Life after prison - What happens if Chris is One Day released from prison

[A-№1]

What happens to a house if the bank looks at it, gets disgusted and says they don’t want to bother with it?

They'll bother with it. Banks don't stay in business by letting money slip through their fingers. I believe the bare land value is worth more than the outstanding principle. They'll have their own appraiser "value" it at the outstanding principle and fees and sell it "as is". Whoever buys it will have to deal with the cleanup, but probably still get a good deal.

If you were a sociologist, it could be interesting to talk to people around Ruckersville and find out if the typical person even knows Chris exists or know him as anything more than the weird guy who comes to their workplace every week or so.

That's assuming you can get them to talk to you. We here on the forums can afford to study Chris in detail because we mostly have the luxury of being very far away from him. People who have to deal with him in person and on a near daily basis probably don't want to spend any more time thinking about Chris than they absolutely have to¹. Also the majority of their experience with outsiders asking about Chris is probably with weens, so they're likely to view anyone asking about Chris as nearly as big a pain in the ass as Chris himself.

Christ, on google image search if you just search for ruckersville, no other terms, the *SECOND RESULT* (and the first actual photo) takes you to the CWCki.

I suspect you're getting targeted search results. On a fresh install using a clean IP, Chris doesn't show up until the second page of results, and that's the CWCki page on Ruckersville itself. He's also only the 13th image result, and that's a fairly innocuous picture in front of the Ruckersville historical sign that someone who doesn't recognize Chris would not look twice at. Mostly it's pics of homes from real estate sites.

More like fuckersville.

Motherfuckersville.

¹ There are surprisingly few people from the greater Charlottesville region here on these forums. There's a reason for that.

Worst case is demolition of current building and building a new. Nothnig big TBH.

Also a smart flipper (or stupid random guy who needs a house) can just clean that part of mess that is visible without checking live inside walls. Not a rare case.

Could be IP-targeted. I did the searches in a clean environment in a fresh browser with zero cookies.

That historical sign image does take you to the CWCki though.

I didn't say that the non-image search returned Chris on the first page for just "ruckersville" though. But if you start adding other Chris-adjacent (but not explicitly related) search terms e.g. "ruckersville ban" (no quotes), some of them do lead you to the CWCki, Kiwi farms, or the CWC Reddit. Ruckersville doesn't revolve around Chris, but there are side effects to him being the most famous resident.

I get these kind of results to varying degrees in a clean browser, even going through a proxy, duckduckgo, brave search, etc.

FWIW I don't get any web search results for Chris at all when searching "ruckersville va", but the very first image result is him in front of the sign for me as well. Amusingly, though, the results for the suggested search "ruckersville va famous residents" is almost all Chris.

If you were a sociologist, it could be interesting to talk to people around Ruckersville and find out if the typical person even knows Chris exists or know him as anything more than the weird guy who comes to their workplace every week or so. In 2022, is it even possible to be a village idiot anymore or has the sense of community deteriorated to the extent that even someone as bizarre as Chris fails to develop an identity as a local character?

I've been through Ruckersville before, and matter of factly asked about five people about Chris - at the Sheetz near his house, the Goodwill store, and at the Target. The Sheetz people definitely knew about him, they didn't say much but grinned when I asked. The woman at the Goodwill knew of the Chandlers, but mostly "his mother", only the woman at Target seemed to not know anything about him.

I think the issue with the Village Idiot identity is that Chris really hasn't become a fixture in Ruckersville, to the point where people take more than a casual notice of him. For whatever reason, every time I go through Ruckersville, there's always these methed out, shirtless dudes walking around the main intersection, that look like they just hang out there all day. Chris is more just stopping at places and having short interactions before scurrying back to Branchland Court.

Maybe back when Chris was free to just wander around with his attraction sign, and just loiter for hours inside stores back in the day, more people would know about him, but these days, I would imagine most people know that there is a guy named "Chris Chandler" who lives in town, who raped his mother and caused a tantrum in court. His story in the local rag was in the top five for three weeks, so there's no doubt that people in town did read that and what he did.

It's a weird juxtaposition from what Chris believes back in the Greene County Conspiracy days, where the entire town allegedly hated the Chandlers, and were making huge moves to fuck them over behind their backs. If it was that bad, the Chandlers would receive a lot more negative attention when they went into town, but minus Chris's tardouts at the big box stores, they didn't seem to have any qualms about going into town and letting people cook their food for them, or local garages fixing their cars. You'd think if the town really honestly hated Chris and the Chandlers, Chris would sperg out more about negative things directed at him.

It probably is. I've gotten some weird search results from hotel IPs.

only the woman at Target seemed to not know anything about him.

Target has a relatively high employee turnover rate. She may not have been there long enough to get the Chris Experience yet.

I don't think the town hates them so much as just wants them to go away.

That's pretty interesting, did the Goodwill woman say anything about the crap or volume of crap Barb buys there?

Ruckersville doesn't have a Target, and they didn't get a Walmart until well into Christory (which Chris got promptly banned from). A lot of Chris' former haunts are in Charlottesville. Chris is the Ruckersville village idiot, not the Charlottesville village idiot, as there are a lot more people there (though he's still a prominent idiot). The combined population of 150,000 in the Independent City of Charlottesville and Arbemarle County, which is effectively Charlottesville.

(Explanation: A small part of Charlottesville acts as a county equivalent due to a quirk of Virginia political structure. In most states, cities are incorporated parts of a surrounding county, with the larger one being the county seat. But in Virginia long ago, cities were given special status as county-equivalents. Normally, when a city needs to grow, it just annexes parts of the county it's a part of. In Virginia though they can't do that as it's basically one county annexing parts of another county. Counties don't want to lose revenue, which mostly comes from property taxes, so they almost never agree to another county taking land from theirs. So cities wind up stuck in their boundaries from over a century ago and a new city, often of a similar name, winds up encircling them, becoming the vast majority of the "city".)

Employees at places in Charlottesville that Chris has been long-banned at probably have never encountered him. He is probably well-known by employees at the Ruckersville businesses he's allowed in like Food Lion, and probably the Ruckersville Walmart since I think they unbanned him. Chris stands out in a small community of 1,200 people.

Target has a relatively high employee turnover rate. She may not have been there long enough to get the Chris Experience yet.

He may still be banned there.

No, not really, just that they "knew" her. I didn't want to press, I just wanted to know if they were known around town. Really though I should have pressed the Sheetz people more.

Ruckersville doesn't have a Target

Charlottesville and Ruckersville share the same "strip" along a highway and I just assume it's in the same area. Those two towns are very close to one another.

 

[A-№1]

Since when has that ever stopped him? Ban evasion is just part of the Chris Experience.

Those two towns are very close to one another.

Ruckersville barely even qualifies as a town. It's mostly just a name on a map because cartographers don't like blank spaces, and they have to write something in that slot on the census form.

Regarding being banned from businesses, I worked a few years in retail or similar public facing businesses as summer jobs and I genuinely cannot remember being aware of anyone being "banned." I'm sure it happened at some point to some person but it wasn't something the staff were generally made aware of when it did.

Maybe my experience is an outlier, but it makes me think the amount of trouble Chris caused these businesses was quite high to be met with so many bans. Especially since these bans seem to have been enforced since I believe most "bans" are put in place just so a store has the threat of trespassing if they shoplift or do something else harder to prove again

Google refers to it as "Census-designated place" so you're right on the money. This is a "town" with a whopping 1200 people living there. I assume it wouldn't be too hard to enforce a ban in a place that small, even in larger chain stores like Walmart.

 

[Ophelia]

Could he be banned from the entire town?

 

[AnOminous]

Could he be banned from the entire town?

It doesn't seem that should be legal, but Len Shaner managed it.

 

[A-№1]

Could he be banned from the entire town?

Yes. Traditionally this involves a bucket of hot tar, some feathers, and a fence rail. The old ways are often still the best ways.

 

[NaggotFigger]

Could he be banned from the entire town?

This gave me potential thunks about how the manager of the entire town would see Chris. I'll guess he'll get banned from entering into the town, leaving him just nothing.

I think when chris gets outta jail, he'll drop his "jesus larping" and go back to normal, well as normal as someone like chris can be lol. he'll likely double down on the dimensional merge hyper dimension neptunia shit and in typical chris fashion try and pretend that.

fun fact:
there is actually a name for the particular sin of pretending to be Jesus within the Christian religion, its called "the abomination of desolation" and chris has been committing this blasphemous sin for almost a year now lol

I doubt it. He's too far attatched to the idea of being some messianic figure that's been opressed by the rest of the world, and being the only one that can solve all of the world's ills. He's larping as Jesus because he's the most well-known "misunderstood hero", which Chris relates to.

 

[Ophelia]

The only ways I can see him dropping it is if he gets bored and moves on to something else, or if it doesn’t get him the kind of attention he wants.

That said, the trans thing hasn’t got him the kind of attention he wants and he hasn’t got bored of it yet, so who knows. People have been predicting he’d drop it for years.
