in 2011.

Chris concludes Bob's appearance in the book with a photo in memoriam of his life, saying that he and Barb continue to miss him every day.

[[File:Chandler family as ponies.png|200px|thumb|left|Bob, pictured at right, as ''Gallop Crush'', in a [[MLP]]-inspired drawing from [[August 2017]].]]

In August 2017, Chris unveiled a drawing of the Chandler family depicted as [[My Little Pony]] characters, saying that they will make further appearances in [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]]. The ponified Bob, known as "Gallop Crush", appears as [[Night Star]]'s father, reaffirming the self-insert nature of Chris's ponysona.

In the [[Idea Guy]]-written [[Sonichu 16|''Sonichu'' #16]], Bob's spirit crosses over into CWCville where he meets and strikes up a conversation with serial killer [[Ted Bundy]].

===Audio and video===

In every appearance, Bob has proven himself to be better at charming Chris's [[sweetheart]]s than Chris himself (not a difficult feat, to be fair).

* [[1990]]: Bob appeared as the DJ to the [[WTJU Marathon]].
* 26 February [[1994]]: Bob appears briefly behind Chris from 0:26-0:36 in the news report of the [[Chris in the media|Sonic Watch & Win Sweepstakes]].
*[[Christmas|25 December]] [[2004]]: Bob makes multiple physical appearences in [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004]], where he appears remarkably depressed.
* 14 [[February 2009]]: [[Bob Walks In]] to Chris [[mass debating]] in the [[kitchen]].
* 18 [[February 2009]]: In [[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.5]] and [[BlueSpike PSN Chat 3.7|3.7]], Bob rambles to [[Julie]].
* 15 [[March 2009]]: Bob [[Church Visit|talked]] to [[Robert Simmons V]] at [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|church]] while [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|Chris went to shit himself]].
* [[March 2009]]: Bob chaperoned Chris on his date with [[Emily]].
* 27 [[March 2009]]: Bob gets intruded by Chris in the [[Tour of Christian's House]], but is not visible.
* 27 [[August 2009]]: [[THAT IS MY HOUSE|Bob enters Chris's room]] and scolds him for making the house tour, (correctly) fearing that if someone saw the house as it was, they would be evicted (Uncut version only). This is a momentous occasion, showing some awareness on the part of the Chandlers that the filth and squalor they live in is a health hazard. This video subsequently off a wave of emails and calls to the Greene County Health Department, masterminded by trolls who hoped to realize Bob's fear of eviction, but the campaign was seemingly unsuccessful.
* [[November 2009]]: Bob and [[Barb|Snorlax]] make a brief appearance at the end of the [[Kacey and Liquid Call]].
* 15 [[August 2010]]: In his final outing on the damn Internet, Bob gets a [[Matthew Noble call|call from the GAMe PLACe]] and is informed of Chris's actions earlier in the year. He then goes on a tangent about how Chris has been tormented by everyone ever since he was banned, and then demands Michael Snyder's information. Barbara also is audible at the end of the call.
* [[Prank calls]]: Bob answered several of these. He was usually sincere when talking with prank callers, providing them with true and honest information about himself and Chris, but was occasionally pushed to trolling them back, on one occasion telling a particularly obnoxious pair of trolls that he had ties to the Ku Klux Klan.

Chris's birthday

{{quote|Today we celebrate our CHRISTIAN LOVE DAY!|Chris, on being nearly 30.<ref name="lovedayvid">[[Christian Love Day (video)]]</ref>}}
[[File:175-SchuBday.jpg|thumb|Best wishes from Sonichu.]]

'''[[Chris]]'s birthday''', 24 February, also known as '''[[Christian Love Day]]''' (or '''Spiritual Love Day''', circa [[2024]]), is a significant date in his life, for [[Chris and his ego|obvious reasons]]. However, the bizarre inconsistency of how he celebrates (from some new [[vidya]], to [[Examples of Chris's Ego#Christian Love Day|wanting his birthday to be a national holiday]]) warrants some inspection. [[CWCville|Coincidentally]], it was also the day the [[Nazis|Nazi Party]] was founded way back in [[Pre-1980#1920s|1920]],<ref>{{w|Nazi Party|Nazi Party - Wikipedia}}</ref> and when the [[Russia]]n Government launched their [[Wikipedia: 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine|war]] on Ukraine. Chris shares his birthday with [[Apple|Steve Jobs]].

==Notable birthdays==
===1999, 17th birthday===
Chris received a Pro 200<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx4Zn5u4NQA| Commercial for the Pro 200 console.]</ref> handheld game console, and was photographed looking visibly disappointed while holding it. Interestingly, it's one of the few times where he would have been pretty justified in being so; given the console in question only had about fifteen simplistic games (in the advertising, they counted each difficulty level as an individual game), most of said games were ''Tetris'' rip-offs (and based around the same tall, thin playing field when they weren't), and it had a tiny, crappy monochrome screen and ear-grating sound. It's more than likely that [[Borb|his parents]] were suckered into buying it based on [[Chris and television|its TV advertisement making it look a lot better than it was]], and infamously promising that they would "never have to buy expensive cartridges again" on top of the cheap price for doing so. We all know [[List of Chris's video games|how well ''that'' worked out]].

He also drew "[[:File:086-BionicFlag.jpg|Bionic Over Autism]]", which would later be included in [[Sonichu 6|''Sonichu'' #6]], and created [[Espanolic]], which would later be seen on his [[Christian's Favorite Hits!|CD cover project]] for school.

===2000, 18th birthday===
[[Image:0481-CWC18th12.jpg|thumb|Chris's best birthday EVER!]]
While [[Trolls|most people]] would've celebrated by partying hard, doing [[Sex|something special]], or just acknowledging that they have grown into legal adults, Chris instead got a [[Video games|Sega Dreamcast]]. While he did have something of a party, it was very much the kind thrown for small children, composed of thrown-together decor, last-minute gifts, and some [[Friend zone|platonic]] [[gal-pals]] as guests. No [[Mia Hamm|strip club]]s, no [[Alcohol|booze]], no [[tobacky]], just ''Kenan & Kel'' and cake. Interestingly, this was allegedly Chris's best birthday ever.

Speaking of ''Kenan & Kel'', it is worth mentioning that its parent series ''All That'' featured a ''Vital Information for Your Everyday Life'' sketch that had some very, very eerie foreshadowing:

{{Quote|If you're a girl and your bra is too tight, you're uncomfortable. If you're a ''boy'' and [[Muscle bra|your bra]] is too tight, I'M uncomfortable.|Lori Beth Denberg}}

The great importance of this event apparently warranted recording as a story, "[[My big 18th party]]".

Years later, when asked by [[Kacey]] what did he do with his high school friends, Chris could not recall meeting them outside of school at any instance other than his 18th birthday.<ref>[[Kacey Call 20]]</ref> Likewise, a former Manchester High alumna who attended this birthday cannot recall any other instance in which she and the rest of Chris's high school friends ever hung out with him outside of school.<ref name>[[October 2013 Facebook Posts#Reality Comes Knocking]]</ref> Chris has stated if he were to give advice to a younger version of himself, he would tell 18 year old Chris that the gal pals he was with were hired by Bob and that he deserves better friends than the gal pals.

===2003, 21st birthday===
[[Image:0603-CWC21Note.jpg|thumb|And now the worst...]]

If the above birthday was Chris's best, then this one was probably his worst. No friends, no new [[video games]], and no [[sweetheart]]. The only present Chris received was his professor kicking him out of his [[PVCC|college]] [[Chris and English|English]] class. All wasn't lost, however, as this event was the catalyst that began the [[Love Quest]], Chris's enduring search for someone that will [[Barbara Chandler|put up with his crying and pamper him for eternity]].

===2005, 23rd birthday===
Chris documented this birthday in an issue of ''[[Sonichu's News Dash#Chris's 23rd Birthday|Sonichu's News Dash]]''. It took place at the mall and was attended by his parents, as well as "a couple of his new-found gal-pals, who all already have Boyfriends, or are otherwise undatable, due to her religion". He was treated like a child, and loved every second of it.

The gal-pal who is "undatable, due to her religion" is most likely [[Anna McLerran|Anna]]. Chris has met her prior to his 23rd birthday,<ref>As can be inferred from the fact that [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer]] was published on 5 [[2005#February|February 2005]], prior to Chris's birthday.</ref> and he likewise describes Mormons like Anna as undatable.<ref>[[MySpace messages#Jalena]]</ref>

[[Image:0940-CWCsAppreaciation.JPG|thumb|Chris's 25th birthday and [[DVD]] launch party.]]

To celebrate this milestone, Chris recorded an [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE|IMPORTANT MESSAGE]], inspiring girls, boys, and dudes of all teenages with the many lessons he has learned from his quarter-century of experience.

===2008, 26th birthday===
It's unknown what Chris did for his birthday on 24 February [[2008]], although a week later [[Megan Schroeder|Megan]] wrote to him saying ''"Yeah that [[internet]] thing is getting very much out of hand and would like to ask if you could please take down or remove anything that has to do with me from any of your websites. I don't want to appear on those sites as well."'' A while later she discovered that Chris [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|drew and posted porn of her]]. Chaos ensued.

===2009, 27th birthday===
Chris's 27th birthday coincided with Fat Tuesday as well as the burial of his late [[Aunt Corrina]] in [[Chris's homes#Family in Red Oak|Red Oak]]. Undoubtedly, this cast a shadow on the festivities. In true Chris fashion, he bitched and complained about not being able to [[Obesity|stuff his greedy gullet full of pancakes]] at [[Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church|his church in Charlottesville]] instead of [[Chris and death|mourning]] the loss of his aunt. He would later go on to complain in [[Mumble 9]] about how Aunt Corrina ruined his special day by selfishly dying. He did receive some birthday money, which he used to fund his [[Ohio trip]] two days later.

===2010, 28th birthday===
Other than Chris's [[ego|obsessive desire]] to see his birthday made a holiday, not much is known about how he spent his 28th. What we do know is that he ingested a [[Semen|mysterious substance]] and was [[Magical Man Potion|visited]] by another [[Jerk|male]] guest. [[Alec Benson Leary]] also [[Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 9|called in and congratulated him]], being the all-around nice guy that he is. Chris [[Vivian Gee E-mails, 2010#Hey, Vivian — 11 February|had been saving $100]] to pay for a prostitute as a birthday present for himself, but he ultimately abandoned that idea after [[The Wallflower]] became his friend and he assumed he would be allowed to have sex with her for free.

===2011, 29th birthday===
The events were unknown due to his hiatus from the [[Internet]], but somewhere around this time is when Chris began to [[Tomgirl Pictures|embrace his feminine side]].

* '''''Sonichu'' Canon:''' Coincidentally (or not), the homo vaccine in [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]] is distributed into the world's water supply on this day.

===2012, 30th birthday===
[[File:30_year_old_virgin.png|thumb|A must-see!]]

Chris entered his fourth decade in [[2012]]. The [[28 October 2011]] crimes still cast a shadow. Being the affluent [[Sony]] fanboy that he is, Chris bought himself a [[PlayStation Vita]] and a copy of ''Asphalt Injection'' (a critically-panned racing title, and the worst-reviewed game in the ''Asphalt'' franchise).

Leaked [[Facebook statuses]] revealed that Chris was not looking forward to this birthday. On 30 January, he expressed his frustrations about soon becoming a 30-year-old virgin, and a little more than a week later Chris announced on 11 February that he had no plans for his birthday.

===2013, 31st birthday===
[[Trolling]] was on Chris's mind on this birthday: he watched the slasher film about trolls ''{{w|Smiley (2012 film)|Smiley}}'' two days before, and the day after his birthday he called out [[My Little Pony|Tara Strong]] for "promoting trolling".

===2014, 32nd birthday===
Chris and his mother were staying in their [[Rental House|temporary house]] while [[14 Branchland Court|his home]] was undergoing repairs after its [[Destruction Of Chris's House|fiery destruction]]. Chris was recovering from bronchitis. It was a quiet birthday. He worked on his [[LEGO]] [[high school]], watched the ''Back to the Future'' movies, and got some free ice cream at IHOP.<ref>[[Rebeckah Bentley E-mails#Birthday]]</ref>

===2015, 33rd birthday===
Chris took to [[Facebook]], asking for a "very much required" $300 Lego set, along with ''two'' $70 Bikini Bottom sets – because he wants to make use of one piece from each set. His given motive is that he "may reconsider [his] feelings upon the lot of you" (note that the condition is that he ''may'' reconsider his feelings – [[Chris and negotiation|it's not guaranteed]], but you'll have to send him $400 in Lego blocks to find out). Unsurprisingly, Chris did not receive the gifts he asked for.

===2016, 34th birthday===
After months of living on the profits from his overpriced art and excessive donations from remorseful trolls, much like the year before, Chris's 34th birthday ended up being marked by lavish demands on his part. [[2016|This year]], he made an "[[Chris and negotiation|offer]]" to his fanbase: if they sent him a [[PS4]] bundle of his choosing for his birthday, he would in turn give them a $500 discount on his wide selection of shit on [[Etsy]]. Whether Chris even ''has'' $500 worth of merchandise that anyone would want to buy, or whether they would receive their purchases in a timely manner, is an exercise left to the reader.

Needless to say, February 24 came and went, with no PS4 forthcoming. The following day, Chris caught some Christorians off-guard by revealing ([[Update: 2/25/16|in the most lulzy fashion]]) that he had seriously expected strangers on the internet to fork out hundreds of dollars for the birthday <s>boy</s> [[Tomgirl|girl]]. Not only that, but [[Weens|some]] had even chosen instead to taunt him by sending him unactivated gift cards and used lottery tickets. And what happened then? Well, in [[CWCville]] they say – that the Mayor's massive [[Chris and his Ego|ego]] shrank three sizes that day.

Chris eventually purchased his own PS4 when nobody took him up on his "generous offer", but nonetheless pretended that he'd received it as a gift from an employee of the company he bought it from, in an apparent attempt to troll the trolls and/or rewrite history so he can continue believing that he has a massive <s>[[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens (comics)|terrorist]] [[Chaotic Combo|organization]]</s> fanbase who love him and would do ''anything'' for him, even if it breaks the law. And sure enough, he's tried to use them for just that, inciting them to [[FIX SONIC'S ARMS IMMEDIATELY, SEGA!!!|commit acts of vandalism and even violence]].

Ultimately, many found it simultaneously funny and sad that Chris had to make up his own [[white knight]].

===2017, 35th birthday===
Turning 35 seemed to awaken a nostalgic mood in Chris; he [[A_browsing_around_an_ol%27_playground|visited an old playground]], talked about [[Bob Chandler|Bob]] and [[high school]], and looked up [[Megan Schroeder|Megan]] on Facebook in the preceding weeks. The day after, Facebook showed him a video of Facebook friends wishing him a happy birthday.<ref>[[February_2017_Facebook_Posts]]</ref>

===2018, 36th birthday===
Not much happened this year, only that Chris commented about Christian Love Day on his Twitter and Facebook.

===2019, 37th birthday===
Chris tweeted a picture of his cake and [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] sang "Happy Birthday" to him.

Chris requested on Twitter that one of his enablers buy him ''Pokémon Shield''. He later asked for "something well-crafted; magic/healing stones" or just cold, hard cash.<ref>[[February 2020 social media posts]]</ref>

On the day, he [[Tweeted]] a [[Spanish]] birthday message and an image of him and orbiters forming a heart:

===2021, 39th birthday===
Chris, [[Spirit possession|role-playing]] as Sonichu, made a simultaneous [[February 2021 social media posts#Chris's birthday and Sonic World|post]] on Twitter and Instagram wishing himself a happy birthday. He also shared some gameplay of his Sonichu mod for [[Sonic World]].

===2022, 40th birthday===
Chris entered his middle ages in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] as he spent his first birthday away from home, continuing to await legal proceedings for his [[Affair with Mother|incest]] charge.

===2023, 41st birthday===
Chris spent a second birthday in jail; it is not known if he was able to observe it in any way. A month later, he would be [[Jail_Saga#Bonded_out_or_Released_by_court_order|released]].

===2024, 42nd birthday===
Chris celebrated his first birthday since being released from jail. He also spent some of the day outside playing [[Pokémon GO]].<ref>[[Sightings (2024)#Liberty University]]</ref>

=="Christian Love Day"==
{{main|Christian Love Day}}
[[File:Christian Love Day Declaration.jpg|thumb|The Christian Love Day Declaration (which is totally TRUE and HONEST, and not a [[things Chris has ripped off|rip-off]] at all).]]
Many people see their birthday as a day of personal relevance. Chris, on the other hand, thinks everyone across the globe should be [[Chris and his ego|focused on him too]]. First seen in the [[CWC Blog]], "Christian Love Day" is apparently a second Valentine's Day, but celebrated exclusively by STRAIGHT folk. In the [[Mailbag]], he clarified he "feels like" it should be a nationally recognized holiday, merely because [[Chris and reality|he wills it]] and it's also Mexican Flag Day. However, Chris provides no details on how to celebrate, nor does he put any effort into garnering publicity beyond [[Christian Love Day (video)|one lone video]].

In [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']], the holiday gains slightly more credence, along with some disturbing moral stipulations. It is on this day that the homo vaccine "cures" the homosexual population of the Earth, driving the [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]] up to critical levels. It seems to be that this fictional event is the real reason Chris wants to commemorate his birthday as a holiday (well, that and [[Chris and his Ego|ego]]). Chris either thinks his comic is so widely known that the date of its denouement would be nationally recognized, or he [[Chris and reality|has a skewed perception of the lines between fiction and reality]].

Son-Chu

2025-12-01T15:41:09Z

[[File:Chrischanscar.jpg|thumb|When you see it, you'll ZAP TO THE EXTREME!]]
{{Quote|Son-Chu would keep Chris safeguarded on his trips to Charlottesville and back or on other road trips from time to time before when Chris was able to transform into his Sonichu form and run at mach speeds, personally. |[[CWC Blog (Cwclight)|Chris in 2025]]}}
'''Son-Chu''' is the name [[Chris]] has given to his cars. Chris has driven several cars over the years, all bearing vanity plates reading "[[sonichu|SONICHU]]" (or, most recently "SONCIHU"). Son-Chu's most well-known incarnation was a [[1994]] [[Wikipedia:Ford Escort (North America)|Ford Escort]] [[Wikipedia:Station wagon|station wagon]] that Chris drove until 2013, when he replaced it with a white [[wikipedia:Cadillac Seville|Cadillac Seville]], until it died from a cracked engine block. From [[September 2014]] to [[November 2018]], Chris drove a [[wikipedia:Ford Focus|2010 Ford Focus sedan]], until its engine died. The Chandlers subsequently shared one vehicle: [[Barb]]'s Dodge Grand Caravan, although Chris transferred the SONICHU plates onto it, thus making it the fourth and final incarnation of Son-Chu, until his [[Jail Saga#Arrest|arrest]] for [[Affair with Mother|incest]] and a thief stealing the unattended vehicle's plates, at which point the plates have been replaced and the van is now Barb's alone. The van was totaled in [[November 2021]] following a T-bone collision which left Barb injured with broken ribs and a concussion.<ref name=27nov>[[Jail Letter - 27 November 2021]]</ref>

It is not known when Chris got his driver's license. The earliest he could have gotten it was 24 February [[1998]], his sixteenth birthday. However, in [[A Week With Christian Chandler]], completed in May [[2000]], Chris documents himself riding home from school on the (short) bus, suggesting that he still had not learned to drive. At the latest, Chris would have needed to obtain a license by fall [[2000]] in order to drive himself to [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]]. In the [[Talk:Jessie Ruddy|Jessie Ruddy chatlogs]], which are of uncertain authenticity, Chris claims that he got his license at 18.

While Chris, to put it mildly, obviously suffers from multiple "disconcerting" issues which are listed [[Chris and...|elsewhere]] in this very wiki, the [[Wikipedia:Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles|Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles]] has nevertheless given him full permission to drive a motor vehicle which has been used to accidentally [[CWC's_Diary#June_2005|cause]] [[28_October_2011|personal injury]]. The DMV has yet to release an apology for this grievous lapse in judgment by their Ruckersville department.

==Name backstory==
[[File:License.jpg|thumb|Much like James Bond, Chris also has a [[6 June 2010|license to kill]] (though through his ineptitude in operating a one-ton mobile weapon).]]

Since Chris is a huge fan of ''[[Transformers]]'', he pretends that his car is a Transformer named Son-Chu, "Proud Autobot Leader of the Cwcville, Virginia, Autobot Squad; he is also is my Cool [[Obesity|Sportin']], [[Carlos Chantor|Escortin' Car]]".<ref>{{CWCipedia link|Son-Chu|Son-Chu}}</ref> From the [[CWCipedia]]:

{{quotebox|My Car is the Quick-Footed, well-armored '94 Escort; his name is Son-Chu. Dark Blue as Vehicle; he holds BatteryBlue/Yellow Combination Colors and Strong Personality under his hood. He has his Plasma Pistol/Energon Sword and Roof-Shield, and when [[Transformers|Decepti-Clones]] attack, he is the First to Show up to the Party and leading the [[Cwcville]] Autobot Defense Squad. When I'm not in the driver's seat, and he has to make his way to the fight, he projects my image in the Driver's Seat for the sake of his disguise.

Transformation Details: His Roof comes off his vehicle mode to make his Shield. His hood pops off to transform into his Plasma Pistol/Energon Sword.

**Stay Tuned to watch his Transformation in a few days.}}

The reason why the car is named "Son-Chu" remains unknown; it could be a reference to Full-Tilt<ref>transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Full-Tilt</ref> and/or Wipe-Out,<ref>transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Wipe-Out</ref> both Transformers with hyphenated names that turn into cars.

==Iterations of Son-Chu==
===Chevrolet Impala===
In the [[December 2023 livestreams]], Chris said that "around [[2000]] Son-Chu had taken the form of a Chevrolet imp in blue." In 2025, Chris confirmed that Son-Chu's first form was a blue [[Wikipedia:Chevrolet_Impala#Seventh_generation_(Impala_SS,_1994–1996)|Chevy Impala]], presumably the 1994–96 Impala SS model.<ref>[[CWC Blog (Cwclight)]]</ref>

===Ford Escort===
[[File:0654-CWCsCar.JPG|thumb|250px|Second Son-Chu.]]
A second-generation [[Wikipedia:Ford_Escort_(North_America)#Second_generation_(1991–1996)|Ford Escort LX]] (manufactured between 1991 and 1996), it was the former car of and a hand-me-down from his mother [[Barb]].<ref name="Mumble 10">[[Mumble 10#Summary|Mumble 10]]</ref>

[[File:126473378631.JPG|thumb|right|Artist's depiction of Chris racing in the virgin-mobile.]]

Members of the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens (message board)|PVCC]] believed that the fact that Chris drove a Ford Escort may be a universal symbol of romantic fail. Chris did not save up his [[tugboat]] for a vehicle, deciding he had more [[PSN|important]] [[Sex toys|things]] to spend his [[money]] on, despite the fact that sometimes a nice car can lead to getting [[china]] to [[PS3 Hump|screw]].

Unsurprisingly, Chris's mother paid for his gas.<ref name="Mumble 10"/>

[[File:Oil Change due 4-5-09.jpg|thumb|left|Chris's absurdly overdue oil change.]]

Possibly the best look we got at Son-Chu's condition was in the [[DayOut]] videos. Every time the car is stopped at a traffic light or parked somewhere, the engine rattles loudly; while a vibration at idle is a known design flaw with that year of Ford Escort, it is very possible that the motor mounts are shot (another common problem on that year of Escort), and since Chris spends all his money on [[:Category:Things bought with taxpayer money|junk]], replacing his motor mounts would put him over budget. A [[Wikipedia:Pennzoil|Pennzoil]] sticker on the windshield states that the next recommended oil change was to take place on 5 [[April 2009]], over a year before the video was recorded; we also learn the virgin-mobile had at least 260,000 miles on it.

===Cadillac Seville===
[[File:IMG_5312.JPG|thumb|250px|Chris's second Son-Chu, a Cadillac Seville, seen outside the still fire-ravaged [[14 Branchland Court]].]]

According to a [[Facebook statuses|Facebook status]] from [[February 2012]], Chris no longer owned, or at least no longer drove that particular Son-Chu. Why Chris bought another car and Escort Son-Chu's fate is unclear. However, said Facebook status suggests that he may have bought another car to avoid detection by [[jerkop]]s. Considering how many miles the Escort had on it and how poorly Chris maintained it, there's a very high likelihood it was simply no longer drivable and needed too much work to be roadworthy again - that, or Chris, as inept as he is, simply couldn't figure out how to get it repaired or have someone fix it for him. Chris likely got rid of that Son-Chu sometime before fall [[2011]], as according to a leaked email, Chris was driving Barb's [[Wikipedia:Ford Aerostar|Ford Aerostar]] during the infamous GaMe PLaCe incident in October of that year. The car was photographed by Google Maps in [[June 2011]], at which time was still owned by Chris, being its last public sighting. In [[September 2013]], it was discovered that Son-Chu's "Sonichu" vanity plates had been transferred to a white [[Wikipedia:Cadillac_Seville#Fourth_generation_(1992–1997)|1992–97 Cadillac Seville]], which Chris posted several pictures of himself driving since [[2012]]. At the same time, Son-Chu was not spotted in the yard of [[14 Branchland Court]], confirming that it is no longer in the Chandlers' possession. The rear bumper and trunk of the Seville had two hastily-pasted on stickers, with the first being another Christian Fish, and the second being an unreadable bumper sticker partially hidden by the closed trunk door.

In [[September 2014]], Chris listed the Cadillac Seville on [[Craigslist]], also noting that he and his family "invested thousands of dollars in not only a new CD Player/Radio, but Multiple repairs at a Cadillac dealership. But while it did run very well for a long time, a mechanic messed up on repairing it. Now it has a cracked engine block and requires a new battery and fresh gasoline." Cracked engine blocks were actually a fairly common issue with this generation of Cadillacs due to the [[Wikipedia:Northstar engine series#Head gasket issues|Northstar V8 engine]] having major design flaws, meaning the damage was most likely not caused by Chandler neglect, nor the fault of a mechanic as Chris claims.
[[File:SevilleFinalState.jpeg|thumb|250px|The Seville before being scrapped.]]
The Chandlers did eventually sell the Seville for an unknown amount to another buyer in [[December 2014|December of 2014]]. The block damage was repaired and the vehicle was driven for another 2 years and 20,000 miles before being written off in an accident, sustaining significant damage to the front right quarter. After that, it was sent to the auto auction website Copart (As pictured), eventually being sold to a scrapper in Richmond for $150 in [[December 2016|December of 2016]]. The vehicle was allegedly still able to move under its own power, though the aftermarket CD player Chris purchased was missing.<ref>https://archive.ph/DUF89/</ref>

===Ford Focus===
[[File:SonChu_at_Too_Many_Games.jpg|thumb|250px|A [[fan]] poses with Son-Chu at [[Too Many Games]], 22 [[June 2018]]. Note the extremely poor bay parking, which would be marked down as a fault on a practical driving test.]]
{{Quote|And for those of you who simply MUST KNOW: the new vehicle idea was my mother's; she wanted a new van originally, but I really liked the Focus.|Chris<ref>[[September_2014_Facebook_Posts]]</ref>}}

On 24 [[September 2014]], Chris had purchased a used [[Wikipedia:Ford Focus (second generation, North America)|second generation Ford Focus]] (a 2010 4-door sedan SE) implying that the Cadillac Seville may have been sold. Chris paid $9,000 for the Focus, paying over $100 a month.<ref>[[Catherine]]</ref>

This leads one to wonder how Chris was ever able to afford any new cars at all, let alone two of them; when he has now subjected to begging for donations and/or Legos on Facebook, let alone Barb's dental operation.

In [[July 2018]], Chris recorded [[My Car is Heating Up Worse; PLEASE BUY from my eBay and HELP!]] Although [[fans]] gave him enough money to get it repaired, it merely prolonged the inevitable. In [[November 2018]], [[The Captain]] reported that the car's engine was permanently broken:

{{quote|The day before [[Chandler Cats#Patches|Patches]] died the engine in the Focus crapped out. Something in the range of 4k to fix so he's sending it to auction hoping his fame will bring about more money than what it's worth (scrap) to pay off the rest is the loan.}}

The car only had about 110,000 miles on it or so when it was sold off. Considering Chris's history of automotive maintenance (particularly his year-overdue oil change for Son-Chu The First), plus Bob no longer being around to do it for him, it's more than likely that the engine damage resulted from simply being neglected.

The car was sold at auction over the winter and repaired. In [[May 2019]], the Focus was purchased by D&D Motors in Maryland, a used-car dealership, where it was eventually sold in [[July 2019|July]] of that year to someone who would probably treat it better. The car is still on the road to this day, beating the odds and surviving Chandler ownership.<ref>[http://archive.ph/akZTA Car listing]</ref> Chris never bought anything to replace it and instead started driving Barb's minivan during the winter of 2018-2019.

===Barb's Dodge Caravan===
[[File:14 BC in 2017 2.jpg|thumb|150px|Chris's Ford Focus and Barb's Dodge Caravan in a photo from June 2017.]]

Barb owned a [[2002]] [[Wikipedia:Chrysler minivans (RS)|Dodge Grand Caravan]], which had the license plate "B WESTON".<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20220525060721/https://findbyplate.com/US/VA/BWESTON/ info]</ref> She was seen behind the wheel in [[WE NEED MONEY FOR MORTGAGE NOW, PLEASE!]]. Chris apparently borrowed the car on occasion, possibly for grocery runs.<ref>https://archive.is/2ohFq</ref>

Chris borrowed the car to drive to [[BronyCon]] due to Son-Chu being under repair. While on his way home from the con (held in Baltimore, Maryland), the car broke down at a [[Sheetz]] gas station in Bealeton, VA, prompting Chris to beg online for donations to cover a tow bill and record [[Waiting for the tow truck]].

[[File:Sonichu van.png|thumb|left|150px|The Dodge Caravan with Sonichu plates as seen in [[Sonichu Headquarters Google Intro Video|Chris's Google Intro video.]]]]
After the death of Chris's Focus in [[November 2018]], the van became the primary vehicle of both Chris and Barb. Most likely this was a result of both Barb driving less as she enters the geriatric stage and Chris opting to spend his tugboat on [[Lego|more]] [[List of Chris's video games|pressing]] [[McDonald's|matters]] instead of obtaining a newer, more reliable car.
[[File:Son-Chu_at_courthouse,_19_June_2019.jpg|thumb|right|150px|The back of the Dodge Caravan as of Chris's [[Debt hearing (eyewitness account)|June 2019 debt hearing]].]]
Chris replaced the Dodge's B WESTON plate with a Sonichu one, cementing it as the fourth iteration of Son-Chu. The car with its new plate is visible in the background of a Pokemon Go photo Chris took in [[April 2019]].

In [[August 2019]], the day after Chris's 280-mile trip to [[BronyCon]], the car suffered a mechanical issue. Chris stated:<ref name=aug2019car>[[August 2019 social media posts#Chris caused a fender-bender and kicked a cop car; discovers he's blacklisted from Papa Johns]]</ref>

{{quotebox|after starting the van, I’m whammed in the face with a sulfuric Odor. Ugh! [[Sylvana]] and I confirmed that there is now something wrong with the Air Conditioner, so we will have it checked at the local auto repair soon.}}

A sulfuric odor could indicate a broken [[Wikipedia:catalytic converter|catalytic converter]] or fuel pressure sensor; this would have cost hundreds of dollars to fix/replace and contribute further to the [[Financhu Crisis]].
[[File:AutoRepairPapers.jpg|thumb|left|100px|The bill for the exhaust/brake repairs.]]
The following month, Barb took the van in for maintenance on a turn signal bulb and was informed that the exhaust and brake system would need to be replaced, costing around $1,000. Chris took to Twitter to beg for the money.<ref>[[September 2019 social media posts#Van's in bad shape]]</ref>

On 28 [[March 2021]], Chris damaged the van, denting its trunk door and smashing its rear windshield, by backing up into a big rig trailer. He and Barb took it to a body shop to have the trunk door replaced.<ref name=march21fb>[[Misc texts#March 2021 fender bender]]</ref>

Chris planned to drive the van to attend the [[August 2021]] [[Everfree Northwest]] convention in Seattle, WA, which would have been a 41-hour drive crossing mountainous terrain. However, [[Null]] vetoed the plan out of safety concerns and arranged for a flight instead.<ref>[[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW]]</ref> However, the [[Incest call]] completely derailed these plans and the trip was cancelled. Instead, Chris took his car to a hotel in Richmond, where he parked it in a spot where he could wait out a few nights before he could return to [[14 Branchland Court|his home]]. Chris was arrested on 1 [[August 2021]], leaving the car unattended. Sometime between then and 3 [[August 2021]], a [[4-cent_garbage|4channer]] stole the vanity license plates off of the vehicle.

The van was returned to the Chandler Household around, or exactly on 29 [[August 2021]], this time with Barb's plates put back onto it.

On 23 [[November 2021]], Barb, not having her son to drive her anywhere, experienced a traffic accident with a tractor-trailer. The van got T-boned on its left side, with the airbags not deployed, resulting in Barb breaking two of her ribs and getting a concussion.<ref name=27nov></ref> The van was totaled and Barb was charged with Fail to Yield Right-of-Way for the incident and paid a $30 fine and $76 in court costs.

===Chevrolet Aveo===
Following the [[Jail Saga]], on 25 [[August 2023]], Chris was spotted driving a [[2006]] [[Wikipedia:Chevrolet_Aveo_(T200)#T250|Chevrolet Aveo (T250)]]. Records showed that the vehicle was purchased on 19 [[May 2023]] for $3,500.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#Soncihu License Plate]]</ref>

According to Carfax, the Aveo, as of 3 [[August 2023]], has 138,482 miles, and in typical Chris fashion, is overdue for an oil change.<ref>[[:File:Chevrolet_Aveo_Mileage.png]]</ref>
[[File:IMG 8573.jpg|thumb|150px]]
[[Naïve|Instead of reporting his SONICHU license plate as stolen]], Chris opted for a brand new plate with the misspelling SONCIHU. The license plate also has a specialty design promoting the Friends of the Blue Ridge nonprofit, with a blue and gold color scheme reminiscent of [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] himself.

On 4 [[September 2023]], the Aveo was sighted at [[14 Branchland Court]].<ref>[[Post-jail_sightings_(2023)#14_Branchland_Court]]</ref> On 19 [[September 2023|September]], the Aveo was spotted at an unspecified parking lot and photographed. The photo shows Chris had duct-taped something to his dash, and also that the paint on the hood was peeling in large amounts.<ref>[[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Unspecified parking lot]]</ref>

Chris's car has been sighted at a [[Big Island]] house which is co-owned by [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC. It was first observed there by a Google Streetview camera in [[October 2023]] which captured an image of the car parked with a tarp over it (but with a wheel visible). Subsequently, in [[November 2023|November]], a Discord user photographed a clear image of the car - showing the license plates were covered while parked at the home. In [[May 2024]], a [[Reddit]] user would take photographs of the car at the home showing that the license plates were no longer covered.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichuSFW/comments/1cvu4zt/chris_chan_car_sighting/ ([https://archive.ph/gFAVz archive])</ref>

==Handicap parking permit==
Being [[Autism|autistic]], Chris has also been granted a handicap parking permit, clearly visible in the photographs of the car.

Chris should be thanking his lucky stars that he lives in one of only two states (the other being New York) in which you can get a disabled permit for being autistic. A quick [https://archive.is/ux8X9 Google search] on the topic reveals that these permits are intended for the benefit of parents of severely autistic children who are at risk of, for example, bolting into traffic or [[26 December 2014|having meltdowns in public]]. In Virginia, a doctor must sign off on the application for the original permit, but not on subsequent renewals.<ref>[https://archive.is/ZKGTF Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles]</ref><ref>[https://archive.is/0zzHr Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles]</ref> Given this, it's likely that Barb applied for it when Chris was a child, and the family has kept the permit so long because their fat, lazy asses can't be bothered to walk more than a few yards. Obviously, every second Chris leaves Son-Chu parked in a handicapped space so that he can loiter inside a business establishment is a second someone who actually can't walk more than a few yards can't park there to actually conduct business, not that Chris notices or cares.

==Dashboard==
[[File:Pace car.jpeg|thumb]]

In [[2017]], Chris had a [[Skylanders avatar]] of himself mounted on the dashboard. The figure, designed in-game by Chris and meant to resemble his [[Tomgirl]] persona, was 3D-printed by the Skylanders company and cost him $50.

[[File:Cwchomersimpson.jpg|thumb|left|Homer, awaiting his ill gotten fate.]]
A [[The Simpsons|Homer Simpson]] figurine used to reside on Chris's dashboard. There also appeared to be a Sonichu-related item, possibly a paper cutout stuck to an air freshener ([[Chris and health#Hygiene|to mask the hobo stank]]), hanging from his rear-view mirror.

Interesting to note is that [https://archive.is/RqZjB Virginia law prohibits the suspension of distracting or view-obstructing objects from the rear-view mirror of a car], a fact which most Virginia driver's-ed programs make very clear, but with Chris's high-functioning life, he probably fell asleep during this part of the class.

==Vanity plate==
{{quote|I’ve had a few license plates stolen from my car over the years, and had to buy new ones.|Chris<ref>[[2018 Sales Listings]]</ref>}}

[[File:0655-CWCsSonichuLicense.JPG|thumb|200px|The vanity plate, IRL (notice the [[autism]] and [[The GAMe PLACe]] bumper stickers, along with a [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|PVCC]] license plate frame).]]
[[File:VanityPlateComic.jpg|thumb|200px|The vanity plate, as seen from the [[Sonichu (comic)|comic]].]]
[[File:The Chris Chan Conspiracy - Framed Son-Chu License Plate.png|thumb|200px|Another vanity plate seen in a frame at 14 Branchland Court in footage shown in the second episode of ''[[The Chris Chan Conspiracy]]''.]]
[[File:4channer_steals_plate.png|thumb|200px|A vanity plate thief shows off the stolen plate on [[4chan]].]]

The [[Wikipedia:Vanity plate|vanity plate]] read "[[Sonichu (character)|SONICHU]]", thus ensuring no back-seat poontang for Chris. '''Ever'''. This habit of having a vanity plate stems from family. [[Bob Chandler|Bob]] had a vanity plate reading "UN4EVR" (apparently a statement of support for the [[Wikipedia:United Nations|United Nations]])<ref>[[Get in touch with Bobby C]]</ref> and another reading "I B MR C" ("I be Mr. C", as in [[IBAChandler|I be Mr. Chandler]]).<ref>[[CWC Update 29 July 2009]]</ref> Barb has or had a vanity plate reading "B WESTON" (as in Barbara Weston).<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#B Weston License Plate]]</ref> It is worth noting that Virginia has the highest vanity plate registration rate of any U.S. state (16.2% of all eligible vehicles as of 2007), so Chris's family may simply be following a cultural norm.<ref>[[Wikipedia:Vanity_plate#North_America]]</ref>

Chris's plate was fashionably overlaid with a "[[Piedmont Virginia Community College|PIEDMONT VA CC]]" frame.

The SONICHU plate was a favorite target for thieves. One such theft occurred to the Dodge Caravan after Chris was arrested for incest on 1 August 2021, which resulted in the van being unattended at a motel parking lot.

About a day after Chris's arrest, a once anonymous troll going by the alias Airsoft Al, left a sticky note on his car and stole his license plate. Not too long after he posted about it on 4chan. An autistic user named Airsoft Al was framed for it by '''Chase Lopez''' of being Abstract Airsoft.

Following the [[Jail Saga]], with the introduction of the Chevrolet Aveo, a new iteration of the SONICHU plate was created, this time bearing the name "SONCIHU".<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (other users)#Soncihu License Plate]]</ref>

==Bumper stickers==
The Ford Escort featured a number of ancient and faded [[Wikipedia:Bumper sticker|bumper stickers]]. Odds are they were applied when he first received the car, and have been rotting on the bumper ever since. Bumper stickers have long been regarded as a means to relay one's ill-informed world views, and prominently display meaningless platitudes for the public view. Chris's choice in stickers is a prime example of typical bumper sticker fare.

From left to right:

* [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] window static - A nearly invisible, transparent overlay in the back window of Chris's car. Most of the text is too faded to decipher, but it contains the URL for [[CWC's Sonichu Site!|the old Tripod website]], what appears to be a faded drawing of the disembodied heads of both [[Sonic]] and Sonichu, and a very faint rendering of the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' title text. They seem similar to the [[:File:197-cwcsonstecrd.jpg|ads in]] [[:File:163-cwcsonstecrdver2.jpg|the scrapbook]], but the logo is on the other side and the URL is bigger.
* [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] - A round red sticker. The remnants of Chris's ill-fated and ultimately useless attendance of the local community college.
* Plan 9 Music<ref>[https://archive.is/ECj6V]</ref> - A bumper sticker for a local [[Chris and music|record shop]] where Chris probably buys his [[Britney Spears]] CDs.
* An [[America]]n flag - Incredibly faded and neglected. Text underneath the flag reads "United We Stand". Probably added in [[2001]], during a [[Twin Falling Towers|frenzy of patriotism]].
* "[[Autism]]. Work For A Cure." - As always, Chris feels the need to advertise his disability to the world.
* "[[Pedofork|Come Play With Me!]]" - One of the most disturbing things Chris has put on his car. It is an advertisement for [[The GAMe PLACe]] in [[Chris_and_writing#Exposition|Comic Sans]]. We are sure that they [[Michael Snyder is ColdHearted and Mean|appreciate]] his endorsement.
* ???? - There are the completely faded and torn remnants of a sticker located on the center of Chris's bumper. It is unknown what resided there.

As of 25 [[October 2010]], it appeared that Chris rearranged his sticker collection, seen in [[DayOut]]. The Plan 9 Music sticker remained in the same place; however, the American flag had been removed and replaced with a [[Wikipedia:Ichthys|Jesus fish]], a common symbol for identifying oneself as a [[Chris and Religion|Christian]]. "Come Play With Me!" had been replaced with a "Save [[McIntire Park]]" sticker, likely for obvious reasons. Since this was the first time we'd seen Son-Chu for quite a while, it was impossible to determine when either of these changes were made.

[[File:Son-Chu_at_Walmart,_2_June_'17.jpeg|thumb|right|Last image of the Ford Son-Chu, showing its bumper stickers. Note that Chris is indeed parked in a [[Slow-in-the-minds|handicap]] space.]]

In [[2016]], an accidental field agent took the first known picture of Chris's Focus, showing that it had indeed been fitted with the "Sonichu" vanity plates, and a set of new bumper stickers. A later image from [[June 2017]], taken in a [[Mal-Wart|Wal-Mart]] parking lot, shows that Chris subsequently added several more stickers, largely centered on asserting his current gender identity. Besides these, the Ford Son-Chu was notably heavy on [[Chris and brand loyalty|promotions for businesses and charities]]. From left to right, the current set of bumper stickers is:

[[File:Sonchufocus-rear.jpg|thumb|right|The virgin mobile with the stickers peeled off]]

* Atlas Comics<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100110134110/http://www.atlascomicbooks.com/]</ref> - A barebones text advertisement for a now-defunct local comic book store which Chris presumably patronizes (he mentioned the store in the [[DayOut]] videos, but has never talked about it otherwise).
* Brown<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100106062022/http://www.brownautos.com/]</ref> - The logo of the Brown Auto Group, where either Chris or Barb bought the car. The sticker was almost certainly applied at the dealership, rather than by Chris.
* Pride Flag - A oval-shaped sticker of a [[Tomgirl|transgender]] pride flag.
* SPCA - Evidently, Chris is a devoted supporter of the SPCA, as seen by the sticker with the paw mark inside of the blue hand print. This is surprising as Chris is unable to take care of himself, let alone another living being.
* Pinup Girl - A red outline of a reclining [[Women's Rights|pinup girl]]
* State Farm - The logo of the State Farm insurance company, suggesting that the car was at least at some point covered by insurance.
* Girls Kick Ass - The text "GIRLS KICK ASS", with [[Rainbow|rainbow-patterned]] stripes above and below.
* HRC - The logo of the Human Rights Campaign, an [[SLGBTQ|LGBT]] political advocacy group.
* WTJU<ref>[https://archive.is/w0ct5]</ref> - The logo of a variety music station operated from the [[University of Virginia]], where [[Bob]] once hosted a [[WTJU Marathon|jazz marathon]].
{{clear}}

==Distracted driving==
[[File:drivingtotheextreme.png|thumb|right|Driving to the extreme!]]
Chris has openly discussed fantasizing about his [[Dimensions|dimensional]] beliefs while behind the wheel.

While driving to the [[2019]] [[BronyCon]], Chris, "for an hour or two," had "felt and caught vision" of [[Reldnahc]]'s army trying to invade [[14 Branchland Court]]<ref>[[Sonichu 14]], pg 18</ref>. When a fan pointed out that Chris shouldn't have visions while driving, Chris replied<ref>https://archive.is/PKV6R</ref>:

{{quotebox|I could not help it; I have no control when it starts up, and if I tried to stop or quench it while in progress, I would get a Major Headache.}}

After BronyCon, according to Chris, [[Magi-Chan]] had to help him drive through temporary possession<ref>[[Sonichu 14]], pg 25]]</ref>.

In addition to his fantasies, Chris also plays video games while waiting at stoplights:

{{quoteboxgreen|One thing that did slightly concern me a bit was that on the ride back to the [[BronyCon|con]] center was Chris was hatching eggs on [[Pokemon Go]] on both phones on the center console while at stoplights.<ref>https://archive.is/tGNBz</ref>}}

===Collisions and near-misses===
Chris and Barb have wound up in several fender benders, usually of his own fault, on multiple occasions:

* On an unknown occasion (possibly the July 2005 crash), Chris claimed in a [[Mumble_2#Chris_Crashes_Due_To_Math|Mumble chat]] that he had an accident because his "mind got distracted by being its own calculator".
* On 22 [[June 2005]], during his encounter with the management of the Charlottesville [[Mal-Wart|Wal-Mart]], Chris "nearly backed up onto" the store's [[Manajerks|manager]] towards the end of their argument. Given the way Chris describes the event (and his general unreliability as a witness), it's hard to say whether the near miss was intentional or accidental.
* About a month later, on 25 [[July 2005]], Chris caused a minor fender-bender when he rear-ended a car he was following too closely. He was found to be at fault in the accident and ordered to pay $86 in fines and court costs.
* During his famous run-in with [[Michael Snyder]] on 4 [[June 2010]], Chris attempted to flee the parking lot of [[The GAMe PLACe]] in his car, but wound up boxed-in by Snyder and a couple of nearby police officers. Snyder claimed that Chris had intentionally tried to run him over with his car, an accusation that Chris loudly denied. Also likely is that Chris, due to his poor coordination skills and admitted intoxication, nearly ran him over by accident in a blind panic.
* During the [[28 October 2011]] incident, Chris and Barb attempted to escape the GAMe PLACe parking lot. While doing so, they hit Snyder twice with their car, resulting in unspecified injuries. Both Chris and Barb received a felony failure to stop charge as a result. During [[This is how the Trial went|their sentencing]], Chris was ordered to pay Snyder's medical bills from the incident.
* In [[September 2013]], Chris caused another fender-bender:
{{quotebox|God is giving me the Middle Finger yet again! I backed up and scratched a car in El Agave Lot! And she's a damn Smoker! Now the damn Jerkop is giving me a hard time, because I am screaming up at Freaking Emanuel God! I want God to just kill me Now if he is going to keep giving me middle fingers and a damned difficult life!!!<ref>[[September 2013 Facebook Posts]]</ref>}}
* In [[August 2019]], Chris backed up into a truck while he was "thinking about the next stop in [his] set of errands". He then left the scene and the Albemarle police tracked him down at his home for his insurance info.<ref name=aug2019car></ref>
* On 28 [[March 2021]], Chris backed up into a big rig trailer, causing a smashed rear window and dented door frame to his vehicle.<ref name=march21fb>[[Misc texts#March 2021 fender bender]]</ref>
* On 23 [[November 2021]], [[Barb]] failed to yield the right-of-way<ref>[[:File:Barbara Chandler Fail to Yield Right-of-Way charge.png]]</ref> in an accident with a tractor trailer, totaling her Dodge Caravan.<ref>[[Jail Letter - 27 November 2021]]</ref><ref>https://archive.is/VXneP/</ref>

{{-}}

==Other incidents==
* On 10 December [[2002]], Barb was pulled over in [[wikipedia:Louisa County, Virginia|Louisa County]] and charged with a defective right-side brake light. She ultimately paid $47.00 in court costs.<ref>[[:File:Barbchan2.PNG]]</ref>
* On 26 [[February 2009]], Chris locked himself out of his car during the [[Ohio trip]].
* In [[April 2019]], Chris lost his wallet at a gas station in [[wikipedia:Newport News, Virginia|Newport News, Virginia]] after placing it on top of his van, forgetting it, and driving away. The wallet was turned into the local police station where Chris retrieved it later that month.<ref>[[April 2019 social media posts#Chris Loses His Wallet]]</ref>

==Other cars==
===Barb's BMW===
[[File:Facebook 9 Oct B.jpg|thumb|Barb's Beemer]]
Barb formerly owned a 1999 [[Wikipedia:BMW Z3|BMW Z3]], a 5-speed manual 1.9-litre roadster in jet black. She bought the car in [[2009]]<ref>[[Mumble 1]]</ref> and tried to sell it in [[2014]], asking for 10 grand.<ref>[[December_2014_Facebook_Posts]]</ref>

===Barb's Aerostar===
[[File:Screenshot 46.png|left|thumb|Barb's Aerostar]]
Prior to the Grand Caravan, Barb drove a teal 1992 Ford Aerostar. It's only really notable for being Chris's vehicle of choice during the [[28 October 2011|GAMe PLACe incident.]] Other than that, it only appeared in the background of a handful of videos and photos before being replaced with the Grand Caravan sometime in 2012-2013. The fate of the van is currently unknown and it has most likely been scrapped, though this generation of Ford minivans were actually fairly reliable and it's not out of the question that the van is still on the road somewhere.

===The Mitsu===
[[File:The mitsu.png|thumb|One of very few images of the Mitsu.]] At some point one of the Chandlers, most likely Bob, purchased a silver 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage coupe. Chris apparently drove it from time to time to avoid detection from [[February_2012_Facebook_Posts#The_Wandering_Jerkop.2C_Part_4|Jerkops,]] and he commonly referred to it as the "Mitsu". Very little is known about the car and it's unclear what happened to it, though the Chandlers got rid of it sometime after Bob died. Barb apparently didn't like it as much as her van.

==In the comic==
Son-Chu appears as a minor character in the [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'']] comics as yet another companion for Chris, and another plagiarized element shoved into his fictional universe. He initially appears simply as Chris's mode of transport, first appearing at the end of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]], but in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]] transforms into an [[Autobot]] and helps fight against the [[PVCC]] invasion of CWCville. Then, in [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]], he appears once more to ludicrously transform into a stage for [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys|Chris's band]] to perform "[[Revive Zordon]]" and massacre the workers at the [[4-Cent Garbage]] building. Aesthetically, Son-Chu appears to resemble two characters from ''Transformers'' canon, [[wikipedia:Hotrod (Transformers)|Hotrod]] and [[wikipedia:Jazz (Transformers)|Jazz]].

[[File:Sonchu explain 3.jpeg|thumb|left|Chris quotes the [[CWCki]]]]
Chris read this article in March 2017 and explained how he had designed Son-Chu<ref>[[March 2017 Facebook Posts]].</ref>

{{quotebox|I've read what y'all thought were the inspiration Autobots behind Son-Chu: Jazz and Hot Rod? That is funny. Actually, when originally conceived in my noggin Years ago, I was binging on Transformers Animated during the time, and the only Autobot in mind that inspired the design was T.A. Bumblebee, in reference of how to make the breast part look like the hood while still having the original car hood in vehicle mode (albeit differing color). The remainder of the design actually came from Two past color Custom Autobot pages I designed and printed before then on Transformers.com. Jazz and Hot Rod were FAR away from my mind at the time.}}

==Toy Son-Chu==
[[File:Son-chu package.jpeg|thumb]]

Chris created a Son-Chu figure in [[March 2017]]. It appeared in [[Son-Chu Review]], a ''48-minute''-long video of him playing with toys.

Son-Chu's bio reads:

{{quotebox|The city of Cwcville, VA; defended greatly, between the team of Sonichus and Rosechus, the creator, Chrstine W. Chandler, and a group of five brave Autobots, led by Son-Chu; locally known as the Samurai Pizza Bots, as they work delivering pizzas (and Son-Chu driving Miss Chandler around) while in hiding until when needed. Not only the Decepticons, but transforming robots created by the team of Count Graduon as well, attack the city to try to take it over and break up all loving relationships worldwide. When the offensives are too big for the Sonichus and Rosechus to handle, Son-Chu and his group are there to blast the villains off!}}

It is made from pieces of three different Transformers - Breakaway, Sawback and Hot Rod - and was repainted, costing him over $40 to produce<ref>https://archive.is/IFJG4</ref>.

He offered to make two copies as a raffle prize to promote his [[stamps]] business.

====Past Ideas Reemerging Series====
[[File:PastIdeasReemergingImage1.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Magichan]] visits Son-Chu and team to share his wisdom.]]

Chris used the Son-Chu figure as a main character in his [[2024]] video series, [[Transformers - Past Ideas Reemerging]].

{{quotebox|Son-chu: "Thank you, Magichan... yeah... and ofcourse it be... among the sage-ness- the psychic ones that tend to want leave the most direct details and clues... overlooked for us to figure out for ourselves."}}

Chris humps his PS3

KennyOfHrub: /* Video */

{{Manipulation}}
{{Honest}}

[[Image:Vidya reaction to cwc.jpg|thumb|/v/'s reaction]]

{{Quote|I humped it for eight [[Obesity|sweating]] minutes, and I just gave you the song and dance [...] If I am NOT satisfied with FULL Return of my Accounts AFTER I WENT THROUGH ALL THAT MOTHERFUCKIN' [[Stress|TORMENT AND TORTURE]], it will be ON your head and In your [[Dreams|nightmares]].|Chris to [[Jack]]<ref>[[Jack Thaddeus E-mails Part 3]]</ref>}}

On 24 [[July 2009]], a video of [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]] '''humping his beloved [[PS3]]''' was leaked onto [[4-cent garbage]]'s /v/. In it, Chris makes love to his "Life Upgrade" for eight minutes, although he can only stay standing for the first minute. What might at first seem to be just an impressive display of fanboyism is actually a desperate plea for the return of his international [[PlayStation Network]] accounts, seemingly being held to ransom by the irrational expert hacker [[Jack Thaddeus]].

Chris himself sat in on an [[IRC (23 July 2009)|IRC chat]] where a coterie of [[trolls]] planned the making of the video, where he believed that he had effectively hidden his identity. Bits of Chris's monologue are simply repetitions of what he heard during the chat.

In his wisdom, Thaddeus never returned the PSN accounts to this day.

CWC More Than A Feeling

[[Image:CWCvsIanGuitar.jpg|thumb|KNOW THE DIFFERENCE]]

'''CWC More Than A Feeling''' is a video filmed in [[2008]] or early [[2009]] and uploaded on 29 [[July 2009|July]], depicting [[Solid Chris]] playing the Boston song "{{w|More Than a Feeling}}" in ''[[Guitar Hero]]''. In short, it's over 5 minutes of him just playing with his [[guitar]] and slapping on the whammy bar. Notably, Solid's goatee is not present, suggesting the video was filmed quite some time before being made public. A careful ear might also hear that the TV plays music when Solid himself is not strumming on the guitar, suggesting that he was playing on Hard difficulty instead of Expert; even then, he still misses a fair amount of notes, which begs the question of whether he ever intended this to be impressive to anyone.

[[File:ED-logo.png|thumb|350px]]

{{quote|Behold: The '''Mistake''' of God!|The header on Chris's Encyclopedia Dramatica page.}}

{{Quote|I will see to that website's demise, or my name isn't Christian Weston Chandler.|[[Transgender|Christine Weston Chandler]].<ref>[[Megan emails, 2008]]</ref>}}

'''Encyclopedia Dramatica''' (a.k.a. '''ED''', '''æ''' and [[Speech impediment|'''Ensykapeia Dramakka''']]) is a satirical wiki dedicated to showcasing what its users deem to be everything wrong with the internet, written in a style that demonstrates some of the very things that are wrong with the internet. The site is known for making use of shock value and featuring utterly scathing language used to mock the subjects of its articles.

ED was the home to the [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris-Chan]] page that introduced Chris to the world at large in [[2007]], following [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and {{w|Something Awful}}'s discovery of the lolcow, which made him a popular target for [[Trolls|trolling]]. Upon learning of ED, Chris began campaigning for the removal of the article for smearing his name, and particularly took offense to various pieces of "fan art" depicting [[Rosechu]] with a [[Pickle|penis]]. Naturally, this just led to the trolls adding more content to the page as he shared a series of written and recorded rants about the article.

In attempted retaliation for the page, Chris added [[Honest Content|lots of embarrassing personal information]] to their article on him, including [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|an infamous drawing]] depicting a sex act between himself and [[Megan Schroeder|a real-life friend]]. Instead of the "information overload" overwhelming the admins into taking the page down, like Chris believed it would, it gave a substantial amount of oxygen to the organized trolling effort while also destroying the aforementioned friendship. The sheer abundance of shenanigans with Chris eventually led to the creation of the [[CWCki]], since the ED page became too long and unwieldy for a single article, which has succeeded ED as the best resource for information on Chris's life.

==ED discovers Chris==
In late October 2007, Chris drew the attention of the folks in a forum at {{w|Something Awful}}, a comedy website. Shortly thereafter, the people at [[4chan]] also trained their lasers on Chris. Topics of discussion included his [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comic]], his [[CWC's Sonichu Site!|website]], and his [[MySpace]] page. [[Anna McLerran|Anna]]'s blog story, "[[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer]]", was also uncovered. The wealth of information and its lulzworthiness prompted the Anon, later identified as [[Jason Kendrick Howell]], to create the original Chris-chan page on Encyclopedia Dramatica, on 3 November 2007. Within two years, it underwent over 5,000 revisions and became arguably the most popular page on the site.<ref>[[Jason Kendrick Howell interview]]</ref>

==Chris discovers ED==
Almost immediately, Chris discovered his ED page, during what he called "the worst weekend of my life".<ref name="anna">[[Chris emails 2007#November]]</ref> He was horrified by the explicit fan art, which he would later call "Dark Parodic Shit".<ref>[[June 2012 Facebook posts#Dark parodic shit]]</ref> He was especially enraged by the inclusion of a recent photo of himself, surreptitiously taken at [[The GAMe PLACe]] by [[Daniel Mimms|Mimms]] and uploaded to 4chan by [[Lucas]].<ref>[[Mimms and Lucas Q&A]]</ref> "A hacking terrorist group, Anonymous, and 4Chan are somehow involved in that page as well", he intoned.<ref name="anna" />

Chris's initial response to this character assassination was civil. He uploaded a [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|video]] on 7 November, addressed to ED, politely requesting that the page be removed because it misinterpreted his noble and innocent person. Within a few days, however, he opted to take efforts to personally delete or [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|edit]] the page.

After a considerable amount of complaining, Chris posted this gem on the ED talk page:

{{quotebox|I AM ADDING THE [[Rule 34|POSITIVITY]] THIS HELL-HOLE OF A WEBSITE NEEDS; you just do not appreciate the POSITIVITY I AM ADDING TO THE PAGE. What I am doing is a STAND against OFFENSIVE, UNNATURAL, UNREQUIRED [[Pickle|Additions]] to ANY Female Image. What I am doing is a STAND for EVERY SINGLE WOMAN Everywhere, because NO WOMAN would EVER want such a Horrific Twist of Fate. What I am doing is a STAND against the VERY THING that is NOT FUNNY AT ALL!!!!!!!

So, Draw [[Plush Breasts|Breasts]], [[china|Vaginas]], Uterus, Ovaries and the God-Given Eggs within them, you [[Duck|Two-Inch Short]] [[Pickle|Dick-HEADS!!!!!!!!]]

Sincerely, Christian Weston Chandler, A Man For The Women, For the [[Women's Rights]], For the Women's Justice, For the Women's Peace.

P.S. [[Chris and hypocrisy|Grow a BACKBONE and GO ASK WOMEN OUT AS WELL, YOU TROLLS!]]}}

Chris then returned, admitting defeat after his failed attempts to take down the ED page:

{{quotebox|Months ago, I have found from this page being the first of a number hate against me, Christian Weston Chandler. *[[sigh]]* Among the number of you all, my name has been dragged through the mud, my e-mail and MySpace have been hacked for the e-mail information and random information that have been twisted into mockery of [[obesity|my person]], [[Chris and sex|my integrity]], [[List of Chris's lies|my honesty]], [[Ryan Cash|my compassion]], [[heart level|my heart]], [[Chris and religion|my soul]], [[autism|my being]]. Not only that, but the names of my two best gal-pals, [[Megan Schroeder]] and [[Anna McLerran]], and my Electric-Hedgehog Pokemon, [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]], have also been dragged through the mud of mockery along with mine. Not only were [[heart level|my feelings were hurt greatly]], but also those of [[Megan]] and [[Anna]], and a number of my acquaintances within my small social circle were shocked and terrified that such [[trolls|cruelty]], such [[pickle|mockery]], such [[homos|hatred]] was built from the number of those who have added more and more to this disgrace of a description of my [[autism|being]].

For a while, I was angry and enraged, and I shoved information and drawings regretfully drawn beyond my personal boundries down the throat of the webmasters of the page, in attempt to kill the hype and hatred against me. But No More, I give up on trying to edit the page to be more positive, or to delete the page altogether.

But I have ONE Question, that I put unto you all, the individuals who have taken part in creating this web page, and I would appreciate an Open, Detailed and Honest Answer from each of you in simple e-mails or reply on this discussion page.

[[CWCki:Frequently Asked Questions|Why do you hate me so much?]]

What did I do against you to cause the hatred against me? What physical or emotional harm have I ensued unto you? Why do you hate me for being myself in this world full of people who can't help but be themselves? I've had nothing against any of you. I don't even know any of you personally, as far as I know. I have nothing that any of you have already, so Why?

I leave you with that to ponder and ponder again over.

Sincerely;

Christian Weston Chandler.}}

Trying another angle, Chris also encouraged ED to muster as his personal army to go after [[Joshua Martinez]].<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20080227084345/http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php?title=Chris-chan&oldid=1997409947</ref> Obviously, nobody did what he asked. He also tried to create a page on ED for his "CCWC's Fanart of Horrors" (see: [[troll]] art), but a sysop immediately caught it and redirected it to an anti-Semitic template.

Chris's meddling with ED was a key reason for the destruction of his relationship with [[Megan]]. On 11 [[November 2007]], in an attempt to "shove so much information down their throats and drown them into taking the page down," Chris uploaded five pornographic drawings to his ED page, including the infamous [[ShecameforCWC.JPG]]. When Megan found out about the drawing in [[March 2008]] and realized she was a part of it, it was the final straw. Chris made more furious efforts to scrub the images from ED, but to no avail. Of course, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|blamed ED for all of this]].

By late summer [[2008]], Chris had largely given up on direct involvement with ED. Around the spring of [[2009]], he may have posted one or two comments on the ED talk page referring to [[Clyde Cash]]. The first is below. It was deleted fairly quickly.

{{quotebox|I have learned that there was a connection between her and a state in Washington where some of you have been lurking, and that she was not found in any public records. It took me a week to recover from the [[heart level|crestfallen emotions]], but I am moving on with my life.

Also, you'll have to catch me IRL ONLY to [[troll]] me any further. [[fangs|Do you dare?]]

Peace-Out, Christian Weston Chandler

--ChrisChanSonichu 22:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)}}

There was some dispute over it actually being Chris, until he himself confirmed it in the post that followed:

{{quotebox|Hey, [[Clyde Cash|CLYDE]], you JERK. I said "IN REAL LIFE", not [[PS3|Playstation]]. Also, why don't you be the man you CLAIM to be and face me yourself? You keep sending out your prawns to do your dirty work, you coward. >:-(

Christian C.}}

According to Clyde, the above entry was deleted after roughly a minute, probably due to Chris realizing that if he were to ever arrange to meet Clyde, he'd only send his parents anyway.

==Chris-Chan (forum)==

[[Image:Edfcwcusers.jpg|thumb|Your average Chris-chan following EDiot.]]

'''Chris-chan''' was a subforum of the [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] forums (commonly referred to as '''EDF'''). It was created such that the talk page for the Chris-chan article could be used for its rightful purpose to discuss improving the article.

Chris indicated in his 13 [[September 2009]] video that he had read the ED forums and had discovered a plan to photoshop images so they looked like they were from a Sonichu game.<ref>[[Chris dispels videogame rumors]]</ref> Chris firmly believed this forum to be the main hub for trolling activity, despite other forums and websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] at that time) having far more significance.

==Later developments==
{{quote|I do think it is a little behind [[CWCki|cwcwiki]] [sic] on a few things, though, but that is to be expected.|[[Jason Kendrick Howell]] on the ED article two years after its creation<ref>[[Jason Kendrick Howell interview]]</ref>}}
[[Image:Drycow.PNG|thumb|Uploaded 12 December 2008, before the new comic, [[Miyamoto]] saga, and [[BlueSpike]] saga]]

For several months before the events of the [[BlueSpike]] saga in early 2009, many thought that Chris had dried up, that Chris could go no further down the rabbit hole. The [[Blanca Weiss#FCTC|FCTC]]'s posting of new pics of Chris's bent [[duck]] in December 2008 prompted an ED admin to lock the talk page and demand satisfaction.<ref>"MINE: What this talkpage is. If you guys continue your faggotry after this protection expires today I will lock it down longer, and then eventually permanently."--Arguecat3, now former ED sysop, 4 December 2008.

"I say we just delete it. Along with the archives"--Zaiger, now former ED sysop, 5 December 2008.

"Fuck this article and it's talk page. Stupid discussions unrelated to upkeep and editing are the only thing keeping this shit interesting. You guys take this shit WAY to srsly. Find another retard to stalk fgts"--Zaiger, now former ED sysop, 10 December 2008.</ref>

Encyclopedia Dramatica’s coverage of Chris and ''Sonichu'' became a victim of its own success: despite having many sub-pages to reduce pressure on the main article, ED could not cope with the continued growth of interest in Chris, especially in the aftermath of the FCTC posts. ED also experienced problems with misinformation on Chris, occasionally removing false or exaggerated rumors such as the claim that Chris attempted to [[Chris and sex#Bestiality|molest]] [[Patti Chandler|Patti]], or that [[Ivy]] was just a [[Sex dolls|blow-up doll]].

On 25 [[January 2009]], five days after one of Chris’s [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|biggest revelations]], the [[CWCki]] came into existence: those interested in Chris’s antics quickly found the CWCki to be more accurate and less biased or exaggerated than ED, with TV Tropes once describing the CWCki to be "more accurate and slightly more SFW" than ED.

[[Image:Chris-chan ED April Fools' 2009.PNG|thumb|April Fool's article.]]
On April Fools' Day 2009, ED finally bent to Chris's will and removed all his personal information from the site, and replaced the article with an apology. Unsurprisingly, though, Chris's ED page was back up on April 2.

ED’s coverage of Chris continued to get updates until [[April 2011]], when ED relaunched as ''Oh Internet'': an attempt to raise the revenue required to stay online by removing controversial content that would deter advertisers. However, the move also reduced coverage of Chris to a single page, and left out much of the crucial content that defined Chris, such as [[CWCville]].<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20120731163509/http://ohinternet.com/Chris-chan Chris-chan] on ''Oh Internet''</ref>

In [[October 2013]], ''Oh Internet'' quietly went offline following internal disputes and divisions over the 2011 relaunch, and work began on rebuilding Encyclopedia Dramatica by scraping articles and images from archived websites: ED then struggled to stay online through numerous domains over the years. As of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, ED and their coverage of Chris and ''Sonichu'' barely cling on to life, with most of the information long superseded by [[CWCki|this very wiki]]. In a sense, Chris has sort of triumphed over ED by means of outlasting them in terms of overall relevancy, but at a great cost to himself and the people associated with him.

As for Chris himself, the ED page bothered him for years, and presumably still does, but he rarely mentions it anymore. An [[Chris chan (CWCipedia)|entire page]] of Chris's website, established in [[December 2009]], was dedicated to "correcting" the evil ED article with his own True and Honest take on the situation. Naturally, it was all about how Chris isn't remotely responsible for anything he has done wrong, and how it's all the fault of his [[autism]] or those DANG DIRTY TROLLS. However, Chris's worsening grasp on [[reality]], and changing priorities on [[CWC's Hallmark Negative Life Events|other enemies]], caused his rage against ED to decline to a point where he only made occasional references.<ref>[[July 2012 Facebook posts#E.D. is back up]]</ref>

Unsurprisingly, Chris has apparently never seriously contemplated the fact that his one-man crusade against ED was probably one of the biggest unforced errors of his life, and certainly one of the most defining. Had he simply ignored the page, he would likely have faded into relative obscurity as people moved on to the next attention-grabbing weird loser, much like what happened with countless other lolcows who have come and gone before and since. Instead, he fed the trolls by touching the poop, drawing more attention to himself and proving that trolling him would be guaranteed to get a reaction out of him. To say nothing about all the ammunition he gave them for free, along with revealing some of his most unsavory traits, which allowed many people to justify trolling him. The ED debacle shows that, at the end of the day, Chris is his own worst enemy.

'''Wesley "Wes" Iseli''' (pronounced [wɛs ˈaɪzli], "wess EYES-lee;"<ref>[[Mumble 4]], around 22 minutes in</ref> born 10 November 1977) [[Emily|briefly dated]] [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]], Chris's long-time [[gal pal|gal-pal]]. Wes is a magician in real life (available for birthdays, weddings, bar mitzvahs and funerals) and is currently married to another woman. According to Chris, Wes is also a descendent of the dark wizard.<ref name=merlindream></ref>

Although [[trolls]] have been trying to contact Wes ever since they found his various online accounts, he hasn't offered any official statements on [[Chris]] or his involvement in [[Sonichu (comic)|the Sonichu comics]]. Apparently, he doesn't feel the need to talk shit about some guy he barely knew just because he was jealous of Wes's relationship with an ex-girlfriend he dated over [[2000|20 years ago]].

== In real life ==
Wes Iseli was known to have dated Sarah Hammer at some point during Chris's [[Manchester High School|High School]] years. Chris claims to have originally been provoked into his [[Love Quest]] after becoming [[Chris and anger|enraged]] at seeing Sarah sitting on Wes's lap. Much like with [[Mary Lee Walsh]], this lead to a one sided blood feud with him, and he began to see Wes as a romantic rival and an enemy, even though Sarah saw Chris as nothing more than a friend and Wes himself probably barely even knew Chris as anything other than "that weird [[autism|autistic]] kid Sarah hangs out with".

The trio of [[Sonichu]], [[Rosechu]] and [[Black Sonichu]] in Chris's early ideas before the comic started, existed to represent the "hero, lover and rival" triangle that Chris believed himself, Sarah and Wes to fulfill as well, with Chris [[Chris and his ego|obviously]] cast as the hero, and Wes as the villain. This is evident in the [[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]] story, in which he represented himself and Sarah as Sonichu and Rosechu, and when Wes was brought up in passing, Chris included a drawing of Blake holding a magic wand and magician's hat, complete with helpful annotation pointing out that he was evil. Chris would later come up with unique Sonichu forms for himself, Wes and Sarah instead of using Sonichu, Rosechu and Blake as stand-ins, and these new Sonichu forms would go on to be featured in the [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comics]].

Chris also included avatars of Wes in his homemade ''[[Animal Crossing]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' cards, for both his human form and his Sonichu form in each, (though in the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' cards the human Wes Iseli was just named as "A [[JERKS|Jerk]]").

Wes (under comic alias Walter Grisby) was mentioned in the infamous [[Chris Loses It]] video. In that video, Chris, after performing a spectacular act of [[tard rage]], pretends to call Walter Grisby, asking him "Who threw the frisbee?", before yelling at the telephone and [[:Category:Videos with Camera Abuse|throwing it]] at the [[PSEye]].

Wes made an appearance on the TV series ''{{w|Penn & Teller: Fool Us}}'' and successfully fooled them, on a season 7 episode aired on 6 [[July 2020]].

== In the comic ==

As the author of the comic, when Chris first made [[Sonichu 2|Sonichu #2]] he was given the unique opportunity to [[Chris and reality|revise his personal history with Wes]] at his leisure. Comic Wes differs from his real life counterpart in that whilst the real Wes Iseli broke up with Sarah, moved on, married another woman, probably forgot Chris ever existed and is now [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcybvGOvmrY running a charity which helps fight Parkinson's Disease], Comic Wes appears to have [[Chris and his Ego|held a grudge against Chris]] ever since he first met him while he was dating Sarah, in spite of Chris having nothing he wanted and Wes having no reason to care about Chris. Dialogue also indicates that he was still dating Sarah by the time the trio first gained their powers, as Sarah "breaks up" with him halfway through Episode 8.

=== Wesley Iseli/Walter Grisby ===
Wes Iseli (later [[Retroactive continuity in Sonichu|retconned]] as "'''Walter Grisby'''") was one of the chosen three of the [[Anchuent Prophecy]], alongside [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Christian Weston Chandler]] and [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]]. Wes learned that he was the descendant of the [[Wasabi Clan]], and upon gaining his powers his own ancestor implored him to take vengeance upon the [[Ancient leader of the Cherokee Clan]], who was now Chris. Wes, knowing of Chris's jealousy towards him, accepts.

He later finds both Chris and [[Sonichu]] out on the "rough terrain" just outside [[CWCville]], and the two fight, not only over their current feud, but also over the Cherokee/Wasabi war in the ancient past, over the [[Cherokian Crown]]. Wes grabs the crown out of thin air during the fight (implying he stole it from Chris, which was [[Chris and writing|never depicted]]) and eventually the fight ends when Sarah appears and pins Wes against a tree with a lightning arrow, just as he was about to defeat Chris. Sarah breaks up with him, he whines a bit, [[Chris and hypocrisy|Chris tells him to suck it up and move on]], and he then unites with Chris and Sarah to defeat the {{w|golem}} summoned by [[Mary Lee Walsh]] and [[Count Graduon]].

[[Image:Sonichu05-P12.jpg|thumb|Wes-Li Sonichu apparently [[Chris and art|grows to about 20 feet tall]], does an {{w|Edward G. Robinson}} impression, and kidnaps [[Sarah Hammer]] in [[Sonichu 5|''Sonichu'' #5]]]]

In [[Sonichu 5|''Sonichu #5'']] he appeared again to use his magical powers to kidnap Sarah at her wedding to [[William Spicer]]. Despite ostensibly not wanting to be kidnapped, Sarah neglects to employ any of her Anchuent powers, and thus Chris must take him down. This being the early days of the [[Megan]] Saga, Chris drew heavily from anime themes in this issue, so Chris and Wes did battle via [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|children's card games]] rather than an actual fight. Chris loses (again), proving for a second time that Wes was a superior fighter to him, but he and Sarah are saved by [[Sailor Megtune]] and [[Megagi La Skunk]], and the wedding continues without issue.

Iseli was briefly seen in [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu #7'']], attending the conference of villains following Christian's disappearance into the [[Time Void]]. Given that the conference was run by Mary and Count Graduon, the evil that Wes was destined to defeat alongside Chris and Sarah, the prophecy seems to have gone horribly wrong. [[Chris and writing|Chris, naturally, does not address this]].

Wes was last seen in the comic in [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu #9'']], appearing on a grand total of two pages. First early in the issue, where he was seen scouting around the city in preparation for the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens|PVCC]] attack, assisted by [[Reldnahc Ha-Taque]] and [[Silvana]], and later on again, when he calls Mary and tells her that a magic dome was protecting the [[CWCville Shopping Center]] from attack, and that they needed Mary to come down there personally to get through. He is never seen fighting in this issue, and it is to date his final appearance.

Still to this day, Wes's final fate remains unknown. Whether he was counted among the brainwashing victims freed by Chris or not has never been stated, and depending on whether or not Wes was acting of his own free will in helping Mary and the PVCC, he may or may not be the last surviving villain other than [[Clawdorf]] and [[Metal Sonichu]] after the [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu #10'']] purge.

===Wes-Li Sonichu===
[[Image:FlameSnipers.jpg|thumb|Wes-li's Flame Sniper (left) compared to Sailor Mars' Flame Sniper (right).]]

Wes-Li Sonichu (pronounced [wɛzlaɪ], "Wez-lie", according to Chris's [[videobooks]], and as "Wesley" according to the [[Audiobooks]]) is the [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] form of Wes Iseli when he is transformed by the Fireshock Pendant empowered by the [[Anchuent Prophecy]]. Although the prophecy foretold that Wes-Li, [[Chris-Chan Sonichu|Chris-Chan]], and [[Saramah Rosechu|Saramah]] would work together to defeat [[Count Graduon]], Wes's spitefulness toward Chris and his bitterness at having been rejected by [[Sarah Hammer]] would lead him to use his powers for evil.

Prior to the retcon, Wes-Li was a passable pun. With the name change, it makes absolutely no sense that a person named "Walter Grisby" would have an alter ego that does not resemble his name in any way - unless one knows the background of this character. Renaming him something like "Wal-By Sonichu" was something Chris did not bother with.

Curiously, Wes-Li is one of the more detailed Sonichus that Chris has made, which is saying something given the [[Chris and art#Tracing|cookie-cutter]] nature of most of the other characters Chris has designed.

As he is not featured much, Wes-Li Sonichu is not seen to possess anything like the absurdly vast array of powers that Chris-Chan Sonichu does. He is, however, seen using the Pokémon moves Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Mega Kick and Sky Uppercut, as well as a move known as the Flame Sniper, in which he uses a bow and arrow made of fire to shoot at a target. The name and attack itself are another rip-off from [[Sailor Moon]]. With help from Chris-Chan and Saramah, Wes-Li can also use the "Team Blast: Blue Fireball Attack", but being the stupid Deus Ex Machina finishing move it is, the attack is used only once to destroy Graduon's golem and is never used again. It is also ripped off from ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic Heroes]]''.

=== Wasabi Rival ===
[[File:Wasabi rival.jpg|100px|thumb|left|The Wasabi Rival or the Pope? YOU DECIDE!]]

The Wasabi Rival was the ancient alter ego of Wes Iseli in the ''Sonichu'' comics. According to ''[[Sonichu 2]]'', the [[Wasabi Clan]] were contemporaries of the Ancient Cherokee. One of the Wasabi, presumably a leader figure of some sort, somehow determined that stealing the [[Cherokian Crown]] from his [[Ancient leader of the Cherokee Clan|rival]] would allow him and his tribe to rule the world. This led to a bitter rivalry between the ambitious Wasabi man and the Cherokian Leader. Despite their differences, the Cherokian Leader and his Wasabi Rival were eventually able to forge a temporary alliance against the greater menace of [[Count Graduon]]. Together, the Wasabi and Cherokee defeated Graduon, imprisoning him within a magic scepter for centuries.

Years later, when the [[Anchuent Prophecy]] was at last fulfilled, the Wasabi Rival appeared in a vision to his reincarnation, Wes Iseli, in order to instruct him in use of the Fireshock Pendant. Exactly how and why the Wasabi Rival is able to communicate with Wes like this is not explained. He teaches Wes how to use all his powers and sends him off to his first battle.

Notably, even though the entire reason Wes had the powers at all was because Count Graduon had come back and needed to be stopped again, something the Wasabi Rival should have known was the priority at that moment, he still told Wes to go after Chris and steal the [[Cherokian Crown]] anyway. Either that crown is ''really, really important'', or the Wasabi Rival just enjoys being a douche from beyond the grave.

CWCRockin4Way.jpg

2025-11-24T04:43:09Z

KennyOfHrub:

{{Honest}}
[[Image:CWCRockin4Way.jpg|thumb|right|They came for CWC.]]

'''CWCRockin4Way.jpg''' (released officially on [[CWCipedia]] as ''CWCMenajAQuad.jpg'', because [[Honor roll|Chris really can't speak French]]) was a leaked image of [[Chris]] engaged in an orgy where he is penetrating a "half and half" (biracial woman) from behind, while fingering a blonde woman and, surprisingly, a [[niggos|black woman]].

Some argue that this is the most scandalous image in the CWC canon since [[ShecameforCWC.JPG]]. It is still ''less'' scandalous in that this time, the women offended are entirely products of Chris's imagination, which is [[Things Chris has ripped off|a first]]. Of course, this doesn't really offer that much relief, especially when Chris has possibly deluded himself into thinking that these women ''are,'' in fact, real.

==Analysis==
[[Image:CWCanatomyfail.jpg|thumb|200px|right|What the picture looks like with the "half-and-half" removed by an amateur MS Paint user. Thus, it is revealed that Chris fails harder at anatomy than [[Wikipedia:Rob Liefeld#Art_style_and_credit|Rob Liefeld]].]]

Whenever Chris attempts to do [[Rule 34]], he [[Chris and art|fails]] in his usual spectacular fashion. Like his previous benchmark for illustrated depravity, this drawing is a truly awful piece of work:

*One of Chris's legs appears much longer than the other. This is especially apparent when the "half-and-half" is edited out with image manipulation. Adding to that, his left leg appears to bend at an agonizing-looking angle.
* There is no physical way for what Chris and the "half-and-half" are doing to happen. Even ''if'' the girl were sitting on his lap, there's no realistic way for his [[duck]] to reach her [[china]] like that. The way it's drawn, Chris has cut himself at the waist and his duck is just ''stuck'' in there.
* Chris seems to have attempted to show the arches on feet by drawing lines on them to indicate that they're facing sole-forward, but the lines connect up with the toes, making it seem like everyone has nightmarishly-long toes instead.
* Even when ignoring the obvious anatomical gaffes, the sex position and the whole ''situation'' in the picture is something that just wouldn't work in real life. This is what happens when all of your knowledge about sex comes from [[Chris and sex#Knowledge of sex and gender|pornography]].
* Once again, Chris is shown fingering women in a way that is not physically possible in real life. Also, if you look far away enough, it looks like Chris is pinching their chinas, rather than reaching in.
* Both the "half-and-half" and the black woman are just not reacting at all. Compared to the blonde-haired girl, the black one looks like she's rocking out to some music, and the half-and-half is just waiting for something to happen. Considering Chris's duck, though, this is not too unrealistic.
* Once again, Chris's eyes are way too far up his head, being where the fringe or hairline would be on most people.
* Once again, Chris has made sure to include both the [[medallions|medallion]] and his [[heterochromia|different-colored eyes]].
* In real life, the [[Gitar of Fail]] and SingStar microphone(?) are not, strictly speaking, ''essential'' sex toys.
* Despite his newfound ''\m/ total hardcore death heavy Guitar Hero metal \m/'' lifestyle, there's still a portrait of [[Britney Spears]] on the wall, complete with "Oops!"
{{-}}

==Appearances==
The image was first leaked to the trolling public by [[Bryan Bash]] towards the end of [[September 2009]]. Chris himself officially acknowledged the image a couple of weeks later, in his [[Warning - Naughty Women ;)|10 October Captain's Log]], where he waved it about with great enthusiasm as a totem of his alleged heterosexuality. He then gave it a permanent home on [[CWCipedia]].

==Fantasy or reality?==
[[Image:CWCRockin4Gay.jpg|thumb|right|Indeed they came.]]
While it's always a dicey proposition trying to draw grand conclusions from Chris's demented rants, his comments on the image suggest that he might believe he has actually performed the acts depicted. In the [[Captain's Log, Stardate October 10th, 2009|Captain's Log video]] where he gave the picture its official debut, he declares "I'm having sex with three women!" Not "I drew myself having sex with three women," or even "I'd sure have sex with three women if I ever got the chance," but "I'm having sex with three women."

It's well-established that Chris has an occasionally tenuous grasp of the distinction between [[Chris and reality|fantasy and reality]], especially with regards to the lives lead by his fictional creations. Chris may have reached a point where putting his fantasies down on paper is enough, from his point of view, to make them real. He has displayed this tendency before, when he equated [[You know what, I HATE ME TOO!!!|drawing himself experiencing various misfortunes]] to actual suffering. He at least considers the image to be indisputable proof of his straightness, fetishising it along with other random objects like his [[Optimus Prime]] toy and [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|Sailor Moon poster]]. In Chris's mind, the horrifying image possesses a far greater significance than your average piece of terrible, terrible artwork.

Chris is not so shallow as to be fucking three random ladies. Rather, these are members of his ''[[Guitar Hero]]'' band and they have unique names. Jody Zimmerman (the [[niggos|black]] one) is the drummer, Zuri Alryte (the "Half-and-Half") is the singer, and Kiera Bei (the [[Britney Spears|Aryan blonde]]) is the bass player. So, yes, Chris is building his virtual harem.

[[Image:CWCRockin4Gay.jpg|thumb|200px|"If I was a homosexual..."]]

'''Warning - Naughty Women ;)''' (officially '''10102009 Warning - Naughty Women. ;)''') is a video in which [[Chris]] tries to use [[CWCRockin4Way.jpg]], a drawing of himself [[Fuck Quest|having sex]] with three female members of his [[Guitar Hero]] "rock band" as evidence against allegations that he's a [[homos|homosexual]]. He also specifically points out that one of them is [[Niggos|"half-and-half"]] to refute accusations of [[Racism|racism.]]

Of course, by trying to pass a drawing off as a photograph, all Chris really proves is that he lacks the ability to [[Chris and reality|distinguish fantasy from reality]]. He also accuses trolls of being immature, while showing off a Rule 34 drawing he did of his virtual harem from a video game. [[Chris and hypocrisy|Real mature, Chris]].

Interestingly, Chris '''only''' denies that he is [[SLGBTQ|gay, bisexual, or lesbian]] in the video. [[Transgender|Classic foreshadowing.]]

And I tell you what. If I was a homosexual or anything like that, would I not-would I be having sex...

[''angles camera down and shoves [[CWCRockin4Way.jpg]] fully into the frame, with strips of paper taped over the genitals and nipples, [[Manboobs|including Chris's]]'']

..with THREE WOMEN? Huh? Huh? Look at it! Look at it! [[Chris and reality|I'm having sex with three women]], and you know what? The one in the middle is [[niggos|half-and-half!]]

==Social life==
[[Image:481-TungstenPoster.JPG|thumb|left|350px|Tungsten. That is all.]]
Most of Chris's friends were [[gal pal]]s, not [[Asperchu|joy-boys]]. During his senior year, he had classes and ate lunch with them every other day (the high school had alternating "odd" and "even" days; on odd days he ate alone). He seemed to have had a strong dislike toward pupils he saw as immature boys,<ref>[[A Week With Christian Chandler]]</ref> which might be related to Chris having been constantly picked on. Chris's purported friends:

* [[Kellie Andes]]
* [[Tiffany Gowen]]
* [[Gal pal#Sarah Anne Bevel|Sarah Bevel]]
* [[Gal pal#Miranda Joyce Mitchell|Miranda Mitchell]]
* [[Gal pal#Molly Quarles|Molly Quarles]], happy and giggly
* [[Joseph Herring]], fellow water boy for the basketball team (graduated 1998)
* Brian, [[JERKS|boyfriend]] of Sarah<ref>[[:Image:0310-CWCNote6.jpg|DVD]], note 6; [[A Week With Christian Chandler]], page 8</ref>

In reality, none of those people can be legitimately said to have been a friend of Chris. As he himself admits, he spent little time with his "friends" outside of school hours<ref>[[Kacey Call 20]]</ref> and in his [[Song of Christian]] (written at age sixteen) he describes himself as being lonely and isolated. He couldn't go to pep rallies because they were "too loud". Years later, Chris found out that none of his gal-pals actually liked him and that they were actually arranged by Bob and the principal, much to his devastation. In the Facebook post where he revealed this, he also made the bizarre claim that he hadn't really been bullied much because he'd never been beaten up or stuffed into a locker, seemingly oblivious to the fact that the vast majority of school bullying consists of emotional, not physical abuse.

==Go Lancers!==
[[File:TheLancers.jpg|thumb|right|100px|The logo of the team Chris uploaded on [[Facebook]] on 9 [[August 2013]].]]
[[Image:0242-CWC&VarsityBBallTeam97Color.jpg|thumb|left|Chris happily serving [[niggos]]. Ironic.]]

Chris was a [[Wikipedia:Water boy|water boy]] (and a "manager", [[Chris and his Ego|according to him]]) for the Manchester High Lancers [[Bionic the Hedgehog|basketball]] team during his freshman year, along with [[Joseph Herring]]. He got a certificate and an embroidery "M" for this work.<ref name="teen" /> Chris's servitude to the basketball team, probably the only meaningful interaction he had with other [[jerks|males]] throughout his entire adolescence, remains a cherished memory, so much so that he continues to obsess about it... ''over a decade after graduating''.

A few references were slipped into the comic. Manchester High was featured heavily in [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]]. It begins with [[Christian Weston Chandler (character)|Chris]] hanging around his old school [[Pedofork|without being there on any official business.]] [[Magi-Chan]] then brings Chris and [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] back in time to [[1990s#1996|1996]], when Chris was a fourteen-year old waterboy. Based on his actions in the comic, his "manager" job consisted of leaning against a wall. In [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]], [[Megagi La Skunk]] was depicted wearing a Lancers cheerleader outfit.

In [[August 2010]], Chris made a handful of characters and a vehicle in ''[[ModNation Racers]]'' to commemorate his time with the basketball team. The Manchester High ''ModNation'' collection includes the team bus, two of the players, a [[Laura Beth Dorazio|cheerleader]], and Chris himself at age 14, looking as if he's afraid of being jumped by something just behind him.

On 9 [[August 2013]], as Chris continued to fantasize about his high school years, Chris uploaded the logo of the team on [[Facebook]]. In November he revealed his "fantastical" [[CWC Lego Manchester High School Oct 18 2013|Lego high school]], which was festooned with a number of Lancers stickers. It featured a basketball court, gymnasium, showers, and locker room.

During his freshman year, Chris was forced to use the Special-Ed bus due to a supposed altercation with another student. According to Chris, he and [[Niggo|the other student]] were in constant competition to be the first off the bus. One day, the boy punched Chris to beat him out the door. At this point, Chris's recollections are inconsistent – in one version, he did not fight back, did not bleed, and his glasses were broken;<ref name="Jackie Chat 9"/> in another, Chris punched back and ended up a nosebleed;<ref>[[Kacey Call 9]]</ref> in yet another, his glasses were unbroken.<ref>[[Reddit]]</ref>

To resolve the issue, Chris was reassigned to the Special-Ed bus, a decision that devastated him. Chris expressed discomfort being grouped with other students with disabilities, especially by describing them as "[[slow-in-the-minds|slow in the minds]]", reflecting internalized stigma and ableism.

Chris's parents then met with school administration, who placed Chris on the Special Ed bus while the other boy "got off scott-free".

Given Chris's propensity for framing himself as the victim and his unrealistic assessment (a high school freshman isn't going to care about a race to get off the school bus first, especially against a mentally slow student, and if he had, and assaulted Chris for it, the school would have thrown the book at him), it's likely the events unfolded a different way. Chris, in his autistic zeal to be first off the bus, might have simply bumped into the other student, slipped, and fell.

==The Senior Prom==
Unknowingly foreshadowing future events, Chris took his [[Barbara Chandler|mom]] to the seinor [sic] prom. His [[gal pal]] [[Tiffany Gowen]] felt sorry for him, and so she asked him to dance, which they did so for what seemed like hours to Chris (and arguably seemed like hours to Tiffany too). Chris hopes to re-enact this historic moment at an upcoming high school reunion.<ref>[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#The Seinor Prom]]</ref> That is assuming there aren't security guards there for the express purpose of keeping him out.

==Graduation==
[[Image:0558-ChrisChanOfY2KClass.jpg|thumb|Chris in his graduation gown. The white thing around his neck generally indicates [[honor roll]].]]

For Chris, graduation was an emotional experience. Prior to the handing out of the diplomas was an award ceremony recognizing gifted students. Chris became jealous and upset that he was not given an award for his art class assignments. Chris was so upset about this that, many years later, he fantasised about going back in time and slipping in an award for himself.<ref> [[The Place chats (November 2020)#Trophies]]</ref> When the diploma ceremony rolled around and it was his turn to receive it, a despondent Chris took his diploma, slapped away the hand of the presenter when he offered a handshake,<ref>[[June 2019 social media posts#Chris wants to reconcile with Manchester High and the Cwcki's domain]]</ref> then ran off to cry. The Star pin has since been lost.<ref> [[The Place chats (November 2020)#Trophies]]</ref>

In his own words:<ref>[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#Graduation]]</ref>

{{quotebox|I ONLY got recognized for my Grades with a Star Pin, yet they had [[Chris and English|MORE FANCIER]] AWARDS for more important qualities. I should have been Highly Recognized for [[Chris and art|my ARTISTIC TALENTS]] I showed in my Many Art Classes for the Award Ceremonies before Graduation Day. I felt crestfallen greatly from not getting recognized for [[Chris and his Ego|any of my Talents]]. [[Chris and anger|I EXCELLED IN MATH TOO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD]]!

I had gotten over the Award Ceremony on the Graduation Day, but to add Lemon Juice to an open wound, it was a Dark and Rainy Day that Day, and they handed out MORE TALENTED AWARDS right before handing out any diplomas. When I went up there to get mine, I was feeling depressed, upset, crestfallen and ticked off. When the award was handed to me, I took it without looking anyone in the eye, and I did not shake anyone's hands. I just walked back to my seat in the Graduating Crowd. Then soon after, I just walked the wrong way up the center aisle, found an isolated table and cried myself out. [[Barbara Chandler|My mother]] found me later and comforted me; [[Bob Chandler|my father]] was ashamed of the way I acted, and he would later still be angry at recalling the moment. [[Tiffany Gowen|Tiffany]] also found me and gave me a caring moment of condolences back there. I gave her a plush Psyduck as a graduating gift beforehand.}}

[[Image:Chris accepting diploma at MHS graduation.jpg|thumb|Chris accepts his MHS diploma on stage. This photo must have been taken immediately before he ran off to cry.]]

In another retelling, Chris reveals more straight anger:<ref>DVD, graduation notes [[:Image:0566-GraduationNote1.jpg|1]] and [[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|2]]</ref>

{{quotebox|So while I sit there and feel happy for my friends who got something, I was so %$@# JEALOUS. I was a High-Functioning Autistic Boy who came WAAAAAAAAAY BEYOND OUT OF HIS SOCIAL SHELL, only to get ZILCH, NADA, ZIP; A BIG FAT ZERO! I felt so Devistated and Out Of Sync :'(

[...]

I ended up doing what I did when I went up there to accept the diploma; NO HANDSHAKE, TEARS, AND RUNNING AWAY TO HIDE. They don't even have any pictures of that in the Y2K Yearbook; the caption should have read, "Student Christian Chandler is Depressed and Sad for some reasons. His response is tears and fright."

Even now as I type this, I am still *&$%^#@ Angry that I didn't get anything for the things I've poured my heart, soul and hand-work into, nor emerged as a friend to quite a few, nor developing a positive social behavior similar to [[Red Skelton]].}}

More recently, however, he has rewritten the story to incorporate his nostalgia for lost friendships:<ref>[[CWC's Hallmark Negative Life Events]]. See also [[Autism Tutorial Part 3]] and [[September 2013 Facebook Posts#Chris is losing friends]].</ref>

{{quotebox|Graduation time: I only got a Star pin for my grades; No Awards for my talents. Between that and leaving the Best circle of friends I ever had, along with leaving the Best days of my life behind, I shook no one's hand and cried a Lot upon receiving my diploma. Plus it was raining heavily that Graduation day.}}

The evil [[Count Graduon]]'s name was derived from Chris's feelings about his graduation.<ref>[[Jackie Chat 7]]</ref>

{{-}}

==Yearbooks==
[[File:ChrisChanY2K.jpg|thumb|Chris's yearbook photo.]]

The yearbook bore the title ''MASALA'', a Hindi term for a "mixture".<ref>[[CWC Lego Manchester High School Oct 18 2013]] at 1:49</ref> Chris bought two yearbooks, apparently because he gave order forms to both [[Bob Chandler|Bob]] and [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] to fill out. Nobody signed his yearbook because they weren't delivered until after graduation.<ref>[[Rental_House_Tour]]</ref> Chris enjoyed looking at (and [[mass debating]] to?) the image of his old gal-pals and included many yearbook images on the 2007 DVD.<ref>[[Christian Weston Chandler...Yep, I'm on TV :)]]</ref> In 2009, he threw his yearbook around the room in a demonstration of strength.<ref>[[Challenge for Clyde]]</ref> In 2010, Chris showed the yearbooks during his abortive attempt to scare up a class reunion.<ref>[[EXCLUSIVE Manchester High School 2000 Reunion Required NOW]]</ref> The yearbooks survived the 2014 [[fire]] with smoke and water damage. Post-fire in 2014, [[Catherine]] and Al saw the yearbooks at 14 BC.

==Lingering attachments==
{{quote|I left my [[heart level|heart]] back at Manchester High in Midlothian.|Chris<ref>[[Autism Tutorial Part 3]]</ref>}}

Generally speaking, Chris's memories of high school still hold great significance for him. This is unsurprising, given that high school was the last time he regularly got out and about in a social environment that seems to have at least partially accepted and tolerated him, though this was most likely because snapping at an [[autism|autistic]] child in a public school can get you suspended.

Chris has mentioned that he frequently [[dreams]] of his days in high school, recalling his teenage years in a nostalgic tone. A [[100 2178|May 2010 YouTube video]] features a flood of wistful reminiscing from Chris, as he laments having to move away from the suburb where he went to high school: "I had so many friends over there, in high school. And I was just sad to leave, when I, after I graduated." A good half dozen of the women he recalled in his archive of "[[Gal-Pals and Past Sweethearts (CWCipedia page)|gal pals and past sweethearts]]" (and most of the ones who weren't trolls) were girls he knew in high school.

There's also the matter of the aforementioned Count Graduon, in whom Chris may have created an embodiment of the concept of leaving high school to be the dominant villain of the entire Sonichu saga. His graduation ceremony is perhaps one of his most painful memories, and it's particularly fitting that Chris transforms the experience into a villain in his own comic book, all things considered.

In 2013, inspired in large part by ''[[My Little Pony]]: [[Equestria Girls]]'' (his second favorite movie of all time), Chris made a Lego model of his school, complete with labelled mini-figures of his old gal pals, because Chris being Chris, he obviously doesn't realize how creepy making effigies of his former lovers is. In October, he showcased his creation in a [[CWC Lego Manchester High School Oct 18 2013|YouTube video]], a few days after [[October 2013 Facebook Posts#Reality Comes Knocking|discovering]] that his high school gal pals, being brave and compassionate souls, only tolerated him and allowed him near them out of pity. Not that Chris appreciates such charity.

When his [[Destruction Of Chris's House|house burned down]] on 10 January 2014, the Lego high school partially melted, and was photographed and salvaged by Chris the very next day. One of his first orders of business after moving into his [[Rental House|temporary home]] was to rebuild the school, which he accomplished by March, rededicating it to MHS. He continued to expand it into the summer, and used his high school yearbook to make Lego figurines of the entire staff.

==Reunion plans==
{{quote|I know it was Promised, because at the end of the slideshow they had at the Prom, it had a HUGE Message stating, "See You at the Reunion in Ten Year [sic]." I am no longer going to take the insubordination and belaboring-to-no-promise-keeping sitting down anymore.|Chris on his "Promised Reunion"<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 9]]</ref>}}
[[File:Reunion.jpg|thumb|Chris's flier for the failed 15 annual reunion.]]

Chris's intense yearning to return to high school manifested itself in a protracted focus on attending his reunion. He imagined his reunion almost exclusively within the context of reconnecting with his old gal-pals, specifically [[Tiffany Gowen]], who he planned on asking to dance. In his "Gal-Pals and Past Sweethearts" page from the [[CWCipedia]], Chris noted that he didn't know exactly when this would take place, but he made no effort to find out until mid-2010, as he assumed somebody from the school would have contacted him by then. He decided to be proactive and took several clumsy steps to bring the reunion to fruition. He planned to call the principal and demand action. He made a post on [https://web.archive.org/web/20180614142516/http://www.classmates.com/reunions/Manchester-High-School/Class-of-2000/281228 Classmates.com] announcing the event. He personally typed up a list of his classmates' names, and on 27 [[August 2010]], uploaded a [[EXCLUSIVE Manchester High School 2000 Reunion Required NOW|video address]] to [[YouTube]], a desperate plea for help in organizing it. Then he left it up to his father to field the incoming calls. Nothing came of this apart from [[weening]].<ref>[[Jackie E-mails 9]], [[Jackie E-mails 10]], and [[Jackie E-mails 21]].</ref> In November there may have been a class reunion,{{cite}} but either way, Chris did not attend.

Three years later, still missing his old circle of gal-pals, he tried again, this time for a fifteenth annual reunion, even though it would be ''two years'' in the future. In August 2013, he contacted and friended everyone in the Class of 2000 he could track down. He sent gifts to some of them and started to refer to his class as "My Family." "I feel this is of utmost importance; I do not want anyone absent from the main reunion I am rounding everyone up for," he emphasized.<ref>[[September 2013 Facebook Posts#Reunion update]]</ref> With the assistance of smarter people than himself, he produced a flier, and used his personal Facebook page to provide updates. Simultaneously he engrossed himself in the parallel fantasy of constructing his Lego Manchester High School. However, a combination of general apathy, troll shenanigans, and his Facebook friends' exposure to the bizarre and assholish sides of Chris thwarted his efforts. The roof caved in on 30 October, when he learned that his so-called friends had been nothing more than "hired help." He sank into depression and stopped caring about the reunion. The following summer he grumbled, "F***ing, D***ed Facebook, Ruining [[Chris_and_socialization|socializing]] and making reunions considered outdated and obsolete). ]:(."<ref>[[List of OkCupid Answers]]</ref>

2015 came and went, no reunion is known to have been held, and Chris has apparently stopped caring about it. With his ideal fantasy of high school shattered into pieces, it is likely Chris has completely given up on this universe of being happy and well liked in High School and has shifted his attention to a different [[Dimensional_Merge|universe]] where he is all powerful and worshipped as a goddess. In any case, it's fairly likely that Manchester High has long since banned him from setting foot on it as it happened with PVCC.

Ironically enough, Chris would end up returning to Midlothian many years later - he was sighted at the local Wal-Mart by weens, a few months after his release from jail. During this time, he lived at Gateway Homes, a residential care setting for mentally-ill adults in the area.

CWCki:Frequently Asked Questions

2025-11-23T14:39:17Z

KennyOfHrub: /* Psychology */

[[File:0782-CWCSpread.JPG|thumb|Welcome to the world of [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris-Chan]].]]

'''Welcome, new Christorian.'''

New people are being initiated to the quirks and horrors of [[Chris]]'s world every day. Some of these people have simple questions that the veteran [[trolls|troll]] might be able to answer with the greatest of ease. However, people hate being asked the same questions time and time again, so this page shall serve as a quick database of some of the most common questions encountered.

All the questions can be answered in more detail than they appear here, which should be an incentive for you to go peruse the wiki and other resources to learn all you can about the Internet's favorite manchild.

''This page was last updated on 8 April 2025, but as the Christory constantly evolves, this page will have to follow.''
==Trolling==

; Is Chris a [[troll]]? Is the whole thing a hoax?
: '''No.''' The verified documentation on Chris and his entire life is far too complete and detailed for it to be a reverse-troll setup. There are news reports from his childhood confirming his autism (see [[Chris in the media]]). There are [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer|two]] [[University of Virginia#UVA student on Chris|different]] blogs about Chris's behavior that were published before Chris came to a wider attention on the Internet. [[Sonichu]] has existed since [[2000]]. Phone calls have been made to Chris's parents and his [[Rocky Shoemaker call|pastoral counselor]]. When Chris was first [[28 October 2011|arrested and convicted]] of a felony, he acted as he does online [[This is how the Trial went|even in court]], and accidentally [[Destruction Of Chris's House|set fire to]] [[14 Branchland Court|his house]] in real life as well. If you don't believe us, you can look up Chris's many [[Chris and the law|court records]], both civil and criminal.

: Chris's arrest for [[Affair with Mother|incest]] in August 2021 should put any speculation of his behavior being an act permanently to rest.

; How can you get off taunting an [[autistic]] <s>guy</s> person?
: The CWCki itself is not involved in any trolling; it merely documents Chris's life in detail. Most modern Chris-observers, having seen the [[Idea Guys|extreme damage]] that some trolls could wreak, hold a dim view of [[weening|contemporary trolling efforts]]. The motivations of Chris's trolls over the years has varied, but few had any interest in tormenting him simply for having a mental problem. Some former trolls have even [[BlueSpike#Today|expressed regret]] for taking things too far in their younger years.

: Even before the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] scandal, Chris has been notorious on the Internet as a [[Nudes|perverse]], [[Chris and Health#Hygiene|disgu]][[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|sting]], [[Chris and the Law|quarrelsome]], [[Chris and Anger|mean-spirited]], [[Chris and Reality|delusional]], [[Chris and his Ego|narcissistic]], [[Niggos|intol]][[Women's rights|erant]], [[Obesity|unfit]], [[Chris and death|unsympathetic]], [[Bob Chandler|ungrateful]], [[Manchester High School#Graduation|jealous]], [[The GAMe PLACe|kid-scaring]], [[List of Christian's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|troll-feeding]], [[Chris and Religion|heretical]], [[Death Threats|spiteful]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|cruel]], [[Autism Tutorial Extra|hate]][[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|ful]], [[Chris and work|sullen]], [[Kick the Autistic|antagonistic]], [[Chris and Art|completely]] [[Chris and Writing|and]] [[Chris and Music|utterly]] [[Spanish|untalented]] [[Parody|thi]][[Things Chris has ripped off|ef]] and all-around failure who wastes his [[United States|countrymen]]'s hard-earned [[Monthly tugboat|tax money]] on [[video games]] and [[sex toys]] while contributing nothing to society (comics aside), despite those with more severe mental states living far more independently and successfully.

: On top of that, Chris was once incredibly responsive to trolling, adding fuel to the fire by producing many videos in which he [[tard rage|raged]] at the camera as a result of trolling; this no doubt gave many trolls significant motivation. While Chris was [[Chris and manipulation|manipulated]] into making many of these videos, he ultimately decided to create and publish them.

:However, before you want to inflict harm upon Chris and claim that Chris gives you [[Autism|autistics]] 'a bad name', please read the [[A-Logging]], [[Weening]] and [[Unholy Quintet]] articles.

; Why don't you try helping him instead?
: [[Vivitheg|Many]] [[Jackie|people]] [[Clyde Cash|better]] [[Alec Benson Leary calls|than]] [[Sarah May|you]] have tried over the years and they have all accomplished [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford|nothing]]. See the [[White knight]] article for reasons for and against ''trying'' to save Chris. Regardless of how hard you try, he refuses to listen. Even his [[Anna McLerran|actual friends]] could not help him. From 2018 onward, he managed to alienate nearly all of his IRL friends, instead preferring interactions with [[imaginary friends]], [[enablers]], and fans at [[conventions]]. He will only listen if you tell him what he wants to hear.

; Can I give suggestions on how next to troll Chris?
: '''All efforts to troll, seek out or otherwise contact Chris are ''very strongly discouraged'''''. The effects of Chris's [[Bob Chandler|father]]'s death, his [[Barbara Chandler|mother]]'s ill-health and, most recently, the [[Idea Guys]]' deliberately manipulative trolling operations against him have left Chris's grasp on [[Chris and reality|reality]] — and his well-being in general — tenuous at best, with various [[enablers]] making it even worse. Relating to this is how he is [[Weening#The Chris of today is nothing like his former self|now a very, ''very'' different person]] from who he was when the trolling was at its peak, and only sees such attempts to provoke him as indirect support for his current worldview; so it's not even worth bothering with if you're going into it expecting to get amusing reactions along the lines of the past. Times have changed; so keeping all this in mind, you'll be far better off just sticking with [[CWCki|casual observation]] and helping to [[CWCki:Improvement|document and provide information]] on developments and occurrences in Chris's life as they come.

==Psychology==

; Is he currently seeing a psychiatrist or therapist?
: '''Maybe.''' Chris was legally required in [[2018]], among other things, to attend psychological therapy as an alternative to [[Chris and the law#2018|conviction]] after trespassing. Since 23 April 2019, he has fulfilled this obligation and no longer has any professional help. Chris dismisses the idea of seeking professional help, preferring to [[A Moment With Dr Wolf Chris Chan and Greater Struggles|administer it to himself using Lego]]. See [[Chris and mental healthcare]].
; Is he really autistic?
: '''Yes.''' Based on a cursory [[Autism papers#Intake Survey|psychiatric survey]] from [[2004]], Chris was diagnosed with ''autistic disorder'' (DSM-IV 299.00) as a young child, and the same report backs up his claim. See [[Autism]]. However, his common qualifying phrase ''high-functioning'' means only that he is not [[slow-in-the-minds|mentally retarded]]. The phrase is not formally part of the diagnosis, and many autism advocates discourage its use.

; Does he have [[Asperger's syndrome]]?
: '''It depends''' on what counts as ''having'' Asperger's. He has never been formally diagnosed with it, he has never claimed to have it, and in fact, he angrily rejects the label. Among institutions that still distinguish between autism and Asperger's, of which many do not, Asperger's syndrome is distinguished from severer varieties of autism by average intelligence and adequate language ability, matching Chris. Dr Asperger's work was in German, and not known to Anglophone psychiatrists until the early [[1990s]]; Chris probably would have received this diagnosis instead if he had been born a few years later. Furthermore, the condition was removed from the modern ''DSM-5'' and replaced with the catch-all ''Autism Spectrum Disorder'', making the distinction completely meaningless.

; Is he [[Slow-in-the-minds|retarded]] or intellectually disabled?
: '''[[:File:Honor Roll I dont think so.jpg|Maybe]].''' A more proper word for Chris is ''inept''. Even if Chris was to be considered intellectually disabled, it'll certainly be a mild or borderline intellectual disability. Despite there being a possibility, he still managed to graduate from [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|community college]] and obtain a [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license]]. He can read, write, do basic household chores, and operate electronic equipment. While his [[Chris and English|English]] skills aren't perfect, he has very few issues with basic sentence structure. Chris does understand the consequences of his actions to an extent. He has a consistent (albeit warped and [[Chris and his ego|self-serving]]) ethical system and recognizes when what he is doing is not working (though he chooses to pin the blame on [[Greene County Conspiracy|external]] [[trolls|forces]] or go about his way anyway). His foolishness is in that he has very little common sense, which may be attributed (along with the [[autism|obvious]]) to excessive parental sheltering, and that after years of Internet manipulation, his ability to distinguish [[Chris and reality|reality]] from fantasy has wasted away.

; What is Chris's IQ?
: '''That's inconclusive.''' In [[Mailbag 19]] and [[Mailbag 21]], he claimed to have taken an IQ test at a [[Chesterfield County]] institute, most likely as a teenager. He received an IQ of "150". In [[Mailbag 22]], a commenter pointed out that he may have taken the Cattell IQ test (150 on the Cattell is 130 on the standard scale), unless he was outright lying, which is most likely. An IQ of 130 is above average, but not genius material. Many autistic people also excel at pattern thinking, which is a key area of many IQ tests. Also, IQ doesn't measure [[Honor roll|what you've learned]], [[Kindness|empathy]], social skills, or other areas that count towards real-world success. Psychologists do not even agree on whether it's an objective measure of intelligence, with a common quip being that it "only measures how well you do on IQ tests." Even if Chris did have a high IQ, it hasn't done much for him in the real world.

; Is Chris schizophrenic?
: '''Probably not.''' While autism and schizophrenia share some symptoms, their development is nothing like each other. Autism is inborn and shows in early childhood, while schizophrenia usually appears well into adulthood. Schizophrenia's symptoms often deteriorate over time, while autism is normally constant throughout life (except for a few children who relapse into non-verbosity). <abbr title="Inability to distinguish reality from fantasy.">Psychosis</abbr> and confused language are common to both, but take different forms: schizophrenics may hear voices or otherwise hallucinate and think disjointedly (hence the name), while autists understand others' normal language literally, missing the subtext that something fictional is not meant to be taken seriously, and presuming their own thoughts automatically clear to others.

:Furthermore, Chris does distinguish between fantasy and reality, simply deluding himself into believing that the fantasy world is real on another [[dimension]]. Also, Chris's visions of that dimension come from [[meditation]] (read: daydreaming), not involuntary hallucinations.

==Sex==
; Is Chris an <abbr title="Involuntary celibate">incel</abbr>? If not, what's the deal with the love quest?
: Chris never used the word for himself, but his beliefs and actions overlapped significantly with what is now the incel community. The word ''incel'' only entered common use about [[2017]].<ref>[https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=incel Global search trends for ''incel'']</ref> Chris described himself long before this as a [[virgin with rage]], even bringing up the term in casual conversations with people he just met. He would speak of [[boyfriend-free girl]]s, the [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]], and even a conspiracy that [[Virginia is for virgins|true love was illegal in his home state]].

: He viewed his search for a suitable mate as the [[Love Quest]], treating his search for a girlfriend like a video game. He wrote [[Saddest Heart in the World|poems]], [[I Want a Girlfriend for Christmas|letters to Santa]], and even [[So Need a Cute Girl|"Weird Al"-style parody songs]] about his biggest problem: that other [[JERKS]] (men) take all the pretty [[sweetheart]]s. He has lost his virginity to a [[Mia Hamm|prostitute]] and his only relationship that lead to sex was [[Affair with Mother|with his elderly mother]], not something you would consider a proper love life. His Love Quest only temporarly ended when he destroyed his libido through [[Chris and health#Hormone treatment|self-administered estrogen]] and [[polyamorous marriage|''married'']] his [[OC]]s by early 2018, but it seemed to resume in early 2021, the consequences of which we can see [[Jail Saga|ever]] [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#CVS|since]] [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Isabella's Italian Trattoria Restaurant|then]]. As of early 2025, he appears to be dating [[Flutter|a mysterious Finnish woman]].

; Why didn't he hire a prostitute earlier?
: For the majority of his [[love quest]], Chris refused to hire a hooker. The reasons varied: prostitutes are not [[TRUE and HONEST]] love, they are [[Chris and money|expensive]], and Chris is afraid of STDs<ref>[[Mumble 4|Mumble #4]]</ref>. His ideal sex partner would also do all the work around [[14 Branchland Court|the house]], give him her income to spend on video games, and otherwise serve as his replacement [[Barb|mother]]—all of which a prostitute would be unwilling to do. When some prostitutes were sent to his house in early [[2009]], he cried.<ref>[[Hooker incident]]</ref> However, as his thirties approached, he got more lenient about his policy towards hookers. He once tried to solicit the services of a prostitute by phone, and tried to get a discount by offering the chance of deflowering him and telling his life story; the prostitute hung up on him.<ref>[[Chris and sex|#Prostitution]]</ref> In [[April 2012]] though, Chris claimed on [[Facebook]] that he lost his virginity to [[Mia Hamm|a hooker]] who complimented him on the size of his penis.<ref>[[:File:Virginbreaker.png]]</ref>

; What is Chris's sexual orientation?
: This is a hotly debated point, and as of yet there is no consensus on this. For most of his adult life, Chris acted as though he was attracted to women. On the other hand, he clearly believes that previously-straight people can be turned gay, either by accident or through being tricked. In [[2018]], while under the [[Idea Guys]]' manipulative influence, Chris was [[brainwashed]] into believing he was [[bisexual]], and was [[polyamorous marriage|married to several of his (mostly male) fictional characters]], retaining these beliefs long after the Idea Guys were ousted, yet has made no attempts to get into a relationship with a real-life man. [[Jacob Sockness]] attempted to groom Chris into a relationship but Chris ultimately distanced himself from Sockness. Some consider that Chris is too immature to have earnest sexual attraction towards others (see ''Is Chris asexual?'', below.)

; Is he a [[Wikipedia:Furry fandom|furry]]?
: '''Yes.''' Chris had tweeted in [[2018]]  that he is one. Traditionally he would state that he did not consider himself to be one,<ref>[[Sarah_Reveals_Herself#Chris_tries_to_leave|Chris admits to Sarah May that he is slightly turned on by Rosechu, though he maintains he is not a furry.]]</ref> yet it was clear from an early period that he did enjoy [[:File:Chris-chan_Traced.JPG|porn]] of anthropomorphic characters, even [[Rule 34|drawing his own]] into [[Sonichu 8|his]] [[Giant Penis Comic|comics]]. He also identifies with [[Chris-Chan Sonichu|several]] [[Sonichu (character)|anthropomorphic]] [[Robbie|avatars]]. Although he does not regularly wear fur-suits, he did once dress up as [[ECV 00002|Chris-Chan Sonichu]], the anthropomorphic form he takes on his comic series, and has considered getting one in the recent years. He has also started following several furry artists and content creators on [[Youtube]] and [[Twitter]], such as AshCoyote, and has enjoyed a lot of furry fanart he has recieved from his [[True and Loyal fanbase]].

; Is he a [[pedofork|pedophile]]?
: '''No''', but people imply otherwise to troll him. One of the few kind things [[Mimms]] and [[Lucas]] said about Chris in a [[Mimms and Lucas Q&A|troll Q&A thread]] was that he probably wasn't a pedophile and that people are trying too hard with that. He ''has'' stated he would like to [[Mailbag 3#In which Chris advises Hitler to keep his Promises|lower his state's legal age of consent to sixteen]] and created a sexualized 14 year old Sonichu character in the form of [[Zapina]], but these actions are more likely due to a childish mindset and an inability to move past [[high school]] than latent pedophilia.

; Is Chris transgender?
: '''Yes.''' As of 2015, Chris identifies as [[transgender]]. He had explored his gender identity for years beforehand stemming from gender dysphoria issues, in 2011 identifying as a "tomgirl" (identifying as male and crossdressing as a woman); in 2014, identifying as [[August_2014_Facebook_Posts#Chris_comes_out...kinda|Intersex of Female Soul with Male Body, and a Tranny Cross-Dresser]] and as a lesbian; and identifying as female and transgender in 2015 when he began referring to himself as a "trans woman" and "Christine" and legally changed his name and gender in [[2016]]. Well before [[2011]], when Chris first called himself a tomgirl, he had been known to wear miniskirts, [[Muscle_bra|bras]], and panties. On multiple occasions, he had worn female clothing [[Forgot the Glitter|in public]] and had started wearing trans flag thigh-highs and bands more frequently during the [[Second Coming]].

; Is Chris asexual?
: This is another hotly contested issue to which there is no clear answer. Some claim that Chris is not truly interested in sexual relations, but feels that sex is something which a "grown up" is required to do. Chris's desire to lose his [[virgin with rage]] status may have simply been an urge to undergo what he saw as a traditional rite of passage into adulthood, although he has continued to seek out a sexual relationship even long after losing his virginity. It is clear that Chris's sex drive was atypical even before beginning hormone replacement therapy in [[2016]], evidenced by the fact that he did not discover [[masturbation]] until he was sixteen and even as an adult only engaged in the activity twice a week. On the other hand, much of Chris's adult life has been spent in the pursuit of a sex partner and his comic characters are [[Sonichu 8|highly sexual]]. It is worth noting that a moderately common autistic symptom is difficulty or inability to be intimate with another person. Many asexuals also possess a libido and can enjoy masturbation or sex; the difference lies in a lack of real attraction to other people.

; Did Chris really rape his mother?
: '''It's impossible to know for certain.''' Chris's detractors (and he has many) will vocally insist that he did, but there is no conclusive proof. Chris was only ever charged with incest, not rape, and there has been no definite confirmation of Barb having any mental incapacity. While there is plenty of [[Affair with Mother#Was it consensual?|compelling circumstantial evidence]] for both sides, ultimately only Chris and Barb can say for certain. Barb has never spoken publicly about it, and Chris is currently [[Lies|denying the incest itself ever took place]].

==Money and Work==

; Why does Chris call his disability check a "[[monthly tugboat]]"?
: The "tugboat" is one of Chris's [[CWC-isms]]; impenetrable mangled figures of speech that he either uses to avoid uncomfortable subjects or, in this case, because he thinks they are clever. "Tugboat" is derived from the phrase "Our ship has come in", referring to a fortuitous event. Whereas winning the lottery is like a large cruise ship coming in, for Chris, getting $1,000 a month for sitting on his ass is like a small boat—like a [[Wikipedia:Tugboat|tugboat]]—coming in for him.

; Has he ever had a [[job]] at all?
: He worked for [[Wendy's]] a few months in 2001, but he was fired for unknown reasons. He briefly sold knives for the multi-level marketing company [[Cutco]], which was his last true job (if you could call it that). During the [[Chris and business|Business Saga]] he was very active on Etsy, selling many custom-made Amiibos, Sonichu comics and so on, but he often sold them either at a loss or barely broke even, which resulted in the [[Financhu Crisis]]. He has also made plenty of [[commissions]] during the [[Everfree Northwest]] fundraiser and this has continued even after jail, with him making his custom medallions, selling literal rocks and making even more shitty commissions for the [[OfficialCWCMart]]. Some even speculate it's akin to being a sweatshop worker, but Chris enjoys doing it anyway, probably not even knowing it might be a real job.

; How much money does Chris make from his livestreams/Etsy shop?
: From watching his recent livestreams we can see that Chris typically receives between $600 - $700 in donations per stream. [[Praetor]]'s [[OfficialCWCmart|Etsy store]] sales have totaled well into the thousands of dollars, with individual [[Praetor Jail Art|jail art]] pieces selling for between $100 - $200 each, and some have even calculated their Etsy store to earn several thousands of bucks a month, though the exact revenue is unknown. It is generally speculated that Praetor takes a significant cut for themselves, though the exact details of their arrangement are not public knowledge. The only available info is from Chris, who claimed to get a measly $600 from a total of $4000 in sales during the [[Taser Call]].

==''Sonichu''==
; What's the deal with [[Sonic]], anyway?
: Chris has always liked family-friendly games in particular, and [[1993|many years ago,]] was one of 100 winners of a [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes|Sega contest]] which, through its grand prize of a $1000 {{w|KB Toys|Kay-Bee Toys}} shopping spree, allowed him to stock up on various ''Sonic'' titles. For some reason, the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series in general also appears to have certain qualities that attract autistic fans more than other game series.

; Where can I find the uncensored images from [[Sonichu 8|''Sonichu'' #8]]?
: For those who may be curious, they are located [[Sonichu 8#The uncensored scenes|here]].

; Will he ever draw more [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comics]]?
: Chris stopped drawing regular comics in [[February 2010]] with [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]]; since then, he has released issues #11 to #13 and partially completed issues #14 to #17; however, these later issues often only bear a slight resemblance to the traditional comics and are more about whatever trolling issues have been happening. While in jail, he produced some one-off drawings; see [[Praetor Jail Art]], but has since continued work on the issue #25, now renamed to [[Sonichu 0 HD|''Sonichu'' #0 HD]]. Judging from the contents of the message Chris has sent out to the winners of his [[CWC Art Contest]], he has also attempted to outsource the art for the comics to his unlucky fans. He also drew a cover for [[Sonichu 82|issue #82]].

==Contact Chris==
; I want to e-mail Chris and pretend to be [[Megan]]/[[Jimmy Hill]]/[[Jesus]]/[[Michael Snyder]]. Can I have his e-mail?
: He has had many emails over the years, but his most commonly used ones are @cwcvillegoddess and ChrisChanSonichu@aol.com, but Chris does not read e-mails from people he doesn't already know<ref>[[Kacey Call 23]]: "I don't even bother to open their e-mails. So I just expand on the e- on the sender's address and then add them to my block list."</ref>, and it's possible that Praetor has a strict control over these, judging from some of the info he has put out since.

; What is his dox?
: Chris's dox can be found [[NO D*** WAY, IMPOSTOR!!!|here]].

==The CWCki itself==
; Does the CWCki exaggerate or spin anything?
: The editors here try their hardest to paint an accurate picture of Chris's life, but that is sometimes difficult due to the subject matter and the intentional omission of information from trolls who were [[Manipulation|manipulating]] Chris. Many were CWCki editors themselves. This is especially true for the [[Classic Chris]] era.

: For various good reasons, the CWCki largely covers the Classic sagas from Chris's perspective: information presented here was what Chris acknowledges to be true. Trolls are merely players on the stage that is Chris's life. It is probably best to understand the world of Chris as he understands it, much as it is best to understand a fictional world from the point of view of its characters, rather than the underlying reality of it. In other words, while Chris's reactions to events are real and the documentation of the reactions are indeed real, the situations and characters that provoke these reactions are often contrived, especially when covering events prior to Bob's death.

: For example:

:* [[Clyde Cash]] was the fictitious persona of a single anonymous troll, but the CWCki treats him as if he ''were'' a real person because he was to Chris. We also treat each of his personas as separate people because they were to Chris.

:* We keep a single article on [[Blanca]] and not the multiple male trolls who played her.

:* [[Emily]] and [[Kim]] were played by the same woman, but the CWCki treats them as separate people because they were to Chris.

:* Celebrity trolls are obviously trolls impersonating celebrities – did you really think [[Billy Mays]] was involved in trolling?

: For transparency's sake, the CWCki discloses such discrepancies from reality using Protip boxes, troll disclosures, and other notices.

: Coverage of Modern Christory takes a more matter-of-fact approach, thanks to the ease of [[dox]]ing Internet trolls. Modern CWCki editors are also gradually transitioning classic articles away from the dramatized writing of yesterday, so those who prefer clarity are in luck.

; What's the deal with ''Chris and''? What is a saga?
: The CWCki has '''a few series that tie it all together'''. You can think of them as the skeleton, bloodstream, and nervous system of the site.
:* The [[Chris and]] series. This series is purely topical – it discusses subjects as they relate to Chris, regardless of the time period. These are the things that make Chris Chris. Such topics range from Chris's relationship with [[Chris and art|art]] and [[Video games|gaming]], to his [[health|physical]] and [[Coping|mental health]].
:* The [[Saga]] page. It describes the major events in Chris's life from the womb to the modern world, but still takes a topical approach, looking at arcs and happenings in Chris's existence.
:* The [[CWChronology]]: purely chronological as its name suggests. Here, you can learn Chris's entire story from start to now, even including events from before his conception.
; What happened to the tagline ''Where no shit is too minor''?
: The tagline was '''retired''' on 20 December 2019, '''because there was a significant increase in people trying to influence Chris'''. Many of them fall into one of the ''[[Unholy Quintet]]'':
:* [[White Knights]] – people who feel sorry for Chris, and try to help Chris, often without realising that getting Chris to halt his [[Chris and his Ego|self-destructive lifestyle]] is going to take a lot more than [[April 2017 Facebook posts#Chris explains why he won't get a job|a message]] on social media, or a [[Patreon]] donation.
:* [[A-Logging|A-logs]] – people who express disproportionate hatred for Chris, often wishing [[Destruction Of Chris's House|misery]] or physical harm on him.
:* [[Enablers]] – people who encourage Chris's negative habits. Some White Knights find themselves having to do this to get in touch with Chris. Some weens have also found themselves doing this to purposefully screw him up.
:* [[Weens]] – people who try and fail to annoy Chris.
:* [[Carpetbaggers]] - people who exploit Chris's infamy for personal gain.

; Why does the CWCki continue to refer to Chris by his old name and pronouns?
:*The simplest reason for this is '''consistency'''. The CWCki has thousands of articles, and it would be an impossible, arduous task to change every "he" to "she" throughout Chris's entire existence, plus it's effectively [[Retcon|historical revisionism]].
:*Some articles require the context of Chris's maleness. References to Chris's orientation and past hatred of [[gay]] men won't be as obvious if we didn't address Chris by his assigned gender. Same thing with atypical/feminine behavior (such as his high voice and use of "Gal-Pals"), and behavior considered creepy for guys but not so much for women (such as getting [[Megan|touchy-feely]]).
:*Using "he" pre-transition and "she" post-transition may seem like a fair compromise, but the exact beginning of Chris's transition is hard to define. It can be confusing on articles that cover Chris both before and after his transition, such as the [[Chris and]] series. Dissenting users have also suggested using "(s)he" or "they", but Chris doesn't use they/them pronouns either, and "(s)he" looks clunky.
:*Community consensus. YouTube and Twitter commentators overwhelmingly call Chris male, as do some [[Sachumo|documentarians]]. While Chris did receive a legal name/gender change, there's considerable debate in the community as to whether he is a genuine trans woman. CWC communities, such as [[Kiwi Farms]], have an unfortunate tendency to "misgender" trans people in general. [[Null]] said he refers to Chris as "he" because he "carries male genetics" and insisted that he was a straight male most of his life. Most Christorians use "he" for Chris, and the CWCki reflects this trend.
:* Relating to the above, his previous first names ('''Chris'''topher, '''Chris'''tian) and his current one ('''Chris'''tine) can all easily be shortened to just "Chris", "Chris-Chan" or "CWC", which is what he's mostly referred to as anyway regardless of pronouns.

==Miscellaneous==

; What does he smell like?
: As of 19 October 2019, [[Joey Vance|cannabis]]. Historical answers include "rotten watermelons" (according to [[Emily]]), a variant of the [[Collosal Chan|homeless person]] stench (according to [[Robert Simmons V]]) or, as some field agents have reported, 'body odor masked with gallons of [[Axe]]'. While in jail, it seemed as if his hygiene had improved, with [[Jail Letter - 16 November 2021|daily showers]] the norm, but by the time of the May 2023, it has deteriorated, to the point that one person stated he smelled of "[[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|pure shit]] I had to inhale very shallowly". The point is, [[Chris and health#Hygiene|Chris smells awful]].

; What's the deal with Chris's [[Heterochromia|eyes]]?
: According to Chris, his eyes were originally blue but he got pink eye in his right eye during high school and medication for it turned it green. His eyes are only faintly different and definitely not to the degree that they're depicted in his [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|comic form]]. A cursory examination of [[:File:0043-YoungChristopher2.jpg|this image]] demonstrates that he has had heterochromia since at least elementary school. Additionally, it's fairly common for people with blue or green eyes to have one eye of a slightly different hue.

; What's the deal with the striped shirts?
: Many of Chris's shirts were bought by [[Barbara Chandler|his mother]] from the Salvation Army and Goodwill.<ref>[[Mailbag 42|Mailbag #42]]</ref> Following Chris's introduction to the world of Internet trolling, [[Chris and fashion|his wardrobe went through several iterations]] before eventually settling on its current [[tomgirl]] form, but he has since purchased at least two simillar T-shirts to capitalise on the nostalgia, dubbed The Classic 2.0 and The Classic (Replica) by the CWCki.

; What's the deal with the [[Shirt#Wrist warmer|yellow thing]] on the back of the [[Medallion of Fail|medallion]] chain?
: It's a Wilson wrist warmer he wears because the chain irritates his skin,<ref>E-mail from Chris posted in old PVCC thread #162</ref> probably due to [[Wikipedia:Sensory defensiveness|sensory defensiveness]], a common [[autism|autistic]] symptom.

; Does Chris drink or do [[drugs]]?
: Chris was firmly against [[Tobacky|smoking]] and drug abuse. For much of his life, he was equally strongly opposed to [[alcohol|drinking]] as well, but a video of him drinking a [[semen|salty]]-tasting [[Long Island Iced Tea]] turned up in [[2009]] and he has since softened his stance, saying he is a "social drinker".<ref>[[Mailbag 16#Alcoholism]]</ref> He has since been known to drink [[6 June 2010|Budweiser]], [[100 2281|Kahlúa]] and vodka, but seems to drink only occasionally, or when encouraged by [[troll]]s. He also smoked marijuana with the [[Teen Troon Squad]]. He was legally required to abstain from any drugs or alcohol after being placed on Virginia's [[Chris and the law|Therapeutic Docket]] in late 2018 and early 2019.

; What's this about Jimmy Hill?
: [[Jimmy Hill]] was a trolling effort run by the Something Awful Sycophant Squad (S.A.S.S.), but disintegrated in [[November 2008]] at the same time the board collapsed. It was supposed to make Chris believe someone was stealing his [[Sonichu]] character, since possible theft of Sonichu seems to be one of the few things that gets him worked up into a fury. Chris stopped believing in Jimmy Hill some time after when he noticed the page never updated. This is one of the very few recorded examples of Chris realizing that someone was a troll without them openly declaring it. Despite this, he still has a grudge against Jimmy Hill, leaving him in the final version of [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]] from [[December 2009]].

: Of note, Jimmy Hill passed the "rights" to Sonichu in Europe to [[Liquid Chris|the TRUE and HONEST Christian Weston Chandler]]. Hill died in 2015.

; What do [[Megan]]/[[Michael Snyder]]/Old Gal-Pals/et. cetera think of Chris now that he spooned his mother?
: It is not known for certain what people from earlier in Chris's life make of his incestuous affair with his mother. Most of these people have moved on from Chris since then. Please do not attempt to contact them.

; Where does Chris currently publish new content?
: As of [[February 2025]] Chris's current [[YouTube]] channel is [https://www.youtube.com/@CwcvilleGuardian CwcvilleGuardian]. He posts on [[Twitter/X]] as [https://twitter.com/CPU_CWCSonichu CPU_CWCSonichu] and on [[Bluesky]] as [https://clearsky.app/cpujcwcsprime.bsky.social/history cpujcwcsprime.bsky.social]. He also makes occasional posts on the [[CWC Blog (Cwclight)|CWC Blog on Cwclight]], about once a month.

; Is Barbara dead?
: No, and if you have to ask that question she almost definitely isn't. Fake obituaries for Barb are [[Weening|fairly common]].

; Where can I learn more about this singular human anomaly?
: Well, right here at [[CWCki|this fine wiki]], of course. If you really want to induct yourself into the horrors of Chris, we would recommend starting with where it began for most of us: the [[Megan|Megan Saga and the release of the e-mail correspondence between the two]]. Other resources include:

:* [https://www.kiwifarms.st/ The Kiwi Farms], formerly the [[CWCki Forums]], where several Chrisorical figures such as [[Marvin]] have posted.
:* The CWCki's official [https://discord.com/invite/b5GU9cz discord server].
:* [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] (to be taken with a grain of salt)
:* [[Documentary|Documentaries]] available on YouTube
:* [https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu /r/ChrisChanSonichu], the largest Reddit community dedicated to Chris

CWCki:Frequently Asked Questions

2025-11-23T14:38:57Z

KennyOfHrub: /* Psychology */

[[File:0782-CWCSpread.JPG|thumb|Welcome to the world of [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris-Chan]].]]

'''Welcome, new Christorian.'''

New people are being initiated to the quirks and horrors of [[Chris]]'s world every day. Some of these people have simple questions that the veteran [[trolls|troll]] might be able to answer with the greatest of ease. However, people hate being asked the same questions time and time again, so this page shall serve as a quick database of some of the most common questions encountered.

All the questions can be answered in more detail than they appear here, which should be an incentive for you to go peruse the wiki and other resources to learn all you can about the Internet's favorite manchild.

''This page was last updated on 8 April 2025, but as the Christory constantly evolves, this page will have to follow.''
==Trolling==

; Is Chris a [[troll]]? Is the whole thing a hoax?
: '''No.''' The verified documentation on Chris and his entire life is far too complete and detailed for it to be a reverse-troll setup. There are news reports from his childhood confirming his autism (see [[Chris in the media]]). There are [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer|two]] [[University of Virginia#UVA student on Chris|different]] blogs about Chris's behavior that were published before Chris came to a wider attention on the Internet. [[Sonichu]] has existed since [[2000]]. Phone calls have been made to Chris's parents and his [[Rocky Shoemaker call|pastoral counselor]]. When Chris was first [[28 October 2011|arrested and convicted]] of a felony, he acted as he does online [[This is how the Trial went|even in court]], and accidentally [[Destruction Of Chris's House|set fire to]] [[14 Branchland Court|his house]] in real life as well. If you don't believe us, you can look up Chris's many [[Chris and the law|court records]], both civil and criminal.

: Chris's arrest for [[Affair with Mother|incest]] in August 2021 should put any speculation of his behavior being an act permanently to rest.

; How can you get off taunting an [[autistic]] <s>guy</s> person?
: The CWCki itself is not involved in any trolling; it merely documents Chris's life in detail. Most modern Chris-observers, having seen the [[Idea Guys|extreme damage]] that some trolls could wreak, hold a dim view of [[weening|contemporary trolling efforts]]. The motivations of Chris's trolls over the years has varied, but few had any interest in tormenting him simply for having a mental problem. Some former trolls have even [[BlueSpike#Today|expressed regret]] for taking things too far in their younger years.

: Even before the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] scandal, Chris has been notorious on the Internet as a [[Nudes|perverse]], [[Chris and Health#Hygiene|disgu]][[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|sting]], [[Chris and the Law|quarrelsome]], [[Chris and Anger|mean-spirited]], [[Chris and Reality|delusional]], [[Chris and his Ego|narcissistic]], [[Niggos|intol]][[Women's rights|erant]], [[Obesity|unfit]], [[Chris and death|unsympathetic]], [[Bob Chandler|ungrateful]], [[Manchester High School#Graduation|jealous]], [[The GAMe PLACe|kid-scaring]], [[List of Christian's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|troll-feeding]], [[Chris and Religion|heretical]], [[Death Threats|spiteful]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|cruel]], [[Autism Tutorial Extra|hate]][[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)|ful]], [[Chris and work|sullen]], [[Kick the Autistic|antagonistic]], [[Chris and Art|completely]] [[Chris and Writing|and]] [[Chris and Music|utterly]] [[Spanish|untalented]] [[Parody|thi]][[Things Chris has ripped off|ef]] and all-around failure who wastes his [[United States|countrymen]]'s hard-earned [[Monthly tugboat|tax money]] on [[video games]] and [[sex toys]] while contributing nothing to society (comics aside), despite those with more severe mental states living far more independently and successfully.

: On top of that, Chris was once incredibly responsive to trolling, adding fuel to the fire by producing many videos in which he [[tard rage|raged]] at the camera as a result of trolling; this no doubt gave many trolls significant motivation. While Chris was [[Chris and manipulation|manipulated]] into making many of these videos, he ultimately decided to create and publish them.

:However, before you want to inflict harm upon Chris and claim that Chris gives you [[Autism|autistics]] 'a bad name', please read the [[A-Logging]], [[Weening]] and [[Unholy Quintet]] articles.

; Why don't you try helping him instead?
: [[Vivitheg|Many]] [[Jackie|people]] [[Clyde Cash|better]] [[Alec Benson Leary calls|than]] [[Sarah May|you]] have tried over the years and they have all accomplished [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford|nothing]]. See the [[White knight]] article for reasons for and against ''trying'' to save Chris. Regardless of how hard you try, he refuses to listen. Even his [[Anna McLerran|actual friends]] could not help him. From 2018 onward, he managed to alienate nearly all of his IRL friends, instead preferring interactions with [[imaginary friends]], [[enablers]], and fans at [[conventions]]. He will only listen if you tell him what he wants to hear.

; Can I give suggestions on how next to troll Chris?
: '''All efforts to troll, seek out or otherwise contact Chris are ''very strongly discouraged'''''. The effects of Chris's [[Bob Chandler|father]]'s death, his [[Barbara Chandler|mother]]'s ill-health and, most recently, the [[Idea Guys]]' deliberately manipulative trolling operations against him have left Chris's grasp on [[Chris and reality|reality]] — and his well-being in general — tenuous at best, with various [[enablers]] making it even worse. Relating to this is how he is [[Weening#The Chris of today is nothing like his former self|now a very, ''very'' different person]] from who he was when the trolling was at its peak, and only sees such attempts to provoke him as indirect support for his current worldview; so it's not even worth bothering with if you're going into it expecting to get amusing reactions along the lines of the past. Times have changed; so keeping all this in mind, you'll be far better off just sticking with [[CWCki|casual observation]] and helping to [[CWCki:Improvement|document and provide information]] on developments and occurrences in Chris's life as they come.

==Psychology==

; Is he currently seeing a psychiatrist or therapist?
: '''Maybe.''' Chris was legally required in [[2018]], among other things, to attend psychological therapy as an alternative to [[Chris and the law#2018|conviction]] after trespassing. Since 23 April 2019, he has fulfilled this obligation and no longer has any professional help. Chris dismisses the idea of seeking professional help, preferring to [[A Moment With Dr Wolf Chris Chan and Greater Struggles|administer it to himself using Lego]]. See [[Chris and mental healthcare]].
; Is he really autistic?
: '''Yes.''' Based on a cursory [[Autism papers#Intake Survey|psychiatric survey]] from [[2004]], Chris was diagnosed with ''autistic disorder'' (DSM-IV 299.00) as a young child, and the same report backs up his claim. See [[Autism]]. However, his common qualifying phrase ''high-functioning'' means only that he is not [[slow-in-the-minds|mentally retarded]]. The phrase is not formally part of the diagnosis, and many autism advocates discourage its use.

; Does he have [[Asperger's syndrome]]?
: '''It depends''' on what counts as ''having'' Asperger's. He has never been formally diagnosed with it, he has never claimed to have it, and in fact, he angrily rejects the label. Among institutions that still distinguish between autism and Asperger's, of which many do not, Asperger's syndrome is distinguished from severer varieties of autism by average intelligence and adequate language ability, matching Chris. Dr Asperger's work was in German, and not known to Anglophone psychiatrists until the early [[1990s]]; Chris probably would have received this diagnosis instead if he had been born a few years later. Furthermore, the condition was removed from the modern ''DSM-5'' and replaced with the catch-all ''Autism Spectrum Disorder'', making the distinction completely meaningless.

; Is he [[Slow-in-the-minds|retarded]] or intellectually disabled?
: '''[[:File:Honor Roll I dont think so.jpg|Maybe,]].''' A more proper word for Chris is ''inept''. Even if Chris was to be considered intellectually disabled, it'll certainly be a mild or borderline intellectual disability. Despite there being a possibility, he still managed to graduate from [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|community college]] and obtain a [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license]]. He can read, write, do basic household chores, and operate electronic equipment. While his [[Chris and English|English]] skills aren't perfect, he has very few issues with basic sentence structure. Chris does understand the consequences of his actions to an extent. He has a consistent (albeit warped and [[Chris and his ego|self-serving]]) ethical system and recognizes when what he is doing is not working (though he chooses to pin the blame on [[Greene County Conspiracy|external]] [[trolls|forces]] or go about his way anyway). His foolishness is in that he has very little common sense, which may be attributed (along with the [[autism|obvious]]) to excessive parental sheltering, and that after years of Internet manipulation, his ability to distinguish [[Chris and reality|reality]] from fantasy has wasted away.

; What is Chris's IQ?
: '''That's inconclusive.''' In [[Mailbag 19]] and [[Mailbag 21]], he claimed to have taken an IQ test at a [[Chesterfield County]] institute, most likely as a teenager. He received an IQ of "150". In [[Mailbag 22]], a commenter pointed out that he may have taken the Cattell IQ test (150 on the Cattell is 130 on the standard scale), unless he was outright lying, which is most likely. An IQ of 130 is above average, but not genius material. Many autistic people also excel at pattern thinking, which is a key area of many IQ tests. Also, IQ doesn't measure [[Honor roll|what you've learned]], [[Kindness|empathy]], social skills, or other areas that count towards real-world success. Psychologists do not even agree on whether it's an objective measure of intelligence, with a common quip being that it "only measures how well you do on IQ tests." Even if Chris did have a high IQ, it hasn't done much for him in the real world.

; Is Chris schizophrenic?
: '''Probably not.''' While autism and schizophrenia share some symptoms, their development is nothing like each other. Autism is inborn and shows in early childhood, while schizophrenia usually appears well into adulthood. Schizophrenia's symptoms often deteriorate over time, while autism is normally constant throughout life (except for a few children who relapse into non-verbosity). <abbr title="Inability to distinguish reality from fantasy.">Psychosis</abbr> and confused language are common to both, but take different forms: schizophrenics may hear voices or otherwise hallucinate and think disjointedly (hence the name), while autists understand others' normal language literally, missing the subtext that something fictional is not meant to be taken seriously, and presuming their own thoughts automatically clear to others.

:Furthermore, Chris does distinguish between fantasy and reality, simply deluding himself into believing that the fantasy world is real on another [[dimension]]. Also, Chris's visions of that dimension come from [[meditation]] (read: daydreaming), not involuntary hallucinations.

==Sex==
; Is Chris an <abbr title="Involuntary celibate">incel</abbr>? If not, what's the deal with the love quest?
: Chris never used the word for himself, but his beliefs and actions overlapped significantly with what is now the incel community. The word ''incel'' only entered common use about [[2017]].<ref>[https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=incel Global search trends for ''incel'']</ref> Chris described himself long before this as a [[virgin with rage]], even bringing up the term in casual conversations with people he just met. He would speak of [[boyfriend-free girl]]s, the [[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]], and even a conspiracy that [[Virginia is for virgins|true love was illegal in his home state]].

: He viewed his search for a suitable mate as the [[Love Quest]], treating his search for a girlfriend like a video game. He wrote [[Saddest Heart in the World|poems]], [[I Want a Girlfriend for Christmas|letters to Santa]], and even [[So Need a Cute Girl|"Weird Al"-style parody songs]] about his biggest problem: that other [[JERKS]] (men) take all the pretty [[sweetheart]]s. He has lost his virginity to a [[Mia Hamm|prostitute]] and his only relationship that lead to sex was [[Affair with Mother|with his elderly mother]], not something you would consider a proper love life. His Love Quest only temporarly ended when he destroyed his libido through [[Chris and health#Hormone treatment|self-administered estrogen]] and [[polyamorous marriage|''married'']] his [[OC]]s by early 2018, but it seemed to resume in early 2021, the consequences of which we can see [[Jail Saga|ever]] [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#CVS|since]] [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Isabella's Italian Trattoria Restaurant|then]]. As of early 2025, he appears to be dating [[Flutter|a mysterious Finnish woman]].

; Why didn't he hire a prostitute earlier?
: For the majority of his [[love quest]], Chris refused to hire a hooker. The reasons varied: prostitutes are not [[TRUE and HONEST]] love, they are [[Chris and money|expensive]], and Chris is afraid of STDs<ref>[[Mumble 4|Mumble #4]]</ref>. His ideal sex partner would also do all the work around [[14 Branchland Court|the house]], give him her income to spend on video games, and otherwise serve as his replacement [[Barb|mother]]—all of which a prostitute would be unwilling to do. When some prostitutes were sent to his house in early [[2009]], he cried.<ref>[[Hooker incident]]</ref> However, as his thirties approached, he got more lenient about his policy towards hookers. He once tried to solicit the services of a prostitute by phone, and tried to get a discount by offering the chance of deflowering him and telling his life story; the prostitute hung up on him.<ref>[[Chris and sex|#Prostitution]]</ref> In [[April 2012]] though, Chris claimed on [[Facebook]] that he lost his virginity to [[Mia Hamm|a hooker]] who complimented him on the size of his penis.<ref>[[:File:Virginbreaker.png]]</ref>

; What is Chris's sexual orientation?
: This is a hotly debated point, and as of yet there is no consensus on this. For most of his adult life, Chris acted as though he was attracted to women. On the other hand, he clearly believes that previously-straight people can be turned gay, either by accident or through being tricked. In [[2018]], while under the [[Idea Guys]]' manipulative influence, Chris was [[brainwashed]] into believing he was [[bisexual]], and was [[polyamorous marriage|married to several of his (mostly male) fictional characters]], retaining these beliefs long after the Idea Guys were ousted, yet has made no attempts to get into a relationship with a real-life man. [[Jacob Sockness]] attempted to groom Chris into a relationship but Chris ultimately distanced himself from Sockness. Some consider that Chris is too immature to have earnest sexual attraction towards others (see ''Is Chris asexual?'', below.)

; Is he a [[Wikipedia:Furry fandom|furry]]?
: '''Yes.''' Chris had tweeted in [[2018]]  that he is one. Traditionally he would state that he did not consider himself to be one,<ref>[[Sarah_Reveals_Herself#Chris_tries_to_leave|Chris admits to Sarah May that he is slightly turned on by Rosechu, though he maintains he is not a furry.]]</ref> yet it was clear from an early period that he did enjoy [[:File:Chris-chan_Traced.JPG|porn]] of anthropomorphic characters, even [[Rule 34|drawing his own]] into [[Sonichu 8|his]] [[Giant Penis Comic|comics]]. He also identifies with [[Chris-Chan Sonichu|several]] [[Sonichu (character)|anthropomorphic]] [[Robbie|avatars]]. Although he does not regularly wear fur-suits, he did once dress up as [[ECV 00002|Chris-Chan Sonichu]], the anthropomorphic form he takes on his comic series, and has considered getting one in the recent years. He has also started following several furry artists and content creators on [[Youtube]] and [[Twitter]], such as AshCoyote, and has enjoyed a lot of furry fanart he has recieved from his [[True and Loyal fanbase]].

; Is he a [[pedofork|pedophile]]?
: '''No''', but people imply otherwise to troll him. One of the few kind things [[Mimms]] and [[Lucas]] said about Chris in a [[Mimms and Lucas Q&A|troll Q&A thread]] was that he probably wasn't a pedophile and that people are trying too hard with that. He ''has'' stated he would like to [[Mailbag 3#In which Chris advises Hitler to keep his Promises|lower his state's legal age of consent to sixteen]] and created a sexualized 14 year old Sonichu character in the form of [[Zapina]], but these actions are more likely due to a childish mindset and an inability to move past [[high school]] than latent pedophilia.

; Is Chris transgender?
: '''Yes.''' As of 2015, Chris identifies as [[transgender]]. He had explored his gender identity for years beforehand stemming from gender dysphoria issues, in 2011 identifying as a "tomgirl" (identifying as male and crossdressing as a woman); in 2014, identifying as [[August_2014_Facebook_Posts#Chris_comes_out...kinda|Intersex of Female Soul with Male Body, and a Tranny Cross-Dresser]] and as a lesbian; and identifying as female and transgender in 2015 when he began referring to himself as a "trans woman" and "Christine" and legally changed his name and gender in [[2016]]. Well before [[2011]], when Chris first called himself a tomgirl, he had been known to wear miniskirts, [[Muscle_bra|bras]], and panties. On multiple occasions, he had worn female clothing [[Forgot the Glitter|in public]] and had started wearing trans flag thigh-highs and bands more frequently during the [[Second Coming]].

; Is Chris asexual?
: This is another hotly contested issue to which there is no clear answer. Some claim that Chris is not truly interested in sexual relations, but feels that sex is something which a "grown up" is required to do. Chris's desire to lose his [[virgin with rage]] status may have simply been an urge to undergo what he saw as a traditional rite of passage into adulthood, although he has continued to seek out a sexual relationship even long after losing his virginity. It is clear that Chris's sex drive was atypical even before beginning hormone replacement therapy in [[2016]], evidenced by the fact that he did not discover [[masturbation]] until he was sixteen and even as an adult only engaged in the activity twice a week. On the other hand, much of Chris's adult life has been spent in the pursuit of a sex partner and his comic characters are [[Sonichu 8|highly sexual]]. It is worth noting that a moderately common autistic symptom is difficulty or inability to be intimate with another person. Many asexuals also possess a libido and can enjoy masturbation or sex; the difference lies in a lack of real attraction to other people.

; Did Chris really rape his mother?
: '''It's impossible to know for certain.''' Chris's detractors (and he has many) will vocally insist that he did, but there is no conclusive proof. Chris was only ever charged with incest, not rape, and there has been no definite confirmation of Barb having any mental incapacity. While there is plenty of [[Affair with Mother#Was it consensual?|compelling circumstantial evidence]] for both sides, ultimately only Chris and Barb can say for certain. Barb has never spoken publicly about it, and Chris is currently [[Lies|denying the incest itself ever took place]].

==Money and Work==

; Why does Chris call his disability check a "[[monthly tugboat]]"?
: The "tugboat" is one of Chris's [[CWC-isms]]; impenetrable mangled figures of speech that he either uses to avoid uncomfortable subjects or, in this case, because he thinks they are clever. "Tugboat" is derived from the phrase "Our ship has come in", referring to a fortuitous event. Whereas winning the lottery is like a large cruise ship coming in, for Chris, getting $1,000 a month for sitting on his ass is like a small boat—like a [[Wikipedia:Tugboat|tugboat]]—coming in for him.

; Has he ever had a [[job]] at all?
: He worked for [[Wendy's]] a few months in 2001, but he was fired for unknown reasons. He briefly sold knives for the multi-level marketing company [[Cutco]], which was his last true job (if you could call it that). During the [[Chris and business|Business Saga]] he was very active on Etsy, selling many custom-made Amiibos, Sonichu comics and so on, but he often sold them either at a loss or barely broke even, which resulted in the [[Financhu Crisis]]. He has also made plenty of [[commissions]] during the [[Everfree Northwest]] fundraiser and this has continued even after jail, with him making his custom medallions, selling literal rocks and making even more shitty commissions for the [[OfficialCWCMart]]. Some even speculate it's akin to being a sweatshop worker, but Chris enjoys doing it anyway, probably not even knowing it might be a real job.

; How much money does Chris make from his livestreams/Etsy shop?
: From watching his recent livestreams we can see that Chris typically receives between $600 - $700 in donations per stream. [[Praetor]]'s [[OfficialCWCmart|Etsy store]] sales have totaled well into the thousands of dollars, with individual [[Praetor Jail Art|jail art]] pieces selling for between $100 - $200 each, and some have even calculated their Etsy store to earn several thousands of bucks a month, though the exact revenue is unknown. It is generally speculated that Praetor takes a significant cut for themselves, though the exact details of their arrangement are not public knowledge. The only available info is from Chris, who claimed to get a measly $600 from a total of $4000 in sales during the [[Taser Call]].

==''Sonichu''==
; What's the deal with [[Sonic]], anyway?
: Chris has always liked family-friendly games in particular, and [[1993|many years ago,]] was one of 100 winners of a [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes|Sega contest]] which, through its grand prize of a $1000 {{w|KB Toys|Kay-Bee Toys}} shopping spree, allowed him to stock up on various ''Sonic'' titles. For some reason, the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series in general also appears to have certain qualities that attract autistic fans more than other game series.

; Where can I find the uncensored images from [[Sonichu 8|''Sonichu'' #8]]?
: For those who may be curious, they are located [[Sonichu 8#The uncensored scenes|here]].

; Will he ever draw more [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comics]]?
: Chris stopped drawing regular comics in [[February 2010]] with [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]]; since then, he has released issues #11 to #13 and partially completed issues #14 to #17; however, these later issues often only bear a slight resemblance to the traditional comics and are more about whatever trolling issues have been happening. While in jail, he produced some one-off drawings; see [[Praetor Jail Art]], but has since continued work on the issue #25, now renamed to [[Sonichu 0 HD|''Sonichu'' #0 HD]]. Judging from the contents of the message Chris has sent out to the winners of his [[CWC Art Contest]], he has also attempted to outsource the art for the comics to his unlucky fans. He also drew a cover for [[Sonichu 82|issue #82]].

==Contact Chris==
; I want to e-mail Chris and pretend to be [[Megan]]/[[Jimmy Hill]]/[[Jesus]]/[[Michael Snyder]]. Can I have his e-mail?
: He has had many emails over the years, but his most commonly used ones are @cwcvillegoddess and ChrisChanSonichu@aol.com, but Chris does not read e-mails from people he doesn't already know<ref>[[Kacey Call 23]]: "I don't even bother to open their e-mails. So I just expand on the e- on the sender's address and then add them to my block list."</ref>, and it's possible that Praetor has a strict control over these, judging from some of the info he has put out since.

; What is his dox?
: Chris's dox can be found [[NO D*** WAY, IMPOSTOR!!!|here]].

==The CWCki itself==
; Does the CWCki exaggerate or spin anything?
: The editors here try their hardest to paint an accurate picture of Chris's life, but that is sometimes difficult due to the subject matter and the intentional omission of information from trolls who were [[Manipulation|manipulating]] Chris. Many were CWCki editors themselves. This is especially true for the [[Classic Chris]] era.

: For various good reasons, the CWCki largely covers the Classic sagas from Chris's perspective: information presented here was what Chris acknowledges to be true. Trolls are merely players on the stage that is Chris's life. It is probably best to understand the world of Chris as he understands it, much as it is best to understand a fictional world from the point of view of its characters, rather than the underlying reality of it. In other words, while Chris's reactions to events are real and the documentation of the reactions are indeed real, the situations and characters that provoke these reactions are often contrived, especially when covering events prior to Bob's death.

: For example:

:* [[Clyde Cash]] was the fictitious persona of a single anonymous troll, but the CWCki treats him as if he ''were'' a real person because he was to Chris. We also treat each of his personas as separate people because they were to Chris.

:* We keep a single article on [[Blanca]] and not the multiple male trolls who played her.

:* [[Emily]] and [[Kim]] were played by the same woman, but the CWCki treats them as separate people because they were to Chris.

:* Celebrity trolls are obviously trolls impersonating celebrities – did you really think [[Billy Mays]] was involved in trolling?

: For transparency's sake, the CWCki discloses such discrepancies from reality using Protip boxes, troll disclosures, and other notices.

: Coverage of Modern Christory takes a more matter-of-fact approach, thanks to the ease of [[dox]]ing Internet trolls. Modern CWCki editors are also gradually transitioning classic articles away from the dramatized writing of yesterday, so those who prefer clarity are in luck.

; What's the deal with ''Chris and''? What is a saga?
: The CWCki has '''a few series that tie it all together'''. You can think of them as the skeleton, bloodstream, and nervous system of the site.
:* The [[Chris and]] series. This series is purely topical – it discusses subjects as they relate to Chris, regardless of the time period. These are the things that make Chris Chris. Such topics range from Chris's relationship with [[Chris and art|art]] and [[Video games|gaming]], to his [[health|physical]] and [[Coping|mental health]].
:* The [[Saga]] page. It describes the major events in Chris's life from the womb to the modern world, but still takes a topical approach, looking at arcs and happenings in Chris's existence.
:* The [[CWChronology]]: purely chronological as its name suggests. Here, you can learn Chris's entire story from start to now, even including events from before his conception.
; What happened to the tagline ''Where no shit is too minor''?
: The tagline was '''retired''' on 20 December 2019, '''because there was a significant increase in people trying to influence Chris'''. Many of them fall into one of the ''[[Unholy Quintet]]'':
:* [[White Knights]] – people who feel sorry for Chris, and try to help Chris, often without realising that getting Chris to halt his [[Chris and his Ego|self-destructive lifestyle]] is going to take a lot more than [[April 2017 Facebook posts#Chris explains why he won't get a job|a message]] on social media, or a [[Patreon]] donation.
:* [[A-Logging|A-logs]] – people who express disproportionate hatred for Chris, often wishing [[Destruction Of Chris's House|misery]] or physical harm on him.
:* [[Enablers]] – people who encourage Chris's negative habits. Some White Knights find themselves having to do this to get in touch with Chris. Some weens have also found themselves doing this to purposefully screw him up.
:* [[Weens]] – people who try and fail to annoy Chris.
:* [[Carpetbaggers]] - people who exploit Chris's infamy for personal gain.

; Why does the CWCki continue to refer to Chris by his old name and pronouns?
:*The simplest reason for this is '''consistency'''. The CWCki has thousands of articles, and it would be an impossible, arduous task to change every "he" to "she" throughout Chris's entire existence, plus it's effectively [[Retcon|historical revisionism]].
:*Some articles require the context of Chris's maleness. References to Chris's orientation and past hatred of [[gay]] men won't be as obvious if we didn't address Chris by his assigned gender. Same thing with atypical/feminine behavior (such as his high voice and use of "Gal-Pals"), and behavior considered creepy for guys but not so much for women (such as getting [[Megan|touchy-feely]]).
:*Using "he" pre-transition and "she" post-transition may seem like a fair compromise, but the exact beginning of Chris's transition is hard to define. It can be confusing on articles that cover Chris both before and after his transition, such as the [[Chris and]] series. Dissenting users have also suggested using "(s)he" or "they", but Chris doesn't use they/them pronouns either, and "(s)he" looks clunky.
:*Community consensus. YouTube and Twitter commentators overwhelmingly call Chris male, as do some [[Sachumo|documentarians]]. While Chris did receive a legal name/gender change, there's considerable debate in the community as to whether he is a genuine trans woman. CWC communities, such as [[Kiwi Farms]], have an unfortunate tendency to "misgender" trans people in general. [[Null]] said he refers to Chris as "he" because he "carries male genetics" and insisted that he was a straight male most of his life. Most Christorians use "he" for Chris, and the CWCki reflects this trend.
:* Relating to the above, his previous first names ('''Chris'''topher, '''Chris'''tian) and his current one ('''Chris'''tine) can all easily be shortened to just "Chris", "Chris-Chan" or "CWC", which is what he's mostly referred to as anyway regardless of pronouns.

==Miscellaneous==

; What does he smell like?
: As of 19 October 2019, [[Joey Vance|cannabis]]. Historical answers include "rotten watermelons" (according to [[Emily]]), a variant of the [[Collosal Chan|homeless person]] stench (according to [[Robert Simmons V]]) or, as some field agents have reported, 'body odor masked with gallons of [[Axe]]'. While in jail, it seemed as if his hygiene had improved, with [[Jail Letter - 16 November 2021|daily showers]] the norm, but by the time of the May 2023, it has deteriorated, to the point that one person stated he smelled of "[[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|pure shit]] I had to inhale very shallowly". The point is, [[Chris and health#Hygiene|Chris smells awful]].

; What's the deal with Chris's [[Heterochromia|eyes]]?
: According to Chris, his eyes were originally blue but he got pink eye in his right eye during high school and medication for it turned it green. His eyes are only faintly different and definitely not to the degree that they're depicted in his [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|comic form]]. A cursory examination of [[:File:0043-YoungChristopher2.jpg|this image]] demonstrates that he has had heterochromia since at least elementary school. Additionally, it's fairly common for people with blue or green eyes to have one eye of a slightly different hue.

; What's the deal with the striped shirts?
: Many of Chris's shirts were bought by [[Barbara Chandler|his mother]] from the Salvation Army and Goodwill.<ref>[[Mailbag 42|Mailbag #42]]</ref> Following Chris's introduction to the world of Internet trolling, [[Chris and fashion|his wardrobe went through several iterations]] before eventually settling on its current [[tomgirl]] form, but he has since purchased at least two simillar T-shirts to capitalise on the nostalgia, dubbed The Classic 2.0 and The Classic (Replica) by the CWCki.

; What's the deal with the [[Shirt#Wrist warmer|yellow thing]] on the back of the [[Medallion of Fail|medallion]] chain?
: It's a Wilson wrist warmer he wears because the chain irritates his skin,<ref>E-mail from Chris posted in old PVCC thread #162</ref> probably due to [[Wikipedia:Sensory defensiveness|sensory defensiveness]], a common [[autism|autistic]] symptom.

; Does Chris drink or do [[drugs]]?
: Chris was firmly against [[Tobacky|smoking]] and drug abuse. For much of his life, he was equally strongly opposed to [[alcohol|drinking]] as well, but a video of him drinking a [[semen|salty]]-tasting [[Long Island Iced Tea]] turned up in [[2009]] and he has since softened his stance, saying he is a "social drinker".<ref>[[Mailbag 16#Alcoholism]]</ref> He has since been known to drink [[6 June 2010|Budweiser]], [[100 2281|Kahlúa]] and vodka, but seems to drink only occasionally, or when encouraged by [[troll]]s. He also smoked marijuana with the [[Teen Troon Squad]]. He was legally required to abstain from any drugs or alcohol after being placed on Virginia's [[Chris and the law|Therapeutic Docket]] in late 2018 and early 2019.

; What's this about Jimmy Hill?
: [[Jimmy Hill]] was a trolling effort run by the Something Awful Sycophant Squad (S.A.S.S.), but disintegrated in [[November 2008]] at the same time the board collapsed. It was supposed to make Chris believe someone was stealing his [[Sonichu]] character, since possible theft of Sonichu seems to be one of the few things that gets him worked up into a fury. Chris stopped believing in Jimmy Hill some time after when he noticed the page never updated. This is one of the very few recorded examples of Chris realizing that someone was a troll without them openly declaring it. Despite this, he still has a grudge against Jimmy Hill, leaving him in the final version of [[Sonichu 10|''Sonichu'' #10]] from [[December 2009]].

: Of note, Jimmy Hill passed the "rights" to Sonichu in Europe to [[Liquid Chris|the TRUE and HONEST Christian Weston Chandler]]. Hill died in 2015.

; What do [[Megan]]/[[Michael Snyder]]/Old Gal-Pals/et. cetera think of Chris now that he spooned his mother?
: It is not known for certain what people from earlier in Chris's life make of his incestuous affair with his mother. Most of these people have moved on from Chris since then. Please do not attempt to contact them.

; Where does Chris currently publish new content?
: As of [[February 2025]] Chris's current [[YouTube]] channel is [https://www.youtube.com/@CwcvilleGuardian CwcvilleGuardian]. He posts on [[Twitter/X]] as [https://twitter.com/CPU_CWCSonichu CPU_CWCSonichu] and on [[Bluesky]] as [https://clearsky.app/cpujcwcsprime.bsky.social/history cpujcwcsprime.bsky.social]. He also makes occasional posts on the [[CWC Blog (Cwclight)|CWC Blog on Cwclight]], about once a month.

; Is Barbara dead?
: No, and if you have to ask that question she almost definitely isn't. Fake obituaries for Barb are [[Weening|fairly common]].

; Where can I learn more about this singular human anomaly?
: Well, right here at [[CWCki|this fine wiki]], of course. If you really want to induct yourself into the horrors of Chris, we would recommend starting with where it began for most of us: the [[Megan|Megan Saga and the release of the e-mail correspondence between the two]]. Other resources include:

:* [https://www.kiwifarms.st/ The Kiwi Farms], formerly the [[CWCki Forums]], where several Chrisorical figures such as [[Marvin]] have posted.
:* The CWCki's official [https://discord.com/invite/b5GU9cz discord server].
:* [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] (to be taken with a grain of salt)
:* [[Documentary|Documentaries]] available on YouTube
:* [https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu /r/ChrisChanSonichu], the largest Reddit community dedicated to Chris

'''Christine Weston Chandler''', previously known as '''Christian Weston Chandler''' (born: '''Christopher Weston Chandler'''; [[Chris's birthday|24 February]] [[1982]]) is a {{Age|1982|2|24}}-year-old [[Autism|autistic]], [[Chris and mental healthcare|mentally ill]],<ref>Confirmed by placement in the [[Therapeutic Docket]].</ref> [[JERKS|misandristic]] and [[Women's rights|misogynistic]] [[Chris and art|cartoonist]], [[YouTube]]r, [[Chris and the law|criminal]], former [[virgin with rage]], current self-proclaimed [[CPU Blue Heart|deity]], and [[Affair with Mother|literal motherfucker]]. He is commonly referred to by his nickname '''Chris-Chan''' or '''Chris Chan''', by his initials '''CWC''', or simply the gender-neutral '''Chris'''. He nowadays looks kind of like a cartoon version of {{w|Benjamin Franklin}} come to life, and is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented lolcows in Anglophone Internet culture – if not one of the most well-documented people in history.

Some would consider Chris to be a celebrity, but he hasn't sold a multi-platinum [[Chris and music|album]], nor has he been awarded with an [[Chris and cinematography|Oscar]]. Instead, he is the [[Things Chris has ripped off|creator]] of the infamous webcomic ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'', which ostensibly tells the story of an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] and his [[sweetheart]] [[Rosechu]] and their adventures with the [[Chaotic Combo]]. In practice, the webcomic really serves as [[Chris and coping#Power fantasies|wish fulfillment]] for Chris himself, allowing him to express his dissatisfaction with how [[Mary Lee Walsh|the faculty at school and college]] didn't acknowledge [[Honor roll|what he saw as an exemplary academic performance]] [[Count Graduon|when he graduated]], along with his frustration over [[Love Quest|being unable to find a romantic partner]]; as such, the book let him redirect his [[Chris and anger|anger]] toward [[Jerkop|the people who]] [[Manajerks|impeded his journey]], casting them as villains and himself as [[List of unheroic protagonist actions|a true Campbellian hero]] in his narrative. After completing his education, Chris was unemployed for most of his adult life, making a living off of [[Monthly tugboat|welfare]] and [[Patreon|donations]] from his webcomic's [[True and Loyal Fanbase]].

In late [[2007]], he became [[Chris and the Internet|Internet]]-famous when images of him at [[The GAMe PLACe|a tabletop gaming store]] leaked out to the {{w|Something Awful}} message boards. Upon discovery, Chris was mocked for his [[Chris and fashion|odd fashion sense]] and [[Obesity|oafish appearance]], and images of Chris at the store soon spread to places like [[4-cent_garbage.com|4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and in the process, many [[trolls]] were exposed to his webcomic for the first time, propelling Chris to stardom. Initial fascination was spurred on by his [[Chris and art|childlike artwork]], his signature homemade [[Medallions|Sonichu medallion]] that he wore in public, and his history of loitering in [[Attraction Locations|public places]] while literally holding up a [[Attraction Sign|sign]] asking women to talk to him. [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|His reaction to the ensuing mockery]] led to a cycle of [[Honest Content|Chris revealing more disturbing facts about himself]] and [[Chris and manipulation|trolls going to greater and greater lengths to uncover more knowledge about this strange individual]]. Thus, Chris's life began to spiral out of control with the advent of organized trolling, [[Chris and...|armchair psychological analysis]] from bewildered onlookers, and some truly bizarre antics from Chris that continue to this day, which would influence the development of the webcomic whenever he got around to updating it.

Chris's most notable period of activity on the Internet occurred between [[2007]] and [[2010]] – a period now dubbed [[Saga#Classic Chris Era (27 October 2007 to 20 March 2010)|the "Classic Era"]] by modern Christorians – in which he was repeatedly {{w|Catfishing|catfished}} by trolls pretending to be [[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|romantic interests]], and he lashed out against arch-enemy [[Clyde Cash]], the leader of the most notable group of trolls in his life: [[Trolls#The Miscreants|The Miscreants]]. In this time, [[Julie Reveals Herself|he was duped by]] [[BlueSpike|a sadistic 13-year-old]] [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|into stuffing his medallion up his ass]], [[Liquid Chris|he had his identity stolen by a far more talented individual]], [[Asperchu|and he saw ''Sonichu'' mercilessly spoofed by a webcomic team that designed a story to piss him off]], among other misadventures. However, he eventually decided to sign off from the Internet at the end of this period, seemingly wising up to his dang dirty trolls. When he inevitably returned to the limelight a few months later in 2011, he was not the same. [[Tomgirl Pictures|Chris began to experiment with crossdressing, calling himself a "Tomgirl"]], before eventually coming out as [[transgender]] in late [[2014]].

From here, Chris's Internet life stayed relatively normal (by his standards), despite his shift in gender identity, his father's death (which led to the retirement of the Miscreants), [[28 October 2011|a hit-and-run case]], [[2014 house fire|the accident that caused his house to burn down]], and [[26 December 2014|an incident where he maced an employee at a GameStop store]] [[Sonic Boom Protests|over the color of Sonic's arms]]. Things changed when two new sets of trolls – known as the [[Idea Guys]] and the [[Teen Troon Squad]] – [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwashed]] him with increasingly-insane beliefs (such as the idea that he and both of his parents are [[Sonichu (species)|half-Sonichu]] or [[Rosechu (species)|half-Rosechu]]), culminating in [[Chris and reality|Chris's revelation]] that he was [[CPU Blue Heart|a goddess]] meant to bring about [[Dimensional Merge|a convergence of dimensions]] between [[Dimensions#C-197|the world shown in his webcomic]] and our world, effectively starting a doomsday cult around what began as a silly, self-indulgent ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and ''[[Pokémon]]'' crossover. Afterward, Chris used [[Messiah complex|this delusion]] as an elaborate [[Chris and coping|coping]] mechanism while he continued his self-destructive habits.

Despite the trolls in question being driven out by the effort of the [[Guard Dogs]] trying to keep Chris from going further down a path of ruination (and to keep him from embarrassing himself any more), he chose to keep clinging to these unhealthy and downright absurd beliefs. All the while, his [[Chris and health|physical]] and [[Chris and mental healthcare|mental health]] withered away, and [[Financhu Crisis|money became a serious issue for the Chandler household]], while his mother wasn't long for the world, all of which led Chris to retreat even further into his fantasies. It got to the point where [[Spirit possession|he pretended to be possessed by various fictional characters]] on a regular basis, with one nearly year-long period of "possession" by Sonichu serving as a way for Chris to cope with the fact that he wasn't able to attend [[BABSCon|two ''My Little Pony'' conventions]] cancelled during the [[COVID-19]] pandemic.

The point of no return was finally crossed in [[2021]], after [[Incest Call|leaked audio]] revealed that [[Affair with Mother|he had several incestuous encounters with his mother]], which forcibly evicted him from [[14 Branchland Court|his own home]] and sent him to [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], which became his most publicized incident in years. During that time, [[Jail Communications|letters from jail]] illustrate that he went even deeper into his own fantasies by believing himself to be the second coming of {{w|Jesus|Jesus Christ}}. Chris was later transferred to the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution for three months before returning to jail, until he was released in [[March 2023]]. After spending a few months in the [[Gateway Homes|group home]] in Chesterfield County, he was bought a house in [[Lynchburg and Big Island, VA#Big Island|Big Island]], where he lives to this day. Chris remains active on [[Twitter]], [[Bluesky]], and [[YouTube]], and (un)fortunately, he shows no signs of stopping.

There has never been an Internet personality quite like Chris-Chan, thanks to the unique circumstances shaping his peculiar behavior and subsequently leading to his prominence online, and there may never be another quite like him – he is truly one of a kind. It is the dedicated mission of [[CWCki|this very wiki]] to chronicle his life in ridiculous detail, and if you want to go down the seemingly bottomless rabbit hole with us, then you should probably start by reading this page. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long ride, and the end is nowhere in sight.

==Overview==
{{Protip|The official CWCki policy is to use masculine pronouns to describe Chris, even after transitioning, for the sake of avoiding reader confusion. More details on this subject can be read [[Transgender|here]].}}

[[File:Chris BronyCon18 with Sonichu.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Chris in [[July 2018]], posing with a fan cosplaying as Sonichu at [[BronyCon]].]]

Chris is a cowardly, autistic, self-identified [[Transgender|transwoman]] with delusional tendencies who has been allowed – by his parents, [[Barbara Chandler]] and the deceased [[Bob Chandler]] – to eternally live like a child, amassing [[toys]] and [[video games]] into a single [[room]] in his parents' [[14 Branchland Court|house]]. Even into his forties, Chris remains so comfortable in his protected existence that he refuses to conform to societal norms, something that already doesn't come naturally to autistic folks. He has regularly demonstrated trouble displaying acceptable [[Love Quest|public]] [[Chris and the law|behavior]], recognizing when he needs to [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|use the washroom]], and using his time to [[Sonic Boom Protests|contribute]] [[Dimensional Merge|to]] [[Twitter|society]] in any meaningful way. Although the public school system forced Chris to face [[reality]], graduation has allowed him to stay indoors and avoid taking part in typical civilian activities, opting instead to stick to the comfort of living at home and subsisting off of taxpayer dollars. Due to this avoidance of the outside world, Chris hasn't held a steady [[Chris's resume|job]] [[Wendy's|since 2001]] (commissions and multi-level marketing aside, although it can be argued that his work for [[Praetor]] can be considered one), and he hasn't been employed for more than a few months in his whole life. It is likely Chris will never get a job again thanks to Patreon, the tugboat, the <s>begging</s> generous donations, and the fact he has flat out said his autism prevents him from getting a job (in spite of there being many social services available to help people with disabilities find work). Chris has had shockingly few meaningful relationships with people in a social setting outside of his parents, although he does manage to make friends with people who share his interests in nerd and LGBT culture.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (Marvin)#Perspective on Chris's social life]]</ref>

Chris is completely obsessed with his OC and the associated comic, to the point that he has hand-crafted several [[medallions]] in Sonichu's shape. Between February [[2004]] and [[March 2010]], Chris was rarely seen or photographed without one of these totems, even wearing them in his [[:Image:License.jpg|driver's license photo]] and to his [[college]] graduation; the medallion disappeared for a time, but returned in [[September 2010]]. At the same time, he was completely convinced that everyone wants to learn about Sonichu, and that the only reason [[Nintendo]], Sega, and [[Sony]] haven't approached him about making ''Sonichu'' games is that they're either tough negotiators, or that his chances are being ruined by trolls working for them. For a while, Chris had operated an eBay shop where he would make and sell these medallions, including Sonichu, Rosechu, Blake, and even custom character options. These were sold for $30 apiece. After the eBay shop became a mild success, he moved to Etsy, but his laziness got the best of him and he lost the shop after nine months in business, due to failing to fulfill orders.

[[File:CWC Cycle.png|thumb|right|A useful tool for predicting Christory.]]

[[File:SympathyForChris.png|thumb|left|An approximate graph which correlates knowledge about Chris to sympathy towards him.]]

Chris used to absolutely hate [[homos|gay men]], and communicated this with such intensity that observers were easily convinced he was simply terrified of becoming gay himself. He cannot bear to look at another man's [[pickle|penis]], and he stared at [[Sailor Moon Poster of Fail|a ''Sailor Moon'' poster]] to keep himself straight.<ref>[[Chris Destroys His Vibrator]]</ref> Chris's words do not always align with his actions; throughout his early Internet history, he appeared to be deeply insecure about his gender and sexuality. Even prior to his gender transition, he has [[Semen#Recycling|swallowed his own semen]], [[Sports bra photo series|worn a bra]], and only reined in his [[Tomgirl Pictures|tendency to proudly crossdress]] because his elderly mother intensely disapproved. While these actions do not indicate homosexuality outright, they do question the validity of Chris's own judgments on his sexual orientation. Surprisingly, however, his homophobia seemed to have little basis in his religious beliefs, as he had not noticed Leviticus 18:22, which condemns homosexuality, until he saw it on a 2009 episode of ''[[Family Guy]]''.<ref>[[CWC with Bible - Leviticus]]</ref> His homophobia did not extend to lesbians, whom he is aroused by. Over time, Chris dropped his homophobic tendencies, [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|apologized in 2015]] and supports what he calls the [[SLGBTQ]] spectrum. In [[2018]], the [[Idea Guys]] [[brainwashed]] Chris into identifying as bisexual, although it's likely that this just as much a matter of Chris coming to terms with his own sexuality as it was the result of manipulation.

His adult life has been largely defined by his goals of developing ''Sonichu'' into a hit media franchise to find financial success (or at least get his [[debt]]s under control), his [[Love Quest]] to obtain a "[[boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free]], 18-[''his current age'']-year old, caring, [[tobacky|smoke-free]], non-[[alcohol]]ic [[Chris and race|white]] girl" to make into a "[[Sweetheart from the Ground-Up|sweetheart from the ground-up]]," and, beginning from 2011, his gender identity as a [[tomgirl]] and later a lesbian transwoman. Later, Chris developed a [[Messiah complex]], believing himself to be [[Chris and religion|a reincarnation of Jesus Christ]] that is destined to facilitate a [[Dimensional Merge]] between fiction and reality.

In short, Chris's story is one that seems fated [[Chris and Death#Chris himself (1982–)|not to have a happy ending]], with his life perhaps serving as a cautionary tale in the age of the Internet. A tale of [[Borb|bad parenting]], [[Chris and socialization|social isolation]], [[Slow-in-the-minds|gullibility]], [[Chris and his ego|narcissism]], [[Chris and work|laziness]], [[Chris and hypocrisy|hypocrisy]], [[Chris and sex|sexual deviancy]], and most importantly, a tale of the world witnessing in real-time the slow, painful degradation of another human being.

[[Image:093-CWCtoon.jpg|thumb|right|100px|[[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris's hand-drawn representation of himself.]]]]

Christian Weston Chandler has a wide array of names he has given himself. He was born Christopher Weston Chandler, but [[Christopher's name change|changed]] to "Christian" at the behest of the "[[Leonard Bearstein|mall conductor bear]]" that misheard his name, which he interpreted as a sign from God. During the mid-2000s, Chris adopted the nickname "Chris-Chan," a play on his surname and the {{w|Japanese honorifics#Chan|Japanese honorific suffix ''-chan''}}, which according to Wikipedia "is used for young children, close friends, babies, grandparents and sometimes female adolescents." Chris was exposed to this honorific through [[anime]] shows like ''{{w|Crayon Shin-chan}}'' and ''{{w|Super Milk Chan}}''. The name "Chris-Chan" is often mistakenly spelled without a hyphen as "Chris Chan," as if Chris had named himself after {{w|Jackie Chan}}. [[Autism|Unusually]], before his gender transition Chris would often refer to himself by his full name, or if he was feeling especially formal as "Christopher Christian Weston Chandler." He is [[Chris and his ego|unusually proud]] of his initials "CWC," and often incorporates them into his creations and various puns on the word "quick." Examples include [[CWCville]], [[A CWC Audition]] and [[CWC Dare]].

Shortly after declaring himself a [[transgender]] lesbian, Chris started introducing himself as "Christine." In May 2016, he successfully filed for another name change to "Christine Weston Chandler."<ref>[[:File:Court Record - 2016 Name Change from Christian to Christine (Chris, CL16000067-00).png]]</ref> He then followed up by filing to alter the description for sex on his driver's license to female.<ref>[[:File:Christine license.jpg]]</ref> He now signs his name with "heart i's." Court records refer to him as Christine Chandler,<ref>[[:File:Court Record, Albemarle, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18004278-00).png]]</ref><ref>[[:File:Court Record, Charlottesville, 23Mar2018, Trespass After Forbidden (Christine Chandler, GC18003632-00).png]]</ref> except for civil [[debt]] cases, in which he hadn't updated his name change information with plaintiffs.<ref>[[:Image:Court Record - 2019 Midland Funding Debt Case, Garnishment (Chris, GV18000451-01).png]]</ref> [[CWCki|This wiki]], however, refers to him as Chris for consistency.

[[File:Cwc bronycon 2017 1.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Chris first identified by the name Christine in late 2014 before getting a legal name-change in 2016.]]

Chris's nickname in his high school [[Spanish]] classes was "Ricardo," and long after then he would still translate his own name to "Ricardo Weston Chandler" when writing or speaking in Spanish, likely due to his ignorance of the fact that you generally don't replace your own name with something completely different when speaking in another language. At times he would go so far as to announce himself as "Christopher Christian 'Ricardo' Weston Chandler," or variants thereof, to identify himself precisely. In recent times, Chris has forgone stating his middle name, former names, and Spanish nickname in videos (Chris has never come up with a feminine counterpart to his "Ricardo" nickname, or any other Spanish-sounding replacement.).

Occasionally, Chris would use the names of his characters to refer to himself, most notably his evil twin, [[Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc]], and of course, Sonichu. In his comics, Chris has the ability to transform into an [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]], named [[Chris-Chan Sonichu]]. As Chris grew even more unhinged in 2017 and fell under the [[Idea Guys]]' sway in 2018, he would conflate himself even further with his fantastic inventions to the point where he unofficially added "Sonichu" to the end of his name (although this is not recognized as a legal name change, unlike "Christian" or "Christine" in previous years), to account for his later belief that he is actually half-Sonichu in real life following several rounds of brainwashing. As of the Jail Saga, he calls himself "Jesus Christ-ine Weston Chandler Sonichu Prime", to account for him being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, sometimes even saying Jesus as "Hayy-zeus", probably as a botched attempt to sound Spanish, and sometimes shortening the name to "Christ-ine". And yes, [[Animate! Raleigh#Aqua Teen Hunger Force panel|he actually introduces himself as Jesus Christ in public]]. Other modern names for himself include [[CPU Blue Heart]] and [[Night Star]], his self-inserts for the ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'' and ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchises respectively. In contexts when he wants to be especially grandiose, he might append his various fictional alter egos to his name, much as he would list his former names in the past.

Only a few of the names commonly used to refer to Chris were not invented by Chris himself. One of the most notable ones is "Chrissy," popularized by [[YouTube#Fan archives and leaks|Arjen Van Dierten]] oddly enough, trying to mockingly feminize Chris's name seemed to predict his eventual interest in crossdressing and later interest in becoming transgender. [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], which was derived from Chris's IBAChandler [[YouTube]] account, was popularized by [[Liquid Chris]], [[CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!!|much to Chris's angst]]. Less notably, there is also "Solid Chris," used by some to differentiate him from Liquid in the tradition of [[Metal Gear|a certain video game series]]. Certain A-Loggers have been known to refer to Chris as "Satan's Agent on Earth." Users of [[Kiwi Farms]] have coined the term "Classic Chris" to refer to Chris before Bob's death and/or before the [[Tomgirl Saga]], with "Modern Chris" being used to describe his more recent antics.

[[Image:0147-CWCsMilkcapsAcrossTime.jpg|240px|thumb|The evolution (or decay, depending upon how you see things) of Chris-chan... in a {{w|Pogs|pog}} form (yes, those are homemade pogs). Top: Chris '94, '95, '96. Bottom: '97, '98', '99.]]

Christopher Weston Chandler was born on 24 February 1982 at {{w|Martha Jefferson Hospital}} in [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]], [[Virginia]].<ref name="WikiProfile">[[Chris's Wikipedia profile]]</ref> His parents, [[Borb|Robert and Barbara]], worked as an engineer at Western Electric (later General Electric) and an office worker at Virginia Power, respectively. Although little is known about Chris's toddler years, the [[Autism papers]] revealed that his linguistic abilities were subpar, which became his first sign of [[autism]]. Despite this, Chris claims his first word, "monkey," was spoken at just 6 weeks old,<ref name="Wikipedia early">[[User:ChrisChanSonichu profile#His Early Years - Birth to 1992]]</ref> and he remains proud of this feat into adulthood, regardless of how obviously unlikely and physically impossible it is to be true – the language centers in the human brain literally cannot grasp English at 6 weeks, disregarding infantile vocal chords.

An [[abusive babysitter]], who was alone with Christopher every day for years,<ref>[[:Image:Cole 07-03-06-3.PNG|6 March 2007 email from Cole to Chris, page 3]]</ref> allegedly locked him in a toy room at an early age after turning all the lights off, an event he described as being immensely traumatic for him.<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> (Chris apparently missed the irony of the fact that he regularly locked himself in a room, surrounded by toys, for much of his adult life.) He once identified this confinement as the source of his autism (which is wishful thinking on Chris's part, considering that autism is a genetic condition that isn't triggered by external trauma). Between the ages of 1 and 5, Chris did not speak at all, and beginning in 1987, had to visit the [[University of Virginia]] and [[James Madison University]] for speech therapy,<ref>[[November 2025 social media posts##NoToPaxil]]</ref> the ladder of which being where he met his first male friend [[Joshua Martinez]]. He was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, with the doctor projecting (at least according to Chris) that he would never make it to high school, much less be able to write his own name.<ref>[[Aspergers (CWCipedia article)]]</ref> However, Chris was able to meet these cognitive milestones in time.

During the [[1980s]], Christopher was playmates with [[Sarah Nicole Hammer]], one of his first friends. In one of the anecdotes that he's written about her (which are few and far between), Chris indicated that Sarah once convinced him that {{w|Casper the Friendly Ghost}} lived in the crawlspace under her house. When he crawled in there to look, she locked him in<ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares#Memories of childhood|Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares, page 4]]</ref> in a stunning display of their friendship, beginning Chris's lifelong career of getting trolled. Apparently, he doesn't hold any hard feelings over it (possibly just because she's a pretty girl – if a [[JERKS|guy]] or an [[Mary Lee Walsh|ugly girl]] did that to him, Chris would [[Death threats|swear vengeance]]).

Chris spent the [[1990s|1990-1991]] school year in the fourth grade at [[Nathanael Greene Elementary School]], until his parents pulled him out of classes over a mysterious dispute. Chris claims that he was forcefully restrained by the school's faculty, who recorded his screams,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007]]</ref> and that he was made to sit on the lap of the [[Bruce Johnson|principal]], an experience that supposedly inspired his homophobia. Chris later proclaimed that the abuse from the staff was the most traumatic experience of his life. It's possible that Chris's opinions about these events are colored more by his parents' attitudes than his own memories. The issue went to court, with Greene County seeking to have Chris sent to a "special school," which Bob and Barbara likely interpreted to mean a nut-house. Chris was homeschooled through the 5th grade during these proceedings. While being homeschooled, the animatronic bear [[Leonard Bearstein]] misheard Christopher's first name and called him "Christian," which inexplicably convinced Christopher to later have his name legally changed. When his family exhausted all legal recourse, Chris and his father relocated to [[Richmond]] so that Chris could continue his education in a different school system, starting with the sixth grade at [[Providence Middle School]].<ref name="Wikipedia early" /> He described his time there as pleasant, although he was often bullied by his classmates. His teacher, [[Virginia Jeanine Sanford]], helped him to develop social skills and cope with bullying, and Chris later called her the most influential person in his life.

At age 11, Chris entered and won the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]]. On his 12th birthday, he enjoyed a $1,000 shopping spree as his prize. WVIR-TV's coverage of the event focused on Chris's autism, regarding the contest win as a worthy accomplishment due to his mental condition. Chris put footage from this newscast on [[YouTube]] long before he was known to the general public, and it remains the most solid evidence that he is not an elaborate troll. This incident is often cited as the beginning of Chris's tendency to use his autism as leverage for special treatment, as well as his fascination with toys and video games at the expense of more mature pursuits. It has also led Chris to constantly enter contests in hopes of winning big (or else [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|becoming infuriated and belligerent to the winners]] when he loses).

Chris spent much of his time in [[Manchester High School|high school]] playing video games at home, reading ''[[Goosebumps]]'' novels, and hanging out with his "[[gal pal]]s" and "[[Joseph Herring|friend]]" at school (though as it turned out, many of these gal-pals were arranged friendships). It was at this time that he first put his "creative talents" to use, with the inventions of [[Bionic the Hedgehog]] and Sonichu, the latter of which was created for a class project simply because he couldn't use [[Chris and copyright|copyrighted characters]].<ref>[[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]], [https://web.archive.org/web/20161008083333/http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_7/Page_22]</ref> (The irony that Chris's own solution to that problem was to merge two copyrighted characters into a new character is somehow still lost on him, even to this day.) After inventing his ''magnum opus'' with the character of Sonichu, Chris began to incorporate his [[OCs|original character]] into everything that he could, although his passion for his character wouldn't truly surface until college.

Chris claims to have been on the [[honor roll]], and during this time acquired the true source of his powers, his [[Amnyfest Ring]]. Because the art award he wanted was given to someone else, Chris became despondent and stormed out crying during his [[Manchester High School#Graduation|high school graduation]]. He honestly thought he deserved the award more than anyone else because he worked on it "so hard" despite his autism, ignoring the likelihood that the artistic achievements of his peers were simply better. Another reason for his sorrow was his fear that he might soon have to grow up and start acting like an adult, a phase of his life that his parents had not properly prepared him for.<ref>[[:Image:0567-GraduationNote2.jpg|DVD, graduation note 2]]</ref> Evidently, this fear was unfounded.

Since leaving high school and the happiest years of his life, Chris has been unwilling and unable to progress in any other aspect of his life, and has unfortunately even regressed in several key areas as he has gotten older. He remains trapped in a childish, Year [[2000]] [[Time Void|time-stasis]], as he believes that whatever he was doing at the time was what helped him attract female companions. That his high school gal-pals have moved on and married real adult men with careers is of little consequence to him. [[Chris and nostalgia|Chris still pines for "better days"]] in spite of his current belief system hypothetically leaving him in a better place than he ever was in high school. As you might imagine, this is precisely because things didn't get much better for Chris after finishing school.

[[Image:0781-CWCspdbed.JPG|thumb|One of Chris's promotional images for his [[Love Quest]].]]

Chris's entry into [[Piedmont Virginia Community College]] probably eased his inability to cope with life after high school. He took courses in [[CADD|Computer Aided Drafting and Design]] and began spending more time on ''Sonichu'', launching a [[Sonichu's News Dash|newsletter]] and circulating it on the PVCC campus. Over time, he began losing touch with his gal-pals from high school, and he presumably found the junior college crowd less willing to humor him and his personal idiosyncrasies. By his own admission, his social life at PVCC was lacking when compared to his high school years.<ref>[[Story of My Current Days#Story of My Current Days]]</ref><ref>[[Chris + Sarah's Life-Shares]], page 10.</ref>
Chris says he decided he needed a [[sweetheart]] in February [[2003]]. Possibly driven by his discovery that his old friend [[Sarah Nicole Hammer|Sarah Hammer]] had begun dating [[Wes Iseli]], Chris started his [[Love Quest]] in earnest that summer. However, he quickly found that every girl he talked to had a boyfriend (or so they claimed). Chris soon became neurotic about the "[[Infinitely-High Boyfriend-Factor]]" and began concocting and employing various bizarre methods to attract women without actually having to approach or speak to them.

Chris's most celebrated technique involved sitting in one place (or pacing back and forth) for hours, holding a sign that read "I am a (variable age)-Year Old, Single Male, seeking an 18-(Chris's age then)-Year Old, Single Female Companion." Amazingly, this strategy accomplished nothing beyond getting him into trouble with various [[jerkop|authority]] [[manajerks|figures]] who believed that he was loitering and/or soliciting sex, which was legally true. Chris was particularly affected by a series of confrontations with the [[PVCC]] dean [[Mary Lee Walsh]] over his attraction techniques, resulting in an ongoing, completely one-sided blood feud involving [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|magic curses]] and [[Mary Lee Walsh#Mary Lee Walsh in Sonichu|slander]]. After a series of confrontations featuring increasingly bizarre and threatening behavior on Chris's part, Walsh suspended him for one year in [[2004]]. He eventually returned the following year, obtaining an associate's degree in May [[2006]].

[[Image:156-CWCMegan1.jpg|thumb|left|He can smell fear.]]

After college and completing his education, Chris promptly dropped out of society, devoting his life to finding a boyfriend-free girl, drawing ''Sonichu'', [[mass debating]], and using his [[monthly tugboat|welfare money]] to buy video games and [[sex toys]]. He would not make any serious attempts to seek out a career from graduation onward, in spite of attaining a degree that could probably net him a decent-paying (and relatively undemanding) career that would likely grant him more opportunities than sitting at home playing video games ever could.

In [[2005]], Chris met [[Megan Schroeder]] at a [[The GAMe PLACe|local game and card shop]]. A social outcast like himself, Megan proved unusual in that she was willing to talk to Chris for more than 5 minutes. The two quickly became close friends, although Megan claimed to have recently endured a bad break-up and refused to entertain Chris's obvious romantic interest. Chris, seemingly basing his stance on studying women in porn and [[anime]], believed that the key to turning Megan's platonic feelings romantic was to make inappropriate advances toward her until she had to tell him to stop touching her (a habit that got so bad that [[Megan emails, 2005-2006#Megan sends Chris some more mixed signals|Megan later equated it to sexual harassment]]).

In the summer of [[2007]], Chris put it all on the line by entering a [[Chop Chop Master Onion's Rap Showdown|''PaRappa the Rapper'' contest]] so that he could win prizes and a trip for two to Seattle, which formed the centerpiece of his plan to finally score with Megan. The contest ended in disaster for Chris, as he lost to the dreaded [[Adam Stackhouse]] and subsequently learned that Megan wouldn't have gone with him on the trip even if he had won.

It was during the Love Quest that Chris was inspired to launch ''Sonichu'', a comic book series featuring his Electric Hedgehog Pokémon. Ostensibly, the comic was intended to focus on the life and times of Chris's unbelievably original character, but by halfway through the first issue, the focus of the story had become Chris and his myriad of romantic misadventures. Little would Chris know, however, that his life was about to permanently change as a result of writing and drawing his magnum opus.

[[Image:110-SchuSiteIdea2.jpg|thumb|FUCK YEAH!!!]]

Chris's rare talent (and by talent we mean pathology) was discovered when someone posted an anonymous picture of Sonichu on [[4-cent garbage|4chan]]. It only took a quick Google search of Chris's name to discover the picture's author. He was also discovered on 26 October 2007 by the website SomethingAwful, when a user derailed an unrelated conversation and wrote their personal account of Chris. A thread on Chris and Sonichu was created the next day.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20071107074539/http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2667671&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1</ref> Chris's miserable existence spilled over onto [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] in November 2007. His life hasn't been the same since then, and shockingly enough, Chris himself shoulders some of the blame for why that is.

Upon learning of the "Chris-Chan" article on ED, Chris released a single [[Chris Chan's Public Announcement|YouTube video]] attempting to diplomatically convince the site to remove the page. Failing in this, he then spent the next several months [[List of Chris's edits to Encyclopedia Dramatica|vandalizing]] the article in the vain hope of overwhelming his enemies. This catastrophically backfired as Chris, in an attempt to prove himself as lurid as the [[trolls]], revealed a great deal of embarrassing information, most notably [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|a portrait of himself finger-banging Megan]] that ruined his most important relationship at the time, giving the trolls justification to continue their war against Chris in the process. By the spring of [[2008]], Chris would be banned from both [[The GAMe PLACe|his favorite hangout]] (temporarily, but he was banned permanently in August 2008) and [[Grace Baptist Church|his parents' church]] for reasons at least partially related to information brought to light by the ED article.

[[File:Personalprofile.jpg|thumb|left|''[[OkCupid|Hello]], [[The Hook Cafe|ladies]][[Carlos Chantor|!]]'' Chris in [[2010]].]]
[[File:Ecp00066.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2009]], making [[April 16 Fetish Vids|fetish videos]] for [[Ivy]].]]

In August 2008, Chris [[CWC's Second Message|declared]] [[Attention All Sonichu Fans (NOT HATERS)|war]] upon Encyclopedia Dramatica in a series of videos, threatening to withhold publication of the upcoming [[Sonichu 7|''Sonichu'' #7]] unless his vast [[True and Loyal Fanbase]] rallied to force ED to remove the "Chris-Chan" article. When ED suffered outages unrelated to this crusade, Chris [[Kudos to the Encyclopedia DramaDestruction|took credit and declared victory]], ironically guaranteeing that he would be under constant fire from trolls for years to come. This began an endless cycle in which Chris would produce [[videos]], comics, and harebrained schemes to attack the trolls, which would, in turn, encourage more and more trolls to provoke him for his hilarious responses [[Honest Content|where he would reveal more information about himself]].

The cycle was briefly disrupted in the fall of 2008 when Chris sent his various [[medallions]] to his [[Blanca Weiss|fake Internet girlfriend]], who immediately destroyed them and broke up with him. This emotional heartbreak and the release of ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' reduced Chris's output of videos and other sources of lulz. At the same time, Encyclopedia Dramatica began cracking down on trolls using Chris's ED page as a forum for discussing him, and in general, opinion was divided as to whether it was funny or [[A-Logging|obnoxious and tiring]] to continue harassing him. The resulting schism led to the creation of numerous websites (such as [[CWCki|this one]] singularly devoted to documenting his life), which has only expanded the coverage of Chris's hijinks.

By late 2008, trolls controlled many aspects of Chris's life by posing as dedicated [[fans]], sweethearts, cartoonish enemies, and prospective business partners. Chris's ego and [[naïve]]te readily embraced this brave new world in which every woman wanted to fuck him, every man was either trying to help him sell ''Sonichu'' products or steal the franchise for their own nefarious goals, and that any and all trolls were a vocal minority on his way to fame and fortune. Trolls would begin denoting major events in Chris's life as "[[saga]]s" such as the [[Miyamoto]] Saga, the [[Julie]] Saga, the [[Ivy]] Saga, the Liquid Saga, and the ''[[Asperchu]]'' Saga. All the while, the editors and administrators working at Encyclopedia Dramatica and the CWCki maintained a constant record of these events, ensuring that Chris could not get away with his highly selective and revisionary treatment of his history.

Following his disastrous failure to woo [[The Wallflower|a real girl]] in [[March 2010]], Chris began to realize what anyone else would have figured out a long time ago: that his Internet presence and the toxic cycle of exposing something about himself, getting exploited or otherwise made fun of by trolls, and reacting poorly to said trolling was having a detrimental effect upon his mental health and social life, with every new video that he created exacerbating the problem. This realization appears to have led him to reduce his online presence and to stop donning Sonichu medallions and [[clown shirt]]s. For a time, it looked like Chris was learning from his experiences and was making an effort to improve his own lot in life.

In [[November 2010]], around the same time another romantic saga involving [[Jackie|another sweetheart]] ended in failure, Chris announced he will no longer socialize online or publish videos of himself. Subsequently, all videos save for the last one were removed from his YouTube channel. It initially appeared that Chris was making a positive lifestyle change, but alas, it was quickly discovered that his Internet activity had not completely ceased since he announced retirement from social media. Instead of investing his time into more productive activities or improving on his social skills, Chris spent much more time playing video games and otherwise doing what he had been doing when he did engage with trolls. In a predictable fashion, he ultimately forgot anything that he might have learned from his experiences of [[Kick the Autistic|being one of the Internet's biggest punching bags]], and he subsequently returned to making new videos starting on [[August 2011]]... Albeit with a pretty big change in how he presented himself online.

==Crossdresser Era==
{{main|2011|2012|2013|2014}}

{{quote|I Seriously Have Been [[Chris and English|PUBLICALY]] INVISIBLE for YEARS!

[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2011]] in one of the first [[Tomgirl Pictures]]. This photo was also taken near the time of his father's death.]]

[[File:Christran2.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2012]].]]

Perhaps the most dramatic change in Chris's life was his open and enthusiastic embrace of crossdressing and femininity in general. In [[2011]], Chris was revealed to have become a full-blown crossdresser (or "[[tomgirl]]," as he calls it) and fully embraced his new identity both at home and in public. Chris seemed to have reconciled this behavior with his extreme homophobia, transphobia, and purported heterosexuality without any difficulty. Though treated as yet another saga at first, this behavior seems to be deeply entrenched and became more extreme in late 2014 and the years that followed. As mentioned previously, Chris would slowly but surely walk back his anti-LGBT stances.

[[File:Chris march2013.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2013]].]]

In [[September 2011]], Chris's father died of heart failure. Chris lived with his widowed mother until [[2021]] ([[Incest Saga|not that he willingly moved out]]), who along with the [[Monthly tugboat|tugboat]], was his only source of income during this time. Since his mother is in her 80s, it can be reasonably assumed that she has little time left on this earth, especially when her poor health and apparent cognitive decline are considered.

After Bob's death, Chris generally ceased interacting with trolls, seemingly no longer able to effortlessly bounce back from despair like he used to. Instead, Chris lapsed into a deep depression, already existing [[Simonla Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin|following the loss of the sanctity of his personal retreat]] but no doubt exacerbated by the later loss of his home to fire, and subsequent financial difficulties. In the aftermath of the family tragedy, many trolls began to question whether Chris deserved or indeed, could cope with any further trolling, given that he was no longer the [[Chris and anger|bellicose]], [[Chris and fashion|striped-shirted]] egocentric man-child that the world had come to know and love. For many, it became apparent that Chris's glory days of screaming into a camera like a madman and performing like a circus animal for trolls offering [[china]] were over, and several moved on. The Golden Age of Chris-Chan was over.

[[File:Chris 15 Aug 2014 changed profile pic.jpg|thumb|Chris in [[2014]], his long, lank, thin [[hair]] receding in earnest.]]

[[File:OmegaconB.jpg|thumb|left|Chris in [[2015]], cosplaying as [[Vinyl Scratch]], AKA [[My Little Pony|DJ-PON3]], after coming out as a transgender woman.]]

Nonetheless, the surviving Chandlers still managed to be drama magnets in their own neighborhood. In [[October 2011]], Chris and Barb were [[28 October 2011|arrested]] at [[The GAMe PLACe]] and charged on several counts including trespassing, assault, and failure to stop at an accident causing over $1,000 in damage after an altercation with [[Michael Snyder]]. (Chris had presumed that the store's new management meant that Snyder may no longer work there, thus giving Chris a chance to potentially revisit his old haunt. When this proved to not be the case, the both Chandlers hit Snyder with a car.) The trespassing and assault charges against Chris were dropped, but both still faced felony trials for the failure to stop, and Barb for assaulting a police officer. Much of the money that Bob left behind was used to pay for legal expenses.

While awaiting trial, Chris was worried that he may die a virgin if he were to go to prison, and so looked for ways to have at least one sexual encounter before a worst-case scenario could come to pass. [[April 2012]], Chris declared that he finally [[Mia Hamm|lost his virginity]]. This was later confirmed to be true... [[Other documents#Chris's wingman|at the hands of a prostitute]]. Chris reneged on the "true love" part of his [[Love Quest]] and skipped straight to the point, which seemed to satisfy him in the short run but otherwise wasn't a life-changing experience for him. 2012 was otherwise uneventful, probably because Chris was in trouble with [[Chris and the law|the law]] and spent less time online than usual.

[[2013]] saw Chris's online presence more or less confined to ranting on [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]], as well as making himself a pariah to people in real life through his actions. He began blaming people to their face for his own shortcomings which resulted in him leaving his church, getting chewed out by a voice actress from [[My Little Pony|one of his favorite shows]], upsetting the few friends he had left with his homophobia and getting thrown out of a [[Walmart]] for committing blatant vandalism. He has also complained about the "stress" taking its toll on his health ([[Chris and health|this, at least, is evident]]) and pined incessantly about being "lonely." Even the "gal-pals" Chris so fondly talked about in his high school days would end up betraying him – he found out around Halloween 2013 that they had only tolerated him out of pity and, having discovered his antics, were just as revolted by them as the next sane person. Of course, the miseries Chris was lamenting at this time were almost entirely products of his own behavior coming back to haunt him, something he clearly did not realize.

The year 2013 also saw the rise of quite a few new white knights as well (including actual friends he met in real life) all of whom tried to offer constructive advice to Chris, although their advice was unwelcome information and thus totally ignored, as tradition dictates. This year of Chris's life seemed to have been most characterized by his flagrant disrespect of people, things and ideas around him, resulting in his exile and loneliness which he idiotically (but predictably) did not connect with his appalling behavior.

At first, it seemed that [[2014]] would just be business as usual. That is, until [[January 2014|January]] 10th when an extension cord leading from the bathroom to a coffee maker in the hallway – which was placed in such a location due to the nature of Barb's compulsive hoarding habits, and had become frayed due to the constant closing of the door – sparked and [[2014 house fire|set the house on fire]].<ref>[[BraveryJerk Interviews]]</ref> While no human was seriously harmed, one of the [[Chandler cats]] died in the fire. The resulting damages forced Chris and his mother to temporarily [[Rental House|move out and trash a different house]]. Some of the Chandler possessions were destroyed in the fire, including most of Bob's huge record collection.

Chris and his mother ran into [[Chris and money|acute]] [[Debt|financial]] [[Financhu Crisis|difficulties]] as a result of the house fire on top of their existing income issues, and Chris had spent most of the year alternating between begging for money and taking commissions to make more of his artwork on Facebook, and selling autographed photos of himself on eBay ([[Trolls|with it being pretty clear who most of his patrons were]]). Despite the severity of the Chandler family's financial issues, Chris chose to blow literally thousands of dollars on [[Lego|children's toys]] instead of working to resolve his debts. Naturally, his "art" and photographs are only really of any value to [[True and Loyal Fanbase|fans]], who purchased these items as a means to keep a roof over Chris's head.

In July, Chris was catfished once more by a new sweetheart named [[Catherine]] after meeting her through [[OKCupid]]. She met up with him in Ruckersville and surreptitiously recorded his conversations. The relationship lasted through the end of the year, and through this process, it was learned that Chris [[Un-clit|pierced his taint]], with other media tied to Chris's life leaking as Catherine and cooperating trolls uncovered more details about his then-current life and mindset.

[[Transgender|Chris began identifying as a lesbian]] in [[August 2014]], and denied that there is no such thing as a male lesbian (citing Yahoo! Answers as proof). While he seemed to soften his stance on gay men (''very'' reluctantly), he also indicated that he hated his own [[duck|genitalia]], in addition to his pre-existing hatred of pickles in general. Chris also took up attending LGBTQ events around Charlottesville, including attending a Halloween party at a gay bar dressed as a lesbian from the 70s. At such events, he obviously mingled with people infinitely more accepting and kind than himself. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before Chris would make a more serious commitment to his lifestyle change when he officially began to transition.

==Transgender Era==

[[File:Happy Birthday, Nathan..mp400001.png|thumb|Chris in [[2016]].]]

In early December 2014, Chris informed those closest to him to start referring him with female pronouns, indicating his desire to go from being a crossdresser to becoming transgender. This era started with a bang when, in December, Chris [[26 December 2014|violated a ban and assaulted an employee in an outing to]] [[GameStop]] on Boxing Day. He assaulted the store's Assistant Manager, who was calling security, with mace; showing that, again, Chris has yet to learn anything from his mistakes, if he even regards them as mistakes to begin with. On top of this, Chris subsequently caused another ruckus at Walmart, just in case you started feeling bad for him after being duped by yet another fake girlfriend. Chris ultimately spent a night in the slammer, and following a lengthy legal process, got off with a $541 fine and a six-month suspended sentence.

More generally, 2015 saw Chris slowly shy away from his traditional bigotry towards men and homosexuals (while still keeping up his [[Sonic Boom Protests|ludicrous crusade against Sega over the color scheme of a certain cartoon hedgehog]] and dramatizing his experience with trolls), and finally develop enough self-awareness to try and know himself. He indicated in several Facebook posts that he was still trying to gauge his own sexuality and sexual identity; for some time, he yo-yoed between wanting to remain a crossdresser and wanting to transition into womanhood.

Chris performed the sequels to some of his greatest hits in 2016:

In addition, Barb was sued by two banks, due to failure to pay over $20,000 of debt, kicking off the [[Financhu Crisis]], in which she and Chris both begged for money like jackasses, while their hoards of things that they could sell were clearly visible behind them. The [[Business]] saga was suspended when Chris was [[Chris and business|banned from Etsy for failing to send orders]]. He continued to [[duck]] responsibility for his inability to put down the [[PS4]] controller long enough to slap together his preschool-level arts and crafts, choosing to blame [[Lulu]] for being "[[Homos|the bugger that bit my ass bad]] and killed my creative groove."

His Oedipal complex veered into disturbing new levels when he freely announced that he [[August 2016 Facebook posts#Incestuous Thoughts|dreams about having sex with his mother]]. He also made multiple death threats against political figures [[Donald Trump]] and Mike Pence.

[[File:ChrisandTeenTroonSquad.png|thumb|left|Chris with the Teen Troon Squad in [[2018]].]]

In [[2017]], the Financhu Crisis continued to stress the Chandlers. Chris offered pieces of his late father's stamp collection, the [[Sonic Totem]] and [[The Classic]] for sale in order to afford more toys, a [[$400 gold necklace]] for Barb, and the extremely costly expenses for his [[Stamps#Raffle|raffle prizes]]. He and Barb also continued begging. One of his friends from [[The End Games]] Pokémon Club grew concerned and gave him solid advice on how to apply for work through Virginia's DARS program – and in true Chris fashion, instead of following it, he went on an angry tirade. Later in the year, he was sued for failure to pay a debt to Mariner Finance.

Chris rediscovered Twitter in March. His frequent tweets to voice actresses lead to the [[DoopieDoOver|Doopie]] saga – in which he was chastised for calling her [[darling]], but doubled down on it and was subsequently blocked by her – and getting blocked by ''My Little Pony'' voice actress [[Tabitha St. Germain]] due to her getting constantly tagged by Chris and the [[weens]] orbiting him. He created sockpuppet accounts [[NightStar2891]] to plead his case and [[TwiSparLicious]] to ban-evade, which failed.

He briefly joined the [[Kiwi Farms]] forum under the name LegendaryChristorian and held a Q&A session.

A high point for his social life was attending [[BronyCon]], at which he enjoyed attention from [[fans]]. He also attended LGBT events such as [[UVA Remembers Pulse]] (where he was interviewed on TV), [[Cville Pride]] (where he was photographed by news in crowd shots), and [[Love is Love]].

Chris resumed the [[Business]] saga halfway through the year by going back to work on the [[Sonichu 11|''Sonichu'' #11]] comic he had abandoned in 2015, by placing pages behind [[Patreon]]. He also again offered books for sale, self-published by [[Lulu]], was paid to be interviewed by [[Merryweathery]] and [[CopperCab]], and joined [[Redbubble]]. After eight years, he finally completed #11, and moved onto #12, which he completed after a few months. He began work on [[Sonichu 12-9|''Sonichu'' #12-9]] and [[Sonichu 15|''Sonichu'' #15]], but got distracted. His Patreon efforts also began to languish around October, when patrons complained that he hadn't been sending out books.

Another sweetheart saga took place in the fall. [[Jessica Quinn]], a long-time white knight, suddenly turned troll by pretending she had fallen in love with him. She broke up with him twice, the first time he cried on camera for her to take him back, and the final time, [[CLog 10042017 - Q&A NO MORE|he raged on video against the trolls he thought were to blame]]. He recovered quickly after drowning his sorrows at an ice cream shop.

[[File:CWC 11 February 2019.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in 2019 with [[Lego|a custom LEGO minifigure]] representing his [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|godsona]], [[CPU Blue Heart]].]]

After [[Heart level|having his heart shattered]] yet again, Chris began to be influenced by another troll, the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy]], who role-played as his [[imaginary friends]] and convinced him that he was providing information from [[CWCville]]'s dimension, which Chris accepted out of having his fantasy world validated; along the way, another Idea Guy joined with the first. Together, they used their influence over Chris's beliefs to [[List of beliefs brainwashed into Chris|brainwash Chris into believing several things about himself]], such as the idea that he was [[bisexual]] and half-Sonichu, which ultimately culminated in Chris developing a [[Messiah complex]] derived from [[Dimensions|his own delusions about the nature of reality]] and the lore of ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]''.

[[File:Praetor5.jpg|thumb|Chris in 2020, moments before [[Goochland Library Sermon|giving a sermon]] of the allegedly imminent [[Dimensional Merge]].]]

When it was learned that the Idea Guys were extorting Chris, who was already facing financial difficulties, [[The Captain]] and [[Marvin]] intervened, forcing the Idea Guys out from Chris's life over the course of the subsequent months, however Chris retained much of the Idea Guys' brainwashing. The Captain, Marvin, and [[Null]] – a group called the [[Guard Dogs]] by onlookers from Kiwi Farms – attempted to protect Chris from further bad actors by screening his messages, however, the [[Teen Troon Squad]] managed to evade them by meeting with Chris in person. The Guard Dogs alleged them to have role-played as Chris's imaginary friend [[Magi-Chan]] and Chris's retreated more into his fantasy world while under their enabling influence.

Chris repeatedly denounced the Idea Guys for financially exploiting him, but the damage was done to his psyche: Chris bought into the fantasy that he was a goddess as a new coping mechanism, and his already-shaky grasp on reality hit rock bottom. Chris's new beliefs led him to seek a hippie makeover befitting of his supposed [[PsychicPowers|psychic prowess]], and he retreated further into his fantasies, generally refusing to engage with people who wouldn't entertain them. Chris eventually turned on Null, thanks to the influence of other trolls – chief among them, [[Jacob Sockness]], who sought to sexually exploit Chris. The Guard Dogs realized that there was little that they could do and disbanded. Another white-knight group, known as the [[Watchmen]], formed (who [[Enablers|enabled some of Chris's fantasies]] out of pragmatism). A highly cliquish group who hassled many others that were in contact with Chris, they eventually splintered following internal conflict among its members.<ref>[[The Lainchu Manifesto]]</ref>

In [[September 2020]], a group led by [[Caden Peck]], calling itself [[Praetor]], met with Chris and proposed doing [[business]] with him. An online shop, [[OfficialCWCmart]], was launched later that year, with its first item being medallions produced by Praetor members and authorized by Chris, for which he was paid a royalty. The shop later expanded its offerings to items which were claimed to be made by Chris himself.

Throughout all of this, Chris's belief in the Dimensional Merge has not wavered. When it didn't arrive on the prophesied date of {{w|Jonestown|November 18, 2018}}, Chris did what all doomsday cultists and religious fundamentalists do whenever the apocalypse doesn't happen: he pushed it back again and again. Not helping matters was the advent of [[COVID-19]], which Chris saw as a sign of the Dimensional Merge's progress alongside all the other insane crap that happened in the year 2020. For Chris, things really took a turn for the worse when [[BABSCon]] got canceled, and he began an elaborate coping scheme to [[Spirit possession|live-action roleplay as Sonichu]] until he could attend ''[[My Little Pony]]'' conventions again. Chris spent nearly eleven months pretending to be his [[OCs|original character]], with very few interruptions, before eventually reverting to being himself again on 25 February 2021, [[KwaiiSandbag calls|thanks to the intervention of an enabler]], to personally oppose news about the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' G5 reboot.

By 2021, Chris had largely reduced his online activities to posting long [[Twitter]] threads of faux-philosophical ramblings reflecting his New Age Retro Hippie mindset, which bordered on being incomprehensible or [[Enablers|esoteric]].

During this time, Chris's appearance visibly aged significantly, with his hair turning grey. He's also seemingly lost a bit of weight, not due to improving his diet and leading a less sedentary lifestyle, but due to a decline in muscular mass. This is likely a result of the effects of the hormones that he has applied to treat his gender dysphoria, alongside his declining physical health due to his various poor life decisions.

In 2020, Chris successfully reconciled with [[Null]], who eventually helped organize a fundraiser for Chris so that he could attend [[Everfree Northwest]], a ''[[My Little Pony]]'' convention, on the condition that [[Help send Chris-Chan to Everfree NW|Chris would complete commission work in exchange for his donations]]. Chris also informed Null, [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], several members of [[The Knights of CWC]], and [[Isabella Loretta Janke]] that he was having a romantic relationship with an older woman, giving all of them various hints to her identity.

[[File:Arrestchu.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|[[Incest Arrest|Chris's arrest at a motel]], filmed by fellow lolcow [[Carpetbaggers#Ethan Ralph|Ethan "The Gunt" Ralph]].]]

On the night of 27 July 2021, Chris initiated a video call with Bella. He bragged to her about [[Affair with Mother|sexual acts that he committed with his own mother]] – a felony – over the course of several weeks. Bella partially [[Incest Call|recorded the call]] when Chris began speaking of those actions. He also [[Incest Texts|texted her with more details]]. Bella shared the files with her friends, and those circulated and were publicly leaked on 30 July.

Once these details got out, he and Barb were separated by the [[Jerkops|authorities]], he had to vacate his home due to a week-long [[Emergency Protective Order]], he was very quickly banned from the convention that he'd hoped to attend, and his [[Patreon]] account – one of his few real sources of income – was taken down. Null quickly washed his hands of Chris for good, after he realized that Chris allegedly stole approximately $750 from Barb to fund his stay at [[Regency Inn Richmond]].

Chris was [[Incest Arrest|arrested]] on 1 [[August 2021]], an event which was live-streamed by [[Ethan Ralph]]. The incest revelation and the ensuing drama resulted in several people associated with Chris cutting ties with him – such as [[Don Lashomb]], [[The WCT]], and [[Fiona]]. Other people continue to interact with Chris such as [[Kenneth Engelhardt]], [[Caden Peck]], [[Helena Fiorenza]], and [[Eels and the Eggman]]. Chris's actions during this time trended on social media, leading less Internet-savvy netizens to either discover Chris for the first time or to rediscover him after years of fading into obscurity. The massive social media reaction to the news led to Chris's actions being covered by various news outlets – most notably, a dedicated segment on Fox News's ''Tucker Carlson Tonight'', the most popular show on the network at the time, which in turn exposed him to millions of retired, right-wing baby boomers.

Chris spent the next several months in [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] after being arrested by the Henrico County sheriff's department, awaiting a court hearing set for 28 [[July 2022]], following three continuances. While waiting in jail, Chris's [[Messiah complex|delusions of godhood]] spiraled out of control as he began believing himself to be {{w|Jesus|Jesus of Nazareth}} reincarnated and the [[Dimensional Merge]] to be proceeding entirely as planned. During this time, Chris kept in touch with the outside world via a multitude of [[Jail Communications]] discussing a variety of subjects, from his jail conditions to [[Chris and religion|his renewed interest in the Bible]] and [[Weening|ween]] attempts to convert him to Islam through reading the Qur'an. These letters and phone calls also revealed that Chris had been kept in protective custody for his own safety.

While in jail, Chris wrote the [[Goddess Log]], his jail diary. He also drew artwork, which were sold via [[OfficialCWCmart]].<ref>[[OfficialCWCmart Jail Art]]</ref>

Early into [[March 2022]], it was learned that Chris was transferred out of jail into the [[Western State Hospital]] mental institution. During this time, Chris was isolated from the outside world; what he was up to while there will most likely remain unknown unless Chris opens up about what happened (assuming that he says anything not affected by his own fantasies, which seems like wishful thinking). He returned to [[CVRJ]] on [[May 2022|3 May 2022]], with a new mugshot taken upon his arrival, showing that Chris appeared much more gaunt than before and had lost a substantial amount of weight. Unfortunately, subsequent mail correspondence indicated that his time away from jail had not caused him to face reality, as he opted to double down on his fantasies.

On 28 [[July 2022]], only a day before the first anniversary of the leaking of the infamous incest call, Chris finally had his court hearing after three delays. In the process, it was determined that the case would be going before a grand jury for a felony incest charge. However, Chris's lawyer filed a motion for [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]. Following months of [[CWCki|excessive]] [[Kiwi Farms|online]] [[Carpetbaggers|interest]] in the case, Chris's lawyer eventually managed to convince the court to seal the case on 11 [[August 2022]], with "waive right to indictment" and "transportation order" added to his case file. The exact meaning of these legal maneuvers remains unknown.

[[File:F5IE7YqWwAALxJz.jpg|thumb|right|Free as fuck.]]

After spending around two years in jail, the Internet was shocked when it was announced that Chris was suddenly released on 27 [[March 2023]]. VineLink initially reported that he was bonded out<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023.png]]</ref> before updating their files to say he was released by court order.<ref>[[:File:VineLink Out of Custody 27 March 2023 - 1 49 pm update.png]]</ref> Chris was able to avoid another round of [[Kick the Autistic]] thanks to his lawyer [[David Heilberg]] successfully filing for a motion for an [[Autism disorder deferred disposition|autism disorder deferred disposition]].

Chris was temporarily moved to [[Gateway Homes]], a group home, as part of conditions imposed by the deferred disposition.<ref>[[Medallion Moulding Q&A]]</ref> Silence ensued for the entire month of [[April 2023]]. In the months after [[May 2023]], Chris started [[Post-jail sightings (2023)|getting spotted around Chesterfield County, Virginia]] doing random activities, such as shopping and playing card games. In a few sightings, Chris was seen with a new [[Medallions#Mark V|Sonichu Medallion]], waning away some hope that Chris had actually improved. Any remaining hope disappeared when Chris [[Post-jail sightings (2023)#Earthbound Trading Company|signed a receipt]] as "[[Messiah complex#Jesus Reborn|J. Christ Chan Sonichu]]."

In [[June 2023]], [[Caden Peck]] and an LLC purchased a property in [[Big Island]], VA, and at some point, Chris moved into the house. Through out the entire month of [[August 2023]], after Chris's incest case being set to "Resolved Order Pending,"<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 8 August 2023.png]]</ref> Chris started [[Saga#Incognito Saga (10 August 2023 - 3 September 2023)|rapidly becoming active in random places of the Internet]], progressively setting new milestones, and receiving a surprisingly warm [[Enablers|Enabler]]/[[White-Knighting|White-Knight]]-filled [[Twitter#Post-jail activity|welcome back]].

On 23 [[August 2023]], Chris made his [[DeviantART#Post-jail|first post-jail social media posts]] on DeviantART as he [[Mass debating|mass]]-posted unseen art made during his period of inactivity, new work on [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comics]], and custom [[Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder]] cards.

[[File:IHaveNotWatchedAnyHentai.png|thumb|left|Chris, having a normal one in a 2024 livestream, where he swears he hasn't been watching hentai.]]

Just two days later, Chris's incest case was entirely dismissed, officially making Chris a free man.<ref>[[:File:Court Record - Greene Circuit Court - Incest - (Chris, CR22000141-00) - 25 August 2023.png]]</ref> His car was later spotted at [[14 Branchland Court]]. That day also marked the first of many sightings of a mysterious woman, later named [[Flutter]] by Chris.

Chris's business partnership with Caden Peck continued. By 16 [[October 2023]], Chris would make his full return to the Internet by uploading a bizarre video of himself singing two parodies of songs from the Pokémon 2.B.A. Master album in front of a green screen with clips of Chris dancing overlaid on top of the video throughout. It is likely that Praetor was behind the editing of the video. The next day, Chris would upload another video “Setting the record straight,” giving his side of the story in which he denied ever having sex with Barb, faked the story in order to troll [[Isabella Loretta Janke]], incorrectly claimed the court found him innocent (the incest charge was dismissed following Chris's lawyer's request for an [[autism disorder deferred disposition]]; he was not acquitted by a jury), rambled on about his newfound delusions of being the reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and revealed the moniker of the mysterious woman he'd been seen with in recent months, introducing her as Flutter.

Caden, who had planned to buy a computer for Chris to livestream on prior to the interruption from Chris committing incest, apparently delivered. In the following weeks, Chris would livestream himself playing games while weens would send him donations and text messages with old outdated memes, to attempt to get a rise out of him. Ironically, this has allowed Chris to earn upwards of $600 per stream from the pockets of the very weens that mess with him. [[OfficialCWCmart]] expanded its product line further, with the shop link being promoted in Chris's videos. Another website, [[Cwclight]], a combination sales platform and blog, was also set up.

Chris has been keeping information about himself rather vague when answering questions in his Q&A livestreams. In [[January 2024]], Chris was able to attend his first [[Animate! Raleigh|convention]] since his release from jail, though he was escorted out by security on the second day after his infamous reputation caught up to him and the weens reported him to the convention staff.

[[File:Chris Finland.jpeg|thumb|200px|Chris in Helsinki, Finland shopping at Normal]]

Several times, Chris traveled to [[Finland]] with Flutter.

As of right now, Chris remains [[Obesity|at large]], but is mostly keeping to himself as outsiders continue peering into his strange life.
