Befriending Chris means trolling to him?! -

[homerbeoulve]

Just strikes me while reading something. Does he really look it that way?

 

[Bgheff]

No. trying to contact Chris over the internet means trolling him. If you are willing to hang out with him personally I think he'd be just fine making friends if you could tolerate him.

... And not smell him.

Is there any way to isolate the isotopes of CWC's smell? Who knows, it might be the solution for nuclear fallouts in Chernobyl and Fukushima. :mrgreen:

 

[Alec Benson Leary]

Telling him things he doesn't want to hear, or asking for equality/reciprocation, he considers trolling.

 

[Tubular Monkey]

Yeah, trolling has taken on a broader and broader meaning as Chris has gotten older. As of this week, it now includes God.

 

[Varis]

And of course, if you are male, your mere existence is trolling him.

 

[Judge Holden]

And from what we can gather from his church message, not being his personal army and basing your existance on making him happy also counts as trolling

and when barb kicks it:

everyone=trolls

 

[Satoru182]

I wouldnt mind to hang out with Chris, I would try to show him there are fun things to do other than vidya and chasing tail. And i give him plums to eat lots of plums, looks like he needs that.

I think the jury's still out on whether or not Barb's a troll. In fact quite a lot of trolls arguably treated him better than his mom.

He's paranoid about people contacting him through the anonymous void that is the internet, with a fair degree of justification to be honest. However it was either trolls or nobody. Without the trolling he would have spent his mid 20's pimping himself out to the entire internet... and getting absolutely nothing in return.

In fact that's quite a good topic. Would Chris have been better off if nobody had ever discovered his laughable comic? Or would he have been even lonelier without the interaction that he did have? It could be argued that the trolling gave him stimulation and there were times when he seemed to really enjoy the competition with his various nemesis.

I'd argue that at the very least, the trolling gave him some interaction outside of his parents (who weren't doing him any favors).

History (christory?) has shown that he was pretty unsociable to begin with but the trolls attempted to give him some kind of reasonable guidance.

Or at least most of them did.

Adding to that, simply not giving him everything he asks/demands constitutes trolling, which is why he now considers God to be a troll.

I think without the troll sagas to give him a cartoon escapade to live, he just would have hit his lonely depression a few years sooner.

I mean, almost nobody in the real world has wanted to interact with him, and the very few that were willing soon cut him off because of his shitty, self-centered behavior.

Slightly better off lol
He may have had outside interaction but it came at the cost of his peace of mind. Saying it like that puts Chris in the light of a victim, sure, but it goes without saying that he definitely put himself (and others) in situations that could have been avoided altogether if he either

A) exercised some common sense and didn't engage himself in the trolling or
B) the trolls had no idea he even existed.

Maybe he would have felt disheartened that nobody paid attention to his comic, but hundreds of other artists (some that are galaxies beyond Chris when it comes to effort and talent) get that same treatment and either learn to accept it and move on or they stop altogether. In this case, ignorance would have been bliss for Our Pet Lolcow. Sure he'd still be the incredibly awkward and naive guy he was back in his mid-twenties, but at least he could've made it to his 30's without becoming an internet punching bag.

Am I trying to say that he'd look any different than he does now? Heck no. With his lifestyle and eating habits, he'd still look like the puffy-faced, greasy, and overall creep that he is today. But at least he could've gone without the HEARTACHE and BETRAYAL at the hands of those DAMN, DIRTY TROLLS.

As for the competition...well...I dunno. There are so many great things that can come out of competing against a fellow artist, but Chris opted for killing them off and patting himself on the back afterwards with a page of monologue. Aside from the ways they died, he never seemed to give it any creative thought. Maybe he enjoyed it, but his attempts at getting back at the trolls were more pathetically laughable than real entertainment.

Eh, aside from things like the parappa the rapper contest thing, the most internet stuff Chris did was his shitty tripod site.

He would've been slightly better off. And I don't know if he would've been lonelier. If you consider the trolling to provide good interaction, then yeah, he would've been lonelier without them. But I don't really consider the trolls to be good company. Just plain stimulation doesn't mean he has friends or people he enjoys talking to.

And about him enjoying competition: I don't get why you would think this. All his videos in his dealings with Clyde and other enemies are him yelling and ranting. Why would you think he's enjoying dealing with his enemies?

He seemed to get into it a lot. In his mind he probably thought himself as the protagonist who fights against injustice and homos.

Chris colors people who seriously cross him as cartoon villains, but they're still causing problems in his life. He'd be happier if he didn't have the problems in the first place. Unlike normal people, he doesn't need a deeper purpose to life. I mean, really, his goal is to get a wife who'll support him so he can be the house-husband. He'd be happy to sperg around town, come home, play video games and then get some hanky panky from his wife and go to sleep.

A lot of people look at Chris at face value and can't believe someone can be that stupid. So they think there must be something deeper.

Someone can be that stupid and their name is Christian Weston Chandler.

[Alec Benson Leary]

Not lonelier, but he would have been lonely sooner. Of course he didn't enjoy his troll sagas (except for the odd occasion where he was allowed to think he scored some victory), but they sure as hell distracted him from reality.

Even his MOTHER agrees.

Maybe I'm just remembering his "smug" performance style videos as being more prominent. But he certainly received far more stimulation than festering away in his room playing vidya would have provided, but that's probably just sophistry.
