It all started when I was surfing TVTropes one day, and came across a page for Sonichu. I thought "how bad could it get?"
This wiki was the wakeup call. I noticed a few disturbing parallels between my life and Chris's:
-Both of us are fans of Sonic, Pokémon, and Guitar Hero/Rock Band
-Both of us failed English in 10th grade only to make honor roll status upon graduation
-Both of us are out of shape
The first one, I'm not ditching games just because of Chris, and the second is in the past. The third, however, I can change. The article that inspired me was the Father Call. Reading about Chris getting shot down.
I wanted to join the PVCC boards, but never got approved, and just found out on Cogs's page that registration is closed.
One little note: The one time I went to the Pokémon Trading Card League, it was at the Books-A-Million that Chris "worked" at. I know that Chris worked the place at the time I went, because it was before the Neo series. I only remembered getting gypped out of my Zapdos in a lousy trade and then losing to a creative player that kept bending the rules, and neither involved Chris.
