Is this message aimed at us? Or does he still think there's millions of Sonichu fans worldwide?
I wonder what Anna will say.

Chris appears to think about doing Sonichu again, but is too STRESSED to actually do it. All this post seems to suggest is that he's getting the urge to work on it again, but his laziness continues to prevail. We're not getting any new Sonichu, unfortunately.

I never believed for a second that Sonichu was "dead." It's practically Chris' whole identity.

I think he sees us talk about how he gave up on Sonichu, so he writes stuff like this to insist "no no, ignore the evidence, Sonichu is still alive as a comic project". Even though he'll never do anything with it again beyond idle doodling and using it as his avatar in shitty games.
It's more of his desire to constantly have everything both ways. He wants to be recognized as a creative artist, but he also wants the free time and lack of work that comes with not being a creative artist.

That's interesting. What's in Harrisonburg?

I'm going to throw this out there.
When Chris first started drawing Sonichu, he was essentially playing. He was pretending to be a successful comic artist, and being the child inside that he was, he was fully committed to the fantasy. He believed it, as when playing make-believe, he could be fully convinced of anything. His friends and family played along, this only served to reinforce his fantasy. He could even get away with only doing the "fun" parts of the job... he got to draw his favorite scenes, and await the mountains of cash and legions of babes, but he spent no time practicing his craft, publicizing his work, and interacted with his "fans" in only the most begrudging manner. Being a comic artist was playtime for him, and as such, Chris wanted to always do just the fun stuff.
The thing is, when Chris put it online, it left the realm of being "playtime" and shit got real. People expected him to act like a real comic artist. Real comic artists get better over time. They publicize their work. They seek out fans, because fans make them money. At some point, Chris got tired of the "game" and wanted to go back to being just Chris. He didn't want to play artist anymore, and he couldn't fathom why everyone else failed to understand that the game was over.
Now he's almost... ALMOST admitting that he wasn't ready to be a comic artist. What he's saying, or should be saying, is that things would have been better if he'd just kept his world to himself. That's actually pretty true.

THIS. But even so, he needs some art lessons before getting back to Sonichu. Seriously.
I miss your old Avatar, Church.

I think he is taking people saying that Sonichu is "dead" thing a bit to seriously.

The engineer inside of me speculates that Chris' iPhone AGPS is erroneously reporting a location nearby. I've once gotten Houston, TX while sitting inside a Scranton, PA classroom so it's hardly accurate. Unless he's said otherwise that he is physically up there, I'm thinking that his phone is just goofing up.

I don't think the 'Near Harrisonburg' thing should be taken seriously. Facebook is shit for that kind of thing. When I had a Facebook I've had posts 'near Brixton, London' and 'near Aberdeen' when I'm nowhere near either city.

We never had expectations to begin with. :/

Hmm, okay, let me rephrase there. Do not have any expectations of me, but still reward me as if you did and I exceeded them.Saito said:We never had expectations to begin with. :/CompyRex said:"Do not have any expectations of me"
