ShutUpBrain and WakeUpBrain
ShutUpBrain and WakeUpBrain are two rather peculiar videos that Chris uploaded to YouTube on April 30, 2009.
The true and original origin and meaning of these videos is yet to be made clear. For some time before releasing the video the manchild had been raving about how Ivy had corrected his sleep cycle, so it's possible that the videos are Christian portraying what it is like to be sleep-deprived during the daytime and insomniac at night. If true, Chris apparently blames his nocturnal habits on a combination of autism and/or stress, to the shock of approximately no one.
