'''Rollin' and Trollin'''' is a video of downtown [[CWCville]] (really downtown [[Charlottesville]]) uploaded on 17 [[July 2009]] in which Chris attempts [[Wikipedia:Andy Kaufman|Kaufmanesque humor]]. Notable is a video message to real life [[trolls]], including several [[CWCki]] editors. The key component of this message is that, in a shocking turn of events, Chris was engaging in the most elaborate trolling scheme in history, and has duped us all masterfully. (If only that were true.)
'''Apology for 9/11 Joke''' is a video that [[Chris]] uploaded to [[YouTube]] on 2 [[November 2009]]. Here, he attempts to excuse [[Twin Falling Towers|his less-than-sympathetic video making light of the attacks that demolished the World Trade Center]]. Chris also shares with us his personal rendition of [[Chris and music|"God Bless America"]] until he realizes that he doesn't know the lyrics. At first, it seems to be a slightly sincere apology.


To sell the deception, [[Chris]] changed his look to have a normal hairstyle, [[Krapple|a goatee]], sunglasses instead of large, square [[Pedo-Glasses|pedo glasses]], plain blue T-shirt and jeans, [[navy]] blue sleeveless unbuttoned shirt over his t-shirt, dog-collar bracelets, his forearms appear to be covered in thick tattoos, complements the tattoo sleeve from the [[Fuck Quest|fuck quest]], no [[Amnyfest Ring]], and a chain with some dog tags, instead of his trademark [[Sonichu medallion]]. Of course, the disguise unintentionally gave away the truth: the lack of the ring and medallion suggested that Chris was not entirely TRUE and HONEST when he made this video, something that he indeed confirmed later.
Then, Chris reveals another attempt at scaring away [[Clyde Cash]] by sticking the photoshopped World Trade Center image onto a clip art of a birthday cake, and putting "flames" at the tops of the Twin Candle Towers.

Then, Chris reveals another attempt at scaring away Clyde Cash by sticking the photoshopped World Trade Center image onto a clip art of a birthday cake, and putting "flames" at the tops of the Twin Candle Towers.
