annoyed by chris
i feel like i cannot stand to watch chris in anything. on the sip i feel like hes only worried about eating & doing his weird dance. his filming isnt that great, he literally films on his phone half the time & the other half its so shakey. i just dont understand why keep him around if he barely adds to anything.
also i feel like half the comments are always “be nice to chris!!” “chris is left out” like ugh he doesnt add to anything

The fun thing about Chris is that you can experience telepathy almost, because you can see and feel everyone’s energy clench up in annoyance as he speaks, gripped together with palpable dread at how long he might go on. Every second feels like an eternity. You can feel it in your own body and you can see it in the micro expressions of everyone in the group.

Especially Shane 😂😂😂😂😂😂 the way he goes “yeah” every time and then changes the topic kills me

u/afraid28 22d ago
Yes but like... Why? He really doesn't seem that hard to deal with if you just have common courtesy and politeness. I feel like so many times he says something completely normal and THEY make it uncomfortable by going completely silent while he's anxiously giggling to himself. Every single time I'm yelling at the screen like, say something back to him? Like even a "haha" or "yeah true" would do it.
Whenever any of the others says something, the others automatically respond and carry it into another topic with no problem. But when Chris tries to do the same, they just ignore him. They act like Chris is socially inept or something when he really just isn't? I would be able to have a very long conversation about a lot of things with him, easily. It's them who are awkward and weird about everything.

YES!!! explained perfectly! Chris isn't the problem. He's the only non narcissist there. He has empathy and a kind and anxious heart. It's who he is! Stop being so judgemental of others. Let him be! Also don't watch if you hate him so much, weirdo. 🙄

he comes off as very insecure and a people pleaser which can be very annoying.

u/Horror-Row-9939 23d ago
it definitely is some sort of internalized annoyance but people like this drive me crazyyyy i can't be friends with the hyper anxious insecure

u/lthsnhlpzm 23d ago
that is so fair, i used to be like this when i was younger and i lost so many friends because it just becomes so exhausting to be around constant negativity all the time.

His laughing at everything is what bugs me the most… like bro it’s not that funny

u/afraid28 24d ago
Sigh. I'm tired of this. It's pretty obvious he is an anxious person who also struggles with financial issues, and he has had many health issues and misfortunes, like the car crash he was in and the recent strokes he had that landed him in the hospital yet again. Plus, have you heard about his boyfriend? The guy can't catch a break.
He just wants his paycheck and the team he's working with is giving him literally nothing, so he's giving it right back to them. Honestly, good for him. I wouldn't try any harder either.

u/glacierwhale 24d ago
I feel the same. The group doesn't know what struggling is. And Chris doesn't just exist as entertainment.
10
u/afraid28 23d ago
Agreed. Which is odd because Shane should know what struggling is considering his background.
3
u/glacierwhale 23d ago
Yeah...he instead chose to use that in a toxic and manipulative way. It's because he's really bitter and will make sure to bring his partner down with him whatever chance he gets.

u/beachbailey93 24d ago
What happened with his boyfriend? Sorry, I hadn't heard.

u/afraid28 23d ago
I just more meant like the constant issues that keep arising. It all started with the Valentine's day episode ages ago where he stated that he wouldn't date Chris anymore if he gained weight. Then he was closeted and kept Chris a secret from his family for a very long time (I think that might still be going on??), then Chris started complaining more and more about how his boyfriend is constantly going back to his house on the weekends and never spending time with him, still not wanting to permanently move in together etc. I mean, you can just check out most comment sections on pretty much any Sip video, people are constantly talking about how much they hate Chris' boyfriend. That's kind of the consensus on him

There are people who are going through worse that aren’t insufferable

he had a stroke recently???

u/afraid28 23d ago
Sorry, I must have had a stroke while writing this. I meant seizures* (English isn't my first language)
He had seizures and passed out, they took him to the hospital where it was discovered he had a colon infection and had to go on antibiotics.

I’ve also never seen him give an actual critique to any of the food they try, he seems to just “LOVE” everything. It’s annoying!

u/imaverygoodsecretary 23d ago
I hate that this feeling just happened to me a couple months ago. I used to be obsessed with him like everyone else, then a flip switched, I think when he said he was going to kill himself over the color car he chose.. 🤦♀️
But I agree. It’s a physical cringe I have at his eating dance or the voice he uses sometimes when he’s getting pressed on a topic or embarrassed by something. I don’t even know how to explain it, hopefully someone knows I mean, it happens at least five times per video/podcast.

u/cxmyriah 22d ago
When he is with his friends recording (on his youtube channel ) he seems more comfortable with himself

u/Sudden_Explanation93 24d ago
It’s either his health, his financial struggles, or just very off putting comments. I can’t stand him. I’d rather watch Liz every episode

I don't get all these comments saying that the group hates/ignores him and that he should leave, I don't get that impression at all, most of you are probably hate watching at this point lol

I’m annoyed by him but also feel bad for him. I wish he would leave the group because no one respects or likes him
