Why does Chris feel the need to hashtag everything?
Most likely for exposure. He probably thinks it will get his posts on one of the lists where people are posting the hashtagged word, and people will see that he's talking about. I've noticed that Chris really wants to be a streamer, or internet personality, like he sees other people doing, where fans will like and post asspats, where all he gets is weens and trolls.
Chris's triumphant return to the comments section make sense if you think of it like that, he still desperately thinks he's a famous internet personality but can't understand why people are interested in him. He thinks there are all these "good people" out there that he should be talking to. He thinks that if posts something, he should open it up an hour later and have a ton of comments like "wow Chris, great take!" or "that's an amazing piece of art!", from people with cutesy anime girl avatars or something.
I'd say it's fucking late, but I just realised that no one's actually posted it here already. Huh.
Personally, it's just more of the "Chris is stuck in the 2000's, gathering all of his knowledge from South Park and Family Guy" shit that we all already knew. Still a funny tweet nonetheless.
I like these little tidbits of Chris talk, it rounds him out. While everyone thinks he's some savvy internet users, coding in HTML, knowing the ins and outs of YouTube or social media, he's really just poking around and lost when it comes to the mechanics of what he wants it to do.
I do like the "and friends" he managed to add in there. He most likely is talking about someone he's obsessed with, maybe talked to them and gotten like 3 short responses to in DMS, and now believes he's friends with them. Either that or he's adding that just to make it sounds like he has legitimate friends on the platforms.
