Was it poor form to dedicate an episode of a children's television show to shitting on a literal schizophrenic retard?
>>147008871I dont remember it having anything that explicitly referenced Chris.
>>147008871>literal schizophrenic retardNot every thread needs to be about you.
>>147008871Yes. It was funny.
>>147008871the schizophrenic retard in question is so intertwined with sonic fandom history that it's hard not to ignore it.
TTGO exists and it has about 20 episodes about literal schizophrenic retards as a whole.
>>147008894There was one obvious clue.
>>147008894you can pretend that if you want, it doesnt mean its true though anon
>>147008871Tbf, it's a literal schizophrenic retard that nobody likes, so I'd say it's fair game
>>147008871Yes, because A: it wasn't funny and B: It's only lasting impact is more fuel for Kiwifarms and their CWC Derangement Syndrome
>>147008871I see it on the level as other kid's cartoons parodying celebrities that most kids would have no idea exist
>>147008894My man can't read subtext
>>147009180subtext is for cowards
>>147008871No, it was funny as shit. And since when do we care that Chris Chan of all people got dunked on? It's also even funnier now that we are older and we understand all the references. Like look at this, this painting here was clearly based off of some pregnant Sonic fan art, though kids would not have known that to begin with: >>147009046
>>147009153Those cartoon shorts appeared before films. Where half of the adults that went to that movie, had to hang back and sit next to their kids.
>>147009222>Like look at this, this painting here was clearly based off of some pregnant Sonic fan artThe arms, anon. The arms.
>>147009301The dialogue even references it; he says he hasn't finished the arms yet
>>147008871Chris isn't schizophrenic, he's autistic, and probably only mildly. He's a disaster area because of bad upbringing.
>>147009301The arms were the obvious, nobody talks about what I mentioned though
>>147009342now you go get your black ass back in the gutter where you belong.
>>147009342>Chris isn't schizophrenic, he's autisticThese two are not mutually exclusive and in fact overlap in a lot of ways. It's a common comorbidity.
>>147009342>>147009356convincing yourself that the universe is gonna emerge into a new one with your cartoons being real if you try hard enough, does sound pretty schizo to me
>>147009342>mildly>cuts his dick off>rapes his senile motherJesus christ, anon...
>>147009409he never cut his dick off?he pierced his perineum and listened to whale noises to while tugging at the piercing to get it infected to create an open abscess wound and called it his vagina
>>147009453 (me)ive never typed this out and ive just realised how fucking insane it sounds.
>>147009061Chris has been a violent racist narcissist, but he's also zapped to the extreme in his head. Not just autism, but actual schizophrenia to the point of asking the officers arresting him if they were feeling anything from his imaginary Sonic friends punching them. As genuinely bad as he is, it really isn't right for a franchise like this to do that.
>>147009453
>>147009409Compared to other rural southerners with his background he's Kenneth Copeland.
>>147009453Chris' level of autism is truly beyond that of most of us on this website. The prime example of what happens when someone falls so far into the Dark Side of Autism. It's really scary and nauseating to think about.
>>147009383The arms thing is not exclusive to Chris.
>>147009530wdym? wasnt copeland a nutter who thought god spoke to him but he was obviously scamming ? did he do some weird cult shit with raping his mother aswell?
>>147009559Well, yeah, he's not a good person and a grifter, but he is incredibly charismatic compared to the median guy with older parents who was never allowed to do anything and grew up in the pre-internet south. If he hadn't been smothered by his mother he might have ended up in the army and been some really weird NCO who has a giant sci-fi collection and is writing a book that's as inaccurate as it is poorly spelled.
>>147009481You never realized!?Anon, what the fuck.
What did Mario do right to not attract this type of person?
>>147009657its not something ive ever actually put together because ive just blacked it out because its just weird, but actually typing it out in one paragraph hurt my head a little, its not my fault my brain goes normie to protect me from this shit.
>>147009575fair enough.
>>147009683lmao
>>147008894Only the character design resembles anything related to Chris, the episode itself is just a blatant parody of Misery, but don't expect underage Sonic fans to pick up on that.
>>147009383They brought up several criticisms about Boom's design in a number of episodes. The arms thing was just a general Sonic fan thing, not something specific to Chris.I think people forget that Chris is still just another Sonic autist at the end of the day, there's a ton of people out there similar to him, just not as documented.
>>147009530>ruralWasn't the old hoard house minutes away from a mid-size city?
>>147009453Chris makes buffalo bill look normal
>>147008871The ONLY thing about Mark that’s remotely similar to Chris was the painting having the tan arms, but even THAT wasn’t exclusive to Chris. There were other moments in the show that referenced the arm color drama if I recall right.Mark doesn’t have any of Chris’ notable mannerisms or history. He doesn’t stand around places with a sign trying to get Sonic to notice him. He doesn’t wear any weird striped shirts. He doesn’t even have a medallion; the main identifier of Chris.Mark’s just a creepy obsessed stalker. Not Sonic Boom’s fault the Sonic fanbase is stuck with the most infamous one.
>>147008871if sonic boom can have a joke about sonic being racist because he's not able to tell bee's apart I don't see why it can't reference chris chan
>>147008871Was it in poor form for that schizophrenic retard to rape his own mom?
>>147009046>pregnantsonic.png
>>147009453w-whale noises?
>>147009352“I seen the klan fires burning, boy!”I probably mangled that but you got the gyst
>>147009928nah, he said he had found his one true love and his boyfreind free girl from what i recall. which was his mother, you cant deny a star princess pony lord of his bfg
>>147009941he thought listening to whale noises would make him become trans if he REALLY TRIED HARD ENOUGH.
>>147009683Not be associated with Ken Penders.
>sonic gets knocked out and kidnapped>he wakes up tied to a bed>he looks around the room>look up at the ceiling>theres a spinning fan>its designed to look like sonic
>>147009941The YouTube videos which are like two hours long and say “listen to this video and you will grow a vagina/ read peoples minds/ etc”
>>147009996now thats what i call science!
>>147009383Why did this get him so worked up?
>>147010056Autism beyond our own, anon
>>147009893You won't find many places in Virginia that don't fit that description, but he's out there enough and has the cultural signals of a more rural white southern autist.
>>147010056remember when you where a kid, and if someone took your seat it was almost offensive to your pride even though you couldnt understand what pride really was? thats how insulted chris was when he saw the arm thing with BOOM
>>147009683Not having a focus on animal charactersYou're not abnormal if you think Peach is hot
>>147008871>Was it poor form to dedicate an episode of a children's television show to shitting on a literal schizophrenic retard?This only made him more popular. What do you mean?
>>147008871Wasn't it mainly a parody of Misery by Stephen King?
>>147009046that looks like a ken penders drawing
>>147008894>I don't remember getting orange soda
>>147009557>>147009855They made Mark look like classic era Chris Chan, had him order orange soda, referenced the blue arms thing, and had him try to kill Sonic with his car like Chris Chan did with Michael Snyder.
>>147009683It doesn't appeal to furries.But most importantly, Mario doesn't have the whole smug "pssh, nothin personnel" kind of "cool dude" attitude that Sonic does. Autists genuinely believe that Sonic is a cool person, and that if they act like Sonic or Sonic characters, they will also be just as cool as he is.Mario just says "itsa me" and jumps on heads. He's not a smug fuckface like Sonic.
>>147010534No, that’s much better than any Penders drawing
>>147010462Did it really?
>>147009514I mean, this was before he went truly insane and all the worst shit he did started coming to light, back then he was just a punching bag where the maximum damage he caused was macing a GameSto employeeSo yeah, I still say fair game, at least for the time
>>147009559IDK about Copeland but Hustler used to publish jokes about Jerry Falwell fucking his mom.
>>147008894look at him
>>147008871I think it's just that Chris Chan is the archetypal over-obsessed nerd in the internet age. The kind of person that lives and breathes "Sonic the Hedgehog" every waking second. So when considering their options for how to depict such a character, it's only natural they would use Chris Chan. But it isn't explicitly mocking HIM, just what he represents.
>>147009036That's every episode of TTGO
>>147011184He is currently living somewhere in Norway with his wife and is having his first kid. He seemed to had net himself someone who saw his creepy autism charming. let this be a lesson to never become self aware of your foolishness. Without shame, you are invulnerable to societies pressures.
>>147012452The kid thing was just Chris bullshitting hypotheticals and getting everyone wound up.
>>147009342he literally has conversation with imaginary hedgehogs
>>147009683Because people target sonic autists. All children's franchises are overrun with autistic people
>>147009683Mario's just "a guy", the only autists he attracts are the Yoshi nutcases and those dudes that do things like Sigmario, the ultimate life form or whatever.Sonic is an autist magnet franchise as every character is "simple base design + a couple animal features + solid color", which is the same reason why so many legit autists joined MLP alongside the bronies (though swap "animal features" out with wings / a horn / nothing).I remember reading something about how autistic people (mostly kids) are drawn to simple designs and simple coloring, though I'm too lazy to look that up.
>>147009453... Trannies are monsters.
>>147008871I think it was more an embodiment of "Deviantart Sonic Fans" as a whole, Chris just happens to also be the living embodiment of that community. Like, you try to make a character like this while avoiding turning it into something that people will look at and go "Oh, it's just Chris"Now, i'm not saying they definitely DIDN'T just adapt Chris, but i am saying that i think anyone would be hard pressed to make this kind of character without Chris parallels.
>>147009368It's pure cope, he knows it isn't real but he can't interact with the real world ao he gave up on it. When he was pretending Sonichu possessed him during covid, he constantly fucked up and talked about him before correcting himself and saying, "I mean I did that, here, in mama's body">>147009409We have zero confirmation Barb is senile. They're still letting her live on her own so she can't be doing that poorly. If he was raping her she could've pressed charges and testified against him, but she didn't, so Chris just spent a year and a half in jail and a mental hospital while the county figured out where the fuck to put him. Right after Chris was arrested Barb was in a car accident that looked like a suicide attempt; she's always been nuts and figured that was the best way out now that the community knew she let her retarded son fuck her
>>147009514nah, it's pretty funny, you soft cunt
>>147008871Sonic will never be this fun again
>>147013259Supposedly she refused to let them do a rape kit on her too, guess she didn't want any more embarrassing attention.
>>147009683Mario gets its own brand of autismos, believe me
>>147009977Penders was in a Valiant Zelda comic thoughbut Valiant lost the Nintendo license before the taint could settle in
>>147013298It is funny, but it's inappropriate. Not even South Park dedicated an episode to making fun of a mentally ill fan.
>>147009514I feel no sympathy for rapists
Does anyone feel like they went through a Mandela effect with Sonic Prime? I could have sworn the show ended on a cliffhanger with evil Tails about to destroy everything, yet I found out today that the show has an actual proper ending.
>>147008871Anybody else missing the meta era of Sonic?I miss the references to Sonichu, or OCs, Sanic and other memes being referenced on twitter.It was definitely more fun than Ian "Look how many references I can make and look how many SATAM and Archie references I can get past the mandates" Flynn's work. Grass is always greener, I guess.
>>147013705This was before they knew he was a rapist and this isn't about his feelings or anyone's sympathy. It would be inappropriate of them to spend an episode making fun of Hitler or Dahmer.
>>147009131Hi, Chris
>>147009453Oh yeah, because that’s so much better
>>147014030>It would be inappropriate of them to spend an episode making fun of Hitler or Dahmer.Inappropriate for a kids show? Or inappropriate because they're making fun of literal monsters?
>>147013738No. Big The Cat jokes stopped being funny when they spammed him.
>>147013732it's just that everybody stop giving a shit once evil tails was not longer the main villain of the show
C'mon it was genius.A great parody episode and a great satire of the Sonic fandom.
>>147014196We need that more than ever now
>>147008871Would you not dedicate a show to shitting on /co/ if you had the chance?
>>147009699Thats your brain giving you a small bit of trauma to protect you from the internet at large. Like mini PTSD
>>147014227If I had kids in my audience, probably not cuz they wouldn’t get it
>>147014250Your show is dead at this point.Your remaining time and funds is dedicated to performing to man children and autism cases
>>147014219Today’s Sega would never allow this
>>147012452>gets every detail wronghow embarrassing
>>147009683He did though.
>>147014153Inappropriate for a kids show and for any family oriented franchise. Again, not even South Park makes fun of specific fans down to their weird specific gripe with a character design. Why would the issue be making fun of monsters? Are you misunderstanding this on purpose and refusing to get it?
>>147015454South Park has made fun of loads of fans. Their WoW episode rolled a ton of geek/nerd tropes into one for the unnamed player that was griefing everyone. And while they tried to go for a light touch when calling out Family Guy, they still made it abundantly clear that they greatly disliked the show and couldn't understand how it has a following. Matt and Trey are far from perfect when it comes to keep a neutral stance on things
>>147014929That there is a peak human tho.
>>147015545>not even South Park makes fun of specific fans down to their weird specific gripe with a character design.>specific fans down to their weird specific gripeYou aren't mentioning anything in this ballpark.
>>147015454No kid watching the show knew who chris chan wasDid you cry about the ppg neckbeard villain as well?
>>147015590It literally does, stop with the fucking goalpost shifting bullshit
>>147008871Mofo is on sex offender list now.
>>147015884How is that goalpost shifting? I'm leaving it where it has been, and pointing it out because you aren't seeing it. A specific autistic super fan who got upset about the coloring of Sonic's arms being portrayed as a character doing just that is different than showing people play WoW in an episode about WoW.
>>147016067You didn't specify it like that, you made it about how it would be "inappropriate to have Hitler or Dahmer being made fun of, which doesn't even make any sense when Hitler has been poked fun at in some way or another in a few cartoons either directly or through subtle caricatures
>>147009153Kek how come you autists always think it a clever idea to make far-fetched comparison to justify something>it's just like in le old days when they used to so and so, so it's le fine, you see!No, it isn't. Making references to Humphrey Bogart, Petet Lorre and other actors from classic Hollywood is literally the opposite of referencing fucking Chris-Chan
Chris chan really isn't special or unique. He's just really ugly, fat, and autistic, so people shit on him. He got popular because sonic was infamous on deviartart at the time and wasn't doing so great as a series. Shitting on furries and sonic fans, especially the obnoxious ones, was the norm back in the 00s and early 10s. There were worse people back then who just had the logic to drop out or rebrand and got away with it all. You can basically get away with being worse than chris if you act "based", progressive, or counterculture enough. Or have sufficient money, looks, connections, etc. If chris chan was also more attractive or was born a few years later, i doubt the culture around him wouldn't exist at all. Chris chan was at the wrong place in the wrong time, that's all.Elon, Keffals, or Asmongold are probably good examples for more self-aware versions of chris chan, who had better upbringings, targets of obsession that are more "respectable" than furry hedgehogs, or just deflect any criticism with politics as a scapegoat. The meta for lolcows these days is to just get really political, either right or left, and now you're untouchable and you get a defense league of people who defend you to no end. Just think about how many rich or famous people just got away with raping their mothers or worse doing this meta.For ugly autists who are just worse than chris, probably the guy who wants to fuck reshiram or one of the many smash bros/fighting game pedophiles.
>>147009514>>147011380honestly I don't think is even THAT insane, oddly enoughyeah he's crazy but he obviously shows a level of understanding towards his actions, at least enough awareness to make excuses and "act out" if it benefits himBiggest example of this was during his time before his court dates where he outright confirmed what he did to Barb and showed clarity towards everything with his classic excusesBut then as they got closer to making a decision, he was writing insane ramblings in his letters that were more unhinged than usual. Just unhinged enough to be declared just autistic and not criminally insane so he doesn't have to go to jail/asylum, and then he went back to his usual nonsense.It's kind of like how there's the theory Charles Manson wasn't insane and only feigned it during his trials because he knew he'd get the death penalty otherwise
>>147016160I made it about that because you made it about sympathy as if CWC's character is the issue here. Saying "I have no sympathy for rapists" is a tangent. You can read again and try to respond better now that you understand this better, if any confusion has been cleared up:>Chris has been a violent racist narcissist, but he's also zapped to the extreme in his head. Not just autism, but actual schizophrenia to the point of asking the officers arresting him if they were feeling anything from his imaginary Sonic friends punching them. As genuinely bad as he is, it really isn't right for a franchise like this to do that.
>>147016941I never made anything about sympathy ya weirdo
>>147017087>I feel no sympathy for rapistsMaybe this isn't you, but at least now you have better context.
>>147008871
>>147017230It's sad till you remember Chris is a product of their shitty parenting
To me, the moral of the Sonic fandom, including Chris, is the timeless lesson that Furries Are Bad.
>>147017334Yeah I feel like this was made in a moment of clarity when Bob realized how shitty he was as a person in general and thought it'd be different with Chris which probably explains why he actually """"tried"""" for a time
>>147017334>product of their shitty parentingHe was autistic, Anon. No matter how good of a parent you are, autistic kids are on a whole different level. They are emotionally and physically draining. Even if they start out as great parents, it slowly sets in that they will never lead a normal life now. The rest of their life will be spent looking after their autistic kid who cant take care of themselves. They know they dont get to look forward to seeing their kid do well in school, get a good job and start a family of their own. It drains out your very soul, and can ruin people.
>>147009046>Chris Chan was the only Sonic fan who had a problem with the blue armsYou underestimate the nitpicky hyper-specific character design autism of the fanbase. Last year alone there were weeks where they harped on topics like>the shape of Sonic's eyes>what it means for Sonic's blue to be slightly different>why the movie design couldn't possibly have tan arms>why Sonic's shoes need a specific shapeIf anything was an overt reference to Chris, it was the orange soda thing. The rest of this was just generic "comic geek/fanboy" jokes recycled from the 90s because the hack-ass writers of this show weren't actually as good as people for some reason insist.If you want a show that actually references Chris Chan and does it right, the president episode of Smiling Friends is the real deal.
>>147017601Chris literally only got like that because Bob and Barb didn't want people judging them for having an autistic kid, they were even given the resources to do so and they still refusedPlus they constantly spoiled Chris and always took his side on everything. Chris would just lie about how the principal and teachers at his school would abuse him just because he didn't want to go to school. So then he got homeschooled by his parents which probably just made things even worse.If he actually had normal parents that weren't total narcissists with their own baggage, Chris would have been a lot more high-functioning. And that's not even getting into Liquid Chris that just further proves itChris never stood a fucking chance
>>147013661Turns out you can get away with a lot when no one really cares how you make a show you’re contractually obligated to make 2 seasons of when the games that the show was supposed to supplement sucked. Also Knuckles and sticks were the best characters.
>>147008871People who work in American Animation are hateful spiteful retards.
>>147017749But, sometimes, they're funny
>>147010444>Not having a focus on animal charactersMario rides around on a fatass dinosaur.
>>147008871I'm going to say YES, but not because I think he should be off limits. Put simply I feel like acknowledging him at all is just giving him too much power and there are things, especially weird parts of fandom that are better off ignored. Which is something I feel like this current era has a hard time doing.
>>147019363He's only the focus of a sub series.I say a better example would be the whole Bowsette autism.
>>147008871Nah, it was hilarious
>>147009222>It's also even funnier now that we are older and we understand all the references.haha yea I was too young back then that was soooo long ago I was just a kiddo back then lol
>>147010548>>147010559does sonic have orange soda lore? or is that a chris chan thing?
>>147008871No, it was hilarious, fuck you.
>>147016355>references to Humphrey Bogart, Petet Lorre and other actors from classic HollywoodThe Treasure of the Sierra Madre came out in 1948, while 8 Ball Bunny came out in 1950. It's not like referencing a classic today, it's literally referencing a movie that was 2 years old at the time. There were plenty of references in Loony Tunes that are so dated you probably don't even know them as references to anything but to Loony Tunes itself.
>>147009911>The ONLY thing about Mark that’s remotely similar to Chris was the painting having the tan arms,And the hair cut. And the pedo glasses. And the polo shirt. (Striped or no.) They made him look just similar enough to have plausible deniability. Which of course, they did. But come on anon, don't be that guy. It's obvious that someone on the production team was perusing the Sonic fanbase for material (they referenced SonAmy for fuck's sake) and stumbled across Chris Chan. How could they not?No, he's not literally the same in terms of character, I'm sure that they knew they couldn't be THAT on the nose about it, but the look is just similar enough to make it hard to dismiss as a mere coincidence.
>>147009453Wut.
>>147009153had no idea this guy was retarded
>>147009453This is sadly hilarious
>>147017601Autism doesn't automatically set you up for failure at life, Chris isn't even that bad in that particular regard all things considered. The main problem is that his parents were old fucks that had no business raising him because they were hoarder slobs and never taught him discipline.
