when chris ate that pizza, he looked like a 4 year old. i bet thats exactly how he ate at lunch with his gal pals, rocking back and forth, opening his eyes real wide, gulping food down, and chewing with his mouth open.

Hmmm I guess a better way to phrase my question is;

Could a trained professional social worker teach Chris enough so that he could function as a semi-independent adult?

Or is he too far down the path to be saved by anyone?

Again, Chris can't be taught. He can definitely become independent, but you'd need to train him, like a dog. Like really, almost ring-a-bell, salivate type training.
 
He'd complain about the lack of blue hedgehogs and then demand somebody make a sonichu mod for it. Assuming he just doesn't rage quit after getting killed within the first thirty seconds.
 
Could Chris have been seriously bullied at Manchester High?
I know there's the recent revelations about "jerks" stealing his stuff, but is it possible there was anything really bad?
Bad like jocks pushing him and calling him a "smelly fag", throwing food ( not pennies) at him in the lunchroom, stuffing him into lockers, giving him wedgies and swirlies, stuff like that.
He never let on how bullied he was. Could there be any more to it?

I love the PC game Team Fortress 2 and I often wonder what would happen if he were a fan of that game.

He never plays any multiplayer games (or FPS for that matter), possibly due to the fact that the skill level of an actual human would be greater than a computer enemy. Based on his PSN spending I'd say he'd love Steam, but is too technologically inept to get it to work.

While he was picked on, he never suffered any of the stereotypical bullying like wedgies or swirlies or being shoved into lockers. So in his mind, because he never experienced that, he wasn't bullied.

I dunno, it was bad enough to make him cry on a regular basis according to those revelations.
 
Could Chris even fit in a high school locker? That's not a fat joke, every locker I ever had in high school was so small I couldn't even fit my backpack or textbooks in.

I think it depends on the high school. I know in junior high we had lockers that were almost as tall as we were, but when we got to high school we only got lockers that were half as tall.

Concidering Chris cites high school as being the best years of his life, I doubt it could have been that bad.

Or maybe he only hated community collage cause no-one was willing to put up with his bullshit and teachers didn't hesitate to fail him if he fucked up. Wich he probably did a lot of given what we know about his time at PVCC.

I can't speak for everyone, but at the school I went to, the specials being bullied was a rare occurance.
 
The impression I get re high school bullying for Chris is that, like most bullying, it was emotional rather than physical. This leads to a few possibilities:

  1. Chris' massive ego will not permit him to acknowledge that he was ever in a position of weakness (that would jeopardize his role as the TRUE and HONEST guardian of his alternate reality);
  2. Chris is emotionally vulnerable to the point that he has suppressed these memories (consciously or subconsciously);
  3. Chris, being himself and being autistic, was too much of an oblivious twat to realize that he was being treated poorly (less likely but possible among autistic teenagers).

Not sure I agree with the first one. Chris loves to be pitied, and admitting certain weaknesses. He's fine admitting as often and publicly as possible he's a virgin with rage, that he's been trolled over and over again, that he has to bandage his moms holey buttocks, and loads of other stuff. He might have a massive ego, but if he can gain something by admitting a weakness (like china), he'll do it.

I think it's more the second point you make, plus, because he wasn't bullied in a stereotypical TV way (swirlies, thrown in lockers, beaten up), he doesn't think he was really bullied at all.

This. One of the gal pals said in a recent email leak that he was picked on and had the books slapped out of his hands, although someone else (Alec maybe?) had mentioned before that since Chris didn't experience the bullying he's seen in cartoons (ex: getting put in a locker, wedgies, getting beat up) he didn't believe he was bullied. I think he was probably either oblivious he was being picked on or has white-washed those memories. Probably both.

I'd say all the above.
 
Speaking of PVCC/ getting kicked out, what exactly is the sort of thing "you'd expect to hear a black person say in church?"
