'''''Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History''''' is a documentary [[Internet|webseries]] created by Geno Samuel, which began in [[February 2018]]. It is, as the name suggests, an extensive, in-depth 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, with most videos being between 35 to 45 minutes in length, with a decent portion of this being tied to the playback of Chris's own audio and video | '''''Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History''''' is a documentary [[Internet|webseries]] created by [[Geno Samuel]], which began in [[February 2018]].

The documentary series is | The documentary series began on 14 June 2018 and covers select events ranging from how Chris's parents met in the [[1980s]] to Chris's [[Incest Arrest|arrest]] on 1 [[August 2021]]. Currently running at 85 episodes, the series has far surpassed Geno's expectations of how in-depth it would be when he first began developing it. As of Part LXXXV, the runtime for the documentary series is quite extensive at over two and a half days.<ref group = "note">More precisely: 2 days, 12 hours, 19 minutes, and 4 seconds.</ref> The series is currently on an indefinite hiatus (stated by Geno to be of a year or potentially longer), with the latest episode coming out on 17 [[March 2024]], on the 24th anniversary of the creation of [[Sonichu (character)|the Sonichu character]]. | ||
The series is composed of material Geno personally believes to be relevant and/or interesting, and it leaves out the remainder.<ref name=extent>[[Kiwi Farms posts (SamuellyGenie)#Extent of Coverage]]</ref> In an April 2023 comment, Geno stated that he was "evermore trying to make [the episodes] move faster by cutting out irrelevant stuff", adding that he wanted to be finished sooner.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/12ppz6g/has_anyone_made_a_list_of_genos_doc_parts_that/jgv9rt9/?context=3 ([https://archive.ph/r4crn archive])</ref> Even still, Geno has claimed he intends to continue the series until either he or Chris dies.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/15un9rc/comment/jwyqxpr/ ([https://archive.ph/dkFxb archive])</ref> | |||

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 (28 episodes) dedicated to [[Saga|the troll-influenced events of 2009 and 2010]] – trolls had prodded Chris into producing many calls and videos at the time, which the series utilizes for playback. | 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 (28 episodes) dedicated to [[Saga|the troll-influenced events of 2009 and 2010]] – trolls had prodded Chris into producing many calls and videos at the time, which the series utilizes for playback. Geno occasionally slips in dry, blunt observations over [[Chris and hypocrisy|Chris's shortcomings]], along with summaries of how Chris's problems manifest themselves and worsen over time. Furthermore, he uses a deadpan tone of voice when discussing the absolute absurdities present in Chris's life, and he reads spelling errors precisely as they are written, which leads to some of the documentary's most humorous moments despite being a relatively snark-free overview of Chris's life. Nonetheless, the documentary often avoids taking sides on any given issue. | ||
Geno's narration also reflects Chris's changes in identity throughout the series, [[Christopher's name change|initially referring to him as "Christopher" before changing it to "Christian" in the first episode]] and using masculine pronouns for the bulk of the show's run, eventually shifting over to [[Transgender|calling Chris "Christine" and using feminine pronouns]] by the time that the series reaches the events of late [[2014]], when Chris began to transition. However, Geno has used masculine pronouns in the context of referring to Chris's past antics, and also during Chris's extended period of being "[[Spirit possession|possessed]]" by [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] in most of [[2020]] and part of [[2021]]. Beginning with Episode 61, Geno began altering the theme music to represent the [[Idea Guys]] saga. Since the saga in question ended in Episode 62, Geno has said that it would be reverted back in Episode 63, although a distorted, reversed version of the theme has consistently played over the credits since then.<ref>https://youtu.be/W3K30u0T5gI?t=1091/</ref> Beginning with Episode 70, glitches have been introduced to the intro, with the severity of the distortion steadily increasing with every video. | Geno's narration also reflects Chris's changes in identity throughout the series, [[Christopher's name change|initially referring to him as "Christopher" before changing it to "Christian" in the first episode]] and using masculine pronouns for the bulk of the show's run, eventually shifting over to [[Transgender|calling Chris "Christine" and using feminine pronouns]] by the time that the series reaches the events of late [[2014]], when Chris began to transition.

Episode 85 has no intro, instead featuring a black screen featuring the name of the episode and static that increases in volume in lieu of the intro music. It also ends with "End of Season 1", instead of the usual "End of Episode X". | ||
The documentary series has inspired a considerable amount of new discussion related to Chris, which has predictably produced more [[Weening|weens]] who mistakenly think that "modern" Chris acts like he once did during the so-called "Classic Era" – much of the context behind trolling was never publicly released by Chris's trolls, making it appear as if many of Chris's actions during troll sagas were his own ideas. The documentary itself eventually ended up being a part of Christory in a more direct fashion, as several people who would go on to interact with Chris either found out about him, or were influenced by, the series. Furthermore, Chris is aware of the series, and has commented on it several times over [[Twitter]] and [[YouTube]], usually expressing approval of Geno's attention to detail, but critiquing him on parts he found [[Honest Content|too graphic]] or [[List of Chris's lies|fake]]. | |||
Despite his channel being demonetized, Geno has said that he does make money off the documentary.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (SamuellyGenie)#Money]]</ref> | |||

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. | Geno attempted to monetize his GenoSamuel2 channel.

[[ | In light of the [[Affair with Mother|incest]] reveal, Geno, like everyone else, was utterly flabbergasted by the extremely dark turn that Christory took.<ref>https://twitter.com/genosamuelgeno/status/1421139988138188804</ref> Geno then announced, via his [[Patreon]], that the series would be taking an extended hiatus following the release of Episode 59 (prior to the incest leaks, he had originally planned to take the hiatus when reaching Episode 60). He explained that he felt that it would be potentially tasteless and exploitative to continue the series immediately after Chris's appalling actions came to light, so he informed his patrons that he would not be completing and releasing new episodes of the series until early 2022.<ref>https://www.patreon.com/posts/stopping-now-54330974</ref> However, Geno chose not to postpone Episode 59 itself, which he released the day after the incest leaks.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk-1uVPwrs0</ref> | ||

In the podcast Geno expressed his desire to also follow his other passions, not wanting to be known as "The Chris Chan guy".

===Credit claims=== | |||
In his video descriptions, Geno credits both the [[CWCki]] and [[Kiwi Farms]] for use in research. | |||
Contrarily, on [[r/ChrisChanSonichu]] and Kiwi Farms, Geno has falsely claimed that he does not read the CWCki,<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/x095dl/me_seeing_that_the_cwcki_is_still_down/im8tsz5/ ([https://archive.fo/wgEG7 archive])</ref><ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/chris-chan-a-comprehensive-history.39396/page-236 ([https://archive.fo/ER5EW archive])</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/16k7zv2/chris_chan_a_comprehensive_history_part_79/k11qgk6/ ([https://archive.fo/AmW4I archive])</ref> while sometimes contradicting himself by following up that he does use its chronology pages to keep track of events. | |||
However, in some episodes of his series, Geno has screen-recorded content from the CWCki's chatlog pages, while summarizing portions of the text in his narration. Examples include his Episodes 60,<ref>https://youtu.be/dBN4_57TuMY?t=1290</ref> 61,<ref>https://youtu.be/40wYDbcfYEg?t=1280</ref> and 78,<ref>https://youtu.be/V3VHaZZr8Uc?t=2120</ref> which respectively use CWCki's formatted transcripts of [[Gruppenfuhrer Fegelein chat]], [[The Bad Beginning]], and [[User:Anaxis/The Place Chats#Praetor Arrives, Chris Writes his Sermon, More Bible Discussion|The Place]]. | |||

On 1 [[April 2023]], Geno uploaded what appeared to be [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyWoYB0ppLk Part LXXIV (74)], which began as one would expect it to begin, however it took a sharp turn, revealing it to be an April Fools joke and showing a plotline imagining Chris realising that the Dimensional Merge was a delusion and Dimension 197 didn't exist, selling all his toys and video games and getting a job at a local Target, followed by him leaving the Internet and eventually marrying. It ended with a major-key version of the ''Comprehensive History'' theme song and a "THE END" card. Photoshops and AI-generated audio of Chris and [[Ben Saint]] were used to create the illusion. The video was unlisted the following day, but is available to those who have the link. The real Part 74 was later uploaded on the 17th. | On 1 [[April 2023]], Geno uploaded what appeared to be [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyWoYB0ppLk Part LXXIV (74)], which began as one would expect it to begin, however it took a sharp turn, revealing it to be an April Fools joke and showing a plotline imagining Chris realising that the Dimensional Merge was a delusion and Dimension 197 didn't exist, selling all his toys and video games and getting a job at a local Target, followed by him leaving the Internet and eventually marrying.

On 1 [[April 2024]], Geno streamed a video titled "Geno Samuel - Chris Chan Interview". The video simply contained a countdown timer that reset every time it hit zero, with a short clip of Chris incomprehensively singing at the end, taken from his [[AI Chris Chan Vs Christ Chan]] series of videos at the very end.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MITx-WvKJjI Geno Samuel - Chris Chan Interview]</ref> Geno also released an April Fool's Day version of the documentary's theme music on his own channel.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOVX2ttWLXQ Geno Samuel - CWC's Theme (April Fools' Version)]</ref> | |||
===Remastered cut plans=== | |||
Geno stated a plan to produce a remaster of the series, saying in a r/ChrisChanSonichu thread on August 2023 that plans "includes fixing mistakes, putting stuff in that I missed before, and even cutting some stuff out if it's really unnecessary" and that it "would be released in the same multipart format on Rumble".<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/15un9rc/what_are_some_things_geno_samuel_has_either/jwz2gaq/?context=3 ([https://archive.ph/yrrq4 archive])</ref> | |||
==Bias== | |||
Contrary to Geno's claim,<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/18i2bgw/comment/kdat49l/ ([https://archive.fo/wjRuh archive])</ref> the series is not free of bias. Coverage of individuals associated with Chris varies at Geno's discretion, including the use of censorship on material involving them. These include: | |||
*[[The WCT]], who was in contact with Geno and requested not to be doxed.<ref>[[Kiwi Farms posts (SamuellyGenie)#Names]]</ref> In response, Geno censored screenshots of The WCT to conceal his avatars and usernames for use in his series, using "WCT" instead of his usernames.<ref>https://youtu.be/zk0k8xlxL_Y?t=988</ref> In addition, when using audio in which The WCT had spoken, such as [[Taser Discussion]], Geno modified it to pitch-shift his voice higher.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S_nzYpZo-w&t=1287s</ref> | |||
*[[Fiona]], who did not request to be censored. However, Geno chose to apply censorship anyway.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/1cqxv9k/reminder_that_chris_rejected_this_woman_who_was/l3vlhc9/ ([https://archive.fo/HfL8Z archive])</ref> She is referred to as "The Suitress", which was an alias one of the CWCki's editors had created during August 2021 in a separate attempt to censor Fiona for the CWCki (which has since been lifted).<ref>[[Fiona#The "Suitress" name]]</ref> In his series, Geno censors imagery of Fiona, as well as screenshots of her chatting, using "The Suitress" instead of her usernames.<ref>https://youtu.be/V3VHaZZr8Uc?t=1894</ref> | |||
*[[Bella]], who stated in the [[Regarding Chris]] chat from July 2021 that she did not want to be part of Geno's series.<ref>[[Regarding Chris#Bella Wants to Talk to Geno Samuel]]</ref> However, Geno chose to use her imagery and name anyway. In his Episode 85, Geno superimposed the chat comments from Regarding Chris over footage of himself grinning.<ref>https://youtu.be/XXHMhjZ-kEk?t=2533</ref> | |||
In late 2023, Geno began selling knock-off Sonichu medallions, as well as Chris-themed items, without Chris's approval.<ref>[[December 2023 social media posts#Criticizing Geno's medallion product]]</ref><ref>[[List of Chris's comments on YouTube#Geno selling Want Woman shirt]]</ref> This resulted in criticism of Geno by members of the CWC community. One example is a user who wrote: | |||
{{quoteboxgreen|Good documentaries, don’t fuck around and shit stir, in an effort for what? Attention? More episodes? Honestly, the medallion comes off as tacky, and the whole thing reeks of desperation. You can’t have a documentary, and claim it’s unbiased, while interfering with your subject. It makes both you, and your work, biased.}} | |||
Geno was dismissive, replying with, "Simply making the doc has already gotten attention from Chris which prompted her to retcon her past. Christory has already been interfered with."<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/18i2bgw/chris_responds_to_a_customer_buying_genos/kdb7in7/ ([https://archive.fo/8FzR6 archive])</ref> | |||

I tend to leave in things that I know will be featured later on, such as the development of the [[Dimensional Merge]] rhetoric, which is important enough to go over in more detail at least once.

{{quotebox|The attraction is that the story of Chris Chan came about during a very interesting time on the internet: of course, because this could not technically really happen in real life as much as it did here. It was a difficult time on the internet where it was kinda like a Wild West situation, where there was a lot more focused on trolling and bullying and saying whatever the hell you want without any consequences. And people were getting in touch with the internet and posting videos and showing themselves off online a lot, without maybe understanding the consequences of what bad things might happen to them. You know, all the bullying that Chris took from the trolls, it's like a wonderful mix of belief in self mixed in with trolls' ambitions to work against or for that belief – to create this sort of fictional universe for Chris. Which [[Idea Guys|Chris ended up believing wholeheartedly]], recently. It's a product of its time, really. You can't really replicate it these days – because I think the internet has now a lot more safeguards against this sort of carry-on. And Chris is a very unique individual. I think you might know that very well. He's very unique, a product of his own upbringing and of his own [[autism]]. And that's what keeps me fascinated. It's almost like a fictional universe created artificially in a real life universe, you might say. Um, and I can understand how this can get really metaphysical because I kinda feel like the trolls and Chris kinda helped each other to create this fictional universe for each other. Though some people believed in it a lot more than others. And that's – I think – a big reason why Sonichu/Christine might think the same way about being the, uh, "creator" of real creations, because they are alive in a sense. If you believe in it, they are alive – the characters. You might treat them as alive to an extent. I think it's a bit too much to say that they do exist in an alternate dimension – I don't believe in that at all – but they do exist as much as you want them to exist. It's all up to you.

In July 2021, [[The WCT]] and Chris discussed the series and potential upcoming episodes. Chris believed that "[[Spirit possession|the ten and a half months when Sonichu Prime and I were body-swapped]]" would be one of the last sagas people would find entertaining.<ref>[[WCT DMs#Bismuth and Geno]]</ref> | |||
According to [[Don Lashomb]], Chris planned to collaborate with Geno and make audio commentary for every episode of the series. | |||

Desperate to meet obligations, she lashed out at her real-life surroundings, which all too often, were unkind to her. Unlike the interdimensional world she had come to accept, through the Idea Guys. While they no longer actively influenced her, they imprinted onto her a seemingly tangible world where Chris had true control, influence, and love. A magical escape too alluring to let go."'' | ||

|''"Christine's life is one that no one should envy. Born into unideal circumstances, Christopher and his parents struggled to deal with a condition with which they were ill-equipped to deal, but tried to the best of their abilities to live to the fullest. Unfulfilled, yet hopeful, Christian searched for happiness, a place to belong, and himself, only to find bullying, hostile environments, and losing his sense of self. Relying on her misery to carry herself forward, Christine learned to accept her imperfect and hopeless existence, occasionally alleviating her lifelong lows with momentary highlights, by consuming the kinds of media by which he was arguably raised. Somehow, a sudden outsider perspective caused her to rethink her way of living, and found a new hope on the horizon, acknowledging that a girlfriend or any outsider help would not fix her life; but rather, changing her own life from within. In the end, Chris left her endless cycle of mistake and ill-judgment-ridden adversity behind her, and matured, took control, and found love along the way. As the troll Clyde Cash once said: 'Everybody has to grow up, but for some, growing up can take a very long time.'"'' | |||

This turn of events propelled her to a level of attention never before experienced, further adding to her sense of importance and self-grandiosity. Much of Chris's belief that her life in particular was one of great significance, no doubt was an effort 15 years in the making, as online observers continually followed and notated his activities in the most excruciating detail possible, striving to complete a complete record of this particular person's life, turning, in the grand scheme of things, an insignificant and ill-functioning individual into an icon of significance. All compelled to contribute in the name of Christory, an unexplainable desire to document Chris Chan and study study the minutia of her life. Some Christorians are compelled to spread the word, believing it is a life story meant to be heard. A lesson in all that can go wrong in a life, the practice of which only leads more and more people to discover her and embrace Christory, adding to the ever-increasing record of her infamous life. Some not only seek her out, but also inject themselves into Christory, as a means to attain a semblance of notoriety, or to help a pitiful soul who, more often than not, would reject thoughtful well-meaning efforts in favor of accepting words of false praise from the apparent masses. With an international ever-present following like hers, it is not hard to understand that Christine would feel she was of great importance to the world. At this point in her life, no matter how hard Christine Weston Chandler's body would get beaten, there was no overthrowing the mind of Christine, the goddess."'' | |||

“ | What made him this way? What is the attraction? What keeps us fascinated?
This is the story of Chris Chan. |
” |
The opening narration for the series. After Chris's transition, feminine pronouns are used instead. |
Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History is a documentary webseries created by Geno Samuel, which began in February 2018. It is, as the name suggests, an extensive, in-depth documentary about Chris's life, similar to Sachumo's. However, while Sachumo's film is an abridged summary of Chris's life for newcomers, Geno's videos go into greater detail, with most videos being between 35 to 45 minutes in length, with a decent portion of this being tied to the playback of Chris's own audio and video.
The documentary series began on 14 June 2018 and covers select events ranging from how Chris's parents met in the 1980s to Chris's arrest on 1 August 2021. Currently running at 85 episodes, the series has far surpassed Geno's expectations of how in-depth it would be when he first began developing it. As of Part LXXXV, the runtime for the documentary series is quite extensive at over two and a half days.[note 1] The series is currently on an indefinite hiatus (stated by Geno to be of a year or potentially longer), with the latest episode coming out on 17 March 2024, on the 24th anniversary of the creation of the Sonichu character.
The series is composed of material Geno personally believes to be relevant and/or interesting, and it leaves out the remainder.[1] In an April 2023 comment, Geno stated that he was "evermore trying to make [the episodes] move faster by cutting out irrelevant stuff", adding that he wanted to be finished sooner.[2] Even still, Geno has claimed he intends to continue the series until either he or Chris dies.[3]
Overview
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 (28 episodes) dedicated to the troll-influenced events of 2009 and 2010 – trolls had prodded Chris into producing many calls and videos at the time, which the series utilizes for playback. Geno occasionally slips in dry, blunt observations over Chris's shortcomings, along with summaries of how Chris's problems manifest themselves and worsen over time. Furthermore, he uses a deadpan tone of voice when discussing the absolute absurdities present in Chris's life, and he reads spelling errors precisely as they are written, which leads to some of the documentary's most humorous moments despite being a relatively snark-free overview of Chris's life. Nonetheless, the documentary often avoids taking sides on any given issue.
Geno's narration also reflects Chris's changes in identity throughout the series, initially referring to him as "Christopher" before changing it to "Christian" in the first episode and using masculine pronouns for the bulk of the show's run, eventually shifting over to calling Chris "Christine" and using feminine pronouns by the time that the series reaches the events of late 2014, when Chris began to transition. However, Geno has used masculine pronouns in the context of referring to Chris's past antics, and also during Chris's extended period of being "possessed" by Sonichu in most of 2020 and part of 2021. Beginning with Episode 61, Geno began altering the theme music to represent the Idea Guys saga. Since the saga in question ended in Episode 62, Geno has said that it would be reverted back in Episode 63, although a distorted, reversed version of the theme has consistently played over the credits since then.[4] Beginning with Episode 70, glitches have been introduced to the intro, with the severity of the distortion steadily increasing with every video. Episode 85 has no intro, instead featuring a black screen featuring the name of the episode and static that increases in volume in lieu of the intro music. It also ends with "End of Season 1", instead of the usual "End of Episode X".
The documentary series has inspired a considerable amount of new discussion related to Chris, which has predictably produced more weens who mistakenly think that "modern" Chris acts like he once did during the so-called "Classic Era" – much of the context behind trolling was never publicly released by Chris's trolls, making it appear as if many of Chris's actions during troll sagas were his own ideas. The documentary itself eventually ended up being a part of Christory in a more direct fashion, as several people who would go on to interact with Chris either found out about him, or were influenced by, the series. Furthermore, Chris is aware of the series, and has commented on it several times over Twitter and YouTube, usually expressing approval of Geno's attention to detail, but critiquing him on parts he found too graphic or fake.
Despite his channel being demonetized, Geno has said that he does make money off the documentary.[5]
History
Geno attempted to monetize his GenoSamuel2 channel. On 13 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.[6] 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 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.[7]
In July 2020, Geno announced the series would go on hiatus again until August; however, the series resumed slightly earlier than expected, as Part 41 premiered on 31 July.
On 14 September, Geno posted a message explaining why he decided to use feminine pronouns to refer to Chris beginning from Part 43:[8]
CHRIS CHAN’S PRONOUNS ARE NOT SHE/HER, AND THEY SERIOUSLY CAUSE SENSORY OVERLOADS IN ME!!! GENO NEEDS TO RECALL EVERYTHING REFERRING TO HIM AS A WOMAN AND CHANGE CHRIS’ GENDER BACK IMMEDIATELY!!! FOLLOW ME IN BOYCOTTING CHRIS CHAN: A COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY, UNTIL GENO WISES UP, RECALLS EVERYTHING AND CHANGES HIS PRONOUNS BACK, NOW!!! But seriously, yes, the transition happened, and has already caused an uproar which I doubt will subside. This would have happened anyway if I didn’t change it; I would have a different vocal minority yelling about it. The change does not reflect my personal opinions, and even if they did, the star of the series’ name now would still be “Christine.” I must deal with the reality at hand. I started calling Christopher “Christian” when he wanted to be called that, and now I just started referring to her as a woman with the name of “Christine.” The video series should not be seen as a voice of reason, or as a preacher with a message. It is an opportunity to give Chris a voice, and to offer a better understanding of her thoughts through the very many experiences meticulously documented in her life. It is up to you to make whatever you want with the information given. As the ancient Indian proverb goes, “It is what it is.” |
In light of the incest reveal, Geno, like everyone else, was utterly flabbergasted by the extremely dark turn that Christory took.[9] Geno then announced, via his Patreon, that the series would be taking an extended hiatus following the release of Episode 59 (prior to the incest leaks, he had originally planned to take the hiatus when reaching Episode 60). He explained that he felt that it would be potentially tasteless and exploitative to continue the series immediately after Chris's appalling actions came to light, so he informed his patrons that he would not be completing and releasing new episodes of the series until early 2022.[10] However, Geno chose not to postpone Episode 59 itself, which he released the day after the incest leaks.[11]
On 1 October 2021, Geno was featured on TrashTaste, a podcast featuring a group of anime YouTubers, thereby exposing Chris to millions of weebs everywhere. In the podcast Geno expressed his desire to also follow his other passions, not wanting to be known as "The Chris Chan guy". When asked how many episodes were possibly left, he replied maybe another 10 episodes
. He also said if the opportunity arises… if I can get something done with Netflix, this could be a stepping stone.
[12]
On 24 February 2022, Part LX (60) was released, ending the series' 208-day hiatus.[13]
Following Episode 85's release in March 2024, Geno took another hiatus, estimating it at a year or longer.[14]

In his video descriptions, Geno credits both the CWCki and Kiwi Farms for use in research.
Contrarily, on r/ChrisChanSonichu and Kiwi Farms, Geno has falsely claimed that he does not read the CWCki,[15][16][17] while sometimes contradicting himself by following up that he does use its chronology pages to keep track of events.
However, in some episodes of his series, Geno has screen-recorded content from the CWCki's chatlog pages, while summarizing portions of the text in his narration. Examples include his Episodes 60,[18] 61,[19] and 78,[20] which respectively use CWCki's formatted transcripts of Gruppenfuhrer Fegelein chat, The Bad Beginning, and The Place.
April Fool's jokes
Occasionally, Geno will play a prank involving the series on 1 April.
On 1 April 2021, Geno commemorated April Fool's Day by changing the title of the series to Donald Trump: A Comprehensive History, and altered the thumbnails of every video in the series to include images of him.[21] The content of the videos themselves, however, remained unchanged. Chris did not take kindly to this, privately messaging Geno over Twitter to complain about the alteration.
On 1 April 2022, Geno did another April Fool's Day joke by changing his username to Tekken Time Bomb and swapping all of the titles and thumbnails of the videos with clickbait on subjects unrelated to Chris, renaming the playlist "Freshest Videos".[22] Nonetheless, the titles and thumbnails all cleverly alluded to details discussed in the videos themselves.
On 1 April 2023, Geno uploaded what appeared to be Part LXXIV (74), which began as one would expect it to begin, however it took a sharp turn, revealing it to be an April Fools joke and showing a plotline imagining Chris realising that the Dimensional Merge was a delusion and Dimension 197 didn't exist, selling all his toys and video games and getting a job at a local Target, followed by him leaving the Internet and eventually marrying. It ended with a major-key version of the Comprehensive History theme song and a "THE END" card. Photoshops and AI-generated audio of Chris and Ben Saint were used to create the illusion. The video was unlisted the following day, but is available to those who have the link. The real Part 74 was later uploaded on the 17th.
On 1 April 2024, Geno streamed a video titled "Geno Samuel - Chris Chan Interview". The video simply contained a countdown timer that reset every time it hit zero, with a short clip of Chris incomprehensively singing at the end, taken from his AI Chris Chan Vs Christ Chan series of videos at the very end.[23] Geno also released an April Fool's Day version of the documentary's theme music on his own channel.[24]
Remastered cut plans
Geno stated a plan to produce a remaster of the series, saying in a r/ChrisChanSonichu thread on August 2023 that plans "includes fixing mistakes, putting stuff in that I missed before, and even cutting some stuff out if it's really unnecessary" and that it "would be released in the same multipart format on Rumble".[25]
Bias
Contrary to Geno's claim,[26] the series is not free of bias. Coverage of individuals associated with Chris varies at Geno's discretion, including the use of censorship on material involving them. These include:
- The WCT, who was in contact with Geno and requested not to be doxed.[27] In response, Geno censored screenshots of The WCT to conceal his avatars and usernames for use in his series, using "WCT" instead of his usernames.[28] In addition, when using audio in which The WCT had spoken, such as Taser Discussion, Geno modified it to pitch-shift his voice higher.[29]
- Fiona, who did not request to be censored. However, Geno chose to apply censorship anyway.[30] She is referred to as "The Suitress", which was an alias one of the CWCki's editors had created during August 2021 in a separate attempt to censor Fiona for the CWCki (which has since been lifted).[31] In his series, Geno censors imagery of Fiona, as well as screenshots of her chatting, using "The Suitress" instead of her usernames.[32]
- Bella, who stated in the Regarding Chris chat from July 2021 that she did not want to be part of Geno's series.[33] However, Geno chose to use her imagery and name anyway. In his Episode 85, Geno superimposed the chat comments from Regarding Chris over footage of himself grinning.[34]
In late 2023, Geno began selling knock-off Sonichu medallions, as well as Chris-themed items, without Chris's approval.[35][36] This resulted in criticism of Geno by members of the CWC community. One example is a user who wrote:
Good documentaries, don’t fuck around and shit stir, in an effort for what? Attention? More episodes? Honestly, the medallion comes off as tacky, and the whole thing reeks of desperation. You can’t have a documentary, and claim it’s unbiased, while interfering with your subject. It makes both you, and your work, biased. |
Geno was dismissive, replying with, "Simply making the doc has already gotten attention from Chris which prompted her to retcon her past. Christory has already been interfered with."[37]
Omissions
Geno has at times made omissions to the series. In response to a question on the matter, Geno gave episode 66 as an example and stated:[38]
“ | Just for Part 66, I didn't include a whole period of time when Chris was obsessing over Bowsette, and created a backstory for her which stated she was the child that resulted from Bowser raping Princess Peach. I didn't address it because it was a secluded period and was never addressed in the future. I tend to leave in things that I know will be featured later on, such as the development of the Dimensional Merge rhetoric, which is important enough to go over in more detail at least once. Once an event or idea is mentioned in the doc, I would go over it in lesser detail later on so as not to repeat myself too much. | ” |
Mentions by Chris
In June 2018, three days after the series had been removed from YouTube after Geno's termination, Chris posted on Twitter that he had no involvement in the removal:[39]
People have been asking me if I took down a YouTube documentary series by Geno Samuel. I had nothing to do with that and hope Geno and his fanbase can recover swiftly from this incident. |
In August 2019, Chris, while in his phase of role-playing as Magi-Chan, began "binge-listening" to the series[40] (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."[41]
- 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.[42]
- "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."[43]
- Chris viewed his past homophobia with regret.[44]
- 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:
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. 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. 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.[45] |
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 role-playing as Sonichu, Chris continued watching the series.
About Part 38, Chris tweeted about the goofy facial expressions he had made in Message for John Kyle[47].
I found hilarious Mama’s expression when she said “Whoop-de-doo for him” in that one video of hers that was featured.
And that includes this one; yep, that’s a Derp face. Go ahead and Meme this out of context. “Well, Whoop-de-Derp ta-dum!” |
About Part 39, an angry Chris complained about Geno reading an e-mail from the LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2013-2014 collection in which Chris had privately talked about shoving his own penis into his buttcrack. He also whined about Geno's coverage of the house fire.
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 Mama with the penis thing? Oh, My Chris Chan! Why did 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.[48] |
On 22 August 2020, Chris (as Sonichu) said that he would do commentary on the series at a later date.[49]
About Part 42, Chris commented on the Brushfire Video:
For the record, when Mama recorded that putting out the fire video, she and Barb were literally still recovering from the house fire earlier that year. Sight of fire gave Mama a whole bunch of PTSD for the number of years.[50] |
About Part 44, Chris thanked Geno for referring to him with his preferred pronouns, as the series had entered the point where Chris began transitioning to female.
Finally, you got the pronoun right with Mama Chris Chan; thanks, Geno. Better late than never. 😊⚡️[51] |
After the Sonichu spirit possession ended, Chris still commented on videos- albeit as Chris himself, once more.
About Part 52, Chris commented on his distaste of Donald Trump and the predictions he made.
I predicted how horribly Trump was going to do. Who was right all along? Me. ⚡️💙⚡️
Trump was a Mean King, and he did not get our votes then or again.[52] |
About Part 54, Chris made a joke regarding the episode's Roman numbering (LIV).
Part LIVe! On the Internet![53] |
About Part 56, Chris promoted the as-of-yet unreleased next episode of the series, claiming it would cover the events of the Idea Guys saga.
Tune in next video for Idea Guy, Johnson Wiles, and Stephen Boyd, or that, among which, is chronicled in “Awakening of a CPU”.[54] |
Part 57 did not, in fact, bring up the Idea Guys. They eventually made their first appearance only by Part 59.
In his 100k subscriber Q&A special uploaded in December of 2020, Geno answered a question Chris had posted from the CwcvilleGuardian account. Roleplaying as Sonichu, Chris asked what Geno believed to be the draw of himself and life story.[55]
Hey, Geno. I, Sonichu, offer a sentiment of support and kind thoughts in response to this. Congratulations, Dude. But I do have a question, as well (feel free to get really Metaphysical about it; break your own fourth walls). Given every single possibility between this and all other dimensions in this Omega timeline set we live in, including that Mama Chris Chan, herself, being the OC of OCs, could also have been a creator of all Original Creators, including yourself, if not that one major influential aspect, What do you feel is the most significant factor that attracts everyone's attention, including yourself, to her?
In short, What do You feel and think is the attraction; what makes you fascinated about Chris Chan? |
Geno answered Chris's inquiry at 1:10:28 as the final question of the video, stating that he found it fascinating due to how it cannot be replicated today and how Chris and various trolls created an entire fantasy world which Chris lived – and continues to live – in:
The attraction is that the story of Chris Chan came about during a very interesting time on the internet: of course, because this could not technically really happen in real life as much as it did here. It was a difficult time on the internet where it was kinda like a Wild West situation, where there was a lot more focused on trolling and bullying and saying whatever the hell you want without any consequences. And people were getting in touch with the internet and posting videos and showing themselves off online a lot, without maybe understanding the consequences of what bad things might happen to them. You know, all the bullying that Chris took from the trolls, it's like a wonderful mix of belief in self mixed in with trolls' ambitions to work against or for that belief – to create this sort of fictional universe for Chris. Which Chris ended up believing wholeheartedly, recently. It's a product of its time, really. You can't really replicate it these days – because I think the internet has now a lot more safeguards against this sort of carry-on. And Chris is a very unique individual. I think you might know that very well. He's very unique, a product of his own upbringing and of his own autism. And that's what keeps me fascinated. It's almost like a fictional universe created artificially in a real life universe, you might say. Um, and I can understand how this can get really metaphysical because I kinda feel like the trolls and Chris kinda helped each other to create this fictional universe for each other. Though some people believed in it a lot more than others. And that's – I think – a big reason why Sonichu/Christine might think the same way about being the, uh, "creator" of real creations, because they are alive in a sense. If you believe in it, they are alive – the characters. You might treat them as alive to an extent. I think it's a bit too much to say that they do exist in an alternate dimension – I don't believe in that at all – but they do exist as much as you want them to exist. It's all up to you. It's all up to the human mind – each individual brain – what you think. It's all up to you – whether you want to improve yourself, or whether you want to go down this path or that path, whether you want to listen to your superiors or not. It really is all up to you – and your world is whatever you want to make of it. Be it intentionally want to make of it or unintentionally want to make of it, consciously or subconsciously. And that's the story of why I find it fascinating. |
In July 2021, The WCT and Chris discussed the series and potential upcoming episodes. Chris believed that "the ten and a half months when Sonichu Prime and I were body-swapped" would be one of the last sagas people would find entertaining.[56]
According to Don Lashomb, Chris planned to collaborate with Geno and make audio commentary for every episode of the series.
Influence
“ | I first fell in love with Christian Weston Chandler and thought I had a big brother when I watched the original run of Geno Samuel's documentaries. | ” |
Jacob Sockness[57] |
Geno's documentary is often noted for either introducing many people to Christory or having an influence on it.
- Jacob Sockness[57]: An enabler who wanted to have sex with Chris.
- The WCT[58]: A member of the Watchmen white knight/enabler group. While it's unknown whether WCT knew of Chris prior to the Comprehensive History, WCT was "fascinated" by the series itself. WCT was also in GenoSamuel's Discord server where he met the Watchman member Naught.
- Fiona[59]: A young woman and enabler who became infatuated with Chris. While she claimed to have been introduced to Chris through Deadwing Dork, she would also watch the series on end, and become an active member in the CWCSphere soon after.
- KwaiiSandbag: An enabler who role-played as a psychic and influenced Chris to end his phase of role-playing as Sonichu.
Episodes (both original and revised)
Part | Link | Year(s) | Event timeline | Ending Monologue |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Current (Original) | 1982-2000 | Birth to his high school graduation. | "Christian's time at high school is still thought of fondly by him, recalling his sweet memories of creating artistic projects for class and frequently hanging out with his gal pals, all of which were abruptly ended with that gloomy, rainy, graduation. But with the end of high school came the promise of a new world in college, a chance for new friends, new experiences, and the first steps to a brighter future." |
2 | Current (Original) | 2000-2004 | Enrollment in PVCC to the autism papers. | "After the evaluation, Chris carried on with life much like before, with neither him nor his parents making any significant effort to change his ways. But Christmas was soon approaching, and maybe Santa would bring him a girlfriend like he wished, who could right all his wrongs and change his life for the better." |
3 | Current (Original) | 2004-2006 | C-Mas 2004 to Chris's graduation from PVCC. | "Now that Christian received his qualification, this made him more likely to get a job and advance his life towards building up a career doing what he loved. And possibly even realizing his wish for the Sonichu franchise to become a dignified reality, making his dream come true." |
4 | Current (Original) | 2006-2007 | Release of Sonichu #5 to Chris's message to Encyclopedia Dramatica. | "With this recent upsurge in interest for Chris, he had the ability to raise awareness for his cause and maybe even take proper action to prevent further trolling. Or better yet, if he took better care of his online presence, he could have made all of this fade away." |
5 | Current (Original) | 2007-2008 | Chris finally caving into editing his ED page to the Sonichu Game Talk video. | "Christian's newfound infamy brought him much stress and hardship, with him hardly being able to cope with the constant barrage of trolling, getting ever more challenging to discern what was false and what was true; what was an advice and what was an insult. But he still had his principles, his dreams, and ambitions, to see himself through the most trying period of his life." |
6 | Current (Original) (Revised and Uncensored) | 2008 | Chris emailing Blanca about porn to the desecration of his medallion. | None |
7 | Current (Original) | 2008-2009 | Chris crashing into slumber to Clyde Cash revealing himself. | "With trolls' moves and behavior becoming predictable, Chris could have had the sense to ignore them as he had stated before, and not fueled the fire. He could have realized that the trolls only craved for attention and would grow in tenacity once noticed. Clyde Cash would prove to be no different." |
8 | Current (Original) | 2009 | CWC to Mr. Miyamoto-san to the Australian brushfires of 2009. | "On February 7th, raging bushfires began to spread across the Australian state of Victoria, eventually killing nearly 200 people. Even though she was known to be living in the state of South Australia, Chris believed that Sarah may have been lost to the fire." |
9 | Current (Original) | 2009 | CWC Update 8 February 2009 to Chris preparing for Aunt Corrina's funeral. | "After he left the chat, Christian began preparing for Aunt Corrina's funeral, and his eventual trip into uncertainty awaiting him in Cleveland, Ohio. Without a doubt, this would prove to be the most trying birthday of his life." |
10 | Current (Original) | 2009 | Aunt Corrina's funeral to Robert Simmons V's church visit. | "After he let go of his dependence on conversing online with possible trolls, Christian's life seemed to have taken a turn for the better. But while his relationship with Emily looked promising, he was blissfully unaware of her true motives, and the mysterious scheme to steal her away from him." |
11 | Current (Original) | 2009 | Apology to Emily to YouTube Finale. | "As it has been shown that Chris hardly ever learned from his mistakes, it should come as no surprise that he would eventually return to YouTube. To broadcast his daily life, to express his love for his sweetheart, to threaten the trolls, to refuel the fire." |
12 | Current (Original) | 2009 | ED's 2009 April Fools' Day prank to the hacking of cwcville.com. | "The recent burst of attention Christian had gotten was unfortunately not because of Sonichu, but rather his own unusual actions. In any case, he paid little attention to the thousands of eyes watching him and he simply carried on with his life, undoubtedly to encounter more trolls, sweethearts, challenges, and challengers." |
13 | Current (Original) | 2009 | CWC only accepts IN-PERSON FEMALE Encounters to Do Not Dis C Ville. | "Despite his best efforts to detach himself from the reputation that has haunted him for years, the trolls remained relentless, sucking him back into their universe. And now, Christian was locked in a fierce battle with his worst enemy: himself." |
14 | Current | 2009 | Chris humping his PS3 to Liquid Chris revealing Chris's "real" name. | "As Chris remained locked in battle, he came to terms with the possibility that the trolls whom he hated so may well become his saving grace. The extensive documentation of his activities, in his mind, made it clear that there could be only one true Christian Weston Chandler, and whether he wanted it or not, they had become part of his life and would forever stay with him every step of the way." |
15 | Current | 2009 | C.W.C. - Thank You :) to LOOK at the truth!. | "With the battle of the Chrises still seemingly raging on, Christian was trying his hardest to take back his life. Which, despite its many flaws, regrets, and troubled past, it was rightfully his and his alone." |
16 | Current | 2009 | Chris's circa August 2009 meeting with Kim Wilson and Kacey at Applebee's to Kacey Call 4. | "Despite his best efforts to shake the trolls off his tail, they refused to let go. And even though he continued to play tricks on them in an attempt to fool them, Christian was no match for the organization, persistence, and cunning of the trolls." |
17 | Current | 2009 | Chris's September 2009 death threat to Vivian Gee to Kacey Call 21. | "Little did Chris know, but the encouragements and advice he was getting from his supposed friends was all designed to make him look like a fool. It seemed like there was nowhere he could turn, where he could find help and support, and even if he were to find it, perhaps it would be too late." |
18 | Current | 2009 | Final installment of Chris's interview with Larry Bundy Jr. to Another One for Clyde Gregg. | "With both the trolls and Christian intensifying their efforts to antagonize each other, the trolls became characters in a story, a story in which they were the villains and Chris was the hero. In Chris's mind, the trolls only made his comic book world of heroes vs. evil foes become a reality, a reality he all too readily embraced." |
19 | Current | 2009 | Chris opening his "ClydeGreggCashMays" account on YouTube to the Father Call. | None |
20 | Current | 2009 | Chris's 51 bicep curl video to the CWC Personal Sonichu Presentation. | "As another sweetheart saga drew to a close, Christian displayed a remarkable bouncing-back of spirits, urging others to make the Sonichu franchise a dignified reality, like he had done for much of his adult life. Which only reassured trolls that his life was a seemingly endless, repeating cycle, and that there was always room for another nemesis and another boyfriend-free girl to come along." |
21 | Current | 2009 | Failed Prank Call to Chris answering Mailbag 13. | "Chris seemed to have become revitalized with energy, completing another Sonichu issue and continuing to believe in troll-induced dreams of fame and popularity. But as the dust was settling from the conclusion of Liquid Chris saga, there was someone else rising into Christian's field of vision, challenging his life choices, world views, and what it means to be a Sonichu." |
22 | Current | 2009-2010 | 12102009 - Fanmail Reading.MP4 to 01142010.MOV. | "With the rise of Asperchu, Christian began seeing Alec Benson Leary as his arch-nemesis of that time, effectively replacing Liquid Chris and Clyde Cash before him, showing that he had not learned from his mistakes and past actions, and practically guaranteed that he was destined to repeat them." |
23 | Current | 2010 | What's the Name, Christian Chandler, C H R I S C H A N to Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 2. | "As another creator managed to converse about the creative process with Chris, his peculiar attachment to his characters was made crystal clear. CWCville had become more than a hobby, more than an ambitious dream of stardom, even more than a way to live out his fantasies. In Christian's mind at least, it had become a tangible reality, inhabited by living, breathing cartoon characters, for as he had stated before, Chris was truly young at heart." |
24 | Current | 2010 | Apologies to Alec and Evan to Chris answering Mailbag 52. | "Despite Alec's best effort to make Christian aware of Sonichu's damning legal issues, it seemed that everyone except Chris knew that Sonichu could never truly come to fruition. As it was, in essence, an extension of its creator, an amalgam of ideas taken from various pop culture sources, existing in a nonsensical fantasy world, destined to fail." |
25 | Current | 2010 | Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 8 to the release of Sonichu #10. | "Christian's hypocrisy, as highlighted many times by Alec, was on full display again, brutally murdering those to whom he had complained about the graphic violence of their own comics. It would seem that Alec's efforts to change his ways were for naught, as the delivered justice as seen by Chris would only create more conflict in his real life and turn more people away from him. For while he was living his fantasy life as a hero, he failed to realize that in the real world, he was letting himself become the villain." |
26 | Current | 2010 | Alec Benson Leary Phone Call 9 to 03212010 C-Ya Later.MOV. | "As it has been shown that he hardly ever learned from his mistakes, it should come as no surprise that Chris would eventually return to YouTube. To broadcast his daily life, to express his love for his sweetheart, to threaten the trolls, to refuel the fire."
Note: This ending monologue is a slightly-reworded copy of the one from Episode 11. |
27 | Current | 2010 | Cleveland Show Voice Rant to Greene County Conspiracy. | "With his recent outbursts concerning his mistreatment in Greene County, the falsified Sonichu issue, and his stubborn stance against Asperger's Syndrome, it appeared that Chris was desperately trying to cling to his version of reality in order to escape the depressing truth: that he was still a virgin with a desperate desire for a mate. And since he no longer fled into his comics for comfort, he had to learn how to fend for himself, in a world not his own." |
28 | Current | 2010 | Yeardley Love video to JenkinsJinkies' conversation with Clyde. | "As he distanced himself from YouTube, he began returning to his old tricks of attempting to attract women in public. And even though he claimed to not pay attention to trolls, he would continue coming back, proving that no matter how much his environment or the people around him may change, there was one thing that always stayed the same: Chris." |
29 | Current | 2010 | Chris's 4 July 2010 visit to McIntire Park to EXCLUSIVE Manchester High School 2000 Reunion Required NOW. | "With Chris's return to YouTube, he felt that he had the upper hand to the trolls, but was in fact unknowingly following their instructions, acting just as they had expected. However, Christian was about to enact a scheme that he believed would surely get the best of his foes, once and for all." |
30 | Current | 2010 | Stardate, August 27, 2010 to Jackie E-mails 16. | "With his relationship with Jackie still holding steady and promising, the introduction of an ex-boyfriend provided a new foe in Chris's life, which encouraged him to release his inner emotions in video form once again, adding more excitement to his internet presence. For while he may not have been aware, the trolls were the screenwriters of his life, inserting love interests and villains as they wished, in order to entertain a very peculiar audience of a man unwittingly starring in his own show." |
31 | Current | 2010 | Lars' Ship has Sunk.MOV to A Public Announcement for Congress. | "As he edged closer to entering the third decade of his life, Christian was seemingly putting in more a creative effort than ever before, showing exactly what motivated him. A chance to lose one of the things he loathed the most, a thing that he felt cursed him but also defined him: his innocence." |
32 | Current | 2010 | Pregnant Act to ToJackie. | "Despite how Jackie treated him, to Chris, she was his best chance at fulfilling his desire to lose his virginity and refused to let her go. Though Christian realized that her instructions for his videos were often very demanding and unreasonable, he didn't have much hope for finding someone else, and tried desperately to convince her that she would be the one, in spite of, or perhaps because of, his flaws." |
33 | Current | 2010 | Jackie E-mails 20 to 100 2357.MOV. | "His most recent correspondences with Jackie made it clear that the troll behind that persona made great effort to make Christian realize that he was to be more responsible of himself if he wanted to change for the better, and that his main source of support, Rocky Shoemaker, only further encouraged his current way of life. No matter how great or small the possible changes he could make, Chris felt great discomfort, and was reluctant to take his life into his own hands." |
34 | Current | 2010 - 2011 | Jackie E-mails 23 to LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2011-2012. | "While Chris's coming out as a Tomgirl may have come as a shocking surprise to many observers, the signs were obvious to those who watched him the closest. Many theorized that his curious case of homophobia was due to his own repressed desires, stifled by his conservative household. And for those who wished to delve deep into his past, Chris's future changes in identity should come as no surprise at all." |
35 | Current | 2011 | Creation of the Tomboys And Tomgirls of Virginia forum to The Red-Maned Deer. | "With Chris's recent re-emergence back into the internet spotlight, trolls and onlookers felt like they were experiencing a return of old norms: yet another sweetheart saga alongside another ploy to defeat the trolls. But little did anyone know, his colorful online presence would be suddenly cut short by a tragic event that would drastically change Chris's life." |
36 | Current | 2011 | Kaka Makeup Basics to the Rocky Shoemaker call. | "With his father's death, for the most part, trolls decided to leave Chris completely alone and not intrude in his affairs, silencing his online world. But his run-ins with the law caused many eyes to turn their gaze back onto him, and whether he was conscious of it or not, Christian would soon show that the internet spotlight was too alluring for him to stay away for good." |
37 | Current | 2012 | Chris's January 2012 Facebook posts to the July 2012 settlement of the Michael Snyder case. | "As his frequent court appearances subsided, Christian showed no sign of stopping to express his hatred against the owner of The GAMe PLACe, or his burning desire to escape his current real-life situation. For him, the social media site Facebook offered an easy way to voice his innermost thoughts to his friends and foes, and continued to do so, because despite what he had been told, he felt that his constant monologuing and reaching out to others offered him an avenue to some of his most sought-after things: love and validation." |
38 | Current | 2012-2013 | Trollsta's Paradise: A True and Honest Tribute to Christian & The Hedgehog Boys to Chris's September 2013 Facebook posts about Lego minifigs. | "Without much interaction from other real-life people, Christian's imagination took over, fueling his unquenchable rage for the people who he saw as his enemies. Even when his friends tried to convince him otherwise, he refused to let go of the idea that he was a widely-persecuted figure, hungry for revenge. So he sought comfort in the things that could not disagree with his thoughts, those that could help him realize his visions of vengeance: the games and toys around him." |
39 | Current | 2013-2014 | October 2013 Facebook posts to LoveYouLongTime E-mails, 2013-2014. | "As he continued to put his trust in his supposed online friends at this troublesome time in his life, they for the most part did their best to help. Christian's relaxed nature led to him revealing more secret truths about himself, and when encouraged, he thought more about who he was and was coming ever closer to solving his inner confusion, and coming to terms with who he felt he truly was." |
40 | Current | 2014 | May 2014 Facebook posts to him finishing his first leg of his date with Catherine. | None |
41 | Current | 2014 | Second leg of his date with Catherine to Chris addressing his reasoning for the Mr. Smith situation. | "While Christian's efforts at using his own infamy to generate extra income seemed like a wise idea, his execution of it had many faults, which included a failure to keep up with demands, and a pricing plan which reflected his perceived infamous reputation. In his struggles to help his family's financial situation, he was faced with some difficult truths about life, accountability, and responsibility." |
42 | Current | 2014 | Start of the Sonic Boom Protests to the end of the Keep Sonic Original page. | "With the recent change in his idol's appearance, Christian showed just how much he was unwilling to accept seemingly insignificant modifications. This was in part due to his autism, which made it difficult for him to accept changes. In addition, his response was the result of a lifetime of being pampered by his parents, and years of inflated self-importance brought about by the trolls, which led him to falsely believe that he had any power at all to make a difference." |
43 | Current | 2014-2015 | Possible reference to Chris's distaste for pickles in an episode of Sonic Boom to a comment made by him on the official My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Facebook page in March 2015.
This is the first episode to use feminine pronouns to describe Chris. |
"Christine's insistence in keeping herself young at heart had resulted in a change in circumstances that she felt were unjust: an adult consequence brought about as a result of a childlike tantrum. With her life now colored once again with more impending court dates, Chris still failed to become an adult, not because she didn't want to grow up, but perhaps, she didn't understand if she still could." |
44 | Current | 2015 | Chris's second hearing for the Boxing Day macing to his "Pink Fresh Lemonade" drawing.
Debuts a new version of the intro, using feminine pronouns. |
"As she continued to embrace her new identity, Christine felt more at ease at mingling with seemingly like-minded people, a feeling of belonging she had not felt in a very long time. The gay club was a sanctuary, a relief from both trollsome and legal troubles still prevalent in her life. However, a change in identity did not largely change her personality, and she would continue to engage with life with a predictable attitude. For she still was the same person behind a different name." |
45 | Current | 2015 | Chris's temporary ban from Facebook to Sonichu and Rosechu figure collection toy battle! | "After achieving early success in selling off her customized crafts, Christine further pushed her figurines to be sold for profit, a practice that she originally considered as merely a hobby with minimal desire to make money from it. But the figures now had more than just one purpose: aside from characters contained within her fictional comics, there were also individuals from her personal life, or as she might possibly see it, characters from her life story, characters which she could use to enact her fantasies of vengeance, and triumph. A new reality where she can hide from her troubles. A reality in which she can always win a losing battle." |
46 | Current | 2015 | Donation Options Reviewed. to Group Embargo on GameStop, Best Buy, and Simon Shopping Centers. | "In a dramatic turn of events, it seemed that Christine had returned to her old ways of disputing impostors, troll-created fictitious Sonichu merchandise, and attacking people who she believed were part of a grand conspiracy against her. As new trolls continued to test the waters and see if they could reenact past events, it became clear that as the world continued to spin around, so too with the life of Chris Chan." |
47 | Current | 2015-2016 | Chris' 1 December 2015 Facebook post about his bed to Update, 1/22/2016, and new items for Cwcville Shopping. | "With the seeming demise of her latest foe, Chris apparently avoided a larger trolling saga. Yet hiding behind the scenes was a mysterious gal-friend, about which nothing was revealed. Once again, Christine was in the midst of a possibly new acquaintanceship with a troll, pretending to be a possible love interest. Unbeknownst to Chris, and also, to the ones who watched her the closest." |
48 | Current | 2016 | CatKnight Interview to Jeff is Beyond Denounced. | "As Chris reengaged in a seeming battle with her impostor, Chris found that the extensive documentation of her activities continued to haunt her. And whether she wanted it or not, her past actions, whether they be good or bad, had become a constant part of her life. And like the trolls, would forever stay with her every step of the way." |
49 | Current | 2016 | Happy Pokémon Day. to Please, Donate. | "With the grim reality slowly coming to surround her, Christine had to deal with making the unwanted choice between doing what she needed to do and doing what she wanted to do. A financial crisis restricted her from enjoying a lackadaisical lifestyle. Sooner or later, Chris would have to realize that the carefree life of a child was no longer an option for her." |
50 | Current | 2016 | Subliminal Frequency Hypnosis to Donations Requested, Please. | "As both her mother's health and financial troubles worsened, Christine seemed to struggle with living through troublesome times. Her past success in creating merchandise now seemed to be lost, with the mounting pressure of keeping up with demands becoming too much to bear. From now on, whether she liked it or not, the strangers who looked on, prying into her private life, would become her last hope for survival." |
51 | Current | 2016 | Reading "Unicorns, Rainbows, and a Bluebird of Happiness" Chapter 1 to Chris's Facebook post regarding incest. | "As Christine caused herself a medical emergency, she refused to admit that she was bringing herself in harm's way, overcome with the belief that she could transform her body into a true female form. With the overflow of messages of concern and advice, it appeared that rather than observing her every move out of mockery or amusement, there was an increasing number of people watching to make sure she was safe. For Chris continued to prove, day after day, that she could not live her life comfortably on her own." |
52 | Current | 2016 | Chris's Facebook announcement to Cole Smithey to Feelings of the election results. | "As Christine tried to deal with a reality that was not to her liking, she, like in many situations before, resorted to creating realities which existed only in her imagination. Because the only reality that she had full control over, for the time being at least, was in her mind." |
53 | Current | 2016-2017 | I Tweet AND Post Simultaneously to Chris's first interactions with DoopieDoOver. | "As Christine stated, she tried her best to forget about the actions of trolls and cyberbullies of the past, and made efforts to form new bonds and possible friendships. However, she had trouble in understanding how she could be perceived by others, and what were the appropriate actions one should make in starting new relationships, which only increased the chance of more misunderstandings and more heartbreaks." |
54 | Current | 2017 | Chris offering words of wisdom to Live Game Stream - C-Log 05052017. | "With the return of The Classic, Christine tried yet another way to capitalize on her past infamy. However, it proved to yield no financial gain, as the value she believed it had was a product of her perceived worldwide appreciation and fame, thinking she had a loyal fan base of millions. Nevertheless, she would soon venture down another path, another hearkening back to old times, a return to the very thing that placed her in the public spotlight." |
55 | Current | 2017 | Chris's first Sonichu Issue #11 livestream to Doopie confirming that she knew about Chris's old antics. | "As Christine continued to interact with DoopieDoOver, she failed to see how she was nothing more than another one of her many supporters, hoping against hope to strengthen their relationship, or perhaps advance it further to the next level. She would soon find out that hope can sometimes be a foolish thing." |
56 | Current | 2017 | Chris interacting with the Planet Dolan crew to Chris revealing that he was behind the NightStar2891 account. | "BronyCon made Christine feel loved and accepted, due to the nature of the attendees generally maintaining an air of acceptance and kindness, though often it was merely face-value courtesy. Riding high on waves of happiness, Christine would soon be met with dark clouds once again." |
57 | Current | 2017 | Chris's pizza observation to Jessica Quinn's conversation with Moonman's Son. | "Even though Jessica firmly stood by her stance as a real woman, genuinely interested in a possible relationship with Christine, most people assumed her to be a troll on the count of her sometimes ethically questionable Facebook posts over the years. Whatever the case, Christine believed, once again, that she had found her sweetheart, a girlfriend like she wished, who could right all her wrongs and change her life for the better." |
58 | Current | 2017 | Chris comparing Jessica Quinn to Lovely Weather to Chris rationalizing that Quinn wasn't a troll. | "Though heartbroken by her breakup with Jessica Quinn, Christine sought comfort in the possibility, however unlikely, that the nature of their relationship was genuine. This created a feeling of success, a belief that Chris did, in fact, have and lost a true sweetheart, giving her the strength to start again and keep moving forward, producing more merchandise and exploring new stories, new characters, and new ideas." |
59 | Current | 2017 | Creation of Sonichu 12 to the Facebook post about Operation BARBarossa. | "With Wise seemingly in control of Chris's thoughts, he established how easily convinced Christine could be of outlandish concepts, if one were to indulge in her adventurous musings in cartoon realities and alternate dimensions. This was merely the beginning of an insidious cycle of trolling, that would cause detrimental effects to her psyche for years to come." |
60 | Current | 2017-2018 | Chris's tweet about a Heterochromia customization in Sonic Forces to the Facebook post celebrating his 36th birthday. | "For the time being, it seemed that Christine had regained some semblance of control of her own life and her mind. Her online reputation continued to provide her with additional income in the form of eBay sales and Patreon supporters. However, out of sight of the public eye, individuals with menacing plans were toying with her emotions and beliefs, and were about to push her to her breaking point." |
61 | Current | 2018 | The growth of the amount of Idea Guys to a string of tweets Chris posted about his fetishes. | "From the events of these past few days, it became all the more clear that Christine was still under the control of bad actors. No one knew for the time being their true identities, the extent of their torment, or even the lengths they would soon go to use Chris's loosening grip on reality for their own amusement." |
62 | Current | 2018 | Chris streaming on Twitch urging others to buy his eBay items to a desperate plea video for monetary donations. | "In the aftermath of the Idea Guys Saga, Christine was left in a dire financial situation. Desperate to meet obligations, she lashed out at her real-life surroundings, which all too often, were unkind to her. Unlike the interdimensional world she had come to accept, through the Idea Guys. While they no longer actively influenced her, they imprinted onto her a seemingly tangible world where Chris had true control, influence, and love. A magical escape too alluring to let go." |
63 | Current | 2018 | A Twitter post of Chris attempting to sell his old phone on eBay to a video in which he states the importance of his ponysona Night Star. | "With the recent ousting of the Idea Guys came support in the form of Null and the other Guard Dogs, who did what they could to quell the abuse and negative attention that surrounded Christine. What they couldn't restrict, however, were Chris's own actions, which would undoubtedly, like many times before, attract many curious and unkind eyes once more." |
64 | Current | 2018 | Justin Silverman emailing Chris about his fundraising campaign to get to the convention to Chris leaving BronyCon 2018. | "After packing up her things, Christine made her way back to the car and began her trip back home: back to reality, and back to troubles." |
65 | Current | 2018 | Waiting for the tow truck to Barbara Chandler will be making out autographed photos and posters. | "Christine had begun to embrace her infamy once more, by increasing her merchandise output. However, like with the ideas she sought from her circle of friends and acquaintances, she focused on instant gratification with no foresight of her future outlook, dooming herself to an endless cycle of foregoing needs in favor of wants. Ignoring mistakes of her past that she was bound to relive in the future." |
66 | Current | 2018 | A tweet from Chris in which he asks for the whereabouts of his Wikipedia page to a text message in which Chris states his lost cat Sorbet had died and merged with his counterpart in the sister dimension. | "As the Chandler household slipped further and further into debt, and the future looked more and more uncertain, Christine tried her hardest to escape the misery of her life by creating the hope for a new one. She hoped all her and others' creations would come alive and live side by side with her. She hoped that if she tried really hard to believe in the Merge, it could indeed come true. She hoped that if people agreed with her, it could let her know that there truly could be a way out from the life she made." |
67 | Current | 2018-2019 | Chris explaining the Dimensional Merge to Chris falling out with The Captain. | "From this recent turn of events, it was apparent that meddling in Christine's life, no matter with good intentions or bad, was bound to only bring trouble for all involved. As those who got too close had to deal with the negative fallout, Chris careened on, changing rules for her life to form as many comfortable cushions as possible, to brace herself for whatever inevitable blow may come." |
68 | Current | 2019 | Chris announcing he will not be attending MAGfest to Chris begging to be unblocked by the Brony Analysts. | "Cracking under the pressure of the people she sought comfort in pushing her away, Christine once more failed to acknowledge that her own actions were largely at fault. For most people, it is difficult to own up to their mistakes, and take the blame and inevitable consequences. For a goddess like Christine, whose reality decreed she could do no wrong, perhaps it was impossible." |
69 | Current | 2019 | Chris forgives Twitter blockings to Chris being gifted a Nintendo Switch | "From recent developments, it seemed that some individuals were very willing to spend their time and money to attempt to help Christine in some way, seeing her as a hapless victim in an unfortunate environment, surrounded by hate. They regrettably did not realize that, not unlike Chris herself, they failed to learn from mistakes of the past and hoped against hope for a well-intended - but doomed to fail - brighter future." |
70 | Current | 2019 | From Bryanfrogboy's prequel video to Sarah and Steve defending their enabling on Twitter.
The intro from this episode onward begins featuring increasingly disintegrative "glitches" in the lead-up to Chris's arrest for incest. |
"As debt further mounted, Christine found comfort in the people that followed her, for she could almost surely depend on someone to financially help her when needed. In her world, helping hands were always within reach. With such a life, there was no need to try to improve or to change." |
71 | Current | 2019 | From Pappy Van Poodle Interview to Chris begging for money to attend Bronycon. | "As BronyCon soon approached, Christine clamored for any hope of recapturing the perceived love and acceptance she felt during the previous convention. For her, it was an escape from a world of bullying, demands, responsibilities, and accountability; to a small part of the world where she would have freedom, and not be judged and ridiculed. She would do all she was willing to in order to achieve that release, if only for a moment." |
72 | Current | 2019 | From Thinking of selling bath water to First recorded statement of Magi-Chan Sonichu - August 15, 2019. | "As the prophesized Dimensional Merge continued to elude her in her time of need, [Audio glitch] -and used by those with ulterior motives, boosting her beliefs so as not to break the bond. After years of being tricked into believing alternate realities, it seemed that there was no one who could break the cycle and bring her back to reality. The stage was set for new players to enter and perform the roles that only Chris wanted to see." |
73 | Current | 2019 | From Chris and Magi-Chan are luminaries to Chris orders the Shipfic cards, snaps at customers wanting books.
This episode is notable as the only one with a sponsorship, which Geno segues into after reading the Magi-Chan tweet that serves as the opening. |
"Christine continued to live in her own world of idyllic illusion, though supplanting her famed comics with trading cards, perhaps to hearken back to his younger years of playing trading card games. But now, instead of seeking the thrill of winning matches, she was enacting fantasies of matchmaking and romance with characters of her own design, controlling a game of love over which Chris herself had no control." |
74 (Faux) | Current | 2019-2023 | An April Fool's joke that gives a false good ending to Christory. | "Christine's life is one that no one should envy. Born into unideal circumstances, Christopher and his parents struggled to deal with a condition with which they were ill-equipped to deal, but tried to the best of their abilities to live to the fullest. Unfulfilled, yet hopeful, Christian searched for happiness, a place to belong, and himself, only to find bullying, hostile environments, and losing his sense of self. Relying on her misery to carry herself forward, Christine learned to accept her imperfect and hopeless existence, occasionally alleviating her lifelong lows with momentary highlights, by consuming the kinds of media by which he was arguably raised. Somehow, a sudden outsider perspective caused her to rethink her way of living, and found a new hope on the horizon, acknowledging that a girlfriend or any outsider help would not fix her life; but rather, changing her own life from within. In the end, Chris left her endless cycle of mistake and ill-judgment-ridden adversity behind her, and matured, took control, and found love along the way. As the troll Clyde Cash once said: 'Everybody has to grow up, but for some, growing up can take a very long time.'" |
74 | Current | 2019 | From Chris' GoFundMe for BABSCon to his reply to the troll @CWCEmmanuelle. | "After a decade-long cycle of bullying, mistakes, and ill-judgment-ridden adversity, Christine found solace after rejecting the reality that treated her so harshly, greatly aided by individuals seeking some semblance of internet notoriety, driven by the misguided belief that they were contributing to a story of historical note. Chris's life was one that no one should envy nor influence, for if left to her own devices, she may not believe it was possible to escape her consequences in search of a better life." |
75 | Current | 2019-2020 | From Chris and Jacob Sockness arguing over character ownership to The End Games blocking Chris on Twitter. | "As time went on, Christine's inter-dimensional lore grew and became more convoluted, confusing herself and others by mixing what creating and chronicling characters and events truly meant, trying to hold on to her make-believe idyllic world, despite its tearing at the seams right in front of her. As a possible reaction to her perplexment, Chris sought comfort in others in the real world, who could help her expand the lore of her fantasy and encourage her to keep moving forward, though it appeared to be a Herculean task, since Chris was still Chris." |
76 | Current | 2020 | From The End Games receiving a threatening letter from Chris to "Sonichu" explaining how COVID-19 was eradicated in dimension C-197. | "As COVID-19 brought about a need for social distancing, mass travel restrictions, and closings of establishments, it is conceivable that Christine used the concept of a body switch scenario to further engross herself in an escapist fantasy, one in which she managed to attend the long-awaited BABScon in an alternate timeline. As it has happened before, negative outside influences only encouraged a deeper retreat into fantasy, that Chris was now less likely than ever to let go." |
77 | Current | 2020 | From "Sonichu" participating in the Leftovers Tonight stream to Chris's Last Will and Testament. | None |
78 | Current | 2020 | From "Sonichu" assuring everyone that Chris and Barbara are safe to the Goochland Library Sermon. | None |
79 | Current | 2020 | From "Sonichu" planning to appear on The Create Unknown podcast to "Sonichu" having a premonition concerning Manchester High School. | "With the Dimensional Merge perpetually approaching, but never arriving, Christine reached out to any conceivable source of media that could reassure her that her reveries would come true, seeking guidance in Randy Stair's history and twisting past events to make them fit into her personal reality. Though as hard as the Watchmen may have tried to keep her grounded, they were powerless to stop her wandering mind from leading her into troubles that they could never imagine." |
80 | Current | 2020-2021 | From "Sonichu" wishing his followers a happy Thanksgiving to Null DMing Chris telling him not to tweet about a troll's fetish for excrement consumption. | "No matter if their true intentions were for better or worse, Christine would prove time and time again that she would only listen to those who encouraged her beliefs of an idyllic universe, that could right all her wrongs and change her life for the better." |
81 | Current | 2021 | From "Sonichu" discussing the fallout of the Larry Vaughn saga with the Watchmen to the second Psychic Discord chat with KwaiiSandbag. | "No matter if their true intentions were for better or worse, Christine would prove time and time again that she would only listen to those who encouraged her beliefs of an idyllic universe, that could right all her wrongs and change her life for the better."
Note: This ending monologue is a copy of the one from Episode 80. |
82 | Current | 2021 | From "Sonichu" sharing his feelings of loneliness with the Watchmen to the Affirmations List and Lovers Attributes List. | "As more and more people tried to sway her into a different state of thought, Christine started to push against their efforts, convincing herself that her perceived sense of divinity was being challenged and tested. After many years of indulging in fanciful lies, she now seemed incapable of accepting an inconvenient truth." |
83 | Current | 2021 | From Chris finding masturbation tiring to discounted meditation stones on Praetor's Etsy shop. | "In her seemingly ever-uncertain life, Christine reflected on her past and present in an effort to find her future, utilizing any and all spiritual and New Age means she could find. While believing herself a guide and a source of wisdom, she was but a blind follower, accepting any outcome given, allowing her thoughts be altered by players working from the very same playbook that others used so many years before." |
84 | Current | 2021 | From Chris sharing his first of daily Tarot card reading on Twitter, to sharing two new photos of Barb's haircut. | "From the outset, Christine's life seemed to have taken a positive turn. With Null's help, she and her followers saw just how much of an active fan base Chris still had, and just how many were willing to help her reach her life goals, with some, perhaps quietly, expecting trouble to follow her in her new adventures. However, no one could have predicted how her life would soon be dramatically altered, forever." |
85 | Current | 2021 | From Chris continuing to complete commissions for his fundraiser to get his to the Everfree Northwest convention, to the troll Bella getting discovered.
This episode lacks the normal intro altogether, with the opening disclaimers and titles over a black screen while a buzzing noise plays that increases in volume, until the screen turns white. |
"As for Christine, she remained in jail, seemingly under the belief that her actions would bring no long-term repercussions, and that her confinement was a result of a momentous misunderstanding. Whatever historic event she thought would come about during the Dimension Merge was seemingly taking place, a perverted expression of affection brought about by the burning of sexual frustration. This turn of events propelled her to a level of attention never before experienced, further adding to her sense of importance and self-grandiosity. Much of Chris's belief that her life in particular was one of great significance, no doubt was an effort 15 years in the making, as online observers continually followed and notated his activities in the most excruciating detail possible, striving to complete a complete record of this particular person's life, turning, in the grand scheme of things, an insignificant and ill-functioning individual into an icon of significance. All compelled to contribute in the name of Christory, an unexplainable desire to document Chris Chan and study study the minutia of her life. Some Christorians are compelled to spread the word, believing it is a life story meant to be heard. A lesson in all that can go wrong in a life, the practice of which only leads more and more people to discover her and embrace Christory, adding to the ever-increasing record of her infamous life. Some not only seek her out, but also inject themselves into Christory, as a means to attain a semblance of notoriety, or to help a pitiful soul who, more often than not, would reject thoughtful well-meaning efforts in favor of accepting words of false praise from the apparent masses. With an international ever-present following like hers, it is not hard to understand that Christine would feel she was of great importance to the world. At this point in her life, no matter how hard Christine Weston Chandler's body would get beaten, there was no overthrowing the mind of Christine, the goddess." |
