Mike900: /* Interpretations */

"'''A-U-T-I-S-M'''" is the third track from ''[[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys (album)|Christian and the Hedgehog Boys]]''

The song is most notable as a view into [[Chris]]'s personal definition of [[autism]]: a condition that makes him quiet and has rendered him so especially intelligent and different that he can't make friends. It is strange that he refers to fellow autists as "us," given the fact that he always tries to disassociate with "[[slow in the minds]]," hence the mention of the [[honor roll]].

==Interpretations==

Students of the English language have been especially puzzled by the phrase "I look at you all, and I see a [[rainbow]]." Various explanations of this include:

*Chris looks at us all and sees a motley crew of [[homo|homosexuals]].
*It was an oversimplified explanation of Autism, (probably something like that the world is like a rainbow, with everyone being different and special) given to him by a doctor when he was a child, which he has latched onto because he thinks it makes him different and special (it doesn't).
*There are many different races of his [[trolls|fans]].

But since Chris can't use figurative language (let alone [[Chris and English|plain English]] to save his autistic ass), a more simple and plausible explanation is that Chris is drawing from the rainbow puzzle logo used by some autism charities, and the line is being said by someone looking at Chris, with an abrupt, sudden point of view change. Other examples of his tenuous grasp of symbolism and syntactic constructs comes from the line "friends unseen", which to Chris apparently implies nobody ever sees him with friends (because he has none), but to anybody else implies that his friends are invisible or hallucinations.

<poem>
[''sung over The Backstreet Boys' "Larger Than Life"'']

Are you ready to party?

[[Yawning Squirtle|I've been high]] and feelin' like an outcast, alright?
But let me tell you: I need some [[Gal-pals|friends]] now, alright?
(’Cause) all of this time I’m livin’ unknown! [?]

[[Autism|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!

I'm lookin' at you all, and I see a [[rainbow]], come on!
You think I'm [[Naitsirhc|different in every way]], come on!
All of the times that I've earned [[honor roll]]!

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!

Oooh, oooh! Oooh, oooh!

All of this time, and I’ve never been known! [?]

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!

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!
That makes us seem special!
That makes us seem special to you!

Mike900:

'''ItIsFinished.MOV''' is a video made by [[Chris]] and is the sequel to [[The MovingForward videos]] released the day before. In this video, a sweaty and somehow smug Chris addresses a "[[Surfshack Tito|heckler]]" who supposedly called him out on the state of his [[PS3|PlayStation 3]]'s hard drive by running it, along with several pieces of the destroyed console, over with his [[Son-Chu|car]]. Repeatedly.

The parts on display are readily identifiable as a PS3's innards. The white object nearer the camera and to the left as Chris runs over it, for instance, is a PS3 Blu-ray drive.

Random anon here, just going to say it.

JESUS CHRIS CHAN THAT'S ABOUT 500-1000 DOLLARS WORTH OF SHIT YOU'RE RUNNING OVER WITH YOUR CAR. AT LEAST GIVE IT TO SOME POOR CHILD WHO DOESN'T GET A MONTHLY TUGBOAT. No, seriously. That's like showing a starving kid what a feast you are about to have and then pissing on it and throwing it away right in his face.

== Transcript ==

[''We're outside the Chandler [[house]] again, and Chris is filming himself with a handheld camera. He looks unusually sweaty, with strands of his thinning [[hair]] stuck to his forehead.'']

Seems like we have an [[Troll|heckler]] in [[Fanbase|the audience]], so I will really show you that I am really, seriously moving on. I would to use the phrase "the final trail of destruction"...

[''Chris walks towards his car, which is sitting in the driveway. We can see the bits of his PS3 stacked up on the ground in front of the wheels.'']

I'm putting everything I have [[Chris and English|dissetted]] from the dead PlayStation 3 console...

[''Chris focuses the camera on three hard drives that sit atop one of the stacks of parts.'']

...including the one, two, three, the three hard drives I have used ev-, all throughout, the original sisty-gigabyte, the 120-gigabyte, and the 500-gigabytes.

[''The camera focuses back on Chris.'']

Prepare for destruction!

[''Chris sets down the camera to one side of the driveway, focusing on the PS3 parts. We then hear him get in the car and start it up. He backs up a bit before driving forward over the remains of the PS3. Then he [[6 June 2010|shifts into reverse and backs up over them]]. Then he repeats the process before pulling all the way into the driveway and getting out of the car. At this point, the remains of his PS3 are [[I'LL BREAK YOU DEAD|well and truly shattered]]. Chris walks over and picks up the camera, pointing it at himself.'']

And now, if you'll excuse me, I will collect the pieces, to be put into a [[Chris's room|dumpster]]. Have a good-
