'''Rollin' and Trollin'''' is a video of downtown [[CWCville]] (really downtown [[Charlottesville]]) uploaded on 17 [[July 2009]], in which Chris attempts [[Wikipedia:Andy Kaufman|Kaufmanesque humor]]. Notable is a video message to real life [[trolls]], including several [[CWCki]] editors. The key component of this message is that, in a shocking turn of events, Chris had been engaging in the most elaborate trolling scheme in history and that his manchildish behavior and public persona were all a piece of performance art ala [[Wikipedia:Andy Kaufman|Andy Kaufman]]. (If only that were true.)

To sell the deception, [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]] changed his look to have:
*a normal hairstyle
*[[That Goatee WILL Grow Back|a goatee]]
*sunglasses instead of large, square [[Respectable Frames|pedo-glasses]]
*plain blue T-shirt and jeans
*[[Semen|navy]] blue sleeveless unbuttoned shirt over his T-shirt
*dog-collar bracelets
*tattoo sleeves, a ''[[Guitar Hero]]: Metallica'' pre-order gift from [[Best Buy]]
*no [[Amnyfest Ring]]
*a chain with some dog tags, instead of his trademark [[medallions|Sonichu medallion]]

Of course, the disguise unintentionally gave away the truth: the lack of the ring and medallion suggested that Chris was not entirely TRUE and HONEST when he made this video, something that he indeed confirmed later. Chris also is continuing his pattern that started about a month before of sometimes not speaking clearly; however, his dialogue is especially unclear here at many parts.

In some parts of the video, his voice suddenly sounds like that of a man in his twenties. However, in other parts of the video, his voice starts cracking as it normally does, like a young boy's voice. No matter what, he still sounds like... well, an [[autism|autistic]].

In his ''[[Internet Dream Lounge]]'' podcast interview, according to Chris's recollection, the cameraman was the mysterious [[Magical Man]] – a friend of Chris's [[Gal pal|gal pal]] [[Kim Wilson]]. Notably, the video appears to have been filmed in a 16:9 aspect ratio, only to be stretched into the 4:3 aspect ratio typical of Chris, making it potentially the first video of Chris to be filmed in HD. Unfortunately, any raw footage recorded for the video has likely been long since [[Lost Media|lost]].

Interestingly enough, Chris behaves (or at least makes a poor attempt to behave) as a normal person would. This implies that he knows to some degree that what he is doing with his life ISN'T normal. To what degree he realizes this is unknown.

''Christian Weston Chandler, Rollin’ and Trollin’''

[''Music, in the form of "Escape from the City" from ''[[Sonic]] Adventure 2'', plays as Chris walks down the street'']

'''Chris''': [''imitating an announcer''] Hi, we’re coming to you live from CWCville today. We’re over at the CWCville pavilion. The, uh, [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys|Hedgehog Boys]] and the, uh, master Christian Mayor the, uh they for day, uh, come here every Friday night and, uh, and it draws a crowd, uh, and it’s very good, y’know. [''Shimmies clumsily''] This gives me some, uh, business from amongst the population that comes around.

[''Music plays as Chris walks down the street'']

'''Chris''': Ah yes, this is our graffiti wall in the mid- uh in the middle of the, uh, city of CWCville in the metropolis. The, uh, fee- the, uh, children are, uh, enjoying it obviously and this is also part of our beautification project in the city and we and I gotta say that the, uh, project just looks fantab- fantastic from here. It all looks very good. I tell you what. “Give me the liberty to know, to utter and to argue according to conscience above all liberties.”

[''Music plays while Chris goes to an elevator. 15 seconds of dead air time pass while he waits for the elevator to arrive while the music plays like it's the coolest thing in the world. The video is also even cut in between the elevator wait as the elevator took even longer to come. The music itself makes the dead air time seem like it's two minutes instead of fifteen seconds. The music continues as he boards the elevator. The lift rises until they arrive at a car park on the top floor.'']

'''Cameraman''': So how do you feel about President [[Barack Obama|Obama]] and his economic policies?
[[File:Cameraman.png|thumb|Contrary to popular belief, the cameraman (on the right) seems to be a pretty normal guy.]]

'''Chris''': I like it. It’s he’s doing a smash-up job of it and he’s, uh, getting everybody their money and, uh, getting everybody the bang for their buck.

'''Cameraman''': How do you feel about President Obama’s foreign policies with countries like Iran and Iraq?

'''Chris''': Hmmm. Yeah. I think he’s doin’ OK. You know, uh, establishing, uh, good communications and, uh, giving them what they, uh, require yeah he’s I think he’s doing a very good job with his, uh, foreign policies.

'''Cameraman''': President Obama, being a family man, what is your opinion on his character?

'''Chris''': I think he’s a regular stand up [[Family Guy|family guy]].

[''During the Obama questions, Chris's voice pitch was in the style of how his voice becomes very high-pitched when he lies.'']

[''Music plays as Chris walks along talking and gesturing at the sky. They arrive at the Timberlake drug store.'']

'''Chris''': Ah, yes, the old Timberlake drug store. It’s been in the, uh, family for generations. The, uh, only, uh ss- generation that, uh, has not been able to run it is the one that went on to a singing career.

[''Outside a bar named Rapture. A clothing store called [[Vivian]]'s is clearly visible'']

'''Chris''': Alright, well, since the, uh, bar s- since the bar law has been repealed, the drinking law, the this here’s the first bar to open up. The, uh, Rapture, uh, in the city of CWCville. Ah, also known by the nickname of, uh, R2.

[''Heart wipe. Chris strides along to music'']

[[File:1920px-2008-0830-Charlottesville-DowntownMall.jpg|thumb|Downtown CWCville.]]
'''Chris''': Over in downtown CWCville the honor the, uh, death of our dearly departed, uh, bodyguard of mine, [[BILLY MAYS]]. He sacrificed his life in an assassination attempt from m- from me and, uh, is doobly honored in downtown CWCville. We build this building. [''Camera pans to a derelict apartment block.''] To be completed in a few, uh, the towers n-, uh, the building the buildings will be the BILLY MAYS Tower and will serve as the new commercial site in the commercial center.

''And now some words to our fans''

'''Chris''': Hey Xantos (sic), man don’t ya be waggling that carton finger around at people. [''Flips off the camera''] Hey [[User:Delabonte|Delabonte]], you wish you were as cool as [[Doctor Robotnik|Doctor Ivo Eggman]]. [''Punches the air, gives V-sign''] Tie day is groovy, maaan. PeachyKeen is always awesome [''V-sign turns into Shocker sign''] wasn’t just in a decade it’s forever.

Tez-manian Devil, some people have oily skin [''Camera zooms in on his forehead''] it doesn’t mean that their hygiene is bad.

''Thank you''

'''Chris''': Yeah, Optimus Prime, uh, compurer, um, do not really care much for him, uh, I mean ever since the movie he’s always hanging around with Sam y'know. He’s always hanging around with kids. [[BlueSpike|Somemany]] [[Pedofork|needs to call]] [[Wikipedia:Chris Hansen|Chris Hansen]].

Chris in the media

2026-04-23T05:07:45Z

Stoplightguy: Feel free to remove this if you think it's unintentional, I'm not 100% certain it is.

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media. Chris posted a newspaper clipping of the story, his first true media appearance, according to him, on Twitter on 8 January 2026.<ref>[[January 2026 social media posts#It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]]</ref>

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===
====2002====
[[File:Santa letter 2002.jpeg|thumb|20 years old.]]
In December [[2002]], Chris wrote to his local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress'', sending a letter directed to [[Santa Claus]]. Chris was 20 years old at the time. The letter was included in the paper's 7 December 2002 edition.<ref>https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-daily-progress/157624923/ ([https://archive.fo/8C2IY archive])</ref>

Chris's social isolation at the time is evident from his wish that Santa would help him find a "local friend". However, he was not yet searching for a [[boyfriend-free girl]], something he would start doing very seriously just [[Love Quest|a few months later]].

{{quotebox|Dear Santa Clause;

How's everything at the North Pole?

Are the reindeer, elves and Mrs. Clause doing O.K.?

I have a few wishes for Christmas.

First off, I would appreciate it if you would send a special present to each of the following friends and family members of mine: [[Barbara Chandler|Mom]], [[Bob Chandler|Dad]], my cousins [[Minor Family Members|Madeline, her sister, Joey, Matthew, Jonathan, all my Aunts and Uncles]], and my old friends: [[Joshua Martinez]], [[Kellie Andes]], [[Tiffany Gowen|Tiffany Gowin]], Brian Savart, [[Sarah Bevel]], and [[Sarah Hammer]].

As for me, enclosed is a copy of a wish list that I gave to my Mom (planning to get at least 1 GameCube and/or 2 GBA games). I would like an extra Game Cube or GBA game that Mom hasn't already picked out to give to me.

Please help my family and friends and I to have a Merry Christmas (All Things Considered).

Merry Christmas,

Christian W. Chandler

P.S. Could you also find a local friend for me, or make my pokemon, [[Sonichu|Somichu]], real for me. Thanks a bunch}}

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in passing in a ''Daily Progress'' article about the opening of a new thrift shop.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html ([https://archive.ph/R3RqE0 archive])</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest Content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2013-2014]]:

{{quotebox|On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White [[MALE]] was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:}}

{{quoteboxred|Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan}}

{{quotebox|I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes. The only time he has mentioned his appearance on ''Failosophy'' in the years since is in passing during a 2021 commentary on a [[#Milo Yiannopoulos|Milo Yiannopoulos]] speech in which a photo of Chris was used to make a point, and even then he did not mention the show by name.

===''OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes'' ===
[[File:OkKOstoryboard.jpg|thumb|The original storyboard initially made the reference more blatant]]
In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells her son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who shared the original storyboard, where it was "even more blatant". K.O. was originally meant to finish the quote, saying "I will! Thank you mother!" It should also be noted that the person who discovered the reference, Parker Simmons, is also the creator of Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart.<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976 ([https://archive.ph/b4hlr archive])</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://web.archive.org/web/20161217205012/https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, stating "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."<ref>https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 ([https://archive.is/mc1Hf archive])</ref>

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scenes video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

The many songs include "Holding up to Dark", a song told from the perspective of [[Megan Schroeder]]; "Feed Us, Freak Boy", told from the perspective of the [[trolls]]; "Echoes Shaped Like You", a song about [[Bob]]'s death; "It Was All a Dream", a song about [[Thetan|Chris realising his high-school gal-pals were fake all along]].

===Smiling Friends===
{{main|Smiling Friends}}
In an interview with ''[[The Create Unknown]]'' podcast, Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack, showrunners of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon ''Smiling Friends'', revealed that they had planned for Chris to be offered a voice cameo in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice the grease puddle in a brief one-off role in the episode "Who Violently Murdered Simon S. Salty?". However, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - cancelled their plans to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06R7mspyoRw</ref>

Later on in the season 3 premiere, a reference to [[THAT IS MY HOUSE]] occurs.
In a scene in which a health inspector comes to visit the Smiling Friends headquarters, the Smiling Friends' boss confides in one of his employees that the building was created using cheap migrant labor, going on to quote the video by announcing "Do you realize. Do you realize something. If we fail this inspection, we could loose our office and we'd have to move out of it?"

An article<ref>[http://www.splicetoday.com/digital/come-back-christian-weston-chandler]</ref> posted on 6 January 2011 on this multimedia blog decried Chris's latest exile from the Internet. It sums up Chris's history and behavior while sharing a personal account of the author taking steps to improve his life in order to distance himself from the similarities he saw between Chris and himself.

===Sega Acknowledges Sonichu===
On 13 [[January 2012]], Sonichu was briefly mentioned during a "Free Stuff Friday" video on Sega of America's YouTube channel.

While this is not [[TRUE and HONEST]] Sonichu [[Jimmy Hill|merchandise]], it does show at least some Sega employees are aware of Sonichu's existence. Jump to 3:50 in the linked video.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===The Jimquisition===
In his review of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2 3D'' for the 3DS, Jim Sterling gives a list of reasons why the original ''Sonic 2'' was an all-time classic.

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

{{quote|What will happen when we have the first [[A Public Announcement for Congress|presidential campaign]] featuring a [[Tomgirl Saga|genderqueer]] [[Chris-chan Sonichu|furry]] who has [[Chris Chan Update 21 October 2008|videos of himself crying on YouTube]] because someone insulted his [[My Little Pony]] drawings? We know, don't we, what the first social justice president will look like.|Milo Yiannopoulos, exhibiting a photo of Chris}}

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' from the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:20 in the link.

Chris found the video on 20 March 2021 and left the following comment:

{{quote|
I have just learned of this particular presentation which saw me in comparison with George Bush, Sr., and dubbed in comparison with what the first social justice president would look like. I feel partially humbled and honored to have been placed in such a pedestal, despite it also likely being a jab at my person like on [[Failosophy|MTV]] years before. I am very well aware of the irony, potential mockery, and likely praise of this situation. However, regardless, I am one who counts their blessings moreso over the negatives.

With that said, Milo Yiannopoulos, I am humbled by this past moment. Thank you for featuring me in your presentation. 😊 I offer kind blessings and prayers to you. ⚡️💙⚡️ 
Be safe and well, you and yours.

===Kotaku===
In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===IGN===
In a video by IGN, James Marsden, the actor playing Tom Wachowski in the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (film)|Sonic movie]] is quizzed on his knowledge of Sonic trivia. One of the questions asked is if Sonichu is an unlockable character in [[Sonic Forces]]. Marsden guessed incorrectly.

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well-educated and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson. Tucker spread misinformation that Chris was going to be sent to a jail for female inmates (the jail Chris was sent to, [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], is mixed-gender). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s rumored dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

===Pregnancy rumor===
After [[Kiwi Farms]] spread misinformation and misleading captions about a clip from a [[Jesus Christ Chan - Shadow Generations Speed Run|November 2024 livestream]], the rumor that Chris was having a child and that [[Flutter]] was pregnant went trending on [[Twitter]]. This lead to some outlets reporting on the baseless claims, most notably ''The Times of India''<ref>https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/who-is-chris-chan-transgender-influencer-hints-at-being-pregnant/articleshow/115682761.cms</ref> and ''The Daily Mail''.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14124411/chris-chan-girlfriend-flutter-pregnancy-announcement.html</ref> The rumor became so widespread that Chris felt the need to release a statement denying it:

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

The game references Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspiration from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspiration from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]].

Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

Chris in the media

2026-04-17T02:26:25Z

Stoplightguy: /* Smiling Friends */

{{see also|Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media. Chris posted a newspaper clipping of the story, his first true media appearance, according to him, on Twitter on 8 January 2026.<ref>[[January 2026 social media posts#It took a talking bear to give the name a young boy loves]]</ref>

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===
====2002====
[[File:Santa letter 2002.jpeg|thumb|20 years old.]]
In December [[2002]], Chris wrote to his local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress'', sending a letter directed to [[Santa Claus]]. Chris was 20 years old at the time. The letter was included in the paper's 7 December 2002 edition.<ref>https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-daily-progress/157624923/ ([https://archive.fo/8C2IY archive])</ref>

Chris's social isolation at the time is evident from his wish that Santa would help him find a "local friend". However, he was not yet searching for a [[boyfriend-free girl]], something he would start doing very seriously just [[Love Quest|a few months later]].

{{quotebox|Dear Santa Clause;

How's everything at the North Pole?

Are the reindeer, elves and Mrs. Clause doing O.K.?

I have a few wishes for Christmas.

First off, I would appreciate it if you would send a special present to each of the following friends and family members of mine: [[Barbara Chandler|Mom]], [[Bob Chandler|Dad]], my cousins [[Minor Family Members|Madeline, her sister, Joey, Matthew, Jonathan, all my Aunts and Uncles]], and my old friends: [[Joshua Martinez]], [[Kellie Andes]], [[Tiffany Gowen|Tiffany Gowin]], Brian Savart, [[Sarah Bevel]], and [[Sarah Hammer]].

As for me, enclosed is a copy of a wish list that I gave to my Mom (planning to get at least 1 GameCube and/or 2 GBA games). I would like an extra Game Cube or GBA game that Mom hasn't already picked out to give to me.

Please help my family and friends and I to have a Merry Christmas (All Things Considered).

Merry Christmas,

Christian W. Chandler

P.S. Could you also find a local friend for me, or make my pokemon, [[Sonichu|Somichu]], real for me. Thanks a bunch}}

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in passing in a ''Daily Progress'' article about the opening of a new thrift shop.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html ([https://archive.ph/R3RqE0 archive])</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

[[File:Dailyprogress print cville pride cwc.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in his [[unicorn cosplay]].]]

A decade later, on 16 [[September 2017]], Chris was photographed by ''Daily Progress'' staff at a [[Cville Pride]] event.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/gallery/cville-pride-festival/collection_58055de6-9b2a-11e7-b098-83d0250a47fb.html#tncms-source=endcard-gallery ([https://archive.ph/uvQ2G archive])</ref>

==== 2021 ====
Chris would make the pages of the ''Daily Progress'' yet again on 2 [[August 2021]], this time in connection with his arrest for incest.<ref>https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/greene-county-woman-charged-with-incest/article_fbee4158-f3db-11eb-9ebc-bf432f1c0e8f.html ([https://archive.ph/pRiFq archive])</ref>

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest Content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2013-2014]]:

{{quotebox|On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White [[MALE]] was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:}}

{{quoteboxred|Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan}}

{{quotebox|I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes. The only time he has mentioned his appearance on ''Failosophy'' in the years since is in passing during a 2021 commentary on a [[#Milo Yiannopoulos|Milo Yiannopoulos]] speech in which a photo of Chris was used to make a point, and even then he did not mention the show by name.

===''OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes'' ===
[[File:OkKOstoryboard.jpg|thumb|The original storyboard initially made the reference more blatant]]
In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells her son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who shared the original storyboard, where it was "even more blatant". K.O. was originally meant to finish the quote, saying "I will! Thank you mother!" It should also be noted that the person who discovered the reference, Parker Simmons, is also the creator of Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart.<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976 ([https://archive.ph/b4hlr archive])</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://web.archive.org/web/20161217205012/https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, stating "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."<ref>https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 ([https://archive.is/mc1Hf archive])</ref>

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scenes video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

In the ''[[Wikipedia:Paradise PD|Paradise PD]]'' episode "Top Cops" (12 [[March 2021]]), an image of Sonichu's head can be seen on the back of a fake [[Pokémon]] card. This was confirmed in a [[Affair with Mother|now deleted tweet]] by animator Perry Hull, who added it as an Easter egg after learning about Chris by watching ''[[Chris-Chan: A Comprehensive History]]''. <ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20210618184814/https://twitter.com/perryhull/status/1370884184361828356</ref>

The many songs include "Holding up to Dark", a song told from the perspective of [[Megan Schroeder]]; "Feed Us, Freak Boy", told from the perspective of the [[trolls]]; "Echoes Shaped Like You", a song about [[Bob]]'s death; "It Was All a Dream", a song about [[Thetan|Chris realising his high-school gal-pals were fake all along]]. The final 5 songs are all about Chris's [[Affair With Mother|affair with Barb]].

===Smiling Friends===
{{main|Smiling Friends}}
In an interview with ''[[The Create Unknown]]'' podcast, Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack, showrunners of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon ''Smiling Friends'', revealed that they had planned for Chris to be offered a voice cameo in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice the grease puddle in a brief one-off role in the episode "Who Violently Murdered Simon S. Salty?". However, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - cancelled their plans to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06R7mspyoRw</ref>

Later on in the season 3 premiere, a reference to [[THAT IS MY HOUSE]] occurs.
In a scene in which a health inspector comes to visit the Smiling Friends headquarters, the Smiling Friends' boss confides in one of his employees that the building was created using cheap migrant labor, going on to quote the video by announcing "Do you realize. Do you realize something. If we fail this inspection, we could loose our office and we'd have to move out of it?"

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu.

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

{{quote|What will happen when we have the first [[A Public Announcement for Congress|presidential campaign]] featuring a [[Tomgirl Saga|genderqueer]] [[Chris-chan Sonichu|furry]] who has [[Chris Chan Update 21 October 2008|videos of himself crying on YouTube]] because someone insulted his [[My Little Pony]] drawings? We know, don't we, what the first social justice president will look like.|Milo Yiannopoulos, exhibiting a photo of Chris}}

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' from the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:20 in the link.

Chris found the video on 20 March 2021 and left the following comment:

{{quote|
I have just learned of this particular presentation which saw me in comparison with George Bush, Sr., and dubbed in comparison with what the first social justice president would look like. I feel partially humbled and honored to have been placed in such a pedestal, despite it also likely being a jab at my person like on [[Failosophy|MTV]] years before. I am very well aware of the irony, potential mockery, and likely praise of this situation. However, regardless, I am one who counts their blessings moreso over the negatives.

With that said, Milo Yiannopoulos, I am humbled by this past moment. Thank you for featuring me in your presentation. 😊 I offer kind blessings and prayers to you. ⚡️💙⚡️ 
Be safe and well, you and yours.

In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

The article noted that Chris was charged with incest and held without bond and that additional charges were pending.<ref>https://www.cbs19news.com/story/44432363/suspect-arrested-in-sex-crimes-against-family-member-case</ref>

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson. Tucker spread misinformation that Chris was going to be sent to a jail for female inmates (the jail Chris was sent to, [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]], is mixed-gender). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s rumored dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

=="Fake news"==
===Chris Jail Escape Hoax===
Following a [[4-cent garbage.com|4chan]] post falsely claiming Chris escaped from prison going viral on 28 [[August 2022]], several outlets, most notable The Daily Dot<ref>https://www.dailydot.com/debug/chris-chan-jail-escape-rumors-meme/</ref> and USA Today<ref>https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/09/16/fact-check-vlogger-charged-incest-still-custody-after-arrest/8037525001/</ref> published articles debunking the claim, citing confirmations from [[Central Virginia Regional Jail]] and Chris's lawyer [[David Heilberg]].

===Pregnancy rumor===
After [[Kiwi Farms]] spread misinformation and misleading captions about a clip from a [[Jesus Christ Chan - Shadow Generations Speed Run|November 2024 livestream]], the rumor that Chris was having a child and that [[Flutter]] was pregnant went trending on [[Twitter]]. This lead to some outlets reporting on the baseless claims, most notably ''The Times of India''<ref>https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/who-is-chris-chan-transgender-influencer-hints-at-being-pregnant/articleshow/115682761.cms</ref> and ''The Daily Mail''.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14124411/chris-chan-girlfriend-flutter-pregnancy-announcement.html</ref> The rumor became so widespread that Chris felt the need to release a statement denying it:
{{quotebox|Okay, all of this is starting to get out of control now. There is no pregnancy; I was speaking hypothetically in that live stream. I am so surprised how even when I say something hypothetical, it gets misunderstood. Thank you for your kindness.
I reiterate: there is no pregnancy with anyone.<ref>[[November 2024 social media posts#Pregnancy rumor confirmed false]]</ref>}}

==Video Games==
===''McPixel''===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

In this 2012 point-and-click adventure game, players can interact with an NPC resembling and talking like Chris who wants to become a hippy to go on his "[[Love Quest]]". If asked on what his dream girl is, he gives out a description reminiscent of that from the [[Attraction Sign]].

===''Goat Simulator''===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''Heartbeat''===
In the 2018 RPG ''Heartbeat'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspiration from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspiration from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

'''Edmund McMillen''' is a game developer behind titles such as ''Super Meat Boy'', ''[[The Binding of Isaac]]'', ''Tapeworm'', and ''[[Mewgenics]]''. In his association with Chris, he is a [[carpetbagger]] who collaborated with Chris and included his artwork within ''Isaac'' and ''Mewgenics''.

==Collaborations==

He and Chris mutually follow each other on [[Twitter]] (as of [[August 2025]]), and he has also referenced Chris while promoting other projects. In [[May 2020]], he held livestreams regarding his upcoming card game ''Tapeworm'', and within the background, a framed photograph of Chris can be seen.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BORLjh-WSl8</ref> On one of the streams from 19 May, he displayed a [[medallion]] he had bought from Chris and answered a fan's question on his favorite saga, saying he didn't know but that it was probably the beginning stuff where Chris was making comics and challenging the world over them.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4y-bbnYqZ8</ref>

Edmund commissioned Chris to create artwork for a card in ''The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls'', which was revealed on 17 [[June 2021]].<ref>[[June 2021 social media posts#Edmund McMillen]]</ref> It was then cancelled after Chris's [[incest]] scandal came to light,<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/isaacfoursouls/the-binding-of-isaac-4-souls-requiem/posts/3254814</ref> although three years later, Edmund again expressed interest in releasing the card.<ref>https://x.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1776483051301965827 ([https://archive.fo/BlAAg archive])</ref>

According to Edmund, Chris kept in contact and sent him many letters from [[Central Virginia Regional Jail|jail]].<ref>https://twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1757568134851260670 ([https://archive.fo/u1SVv archive])</ref> None of these letters have been released. He also received [[Jail Letter Gifts]] from Chris.<ref>https://www.tiktok.com/@edmundmcmillen/video/7271001333958905134</ref>

Edmund personally gifted Chris a physical copy of ''The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+'' for the Nintendo Switch, and he played the game during a livestream in [[February 2024]].<ref>[[Round 2 - Media Share Suggestion Live Stream]]</ref> Chris also owns ''Super Meat Boy'' and ''Super Meat Boy Forever'' on his Switch,<ref>[[February 2024 social media posts#Stream Poll]]</ref> but it's uncertain whether or not they were also personally gifted to him, as though McMillen created Super Meat Boy, he is no longer associated with the Team Meat (the game's development team) and was not involved in ''Super Meat Boy Forever''.

===Mewgenics===
{{Main|Mewgenics}}

On 31 [[July 2025]], Edmund debuted his ''Mewgenics'' comic at the Gen Pop convention.<ref>https://x.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1950945993463079204 ([https://archive.fo/xIwb9 archive])</ref> A few days later, a fan noticed that Chris had collaborated on the comic and uploaded a photo of the page online.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/1mgvw1c/new_chris_art_in_mewgenics_comic/ ([https://archive.fo/9fXjr archive])</ref> On 9 [[January 2026]], Chris teased his involvement with ''Mewgenics'' on Twitter with a winking emoji.<ref>[[January 2026 social media posts#Mewgenics]]</ref> On 12 January, Edmund tweeted a picture of himself with Chris's scrapped artwork for ''The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls'', which Chris soon retweeted.<ref>https://x.com/edmundmcmillen/status/2010892638816534962 ([https://archive.fo/HobTK archive])</ref>

==Opinion on Chris's Incest Charge==

{{quote|A little food for thought. 
If Chris raped their mother they would … 
1. Be in prison 
2. Be a registered sex offender 
3. Be barred from seeing her 

If Chris has sex with their mother… 
1. They may have been manipulated to do so and blackmailed. 
2. They may have been manipulated into telling a fantasy story used to harm them. 
3. They may have imagined the whole thing. 

I know most won’t bother having doubt, but there are facts out there if you care to look…|Edmund on Chris's Incest Charge.<ref name = theorizing>https://x.com/edmundmcmillen/status/2022489973631652070 ([https://archive.ph/owPSY archive])</ref>}}

Edmund expressed some doubts over rumors surrounding Chris's 2021 [[incest]] charge, indicating why he may have been willing to collaborate with Chris. On 14 [[February 2026]], Edmund theorized that rape may not have occurred and also that incest may have occurred because of outside manipulation, or not at all and that Chris imagined the entire thing.<ref name = theorizing/> Edmund later deleted his tweet.

Stoplightguy: /* Game audio */

[[File:Official Mewgenics art.png|thumb|Official promotional art for Mewgenics, referencing the cover of [[Sonichu 0]].]]

'''''Mewgenics''''' is a tactical role-playing roguelike life simulation [[video game]] developed by [[Edmund McMillen]] and Tyler Glaiel. Due to the game's co-creator Edmund McMillen being a [[carpetbagger]] and friend of Chris, it allowed Chris to do voice acting work for the game and have his character [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] explicitly mentioned and referenced in the game. Chris was involved with creating artwork for the ''Mewgenics'' comic, and later teased his involvement with the game itself in the months leading up to its [[Steam]] release on 10 [[February 2026]].

==Game audio==
Chris, along with a long list of other notable Internet figures including [[Geno Samuel]], are in the game's credits for contributing voice lines of meowing. Though [[Liquid Chris]] is credited as a voice actor, it is uncertain if this refers to the original Liquid Chris or "Liquid Ocelot": a user who emerged in 2022 and adopted the Liquid persona to troll Cyrax, a similar lolcow.

==Promoting Mewgenics==
Chris, along with other select people, were mailed a package of promotional ''Mewgenics'' items and merchandise shortly before the game came out. Chris [[Mewgenics Pre Game Goodies Unboxing Video|made a video unboxing it]], though had to reupload it twice due to accidentally revealing info such as Edmund's private email meant only for special people to request a free copy of the game on Steam. Though Chris did have a brief meltdown,<ref>[[January 2026 social media posts#I feel like I hate myself]]</ref> his mistake seemingly had no effect on their collaboration or friendship.

On 28 [[March 2026]], Chris livestreamed [[Mewgenics Let's Play 1 with Jesus Christ Chan Sonichu Prime]].

'''Liquid Chris''' (real name: '''Dr. Christopher Morton Duckworth'''; born July 1990) claimed to be the [[TRUE and HONEST]] Christian Weston Chandler, and the one and only creator of the [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]]. In reality, he was simply an impersonator on [[YouTube]] who initially just made videos to amuse himself and his friends. Chris portrayed Liquid on YouTube and in the PVCC Forums, while his identical twin brother '''Jon Duckworth''', a musician, portrayed him during the Sing-Star Challenge.

Liquid Chris gets his nickname from ''[[Metal Gear|Metal Gear Solid]]'', a video game which featured a storyline of the clone "brother" of the player character, Solid Snake (hence why [[Christian Weston Chandler]] is referred to as Solid Chris in this saga, as he will be for the remainder of this page). Eventually, Solid discovered Liquid, and he actually believed that he was an impostor trying to take credit for his glorious creation, rather than just being an impersonator. Once he was in Solid's sights, Liquid decided to up his game by playing along with his rivalry with Chris-Chan (as did his fans), and became a full-time [[Trolls|troll]].

Liquid insisted that he was the real Chris-Chan, and chose to address his counterpart as the impostor [[Ian Brandon Anderson]], based on the initials of his IBAChandler YouTube username. Liquid eventually got into fights with Solid over [[Kacey]]'s heart, briefly halting production of videos when Liquid was kidnapped by Solid (portrayed by the other twin filming the video). Liquid made a triumphant return to defend Kacey's honor, and they retired from trolling Chris after "getting married". This saddened Chris, though he quickly got over it and moved onto finding another [[sweetheart]] after about a day.

__TOC__

{{clear}}

==Prologue==
On 21 [[June 2009]], Liquid would create his youtube channel 'CChanSonichuCWC', under the premise that he was the real [[Christian Weston Chandler]]. Solid Chris did not notice his channel at first, until 21 [[July 2009]]. Liquid would upload [[CChanSonichuCWC_Videos,_June-July_2009#Now_Selling_the_OFFICIAL_and_ORIGINAL_SONICHU_Merchandise_of_CWC,_NO_FAKERIES_OR_IMPOSTORY|a video]] where he talked about him selling offical [[Sonichu]] merch at Otakun, an anime and video game convention.

This video caught the attention of [[Jack Thaddeus]], who sent the video to his daughter Samantha, stating 'This man was at otakon, He made some MAD CASH! He made an opening confession and all. Tell me what you think?'. In reality, this was [[Solid Chris]] pretending to be Sam in an attempt to get his [[PSN]] accounts back from Jack. Upon seeing the video, Solid would [[REAL_Protest_against_the_FAKE#YouTube_comments_from_Ian|rage in the comments]] and make a [[REAL_Protest_against_the_FAKE#Video|response video]] to Liquid, offically starting the saga.

==A challenger appears==
[[Image:Torture.jpg|Liquid torturing the impostor.|thumb]]
[[Image:Liquid VS Solid.png|"There's room for only one Chris, and one Mayor!" |thumb]]
:''See also: [[CChanSonichuCWC Videos, June-July 2009#Antebellum|Liquid's Antebellum Videos]]''

At the end of the month a new YouTube account, [https://web.archive.org/web/20100522150728/http://www.youtube.com/user/CChanSonichuCWC http://www.youtube.com/user/CChanSonichuCWC], appeared with a simple premise: that the ''real'' Christian Weston Chandler (henceforth '''Liquid Chris''') was back online after a long absence, during which he lost his account to hackers, so all the weirdness on "CChanSonichu" was the work of hacking trolls, and he announced that he was ready to resume posting HONEST content on his new account. This new CWC posted four more videos, much of which were [[parody|parodies]] of earlier videos by Solid Chris.

{{quote|How else would I get fan art, if I was not the original creator of Sonichu?|Liquid Chris, [[CChanSonichuCWC_Videos,_June-July_2009#Update:_I_am_Still_the_Real_Christian_Weston_Chandler_Despite_LIES_AND_SLANDER._Also.2C_Some_Fan_Art|3 July 2009]]}}

Notably, Liquid Chris sported:
* An official [[Sonichu medallion]] (made out of paper, never ''Crayola Fuckin' Model Magic'')
* A [[Chris and fashion|striped shirt]] (brown)
* [[Pedo-Glasses|A pair of rather bulky glasses which would look ridiculous on anybody else.]]
* [[Obesity]] (by means of a stuffed shirt, later removed)
* [[Speech impediment|A distinctive nasal voice]]
* [[Autism]]

All of which, of course, made him almost [[Chris and reality|''indistinguishable'']] from Solid Chris! Solid himself made no comment, probably because he didn't notice the new videos among the chatter of all the other trolling. The alternative — that Solid just ignored them — is far too reasonable to consider.

==Ian Brandon Anderson==
{{main|Ian Brandon Anderson}}

What really cranked this up to eleven was a chain of events that started with Solid Chris getting his "CChanSonichu" channel back: First, Solid posted [[CWC Calls Out Three Naïve YouTubers|a series of videos]] on 10 [[July 2009]] where he "called out" three trolls by their YouTube handles, and dropped their dox (well, dropped "supposed states of residence"). That resulted in the permanent banhammer for "CChanSonichu".

The next piece fell into place when he posted his [[Rollin' and Trollin']] video on his new YouTube account, "[[IBAChandler]]". When it hit [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], newfags everywhere momentarily lost control of their bowels, thinking they'd been trolled by a grand master. Trolls, however, did what trolls do best: they started riffing on it. Pretty quickly, YouTube comments popped up referring to Solid as "Ian Brandon Anderson". Such was the price of success for Solid's small drop of near win in his sea of epic fail: he had delivered unto his enemies a weapon that they'd use for months.

Even then, the damage control from that episode would have probably kept him from noticing Liquid's videos. Liquid, however, then raised the stakes in an attempt to get Solid's attention.

==The CWCivil War==

:''See Also: [[CChanSonichuCWC Videos, June-July 2009#The CWCivil|Liquid's CWCivil War Videos]]''

The war began on 21 July, when Liquid uploaded a [[CChanSonichuCWC Videos, June-July 2009#Now Selling the OFFICIAL and ORIGINAL SONICHU Merchandise of CWC, NO FAKERIES OR IMPOSTOR|video]] that reeled Solid in hook, line, and sinker, having sold Sonichu merchandise with [[Samantha Thaddeus]] at Otakon. A rebuttal was in order:

{{quotebox|DO NOT BUY from the Impostor, "<nowiki>http://www.youtube.com/user/CChanSonichuCWC CWCCChanSonichuCWC</nowiki>". HE IS CRAPPY, and [[Chris and English|his Nasal Voice]] is JUST DOWNRIGHT AWFUL.

Also, if I wanted to buy PAPER, I'd go to [[Wal-Mart]] and buy 500 FULL 8.5 X 11 Sheets for about 5 dollars!

HIS CHURCH? HE MUST LIVE IN FRICKIN' OHIO with "[[Julie]]"; [[Chris and hypocrisy|NEVER DRIVES GREATER THAN 7 Hours]] JUST TO EVEN VISIT [[Wesley Memorial]] in [[VIRGINIA]].

F*** HIM TO HELL!<ref name="realprotest">[[REAL Protest against the FAKE]]</ref>}}

Solid also took time out from his busy schedule to post threats on Liquid's YouTube comments:

{{quotebox|'''The Final Showdown'''

Hey, DUMBASS! [[Chris and his ego|YOU WISH YOU WERE ME]]! I would say YOU are Stuck... IN MINUS-SECOND-GEAR!

But "Naive" is even WORSE than NAILS.

You are a Nerd and a Whimp!

Have a good day. 
Christopher Christian Weston Chandler<ref name="realprotest"/>}}

Even at this point, Solid Chris still may have let this all go, as he was simultaneously getting blackmailed by [[Jack Thaddeus]], who was holding his [[PSN]] account to ransom. But as that wound down, Liquid caught Solid's eye again, by picking up on the Ian Brandon Anderson meme:

{{quotebox|Hello, again, Loyal Fans,

It is I again, Christian Weston Chandler. NOT Christopher Christian Weston Chandler as EVERYONE KNOWS I Changed my name FROM Christopher to Christian (PS: That Troll, as Some have now Informed Me, his Real Name is IAN BRANDON ANDERSON). Anyway, I am Working Very Hard on Sonichu 9 and Things may be Progressing Heavily with my new TRUE [[Gal-Pal]] [[Kacey]] and I. Also, Expect more Announcements of this Developing Caliber in the Future.

Stay True.

===The battleground===

For whatever reason, Solid dug up an old video of himself failing at ''Guitar Hero'' and dumped it online. Liquid shot back with a TRUE and HONEST rendition on a real guitar.

====Spanish Challenge====
[[Image:Cestnepas.jpg|thumb|Ceci n'est pas une Chris.]]

More [[I Am The TRUE, Original CCWC|video rage]] followed before Solid attempted a cunning plan:

{{quote|También. Mi presente. Responde en español bueño. ¿Si no que bueño? Tu no eres el verdad. Tu eres el impostor.|Solid Chris, ''[[CWC Update 29 July 2009]]''}}

The plan backfired when [[CWC Update 29 July 2009#Liquid's_response|Liquid responded more fluently in Spanish, French, German, and Japanese]].

====''SingStar'' Challenge====

{{quote|Alright, Christian, Mr. Brown-Striped Impostor, since you have been able to accept and complete my question challenges, it is time to issue a new challenge.|Solid Chris, [[SingStar Challenge|"''SingStar'' Challenge"]]}}

And then he shaved his goatee off. Dry. With a safety razor.

As expected, the contest went to Liquid, the absolute chad, and Solid, as always, was a sore loser about it. Liquid had a tally of four votes in favor, two against. He then took his leave from the competition, after announcing a number of personal coups:
* That he'd finally found a true sweetheart, [[Kacey]].
* That he'd landed a job as a Production Manager and Game Designer at [[Microsoft]] for a ''Sonichu'' game for all consoles.
* That Dark Horse Comics would be publishing his [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comics]], making him even more filthy rich, with the opening of the CWCStore.

And finally, that he had decided to stop battling the Solid, and move out of his parents' house to live in Redmond, Seattle, to continue his happy, successful life.

==="SHOWDOWN"===
{{Main|SHOWDOWN: The TRUE CWC Confronts The FAKE}}

{{Quote|You’re breaking my balls here.|Solid, [[SHOWDOWN|"SHOWDOWN"]]}}

On 9 [[August 2009]], Liquid called Solid up and confronted him over the slanderous lies he was telling on YouTube. Solid tried reason, and when that failed, he threatened to get Liquid arrested for identity theft, dragging Bob into the debacle along the way:

{{quotebox|If you DO NOT COME CLEAN RIGHT NOW, I am going to get my father in on this further, and you are going to get FUCKING ARRESTED, THROWN IN JAIL AND YOU WILL NOT GET TO LIVE THE PEACEFUL, HAPPY LIFE THAT KACEY AND I WOULD LIKE ''YOU'' TO LIVE, BECAUSE KACEY REALLY CARES FOR YOU, ''MAN''!<ref>[[SHOWDOWN|"SHOWDOWN"]]</ref>}}

==="I, Christian Weston Chandler of Ruckersville, Virginia, Have Grown Up."===
On 14 August 2009, Liquid announced that he was departing YouTube for the time being to pursue turning his ''Sonichu'' series into an acclaimed media franchise.

Of course, this sent Solid completely over the deep end. First, he raged:

{{quote|STOP THAT IMPOSTOR BASTARD WHO HAS BEEN POSING WITH MY NAME, MY ADDRESS, MY PHONE NUMBER, EVERYTHING! STOP HIM! HE DESERVES NOTHING!|Solid Chris, [[NO D*** WAY, IMPOSTOR!!!|"NO D*** WAY, IMPOSTOR!!!"]]}}

Then, he tried reason:

{{quote|The ''Singstar'' Challenge was NEVER to verify who was the real Christian Weston Chandler, because everyone on the [[Internet]] knows that I am, he's the impostor. They should quit encouraging him. And I wish that he would stop his stupid, damn, dirty game. I don't know what the heck is wrong with his head. [''his voice gets higher''] He ain't right.

And as summer disappeared, so too did Liquid Chris: The apparent victim of foul play. Viewer discretion is advised, as the next video is extremely disturbing.

Chris's sweetheart, [[Kacey]], was distraught over the event and posted a video confirming Chris's disappearance and announcing her withdrawal from their engagement. The following day, Chris left a comment on the video:
{{quotebox|Let's Examine this situation:

==CWCivil War II: Kacey Boogaloo==
[[Image:Megatron_pistol2.jpg|thumb|Chris's solution to Boyfriends.]]
{{Main|Kacey}}

Liquid Chris reappeared on 15 [[October 2009]] with a new video explaining the trials and tribulations of the past few months, and igniting a heated love triangle with Solid for Kacey's affections. According to Liquid, he had been unlawfully detained in a meat-packing factory, and when he managed to escape, he found himself in Africa. With the assistance of a few others, Liquid managed to make his triumphant return to Ruckersville, and the stage was set from there on out.

In the [[Greetings to Kaceys Folks|video]] addressed to Kacey's parents, Solid called him '''"the previous Chris"'''. In a [[11052009 Kacey, I Love You, and I Need You|desperate video for Kacey]], Solid called him '''"the other Chris"''' repeatedly.

When the dust had settled, Solid's behavior had [[Father Call|offended Kacey's father]] and, through his immaturity, pushed Kacey back into the loving TRUE and HONEST arms of the Liquid.

==Epilogue==
[[File:Liquid and Kacey.jpeg|thumb|250px|<s>Liquid</s> Chris and Kacey, happily married.]]
[[File:Liquid Chris.jpg|thumb|200px|[[TSSSF]] card Chris made of Liquid, eight years after the closing of the saga.]]

Liquid Chris is now married to his beloved sweetheart, [[Kacey]]. As the one TRUE and HONEST creator of Sonichu, his artwork and comics are extremely popular and he often attracts many beautiful [[boyfriend-free girl]]s with his medallions and his [[Gitar of Fail|Guitar of Win]].

After Solid Chris [[The MovingFoward videos|destroyed his PS3]] in an attempt to get a $9000 bounty, [[Surfshack Tito]] would mistakenly give the money to Liquid, under the belief that he was Solid.

Liquid makes mad [[Clyde Cash|cash]] by selling said medallions at Otakon and other [[anime]] [[Anime Mid-Atlantic|conventions]] while voicing Solid in ''[[Sonichu the Animated Series|Sonichu: The Animated Series]]''. He has also made several hundred thousand dollars from his two critically acclaimed games, ''[[Pokémon: Lightning Version]]'' and ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles'' for the [[Nintendo|Nintendo DS]] and [[HEXBox|Xbox 360]], respectively. On 27 July 2011, Liquid bid fond faredieu to the trolling universe on YouTube by closing his account.

Solid Chris then considered Liquid Chris a friend.

After Chris Duckworth abandoned his Liquid Chris persona, he acquired a BS in oncology, and he currently works as a cancer research doctor.<ref>https://www.targetedonc.com/view/tumor-growth-angiogenesis-ovarian-cancer-linked-to-key-adapter-protein</ref> Time will tell if his findings will bring us one step closer to the cure.

While Chris Duckworth has retired from trolling Solid Chris, he recorded a [[parody]] of the theme song to ''{{w|The Cleveland Show}}'' at some point prior to [[November 2015]], when the video was reuploaded. The song was eventually animated as ''[[The Chris-Chan Show]]'' in [[November 2020]], which attracted the attention of Solid. "Liquid Chris" was also featured as a voice actor in 2026 game [[Mewgenics]], though it is uncertain if this was Duckworth himself, or a separate troll who had adopted the persona of Liquid Chris in 2022 in attempts to provoke lolcow Chance Wilkins (Cyrax).

In the years since, Solid eventually forgot about much of the Liquid Chris saga.<ref>[[Idea Guy Q&A]]</ref> However, in fall [[2019]] Chris created a [[TSSSF]] card of Liquid Chris, showing he still held some animosity towards him – the card describes Liquid as a villain utilizing "pretentious acting". During a [[February 2024]] [[February 2024 livestreams#Part 2|livestream]], Chris [[Chris and reality|refused to believe]] that Liquid Chris was a doctor, and said Liquid was "trapped in his own stupor and mentality and arrogance and everything".

===Farewell to Trolling===
After ending his saga, Liquid wrote a long farewell to trolling, before leaving the 'inner circle' <ref>[[User:Bystander/Liquid's letter]] Note that [[Clyde Cash]] himself edited the page</ref>. Some people think that details such as Liquid trolling Solid for the recognition of [[Wikipedia:Hayden Panettiere|Hayden Panettiere]] and being a conservative are ironic, but former trolls have confirmed that these are both unironic<ref> https://kiwifarms.pl/threads/random-thoughts-questions.49854/page-734</ref>.

{{quote|He originally did it to impress Hayden Panettiere. He was contacted by someone from PVCC (might've been champ, I forgot who). He was a conservative. The rest of the stuff is all legit.
|Former PVCC member 'Hollywood Hulk Hogan'}}

{{collapsible|Farewell to Trolling|It was March of 2009 that I discovered Chris-Chan thanks to an anonymous source. Slowly, at first, and then knowing in horror the full extent; it was like watching an accident happen in slow motion and then all of a sudden the car explodes and the passengers’ burned carcasses are ejected onto a bridge, causing havoc and crashes and ultimately wrecking the bridge. That’s what Chris-Chan was like to my life.

But I still worked diligently and carried on with life as normal, as much as I possibly could, with the disturbing knowledge creeping silently in the back of my mind.

On June 21, 2009, I realized that I had a problem. I had some irrational crush on Hayden Panettiere. It was summer, I was stuck at home, there’d be no hope of going to L.A. and getting some fairy-tale like treatment and ending up together with her and living happily ever after. So I thought. What could I do to express my anguish at possibly never coming in contact with her or gaining her attention? I had to gain her attention. Do something… strange, and epic. Something that would dispel my boredom. I thought of the Chris-Chan impersonation I’d been doing off-and-online Left 4 Dead on Xbox live.

So I went into my guest room and typed up a script containing most of my favorite Chris-Chan lines. It wasn’t that great of a script, and it was a dumb idea. It was also one in the morning, which meant that if I talked louder than usual, my dad’d wake up with supersonic hearing and bust my ass and make me go to sleep. I obtained an awkward-looking brown and tan polo. I turned on the camera and I just let it all out.

About a week later, I saw that the creator of Sonichu: The Animated Series commented on the impression I’d posted. Though, in my mind, it was still more about Hayden Panettiere than getting recognized for a good impersonation. Still, I was quite surprised, to say the least. I quickly responded in kind and then put up another video, this time addressing him. He was impressed and asked me to start voicing Chris-Chan for the Animated Series.

I was honored and flattered that his crew didn’t reject my attempt at being funny. I made friends with the lot of them and then joined their production team, Stretch Douche. We talked quite a bit on Skype. It was the first time in a while I’d really felt involved with an internet community, so I kept it going.

Soon enough, one of the editors of the CWCki, Champthom, contacted me on my Youtube account. He asked if I’d make a specialized video talking about my Sonichu merchandise, since someone had told Chris that someone else was selling them at Otakon. Already knee-deep in the CWC stuff, I couldn’t refuse the offer.

Then, on July 22, Chris-Chan posted a video. Rage that he hadn’t shown since the days of Clyde Cash and Jimmy Hill. And it was all directed… at me. I woke up that morning, signed on Skype, and Spazkid instantly told me all about what happened. I went to check the video and I was stunned. Stunned would be an understatement. I’d realized that Hayden Panettiere was no longer relevant. I’d gotten Chris to respond to me. To me. A random Youtube user. It wasn’t ‘til later that I’d learn the Field Agents were more involved.

I’d applied to PVCC about a month earlier with the nickname “KneelToGeneralZod.” It got lost in the void and I never received a reply. Another Youtuber who described himself as “Bryan Bash” contacted me and offered to get me right into the PVCC. Already I felt like I’d accomplished enough, that this was as good as it was going to get and perhaps I should stop making videos for lord knows what could happen if everyone suddenly stopped playing along.

I went on the PVCC for the first time to find out how big of a deal it was; this was a much larger, active community than I’d ever expected. People who I’d never heard before were hailing my actions as heroic, and blessed them for producing a bounty of beautiful tard-rage. I made my first post, and people knew I was there.

It wasn’t long before I made another video. This time, I doubled down on CWC’s jealousy and showed off the “merch” I’d taken a couple hours to gather together beforehand. It was a hit. Obviously, “the man in the brown striped shirt” was getting to him.

Things were quiet. I enjoyed the Animated Series episodes remade with my own voice with ferocity. Then, I got an invitation from Yoko to join the Mumble chats. I’d heard only vaguely about Mumble, the things I did know were that Chris actually used the program to talk with Clyde Cash, and that it was a sister version of Skype. I followed Yoko’s instructions and fell through the rabbit hole.

It took me a second to realize who I was surrounded by. The only familiar faces were Yoko and Champthom. Everyone else was an enigma, until—near the bottom of the screen, NO, it couldn’t have been. Clyde Cash? The legend himself? I simply remember thinking that if this was indeed Clyde, then everyone else here was important. What had I stumbled upon? What had I gotten myself into? I don’t know any of these guys. I’m just some kid who did a Chris-Chan impersonation. And, yet, here I was in the central of the ‘inner circle,’ the ‘dedicated trolls.’

I couldn’t help but feel humbled. They accepted me as one of their own. I was in shock to meet, never mind befriend some extremely important people that I’d only just read about and admired. Clyde, Bluespike, Ivy, Emily, canine, and many others. Each with their own saga or contribution. This can’t be happening, I thought. But it did. And the story unfolded right before my very eyes. I collaborated with Clyde to make a fake Mumble chat. I tricked some hipsters who wanted to make money off of Chris-Chan. I got my own ED page with nothing but praise, eventually being featured on the front page for an entire day. Keep in mind, this ‘inner circle’ was with me the entire way. I can’t thank them enough.

Now, however, it’s time for me to make my long-overdue au revoir. People don’t know where I’ve been for the last two or three weeks. I haven’t talked to my best friend in three weeks. I’ve tried everything I could to manage my life and not look like a basement dweller. But it’s not who I am. The real me is an ambitious, overly-driven young man studying and working to become an M.D., eventually a surgeon. But I can’t have these dual lives and expect to have time for it all. I have to pick one, and I think it’s pretty clear which road I’m taking.

School for me starts soon. I’ve got time before then to catch up on my studies, but it’s not going to be easy. It is, however, necessary. And I hate to say it but even though I want to be around to find out what goes on behind the scenes after my “saga” is over, I can’t.

It’s been fantastic, invidious, terrifying, and gut-bustingly hilarious. But I’ve got to return to normal life. It’s simply gone on too long for me. And if you think that I’m being way too self-centered here, well, I am. And I’m sorry. But it’s the only way. I feel a certain sadness by leaving you all with no prior acknowledgement. However, it IS the only way. If I can say a few things before I’m gone, I’d like to.

Admins: Please ban my account after I post this message. I can’t be tempted to distraction, and it kills me that I won’t get to say goodbye to anyone individually after this whole ordeal.

PVCC, en generale: You’ve all been awesome to me. More than I deserve. Keep on doing what you’re doing, because you’re doing it right. I hope you’ll keep the spirit of how awesome this was alive.

Mumble: I’m sorry I can’t do as many CWC impersonations for you, whether reading emails, joking around, or tricking people or Chris himself. I do apologize for that. Well, you're cool people. You're the nerdiest fucking people that I've ever met in my life and my friends would disown me if they ever knew I was associating myself with you, but you’re just great.

My ego: I’m sorry that the gigantic boost has to end. But I can only keep a fine balance between humbleness and elitism, and you know that.

Clyde: I’m sorry we never got to debate politics. You seem quite progressive to me, a stark, conservative Republican. We’d have a hell of a time discussing history and policy. And I’ll get those audiobook lines to you, soon.

Gen: Thanks for being such a good sport. Your life is horrible and cursed, and I’m glad I could make it better for at least a bit. Anyone who put me in fan art: Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m keeping all of it.

It’s hard to talk about all this like tomorrow will be the same. But I’m going now. Maybe you’ll hear about me pioneering some surgical technique or medical research. Maybe you’ll read my column in the paper or hear my radio show. I don’t know what the future holds, but trolling can’t be a part of it anymore, and I’m crushed to admit that.

I didn’t think I’d make nearly as many friends and acquaintances over the summer as I have right here, and on Youtube. It’ll be hard to leave you all like this. I didn’t think I’d make any new friends at all. But you have proven me wrong. I have one final request, for all of you that are reading this or have scrolled to the bottom since it’s tl;dr: Please, if my true identity does get leaked (which it almost certainly will), I ask that you’ll do what you can to keep it under wraps.

Cover for me, if you will. Be vigilant. Believe. And thank you all so very, very much.

Sincerely, CChanSonichuCWC

PS: I JUST WON THE GAME :awesome:}}

==Irony==
[[File:Liquidd.jpg|thumb|left|Solid acts as Liquid, in [[100 2270|"100 2270"]].]]
[[Image:LiquidChrisBelieveInMe.jpg|thumb|BELIEVE.]]

Solid has mocked Liquid on several points:

* [[Speech impediment|His nasal tone.]]
* [[Chris and fashion|His brown striped shirt.]]
* [[Chris and money|Actually making money off ''Sonichu''.]]
* [[Obesity|His appearance.]]

It's a bad sign when one is fighting a mirror, and worse when the mirror is winning, worse still if it is a fun-house mirror made especially to [[parody|mock]] you.

In early August 2009,<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate August 3rd, 2009]]</ref> Solid began to believe that Liquid couldn't be the real Chris because only the real Christian Weston Chandler is a [[Slow-in-the-minds|retard]] who is the laughing stock of the Internet. Therefore, the fact that Liquid isn't trolled and doesn't do dumb shit suggests that he isn't the real Chris. Of course, previously mentioned theories seem to disprove this assertion.

In a further fit of irony, Solid ended up impersonating Liquid in a bizarre attempt to woo Liquid's girlfriend, [[Kacey]]. Solid also impersonated Liquid, who was impersonating him impersonating...or something...in "[[100 2270]]".

Additionally, regarding the story of ''Metal Gear Solid'', one might initially believe that Liquid Snake (the "clone") inherited all of the "flawed recessive" genes, while Solid Snake (the original) inherited the dominant genes, but in reality, it's the total opposite. Going back to Christory, this ties in with how Liquid Chris is better than Solid Chris in every way.

== In the comic ==
[[Image:TrueAndHonestCWCArt.jpg|The impostor [[Chris]] stole his famous lecture to the [[Jerkops]] from the real Chris.|thumb|left]]
[[Image:Ibachandlercroppedsmaller.jpg|Beel explains Liquid's fate|thumb|top|right]]

[[Image:Liquids_end.png|The commission as first seen in Ben Saint's lecture|thumb|top|right]]

Despite being one of the most important events in Christory, the Liquid Saga is addressed in only two pages within the entirety of ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]''. On 17 [[November 2009]], Liquid made his very first appearance in Solid' Chris's [[Sonichu 9|''Sonichu'' #9]]. Solid, being the slanderous impostor that he is, had the nerve to claim that Liquid's name was Ian Brandon Anderson, and once again tried (and failed) to convince everyone that he was the TRUE and ORIGINAL creator of the [[Sonichu]] franchise.

Chris planned a future plot where [[Giovanni]] captured [[Rosechu]] and forced [[Christian Weston Chandler (comic character)|Chris]] to cede control over [[CWCville]] to Liquid. This, however, has yet to be done.<ref>[[CWC Blog#20 November 2009]]</ref>

Since Liquid's fate in the comic remained nebulous at best, [[Ben Saint]] commissioned a piece from Solid Chris that explained Liquid's ultimate fate. To the surprise of Saint himself, Chris actually delivered. The piece was revealed in a YouTube lecture by Saint on the timeline of the Sonichu canon<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFOIauPQ5XI&t=4424s Sonichu 101: A CWC Lecture]</ref> and included commentary by [[Beel]], [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]], [[Rosechu]] and Chris himself.

{{quote|So, you want to know the fate of the past impostor of Christian, as the original person was known? Simply put, [[IBAChandler]], he was dragged down to [[14 Branchland Court|hell]], punished of identity theft, and all of his memories and past incarnations reset. His soul was born a fresh blank into a newborn child, and his old body was burned in Hell's lava pool.|[[Beel]] in the commissioned art.}}

However, [[Sonichu 13]] its mentioned that an "Ian Brandon Anderson" was elected as the head police chief of [[CWCville]]. Whether these two were meant to be the same character (thus making the commissioned comic page non-canon) or a totally different person with a similar name was never explained.<ref>[[:File:Sonichu 16 page-13.JPG]]</ref>

The Binding of Isaac

2024-04-22T20:34:17Z

Stoplightguy: correction to my earlier edit. Chris doesn't compare his situation to isaac: from what ive read, I think it was just the dream that he was talking about.

[[File:Tainted Isaac Card.jpg|Card artwork Chris contributed to ''The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls'' (subsequently cancelled)|thumb|200px]]
'''''The Binding of Isaac''''' is a [[video game]] themed around [[religion]] - in particular a mother who believes she hears God tell her that her son is corrupted with sin and must be saved by removing the evil from him. ''Isaac'' also exists as a card game, whose creator contacted Chris requesting his contribution for a card artwork (which was cancelled following Chris's [[incest]] scandal).

==Planned card==

On 17 [[June 2021]], ''Isaac'' creator Edmund McMillen (a fan and financial [[enabler]] of Chris's)<ref>https://twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1375915078881452034</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1480801675665293312</ref> tweeted Tainted Isaac (or "The Broken") card's artwork, crediting Chris and saying "it was a huge honor to feature her work as an alt card, please send her your love (be kind!)".

The Binding of Isaac

2024-04-22T20:31:05Z

Stoplightguy: The Binding of Isaac is also a bible story, since Chris admitted to not knowning much about the game I think it's very possible that he was talking about the bible story instead of the game.

[[File:Tainted Isaac Card.jpg|Card artwork Chris contributed to ''The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls'' (subsequently cancelled)|thumb|200px]]
'''''The Binding of Isaac''''' is a [[video game]] themed around [[religion]] - in particular a mother who believes she hears God tell her that her son is corrupted with sin and must be saved by removing the evil from him. ''Isaac'' also exists as a card game, whose creator contacted Chris requesting his contribution for a card artwork (which was cancelled following Chris's [[incest]] scandal).

==Planned card==

On 17 [[June 2021]], ''Isaac'' creator Edmund McMillen (a fan and financial [[enabler]] of Chris's)<ref>https://twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1375915078881452034</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/edmundmcmillen/status/1480801675665293312</ref> tweeted Tainted Isaac (or "The Broken") card's artwork, crediting Chris and saying "it was a huge honor to feature her work as an alt card, please send her your love (be kind!)". Chris replied to the tweet, giving his thoughts on the design of the card. In his tweet, Chris mentioned he had not yet played the ''Isaac'' game and had gotten a basic rundown from watching [[WatchMojo]] clips.<ref>[[June 2021 social media posts#Edmund McMillen]]</ref>

Chris in the media

2022-03-25T19:22:33Z

Stoplightguy: /* The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls */

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

[[File:Dailyprogress print cville pride cwc.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in his [[unicorn cosplay]].]]

A decade later, on 16 [[September 2017]], Chris was photographed by ''Daily Progress'' staff at a [[Cville Pride]] event.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/gallery/cville-pride-festival/collection_58055de6-9b2a-11e7-b098-83d0250a47fb.html#tncms-source=endcard-gallery</ref>

==== 2021 ====
Chris would make the pages of the ''Daily Progress'' yet again on 2 [[August 2021]], this time in connection with his arrest for incest.<ref>https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/greene-county-woman-charged-with-incest/article_fbee4158-f3db-11eb-9ebc-bf432f1c0e8f.html</ref>

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes'' ===
[[File:OkKOstoryboard.jpg|thumb|The original storyboard initially made the reference more blatant]]
In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells her son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

===UVA Remembers Pulse===

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

==Proposed media roles==
===Smiling Friends===
In an interview with The Create Unknown podcast, Zach Hadel and Michael Cusak, showrunners of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon Smiling Friends, discussed that they had planned for Chris to be offered a voice role in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice a grease puddle in a brief one-off role in the episode "Who Violently Murdered Simon S. Salty?", however, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - prevented them being able to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06R7mspyoRw</ref>

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' on the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:02 in the link.

The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===3GI===

McMillen also follows Chris' twitter account, and has stated during a follow-up livestream that his favorite saga was the Megan Saga and the creation of the first few issues of Sonichu. He later commissioned Chris to create artwork for the Binding of Isaac: Four Souls card game, but the commission was rescinded on 1 August 2021, in light of the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] allegations.<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/isaacfoursouls/the-binding-of-isaac-4-souls-requiem/posts/3254814</ref>

Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff.

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

Stoplightguy: /* The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls */

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

A decade later, on 16 [[September 2017]], Chris was photographed by ''Daily Progress'' staff at a [[Cville Pride]] event.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/gallery/cville-pride-festival/collection_58055de6-9b2a-11e7-b098-83d0250a47fb.html#tncms-source=endcard-gallery</ref>

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells her son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

==Proposed media roles==
===Smiling Friends===
In an interview with The Create Unknown podcast, Zach Hadel and Michael Cusak, showrunners of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon Smiling Friends, discussed that they had planned for Chris to be offered a voice role in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice a grease puddle in a brief one-off role in the episode "Who Violently Murdered Simon S. Salty?", however, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - prevented them being able to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06R7mspyoRw</ref>

On 5 [[December 2009]] American socialite {{w|Nicole Richie}} posted on [[Twitter]]<ref>[http://twitpic.com/s7pfi]</ref> an image of Chris in his [[Barbara Chandler|mother]]'s underwear and humorously presented it as a picture of {{w|Benji Madden}}, brother of her then boyfriend (now husband) {{w|Joel Madden}}.

===Sega Acknowledges Sonichu===
On 13 [[January 2012]], Sonichu was briefly mentioned during a "Free Stuff Friday" video on Sega of America's YouTube channel.

'''Female Employee''': Sonichu?

While this is not [[TRUE and HONEST]] Sonichu [[Jimmy Hill|merchandise]], it does show at least some Sega employees are aware of Sonichu's existence. Jump to 3:50 in the linked video.

===Smosh===
Chris's Sonic Totem statue was featured one Smosh's site, via the 'Smosh Pit' section which mostly contains articles, countdowns, and memes.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

On 1 [[January 2015]], the Wii U Daily article about the 26 December 2014 incident was linked to another subreddit, r/rage.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/rage/comments/2r0kyh/man_maces_gamestop_employee_over_sonic_boom/ Man maces employee over Sonic Boom: rage]</ref>

===''Sonic the Hedgehog'' Twitter===
On June 10, 2015, a fan asked the official [[Twitter]] account of [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] (which has been verified and everything) if [[Sonichu]] will be playable in ''[[Sonic Boom]]: Fire & Ice''.<ref>https://archive.is/eWfjQ</ref> Their response?

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' on the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:02 in the link.

The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===3GI===
{{main|Shrek Retold}}
On 15 November 2018, a Youtuber by the name of 3GI released a trailer for ''Shrek Retold'', a feature-length collaboration of the first Shrek movie.

Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff.

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]].

Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh.

{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}.

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

It was listed in the [http://www.smosh.com/smosh-pit/photos/people-who-tried-crafts-pinterest-and-totally-nailed-it?_rtu=TFS6IVnISRKfI2Vc%2BgJJHA%2B '22 People Who Tried Crafts On Pinterest and TOTALLY NAILED IT'] article.

===IMDb===
Chris has his own IMDb entry page. To date he only has two credits, both in the "archive footage" category; the aforementioned ''=3'' video, and the later WTFIWWY segment.<ref>[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4813395/ IMDb page]</ref>

===Wii U Daily===
The website Wii U Daily (now known as Nintendo Today) has an article on the [[GameStop]] incident that occurred on [[26 December 2014]].<ref>[http://wiiudaily.com/2014/12/man-maces-gamestop-employee-over-sonic-boom/ Man maces GameStop employee over Sonic Boom | Wii U]</ref> Chris eventually found the article, then proceeded to go on a long rambling on Facebook on why the writer should respect him and his terrible ways--even going as far to call the writer a horrible male, despite the writer being ''fe''male.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

On 1 [[January 2015]], the Wii U Daily article about the 26 December 2014 incident was linked to another subreddit, r/rage.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/rage/comments/2r0kyh/man_maces_gamestop_employee_over_sonic_boom/ Man maces employee over Sonic Boom: rage]</ref>

On 1 [[September 2016]], a post which promised a new Chris [[saga|story]] every day of the following month was submitted to the r/CringeAnarchy subreddit.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/CringeAnarchy/comments/50q2rb/announcing_chris_history_month/ Announcing Chris History Month! : CringeAnarchy]</ref> The subreddit's background image was replaced accordingly with the [[:File:0782-CWCSpread.JPG|classic picture of Chris]] [[creepy stare|staring creepily into the void]].

===Design & Trend===
On 30 December 2014, defunct website Design & Trend also posted an article about the 26 December 2014 incident.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150102005936/http://www.designntrend.com:80/articles/33011/20141230/gamestop-maced-shocking-assault-sonic-fanboy-over-sonics-arms-sonichu-jailed-watch.htm GameStop Employee Maced In Shocking Assault By 'Sonic' Fanboy Over Sonic's Arms: 'Sonichu' Creator Jailed]</ref> The article link was apparently [[Twitter|tweeted]] 15 times, according to the website.

===''Sonic the Hedgehog'' Twitter===
On June 10, 2015, a fan asked the official [[Twitter]] account of [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] (which has been verified and everything) if [[Sonichu]] will be playable in ''[[Sonic Boom]]: Fire & Ice''.<ref>https://archive.is/eWfjQ</ref> Their response?

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===Crave Online Australia===
[[File:ChrisSonichuSupanova.png|thumb|200px|Cosplayers as Christian and Sonichu at Supanova Sydney in 2015]]
Crave Online, a website showcasing various video coverage from games, films, sports, and others topics covered a convention in [[PandaHalo|Australia]] called Supanova in 2015.

===The Jimquisition===
In his review of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2 3D'' for the 3DS, Jim Sterling gives a list of reasons why the original ''Sonic 2'' was an all-time classic. In this list, Jim mentions that the game is "a great way to meet [[boyfriend-free girl]]s," and also makes reference to the blue arms controversy.<ref>[http://www.thejimquisition.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-2-3d-review/]</ref>

===Adam Baldwin's twitter===
On 5 December 2015, actor {{w|Adam Baldwin}} tweeted an image showing photos of various people who are either opposed or supporitve of GamerGate. At the top of the image on its far left side a picture of Chris can be seen.<ref>[https://archive.is/2oxcX]</ref> The tweet was later on deleted.<ref>[https://twitter.com/adambaldwin/status/673221909681602560]</ref>

===Return of Kings===
Chris has an article and is commonly used as an example of an "omega" on the Kings Wiki, the wiki of controversial neomasculinity group Return of Kings.<ref>[http://www.returnofkings.com/21749/the-most-omega-place-on-the-internet]</ref>

===Zip Zap===
{{Infobox/video

German-American ranter Zip Zap made a slight nod to Chris Chan when comparing a pedophile named Manglenn to him, even adding [[I Recycle My Own Semen|"at least [Manglenn] doesn't recycle his own semen... not from what we know"]].

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

{{quote|What will happen when we have the first [[A Public Announcement for Congress|presidential campaign]] featuring a [[Tomgirl Saga|genderqueer]] [[Chris-chan Sonichu|furry]] who has [[Chris Chan Update 21 October 2008|videos of himself crying on YouTube]] because someone insulted his [[My Little Pony]] drawings? We know, don't we, what the first social justice president will look like.|Milo Yiannopoulos, exhibiting a photo of Chris}}

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' on the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:02 in the link.

In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===3GI===
{{main|Shrek Retold}}
On 15 November 2018, a Youtuber by the name of 3GI released a trailer for ''Shrek Retold'', a feature-length collaboration of the first Shrek movie. It featured over 200 contributors, each with their own styles. One of them is none other than Chris himself. The collab was released on 29 November 2018. Chris's work is in the 0:55 mark.

McMillen also follows Chris' twitter account, and has stated during a follow-up livestream that his favorite saga was the Megan Saga and the creation of the first few issues of Sonichu. He later commissioned Chris to create artwork for the Binding of Isaac: Four Souls card game, but the commission was rescinded on 1 August 2021, in light of the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] allegations.<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/isaacfoursouls/the-binding-of-isaac-4-souls-requiem/posts/3254814</ref>

===Angry Video Game Nerd===
On 15 March 2021 the Angry Video Game Nerd uploaded a review of a Shrek Gameboy Color game. In that review a character was wearing a Shrek medallion that looked awfully similar to the [[Sonichu Medallion]].

'''Chris himself [[2009-2016 tweets#10 November 2016.1|tweeted]] the article on 10 November'''.

Daniel "Keemstar" Keem, host of the drama YouTube account Drama Alert, [https://mobile.twitter.com/KEEMSTAR/status/796281178030567424 tweeted] at Chris and alerted the Secret Service.

Sky Williams, a YouTube gamer with nearly a million subscribers, [https://twitter.com/SkyWilliams/status/796282670959366144 retweeted] Chris's post and added the comment, "k so this shit isn't okay - can we report this?".

Conservative website HillaryDaily.com featured the tweet in an [http://hillarydaily.com/brandon/2016/11/10/radical-left-now-threatening-to-assassinate-donald-trump/ article] on 10 November.

==Incest charge==
On 1 August 2021, Chris was arrested and charged for engaging in incest with his [[mother]]. Multiple media outlets reported on it.

=== Daily Mail ===
The ''Daily Mail'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 3 August 2021.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9857365/Trans-YouTuber-Chris-Chan-faces-incest-charges-involving-79-year-old-dementia-suffering-mom.html</ref>

=== Dnes ===
Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff. The article noted that Chris was charged with incest and held without bond and that additional charges were pending.<ref>https://www.cbs19news.com/story/44432363/suspect-arrested-in-sex-crimes-against-family-member-case</ref>

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

===''McPixel''===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

===''Goat Simulator''===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-Chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''Heartbeat''===
In the 2018 RPG ''Heartbeat'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]]. His battle [[CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero|theme is Holding Out For a Hero]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

===The Jimquisition===
In his review of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2 3D'' for the 3DS, Jim Sterling gives a list of reasons why the original ''Sonic 2'' was an all-time classic. In this list, Jim mentions that the game is "a great way to meet [[boyfriend-free girl]]s," and also makes reference to the blue arms controversy.<ref>[http://www.thejimquisition.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-2-3d-review/]</ref>

===Adam Baldwin's twitter===
On 5 December 2015, actor {{w|Adam Baldwin}} tweeted an image showing photos of various people who are either opposed or supporitve of GamerGate. At the top of the image on its far left side a picture of Chris can be seen.<ref>[https://archive.is/2oxcX]</ref> The tweet was later on deleted.<ref>[https://twitter.com/adambaldwin/status/673221909681602560]</ref>

German-American ranter Zip Zap made a slight nod to Chris Chan when comparing a pedophile named Manglenn to him, even adding [[I Recycle My Own Semen|"at least [Manglenn] doesn't recycle his own semen... not from what we know"]].

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

{{quote|What will happen when we have the first [[A Public Announcement for Congress|presidential campaign]] featuring a [[Tomgirl Saga|genderqueer]] [[Chris-chan Sonichu|furry]] who has [[Chris Chan Update 21 October 2008|videos of himself crying on YouTube]] because someone insulted his [[My Little Pony]] drawings? We know, don't we, what the first social justice president will look like.|Milo Yiannopoulos, exhibiting a photo of Chris}}

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' on the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:02 in the link.

In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===3GI===
{{main|Shrek Retold}}
On 15 November 2018, a Youtuber by the name of 3GI released a trailer for ''Shrek Retold'', a feature-length collaboration of the first Shrek movie.

On 15 March 2021 the Angry Video Game Nerd uploaded a review of a Shrek Gameboy Color game.

Conservative website HillaryDaily.com featured the tweet in an [http://hillarydaily.com/brandon/2016/11/10/radical-left-now-threatening-to-assassinate-donald-trump/ article] on 10 November.

==Incest charge==
On 1 August 2021, Chris was arrested and charged for engaging in incest with his [[mother]]. Multiple media outlets reported on it.

=== Daily Mail ===
The ''Daily Mail'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 3 August 2021.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9857365/Trans-YouTuber-Chris-Chan-faces-incest-charges-involving-79-year-old-dementia-suffering-mom.html</ref>

=== Dnes ===
Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff. The article noted that Chris was charged with incest and held without bond and that additional charges were pending.<ref>https://www.cbs19news.com/story/44432363/suspect-arrested-in-sex-crimes-against-family-member-case</ref>

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

===''McPixel''===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

===''Goat Simulator''===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-Chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''Heartbeat''===
In the 2018 RPG ''Heartbeat'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]]. His battle [[CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero|theme is Holding Out For a Hero]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==

{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]].

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}.

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children.

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

===IGN===
In a video by IGN, James Marsden, the actor playing Tom Wachowski in the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (film)|Sonic movie]] is quizzed on his knowledge on Sonic trivia. One of the question asked is if Sonichu is a unlockable character in [[Sonic Forces]]. Marsden guessed incorrectly.

===Edmund McMillen===
On May 26th, 2020 game developer Edmund Mcmillen, largely known for creating Super Meat Boy and The Binding Of Isaac held a livestream regarding his upcoming card game "Tapeworm".
Within the background of the video, a framed photograph of Chris can be seen.

McMillen also follows Chris' twitter account, and has stated during a follow-up livestream that his favorite saga was the Megan Saga and the creation of the first few issues of Sonichu. He later commissioned Chris to create artwork for the Binding of Isaac: Four Souls card game, but the commission was rescinded on 1 August 2021, in light of the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] allegations.<ref>https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/isaacfoursouls/the-binding-of-isaac-4-souls-requiem/posts/3254814</ref>

===Antoons===
Former YouTube animator turned Alt-Right cartoonist replied to a detractor on Twitter who accused him of being a ripoff of another Alt-Right cartoonist named Stonetoss with a collage of various Internet animation icons that date back to the early 2000s. Sonichu is visible in the upper right hand corner.

===Angry Video Game Nerd===
On 15 March 2021 the Angry Video Game Nerd uploaded a review of a Shrek Gameboy Color game. In that review a character was wearing a Shrek medallion that looked awfully similar to the [[Sonichu Medallion]]. It's confirmed to have been made by Chris because in one shot the back of the medallion is seen and Chris' signature is visible on it.[https://kiwifarms.net/threads/random-chris-updates.23605/page-1756#post-8543265]

==Death threats against Trump==
On 9 [[November 2016]], Chris made multiple death threats against President-elect [[Pmurt|Donald Trump]].

Later that day, one of his Twitter posts was featured in an [https://web.archive.org/web/20161230084307/http://www.infowars.com/hillary-supporters-burn-american-flag-riot-threaten-to-kill-trump-after-losing-election/ article] by Alex Jones's Infowars website. The article was linked to on the [http://archive.is/kyUJh Drudge Report]. {{w|David Duke}}, former member of Louisiana's State Representatives and former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, [https://twitter.com/DrDavidDuke/status/796474021625860098 tweeted] the article. '''Chris himself [[2009-2016 tweets#10 November 2016.1|tweeted]] the article on 10 November'''.

Daniel "Keemstar" Keem, host of the drama YouTube account Drama Alert, [https://mobile.twitter.com/KEEMSTAR/status/796281178030567424 tweeted] at Chris and alerted the Secret Service.

Sky Williams, a YouTube gamer with nearly a million subscribers, [https://twitter.com/SkyWilliams/status/796282670959366144 retweeted] Chris's post and added the comment, "k so this shit isn't okay - can we report this?". OneyNG, another YouTube gamer, also [https://twitter.com/OneyNG/status/796273797984718852 retweeted], saying "Chris Chan always knows what to say". Hundreds of retweets were made by their followers.

Conservative website HillaryDaily.com featured the tweet in an [http://hillarydaily.com/brandon/2016/11/10/radical-left-now-threatening-to-assassinate-donald-trump/ article] on 10 November.

==Incest charge==
On 1 August 2021, Chris was arrested and charged for engaging in incest with his [[mother]]. Multiple media outlets reported on it.

=== Daily Mail ===
The ''Daily Mail'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 3 August 2021.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9857365/Trans-YouTuber-Chris-Chan-faces-incest-charges-involving-79-year-old-dementia-suffering-mom.html</ref>

=== Dnes ===
Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff. The article noted that Chris was charged with incest and held without bond and that additional charges were pending.<ref>https://www.cbs19news.com/story/44432363/suspect-arrested-in-sex-crimes-against-family-member-case</ref>

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

===''McPixel''===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

===''Nancy the Happy Whore and the Perfidious Petrol Station''===
In this 2012 point and click adventure game, players can interact with an NPC resembling and talking like Chris who wants to become a hippy to go on on his "[[Love Quest]]". If asked on what his dream girl is, he gives out a description reminiscent to that from the [[Attraction Sign]].

===''Goat Simulator''===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-Chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''Heartbeat''===
In the 2018 RPG ''Heartbeat'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

[[File:ShinyMudslacks.png|thumb|300px|Shiny Mudslack's sprite, inspired by Sonichu]]
''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]]. His battle [[CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero|theme is Holding Out For a Hero]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

===Smiling Friends===
According to the creator of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon Smiling Friends, he had planned for Chris to be offered a voice role in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice a grease puddle in a brief one-off role, however, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - prevented them being able to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref>

==News platforms reporting on the incest scandal==

Ever since the leaked call, Chris has caught mainstream attention once again. This time however he caught the attention of the mainstream media on a scale never seen before.

{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

He provided more thoughts on the scene in [[Gal Pal E-mails 4|emails to a gal pal]]:

{{quotebox| On the flipside and current topic, I had just learned last night from a random check on the Troll forum about "Failosophy" and their highlighting a photo of myself that was Trolled from me by Jacklyn the years ago.

<nowiki>*Spoiler Alert*</nowiki>. Jamie Lee would not date me, and she would jail me over the "ugly couch". The episode is online at MTV.com, and it is available for sale in SD and HD on iTunes. I am feeling really pissed off about this. I have alerted Rob Bell about it, and pray that Suing MTV or the "Failosophy" cast is a doable option. Nobody asked for my permission or made me sign a waiver.

I am feeling in between the good of my day yesterday, and the bad of Failosophy, so I am off and on on feeling good and bad right now.}}

Chris reached out to the show's host, Hasan Minhaj, to complain. Minhaj responded, saying that he had been told all the people whose photos were featured on the show had provided consent and apologized if that was not the case for Chris:

{{quotebox| Yes, I agree the photo is definitely one of my better ones, among all of the rest similarly nude pics and videos. :( The White MALE was the one who used the word "marriage". UGH! And worse, the woman would not only Not Date me, but have me thrown in jail over a couch that my [[Minor Family Members#Aunt Harriet and Uncle Tom|Aunt Harriet]] gave to me years ago. And not only is it a couch, but it is also a fold-out bed.

I have not yet heard a reply from Rob, but I will call him later today, and let him know about the emails, since there is the chance he was too busy to check.

And there is a small, possible light towards a resolution. I have found contact with the host of "Failosophy", Hasan Minhaj, on facebook, from the "Failosophy" page's about section. http://ww.facebook.com/pages/Hasan-Minhaj/41284651271 I have contacted Hasan with the following:

Hello. I was just made aware of your show on MTV, "Failosophy", when I had heard that a photograph, that I had taken myself, for a woman, fell into the possession of Internet Trolls/Cyber-Bullies, was featured and mocked on your show in the fourth episode alongside two old men with bacon and plushies. I have already been trolled and bullied for over five difficult years. What you are doing on your show is Promoting Trolling, and Trolling is Bullying. Not a lot of people take kindly to Bullying, and I do not take kindly to Trolling.

Tell your crew and crap-filled producers that for Promoting Trolling, you all will Pay unto everyone you have further emotionally damaged and embarrassed on television.

I am not a fan of "Failosophy", and I despise your kind of people continuing to Troll for the LULZ.

Sincerely,

Christian Weston Chandler,

Ruckersville, VA, USA.

He swiftly replied:

Thank for being in touch. That wasn't my intention at all. I agree that trolling is just a digital form of bullying. I was told that all the photos on the show have been signed off as ok to be used on air from the original owners/people who took the photos. I'm only ok with doing these jokes as long as the people who took them are in on the joke as well. If that didn't happen with your photo I am truly very sorry. Please accept my apology because that wasn't my intention at all. If there's anything I can do please let me know.

Best,

Hasan

I then replied requesting his more direct contact info, offering my email address and iPhone number, and that I would think it over and consult with my people (Rob Bell). I sincerely think there is a chance of a legal lawsuit, with a settlement. But those details are being discussed between me and Rob at the moment. But according to Hassan's reply, the photos do need to be signed off as ok for airing, FROM the Original Owners/People who Took Them. I took the photo myself, and was not informed beforehand, so chances should be fair to good.

I just have to wait and see what Rob says.}}

In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells her son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu.

The ''Daily Mail'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 3 August 2021.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9857365/Trans-YouTuber-Chris-Chan-faces-incest-charges-involving-79-year-old-dementia-suffering-mom.html</ref>

=== Dnes ===
Bulgarian tabloid ''Dnes'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 5 August 2021. The article refers to him with his former male name and uses masculine pronouns to refer to him throughout, also describing him as mentally-ill.<ref>https://i.redd.it/a3h4gxt13uf71.jpg</ref>

=== Insider ===
The ''Insider'' reported on Chris' incest charges on 6 August 2021. Unlike other articles, the article seems well educated, and examines the history of Chris Chan back to 2007. Of note is that it includes the quote from Chris in 2016 saying he had dreams of fucking his mother.<ref>https://www.insider.com/chris-chan-saga-timeline-incest-charges-arrest-2021-8</ref>

=== CBS-19 ===
The local [[Wikipedia:WCAV|CBS-19]] of [[Charlottesville]] posted a news item covering the story, quoting a news release from the Greene County Sheriff. The article noted that Chris was charged with incest and held without bond and that additional charges were pending.<ref>https://www.cbs19news.com/story/44432363/suspect-arrested-in-sex-crimes-against-family-member-case</ref>

=== Newsweek ===
''Newsweek'' posted an article, "Chris Chan Arrested for Incest in Virginia", quoting the Henrico County Sheriff, who stated that they were merely holding Chris until he could be transferred to Greene County. The article appears to have been partially created by bots, given the odd syntax used in places.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/chris-chan-arrested-incest-virginia-1615220</ref>

=== Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight ===
On 7 August 2021, Chris's incest case was discussed by Fox News political commentator Tucker Carlson, who commented on the absurdity of Chris being sent to a female prison by the state of Virginia (the decision was later reversed, as Tucker notes). Tucker references Chris's incest charge and [[Barbara|his 79-year-old mother]]'s apparent dementia while images of a deranged-looking Chris from recent YouTube videos appear on the screen. The segment then goes on to talk about crimes of MtF transgender inmates in women's prisons. Carlson refers to Chris as "Chris ''Chan''" and simply "Chan", seemingly believing that "Chan" is his legal surname. He also calls Chris a "YouTube personality".

==Video Games==
===''McPixel''===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

===''Nancy the Happy Whore and the Perfidious Petrol Station''===
In this 2012 point and click adventure game, players can interact with an NPC resembling and talking like Chris who wants to become a hippy to go on on his "[[Love Quest]]". If asked on what his dream girl is, he gives out a description reminiscent to that from the [[Attraction Sign]].

===''Goat Simulator''===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-Chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''Heartbeat''===
In the 2018 RPG ''Heartbeat'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

===''Pokemon Clover''===
[[File:ShinyMudslacks.png|thumb|300px|Shiny Mudslack's sprite, inspired by Sonichu]]
''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]]. His battle [[CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero|theme is Holding Out For a Hero]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

==Proposed media roles==
===Smiling Friends===
According to the creator of [[Adult Swim]] cartoon Smiling Friends, he had planned for Chris to be offered a voice role in an episode of the show. Chris was to voice a grease puddle in a brief one-off role, however, contractual issues at the studio - which would have forced them to cast him in multiple episodes - prevented them being able to offer Chris the role.<ref>https://youtu.be/t9SS8hMOF4k?t=2065</ref>

Stoplightguy: /* Edmund McMillen */

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]] and ''[[Sonichu_(comic)|Sonichu]]'' have occasionally made it to the attention of the '''media''' spotlight, in [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines, [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)|podcasts]] and [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]].

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

[[File:Dailyprogress print cville pride cwc.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in his [[unicorn cosplay]].]]

A decade later, on 16 [[September 2017]], Chris was photographed by ''Daily Progress'' staff at a [[Cville Pride]] event.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/gallery/cville-pride-festival/collection_58055de6-9b2a-11e7-b098-83d0250a47fb.html#tncms-source=endcard-gallery</ref>

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes'' ===
[[File:OkKOstoryboard.jpg|thumb|The original storyboard initially made the reference more blatant]]
In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells his son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

===UVA Remembers Pulse===

On 12 [[June 2017]] Chris was interviewed at this event, quoted on text and video, by the same station which had interviewed him decades earlier for the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]].

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

===SpliceToday.com===
An article<ref>[http://www.splicetoday.com/digital/come-back-christian-weston-chandler]</ref> posted on 6 January 2011 on this multimedia blog decried Chris's latest exile from the Internet. It sums up Chris's history and behavior while sharing a personal account of the author taking steps to improve his life in order to distance himself from the similarities he saw between Chris and himself.

===Nicole Richie's twitter===
On 5 [[December 2009]] American socialite {{w|Nicole Richie}} posted on [[Twitter]]<ref>[http://twitpic.com/s7pfi]</ref> an image of Chris in his [[Barbara Chandler|mother]]'s underwear and humorously presented it as a picture of {{w|Benji Madden}}, brother of her then boyfriend (now husband) {{w|Joel Madden}}.

===Sega Acknowledges Sonichu===
On 13 [[January 2012]], Sonichu was briefly mentioned during a "Free Stuff Friday" video on Sega of America's YouTube channel.

{{quotebox|'''Male Employee''': [''while pulling out a Super [[Sonic]] plush''] Um, this one's on its own? 
'''Female Employee''': Sonichu?

While this is not [[TRUE and HONEST]] Sonichu [[Jimmy Hill|merchandise]], it does show at least some Sega employees are aware of Sonichu's existence. Jump to 3:50 in the linked video.

===Maddox===
Internet comedy writer {{w|Maddox (writer)|George "Maddox" Ouzounian}}, best-known for his website [http://maddox.xmission.com The Best Page in the Universe], critiqued Chris's [[:File:001-Christophers1stSonic.jpg|first drawing of Sonic the Hedgehog]] on one of his side-projects, [http://www.iambetterthanyourkids.com I Am Better Than Your Kids], as one of many children's drawings to help promote his novel of the same name.

===''Ensign Sue Must Die''===
[[File:EnsignSueSonichuReference.jpg|thumb|300px]]

Chris would later be indirectly referenced again on 6 [[August 2018]] as #2 of "24 Times Fans Completely And Utterly Lost Their Minds" for his [[Sonic Boom Protests]], which led to the event that happened on [[26 December 2014]].<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/pictofacts-1019-24-times-fans-completely-utterly-lost-their-minds/]</ref>

===Smosh===
Chris's Sonic Totem statue was featured one Smosh's site, via the 'Smosh Pit' section which mostly contains articles, countdowns, and memes. It was listed in the [http://www.smosh.com/smosh-pit/photos/people-who-tried-crafts-pinterest-and-totally-nailed-it?_rtu=TFS6IVnISRKfI2Vc%2BgJJHA%2B '22 People Who Tried Crafts On Pinterest and TOTALLY NAILED IT'] article.

===IMDb===
Chris has his own IMDb entry page. To date he only has two credits, both in the "archive footage" category; the aforementioned ''=3'' video, and the later WTFIWWY segment.<ref>[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4813395/ IMDb page]</ref>

===Wii U Daily===
The website Wii U Daily (now known as Nintendo Today) has an article on the [[GameStop]] incident that occurred on [[26 December 2014]].<ref>[http://wiiudaily.com/2014/12/man-maces-gamestop-employee-over-sonic-boom/ Man maces GameStop employee over Sonic Boom | Wii U]</ref> Chris eventually found the article, then proceeded to go on a long rambling on Facebook on why the writer should respect him and his terrible ways--even going as far to call the writer a horrible male, despite the writer being ''fe''male.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

On 1 [[January 2015]], the Wii U Daily article about the 26 December 2014 incident was linked to another subreddit, r/rage.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/rage/comments/2r0kyh/man_maces_gamestop_employee_over_sonic_boom/ Man maces employee over Sonic Boom: rage]</ref>

===Design & Trend===
On 30 December 2014, defunct website Design & Trend also posted an article about the 26 December 2014 incident.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150102005936/http://www.designntrend.com:80/articles/33011/20141230/gamestop-maced-shocking-assault-sonic-fanboy-over-sonics-arms-sonichu-jailed-watch.htm GameStop Employee Maced In Shocking Assault By 'Sonic' Fanboy Over Sonic's Arms: 'Sonichu' Creator Jailed]</ref> The article link was apparently [[Twitter|tweeted]] 15 times, according to the website.

===''Sonic the Hedgehog'' Twitter===
On June 10, 2015, a fan asked the official [[Twitter]] account of [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] (which has been verified and everything) if [[Sonichu]] will be playable in ''[[Sonic Boom]]: Fire & Ice''.<ref>https://archive.is/eWfjQ</ref> Their response?

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===Crave Online Australia===
[[File:ChrisSonichuSupanova.png|thumb|200px|Cosplayers as Christian and Sonichu at Supanova Sydney in 2015]]
Crave Online, a website showcasing various video coverage from games, films, sports, and others topics covered a convention in [[PandaHalo|Australia]] called Supanova in 2015. A duo cosplayed as Chris and Sonichu, making a brief reference to [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Nintendo]] rejecting Chris's game proposal.<ref>http://www.craveonline.com.au/entertainment/articles/869761-watch-supanova-pop-culture-expo-2015-sydney-wrap</ref>

===The Jimquisition===
In his review of ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2 3D'' for the 3DS, Jim Sterling gives a list of reasons why the original ''Sonic 2'' was an all-time classic. In this list, Jim mentions that the game is "a great way to meet [[boyfriend-free girl]]s," and also makes reference to the blue arms controversy.<ref>[http://www.thejimquisition.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-2-3d-review/]</ref>

===Adam Baldwin's twitter===
On 5 December 2015, actor {{w|Adam Baldwin}} tweeted an image showing photos of various people who are either opposed or supporitve of GamerGate. At the top of the image on its far left side a picture of Chris can be seen.<ref>[https://archive.is/2oxcX]</ref> The tweet was later on deleted.<ref>[https://twitter.com/adambaldwin/status/673221909681602560]</ref>

===Return of Kings===
Chris has an article and is commonly used as an example of an "omega" on the Kings Wiki, the wiki of controversial neomasculinity group Return of Kings.<ref>[http://www.returnofkings.com/21749/the-most-omega-place-on-the-internet]</ref>

===Zip Zap===
{{Infobox/video

German-American ranter Zip Zap made a slight nod to Chris Chan when comparing a pedophile named Manglenn to him, even adding [[I Recycle My Own Semen|"at least [Manglenn] doesn't recycle his own semen... not from what we know"]].

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W. Bush, a World War II torpedo bomber pilot and the head of the CIA, was considered a wimp when he ran for president.<ref>Yiannopoulos mistakenly refers to Bush as a fighter pilot in his speech. George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

We know, don't we, what the first social justice president will look like.|Milo Yiannopoulos, exhibiting a photo of Chris}}

A picture of Chris is then featured on the screen to illustrate Milo's point. Although there were no specific allusions to Chris, Milo gives an eerily accurate description of Chris's internet infamy, seemingly derived '''solely''' on the photo itself. Jump to 1:13:02 in the link.

===Kotaku===
In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===3GI===
{{main|Shrek Retold}}
On 15 November 2018, a Youtuber by the name of 3GI released a trailer for ''Shrek Retold'', a feature-length collaboration of the first Shrek movie. It featured over 200 contributors, each with their own styles. One of them is none other than Chris himself. The collab was released on 29 November 2018. Chris's work is in the 0:55 mark.

===Angry Video Game Nerd===
On 15 March 2021 the Angry Video Game Nerd uploaded a review of a Shrek Gameboy Color game.

==Death threats against Trump==
On 9 [[November 2016]], Chris made multiple death threats against President-elect [[Pmurt|Donald Trump]].

Later that day, one of his Twitter posts was featured in an [https://web.archive.org/web/20161230084307/http://www.infowars.com/hillary-supporters-burn-american-flag-riot-threaten-to-kill-trump-after-losing-election/ article] by Alex Jones's Infowars website.

Sky Williams, a YouTube gamer with nearly a million subscribers, [https://twitter.com/SkyWilliams/status/796282670959366144 retweeted] Chris's post and added the comment, "k so this shit isn't okay - can we report this?". OneyNG, another YouTube gamer, also [https://twitter.com/OneyNG/status/796273797984718852 retweeted], saying "Chris Chan always knows what to say". Hundreds of retweets were made by their followers.

In this 2012 point and click adventure game, players can interact with an NPC resembling and talking like Chris who wants to become a hippy to go on on his "[[Love Quest]]". If asked on what his dream girl is, he gives out a description reminiscent to that from the [[Attraction Sign]].

The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats and a simulated chat simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===''OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo''===
[[File:CarolBioOKKO.jpeg|thumb|300px|]]
An iOS/Android beat-'em-up based on the pilot of the Cartoon Network Show, ''OK K.O.! Let's be Heroes'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza – to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]] and the pilot episode).

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===''HEARTBEAT''===
In the 2018 RPG ''HEARTBEAT'', a minor NPC character named "Crispy Boy", whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris, can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

''Pokémon Clover'' is a Pokémon romhack created by users of [[4Chan]]'s /vp/ board that pays homage to the various Internet cultures and memes, most notably 4Chan itself. The game references to Chris multiple times. The Fakemon Mudslacks draws inspirations from Chris's [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS]] and Sonichu, with its shiny form even taking his color. Two NPC trainers also take inspirations from Chris with one of them being Chris himself, who can be fought in a cave near Lake [[Virgin]].

==Interviews==
Over the course of Chris's life, he has experienced many fascinating events, and received plenty of attention. Naturally, this piques the curiosity of others, and this has culminated in many '''interviews''' with Chris, whether through the Internet or in the flesh. As of October 2017, he will only do an interview if he is going to be [[Chris and his ego|paid for it]].

PS: No updates on my Future Sweetheart Hayden Panettiere, yet, so do'nt ask. Peace}}

{{collapsible|Transcript|[''Chris is sitting, wearing his brown shirt and a stupid paper Sonichu medallion.'']

Hello my loyal Sonichu fanbase, who has not betrayed me, like so many other of you. Uh, hmm...I wish to dedicate this video, I wish to dedicate this video to a rather unexpected person. Uh, y’all may have heard of him, he was the troll that made the Sonichu animated series, the Sonichu animated series that defamed and added more fuel to the fire of my already burning down reputation. Hmm. Hey, and you know what else, though, to, I will give him to his credit, he is a very great animator, and he has agreed to make me personally a, a video of Rosechu and her fellow Rosechus, like Bubbles, Angelica, Sylvania, and others, looking pretty in anime form, like in the, look-, look-, looking in their true form. And I assume this means NO PICKLES on Rosechu. She does not have a pickle, and I assume this means that she will not be drawn as such. So uh, hm, I wish to uh, sing a song that I wrote when I was uh, wrote when I was 22 years old, 22 years of age, and do a live performance for y’all. A live performance uh, hm, uh, right here.

[''Jump cut to Chris standing and playing an acoustic guitar. The music and vocals are dubbed, and he lipsyncs through the performance. The music is performed by brother SimplySpoons, with background harmonies done by Chris. Chris's brown shirt is stuffed.'']

Without a fire, but a desire

To not hear you say, “I have a boyfriend.”

And I see the ladies

Walking alone one by one

And I never wanna hear, “I have a boyfriend.”

Tell me why, I’m still stuck as a virgin with rage?

Tell me why, I so need a cute girl my age?

Tell me why, I never wanna hear you say, “I have a boyfriend.”

And I have no fire,

But a desire, to not hear you say, “I have a boyfriend.”

Tell me why, I’m still stuck as a virgin with rage?

Tell me why, I so need a cute girl my age?

Tell me why, I never wanna hear you say, “I have a boyfriend.”

Why do all of the jerks get all of the pretty girls?

Yeah, you may not know this, but I want you to know,

That I am a lonesome heart.

Without a fire, but a desire, to not, to not hear,

Don’t wanna hear you say,

I’m a virgin with rage.

So need a cute girl my age.

Don’t never wanna hear you say,

“I have a boyfriend.”

[''chorus repeats'']

[''spoken:''] Never say it now.

[''Video cuts back to Chris sitting.'']

(sigh) I hope, I hope y’all enjoyed that. Hm. And spazkid, I can only hope that you make that video honest and true. Peace.}}

{{collapsible|Transcript|[''As in the last video, Chris is seated wearing his paper medallion.'']

Bottoms up! [''drinks from wine glass''] Ah! [''whips glasses from face and immediately replaces them'']

Just a uh, just a quick update here. Just a little uh…it’s, it’s come to my attention that a troll claiming to be me, the real Christian Weston Chandler, has posted fake, defamatory, and lying, and false videos on my former channel. I denounce these.

[''pointless cut'']

And the uh, blatant dishonest lies. Do not uh, believe what the trolls are saying about, in those videos. Uh, every, every word, every crook, is patently false. Like I said in the comics, I am the true and honest mayor of CWCville. Y’all know that. I have just been dealing with so much stress, so much anger, of not havin’ a sweetheart. Like I said in the comics, I am still contemplating on renouncing and giving up my post as mayor. Hmmmmm.

And anudder thing, you can tell me from, uh, the real me from the trolls on CChanSonichu, which was taken over by hacking trolls, you can tell me by, uh, by my fans know, they know who I am. To expand upon this point, I’ve been receiving fanart fro-, to my true and honest address. How else would I get fanart if I was not the original creator of Sonichu? So here is some of the fanart I will, I will show you.

[''Jump cut. We are looking at a Nintendo Magazine and a Poké Ball on a table.'']

OK, so I guess we could start off with uh, with this one.

[''Black and white illustration placed in view.'']

Here. Uh, this one, this one was probably my favorite, uh, fanart. Uh, it shows me, uh, Christian Chandler, in a fi-, in my fighting stance. I am strong, so I like how this one notices that. And uh, it uh, puts it in the, in the perspective there. Um. Hm.

[''A color illustration is placed on the table. Some of the lettering is Cyrillic.'']

This one uh, I don’t, I don’t really know uh, what it is. Uh, it says, Son-, I know Sonichu says, “Comrades! Defeat the impee-ist army of Mary Lee Walsh.” But even though I was on the honor roll, uh, at school, at high school, I really don’t remember much uh, about my history classes.

[''Jump cut. Another drawing.'']

This one uh, it looks like a uh, pal from one of my comics! It looks like uh, I think, I think por-, uh, portrays pretty accurately. It got me sayin’, “Hey guys! What’s da update!” You know, it says, it says it right dere. [''Camera moves in to the speech bubble.''] So uh, we’re, we’re done with that one. Mm.

[''New drawing, with the words “GALACTUS RETURNS” at the top. We soon see it’s a parody of the Drinking Straw of Fail.'']

This uh, this one, now this one I don’t really know what it is. Uh, I mean, uh it says, “Galactus Returns?” And it has a planet in it bein’, bein’ sucked up by something. I don’t really know what that is. So, hmm. Um, OK.

[''New drawing.'']

This uh, this next one here, uh, this one was made by, by a sweet little boy, uh, named Jimmy, who reads the comics, and has sent me a picture of Sonichu and Rosechu enjoying their love. And it’s very sad to have it remind me, uh, wha, that I do, don’t have a boyfriend-free girl to make into a sweetheart. But uh, I am, I am working on it with Hayden. So, hm.

[''New black and white drawing, of Chris holding a small cup with the “Recycling” symbol in a speech bubble.'']

Uh, this last one, uh, I have a, I have a feeling it was sent in uh, by a troll, and I don’t really know what to think about this one. Um, if you have, if you have a problem with it, don’t do it. It’s uh, it’s that simple, I think. OK, so, that’s what I wanted to go over today. And y’all have a pleasant, pleasant day today. Stay safe.}}

[The camera follows the arrow, panning down to reveal a parody of the cover of “Sonichu 0.” At the top it reads, “SONICHU – THE NEW SEASON!!!” In the left-hand corner, Sonichu is winking and saying, “The world’s most way-past-cool comic!” In the center of the drawing, the brown-striped impostor is posed to throw a Poké Ball.

[''Chris is sitting in his room'']

[''voice-over'']: Captain’s Log, Stardate, July 26th 2009.

[''Chris speaks''] Hello my loyal fanbase. I have some exciting news to be announced. I just recently heard from an independent game company who wishes to pick up my Sonichu character and make it into a video game! This is going to be the uh, true and honest Sonichu game. It is in the works, and I signed on a very tasty contract with them for a large sum of money, which I do not feed overly comfortable discussing right now, because this uh, large amounts of money may uh, influence how the women see me as a person, and prevent me from finding my true sweetheart. Hmm. But uh, I did find this on my answering machine uh, when I got up, when I got up, when I got up in the morning, this morning.

[''pretends to press answering machine button'']

'''Kacey''' [''voice-over'']: Um, hi, it’s Kacey again. Um, thanks for returning my phone call. I’m really sorry I missed yours. Um, so yeah, I was a little apprehensive about calling someone who I’ve never talked to from online, but you know, I thought you might be different, and I’m really glad that I was right. So yeah, I would love to talk again. Um, I’m out of class for the rest of the day, so just give me a call back, I’ll be around. So, I can’t wait to talk to you. Peace!

[''Liquid is ecstatic.'']

Hmmm. That’s uh, you know what, I am very excited today, because of my lifelong dream is finally coming true. [''sounding like Kermit''] Hooray! The uh, game company has told me uh, that as of uh, right now, the uh, they want me to uh, not give, give away too much uh, info, and they had me sign a uh, a NDA, which is a uh, as they put it uh, a non-disclosure agreement. However, they uh, did ag-, they did agree to allow me to tell you the title of the game and what system it’s uh, comin’ out for. [''brings up big envelope and pulls out papers''] Yeah. Uh, it says, it says here that uh, they are very pleased to pick up my series and will be showing it off at the uh, Austin GDC, Game Developers’ Conference, in September! [points into camera] Yeah, so uh, just want y’all to know that it’s comin’ along well for me, despite all those slanderous trolls and impostors. My dreams are finally coming true. Look for “Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles” in a store near you ex-, exclusively for the X-Box 360. While I do not personally own a X-Box 360 yet, they have promised me to give me one for free, and uh, have assured me that it is not as bad as I thought in the past. Hm.

Oh, uh, to that overweight troll who keeps trying so hard to impersonate me, please understand, I am a high-functioning autistic male, and please stop interfering with the sale, with the sales of my Sonichu franchise. It is my main source of income, and my parents need to be supported on it. Uh, don’t, don’t be so naïve to think that I don’t know what you’re up to.

Well, I hope y’all are uh, having as good of a week as I have. To my true supporters, thank you, and peace.

And, to the rest of your, you slanderous trolls, [''holds foot up to camera''] kiss my game-making foot!}}

¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas.

Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai appris deux ans de français dans mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe.

Of PVCC Auch hab ich zu lernen[?] von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind[?] ein Zertifikat in CADD. Hmm.

うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！[Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba. [?] Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!] Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uh, first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses''], I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of...Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all. [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. Autism is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you stress. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is, does something to this very similar to autism. People with Asperger's take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear-, start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg-, I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh...remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh, I have made my rectum with Clyde, I mean I have, I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from my mother's retirements accounts, and I have apologi-, and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could, this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d-, I do not, I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the BILLY MAYS Library, Liquid himself, Mary Lee Walsh, and the Man in the Pickle Suit.'']

Hmm, yeah, so uh, you know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh...I was able to buy my uh, my father Robert Chandler a uh, a new axe for his uh, woodworking hobby. And uh, I have, I have bought my, I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo-, mother Barbara Chandler for her, for her music. And I have bought myself just, just a, a whole bunch of rare Transformers toys and animation programs off o-, off of eBay.

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh, the, the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official Sonichu magazine. So hmm, why'n'ch-, why'n'cha take a look here. [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast News Dash.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

'''Translation:
'''

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the vest small, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I learned it during two years of French during my high school years at Manchester. With my beautiful French teacher. I got my diploma with mention, I even have a certificate to commemorate when I was the assistant manager of the [basketball] team. Of the PVCC [''Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"''] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [''can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"''] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!}}

Chris in the media

2021-04-05T18:48:52Z

Stoplightguy:

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]], being an attention whore of sorts, has frequently managed to find him and his [[Sonichu_(character)|creation]] in the '''media''' spotlight. Whether it be [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines or, of course, [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]], if Chris can find some way to get his 15 minutes of fame, he'll do it.

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentators and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''{{w|Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch}}'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shojo Beat]]===
{{main|Shojo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

[[File:Dailyprogress print cville pride cwc.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Chris in his [[unicorn cosplay]].]]

A decade later, on 16 [[September 2017]], Chris was photographed by ''Daily Progress'' staff at a [[Cville Pride]] event.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/gallery/cville-pride-festival/collection_58055de6-9b2a-11e7-b098-83d0250a47fb.html#tncms-source=endcard-gallery</ref>

{{clear}}

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in {{w|Boston|Boston}}. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts {{w|Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean}}. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on {{w|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}'s ''{{w|Web Soup|Web Soup}}'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''{{w|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids}}'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''{{w|Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show}}'' on {{w|Sirius XM Radio}}, which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''{{w|Houston Press}}'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''{{w|Failosophy}}'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

{{Infobox/video
|name= Chris-Chan on MTV's Failosophy
|video= {{#ev:archiveorg|ChrisChanOnMTVsFailosophy}}
}}

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "{{w|Undressed}}"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch. Lee, My Once Good Name was actually Jailed, because of the SET UPS those Anonymous, LULZy, Shit-Faced TROLLS. [[Chris and reality|At least I was more clean, sexy and gung-ho than either of the ugly, grimy freak shows I was compared with.]]

If I did not have a very good day beforehand today, I would seriously be [[Chris and the Law|calling my Attorney]] on your damn show's ass.|[[Christian Weston Chandler]], after 950,000 people saw him on ''Failosophy''.}}

To this day, Chris has not followed up on this threat of legal action. The episode with Chris in it also remains available on iTunes.

===''OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes'' ===
[[File:OkKOstoryboard.jpg|thumb|The original storyboard initially made the reference more blatant]]
In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells his son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===WCAV-TV===
{{main|Destruction of Chris's House}}
A local TV broadcast gave a brief report on the [[destruction of Chris's house]].

{{Infobox/video
| name = Fire at 14 Branchland Court
| video = {{#ev:youtube|qkYnMRh26Oo}}
}}

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], {{w|New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine}} featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

===UVA Remembers Pulse===

{{main|UVA Remembers Pulse}}

On 12 [[June 2017]] Chris was interviewed at this event, quoted on text and video, by the same station which had interviewed him decades earlier for the [[Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes]].

===Newsradio WINA===

===dodie===
{{Infobox/video
|name= dodie - Monster
|video= {{#ev:youtube|BPBBZyAlu7c}}
}}

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 45-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

{{Infobox/video

}}

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled "r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

{{quote|Maybe, but only if we give Sonichu blue arms, three scarves, and ultimately just redesign him as Big the Cat.}}

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu. The first was on March 9, 2016, in which [[Dr. Eggman]] attempts to cancel getting "Big the Cat facts" on his phone by texting his favorite Sonic character, but is told that his favorite Sonic character is Sonichu.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/707622466391117824</ref> The second was April 29, 2016, where "Sonichu" is one possible name on a "What's Your Sonic Name" chart making fun of the "original characters" in the Sonic fandom.<ref>https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/726090715885756416</ref>

===Milo Yiannopoulos===
On 20 January 2017, former editor of Breitbart News Milo Yiannopoulos spoke at the University of Washington. The event, called ''Cyberbullying Isn't Real'', contained a segment where Milo comments on how George H. W.

George H. W. Bush flew a {{w|Grumman TBF Avenger}} torpedo bomber.</ref> Milo then poses the question:

{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]], being an attention whore of sorts, has frequently managed to find him and his [[Sonichu_(character)|creation]] in the '''media''' spotlight. Whether it be [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines or, of course, [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]], if Chris can find some way to get his 15 minutes of fame, he'll do it.

The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shoujo Beat]]===
{{main|Shoujo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in [[Wikipedia:Boston|Boston]]. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts [[Wikipedia:Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean]]. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]].

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on [[Wikipedia:G4 (TV channel)|G4]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:Web Soup|Web Soup]]'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''[[Wikipedia:Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids]]'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''[[Wikipedia:Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show]]'' on [[Wikipedia:Sirius XM Radio|Sirius XM Radio]], which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''[[Wikipedia:Houston Press|Houston Press]]'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''[[Wikipedia:Failosophy|Failosophy]]'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 1:22 for his appearance.

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV. I enjoyed the women in "[[Wikipedia:Undressed|Undressed]]"; I like [[Beavis and Butt-head|Daria]]; the [[Dating education|dating game show]] was fun to watch, and to put them way at the bottom, [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis and Butt-Head]] were [[Christian Weston Chandler|so stupid, it became crazy-funny]].

I have been the victim of Trolling/Cyber-Bullying for the past greater than five years. I get that whatever gets onto the [[Chris and the Internet|internet]] is near impossible to remove.

And now I find that among the shit I was trolled of, this ONE photograph, which was originally taken for a WOMAN years ago, gets compared with a literal meat-head and a plush-head, and is made available on iTunes for two dollars!

From the one woman's words, Jamie Lee... I don't know what is worse, that she would not date me, or that she would put me in jail over a freaking couch.

In the pilot episode "Lakewood Plaza Turbo", Carol tells his son K.O. to defend the plaza "to the extreme", a direct reference to the cover of [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]]. This was confirmed by the show's creator, Ian Jones-Quartey, who later stated that the reference was "even more blatant in the original storyboard".<ref>https://twitter.com/ianjq/status/981619296408190976</ref>

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], [[Wikipedia:New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine]] featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he has many similarities to Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 47-second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

In the behind the scene video, hosted by the music video's director, we are given a clearer picture of the poster at the 11:50 mark. The cameo, who was named "Mayor CWC", was claimed by the director to be included out of peer pressure.

Two later posts also made minor mentions of Sonichu.

In the Kotaku article [http://kotaku.com/what-people-miss-when-they-use-autistic-as-an-insult-1794491453 ''What People Miss When They Use 'Autistic' As An Insult''], writer Cecilia D'Anastasio points to Chris and ''Sonichu'', along with the actions of [[trolls]] on [[4chan]] and [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], as part of the reason "[[autism]] came to be associated with impassioned gamers." The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History

2020-08-23T23:43:27Z

{{Articleofthenow}}
 
[[File:Gs.png|thumb|Geno Samuel]]

{{quote|Chris-Chan. Arguably the most documented person in history.

His antics have been witnessed by millions, with many always keeping a close eye on him, waiting to see what he does next.

What made him this way? What is the attraction? What keeps us fascinated?

This is the story of Chris-Chan.|Geno Samuel's opening narration to the series, condensed to the last two lines for most episodes.}}

'''''Chris-Chan: A Comprehensive History''''' is a [[Internet|webseries]] created by Lithuanian producer and musician Geno Samuel, which began in [[February 2018]]. It is essentially a documentary about [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]]'s life, similar to [[Chris Chan Documentary (Sachumo)|Sachumo]]'s. However, while Sachumo's film is an abridged summary of Chris's life for newcomers, Geno's videos go into greater detail, each video being around 30 to 40 minutes long. The series is in chronological order, taking several videos just to cover Chris's life before his internet fame, with a significant portion of the series dedicated to [[Saga|the densely packed events of 2009 and 2010]].

The series is still ongoing (currently covering everything from his birth to the events in the months leading up to [[26 December 2014|the pepper spray incident]]), and Geno predicts that it will be around 50 episodes long by the time he reaches the present day. Once he's "caught up" with [[Christian Weston Chandler's Adult Chronicles|Chris's adult chronicles]], Geno plans to continue the series incrementally until it ultimately reaches [[Chris_and_death#Chris himself (1982–20??)|its logical conclusion]]. Chris is aware of the series, and has commented on it several times over [[Twitter]] and [[YouTube]].

==YouTube account==
Geno attempted to monetize his GenoSamuel2 channel. On 13 [[June 2018|June of that year]], when it was his turn to be reviewed by YouTube staff for the monetization program, they instead issued community guideline strikes due to the clips of bullying featured in the videos, and as a result his channel was terminated.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/bpe1lz/its_coming_cant_wait_for_the_new_material/enu9fug/</ref> Geno confirmed that he did send an appeal form, but YouTube never gave him his channel back. Fans reuploaded all of the episodes made prior to the strike and Geno created a new backup channel on YouTube where the series would be uploaded from then on.

A week later, Geno revealed on the backup channel he would be taking a long break from the videos, stating that he was getting tired of always having to have Chris in his mind when making the documentary. He said that he will continue working on them sometime near the end of the year.

On 3 [[January 2019]], he announced on his [[Twitter]] in the form of a teaser poster that the series would be coming back on 24 [[February 2019]], which also happens to be [[Birthday|Chris's birthday]]. The new series contains updated audio, additional and corrected information and some modifications to prevent another takedown. He also mentioned that he would not be monetizing the videos out of respect.

Geno said that Chris knew of the original run of the series and approved of it.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyrkBzO-WY8&t</ref>

In [[July 2020]], Geno announced the series would go on hiatus again until [[August 2020|August]]; however, the series resumed slightly earlier than expected, as Part 41 premiered on 31 July.

==Mentions by Chris==
In [[August 2019]], Chris, while in his phase of role-playing as [[Magi-Chan]], began "binge-listening" to the series<ref>https://twitter.com/MagiChan111448/status/1165401077619073024</ref> (suggesting that, like with the [[Sachumo]] documentary, Chris couldn't bear to actually watch the videos). Chris would make comments on the videos as Magi-Chan via Twitter, and as himself in YouTube's comment section.

Chris's interest in the series continued after his phrase of role-playing as Magi-Chan ended, eventually watching the series as opposed to just listening.

*"quite curious, when you think about it, from the ''Animal Crossing'' Video, Christine calls for ''Sonic Heroes'' being GameCube exclusive; she gave premonition to the Nintendo-Exclusive ''Sonic'' titles."<ref>https://twitter.com/MagiChan111448/status/1165329837071962117</ref>

*He noted exactly which cartoons and games [[Megan Schroeder]] had introduced him to over a decade prior "just for the record and Megan's reference", those being ''[[Soul Calibur]]'' and ''Tekken'' OC Yoshimitsu, also saying he'd been a fan of ''[[My Little Pony]]'' and ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' before meeting Megan.<ref>https://twitter.com/MagiChan111448/status/1165401077619073024</ref>

*"You made me laugh when you stiltedly read, 'You don't have to tell me twice. But back in the Stone Age...' Just simply how you said it cracked me up. Reminder, the end of that joke is, '...you Really needed to tell them twice'; you couldn't get it through their heads at all."<ref>https://twitter.com/MagiChan111448/status/1165401077619073024</ref>

*Chris viewed his past homophobia with regret.<ref>https://twitter.com/MagiChan111448/status/1166479203585466368</ref>

*Chris commented on Part 24 in YouTube's comment section, claiming that he had known [[Alec Benson Leary]] was a troll, among other dubious remarks:

{{quotebox|I remember those times, and it was cringing to hear myself drone ON and ON just in thinking he was going to clear those ads from my old website. [[Lie|Subconsciously, I had always Known he and his crew were Trolling me the whole time]], and it showed in how I reacted later on. And, yet, while partly oblivious, I Was Trolling Alec At the time. And I take no shame in it, because he was Trolling Me. I saw through his charade and showed it in how he treated everyone in my few pages, as he had already done, and worse, in his pages. It only added fuel to the nobility of pulling the plug on the [[Cwcipedia]] to save myself, my arts, and my peoples and family, he from the shit I was having to deal with from those bastards. [[PsychicPowers|Psychic Powers]] were strong within me in the later part of this video. And they have only gotten stronger over the years into now, despite my having the many more trials to endure and learn from.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ffLGSfQf8o&lc=UgxvWUOajowz_kPacNd4AaABAg Link to video], and [https://web.archive.org/web/20191023182218/http://web.archive.org/screenshot/https://youtu.be/1ffLGSfQf8o archive.org's screenshot of the comments section.]</ref>}}

*Chris tweeted on Part 31, about the [[100 2270]] video he filmed on 7 October 2010:<ref>https://twitter.com/CPU_CWCSonichu/status/1236699315302797312</ref>

{{quotebox|[[File:Chris watches CCCS Part 31.jpg|thumb|200px]]

This Part, starting from 16:30, I forgot I made this video. It was soo Stupid, it is genuinely hilarious.

Rolling on the floor laughing

I guess it was in the high-energetic, loud voice I used that day to imitate Liquid Chris. ALOL!

“yamosexual”? Get ready for a meme of that word.}}

In summer 2020, during Chris's phase of [[Spirit possession|role-playing]] as [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]], Chris continued commenting on the series.

*About Part 38, Chris laughed about the goofy facial expressions he had made in [[Message for John Kyle]].<ref>[[May 2020 social media posts#Chris talks about Genosamuel's Documentary]]</ref>

*About Part 39, an angry Chris complained about Geno reading an e-mail from the [[Gal Pal E-mails 4]] collection in which Chris had privately talked about [[List of things Chris has shoved up his ass|shoving his own penis into his buttcrack]]. He also whined about Geno's coverage of the [[Destruction of Chris's house|house fire]].

{{quotebox|Hey! Firstly, that door to the bathroom downstairs was unable to close at all back in 2013 and early ‘14. Second, Why the Hell would you read that personal shit about [[Chris|Mama]] with [[Gal Pal E-mails 4#Chris fucks himself|the penis thing]]? [[CPU Blue Heart|Oh, My Chris Chan]]! Why did [[Kim Wilson|Kim]] have to be such a literal [[Troll]] to totally expose these things when they were shared with her in strictest confidence? “Kim Wilson”, if that is even your real name at this point, Mama may forgive you to an extent, but I, Sonichu, am truly insulted by this shit stunt you’ve pulled with her trust in betrayal over the years.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zSpn0ZNwqQ&lc=UgzdoujDjuYP-1upCml4AaABAg</ref>}}

CWC Update 29 July 2009

2020-05-13T21:03:28Z

Stoplightguy: /* Translation */

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls. Note that he somehow grew his full goatee back instantly.

He would later replace the video with an extended version, which adds a close-up of his driver's license and Chris asking his viewers to read about the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] on [[CWCipedia]], which he claims to be the new, official [[Sonichu]] website. Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me. Ignore all [[YouTube]] videos portraying me in a wrong sense, especially if it is not on my TRUE YouTube account, this one: I-B-A Chandler! Portra—playing also playing off of my father's license plate... a little bit. I B Mr. C! Follow Mr. C's, I'm an important C. (?) Mr. Chandler. [[IBAChandler]].

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK!

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song.

And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

Captain's Log, Stardate May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! The impostor in brown stripes! I have two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.

And during class I received the nickname I use on the Internet "Ricardo". Ricardo, my name in Spanish is Ricardo. Remember the Pokésite of RWC with CWC Pokésite 2 CWC Bionicle site and original Sonichu site.

I'm gonna bet you impostor that you didn't graduate from your high school. Really? I the real Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler not only did I graduate from Manchester High School [''shows his high school diploma''] with my diploma. My basketball diploma from my freshman year [''shows his stupid diploma''] Stupid.... You are stupid!

Not only with them but with my honor roll points, good!

And how was it that I wrote the comedians [''translator's note: He actually says comedians, instead of comics''] of Sonichu Rosechu and me?

I went to PVCC for my title, certificate of CADD [''shows a couple of diplomas, and second one of the them with his stupid Chris-chan drawing holding Megan''] I received a very good diploma in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Where is your certifica...—your certificate from PVCC for CADD? WHERE ARE THEY? You don't have them.... You don't have them, right?

You don't have them; I have them. I am the real Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, please, for eve... for all time in the future and now. Leave this damned game, you stupid dumb impostor.

Also, please respond in good Spanish, if not good? You are not real, you are the impostor, respond in English? NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD, YOU DUMB IMPOSTOR!!!

Peace

Captain's Log, Stardate: May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! Impostor in stripes of brown! I had two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.
And I received during my classes [''jump/pause''] the nickname that I used for my Internet: Ricardo. My name was Ricardo in the Spanish classes.

Remember the sp- the Pokésite de R.W.C with CWC Pokésite 2, CWC Bionicle site, the Original CWC Sonichu site.

I am going to make a bet: that you, the impostor didn't graduated from your High School. Really? I the truth, Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler. Didn't just graduated from Manchester High with my DEGREE. [''shows degree, then lowers it''] my degree of Basketball in my freshman year [''same previous motion'']. Stupid, you are stupid!

Not only it takes years but with my points of Honor Roll. Good! [''cut''] And how it was who wrote in the comedians of Sonichu, Rosechu and me, me! I went to Piedmont Virginia Community College for my title and certificate for Computer-Aided Drafting and Design. [''shows both certificates, and the second one seems to have some Chris-chan Sonichu & Megan art''] That I diplomated very good and received in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Your title from Piedmont, your certificate from Piedmont of Computer-Aided Drafting and Design.

You don't have them, I has. I am the true Christopher Christian "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, PLEASE, for all future and now actions. Stop this damned game! You stupid and dumb impostor.

==== A Spanish correction (AKA what Chris would've said if he could speak in Spanish at all) ====

Bitácora del Capitán, Fecha Estelar: 29 de Mayo, 2009

¡Ay, impostor de rayas cafés! Yo llevé dos años de Español en mi preparatoria,
Manchester High, con mi querida maestra. Durante estas clases, recibí el apodo que
uso en internet, RICARDO. Este fue mi nombre en las clases de Español. Recuerden
el ''Pokésite'' de R.W.C, el segundo ''Pokésite'' de CWC, el sitio de bionic de CWC y el
sitio original de Sonichu.

Voy a hacer una apuesta. Apuesto a que tú, impostor, no te graduaste de tu preparatoria. ¡En serio! Yo el verdadero, Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler, no solamente me gradué de Manchester High con mi TÍTULO, sino también con mi título de Basquetbol en mi primer año. ¡Estúpido! ERES UN ESTÚPIDO.

Y no solamente me gradué con éstos [''diplomas''], sino también con mis puntos en el Cuadro de Honor. ¿Cómo ves?

¿Y quien fue el que escribió los cómics de Sonichu, Rosechu, y yo? ¡YO!

YO fui a la Universidad Comunitaria de Piedmont Virginia para obtener mi título y certificado en Diseño Asistido por Computadora.

Me gradué perfectamente, y me recibí en Junio del 2006.

¿Donde está tu titulo de Manchester High? ¿Tu título de Piedmont de t—
¿Tu certificado de Piedmont en Diseño Asistido por Computadora?

¿Donde están? No los tienes, Tú no los tienes, ¿VERDAD?

Tú no los tienes, pero yo sí. Yo soy el verdadero Christopher Christian "Ricardo"
Weston Chandler. Entonces, por favor, para siempre, ahora y en el futuro,
¡deja este maldito juego! Impostor tonto y estúpido.

Además, me presenté. Ahora tú responde en español correcto. ¿No puedes? Entonces no eres el
verdadero. Tú eres el impostor.

¿Respondes en inglés? Eso no es bueno, no está bien, tonto impostor de rayas marrones.

Paz.

''¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas. Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai pris [sic] deux ans de français dans mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe. of PVCC. Auch hab ich zu lernen(?) von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind(?) ein Zertifikat in CADD.'' Hmm.


うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！(''Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba.'' (?) ''Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!'') Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uhh... first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses'']: I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of... Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all- [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. [[Autism]] is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you [[stress]]. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism. People with [[Asperger's]] take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear- start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg- I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh... remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh: I have made my rectum with [[Clyde]]- I mean I have- I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from [[Barbara|my mother]]'s retirements accounts, and I have apologi- and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could- this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d- I do not- I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles''. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the [[BILLY MAYS]] Library, Liquid himself, [[Mary Lee Walsh]], and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]].'']

Hmm... yeah, so uh... You know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh... I was able to buy my uh, my father [[Robert Chandler]] a uh, a new axe for his uh, [[Bob Walks In|woodworking hobby]]. And uh, I have- I have bought my- I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo- mother [[Snorlax|Barbara Chandler]] for her- for her music. And I have bought myself just- just a- a whole bunch of rare [[Transformers]] toys and animation programs off o- off of [[eBay]].

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh... The- the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official ''Sonichu magazine''. So hmm, why'n'ch- why'n'cha take a look here... [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast ''[[News Dash]]''.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

====Translation====

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the small vest, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took (it) two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French professor. I obtained my diploma with mention. I even have a certificate to commemorate when I was the manager of the (varsity) team. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

''¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas. Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai pris [sic] deux ans de français dans mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe. of PVCC. Auch hab ich zu lernen(?) von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind(?) ein Zertifikat in CADD.'' Hmm.


うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！(''Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba.'' (?) ''Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!'') Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uhh... first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses'']: I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of... Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all- [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. [[Autism]] is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you [[stress]]. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism. People with [[Asperger's]] take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear- start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg- I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh... remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh: I have made my rectum with [[Clyde]]- I mean I have- I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from [[Barbara|my mother]]'s retirements accounts, and I have apologi- and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could- this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d- I do not- I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles''. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the [[BILLY MAYS]] Library, Liquid himself, [[Mary Lee Walsh]], and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]].'']

Hmm... yeah, so uh... You know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh... I was able to buy my uh, my father [[Robert Chandler]] a uh, a new axe for his uh, [[Bob Walks In|woodworking hobby]]. And uh, I have- I have bought my- I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo- mother [[Snorlax|Barbara Chandler]] for her- for her music. And I have bought myself just- just a- a whole bunch of rare [[Transformers]] toys and animation programs off o- off of [[eBay]].

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh... The- the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official ''Sonichu magazine''. So hmm, why'n'ch- why'n'cha take a look here... [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast ''[[News Dash]]''.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

====Translation====

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the small vest, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took (it) two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French professor. I obtained my diploma with mention. I even have a certificate to commemorate when I was the manager of the *varsity) team. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

CWC Update 29 July 2009

2020-05-13T21:01:45Z

Stoplightguy: It must be noted the grammar is incorrect, so changed a few things in the french section

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls. Note that he somehow grew his full goatee back instantly.

He would later replace the video with an extended version, which adds a close-up of his driver's license and Chris asking his viewers to read about the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] on [[CWCipedia]], which he claims to be the new, official [[Sonichu]] website. Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me. Ignore all [[YouTube]] videos portraying me in a wrong sense, especially if it is not on my TRUE YouTube account, this one: I-B-A Chandler! Portra—playing also playing off of my father's license plate... a little bit. I B Mr. C! Follow Mr. C's, I'm an important C. (?) Mr. Chandler. [[IBAChandler]].

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK! [''points and goes to say something, but doesn't'']

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song. [''looks at paper, ponders.''] While it's NOT okay to be homosexual, I will not j—I will not personally judge any individual [''removes glasses again, and starts reading off the paper''] ...that one trait. I am willing to be friends with the homosexuals. And let me make it clear: [''drops glasses, lifts finger''] I will not tolerate '''any more damn, dirty, stupid question my dang orientation'''! I, Christopher Christian Weston Chandler, am STUH-RAIGHT! Have good faith in me.

And to all my True, Loyal viewers, fans, everybody. You will be rewarded. Look up the history of the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens for one, a full, extended story from. My. Head. And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism.

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the small vest, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French teacher. I obtained my diploma with mention. I even have a certificate to commemorate when I was the manager of the varsity team. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

CWC Update 29 July 2009

Stoplightguy: /* Transcript */

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls.

Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me.

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK! [''points and goes to say something, but doesn't'']

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song. [''looks at paper, ponders.''] While it's NOT okay to be homosexual, I will not j—I will not personally judge any individual [''removes glasses again, and starts reading off the paper''] ...that one trait. I am willing to be friends with the homosexuals. And let me make it clear: [''drops glasses, lifts finger''] I will not tolerate '''any more damn, dirty, stupid question my dang orientation'''! I, Christopher Christian Weston Chandler, am STUH-RAIGHT! Have good faith in me.

And to all my True, Loyal viewers, fans, everybody. You will be rewarded. Look up the history of the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens for one, a full, extended story from. My. Head. And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

Captain's Log, Stardate May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! The impostor in brown stripes! I have two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.

And during class I received the nickname I use on the Internet "Ricardo". Ricardo, my name in Spanish is Ricardo. Remember the Pokésite of RWC with CWC Pokésite 2 CWC Bionicle site and original Sonichu site.

I'm gonna bet you impostor that you didn't graduate from your high school. Really? I the real Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler not only did I graduate from Manchester High School [''shows his high school diploma''] with my diploma. My basketball diploma from my freshman year [''shows his stupid diploma''] Stupid.... You are stupid!

Not only with them but with my honor roll points, good!

And how was it that I wrote the comedians [''translator's note: He actually says comedians, instead of comics''] of Sonichu Rosechu and me?

I went to PVCC for my title, certificate of CADD [''shows a couple of diplomas, and second one of the them with his stupid Chris-chan drawing holding Megan''] I received a very good diploma in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Where is your certifica...—your certificate from PVCC for CADD? WHERE ARE THEY? You don't have them.... You don't have them, right?

You don't have them; I have them. I am the real Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, please, for eve... for all time in the future and now. Leave this damned game, you stupid dumb impostor.

Also, please respond in good Spanish, if not good? You are not real, you are the impostor, respond in English? NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD, YOU DUMB IMPOSTOR!!!

Peace

Captain's Log, Stardate: May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! Impostor in stripes of brown! I had two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.
And I received during my classes [''jump/pause''] the nickname that I used for my Internet: Ricardo. My name was Ricardo in the Spanish classes.

Remember the sp- the Pokésite de R.W.C with CWC Pokésite 2, CWC Bionicle site, the Original CWC Sonichu site.

I am going to make a bet: that you, the impostor didn't graduated from your High School. Really? I the truth, Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler. Didn't just graduated from Manchester High with my DEGREE. [''shows degree, then lowers it''] my degree of Basketball in my freshman year [''same previous motion'']. Stupid, you are stupid!

Not only it takes years but with my points of Honor Roll. Good! [''cut''] And how it was who wrote in the comedians of Sonichu, Rosechu and me, me! I went to Piedmont Virginia Community College for my title and certificate for Computer-Aided Drafting and Design. [''shows both certificates, and the second one seems to have some Chris-chan Sonichu & Megan art''] That I diplomated very good and received in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Your title from Piedmont, your certificate from Piedmont of Computer-Aided Drafting and Design.

You don't have them, I has. I am the true Christopher Christian "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, PLEASE, for all future and now actions. Stop this damned game! You stupid and dumb impostor.

==== A Spanish correction (AKA what Chris would've said if he could speak in Spanish at all) ====

Bitácora del Capitán, Fecha Estelar: 29 de Mayo, 2009

¡Ay, impostor de rayas cafés! Yo llevé dos años de Español en mi preparatoria,
Manchester High, con mi querida maestra. Durante estas clases, recibí el apodo que
uso en internet, RICARDO. Este fue mi nombre en las clases de Español. Recuerden
el ''Pokésite'' de R.W.C, el segundo ''Pokésite'' de CWC, el sitio de bionic de CWC y el
sitio original de Sonichu.

Voy a hacer una apuesta. Apuesto a que tú, impostor, no te graduaste de tu preparatoria. ¡En serio! Yo el verdadero, Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler, no solamente me gradué de Manchester High con mi TÍTULO, sino también con mi título de Basquetbol en mi primer año. ¡Estúpido! ERES UN ESTÚPIDO.

Y no solamente me gradué con éstos [''diplomas''], sino también con mis puntos en el Cuadro de Honor. ¿Cómo ves?

¿Y quien fue el que escribió los cómics de Sonichu, Rosechu, y yo? ¡YO!

YO fui a la Universidad Comunitaria de Piedmont Virginia para obtener mi título y certificado en Diseño Asistido por Computadora.

Me gradué perfectamente, y me recibí en Junio del 2006.

¿Donde está tu titulo de Manchester High? ¿Tu título de Piedmont de t—
¿Tu certificado de Piedmont en Diseño Asistido por Computadora?

¿Donde están? No los tienes, Tú no los tienes, ¿VERDAD?

Tú no los tienes, pero yo sí. Yo soy el verdadero Christopher Christian "Ricardo"
Weston Chandler. Entonces, por favor, para siempre, ahora y en el futuro,
¡deja este maldito juego! Impostor tonto y estúpido.

Además, me presenté. Ahora tú responde en español correcto. ¿No puedes? Entonces no eres el
verdadero. Tú eres el impostor.

¿Respondes en inglés? Eso no es bueno, no está bien, tonto impostor de rayas marrones.

Paz.

[[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK! [''points and goes to say something, but doesn't'']

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song. [''looks at paper, ponders.''] While it's NOT okay to be homosexual, I will not j—I will not personally judge any individual [''removes glasses again, and starts reading off the paper''] ...that one trait. I am willing to be friends with the homosexuals. And let me make it clear: [''drops glasses, lifts finger''] I will not tolerate '''any more damn, dirty, stupid question my dang orientation'''! I, Christopher Christian Weston Chandler, am STUH-RAIGHT! Have good faith in me.

And to all my True, Loyal viewers, fans, everybody. You will be rewarded. Look up the history of the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens for one, a full, extended story from. My. Head. And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

Aye! The impostor in brown stripes! I have two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.

And during class I received the nickname I use on the Internet "Ricardo". Ricardo, my name in Spanish is Ricardo. Remember the Pokésite of RWC with CWC Pokésite 2 CWC Bionicle site and original Sonichu site.

I'm gonna bet you impostor that you didn't graduate from your high school. Really? I the real Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler not only did I graduate from Manchester High School [''shows his high school diploma''] with my diploma. My basketball diploma from my freshman year [''shows his stupid diploma''] Stupid.... You are stupid!

Not only with them but with my honor roll points, good!

And how was it that I wrote the comedians [''translator's note: He actually says comedians, instead of comics''] of Sonichu Rosechu and me?

I went to PVCC for my title, certificate of CADD [''shows a couple of diplomas, and second one of the them with his stupid Chris-chan drawing holding Megan''] I received a very good diploma in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Where is your certifica...—your certificate from PVCC for CADD? WHERE ARE THEY? You don't have them.... You don't have them, right?

You don't have them; I have them. I am the real Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, please, for eve... for all time in the future and now. Leave this damned game, you stupid dumb impostor.

Captain's Log, Stardate: May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! Impostor in stripes of brown! I had two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.
And I received during my classes [''jump/pause''] the nickname that I used for my Internet: Ricardo. My name was Ricardo in the Spanish classes.

Remember the sp- the Pokésite de R.W.C with CWC Pokésite 2, CWC Bionicle site, the Original CWC Sonichu site.

I am going to make a bet: that you, the impostor didn't graduated from your High School. Really? I the truth, Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler. Didn't just graduated from Manchester High with my DEGREE. [''shows degree, then lowers it''] my degree of Basketball in my freshman year [''same previous motion'']. Stupid, you are stupid!

Not only it takes years but with my points of Honor Roll. Good! [''cut''] And how it was who wrote in the comedians of Sonichu, Rosechu and me, me! I went to Piedmont Virginia Community College for my title and certificate for Computer-Aided Drafting and Design. [''shows both certificates, and the second one seems to have some Chris-chan Sonichu & Megan art''] That I diplomated very good and received in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Your title from Piedmont, your certificate from Piedmont of Computer-Aided Drafting and Design.

Where is it? You don't have them. [''dramatic glasses removal''] You don't have them, RIGHT?

You don't have them, I has. I am the true Christopher Christian "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, PLEASE, for all future and now actions. Stop this damned game! You stupid and dumb impostor.

Also, Make present. Respond in good Spanish. If not, what good? You are not the real one. You are the impostor.

Peace.

==== A Spanish correction (AKA what Chris would've said if he could speak in Spanish at all) ====

Bitácora del Capitán, Fecha Estelar: 29 de Mayo, 2009

¡Ay, impostor de rayas cafés! Yo llevé dos años de Español en mi preparatoria,
Manchester High, con mi querida maestra. Durante estas clases, recibí el apodo que
uso en internet, RICARDO. Este fue mi nombre en las clases de Español. Recuerden
el ''Pokésite'' de R.W.C, el segundo ''Pokésite'' de CWC, el sitio de bionic de CWC y el
sitio original de Sonichu.

Voy a hacer una apuesta. Apuesto a que tú, impostor, no te graduaste de tu preparatoria. ¡En serio! Yo el verdadero, Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler, no solamente me gradué de Manchester High con mi TÍTULO, sino también con mi título de Basquetbol en mi primer año. ¡Estúpido! ERES UN ESTÚPIDO.

Y no solamente me gradué con éstos [''diplomas''], sino también con mis puntos en el Cuadro de Honor. ¿Cómo ves?

¿Y quien fue el que escribió los cómics de Sonichu, Rosechu, y yo? ¡YO!

YO fui a la Universidad Comunitaria de Piedmont Virginia para obtener mi título y certificado en Diseño Asistido por Computadora.

Me gradué perfectamente, y me recibí en Junio del 2006.

¿Donde está tu titulo de Manchester High? ¿Tu título de Piedmont de t—
¿Tu certificado de Piedmont en Diseño Asistido por Computadora?

¿Donde están? No los tienes, Tú no los tienes, ¿VERDAD?

Tú no los tienes, pero yo sí. Yo soy el verdadero Christopher Christian "Ricardo"
Weston Chandler. Entonces, por favor, para siempre, ahora y en el futuro,
¡deja este maldito juego! Impostor tonto y estúpido.

Además, me presenté. Ahora tú responde en español correcto. ¿No puedes? Entonces no eres el
verdadero. Tú eres el impostor.

¿Respondes en inglés? Eso no es bueno, no está bien, tonto impostor de rayas marrones.

Paz.

''¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas. Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai pris deux ans de français des mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe. of PVCC. Auch hab ich zu lernen(?) von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind(?) ein Zertifikat in CADD.'' Hmm.


うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！(''Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba.'' (?) ''Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!'') Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uhh... first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses'']: I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of... Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all- [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. [[Autism]] is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you [[stress]]. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism. People with [[Asperger's]] take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear- start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg- I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh... remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh: I have made my rectum with [[Clyde]]- I mean I have- I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from [[Barbara|my mother]]'s retirements accounts, and I have apologi- and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could- this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d- I do not- I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles''. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the [[BILLY MAYS]] Library, Liquid himself, [[Mary Lee Walsh]], and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]].'']

Hmm... yeah, so uh... You know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh... I was able to buy my uh, my father [[Robert Chandler]] a uh, a new axe for his uh, [[Bob Walks In|woodworking hobby]]. And uh, I have- I have bought my- I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo- mother [[Snorlax|Barbara Chandler]] for her- for her music. And I have bought myself just- just a- a whole bunch of rare [[Transformers]] toys and animation programs off o- off of [[eBay]].

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh... The- the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official ''Sonichu magazine''. So hmm, why'n'ch- why'n'cha take a look here... [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast ''[[News Dash]]''.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

====Translation====

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the small vest, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French teacher. I obtained my diploma with mention. I even have a certificate to commemorate being the manager of the varsity team. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

CWC Update 29 July 2009

2020-05-12T08:19:51Z

Stoplightguy: The certificate bit is talking about being the manager of the varsity team in high school, I think the PVCC bit is another sentence entierly.

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls. Note that he somehow grew his full goatee back instantly.

He would later replace the video with an extended version, which adds a close-up of his driver's license and Chris asking his viewers to read about the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] on [[CWCipedia]], which he claims to be the new, official [[Sonichu]] website. Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me. Ignore all [[YouTube]] videos portraying me in a wrong sense, especially if it is not on my TRUE YouTube account, this one: I-B-A Chandler! Portra—playing also playing off of my father's license plate... a little bit. I B Mr. C! Follow Mr. C's, I'm an important C. (?) Mr. Chandler. [[IBAChandler]].

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT!

Also, please respond in good Spanish, if not good? You are not real, you are the impostor, respond in English? NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD, YOU DUMB IMPOSTOR!!!

Captain's Log, Stardate: May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! Impostor in stripes of brown! I had two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.
And I received during my classes [''jump/pause''] the nickname that I used for my Internet: Ricardo. My name was Ricardo in the Spanish classes.

Remember the sp- the Pokésite de R.W.C with CWC Pokésite 2, CWC Bionicle site, the Original CWC Sonichu site.

I am going to make a bet: that you, the impostor didn't graduated from your High School. Really? I the truth, Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler. Didn't just graduated from Manchester High with my DEGREE. [''shows degree, then lowers it''] my degree of Basketball in my freshman year [''same previous motion'']. Stupid, you are stupid!

Not only it takes years but with my points of Honor Roll. Good! [''cut''] And how it was who wrote in the comedians of Sonichu, Rosechu and me, me! I went to Piedmont Virginia Community College for my title and certificate for Computer-Aided Drafting and Design. [''shows both certificates, and the second one seems to have some Chris-chan Sonichu & Megan art''] That I diplomated very good and received in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Your title from Piedmont, your certificate from Piedmont of Computer-Aided Drafting and Design.

Where is it? You don't have them. [''dramatic glasses removal''] You don't have them, RIGHT?

You don't have them, I has. I am the true Christopher Christian "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, PLEASE, for all future and now actions. Stop this damned game! You stupid and dumb impostor.

Also, Make present. Respond in good Spanish. If not, what good? You are not the real one. You are the impostor.

Respond in English? Not good. Not good, dumb impostor stripes of brown.

Peace.

Bitácora del Capitán, Fecha Estelar: 29 de Mayo, 2009

¡Ay, impostor de rayas cafés! Yo llevé dos años de Español en mi preparatoria,
Manchester High, con mi querida maestra. Durante estas clases, recibí el apodo que
uso en internet, RICARDO. Este fue mi nombre en las clases de Español. Recuerden
el ''Pokésite'' de R.W.C, el segundo ''Pokésite'' de CWC, el sitio de bionic de CWC y el
sitio original de Sonichu.

Voy a hacer una apuesta. Apuesto a que tú, impostor, no te graduaste de tu preparatoria. ¡En serio! Yo el verdadero, Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler, no solamente me gradué de Manchester High con mi TÍTULO, sino también con mi título de Basquetbol en mi primer año. ¡Estúpido! ERES UN ESTÚPIDO.

Y no solamente me gradué con éstos [''diplomas''], sino también con mis puntos en el Cuadro de Honor. ¿Cómo ves?

¿Y quien fue el que escribió los cómics de Sonichu, Rosechu, y yo? ¡YO!

YO fui a la Universidad Comunitaria de Piedmont Virginia para obtener mi título y certificado en Diseño Asistido por Computadora.

Me gradué perfectamente, y me recibí en Junio del 2006.

¿Donde está tu titulo de Manchester High? ¿Tu título de Piedmont de t—

¡deja este maldito juego! Impostor tonto y estúpido.

Además, me presenté. Ahora tú responde en español correcto. ¿No puedes? Entonces no eres el

''¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas. Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai pris dans le français des mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe of PVCC. Auch hab ich zu lernen(?) von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind(?) ein Zertifikat in CADD.'' Hmm.


うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！(''Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba.'' (?) ''Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!'') Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uhh... first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses'']: I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of... Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all- [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. [[Autism]] is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you [[stress]]. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism. People with [[Asperger's]] take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear- start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg- I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh... remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh: I have made my rectum with [[Clyde]]- I mean I have- I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from [[Barbara|my mother]]'s retirements accounts, and I have apologi- and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could- this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d- I do not- I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles''. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the [[BILLY MAYS]] Library, Liquid himself, [[Mary Lee Walsh]], and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]].'']

Hmm... yeah, so uh... You know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh... I was able to buy my uh, my father [[Robert Chandler]] a uh, a new axe for his uh, [[Bob Walks In|woodworking hobby]]. And uh, I have- I have bought my- I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo- mother [[Snorlax|Barbara Chandler]] for her- for her music. And I have bought myself just- just a- a whole bunch of rare [[Transformers]] toys and animation programs off o- off of [[eBay]].

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh... The- the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official ''Sonichu magazine''. So hmm, why'n'ch- why'n'cha take a look here... [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast ''[[News Dash]]''.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

====Translation====

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the vest small, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French teacher. I obtained my diploma with mention. I even have a certificate to commemorate being the manager of the varsity team. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

CWC Update 29 July 2009

2020-05-12T08:09:00Z

Stoplightguy: /* Translation */

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls. Note that he somehow grew his full goatee back instantly.

He would later replace the video with an extended version, which adds a close-up of his driver's license and Chris asking his viewers to read about the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] on [[CWCipedia]], which he claims to be the new, official [[Sonichu]] website. Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me. Ignore all [[YouTube]] videos portraying me in a wrong sense, especially if it is not on my TRUE YouTube account, this one: I-B-A Chandler! Portra—playing also playing off of my father's license plate... a little bit. I B Mr. C! Follow Mr. C's, I'm an important C. (?) Mr. Chandler. [[IBAChandler]].

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK! [''points and goes to say something, but doesn't'']

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song. [''looks at paper, ponders.''] While it's NOT okay to be homosexual, I will not j—I will not personally judge any individual [''removes glasses again, and starts reading off the paper''] ...that one trait. I am willing to be friends with the homosexuals. And let me make it clear: [''drops glasses, lifts finger''] I will not tolerate '''any more damn, dirty, stupid question my dang orientation'''! I, Christopher Christian Weston Chandler, am STUH-RAIGHT! Have good faith in me.

And to all my True, Loyal viewers, fans, everybody. You will be rewarded. Look up the history of the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens for one, a full, extended story from. My. Head. And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

Hello! This is the real Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor in the vest small, I do not only to understand your last video, but it has excellent command over the Spanish language. I can establish my identity they speak many languages. I also speak French as I took two years of french during my high school years at Manchester. With my pretty French teacher. I got my diploma with mention.I even have a certificate since I was the [Can't remember the equivalent] in the team of the PVCC. [Can't make this out, but it sounds like "I also have to learn from Germans"] and I am capable to speak fluent German. Not to be expected, but [can't make it out, sounds like "I are a certificate"] in CADD. Hmm. It's a lie, the photo, though effort has been made. Well, if he is the real Chris, then he should be able to read this, but he has to answer every question in these languages!

CWC Update 29 July 2009

2020-05-12T08:08:40Z

Stoplightguy: The french translation had a bit of a problem. I believe he's saying "je l'ai pris deux ans de francais a mes anees lycee a manchester." This literally translates to "as i took (it) two years of french at my high school years in Manchester."

In "'''CWC Update 29 July 2009'''" (officially "'''CWC Update 07292009'''" for the original video and its extended cut, "'''CWC Update 07292009-2'''" for the Spanish companion video), [[Chris]] explains that he is a [[troll]] trolling trolls. Note that he somehow grew his full goatee back instantly.

He would later replace the video with an extended version, which adds a close-up of his driver's license and Chris asking his viewers to read about the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] on [[CWCipedia]], which he claims to be the new, official [[Sonichu]] website. Also of note is the addendum, in which Chris horribly mangles the language of Cervantes and infuriates many a speaker of the world's second language with most native speakers.

Chris posted [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=CWC_Speaks an article] on the CWCipedia that contains his TRUE and HONEST transcription and translation of his rant. To everyone's utter surprise, he fails at both.

Alright... [[Captain's Log]], Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with right off the bat. Dispelling rumors and making a few points. There are NO official [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]] merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying right now, it's fake, especially from the damn [[niggos|black]]—brown... brown striped [[CChanSonichuCWC|impostor]] posing as me. Ignore all [[YouTube]] videos portraying me in a wrong sense, especially if it is not on my TRUE YouTube account, this one: I-B-A Chandler! Portra—playing also playing off of my father's license plate... a little bit. I B Mr. C! Follow Mr. C's, I'm an important C. (?) Mr. Chandler. [[IBAChandler]].

And yes, it is true, [[Rollin' and Trollin'|I have called myself a troll]], because I am trolling my trolls back! So, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls ONLY. I am not a troll to any of the TRUE, [[HONEST]] people out there. I just—because of the Internet, and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you're not a troll, and you know you're not, it does not apply to you. Otherwise, you know you're a troll. I'M TROLLIN' YOU BACK!

And... it's okay to be... [[autism|stupid]] sometimes. Stupid... [[It's UGH!|damn, dirty song!]] While it is NOT okay to be [[homos]]exual, I will let—I will personally not judge any individual of that... one trait. I am willing to be friends with homosexuals. And let me make it clear: I will NOT TOLERATE ANY FURTHER DAMN, DIRTY STUPID QUESTIONS QUESTIONING MY DANG ORIENTATION! I, CHRISTOPHER "CHRISTIAN" WESTON CHANDLER, AM STRAIGHT! Have good faith... in me. And... to all my loyal, true [[trolls|viewers, fans everybody]]: you will be rewarded.

I leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

Alright. Captain's Log, Stardate: July 29th, 2009.

Let's get this over with, right off the bat. Dispelling... rumors. And making a few points. [''looks at a piece of paper, apparently with his notes''] There are no... official... Sonichu or Rosechu merchandise yet. Whatever you're buying, right now, it's FAKE, especially from the damn black—brown—brown-STRIPED impostor posing as me. [''looks back at paper''] And I can best prove who I am. [''moves away from camera, but comes closer to it and shoves his face in the camera''] CLOSE UP. ZOOMING in on ME. [''shoves driver's license into the camera, mumbles''] With... my driver's license... with the customer number censored. [''flips the license around''] Can you copy FRONT and BACK? FRONT and BACK? [''turns it to its side''] THICKNESS? [''flips to the back''] Front... [''flips back to the front''] Front reflective Virginia... Can you see it? [''pulls license away and shoves his face back in''] I think... [''dramatic glasses removal''] ...not.

I think not. [''flashes license again'']

[''steps back into proper frame, reads off of paper'']

Ignore all YouTube videos portraying me in a wrong sense. Especially if it's not on my true YouTube account, this one, '''''IBA'''Chandler''. Portray—playing—also playing off my father's license plate. Little bit. I be Mr C. A lot of Mr. C's... I'm an important C.: Mr. Chandler. I be a Chandler.

[''looks back at paper'']

And yes, it is true: I have called myself a troll because I'm trolling my trolls back, so, in a sense, I am a troll to those trolls only. I am NOT a troll to any of the other TRUE and HONEST people out there. [''replaces glasses''] I just—because of the internet and whatnot, it's hard to tell the difference. So, if you are not a troll, and you know you're not, this does not apply to you. Otherwise, if you know you're a troll... [''shrugs, then points dramatically''] I'M TROLLING YOU BACK! [''points and goes to say something, but doesn't'']

AND... it'sokaytobestupids. [''he says this fast and softly, then mumbles''] ...That damn, dirty song. [''looks at paper, ponders.''] While it's NOT okay to be homosexual, I will not j—I will not personally judge any individual [''removes glasses again, and starts reading off the paper''] ...that one trait. I am willing to be friends with the homosexuals. And let me make it clear: [''drops glasses, lifts finger''] I will not tolerate '''any more damn, dirty, stupid question my dang orientation'''! I, Christopher Christian Weston Chandler, am STUH-RAIGHT! Have good faith in me.

And to all my True, Loyal viewers, fans, everybody. You will be rewarded. Look up the history of the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens for one, a full, extended story from. My. Head. And my hands, typed. On the new, the official, as of 2009, the new s—the official s—CWC's Sonichu and Rosechu Site.

I will leave that with you. Peace, and have a good day.

==Addendum==

In this video, Chris horribly mangles the Spanish language. There are a total of 18 jump cuts in this 193-second video, suggesting that rather than speaking Spanish as a second language, he simply wrote a script based on his limited knowledge and consulted it after every sentence, hoping no one would notice.

Captain's Log, Stardate May(?) 29th, 2009

Aye! The impostor in brown stripes! I have two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.

And during class I received the nickname I use on the Internet "Ricardo". Ricardo, my name in Spanish is Ricardo. Remember the Pokésite of RWC with CWC Pokésite 2 CWC Bionicle site and original Sonichu site.

I'm gonna bet you impostor that you didn't graduate from your high school. Really? I the real Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler not only did I graduate from Manchester High School [''shows his high school diploma''] with my diploma. My basketball diploma from my freshman year [''shows his stupid diploma''] Stupid.... You are stupid!

Not only with them but with my honor roll points, good!

And how was it that I wrote the comedians [''translator's note: He actually says comedians, instead of comics''] of Sonichu Rosechu and me?

I went to PVCC for my title, certificate of CADD [''shows a couple of diplomas, and second one of the them with his stupid Chris-chan drawing holding Megan''] I received a very good diploma in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Where is your certifica...—your certificate from PVCC for CADD? WHERE ARE THEY? You don't have them.... You don't have them, right?

You don't have them; I have them. I am the real Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, please, for eve... for all time in the future and now. Leave this damned game, you stupid dumb impostor.

Also, please respond in good Spanish, if not good? You are not real, you are the impostor, respond in English? NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD, YOU DUMB IMPOSTOR!!!

Aye! Impostor in stripes of brown! I had two years of Spanish in my secondary school, Manchester High, with my pretty lady.
And I received during my classes [''jump/pause''] the nickname that I used for my Internet: Ricardo. My name was Ricardo in the Spanish classes.

Remember the sp- the Pokésite de R.W.C with CWC Pokésite 2, CWC Bionicle site, the Original CWC Sonichu site.

I am going to make a bet: that you, the impostor didn't graduated from your High School. Really? I the truth, Christian Ricardo Weston Chandler. Didn't just graduated from Manchester High with my DEGREE. [''shows degree, then lowers it''] my degree of Basketball in my freshman year [''same previous motion'']. Stupid, you are stupid!

Not only it takes years but with my points of Honor Roll. Good! [''cut''] And how it was who wrote in the comedians of Sonichu, Rosechu and me, me! I went to Piedmont Virginia Community College for my title and certificate for Computer-Aided Drafting and Design. [''shows both certificates, and the second one seems to have some Chris-chan Sonichu & Megan art''] That I diplomated very good and received in June 2006.

Where is your title from Manchester High? Your title from Piedmont, your certificate from Piedmont of Computer-Aided Drafting and Design.

Where is it? You don't have them. [''dramatic glasses removal''] You don't have them, RIGHT?

You don't have them, I has. I am the true Christopher Christian "Ricardo" Weston Chandler. So, PLEASE, for all future and now actions. Stop this damned game! You stupid and dumb impostor.

Also, Make present. Respond in good Spanish. If not, what good? You are not the real one. You are the impostor.

Respond in English? Not good. Not good, dumb impostor stripes of brown.

Peace.

==== A Spanish correction (AKA what Chris would've said if he could speak in Spanish at all) ====

Bitácora del Capitán, Fecha Estelar: 29 de Mayo, 2009

¡Ay, impostor de rayas cafés! Yo llevé dos años de Español en mi preparatoria,
Manchester High, con mi querida maestra. Durante estas clases, recibí el apodo que
uso en internet, RICARDO. Este fue mi nombre en las clases de Español. Recuerden
el ''Pokésite'' de R.W.C, el segundo ''Pokésite'' de CWC, el sitio de bionic de CWC y el
sitio original de Sonichu.

Voy a hacer una apuesta. Apuesto a que tú, impostor, no te graduaste de tu preparatoria. ¡En serio! Yo el verdadero, Christopher "Christian" "Ricardo" Weston Chandler, no solamente me gradué de Manchester High con mi TÍTULO, sino también con mi título de Basquetbol en mi primer año. ¡Estúpido! ERES UN ESTÚPIDO.

Y no solamente me gradué con éstos [''diplomas''], sino también con mis puntos en el Cuadro de Honor. ¿Cómo ves?

¿Y quien fue el que escribió los cómics de Sonichu, Rosechu, y yo? ¡YO!

YO fui a la Universidad Comunitaria de Piedmont Virginia para obtener mi título y certificado en Diseño Asistido por Computadora.

Me gradué perfectamente, y me recibí en Junio del 2006.

¿Donde está tu titulo de Manchester High? ¿Tu título de Piedmont de t—
¿Tu certificado de Piedmont en Diseño Asistido por Computadora?

¿Donde están? No los tienes, Tú no los tienes, ¿VERDAD?

Tú no los tienes, pero yo sí. Yo soy el verdadero Christopher Christian "Ricardo"
Weston Chandler. Entonces, por favor, para siempre, ahora y en el futuro,
¡deja este maldito juego! Impostor tonto y estúpido.

Además, me presenté. Ahora tú responde en español correcto. ¿No puedes? Entonces no eres el
verdadero. Tú eres el impostor.

¿Respondes en inglés? Eso no es bueno, no está bien, tonto impostor de rayas marrones.

Paz.

''¡Hola! Este es el verdadero Ricardo Weston Chandler. Impostor en el pequeño chaleco, yo no solo comprender su ultimo video, pero tiene excelente dominio de la idioma de Cervantes. Puedo establecer mi identidad hablan muchos idiomas. Je parle aussi Français comme je l'ai pris dans le français des mes années lycées à Manchester. Avec ma jolie professeure de français. J'ai obtenu ma [sic] diplôme avec mention. J'ai même un certificat à partir du moment où j'ai été l'assistant-responsable de l'équipe of PVCC. Auch hab ich zu lernen(?) von Deutschen und bin in der Lage, zu sprechen fließend Deutsch. Nicht zu erwarten, aber il- ich sind(?) ein Zertifikat in CADD.'' Hmm.


うそなんじゃフォトはせっかく工夫は済めば. まぁ、そうには正しいクリスならばと読める彼だが、彼の問題は全てこれらの言語で応答する必要がありますぅ！(''Usonanja foto wa sekkaku kufuu wa sumeba.'' (?) ''Ma, souni wa tadashii Chris naraba to yomeru kare daga. Kano mondai wa subete korera no gengo de outou suru hitsuyou ga arimasu~!'') Hmm. Um, hmm...

I wish to go over a number of things, but uhh... first I'd like to tell you [''dramatic glasses removal, and replaces glasses'']: I love my sweet Kacey! My sweetheart Kacey and I are going to be together forever! And I love her with my heart! And we met because of... Sonichu! She will be my caring girl and I will never leave her. We have already gone out on our FIRST DATE. FIRST DATE! Hmm...

Now, uh, on to more important things. I wish to, uh, as a high-functioning autistic male, uh, to explain autism, briefly to y'all- [''jump cut'']

Now a, uh, public service announcement, if you will. [[Autism]] is a mental block where uh, it's hard to do things and even the slightest of things that you don't want to do will uh, give you [[stress]]. When you are uh, stressed as an autistic, it's just easy to fall asleep. And Asperger's Sydrome is- does something to this very similar to autism. People with [[Asperger's]] take things very literally, which sometimes is another mental block to understanding others, or the ladies. Hmm. Both the Asperger's and autism are start from a ear- start from an early age, in which you are diagnosed and given documents proving it. My name is Christian Weston Chandler, and I swear on my Asperg- I mean my autism, that uh, that these things must be, uh... remembered.

Oh uh, and another thing, uh: I have made my rectum with [[Clyde]]- I mean I have- I have rectified things with Clyde. He has uh, apologized for uh, taking money from [[Barbara|my mother]]'s retirements accounts, and I have apologi- and has apologized for torturing me in the past. I thank you, Clyde, and uh, this could- this could be the start of a uh, beautiful friendship. I d- I do not- I do not have to worry about him uh, you know, trolling me anymore...

And finally, uh, ''Sonichu: The Crystal Chronicles''. Hmmm. The game is, uh, coming along so well that I have been able to print out the images that the uh, that the designer has sent me.

[''shuffles through a bunch of papers showing the design process and character concepts. Notable standouts are the [[BILLY MAYS]] Library, Liquid himself, [[Mary Lee Walsh]], and the [[Man in the Pickle Suit]].'']

Hmm... yeah, so uh... You know, I'm doin' pretty well right now, uh... I was able to buy my uh, my father [[Robert Chandler]] a uh, a new axe for his uh, [[Bob Walks In|woodworking hobby]]. And uh, I have- I have bought my- I have bought my uh, a uh, Pokémon Flutes for my uh, for my mo- mother [[Snorlax|Barbara Chandler]] for her- for her music. And I have bought myself just- just a- a whole bunch of rare [[Transformers]] toys and animation programs off o- off of [[eBay]].

[''Voice that sounds like Homer Simpson'']"Autobots, defeat those Decepticlones!"

Peace. Oh, hmm, and another thing uh... The- the uh, Dark Horse Publishers has uh, offered me a, to create my own uh, template for a uh, official ''Sonichu magazine''. So hmm, why'n'ch- why'n'cha take a look here... [''Shows the cover of his magazine''] It's the uh, Rapid Fast ''[[News Dash]]''.

Hmmm. I love ya Kacey!

'''Anna Elizabeth McLerran''' (born 30 July [[1985]]<ref>Anna [https://archive.today/D1ev6 stated on Facebook] that 30 July 2014 was her 29th birthday</ref>) is a [[gal pal]] and [[white knight]] who met [[Chris]] through her job at the Pac Sun in the [[Charlottesville Fashion Square]]. Chris was brought to her attention when, during the [[Love Quest]] era, he started advertising himself in front of the store. This inspired her short story [[The Tale Of The Crazy Pacer]], published early in [[2005]].<ref>[http://dangerless.blogspot.com/2005/02/story-7.html http://dangerless.blogspot.com/2005/02/story-7.html]</ref>

After publishing the story she befriended Chris and he threw her a surprise birthday party. Chris made romantic advances towards her until she told him she was a [[Chris and religion|Mormon]] and a [[Homos|lesbian]], even before coming out to family, in order to rebuff his advances (although humorously, as Mormons are profoundly against homosexuality, Chris' belief in this further reinforces his extreme gullibility).<ref>Via [http://www.formspring.me/AMcLerran Formspring]:"...it was the only way to get him to stop thinking of me as a 'candidate'..."</ref><ref>[http://thundercamp.tumblr.com/post/2784133782/tell-your-parents-something-youve-been-witholding Anna's Tumblr page]</ref> Chris refers to her as proof that he can be friends with [[homos|homosexuals]].<ref>[[IRC (27 December 2008)]]</ref>

Most people who observe Chris intensely dislike Anna, as she is not seen to be a genuine [[Chris_and_socialization|friend]] to Chris; sometimes even equated with [[Barb]] in terms of making Chris worse, because like Barb, she has (or at least has had in the past) considerable influence over Chris, but seldom uses it to help him improve his life. Chris's observers note that [[28 October 2011|the first time]] Chris ran afoul of the law, she made a joke ''about him getting raped in prison'' on [[Facebook]], not exactly what friends say in these situations. Moreover, after [[Destruction Of Chris's House|his house burned down]], while even the denizens of the CWCki Forums were putting together a [[Destruction_Of_Chris's_House#Aftermath_and_reaction|care package]] for Chris, Anna was nowhere to be seen - until she popped up on one of Chris's Facebook statuses to discuss irrelevant drama, and was promptly called out for not even pretending to care that her "friend's" house had burned to the ground.

It should also be noted that Anna was initially a troll of sorts, sharing her interactions with Chris on the [[CWCki Forums]], at one point hosting a conference call with leading trolls wherein she primarily talked about herself, and seemingly only turned to counter-trolling when she didn't get the adoration she'd anticipated from the trolling community. Despite her apparent apathy to Chris or his problems (beyond the trolls of course), Anna is also known to lash out at people who threaten her privileged position by befriending Chris, including [[Kim Wilson]], a long-time friend of Chris's that he knows IRL, whom Anna tried to falsely out as a troll.

In short, most believe Anna is an attention-seeker who pretends to be Chris's friend for her own benefit, tries to function as his gatekeeper to give herself some illusion of power, and (nowadays, at least) only occasionally involves herself in his affairs for a fresh fix of attention, and by all accounts, she only associates with Chris in order to feel better about her own insecurities, that way she can say at least someone is worse off than she is.

Even Chris doesn't seem to deem her to be a friend anymore – as of 2015, he has been pining for the return of his [[gal-pals]] because he has no friends or social life, with no mention of Anna.

==Protection of Chris==
After Christian discovered The Crazy Pacer story on [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], Anna felt a need to defend Chris against the internet at large. In a textbook case of [[White knight|white knighting]], she edited Chris's ED page. Anna added a new section to the article, in an attempt to paint Chris as a [[Chris and fashion|goofy clown]], rather than a [[12 October 2009|perverse psychotic]].

{{quote|I wrote that blog back when I didn't know Chris personally. I got to know him soon after that, and we became real friends. He's a really nice guy, with a great sense of [[Random-access humor|humor]]. Yes, to the outsider he is quirky, and some of his actions and the things he says can be funny, but at the same time he cares deeply about his friends, and all the other good stuff nobody looking at this page wants to hear about. I just wanted to put that out there, though, since I obviously can't permanently delete the blog inclusion. I'll just have to wait until this whole website is shut down for good.|Note from Anniebannany<ref>http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php?title=Chris-chan&diff=next&oldid=1997694799</ref>}}

This passage was so masturbatory that ED users assumed Chris himself wrote it, and it was credited accordingly. However, in [[December 2009]], Anna admitted to writing the article section herself.<ref>http://twitter.com/ourladyanna/status/6427862439</ref> It is unknown why she had actually befriended him, but according to her, her intentions were pure.<ref>http://twitter.com/ourladyanna/status/40869014897045504</ref>

{{quote|C-Chan continues to crack me up with his antics. I know he's straight, but LAWD. If that boy would just heed even a few of my warnings, I flatter myself to think he'd go far.|Anna (clearly delusional)<ref>http://annamclerran.blogspot.com/2009/01/el-dee-ess-bee-see.html</ref>}}

On the night of 5 [[December 2009]], Anna complained about socialite [[Wikipedia:Nicole Ritchie|Nicole Ritchie]] having appropriated a classic picture of Christian in his mother's underwear to use against faux-punk guitarist [[Wikipedia:Benji Madden|Benji Madden]]. Anna, self-appointed guardian of Chris, kicked up a stink, demanding that the picture be taken down, as if it could not be found elsewhere. According to Anna, "he's autistic and does whatever the internet tells him to do :(",<ref name="twitpic">http://twitpic.com/s7pfi</ref> ignoring the substantial amount of depravity that he exhibits without any outside encouragement. Anna went on to criticize the CWCki and other sources of the truth about Chris, claiming that "there is very little truth to anything those websites say about him. trust me on this one. he is an awesome guy in real life. [[Death threats|super nice]]."<ref name="twitpic"/> This is all very amusing when you consider her initial reaction to seeing the picture: "WHAT THE FUCK hahahahahhahahahaaha he's getting so famous!!"<ref>[http://twitter.com/ourladyanna/status/6377147359 Anna's Twitter]</ref>

In [[April 2012]], after Chris's [[Facebook]] status about his claims to losing his [[virgin with rage|virgin]]ity became public, Anna (using the name Fighta Jet Lopez) lashed out against trolls, and tried to offer Chris advice about befriending people online that he didn't know in real life.<ref>http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/435/anacwc.png</ref>
{{-}}

Needless to say, Anna isn't popular amongst the troll community, since she not only remains a [[White knight|staunch defender]] of Chris' antics, but is also pretty delusional, especially when the evidence of Chris' [[Tomgirl Pictures|own]] [[Death threats|mental]] [[28 October 2011|instability]] is practically hitting her right in the face. Like Christian's parents, Anna is an enabler, albeit an indirect one, who opts to tell Chris [[Chris and his Ego|what he wants to hear]] instead of what he ''should'' hear. For example, in a response to Chris's complaining about fan-made [[My Little Pony]] videos on his [[Facebook]] page on June 26th, 2012, she had this to say:

{{quote|"I'm still [[Naïve|amazed]] at how so many [[Trolls|people]] think they can justify baiting and trolling an autistic man by calling him naive or saying he deserves it for _____. [[Twin Falling Towers|There]] [[CWC_Calls_Out_Three_Na%C3%AFve_YouTubers#CWC_Calls_Out_sonichuizcool|is]] [[Death threats|nothing]] [[6 June 2010|you]] [[Chris Drops the N-Bomb|could]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|do]], Christian, that would make you deserve ANY of this treatment."|Anna. Again, [[White_knight#Autism_does_not_excuse_a_terrible_person|clearly delusional]].<ref>http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/582/holycrapyouaredelusiona.png</ref>}}
{{-}}

If you need any more proof about this mollycoddling, delusional behavior, however, consider [[Facebook#Gay Marriage|a certain post Chris made on his Facebook page]], which struck a nerve with Anna because of its blatant anti-homosexual tones. Despite both Anna and [[Kim]] - usually staunch rivals - calling him out on it, he brushed them both off, not even offering Anna, herself a homosexual, an apology for his behavior in the thread.

Despite this, what did Anna say mere weeks later?

{{quote|"Just rewatched your [[DVD]] with a friend. She agrees with me that you are a sweetheart and it made me really miss you. I wished you lived close so I could introduce you to her-she's married, but she would make a great friend to you. I got to thinking when you and I first met and I pulled out my folder of all the things you've sent or given me over the years- your comics, letters, cards. It all just serves to illustrate what a [[White Knight|remarkable injustice]] these [[Trolls|people]] have done to you through the years. I don't care what anyone says, '''[[Death threats|you]] [[Twin Falling Towers|do]] [[Homos|not]] [[Megan emails, 2008#Megan is scarred by ShecameforCWC.JPG|deserve]] [[CWC Calls Out Three Naïve YouTubers#CWC Calls Out sonichuizcool|an]] [[Facebook#Imgur|ounce]] [[White knight#Autism does not excuse a terrible person|of]] [[Chris and anger|hate]]'''. You're an incredible person with [[Chris and art|incredible creativity and talent]], and I hope that your ability to create has not dimmed too much. I wish [[CWCki|more people knew the real you]] instead of this [[CWCFlyingElephants|strange]] [[Death threats|monster]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|the internet]] thinks you are. But I suppose that's how it is with celebrities of all kinds- people think they know them, but they never really do. [[Gal Pal|I love you]], and consider you one of my dearest friends and one of my most favorite people in the world. Stay strong, Christian. You have more [[Chaotic Combo|allies]] than you think."|Anna. Do we really need to say it again?}}
{{-}}

Keep in mind that this comes on the heels of not just a homophobic post he made, but a leak where he demanded that somebody murder Mimms' girlfriend.
It is ''very'' apparent that when it comes to [[white knight]] attitudes, Anna sits as queen, blissfully ignoring Chris' obvious problems and cheering him on, possibly until the day she dies.

Ironically, despite her encouragement, she has shown a severe dislike towards fellow Facebook white knight [[Kim Wilson]], suspecting her of being a troll. This is probably because although Kim also tries to improve Chris, she actually gives constructive and often harsh criticism rather than just confirming his ridiculous ideas and telling him what he wants to hear. Even more ironically, despite being one of Chris' most outspoken and staunch defenders online, Anna neither commented on nor showed any signs of helping Chris out when his house burned down, which ultimately means that his ''trolls'' have been more active in getting him back on his feet that his defenders. Make of that what you will.

===Twitter ramblings about Chris===
Following Anna's Facebook responses to Chris's loss of virginity, she saw an influx of trolls trying to befriend her on Facebook and follow her on [[Twitter]]. Despite voicing her hostility to the people who were following her only because they were trolling Chris, she continued to talk about him and them. Anna has since set her Twitter to private.<ref>https://twitter.com/#!/ourladyanna</ref>

===Chris dons the armor===

On 5 [[May 2012]] Chris and Anna reversed roles when he posted a [[Facebook#Hey, Doofs! Leave Anna Alone!|Facebook note]] in which he played the part of the white knight:

{{quote|She does NOT deserve to be bothered by you doofy trolls at all. It has always been ME you want. [...] Yes, she is cute, and it is possible that she may look like my [[mom]] at a younger age, but I do not see my mom in her, and she is who she is, and I respect Anna as a friend.

Aim your [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|shit]] towards me alone, and Leave All of My Friends and Family alone.|Chris}}

Chris has stood up for Anna in the past as well. On 14 [[March 2010]] he wrote a [[CWC Blog#14 March 2010|blog post]] on the [[CWCipedia]] asking the CWCki's webmaster to remove from her website all mentions of Anna's name (and of the names of several other acquaintances of his) in the same way all mentions of [[The Wallflower]]'s real name were removed from the CWCki.

===Disagreements with Chris===

On 28 March 2013, Chris posted the following to his [[Facebook]] account, complaining about media coverage of the historic [[wikipedia:Hollingsworth v. Perry|Hollingsworth v. Perry]] Supreme Court deliberations:

{{quote|Another thing that really Grinds My Gears:

I mean no personal offense, and I am For Lesbians being together and their marriage. But I am really offended with the damn homosexual males altogether. So I am like 50/50 on the current topic in the newspapers, but I am 100% sick, tired and disgusted of having to read at least the headlines in the Post. Talk about something else already!|Chris on Facebook, 28 [[March 2013]]}}

To widespread surprise, Anna defied her usual pattern of being a mindless enabler to inform Chris that his logic was a bit [[slow in the mind]], in a change of the status quo that suggested Chris' antics were beginning to alienate even his staunchest defenders:

{{quote|it isn't right for you to be okay with lesbians and not be okay with gays|Anna, beginning to tire of Chris' nonsense}}

The next day, Chris responded:

{{quote|Like it is not right for me to prefer women over men for attraction and companionship? Or a number of women not liking women over men for their catty attitudes?|Chris, [[Honor roll|not making any sense whatsoever]]}}

As seen above, Chris's reply was nothing but an incoherent red herring, completely side-stepping the original question of why it was right for lesbians to marry and not right for gay men to. The real answer, of course, is because, to Chris, gay men are disgusting and [[Homos#Views on lesbianism|lesbians are hot]].

===Anti-troll plea to Catie===
On 18 [[December 2014]], it was leaked on the CWCki Forums that Anna desperately tried to stop [[Catherine|Catie]] from continuing her relationship with Chris, as Anna suspected (correctly, suprisingly) that Catie was a troll posing as a [[boyfriend-free girl]]. Unfortunately for Anna, [[Catherine#The Date|Chris had met Catie at that point]] and was completely infatuated - Anna was fighting a losing battle. This incident does however reveal that Anna is still at least peripherally involved in Chris' life, despite the apparent silence since their spat over gay marriage.

Her last-ditch attempt to dislodge Catie was an attempted appeal to Catie's humanity:<ref>http://kiwifar.ms/threads/2014-dec-18-annas-anti-troll-plea-to-catie.6596/</ref>

{{quoteboxred|You really need to leave Christian alone. It's so painfully obvious to anyone on the outside that you have a fake profile specifically designed to troll him. Just about every paragraph holds a clue against you. The fake license was a pathetic effort, but one you knew would work well enough on someone [[Naïve|naive]]. Too bad you used the wrong font, didn't match the background color, made your fake signature longer than the signature box would allow, and forgot to put the second signature over the picture.

I don't care what you're hoping to get out of this--whether you want to troll him to do something funny, or simply get him to trust you to ultimately help him. You are doing far more damage than you think. You're messing with an autistic man who simply won't see the truth because he wants the lie so badly. And that's sick. You're not just messing with him, though--you're messing with his mom, and you're messing with me.

Whatever your opinion of his mom is, it doesn't give you the right to break her heart either. She doesn't deserve to be given false hope that maybe her son HAS found a soul mate and WILL be taken care of after she's gone. Because that's her greatest fear, and you're playing on it like a predator.

So just stop. I know you're probably pretending to be upset with him right now so that you'll get him desperate enough to do whatever you tell him. It's obscene. Let it go, walk away. Delete the fake accounts, and never do anything like this again.}}

That Anna would make these criticisms of Catherine is highly ironic. Anna chastises Catherine for playing to Chris's harmful delusions, even if she's doing it to help him - the very delusions Anna has been callously nurturing for years, believing she was ''doing it to help him''.

The overall point of her message to Catherine illustrates that her pontifical attitude towards Chris has undergone no change as it has coursed through the river of time. It's possible that Chris's [[October 2014 Facebook Posts|recent announcements]] regarding LGBT affairs have coerced her to forgive him for his former unflinching homophobia.

Stoplightguy: /* Unsorted additional thoughts */

Okay, we need to separate the facts from the trolling. The joke is hilarious, but we are a wiki. At some point, we have to provide info. I gave it shot. Still needs moar pictures. --[[User:Jump|Jump]] 05:49, 27 July 2009 (CEST)

----

This is just personal opinion and it's obviously going to be hard to entirely wind the gears backwards with this joke, but I think that a good way to reuse this joke when it inevitably runs its course would be to act like Chris-chan has died and that the mimic is merely assuming his place to fill the gap he would leave in all our hearts, and taking over the reigns on Sonichu in his honor. I can only imagine how Chris-chan would react to that. [[User:Evang7|Evang7]] 03:44, 30 July 2009 (CEST)

A bit esoteric for my taste, but a decent idea. --[[User:Jump|Jump]] 01:00, 1 August 2009 (CEST)

----

Suggestion for the lulz: Both CWC's are TRUE and HONEST, except CChanSonichuCWC is from an alternate dimension where his parents died early, and he ended up adopted by a family that taught him about social interaction, basic hygiene, and got him professional help for his autism; so he ended up becoming eccentric-but-lovable.

Or else they're both clones from the Les Enfants Autistcs program and Chris-chan just got the short end of the gene stick (will Chris start aging early? Will CChanSonichuCWC get his arm cut off and then grafted onto Clyde Cash and take over Clyde's mind?). [[User:Needlepants|Needlepants]] 23:18, 4 August 2009 (CEST)

==Liquid Chris==
When is it appropriate to label CChanSonichuCWC as "Liquid" Chris? [[User:Decoy Octillery|Decoy Octillery]] 06:20, 5 August 2009 (CEST)
*To differentiate from Solid Chris. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 06:20, 5 August 2009 (CEST)
**Cute. [[User:Decoy Octillery|Decoy Octillery]] 06:25, 5 August 2009 (CEST)
*** We need a Solidus as well then--[[User:Pikimon|Pikimon]] 01:34, 6 August 2009 (CEST)
**** I vote [http://www.commuterbarnacle.com/gonterman/ David Gonterman]. He's older than both of them, has many of the same properties, such as: he makes horrendous barely-changed-from-original-material comics and (fan)fiction (if you're a masochist, check out his [http://daveykinsfoxfire.deviantart.com DeviantART account] or google "Scarlet Foxfire"), can't draw or write to save his life, persists relentlessly despite his lack of talent, was trolled mercilessly in his prime, most likely fat and has brown hair and glasses (if that one picture floating around of him is real), and has had some 'sweetheart' troubles in the past (though not as many as CWC, but there was LilMarcieMouse, who apparently was much younger than him) .. we can always joke that "David Gonterman" is just an assumed name like how Solidus was "George Sears" ...oh, and he has the delusion that he can somehow make it commercially ''any day now''. [[User:Needlepants|Needlepants]] 21:42, 6 August 2009 (CEST)
***** It is a good match but the said person has to be connected to Solid and Liquid.Plus we need
the rest of the cast as well.

::I thought it was obvious that Solidus Chris goes by the name "George W. Bush". [[User:Fat Nigger|Fat Nigger]] 07:00, 14 August 2009 (CEST)

==Identity Theft==
Chris's hissy-fit on this issue is made all the worse by his insistence that someone wearing similar clothing and mimicking your speech impediment counts as "identity theft." I don't know much on the subject, but maybe this sign of Chris's irrational jealousy could be incorporated somehow?[[User:CDiddles|CDiddles]] 18:34, 6 August 2009 (CEST)
*Imposter Chris is just angry that the REAL AND HONEST chris is everything he wishes to be.--[[User:Pikimon|Pikimon]] 21:41, 6 August 2009 (CEST)
*Actually, does anyone know if Liquid Chris has done any kind of action whatsoever that can be considered illegal? --[[User:ThatMan|ThatMan]] 02:20, 10 August 2009 (CEST)
**Under the premise of parody, Chris can't accuse of libel. Besides Liquid's impersonation only portraits the good qualities that Chris "possesses", so it could be perjudicial to him to say "Stop that man! He is potraying me as a normal, productive member of society!". --[[User:Bystander|Bystander]] 05:40, 10 August 2009 (CEST)
::*This. Seriously, Liquid is doing Chris a favor, bringing credit to the Christian Weston Chandler name and Chris could be using this as an opportunity to tell trolls to troll the real CWC. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 10:31, 10 August 2009 (CEST)

==Separate Pages for Liquid's video==
While this is normally a site dedicated to the antics of Ian Brandon Anderson (erronously CWC), I think it might be useful have separate pages for CChanSonichuCWC's videos from the CWCivil War (the early videos we can just briefly mention or link to, that is pre-Ian). However, I'd like some feedback first before starting anything. Any thoughts? I suggest this since Liquid is to the best of my knowledge the first troll who has released a series of videos to which Chris has responded to (as opposed to just IMing Chris or making videos that, while my notable individuals, are not addressed by Chris or making videos that are popular involving Chris but Chris is not aware of).

Also, since I have a feeling Liquid might be deleting his videos as he's going to [[Redmond]], I'll have to ask the TheCWCvilleLibrary Archivist if she can archive Liquid's videos for posterity. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 19:09, 16 August 2009 (CEST)

*Liquid has just released his second video since his disappearance. If Chris reacts to it and the new video gets included, this page is going to get cluttered as new developments continue. I think the best thing to do would be to have this page be simply about CChanSonichuCWC the man, with two or three separate pages giving accounts of the various sub-sagas (Pre-Ian CWCivil War, Ian and the SingStar Challenge, and The Return of the King or whatever). Then on this page, there can be a few sections that give a brief summary of those events and then link to those main pages. [[User:Alteceastlansing|Alteceastlansing]] 05:46, 22 October 2009 (CEST)

==Idea here==

We should convince Chris-chan that CChanSonichuCWC was mistaking him for a different person who really WAS named Ian Brandon Anderson all along, and that the TRUE and REAL Ian has indeed kidnapped him. If anything I'd love to see how Chris would react to that, if at all. [[User:Evang7|Evang7]] 02:28, 17 August 2009 (CEST)

== Rewrite ==

With everything that happened in the second half of the Liquid Saga, this page could really use a rewrite.

Maybe a name change as well. "Liquid Chris" flows off the tounge much better than "CChanSonichuCWC". I mean, Vivian Gee isn't known by her YouTube screen name. --[[User:Beat|Beat]] 01:49, 18 November 2009 (CET)

Agreed. I don't know how to rename shit, but I can update the article --[[User:Jump|Jump]] 03:26, 21 November 2009 (CET)

*I'm starting to consider a renaming as well. When the article was first created (I think I created it), I had no idea what to call it as the "Liquid" differentiation wasn't coined yet or at least not yet caught on, but since the Liquid Chris name has indeed caught on and any troll will know what you're talking about. Thoughts, people? --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 00:18, 27 November 2009 (CET)

*Yeah, it would suit me fine, it seems to have become the conventional usage. "Liquid Chris" is easier to type when you're linking to it, too. [[User:Dkaien|Dkaien]] 00:56, 27 November 2009 (CET)

*I'm working on a rewrite here, the whole page is pretty garbled, especially by the pretty clear standards of CWCki. should we start using collapsible templates to sort shit out? (namely videos, but there are other places that would benefit too...) --[[User:YawningSquirtleRedux|YawningSquirtleRedux]] 05:11, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

== Showdown phone call ==

Would there be any objection to moving the showdown phone call to it's own page? Now that we've got a lot of phone calls on this wiki I was thinking about giving the showdown phone call it's own page and sprucing up the transcript. --[[User:Sack Thaddic|Sack Thaddic]] 00:41, 8 December 2009 (CET)
*Sure. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 06:22, 8 December 2009 (CET)

==This article kind of sucks==
I just noticed that this article doesn't really explain who exactly Liquid Chris is, how he trolled Chris, the SingStar Challenge, etc. in any but the most general terms. Most of the length of the article is devoted to "theories" and a chatlog. I wasn't into the trolling scene at the time, and have no knowledge of the source material, so while the motto of a wiki is "so improve it, dumbass," I think I'm unqualified for the task. --[[User:Sonichuis44|Sonichuis44]] 03:17, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

===REWRITE COMMENCING===
New subheadings are in place for the basic parts of the Liquid Saga. Please help flesh them out with details, pictures, citations, quotes, etc. The [[Kacey]] article needs to be reorganized, too, because that part of the saga is big enough to warrant a separate page. --[[User:Dude|Dude]] 06:11, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
:It's already looking much better, g'job --[[User:Sonichuis44|Sonichuis44]] 02:43, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

== Why was "Theory" moved into the fan namespace? ==

I am not angry, I just want some rationale.--[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 01:51, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

*It's long and not very encyclopedic. Only the first of the six bullets is actually legit; the rest are basically fan-fic (interesting, but pulled out of somebody's ass). Parallel Dimension? Government Experiment?

:One of the big criticisms of this article was how much filler it had vs. categorized info about Liquid and the events around him. As we flesh out the story, that first bullet will be explained elsewhere. The rest of the "Theories" might otherwise just get deleted, and I thought they were fun enough to keep around. Thoughts? --[[User:Dude|Dude]] 01:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

::Check the elbows at 4:03. His left arm is significantly shorter than his right. You can see it in other shots but it's most obvious there.

The [[Ivy Q&A]] has been on the CWCki for some time, but the [http://789chan.org/L/res/3254.html Liquid and Kacey Q&A] has not even though it was done months ago. Is there a reason it hasn't been added yet? --[[User:T K 19|T K 19]] 09:35, 28 July 2011 (PDT)

== Edit to Current Situation?==
Since Liquid Chris seems to no longer be part of the trolling, no one even pretends to pretend he's the real Chris, and Ian Brandon Anderson got edited because the meme was considered stale, shouldn't this be redone to show explicitly how Liquid Chris trolled CWC?Or is it a [[RyanClash]] thing where its just considered 'better' to have it be in-troll?

:The CWCki isn't about the truth. It's told from Chris' point of view. I think the general consensus was that the "truth" ruins the story, so for the sake of being interesting, who people "really" are is unnecessary. [[User:Freecell|Freecell]] [[User_talk:Freecell|(t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Freecell|c)]] 18:57, 4 November 2011 (PDT)

Actually, Liquid is Jon's brother Chris. I recently read some interviews/Q&As with Liquid and Kacey. I noticed that Kacey mentioned 'My Chris' a few times, [http://789chan.org/L/res/3254.html and in this one] mentioned Jon wanting to be Liquid. I was quite confused but I did a bit of research and found that contrary to popular belief, it was Chris who played Liquid. If you look at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXRrTBx_XmU&feature=plcp early videos like this one], you can see them together. They look very similar. Chris's full story is featured in the video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23PEkdDE7VM 'Changing the World']. 18:31, 6 November 2012 (PST)

So, I'm really new (to Chris and especially the cwcki), and I don't know if I'm putting this in the right spot, but is there a way we can put all of the liquid saga videos into one playlist? I think that would be beneficial if someone wanted to observe events how they happened chronologically, especially since there was a lot of back and forth between solid and liquid.

== The Final Fight fan video ==

So, IBAClydeCash made a fan video trilogy called ''The Final Fight''.

Does anyone here know the details about that video? --[[User:Makuchi|Makuchi]] ([[User talk:Makuchi|talk]]) 6:10, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

== Unsorted additional thoughts ==
I'm not certain if it's appropriate to interject more factual information beyond Chris' own knowledge, but if it's deemed appropriate to add such information:

-The "GONE" video is a sort of "parody" of a scene from The Dark Knight in which Joker kidnaps an impostor of Batman.

-Liquid is now a cancer researcher

It may be worth mentioning a lot of recent white knights and weens try to assume Liquid's persona in attempts to troll Chris (primarily on twitter) nowadays too.

This is just personal opinion and it's obviously going to be hard to entirely wind the gears backwards with this joke, but I think that a good way to reuse this joke when it inevitably runs its course would be to act like Chris-chan has died and that the mimic is merely assuming his place to fill the gap he would leave in all our hearts, and taking over the reigns on Sonichu in his honor.

Or else they're both clones from the Les Enfants Autistcs program and Chris-chan just got the short end of the gene stick (will Chris start aging early?

==Separate Pages for Liquid's video==
While this is normally a site dedicated to the antics of Ian Brandon Anderson (erronously CWC), I think it might be useful have separate pages for CChanSonichuCWC's videos from the CWCivil War (the early videos we can just briefly mention or link to, that is pre-Ian). However, I'd like some feedback first before starting anything. Any thoughts? I suggest this since Liquid is to the best of my knowledge the first troll who has released a series of videos to which Chris has responded to (as opposed to just IMing Chris or making videos that, while my notable individuals, are not addressed by Chris or making videos that are popular involving Chris but Chris is not aware of).

Also, since I have a feeling Liquid might be deleting his videos as he's going to [[Redmond]], I'll have to ask the TheCWCvilleLibrary Archivist if she can archive Liquid's videos for posterity. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 19:09, 16 August 2009 (CEST)

*Liquid has just released his second video since his disappearance. If Chris reacts to it and the new video gets included, this page is going to get cluttered as new developments continue. I think the best thing to do would be to have this page be simply about CChanSonichuCWC the man, with two or three separate pages giving accounts of the various sub-sagas (Pre-Ian CWCivil War, Ian and the SingStar Challenge, and The Return of the King or whatever). Then on this page, there can be a few sections that give a brief summary of those events and then link to those main pages. [[User:Alteceastlansing|Alteceastlansing]] 05:46, 22 October 2009 (CEST)

==Idea here==

We should convince Chris-chan that CChanSonichuCWC was mistaking him for a different person who really WAS named Ian Brandon Anderson all along, and that the TRUE and REAL Ian has indeed kidnapped him. If anything I'd love to see how Chris would react to that, if at all. [[User:Evang7|Evang7]] 02:28, 17 August 2009 (CEST)

== Rewrite ==

With everything that happened in the second half of the Liquid Saga, this page could really use a rewrite.

Maybe a name change as well. "Liquid Chris" flows off the tounge much better than "CChanSonichuCWC". I mean, Vivian Gee isn't known by her YouTube screen name. --[[User:Beat|Beat]] 01:49, 18 November 2009 (CET)

*I'm starting to consider a renaming as well. When the article was first created (I think I created it), I had no idea what to call it as the "Liquid" differentiation wasn't coined yet or at least not yet caught on, but since the Liquid Chris name has indeed caught on and any troll will know what you're talking about. Thoughts, people? --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 00:18, 27 November 2009 (CET)

Most of the length of the article is devoted to "theories" and a chatlog.

==Identity Theft==
Chris's hissy-fit on this issue is made all the worse by his insistence that someone wearing similar clothing and mimicking your speech impediment counts as "identity theft." I don't know much on the subject, but maybe this sign of Chris's irrational jealousy could be incorporated somehow?[[User:CDiddles|CDiddles]] 18:34, 6 August 2009 (CEST)

**Under the premise of parody, Chris can't accuse of libel. Besides Liquid's impersonation only portraits the good qualities that Chris "possesses", so it could be perjudicial to him to say "Stop that man! He is potraying me as a normal, productive member of society!". --[[User:Bystander|Bystander]] 05:40, 10 August 2009 (CEST)
::*This. Seriously, Liquid is doing Chris a favor, bringing credit to the Christian Weston Chandler name and Chris could be using this as an opportunity to tell trolls to troll the real CWC. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 10:31, 10 August 2009 (CEST)

==Separate Pages for Liquid's video==
While this is normally a site dedicated to the antics of Ian Brandon Anderson (erronously CWC), I think it might be useful have separate pages for CChanSonichuCWC's videos from the CWCivil War (the early videos we can just briefly mention or link to, that is pre-Ian). However, I'd like some feedback first before starting anything. Any thoughts? I suggest this since Liquid is to the best of my knowledge the first troll who has released a series of videos to which Chris has responded to (as opposed to just IMing Chris or making videos that, while my notable individuals, are not addressed by Chris or making videos that are popular involving Chris but Chris is not aware of).

Also, since I have a feeling Liquid might be deleting his videos as he's going to [[Redmond]], I'll have to ask the TheCWCvilleLibrary Archivist if she can archive Liquid's videos for posterity. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 19:09, 16 August 2009 (CEST)

*Liquid has just released his second video since his disappearance. If Chris reacts to it and the new video gets included, this page is going to get cluttered as new developments continue. I think the best thing to do would be to have this page be simply about CChanSonichuCWC the man, with two or three separate pages giving accounts of the various sub-sagas (Pre-Ian CWCivil War, Ian and the SingStar Challenge, and The Return of the King or whatever). Then on this page, there can be a few sections that give a brief summary of those events and then link to those main pages. [[User:Alteceastlansing|Alteceastlansing]] 05:46, 22 October 2009 (CEST)

==Idea here==

We should convince Chris-chan that CChanSonichuCWC was mistaking him for a different person who really WAS named Ian Brandon Anderson all along, and that the TRUE and REAL Ian has indeed kidnapped him. If anything I'd love to see how Chris would react to that, if at all. [[User:Evang7|Evang7]] 02:28, 17 August 2009 (CEST)

== Rewrite ==

With everything that happened in the second half of the Liquid Saga, this page could really use a rewrite.

Maybe a name change as well. "Liquid Chris" flows off the tounge much better than "CChanSonichuCWC". I mean, Vivian Gee isn't known by her YouTube screen name. --[[User:Beat|Beat]] 01:49, 18 November 2009 (CET)

Agreed. I don't know how to rename shit, but I can update the article --[[User:Jump|Jump]] 03:26, 21 November 2009 (CET)

*I'm starting to consider a renaming as well. When the article was first created (I think I created it), I had no idea what to call it as the "Liquid" differentiation wasn't coined yet or at least not yet caught on, but since the Liquid Chris name has indeed caught on and any troll will know what you're talking about. Thoughts, people? --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 00:18, 27 November 2009 (CET)

*Yeah, it would suit me fine, it seems to have become the conventional usage. "Liquid Chris" is easier to type when you're linking to it, too. [[User:Dkaien|Dkaien]] 00:56, 27 November 2009 (CET)

*I'm working on a rewrite here, the whole page is pretty garbled, especially by the pretty clear standards of CWCki. should we start using collapsible templates to sort shit out?

*Sure. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 06:22, 8 December 2009 (CET)

==This article kind of sucks==
I just noticed that this article doesn't really explain who exactly Liquid Chris is, how he trolled Chris, the SingStar Challenge, etc. in any but the most general terms. Most of the length of the article is devoted to "theories" and a chatlog. I wasn't into the trolling scene at the time, and have no knowledge of the source material, so while the motto of a wiki is "so improve it, dumbass," I think I'm unqualified for the task. --[[User:Sonichuis44|Sonichuis44]] 03:17, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

===REWRITE COMMENCING===
New subheadings are in place for the basic parts of the Liquid Saga. Please help flesh them out with details, pictures, citations, quotes, etc. The [[Kacey]] article needs to be reorganized, too, because that part of the saga is big enough to warrant a separate page. --[[User:Dude|Dude]] 06:11, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

The [[Ivy Q&A]] has been on the CWCki for some time, but the [http://789chan.org/L/res/3254.html Liquid and Kacey Q&A] has not even though it was done months ago. Is there a reason it hasn't been added yet? --[[User:T K 19|T K 19]] 09:35, 28 July 2011 (PDT)

== Edit to Current Situation?==
Since Liquid Chris seems to no longer be part of the trolling, no one even pretends to pretend he's the real Chris, and Ian Brandon Anderson got edited because the meme was considered stale, shouldn't this be redone to show explicitly how Liquid Chris trolled CWC?Or is it a [[RyanClash]] thing where its just considered 'better' to have it be in-troll?

:The CWCki isn't about the truth. It's told from Chris' point of view.

[[User:Freecell|Freecell]] [[User_talk:Freecell|(t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Freecell|c)]] 18:57, 4 November 2011 (PDT)

Actually, Liquid is Jon's brother Chris. I recently read some interviews/Q&As with Liquid and Kacey. I noticed that Kacey mentioned 'My Chris' a few times, [http://789chan.org/L/res/3254.html and in this one] mentioned Jon wanting to be Liquid. I was quite confused but I did a bit of research and found that contrary to popular belief, it was Chris who played Liquid. If you look at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXRrTBx_XmU&feature=plcp early videos like this one], you can see them together. They look very similar. Chris's full story is featured in the video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23PEkdDE7VM 'Changing the World']. 18:31, 6 November 2012 (PST)

== Saga playlist? ==

So, I'm really new (to Chris and especially the cwcki), and I don't know if I'm putting this in the right spot, but is there a way we can put all of the liquid saga videos into one playlist? I think that would be beneficial if someone wanted to observe events how they happened chronologically, especially since there was a lot of back and forth between solid and liquid. It's possible to watch them chronologically, but as of right now it takes a lot of extra effort figuring out what video was next. --[[User:Scootpooter|Scootpooter]] ([[User talk:Scootpooter|talk]]) 17:59, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

== The Final Fight fan video ==

So, IBAClydeCash made a fan video trilogy called ''The Final Fight''. The first video was apparently removed because Youtube though it was promoting bullying or harassment, and it appears no one has archived it (all the existing IBAClydeCash playlists lack that video) nor downloaded it to reupload. Does anyone here know the details about that video? --[[User:Makuchi|Makuchi]] ([[User talk:Makuchi|talk]]) 6:10, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

I found an old "Vidmoon" account with a couple videos by IBAClydeCash which do not appear on his YouTube account.

== Unsorted additional thoughts ==
I'm not certain if it's appropriate to interject more factual information beyond Chris' own knowledge, but if it's deemed appropriate to add such information:
-The "GONE" video is a sort of "parody" of a scene from The Dark Knight in which Joker kidnaps an impostor of Batman.
-Liquid is now a cancer researcher
It may be worth mentioning a lot of recent white knights and weens try to assume Liquid's persona in attempts to troll Chris (primarily on twitter) nowadays too.

Chris in the media

2019-02-15T03:58:00Z

Stoplightguy: /* OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo */

[[Image:The truth about cwc.jpg|thumb|right|Just you wait.]]
{{see also|Sonic the Hedgehog#References to Chris}}

[[Chris]], being an attention whore of sorts, has frequently managed to find himself in the '''media''' spotlight. Whether it be [[Chris and television|television]], newspapers, magazines or, of course, [[Chris and the Internet|the Internet]], if Chris can find some way to get his 15 minutes of fame, he'll do it.

Chris's legendary status as the first mainstream lolcow also catches the attention of many Internet commentator and entertainers, who would often include him and his creations from as a tongue-in-cheek cameo to a major multi-part documentary.

==Traditional media==
===''Richmond Times-Dispatch''===
{{main|IT TOOK A TALKING BEAR TO GIVE THE NAME A YOUNG BOY LOVES}}

In 1993, the ''[[Wikipedia:Richmond Times-Dispatch|Richmond Times-Dispatch]]'' newspaper ran an article detailing how Chris changed his name from "Christopher" to "Christian". This was Chris's first known appearance in media.

===Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes===
{{main|Sonic the Hedgehog Watch & Win Sweepstakes}}

Chris's second appearance in the media was a news report in [[1994]] chronicling Chris's first victory, winning a contest celebrating one of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoons.

===Chris Chan in the PokéNews===
{{main|Chris Chan in the PokéNews}}

In [[1999]], Chris made his third appearance in a news report on the growing success of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. He was 17 years old at the time, and he was playing [[Pokémon]] cards with [[Pedofork|kids as young as 8]].

===''Nintendo Power'' Magazine===
{{main|Nintendo Power Magazine}}

Twice, Chris has used the magazine ''Nintendo Power'' to get himself attention. First was a letter Chris wrote telling Nintendo how he used a [[Sprung|video game]] to cure his [[Noviophobia|fear of talking to girls]]. The second time detailed Chris's ''Animal Crossing'' video, though there he was known as [[Sonichu]], not Chris.

===[[Shoujo Beat]]===
{{main|Shoujo Beat}}

Chris sent a letter to an [[anime]]-themed magazine that got published in its November [[2005]] issue. In it, he complains about [[JERKS]] taking away all the pretty [[boyfriend-free girl]]s and leaving him to be a [[Virgin With Rage|lonesome virgin]]. A response was published in the March [[2006]] issue, in which the writer instructs Chris on the error of his ways.

===''Daily Progress''===

====2007====
[[Image:CWCinDailyProgressJuly142007.jpg|thumb|Admit it, if you've never heard of Chris before, would you think that they were actually referring to a 25-year-old man here?]]

On 14 [[July 2007]], Chris and Barb were mentioned in their local newspaper, the ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''.<ref>http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/rummage-sale-goes-all-year/article_8364fd1b-b1cf-5902-91f9-d05a19a0453d.html</ref>

{{quotebox|The line began forming outside the door around 2 p.m., three hours before the SPCA's new rummage shop in Charlottesville opened for a special sneak preview Friday.

By 4:45, nearly 50 people were waiting in line, while about 30 volunteers inside put the finishing touches in place.

"I've got my eye on the riding mower right there," said Barry Ross as he stood at the head of the line, looking through the window at a red tractor.

And right behind Ross, Christian and Barbara Chandler were waiting to shop. Christian wanted toys and video games, while his mother wanted to look for fabric.}}

====2017====

===Toucher and Rich===
{{main|Toucher and Rich Segment}}

On 12 [[May 2009]] Chris's antics became so famous that it sparked the interest of a radio podcast in [[Wikipedia:Boston|Boston]]. The whole media furor was sparked by the "[[I Got A Fish]]" video. However, most of the show covered Chris's videos addressed to [[Ivy]].<ref>[http://www.wbcn.com/topic/play_window.php?audioType=Episode&audioId=3705145]</ref>

===Kevin and Bean===
{{main|The Kevin and Bean Show Segment}}

One of Chris's [[Captain's Log]]s is dissected by the hosts [[Wikipedia:Kevin and Bean|Kevin and Bean]]. Notably, the [[Captain's Log, Stardate April 28th, 2009|video in question]] required ''a full two minutes'' dedicated to disclaimers, as well as censoring of [[Semen#Recycling|certain]] [[Honest content|unairable]] [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|acts]] .

===''Web Soup''===
{{main|For G4s Web Soup}}

Once again, Chris's "[[I Got A Fish]]" video was briefly featured, this time on [[Wikipedia:G4 (TV channel)|G4]]'s ''[[Wikipedia:Web Soup|Web Soup]]'' on 2 [[July 2009]]. While the segment lasted less than 30 seconds, Chris initially felt honored and used the opportunity to try to score some [[china]], only to belatedly realize after he uploaded an entire video about it that shows like ''Web Soup'' are devoted to mocking people like him.

===Save McIntire Park===
{{main|McIntire Park}}

In [[July 2009]], Chris briefly appears in the background of a news segment about saving McIntire Park, [[Charlottesville, VA|Charlottesville]]. Later, Chris receives recognition at a council meeting for drawing a large sign.

===''Slylock Fox''===
[[File:SonichuSlylockFox25Sep2011.JPG|thumb|115px|If you didn't know who Chris was, would you think anything of this?]]

On 25 September 2011, ''[[Wikipedia:Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids|Slylock Fox & Comics for Kids]]'', a comic strip about comic strips published by King Features Syndicate, featured a black-and-white image<ref>[http://content.comicskingdom.net/Slylock/Slylock.20110925.gif]</ref> of [[Sonichu]] in the "Your Drawing" panel. The illustration, which ran in thousands of papers nationwide, was accompanied by text, which read: "Today's terrific artist is Christian Weston Chandler, Age 9." The strip's author, Bob Weber Jr., admitted on the Comics Curmudgeon blog<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130508181808/http://joshreads.com/?p=10951]</ref> that he fully believed that the "artist" was 9 (rather than 29) when he selected the drawing out of the dozens that are submitted to the strip every week.

===Opie & Anthony===
{{main|Opie and Anthony}}

On 27 [[May 2009]], ''[[Wikipedia:Opie and Anthony|The Opie & Anthony Show]]'' on [[Wikipedia:Sirius XM Radio|Sirius XM Radio]], which was broadcast to 18.5 million units, [[Opie and Anthony|did a commentary segment]] on Chris's video response to drinking his own [[cum]] and shitting his adult diapers. It is unknown whether he's realized that his [[autistic]] antics have technically been broadcast to low earth orbit.

===''Houston Press''===
On 12 [[July 2012]], the ''[[Wikipedia:Houston Press|Houston Press]]'' published an article on Rex Nabours III of defunct folk punk band Guwange and his attempts to raise money for sick children. Nabours was quoted in the article saying "I did a Christian Weston Chandler (the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' guy) [[Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys|covers album]] earlier this year with the intent of giving any money I made off of it to Autism-related charities because the dude is basically [[Song for Jackie.MOV|blackface]] for autism".<ref>http://blogs.houstonpress.com/artattack/2012/07/rex_nabours_extra_life.php</ref>

===''Failosophy'' ===
{{Deletedvideo}}
[[File:TG20.jpg|thumb|Featured pic]]

MTV's show ''[[Wikipedia:Failosophy|Failosophy]]'' mocked Internet idiots like Chris. While the show lasted a mere 3 months due to negative reception, one of his [[Tomgirl]] pics memorably and unsurprisingly showed up in the 4th episode of the show, viewed by almost a million people. Jump to 0:26 for his appearance.

Chris, unusually, gave a response via [[Facebook]].

{{quotebox| I had no ill will against MTV.

===''New York'' Magazine===
On 19 [[July 2016]], [[Wikipedia:New York (magazine)|''New York'' magazine]] featured an article on its website, [http://nymag.com/selectall/2016/07/kiwi-farms-the-webs-biggest-community-of-stalkers.html "Kiwi Farms, the Web's Biggest Community of Stalkers"]. The article was meant as an attack on [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]], inaccurately describing it as a vague group across [[4chan|mult]][[/cwc/|iple]] [[Encyclopedia Dramatica|web]][[Twitter|sites]] instead a single forum community. However, in describing the site's origins and operations, it largely focuses on Chris himself and the "torment" he faced from [[trolls]] during his internet heyday. There is also a mention of [[A-Log]] and his fallout with other Christorians.

The article is notably one of the few pieces of [[White knight|positive press]] Chris has received since his rise to internet fame. In addition to attacking his trolls, the author, Margaret Pless, describes him in sympathetic terms such as "[[Chris and art|artist]], [[Video games|gamer]], and [[Sonichu (comic)|creative type]]" and fails to mention [[Chris and anger|his]] [[ShecameforCWC.JPG|horrific]] [[Chris and race|opinions]], [[Death threats|statements]], [[28 October 2011|or]] [[26 December 2014|actions]]. Pless is also under the impression that Chris is legitimately [[Tomgirl|transgender]], and accordingly refers to him as "Christine" and with female pronouns.

===''Sonic Boom''===
[[File:Mark tapir.jpeg|thumb|250px|Chris finally meets his hero.]]
On 10 [[December 2016]], an episode of ''[[Sonic Boom Protests|Sonic Boom]]'' called "The Biggest Fan" premiered on Cartoon Network. The episode features a character named Mark the Tapir that parodies the ''Sonic'' fanbase. Mark is depicted in the episode as a creepy, obsessive stalker who kidnaps Sonic and forces him to act out fanfiction that he wrote. While the character is likely intended as a general parody, he appears to have been heavily inspired by Chris in particular. He closely resembles pre-tomgirl Chris, and one scene seems to reference the "blue arms" debacle. Mark even orders an [[April 16 Fetish Vids|orange soda]] during one scene, though this is probably an unintentional reference.

Chris [[December 2016 Facebook posts#Sonic Boom parody|acknowledged]] the parody on December 13, 2016. He stated that he saw no resemblance between himself and the Mark character, and that he is "[[Chris and reality|not mental or crazy like that at all]]."

The episode's writers, Doug Liebilch and Bill Freiberger, responded to questions on Twitter about the episode. Liebilch said that [https://twitter.com/DougLieblich/status/808080337859293184 "He's not based on anyone specific. Just an obsessive fan character."] Freiberger also denied that Mark was based on Chris, and unlike Liebilch, he knows who Chris is, saying [https://twitter.com/BillFreiberger/status/809087510156410880 "Mark is 100% NOT based on CWC. He is a general fan type. We've done many blue arm jokes in the series. Not a clue."]

Sonichu makes a cameo in dodie's music video for "Monster", around the 47 second mark. He appears on a poster as one of the many monsters looking for love. The text on the poster (though partially covered by others) appears to say that he is "Looking for a [[Boyfriend-free girl|boyfriend-free monster]]", indicating some familiarity with Chris's antics.

Three minutes into the video, Chris is brought up as an example of the horrors of the [[Sonic]] fandom, particularly showcasing [[Warning - Naughty Women ;)]]. Less than a minute later, Sonic is jokingly referred to as Sonichu.

===Harry Partridge===
[[Image:HappyHarryRosechu.jpg|thumb|125px|"Actually, it is excellent; I would not change a thing about it." -Chris, [[Mailbag 9]]]]
Animator [[Wikipedia:Harry Partridge|Harry Partridge]] (best known for his [[parody|slanderous mockery]] [[Wikipedia:Saturday Morning Watchmen|Saturday Morning ''Watchmen'']]) has made several references to Chris and Sonichu, the first of which is a drawing of [[Rosechu]] uploaded to Newgrounds.<ref>[http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/happyharry/rosechu ]</ref> An animated version of Chris appears briefly in the animated cartoon short "Nicolas Cage Wants Cake", a musical remix of a scene from ''[[Family Guy|The Family Man]]''.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PJddmfesaA]</ref> In the animated short "Skyrim", [[Son-Chu]]'s "SONICHU" license plate can be seen in the background during the first scene.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9eGtyqz4gY]</ref> In the Followup, "Song of Skyrim", Chris makes a brief cameo in the crowd <ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsqiSknjHK8]</ref>

Harry himself has commented on [[TheCWCvilleLibrary]]'s upload of the [[Christian and the Hedgehog Boys]] song "[[I'll Never Leave You, Ivy]]", jokingly stating "I want this played at my funeral."

When interviewing Harry Partridge on Animation Aficionados, the hosts asked Harry about Chris's cameos in some of his videos (from 0:19:43). The discussion the hosts have with Harry about Chris is quite lengthy, during which Mr. Partridge admits that he is "obsessed with him":<ref>[http://animationaficionados.com/2011/08/23/episode-35-harry-partridge/]</ref>

{{Quote|1=I really am obsessed with him... I check [[CWCki|''Sonichu.com'']], the wiki about Chris-chan and his weird life, if not daily, every couple of hours... there must be more written about Chris-chan than George Washington. |2=Harry Partridge|3=}}

During an episode of SleepingCabin, it was revealed that Harry actually contacted Chris to ask him if he wanted to work on a game together, in witch Chris denied saying that Harry animation style wasn't that good at all, despite many considering Harry to be one of the best animators online. The reason why he wanted to work on a game with Chris is unknown to this day, whether it be for trolling or cause he actually wanted to.

===''Atop the Fourth Wall''===
Comic book reviewer Lewis [[Sonichu & Rosechu… The Genesis of the Lovehogs|Lovhaug]] (a.k.a. "Linkara") goes on a brief tirade in his 99th video "Top 15 Things I Will Never Review" about ''Sonichu'' on the subject of webcomics at the 24-minute mark.<ref>[http://atopfourthwall.blogspot.com/2010/09/top-15-comics-ill-never-review.html]</ref>

While he'd previously made the point that he wouldn't review webcomics in general, Linkara didn't want to review ''Sonichu'' in particular because he didn't want to acknowledge it further. He describes Chris as a "[[The Tale of the Crazy Pacer|creepy stalker]]". Towards the end of the episode, a character tries to pressure Linkara into reviewing ''Sonichu'' before Linkara settles on reviewing a ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' comic for his 100th episode. At the end of the video, he uses "Weird Al" Yankovic's "Do I Creep You Out?" as the credits music, a possible jab at Chris.

===Reddit===
{{main|Reddit}}
There is an entire subreddit on the popular website Reddit entitled ""r/chrischansonichu", which is predictably all about Chris and his shenanigans. However, it's marked as NSFW, making it difficult to find.

On 23 [[September 2014]], the subreddit r/shittykickstarters linked to Chris's [[Kickstarter]] project for getting Legos.

===SleepyCabin===
Sleepycabin is a podcast hosted by many famous internet animators including OneyNG, Psychicpebbles, Stamper, and Spazkid.
On 14 December 2014, Spazkid, creator of ''[[Sonichu the Animated Series|Sonichu the Animated Series]]'' described his fascination with Chris, how he began trolling in 2007, and why he ultimately regrets doing it, even though he doesn't hesitate in calling him a retard and being aware that Chris is still a despicable human being.

LET IT DIE.” It’s like depressing—it’s not the golden age—it’s the depressing age.| Spazkid, rebuking the weens.}}

In another podcast they made, they all got into a heated argument when Spazkid said that he believed that Chris Chan at least ''tries'' to make decent content with a huge majority of the podcast members completely disagreeing with him.

They occasionally reference him sometimes in other episodes.

Interestingly, the SleepyCabin podcast members reveal that [[Harry Partridge]] once contacted Chris about developing a game with him. Apparently, Chris turned Harry down because he thought he wasn’t a talented enough animator. Jump to 1:43:25 in the link.

The article seemed sympathetic to Chris, though Cecilia acknowledged in a comment that many of his views are offensive and that she does not endorse them, but also claimed that "[Chris's] personal beliefs are not entirely relevant to my article’s main themes".

===Sachumo===
{{main|Documentary}}

Sachumo is a YouTuber who gained moderate popularity after making a [[documentary]] on Chris's life. The video has since garnered over a million views. On 22 September 2017, Chris finally viewed the documentary, writing about its traumatic effects in a [[Facebook]] post.

On 21 October 2017, Sachumo did a live stream in which he chatted with Chris.

===Fredrik Knudsen===
YouTuber Fredrik Knudsen, known for his ''Down the Rabbit Hole'' videos, made a video talking about Chris. He also posted a live stream on ''Sonichu'' the following year.

{{main|BraveryJerk Interviews}}

On two separate occasions in 2016, BraveryJerk, a group of [[autism|exceptional individuals]] who run a subreddit affiliated with the popular /r/circlejerk, interviewed Chris, producing three videos on two YouTube channels.

===Mister Metokur===
On June 30, 2017, a popular YouTuber, Mister Metokur, compared an atrocious webcomic, the Light Bringer, made by another lolcow, Linkara, to Sonichu in that they are both self-insert mary sue comics filled with one-dimensional characters in his video ''TGWTG Episode 3: Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm''. He also mentioned that the only difference between Chris and Linkara is that Chris has autism and Linkara "hasn't been diagnosed".

===BIRDMAN===

===OneyPlays===
OneyPlays is a gaming channel on YouTube run by popular animator Chris O'Neil, better known as "Oney" or "OneyNG." He and his friends Ding Dong and Julian occasionally reference Chris in their banter. An example of this is how, during their playthrough of ''Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back'', they come up with a humorous scenario where Chris replaces the title character as the main protagonist of ''[[Harry Potter]]''. They have further mentioned that their favorite video of Chris is [[THAT IS MY HOUSE]]. Among the three, Julian seems to be, at the very least, the most respectful toward Chris Chan, this is seen when he became somewhat upset when Chris O'Neil called Chris Chan a retard in the F Zero play through and also, in the Sonic Adventure one, when Ding Dong joked about Chris Chan committing suicide by electrocuting himself with an Xbox, though despite all this, he does always end up laughing.

===Bad Creepypasta===
Bad Creepypasta is a YouTube show in which, as its name implies, sub-par creepypasta stories are read and made fun of. In the episode "OG Nina the Killer," the hosts imagine a character in the story named Chris to be Chris-chan, and make many references to Sonichu and CWCVille throughout.

===Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History===
GenoSamuel is a YouTuber who received a large amount of attention starting in February 2018 for his "Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History" series. These videos are essentially a documentary about Chris's life, similar to [[Documentary|Sachumo's]]. However, while Sachumo's video is an abridged summary of Chris's life for newcomers, Geno's videos go into greater detail, each video being around 30 to 40 minutes long. The series is in chronological order, taking several videos just to cover Chris's life before his internet fame, and Geno has said that he plans to step through the [[Saga|densely packed events]] of 2009-10 in increments of a few months. The series is still ongoing, and Geno predicts that it will be around 20 episodes long by the time he reaches the present day. He also mentions that when the series will be done, he will continue them if in case another event happens in Chris's life.

{{infobox/video
|name= Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History - Part 1
|video= {{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBvJa1xyE-4}}
}}

Sadly, on June 13 of that year, GenoSamuel2 has received three consecutive community guideline strikes and as a result, has been terminated. The reason for the termination was because his content was considered a form of harassment and bullying which is completely untrue. GenoSamuel confirmed that he did send an appeal form but Youtube refused to give his channel back, thus meaning that his channel is gone forever. Despite this, his videos can be viewed here: https://www.bitchute.com/video/ejDXeL8d6WR1/. A [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO9MEgyxHmXmJXDYCj7W4cA backup channel] was also made a day after the channel was taken down.

It is speculated that many white knights flagged the videos which eventually got Youtube attention and cause the channel to be taken down, some have even asked Chris Chan if he had anything to do with it, in which he completely denied and hope that Geno gets his channel back.

A week later GenoSamuel revealed on his other Youtube channel that he was going to take a long break from the videos, stating that he was getting tired of always having to have Chris in his mind when making the documentary. He said that he will continue working on them sometime near the end of the year.
On January 3, he announced on his twitter in the form of a teaser poster that the series will be coming back on February 24, 2019, which happens to be on Chris birthday.

===3GI===
{{main|Shrek Retold}}
On 15 November 2018, a Youtuber by the name of 3GI released a trailer for ''Shrek Retold'', a feature-length collaboration of the first Shrek movie. It is to feature over 200 contributors, each with their own styles. One of them is none other than Chris himself. The collab is set to be released on 29 November 2018, assuming Chris can [[Sonichu 10|finish]] [[Sonichu 11|on]] [[Sonichu 12-9|time]]. Chris's work is in the 0:55 mark.

==Death threats against Trump==
On 9 [[November 2016]], Chris made multiple death threats against President-elect [[Pmurt|Donald Trump]].

Later that day, one of his Twitter posts was featured in an [http://www.infowars.com/hillary-supporters-burn-american-flag-riot-threaten-to-kill-trump-after-losing-election/ article] by Alex Jones's Infowars website. The article was linked to on the [http://archive.is/kyUJh Drudge Report]. [[wikipedia:David Duke|David Duke]], former member of Louisiana's State Representatives and former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, [https://twitter.com/DrDavidDuke/status/796474021625860098 tweeted] the article. '''Chris himself [[2009-2016 tweets#10 November 2016.1|tweeted]] the article on 10 November.'''

Daniel "Keemstar" Keem, host of the drama YouTube account, Drama Alert, [https://mobile.twitter.com/KEEMSTAR/status/796281178030567424 tweeted] at Chris and alerted the Secret Service.

Sky Williams, a YouTube gamer with nearly a million subscribers, [https://twitter.com/SkyWilliams/status/796282670959366144 retweeted] Chris's post and added the comment, "k so this shit isn't okay - can we report this?" OneyNG, another YouTube gamer, also [https://twitter.com/OneyNG/status/796273797984718852 retweeted], saying "Chris Chan always knows what to say." Hundreds of retweets were made by their followers.

Conservative website HillaryDaily.com featured the tweet in an [http://hillarydaily.com/brandon/2016/11/10/radical-left-now-threatening-to-assassinate-donald-trump/ article] on 10 November.

==Video Games==
===McPixel===
On 25 [[June 2012]], the indie game ''McPixel'' featured a homage to [[Chris humps his PS3|Chris' sexcapades with inanimate objects]] by having a special ending sequence depicting the titular character dry-humping a PS3 in the same stance Chris was.

===Goat Simulator===
[[File:Goat.jpg|thumb|300px|The goat unfortunately named Chris-Chan.]]
The "Goat MMO Simulator" DLC pack adds a simulated MMO mode that parodies games such as World of Warcraft. AI-controlled goats simulate the presence of other players, and their names are drawn randomly from a list of pre-generated names. 'Chris-chan' is one of the names on this list.

===OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo===
An iOS/Android beat-em-up based on a Cartoon Network pilot, ''OK K.O.!'' introduces certain characters with a short biography screen (including a quote). The one for Carol (the player character's mother) has her saying "Go out and defend our Plaza--to the extreme!" (clearly echoing the cover to [[Sonichu 0]]).<ref>http://imgur.com/wvpZ8uW</ref>
This same phrase is also present in the pilot episode of the cartoon series, appearing at around five and a half minutes in.

Worth noting is that ''OK K.O.!'' is intended for general audiences.

===Heartbeat===

In the upcoming RPG Heartbeat, a minor NPC character whose appearance and mannerisms are obviously based on Chris can be interacted with in one of the game's locations.

{{quotebox|Totes Kawaii! She and I think so ever so much! ❤️💙💜}}

{{quotebox|She and I say it’s Awesome!}}

Of note is that the tweets are geotagged from Hollymead, Virginia.

==Mad at Facebook friends==
1 May

Chris shared a memory of a post from 2017 about [[The Classic]] shirt and commented:

{{quotebox|One year ago, I fixed and patched up the old shirt; the next, it’s holey bad in the armpits again. LOL}}

Sydnee Wagner joked:

{{quoteboxorange|This is like a montage out of nightmare on elm street. Freddy gets his sweater back.}}

Chris was displeased:

{{quotebox|I am Not a Monster.}}

Sydnee replied:

{{quoteboxorange|Are you sure? You ran someone over.}}

Mellanie Chafe chimed in:

{{quoteboxred|She ran someone over!?}}

Sydnee Wagner linked to this website's article:

{{quoteboxorange|https://sonichu.com/cwcki/28_October_2011}}

Chris shot back:

{{quotebox|You are now Blocked. Before continuing to insult me whenever possible you should consider [[Anytime Fitness|Going to the Gym]] Yourself, as I feel YOU could stand to Lose Some Weight!}}

The drama continued [[April 2018 social media posts#I know people are worried|on another Facebook post]], where Chris became annoyed at someone for using his pre-transition name:

On Facebook's comment section:

Jackie Mei:

{{quoteboxyellow| Stay strong Chris!}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|Christine*}}

Jackie Mei:

{{quoteboxyellow|Sorry}}

Mellanie Chafe:

{{quoteboxred|my moms name is Christine. Sometimes people call her Chris.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|I'm neutral about people calling me "Chris" or "Christine" but I would like if you Good People would respect my chosen name.}}

Mellanie Chafe:

{{quoteboxred|I think people respect it.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|You should see my inbox. There is Much Hate coming my way from all corners of the internet.}}

Mellanie Chafe:

{{quoteboxred|well, that sucks, but I guess it comes with being out and about on the internet.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|AND you, Ms. Mellanie - I see you laughing at me for Running Somebody Over. That is not what a FRIEND does! BLOCKED! You covertly insult me, but You and Your Husband could use some Gym Time as well!}}

==Whining about Patreon backers reducing pledges==
1 May

{{quotebox|feeling disappointed.

I'm feeling a mite upset right now. I just checked my Patreon (All Pledges were processed), it WAS at over $900 total about last Sunday, as said on my Patreon Page; but today, I ended up with $450! UGH!!!}}

''Note: At this point, Chris had gone for 95 days without uploading new pages for the Sonichu comic.''

==[[Kenneth Englehardt]] BTFO==
2 May

Englehardt returned to Chris's Facebook and commented on three posts, only for Chris to respond rudely, prompting Englehardt to walk away from him there. However, he couldn't resist staying away and quickly ran to Chris on Twitter.

He first commented on the previous post about Patreon:

{{quoteboxyellow|Did you call customer support to see what was going on?}}

Chris replied:

{{quotebox|I'm getting back into my Creative Mind after several months of being off my feet. More on THAT situation another time!}}

Englehardt then commented on Chris offering his license plate for sale on [[eBay]]:

{{quoteboxyellow|Hold on a minute, are you sure you have that cleared with the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles?}}

Chris put Englehardt in his place:

{{quotebox|Ken, Please Stop. Or I will unfriend you, Again.}}

Englehardt grovelled:

{{quoteboxyellow|My apologies.}}

Later, on 3 May, Englehardt replied to another commentator on the Patreon update:

Taimur Rahman said:

{{quoteboxgreen| i think its patreon's new donation system, i believe they take 50% of your income to sustain their site. lets boycott patreon.}}

Englehardt replied:

{{quoteboxyellow| 50% ? That's outrageous.}}

Chris shot back:

{{quotebox|You're outrageous, Ken. Stop Commenting. This is your Last Warning. You are welcome to pledge to my Patreon, should you choose.}}

Kengle had enough:

{{quoteboxyellow|Friendships don't work this way Christine. Goodbye.}}

Hours later, on 4 May, Englehardt issued a tweet, tagged to no one at all:

{{quoteboxyellow|I've unfriended you but you are still welcome to follow and comment on my public Facebook page.}}

He then commented on one of Chris's posts:

{{quoteboxyellow|That is true. Your fans are hungry. Well-fed fans are generous fans.}}

...prompting Chris to react with anger:

{{quotebox|What is Your Problem?! Even though this is May the 4th - I repeat - YOU ARE NOT MY FATHER!}}

Although by 5 May, tensions had settled back down:

{{quoteboxyellow|Have you considered a project manager? They can help with work layout, publicity, the bottom line and so forth.}}

{{quotebox|If I had even remotely Knew of such a Manager YEARS ago, I seriously would have done that sooner. Eeyup.}}

==Begging for sales money to ship books==
4 May

{{quotebox|I did not mean to show lack of appreciation to those who did give me the money. I was upset, because my plans including catching up (everyone of the past three months gets a copy of @[[Bryanfrogboy|BryanShickley]] ‘s book as well); all of the books have been ordered, and I could not have done it without the sale of my license plate on [[eBay]]. I still need more money for shipping them out in about a week or two, please. So, please buy more from my eBay to help.}}

Bryan Shickley:

{{quoteboxgreen|Please don't drag me into this. I've drawn your OCs more than you at this point and I don't make a percent of a percent of what you make for doing nothing.}}

==How to be delusional==
4 May

@handofgalochio:
{{quoteboxgreen|Chris Chandler always get me wondering: If my creations, the OCs I created over the years, were able to talk to me what would they say? Would they like me? What happens when I'm not thinking about them.

Then, I remember that little thing called reality.}}

{{quotebox|They ARE REAL! And you CAN talk with them in Psychic mind-link. About Every Creator and Artist with characters, and even imaginary friends, all possess this ability to communicate with them in the other worlds and dimensions. You Can Too, @handofgalochio ! Open your mind and ❤️

Anything Is Possible! Go Beyond This World and Reality!}}

==Bryan walks away==
5 May

Following tweets by [[Bryanfrogboy]]...

{{quoteboxyellow|Chris I said this once and if I'm honest it needs to be said again. PLEASE see a doctor about this. Healthy functional humans don't see cartoons everywhere. I know this is hard for you but I just want to see you be a healthy breadwinning adult. }}
{{quoteboxyellow|Just frustrated with Chris berating her fans on patreon for not paying her when she has given her fans next to nothing.

Chris gets all the money for the book<ref>Chris had a deal with Bryan where he would ship out copies of Bryan's book as pledge rewards.</ref> and that’s fine. I don’t want my name on it anymore.

I wouldn’t care so much. My goal this year was to break into comics with real people. 1 Page a day minimum. I just wish Chris could make... 20-30 pages in a year would be something. It’s just sad. I feel weird making more Chris content than she has this year. }}

...and his girlfriend...

{{quoteboxorange|yo crispy western Chandler , I've been quite about this, i want you to not sexualize my boyfriend please.}}

Chris:
{{quotebox|@BryanShickley @weta_ink Y'all think I don't read this? My heart is Broken! I was being playful and flirty! You should check out the show "Polyamory" on Showtime. It's on Amazon Prime, too! I hope I didn't make you feel jealousy!}}

==Last six months, imminent financial ruin==
5 May

This was made in a series of four tweets.

{{quotebox|1. Yesterday, I noticed y'all giving me a lot of.. hate. I wish that Everyone in this world would see me for the True Hearted and Loving person I am. You need to understand - I am not [[Chris and reality|delusional and cartoony!]] During the last six months, something Really Bad happened to me and...}}

{{quotebox|2.I can't talk about it on here for Very Specific reasons. As a result of What Happened, our finances are Very Low - the worst is has ever been. I hope that y'all can know what happened in the near future, but for now, I Must Keep Quiet. Please understand that I didn't mean to...}}

{{quotebox|3.Offend anybody or do anything stupid or mean. For those that are Loyal Fans of my Patreon - I have some Great Ideas to make it up to you! It is YOU, my loyal Sonichu and Rosechu fans, that keep me going! Please consider donating to me so that I can fix this Very Bad...}}

{{quotebox|4.Situation that I was forced into. Someone took advantage of me in a Very Serious way. The constant Hate has me feeling lower than dirt and I just want Everybody of the World to know - that I, Christine Weston Chandler, love y'all no matter WHAT!}}

==Never seen poached eggs==
5 May

In response to [https://twitter.com/CWCSonichu/status/992812416030400512 a photo tweeted by Britney Spears of her breakfast]:

{{quotebox|Home-made Egg McMuffin! Awesome. But that’s a Lot Of Butter (or is that Sour Cream?). I like mine with egg whites, white cheddar, no butter at all, and add some guacamole, when I have one. Yum! It is not an everyday thing with me. I would mainly Oatmeal it upnin the morn.}}

==Still delusional==
5 May
{{quotebox|I’m Still Working Out and Speeding Up with Cryzel, and nobody is going to stop me! Yee-Ha! 😊❤️💙💜⭐️⚡️}}

==Our Wedding comic preview==
5 May

{{quotebox|VERY SPECIAL PREVIEW ONLY For Patrons!}}

He uploaded previews for [[Sonichu 16]]'s Our Wedding episode, then posted to Patreon:

{{quotebox|It will be started very soon, and will be uploaded for the Paying Patrons very soon, and will be included in be back of Sonichu 16. Thank You. (It is a Separate Comic, aside from the pages I just uploaded)}}

He replied to a fan who pointed out that his lack of updates was hurting patron support...

{{quotebox|Trust me, I'm working on it! Very very soon! As in, tomorrow and next week!}}

... and to a ween who bragged about sharing the comic pages:

{{quotebox|That's not very nice. When you do that you are taking money from my pocket.}}

==On the [[Cryzel and Magi-Chan]] relationship and being blackmailed==
5 May

A fan asked:
{{quoteboxgreen|Is SIlvana okay with Magi being married (again). How does Mewtwo feel about his husband marrying someone}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|We are Polyamorous.}}

He expanded on it then next day:

{{quotebox|Polyamorous relationships and marriages are very cool there. Sylvana (YES, her name is spelled with a “Y”) is Totally Cool with Cryzel and I being part of the wedding tree. Mewtwo was skeptical at first, but he came around, and he really likes me too.

And you know Mewtwo: he has a good heart, but Cross Him, and you WILL REGRET IT LIKE TEAM ROCKET DID! Now Team Rocket is dissolved. Jessie, James and Meowth are their own trio team now; happy and alive for themselves. 😊❤️}}

A fan implored Chris to say whether this or the Twitter blackmailing was the work of a new Idea Guy and to seek help if not. Chris answered:

{{quotebox|t's under control now, trust me. I have some very Powerful Allies helping to rectify the situation. I can't say much other than certain people should be Very Frightened right now!}}

{{quotebox|I am reading the replies on my last Tweet. You just Don't Understand! I have been beaten, abused and beaten some more so much over the last many years! I view EVERYONE with suspicion because the Trolls and Bullys force me to! If I am wrong about @LittleAmychan, I am SORRY!}}

Chris then deleted the tweet with the video.

==Got married==
15 May, Facebook

''Note: Chris backdated this post to 26 March 2018.''

Chris made a status update saying he got married.

A fan asked:

{{quoteboxgreen|To whom?}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|To [[Cryzel and Magi-Chan|Magi-Chan and Cryzel Rosechu]], of course! Mewtwo may also be joining us.}}

The fan replied:

{{quoteboxgreen|ah ok}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|It's okay because I am half-Pokemon.}}

He posted a picture of the newlyweds:

{{quotebox|People are telling me that I'm focusing too much on the trolls.. I just want to thank my friend Jodi Newago for being a Loving and True friend and defending me! I don't make many friends easily anymore, but she is Truly an "Awesome Hobbit"!}}

''Note: Though some people accuse Chris of doxing Hobbit, the truth is that her real name easily shows up in a Google search when querying "Probable Hobbit."''

Hobbit (Twitter ID: sheeztrouble):

{{quoteboxgreen|Thank you ❤️❤️I'm always here for you.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|Thank you [[Darling|Dear]]! I just saw your video.. you stood up to those all Dirty Bastards for me and I love you for it!}}

==[[Michael Hirtes]] BTFO==
16 May

From the previous update, Hirtes butted in:

{{quoteboxred|How about getting a jobby job job, Chris? Every day from now on. PS: Jodi's a troll too you know. But you won't listen till you find out the hard way (again). Same old Chris.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|The only troll is YOU! I have seen her pictures - she is REAL! How about you show your face, Mr. Troll? True and loving fans of mine - REPORT THIS ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY!}}

He then made an announcement:

{{quotebox|Calling all of my True and Loyal fans - I need to ask y'all a favor, Personally, from me, Christine Weston Chandler. The account @chris_crybaby has been harassing me for Far Too Long! Please report them to Twitter, immediately! Thank you and have a good safe day!}}

Someone replied:

{{quoteboxyellow|No need, we all know it's a fake account anyway. No one is fooled by it relax man.}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|Yes. But if we start reporting all of the troll accounts maybe they'll give up after they are BANNED from Twitter! We don't need Their Hate Here!}}

A fan cautioned:

{{quoteboxorange|Be careful doing that! Technically it counts as targeted harassment and it against Twitter's TOS. It would really be a shame to get yourself suspended to banned just for trying to stick up for yourself. Best of luck!}}

Chris:

{{quotebox|But they are fake accounts made to attack me - it will be alright! I asked the cosmos and it said REPORT REPORT REPORT!}}

Probable Hobbit (replying to Chris's post about Hirtes):

{{quoteboxgreen|This guy is a pain in the ass. He blocked me so I can no longer report his comments that contain abusive hate speech. Block him, Christine.}}

Chris:
{{quotebox|Yeah, I don't know what his problem is. I think he may be the same person using multiple accounts to Troll and Degrade me.}}

Later, Chris called out Hirtes:

{{quotebox|Greeting Michael Hirtes!}}

A fan commented:

{{quoteboxyellow|Michael J. Hirtes is a bigger lolcow than Chris tbh. I mean yeah you can make fun of Chris for a lot of stuff but at least he's not a fat old man who's life is dedicated to stalking Chris.

Chris:

{{quotebox|While I, Myself, am a furry, this "Michael Hirtes" is indeed a Special Case. Yiff yiff!}}

Hirtes:

{{quoteboxred|And yet, you're still and shall always be Chris Chan. Julay julayyyy!}}

Stoplightguy: Pollo is dying, deleted mention of any "what-if" scenarios

{{Articleofthenow}}
{{quote|I would like to state, I do not, quote unquote, "piddle my cats." I r- I, the only parts I touch on them are their back and their heads. Nothing more.|[[Chris]], regarding [[June062010.MOV|molesting his cats]]}}

[[Image:Loldesi.jpg|thumb|[[Trolls]] and [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE|dudes of all teenages]] love Desi Chandler.]]

Chris and his family have had at least seven '''cats''' over the years. Chris regularly [[Vivitheg's AIM chat|slips in their shit]]. It is not known whether the Chandlers actually own the cats, or if the cats were unfortunate enough to get lost within the piles of junk and were therefore unable to find their way to the outside world. Pollo, Lucy, and Sorbet are the only three of the cats confirmed to still be alive as of [[2016]]. The status of the others is currently unknown, with the exception of Scamper, who perished in [[Destruction Of Chris's House|the fire]] that destroyed the Chandler home in [[2014]]. Chris got Sorbet, the newest cat, in September of 2016.

==Cats Currently Residing at 14 Branchland Court==
===Lucy===
[[Image:0840-Lucy.JPG|thumb|Lucy Chandler]]

'''Lucy''' is a cat named after Lucille Ball, the other star of ''[[I Love Lucy]]''. It is not known when she became a pet of the Chandlers, although it can be said for certain that she was a resident of 14 Branchland Court by 25 [[December 2004]], as she appears in [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004#Part 1|ChandlerFamilyChristmas Part 1]].

Chris once greeted Lucy during a voice chat with [[Sarah May]], before Barbara told him to get off (before she goes off).<ref>[http://www.megavideo.com/?d=ZTK7XM3N]</ref>

Lucy was confirmed to be well and alive as of [[2013]], thanks to a status posted by Chris that included a current photo of Lucy in the great [[2013 Imgur Leak|2013 Facebook leak]]. Lucy survived the 2014 house fire along with Chris himself, Barb, and [[Clover and Snoopy]].<ref>[[January 2014 Facebook Posts#FIRE!]]</ref>

Chris posted a Facebook status on November 24, 2015 revealing Pollo, whom he introduces as a "new friend" for Lucy, confirming that she was still alive as of this date. This makes Lucy over ten years old, as well as the Chandlers' second longest-lasting known pet, after [[Patti Chandler|Patti]]. Lucy made an appearance in Chris's "[[Seasons Greetings]]" video on December 13, 2015. Many people pointed out the "please let me die" expression she appeared to have on her face. She sat in Chris's lap throughout the video, but hilariously got down the instant Chris asked her if she loved him. Unlike Kitty, Lucy appears to be rather docile while still showing her dislike of Chris.
{{-}}

===Pollo===

[[File:Pollo chandler.jpg|thumb|250px|Pollo Chandler, unaware of the hardships he will face in the near future.]]

'''Pollo''' was introduced to the Chandler Household on 24 [[November 2015]]. Pollo [ˈpo.ʝo] is [[Spanish]] for "chicken", although it is also a shortening of "Apollo". Chris pronounces his name "pole oh", probably in an attempt to sound British, although 'pollo' is pronounced the same way in England as it is in the rest of the English-speaking world (Also unintentionally referencing the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polo_(confectionery) British mints]] of the same name). His existence was revealed to the world by Chris via a [[Facebook]] status, which also confirmed that, as of November 24, 2015, Lucy is still alive as well. Pollo was referred to in the status as "Lucy's new friend." Very little is known about Pollo at this time, though he appears to already be an adult.

In the "[[Seasons Greetings]]" video, uploaded on December 13, 2015, Chris states that Pollo is an outside cat.
Pollo makes his first appearance on video in [[Lesbian Sleepover Party Announcement.]] He currently seems to be in good health despite the hardships he is facing, and even nuzzles Chris a few times, suggesting that he may actually be the one who is looked after the most out of the incumbent Chandler Pets.

Pollo made his second appearance in [[Chris's Specimen Sample]], still showing affection towards Chris. Viewers have noted the particularly large and loud collar he wears, and the fact that Chris attempts to get him to look at the camera, against Pollo's will.

On 20 May 2018, Chris tweeted that Pollo was dying and that he was barely breathing. He made a plea for sales money in order to afford a trip to the vet if Pollo survived until the morning<ref>[[May 2018 social media posts#Pollo is dying]]</ref>.

{{-}}

===Sorbet===
[[File:Sorbet2.jpg|thumb|250px|Sorbet Chandler]]
On 19 September 2016, Chris [[September 2016 Facebook posts#Another new cat|announced on Facebook]] that he has a new cat, which he named Sorbet ("sor-BAY") because the cat's orange color reminded him of orange sorbet, a frozen fruit juice dessert similar to sherbet. Sorbet was part of a litter of four cats whom the Chandlers had been feeding for several months prior to September, 2016. Two of the cats "went elsewhere," though Sorbet and his sister (whom Chris called "Orange Cream" because of her orange and white colors) remained. It currently is not known whether or not Chris has taken in both cats.

Half of Sorbet's left rear paw is missing, appearing to have been cut off. Chris found an inexpensive vet to treat the wound and allow Sorbet to be able to walk better. Chris is currently keeping him in his bedroom, with Lucy there to keep him company. Chris has stated that the donations he had been receiving from [[fans]] has helped him to better afford Sorbet's operation.

Like Pollo, Sorbet seems to be considerably more friendly towards Chris, and seems quite happy with being held. ''Unlike'' Pollo, Chris actually pronounces the name correctly ("sor-bay").

Sorbet makes a brief cameo in [[Eid, Pmurt, Eid]], where the camera angle towards the end of the video shows that he is being held by Chris as he kicks a [[Transformers]] toy in a fit of [[Chris and anger|tard rage]] over [[Pmurt|Donald Trump]] winning the Presidential election.

[[File:Sorbet Sept2017.jpg||thumb|left|Sorbet, in a photo taken a few months after the accident.]]
On 19 [[May 2017]] Sorbet wandered off and was hit by a car:
{{Quote|Sorbet was found today, by a neighbor. He had not returned home last night. Thank [[God]] I put my number on his tag. A neighbor found him, looking hurt, hiding in a gutter under their driveway. It took effort, and a water spray from a hose. We got him out; he suffered some head trauma; uneven pupil dialation, bruises and dings; some bleeding. Doctor said it looked like he was hit by a car. He's staying at the vet over the weekend for examination and bathing. Say a prayer for Sorbet in his quick recovery. We all love him. — feeling sad.<ref>[[May_2017_Facebook_posts]]</ref>}}
Uneven pupil dilation is a classic sign of [[Wikipedia:Traumatic brain injury|traumatic brain injury]], so Sorbet may not be long for this world. Fortunately however, Chris [[May_2017_Facebook_posts#Sorbet back from the vet, recovering|did later confirm that]] Sorbet returned home and is presently recovering from his injuries after a short stay at the vet, having been cleaned up and confirmed to still have his sight and hearing. However, Chris later released a [[Sorbet's still recovering, with a nasal problem. Poor boy| video]] on the 29th of May where Sorbet is shown to have breathing difficulties.
{{-}}

On 8 [[August 2017]], Chris posted a photo of his cat Lucy for International Cat Day. Among Chris' followers, the lack of photos of Sorbet raised speculation of the cat's passing. To counter this claim, Chris shared a photo of Sorbet.<ref>[https://twitter.com/CWCSonichu/status/895243822543798272 Twitter photo of Sorbet]</ref> He appears again in the videos of Chris watching the [[Crescent_Eclipse|solar eclipse]] at the end of August, but his condition appears to have deteriorated -- his eye is very dilated and glossy and his breathing is painfully loud and strained. Despite his injuries and potential ilness, he still attempts to show affection towards Chris, but his attempts at meowing come out as strained snorts and gurgles, indicating that he may have fluid in his lungs; whether this is a complication of the accident or an undiagnosed illness is not yet known.

Sorbet made an appearance during Chris's April 2018 [[Twitch]] stream

On 17 [[May 2018]], Chris announced on Facebook that Sorbet has gone missing for the past week<ref>[[May 2018 social media posts#Sorbet is Missing]]</ref>.

==Deceased and/or MIA Cats==
===Desi===
[[Image:0837-Desi.JPG|thumb|Desi Chandler]]

'''Desi''' is a [[Wikipedia:Tabby cat|tabby]] named after [[Wikipedia:Desi Arnaz|Desi Arnaz]] (one of two cats named after the stars of ''[[I Love Lucy]]'', one of the Chandler family's favorite TV shows). It is not known when he became a pet of the Chandlers, although it can be said for certain that he was a resident of 14 Branchland Court by 25 December 2004, as he appears in [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004#Part 1|ChandlerFamilyChristmas Part 1]]. Desi also makes an appearance in Chris's [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE|future message]]. In a [[Facebook messages#Christina Katherine Trevillian|Facebook message]] sent on 30 January 2008, Chris mentions having five cats. If it is correct to assume that Chris owned no more cats than the five mentioned in this article, we can conclude Desi was still alive at the time. However, in an e-mail sent to [[Blanca]] on 19 [[August 2008]], Chris mentions having only three cats. In an e-mail sent to [[Jackie]] on 10 [[April 2010]], Chris gave the names of his three remaining cats,<ref name="ReferenceA">[[Jackie_E-mails#Chris_is_lazy.2C_Hates_simple_chores]]</ref> with Desi not being among them. Based on this info, it can be inferred that Desi was no longer a part of Chris's household since as early as August 2008. It is not known whether Desi died, ran away or was given by the Chandler family to someone else.
{{-}}

===Scamper===
[[Image:0723-Scamper.JPG|thumb|Scamper Chandler]]

'''Scamper''' is the second of Chris's cats. Originally confused with Desi, Scamper was a black and white coated cat. In [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004#Part 1]], which was made on 25 [[December 2004]], Chris mentions having two cats (Desi and Lucy). This suggests that Scamper was not yet a part of the Chandler household at that time. Clues from [[Sonichu 6|''Sonichu'' #6]] incidcate that he was most likely a pet of Chris by the time Patti's death (27 June 2006<ref name="Eulogy" />). [[Sonichu 6#Episode 12.5: "One Lucky Dog"|Episode 12.5]] features an alternate reality in which Patti does not die on 27 June 2006. When Chris's character in the comics goes to feed Patti on that day, he encounters Scamper along the way.<ref>[[Sonichu 6]], pp. [http://archive.sonichu.com/cwcipedia/index.php?title=Issue_6/Page_2 1-2].</ref> It is not unlikely that this is a reflection of reality, meaning that Scamper was already in Chris's possession by the time Patti died. It can be said with even greater certainty that Scampers was already living at 14 Branchland Court by the time of July [[2006]], as Chris started making ''Sonichu'' #6 on that month.<ref>[[:File:Sonichu Issue 6.jpg|Cover of Sonichu 6]].</ref>

Scamper briefly shows up during the infamous [[Tour of Christian's House]], in which he pauses for a moment before going outside to talk to them before continuing on his way. Other than that, Scamper appeared in comparatively few videos compared to Chris's other pets.

Very little info about him exists, except that, like Desi, he was not house-trained and shat everywhere. An email sent by Chris to Jackie confirms that Scamper was still living at 14 Branchland Court on 10 [[April 2010]], along with Kitty and Lucy.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> He showed up in [[Tour of Chris's House II]]. The precise date in which the video was made is not known. Chris's narration in the video suggest that [[Bob]] was already dead on the time, suggesting that the video was shot after Bob's passing at 6 [[September 2011]].<ref>https://archive.today/pmvzP</ref>

Chris [[CatKnight Interview 3|confirmed in February of 2016]] that Scamper was killed in the [[Destruction Of Chris' House|house fire]] in [[January 2014]]. According to Chris, the cleaners found the body of the cat behind the toilet, dead from smoke inhalation. The Chandlers buried Scamper in the backyard and had a moment of silence, but Chris seemed very apathetic about one of his pets passing. Prior to this, it was unclear whether it was Scamper or Kitty who was killed in the fire.
{{-}}

===Skittles===
[[Image:0724-Skittles.JPG|thumb|Skittles Chandler: Note the [[Fangs|fang]] sticking out of its mouth]]

'''Skittles''' is the fourth known cat of the Chandlers and was approximately 21 years old based on accounts from troll field agents. Skittles looked like a half-dead lynx on crack.

Very little is known of Skittles or its gender, but given the name it can be assumed that it belonged to the Chandlers, as only someone batshit crazy or over the age of 50 would name a cat Skittles. Chris probably named it after [[Obesity|his favorite candy]] (at least "Skittles" is more dignifying for the cat than to be named after a Sonichu character).

Based on the [[Jackie e-mails]], it was presumed dead or missing in action by 2011.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>
{{-}}

===Kitty===

[[Image:0057-KittyBW.jpg|thumb|Kitty the demon-possessed cat]]

Cat number 5. '''Kitty''' seems to be the cat no one really seemed to care about, evidenced by the fact that she was simply named "Kitty". In [[ChandlerFamilyChristmas2004#Part 1]], which was made on 25 [[December 2004]], Chris mentions having two cats (Desi and Lucy). This suggests that Kitty was not yet a part of the Chandler household at that time. According to Chris, Kitty was a good friend of [[Patti Chandler|Patti]], the Chandler dog.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> Since Patti died on 27 [[June 2006]],<ref name="Eulogy">[[Chris emails 2004-2006#September 2006]]</ref> this would mean that Kittty was already a pet of Chris for some time prior to that date. An email sent by Chris to Jackie confirms that Kitty was still living at 14 Branchland Court on 10 [[April 2010]], along with Lucy and Scampers.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>

Kitty made an appearance in [[Tour of Christian's House|Chris's tour of his house]], and starred in the [[20 December 2009|''Captain's Log'' video]] of 20 [[December 2009]], where it was revealed that this cat can be added to the long list of [[Trolls|things that hate Chris]]. Chris believes that it is normal for cats to hiss at, bite, and scratch people who pick them up, which suggests that his other cats behave this way as well.

With Chris's confirmation that it was Scamper who died in the house fire, Kitty's status is unknown. It is unclear whether she died, ran away, or was given away by the Chandlers (unlikely, given her aggressive behavior), or when she left the Chandler household. All that is certain is that she was no longer in the Chandlers' possession by January of 2014.
