Talk:Random-access humor

This got me thinking.... if he's still an Adult Swim watcher, what do you think Chrissy thinks of Xavier : Renegade Angel? That entire show is based on the completely inaccurate "random = funny" formula. It's basically what would happen if Katy and Chris made a tv show, minus the blatant self promotion and Katy getting mercilessly tard raped.William Maize 21:54, 16 March 2009 (CET)

• The problem with this comparison is that Xavier: Renegade Angel doesn't make constant references to other media. It's random, but it's more uncomfortably-weird random, like a David Lynch movie with a fiftieth of the budget. Chris-chan's lolrandum humor is staid and predictable, whereas Xavier is more like drinking a lot of cough syrup and watching Aphex Twin videos. Ensign disposable 11:40, 16 June 2009 (CEST)

Someone photoshop an image related to this and this could be Featured Article potential stuff. --Champthom 01:00, 18 March 2009 (CET)

• Hmm, now that I think about it, I just need to find a good case of Chris's "humor" from the comics. Problem is, it's hard to tell when he's intentionally being funny or when it's unintentional. --Champthom 08:24, 19 March 2009 (CET)

Instead of a photoshop picture, if someone could get a picture of Wild saying "Snergen Flergen", that'd be good, because apparently that's Swedish for "Random access humor." --Champthom 00:34, 23 May 2009 (CEST)

• Photoshop + Snergen Flergen! ... the "CWC Star" from the scrapbook looked waaay too much like the Advice _____ meme for me to resist. The colors are even in the right order if you rotate it. Needlepants 21:29, 5 August 2009 (CEST)

A Side Project

Try and find the sources of these quotes, when possible. That is, find out what's original and what he's ripped out. Apparently, the Carrot quote is from an episode of Ed, Edd, and Eddy but I can't find the original episode it appeared in (it's only quoted in some forum .sigs and by some fanfic fags). --Champthom 08:24, 19 March 2009 (CET)

eh hehehehe heee

It's probably the robitussin but this page is hilarious to me. To do: watch more CWC under the influence of everything. Gzanon 07:08, 18 July 2009 (CEST)

List of every instance of random access humor

So, I think most of us have an idea what constitutes - childish rhymes, pop culture non sequiturs, etc. Would any of you feel that the task of trying to catalog every instance of random-access humor in the comics be unfeasible? Because I think we could reasonably catalog every instance. --Champthom 13:28, 21 September 2009 (CEST)

• There's nothing that'd prevent us from making one, but it'd take up a ridiculous amount of page space. It might be worth making it its own page, separate from this article like say 'List of Chris's Attempts at Humor'. The worst part would be it wouldn't even be covering the humour Chris uses in his videos! Maybe we should just have a page that covers every one of Chris's failed attempts at humor and simply have a sub-section for IRL humor (Ladies, all hands on me!) and a sub-section for the comics.

Error or irony?

"Each Brain in every person in the world is a computer, complete with an InfiniteGB RAM...Emphasis on Random, and our Autistic Hero is no exception." Is the inanity of this excerpt meant to be ironic? It has nothing to do with what Chris calls "random access humor". The "random" in RAM refers to the fact that a randomly ordered access of N bytes in the memory module will not be faster than choosing the same number of bytes in a nonrandom manner. To illustrate, pages of a book are sequential access, but a book with each page tabbed is random access. --Theld 20:21, 21 September 2009 (CEST)

Chris doesn't know what "random-access" actually means, he just has a boner for randomness. At times I think Chris's obsession with randomness (that's really quite predictable) deserves greater examination in light of his autism and (lack of) storytelling skills. For instance: Chris's "Random Access Humor," as observed, all comes from existing media; ComiChris could return "at any random time or place" even though it's obvious he'll pop out just when the plot needs him. Autistics have a propensity for order, and it shows in that his "randomness" is really quite predictable. Perhaps his fondness for "Random" humor stems from his difficulty with/inability to pick up all but the most blatant pop culture references when it comes to humor; because he doesn't make the connections that most people make when it comes to comedy, subtlety and the like are wholly above him.
