Random rubbish on motivations

I'm not really intending to troll Chris. (Well, the trolls do sometimes make important points. =) My official and final opinion on Chris as a person is that he needs to get a grip, and seek help after that one video, he needs to get a really effing good grip and seek help like right now, or better yet, yesterday, dammit. Chris, unfortunately, won't learn or listen, but at least I can say I tried, and a lot of people have tried. There's only so much a person who's living in the other side of the world can do! I've done all I can, and now I just need some popcorn and a nice seat.

I am far more interested of Chris as a net phenomenon. He's one of those quaint little things that have become possible due to people discovering new and previously unthinkable ways to make fools of themselves on the Internet. This is history in the making. This is stuff that makes us question what we do. This is stuff that makes us question what others are doing. This amuses us. This makes us cry. This is performance art.

My own mission is to educate people. I educate people by finding contrasts: Here's what to do, here's what not to do. And boy, does Chris ever find ways of how not to do things! In so many fields dear to me! No matter what type of art we're dealing with, Chris's attempts at doing it are usually good examples of how not to do it. For example, Sonichu comic commits almost all embarrassing newbie mistakes in writing, and Chris isn't afraid to show the comic to the world, so I'm using it as an educational example. Of course.

How Chris has helped me - and how he could help you

  • I got a Hexbox! It's completely awesome!
  • I started a web comic. With only about 6 months of weekly updates done, it's perhaps not as deeply confusing to random readers as Chris's magnum opus, but I'm primarily focusing on improving my art skills. It does show a bit more of technical artistic capability than Chris's comic, if I say so myself.
  • While analysing Chris's writings, I've looked at some of my old writings and noticed that I've suffered from some of the same problems. (I mean, I had a nagging feeling that something is wrong in one story where two characters of mine meet and end up married before the end, but I just couldn't say what it was.) Through this kind of analysis, we can all learn to write better fiction!

Random references in my webcomic

A character vaguely (very vaguely, though you may notice some blatant in-jokes) inspired by Chris appears in my webcomic: indecent proposals and their results, what he's remembered for. Also, there was one comic that was inspired by the pointless vending machine scene in the Dating Ed episode. Finally, a few familiar-looking street names.

Note that that this is just inspired by Sonichu rather than a full-blown Sonichu parody. I've tried to make the stuff work well without people knowing the references. Yet, since the raison d'être of the comic isn't making fun of Chris (I mean, occasional jokes, maybe, but full-day bashing has well-known consequences), and this stuff seems to only annoy the regulars, I'll probably look for my inspirations elsewhere in the future... unless Chris yet again manages to do something that's considered universally hilarious. =)

Sonichu Gamer Non-Challenge

Type A: When the page detailing Chris's achievements became public knowledge, I was already half-through BioShock. So yeah.

Type B: I found Mirror's Edge in bargain bin in 30 October 2009. I popped it in around 22:15. Around 03:00, I had completed four first levels and got the "Mine!" and "Free flowing" achievements, completing the challenge. (Even with all of his free time, Chris needed several days to get these?) I also got the "Pacifist" achievement, and for the life of me, I don't understand how the hell Chris was unable to get it. I guess he just ain't a taffer.

Type C: Not done yet, but I'm so going to demolish Brütal Legend once I have enough spare money to buy it. I've got better games to get before it.

Other notes: I get a proverbial lemon prize for not being able to beat Street Fighter IV on normal skill level, even once. (I just suck at geekier fighters. I do slightly better in SoulCalibur series.) I recently got into Guitar Hero series and I'm off to a good-ish start.
