Attraction Location
Attraction Location is a CWC-ism for any place where Chris sits passively, hoping to attract the attention of single women. Also known as "Attraction Spots." Along with his Attraction Sign and Axe body spray, use of an Attraction Location has been a crucial component of Chris's Love Quest.
In practice, the Attraction Locations that Chris chooses leave him exposed to discovery by various authority figures, who take umbrage with his methods. He steadfastly refuses to abandon his post until he is either banned and/or forcibly removed from the premises. Undaunted, he would go on to find new Attraction Locations, only to be banned from them as well.
It's interesting to note that the use of these different locations marks some of the few significant milestones in Chris's life between 2003 and 2008, and even this minor change in his routine was forced upon him. It's entirely possible that if Chris had made less of a ruckus, he might still be sitting in his original Attraction Location to this day, indifferent to the years wasted in his fruitless endeavor.
Attraction Locations Chris has used in Charlottesville, VA
- Piedmont Virginia Community College (until suspension on September 16, 2004)
- University of Virginia (until December 2004; briefly returned during March 2009, following Julie debacle)
- Charlottesville Fashion Square (February 2004 until banned on March 29, 2005, briefly during March 2009, May 2009 until imminent permaban)
- Wal-Mart (until kicked out on June 20 and 22, 2005)
- Target (until arrested and thrown out on July 20, 2005)
- The GAMe PLACe (although not primarily an Attraction Location, Chris met Megan there, and possibly considered it a good place to meet subsequent women, at least until he was banned on August 28, 2008).
Attraction Locations Chris has used in Ruckersville, VA
- 14 Branchland Court (Since late 2008, Chris has confined his Love Quest to the Internet. While perhaps not officially an Attraction Spot, his basic technique of sitting around waiting for love to find him remains unchanged.)
Since March 2009, Chris has stated his intention to resume his Love Quest offline. This opens the possibility of new Attraction Spots, such as the new Wal-Mart being constructed in Ruckersville or returning to the UVA library.
Attraction time
Chris's time spent at his attraction location would be called his "attraction time." While waiting for a boyfriend free girl to approach him, he would do things such as play on his DS, watch videos on his DS, pace back and forth, sing loudly, and so forth.[1] These activities which, obviously, were rather distracting to mall patrons, would factor into being banned from such locations.
Due to his imbalanced biological clock (typically causing him to fall asleep at about 6:30 A.M and wake closer to noon) attraction time would generally take place in the mid-to-late afternoon. This time would conveniently (and to the horror of the female patrons of Fashion Square) provide a higher concentration of potential sweethearts for Chris to harass.
Anna's The Tale of the Crazy Pacer is the definitive chronicle of Chris spending his attraction time, when he moved from sitting in front of Abercrombie & Fitch to Pac Sun, where Anna was working at the time.
