Ian Brandon Anderson

PROTIP: There is a circle of hell specifically devoted to faggots who parrot this meme. This joke is no longer funny, so stop abusing it.

IBA Chandler sniper rifle.

Ian Brandon Anderson was a name given to Chris in late 2009 as part of an in-joke with regards to the Liquid Chris saga. When Liquid first showed up, his gimmick was that he was supposedly the "real" Christian Weston Chandler, and that the CChanSonichu account on Youtube had been hacked by an impostor a short while ago, and it was the impostor who was now operating the IBAChandler account and pretending to be the real Chris. In this narrative, Ian Brandon Anderson was supposedly the real name of the impostor.

The name

The name originated from the first three initials in Chris's new Youtube screen name. As Chris later explained, the real meaning of IBAChandler was really that it was a magnificently retarded wordplay joke, meaning "I Be A Chandler", as in "I, Christian, am one of the Chandlers". However, when Chris later uploaded Rollin' and Trollin', he gave the real trolls ammunition to use against him, as they were able to support Liquid's claims of being the TRUE and HONEST Chris-Chan, whilst claiming that the actual Chris was really a troll, and using the video as proof of their claims. During this, one of the many Youtube trolls involved came up with the idea that IBA was actually an acronym for the impostor's real name, deciding that it meant Ian Brandon Anderson. Liquid himself later picked up on this and began accusing Chris of being Ian as well, leading directly into the rest of the Liquid Saga, such as the Singstar Challenge and the conflict over Kacey.

Chris's reaction

Of course, suggesting that Chris was anything other than the true and honest Christian Weston Chandler was a serious insult to him. Every instance of Liquid calling him Ian in phone calls or in a video would cause Chris to rage and scream about how he was the real Christian, resulting in such humorous videos as CHRIS!!! CHANDLER!!! in which he screamed the infamous words "MY NAME IS NOT IAN...BRANNAN...SOMETHING!!!".

When Chris later included Liquid as a character in the Sonichu comic, his character's name was IBAChandler, just like the Youtube screen name.

Though Chris did tard rage over being called Ian several times during the Liquid saga, it should be noted that he only ever reacted to Liquid calling him as such. In spite of what they may think, faggots commenting on Chris's Youtube channle and calling his house to scream into his phone did nothing to Chris, because Chris never gave a shit about them either way. If you are one of these faggots, keep in mind;

You are not important.

Ian Brandon Anderson today

Today, Ian Brandon Anderson is only ever used to insult Chris with any effect by professional trolls, such as Alec Benson Leary, the mastermind behind the Asperchu saga, who managed to provoke Chris's anger by including Chris as a character in the Asperchu comic, and naming the character Ian Brandon Anderson, though even this has only minimal sucess, with Chris focusing more on violent actions directed towards the character, or the the improper use of his original Sonichu characters. Any other cases of people trying to insult Chris by calling him Ian is just newfaggotry.

In conclusion, this joke is bad, and you should feel bad for using it.
