'''''Metal Gear''''' is a series of critically-acclaimed techno-thriller stealth [[video games]] created by Hideo Kojima and developed and published by Konami. Beginning first as a series of 2D titles for the [[HEXBox|MSX]], series is best known for its 3D installments, which are usually released under the '''''Metal Gear Solid''''' line of titles. The games revolve around covert operations to destroy [[Transformers|giant mechs]] and to uncover [[Greene County Conspiracy|a massive global conspiracy]], the plot of which is so complex that it is comparable to the level of complexity of [[Sonichu (comic)|the ''Sonichu'' comic]], albeit told more competently. Being that many veteran [[trolls]] emerged from the depths of [[4chan|/v/]] (where [[Fapcup|wanking]] to {{w|Big Boss (Metal Gear)|Big Boss}} is mandatory), several ''Metal Gear'' references emerged in the Tactical Trolling Operations that spurred from Chris's shenanigans in the late 2000s and early 2010s – most notably [[Liquid Chris]], whose name is an allusion to one of the main antagonists of the series. Even [[passive observers]] usually can't help but to make jokes about the ''Metal Gear'' franchise when it's applicable to Chris. While the franchise is not necessarily a favorite of [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris]]'s, he has made some possibly unintentional nods to the franchise in his comics, along with eventually providing deliberate references to the series via his commission work and custom levels that he's designed in the various video games that he's played over the years.

Chris, begging for money, while standing in front of more than a thousand dollars' worth of Lego sets and toys.

The Financhu Crisis is a term coined by users from Kiwi Farms to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's financial management beginning in early 2016. Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on YouTube and Facebook.

In June 2017, Chris began to take his Patreon account more seriously and recommenced drawing Sonichu comic pages. He has gotten several hundred dollars per month for his efforts, and payments continued until 2 August 2021, when his Patreon account was shut down. As a result, begging had temporarily subsided.
