Times when you have felt genuinely sorry for Chris -

[eDove]

When his aunt Corrina died and those damn dirty trolls picked on him 'til he started crying. I remember one of them even acknowledging they went too far that time.

 

[MartinLutherKang]

i feel bad for him now, i mean don't get me wrong he's not a saint or anything but the fact that he will be completely alone after barb dies within the next few years is pretty depressing also the thought that he generally thinks that people follow him because his art is good is kinda sad.

I feel terrible for Chris now. He's just a broken, empty shell of a man wasting away after years of dedicated abuse at this point. It pains me to think about what will happen when Barb kicks the bucket, let alone the effect it will have on Chris personally.

don't you wish you could hit a trigger effect to force him to recover...

 

[StarDreamer2002]

Never ever, in fact, I'm amused when I see Chris suffering. I mean, come one, literally everything is his own fault and he brought everything onto himself, and I guess he just wants everything in his life the way it is.

He cried only after they told, that he didn't seem sad at all and to be fair, he was more saddened by the fact, that he missed on pancakes.

Well, I agree with the first part. It's not like he wasn't coming back every time, even more autistic than before and was interacting with trolls again and again.

Yeah, also I just wanna see Chris suffering cause it's funny.

I guess it's pretty self-explanatory. Mine it's a video that doesn't get mentioned much, if ever:

While Chris shouting "DIS WHOLE WORLD'S CONFUSING MEEeeeEEeEE!" out of tune is pretty hilarious (no shit, Chris, no shit) he just feels so... defeated. You can tell he's is trying even less than usual, his DIY-repaired glasses make him look even more like a hopeless 'tard and the video is completely devoid of joy.

This was during the part of the Jackie saga where she kept him dancing on youtube like a monkey and Chris clearly didn't like it one bit but played along. It's almost like if by that point Chris suspected all of that may very well be horseshit, but had to desperately force himself to believe just in case it wasn't, because the alternative was worse (...I'm probably giving him too much credit, I know).

But above all, the part that gets me is when he gets to the "when you're lost out there and you're all alone" line and how his voice almost cracks completely like if that line really sank into him and on how lonely and miserable he was feeling

I am still on the early lore but I think the time when bluespike was doing that shit with him

There are people who were born and die alone, they live in poorer situations than Chris, and manage not to be self entitled assholes. I feel bad for the people of North Korea. They're essentially born into oppression, slavery, starvation, and poor health. These people would love help and be grateful for it, but most would die trying to achieve it. Meanwhile in America, a terrible creature that looks like Leto II from Dune (after his transformation into a Sandworm) is taking credit for everything positive in humanity, acting like he looks like a cross between Marilyn Monroe x Jessica Rabbit, and tries to compel people to pray to him.
This is Leto II from Dune.

Anything involving Barbs abusive/controlling behavior towards him, like threatening suicide when he wanted to go to a convention or when Bob and he wanted to get rid of some of barbs goodwill junk

Yeah any time someone else gets deeply involved to troll or influence Chris just makes me pity him. Chris has always been at his most funny when he's trolling and making a spectacle of himself (attraction signs and "want woman" sports bras are classic examples).

 

[Volthoom]

When Bob died is pretty much the only time. I guess according to the unreleased phone call he really broke down in it and actually showed genuine emotion. Bob wasn't the best parent, and Chris obviously clearly favored Snorlax over Bob, but I can't laugh at someone grieving over losing their parent.

Edit: that fucking Christmas video also gives me feels. Christ that's depressing to watch.

I've never been able to finish the Christmas video, it's simply to painful.

That's also why I disagree with "but his parents didn't show him any better". I've had enough bad influences in my life, some of the strongest from a closest of family, but just like Chris I've had other people around or even just fiction like books or movies, that showed me that anyone can be a better person. Hell, even some trolls tried giving him a good advice albeit for all the wrong reasons. None of that helped, since Chris wants to be a shitstain.

Probably when Bob died.

This entire dimensional merge timeline is just terrible, chris has seriously lost it this time and there's no way he can recover unless he has some serious help.

Or Chris just up and randomly decides they're bored of it one day out of the blue for no apparent reason whatsoever. But that is highly unlikely.

Chris is in it for the long haul considering how his life went. If he had more structure and had other things to keep him occupied, he wouldn't be in the situation he is now. He's going to use the da merge extra hard as coping for when he gets kicked out of 14 BLC.

 

[Corpun]

I might sperg here a little but I honestly pity Chris overall.

He is a massive entitled asshole and general dick to anyone who tried to help him, but his life is just depressing.

Between Barb's lifelong abusive relationship towards both him and Bob (though Bob is not entirely innocent here either), never getting the help he needed, and always being coddled Chris is just a broken man. I honestly think sometimes reality hits him that he is a total failure and had Barb not been dementia ridden she would clearly scorn him more (Both parents hated his cross dressing already), and he has built up all these delusions as a cope and escapist reality. The thing is that is just pushing reality away and it will all probably come crashing down once Barb dies (I do pity her as well even though she enabled this shit). Chris clearly does have genuine attachments which explains why he resurrected Patti, Bob, and probably a dozen stray cats he feeds into CWCVille, Barb will simply join them and reality will likely come crashing down on him.

He will see he is a broken, overweight, unhygienic shell of the man he could have been and nothing like the boy he was. His whole life story is just one compounding tragedy from the trolls who took shit too far to all his enablers and people buying into his delusions today.

The Redemption Arc is probably never going to happen but the sympathetic autist in me honestly hopes Chris improves even slightly sooner rather than later.

Maybe it would have been better had he never been discovered by the internet or people had simply laughed and moved on. Maybe he could have found a circle of friends or people who genuinely wanted to help he that he listened to instead of pushing them away in favor of enablers. Maybe Bob really should have cut the internet off. Maybe he would've outgrown his manchild shit without the attention and notoriety it recieved.

Chris is just a tragic tale to repeat myself. There was some effort in his younger years on Bob's and other's behalf to try and help him but it was a worthless endeavor.

I don't really feel sorry for him, I just pity his situation, he is an example for everyone on what not to become and a reminder for people, even at their lowest points to remember these next few words, "At least I am not Chris-Chan."

I'd say it's a bad thing, since Chris is not in the middle, he is the bottom of the barrel and one has to really-really try to get to his level and if he does, then he has no one to blame, but himself. Using him as some point of no return to assure yourself, that you've got plenty of space to fall is really unhealthy.

Also, blaming all his shortcomings on his parents is very naive. Chris had good people in his life, seen examples of good behavior in the media and even some trolls gave him good advice, albeit to see him fail. None of that changed him for the better. Many philosophers concluded that people have innate striving for good, but does Chris have one? Maybe he had, but now it's obvious that his lifestyle is more of a choice than something outside of his control.
