DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[N0thingICanDo]

So its true that DSP"s true name is Isaac Heimler.

"Yes Jew, you are right Jew, my name is Isaac Heimler, now show me the oven Jew!"

An example I've actually encountered: Someone who, shortly after the whole Fukushima disaster, didn't know/realize circles were the shape defined by "distance <= x", and consequently found it utter bullsh#t that the nuclear "danger zones" were circles and not squares. Imagine living your life in a world where all those things that to you make perfect sense, actually don't; Where the way that things work and are perfectly accepted look irrational, even stupid - to you.

Queue joke about politicians and bureaucracy and all of us living in that world, but I personally have a very hard time imagining living with that kind of worldview and not going completely insane from everything being, supposedly, itself insane.

Except with Phil it's most often a defense mechanism, or just needing to feel superior. Sure, there are SOCIAL things he doesn't understand, but it doesn't cause him frustration because he's too much of a misanthrope to be bothered. He gets annoyed at the prodding about his lack of friends, not his lack of friends.

You can see this in the context, whenever he calls someone names, 99% of the time, they made a fool out of him, and when someone/something didn't, you can clearly see he's just on another "I'm better" kick. The rest of the time, he's just dumb, and a hermit, with very little life experience. His brain is fucked, but not in that way, I don't think.

On another note, that old Christmas vlog really goes to show how Phil only ever gets lazier, and cuts more things out of his life the more it tells him he's a stupid asshole and needs to change. I mean try to imagine him and Katherine decorating a Christmas tree today, having a conversation, even one like that. It's insane the degree to which Phil makes his world smaller and less detailed, year after year, in an attempt to constantly prune every reminder of what an idiotic douchebag he has been his whole life.

What a fucking imbecile. I don't care that he doesn't value certain things, he's dumb to be that way. In fact, it's the dumbest thing about him, kicking so many things to the curb rather than just face being a cunt like a fucking man. He doesn't even have to stop being a dick, just be based about it for once in his sorry life. Let the chat have some life to it, let the neighbors see what you are, who gives a fuck what they say? If you're going to suck, at least have the decency to have a spine too.

I wouldn't be surprised if it were the complete opposite. Mind you, that doesn't mean that all this activity would be efficient/effective, but have you never noticed how stupid people sometimes get hung up on perfectly mundane stuff, because while you've instantly understood how/why it is that way and moved on, they haven't ?

I have no experience whatsoever in that field, but I could totally see (some) dumb people being more mentally active (Again, not necessarily in a good way) than their brighter peers simply because everything is complicated, everything is "intellectually oppressive" to them - everything is Kafkaesque, because I want to sound fancy. Kind of in the way that narcissists (And there has often been talk of Phil being one) are far from emotionless, and on the contrary are slaves to their own strong, negative emotions.

TBH I think there's a decent chance he's experiencing higher than expected brain atrophy due to his lifestyle choices, a big one being his lack of physical activity. Studies suggest that one of the key ways to slow down "brain shrinkage" is with exercise. Dude literally goes out once a week.

I still suspect some sort of lasting damage from the alcoholism combined with long term sleep deprivation as the primary explanation for Phil's continuing mental degradation. Regions of the brain affected by alcohol consumption can become permanently damaged in alcoholics.

Then again, Phil was always an idiot, even in his younger years, so it's difficult to differentiate low IQ from actual brain atrophy.

Not only that. He has:

- Gin consumption
- Lack of movement
- Lack of challenges to his mind

The brain is like a muscle. It needs training, at least from time to time. But what does he do? Video games where he gets handheld as soon as anything that could be described as a "challenge" comes up. He also has no or barely any social interactions that would give him immediate feedback of what he did or what he said.
The result is what we see today. And with age the decline is coming automatically. The question is always from which height the decline starts. And in Phils case, it cannot be very high.

And Phil's lack of proper brain training goes back his entire life. So yeah, his plummet wasn't from a great height, but it's still going to reach a significant depth before he finally croaks, because the decline doesn't shorten, the lower the peak was. It just moves the same length bar down a few notches, reaching further down into Hell.

Which is how I know we can look forward to Grumpy Old Phil having a LOT of fun dealing with the fallout of Young Phil repeatedly slipping out of him. He's only going to gain LESS control over that, not more, because he's not going to stop drinking or being lazy.

I would argue it's long term wolverine deprivation.

If there's one thing to learn from Phil, he's what happens when you go full NEET and completely atrophy yourself. If you're a shut-in NEETbux autist, just go walk a few miles per day or drive somewhere to be around other beings and see the world. I feel the difference when I'm stuck indoors a few days because I'm sick or bad weather or something, and that rut can be a bitch to get out of. Phil's been stuck in this for about 7 years now, and entrenched himself in some of the most toxic, self-indulgent online communities you can.

 

[TheGreatWhiteNorth]

Phil saying WE need to do some "serious grinding" to wrap up Lost Judgement in order to make way for newer games.

Translation: He's bored.

 

[Wasabi Panda]

Now I joke that the line between reality and fantasy is very blurred for phil when he plays videogames when he often complains about something in the most unrealistic fantasy setting not being realistic. Like last night he complained that it's not realistic that you can kick the paint the magical floating hands from that chick in KoF was using.

But I mean, dude. that twitter poll was content fodder for his morning zoo radio show totally mature adult pre-stream pod cast and he's using it to judge when people decorate their trees with because in "American culture, i.e. like um old school christmas movies"

phil..

PP...

bubby..

Movies aren't real you tit, just like yakuza isn't a accurate realistic representation of japanese culture. I would argue, ok? ok, that umm it's like you're 5.

EDIT cause it's fits this post...this obsession of trying to show how mature he is over the girls club. It's a made up situation in a fictional story that takes place in a fictional world with fictional characters. He's acting like this is some real thing he has to sit through and experience first hand like he's really struggling to separate reality and fantasy.

It's like in his drunken stooper, and my god is he shitfaced again, some of those close ups he could barely open his eyes he can't remove himself from the game and just have fun with something stupid or just skip it entirely.

PP, dude, it's either that or you're running so hard from repressed feeling it's Run Piggy Run.

"Today is just going to be a lot of repetitive boring shit and very cringy".

... a standard DSP stream, then?

 

[PyroAlert]

I sometimes wish I was as devoid of self-awareness as Phil is. Life would be so much easier to bumble through.

 

[Philbo Beggins]

Phil just admitted on his BegCast that he doesn't speak to pretty much any of his relatives or they're dead.

Well who the fuck was he "schmoozing" with at his wedding then? That's right, nobody.

Keep track of your own lies, pig.

 

[DZoomer]

I don't know, mate. I think self-awareness is like pain. You might think that you'd enjoy not feeling pain, but you'd probably end up dead from some internal hemorrhage because you've broken 3 ribs and don't feel anything bad, so you don't go to the hospital.

Likewise, being self-aware allows us to learn how to have social skills, how to have a better public persona, how to be more introspective etc. Without self-awareness, you'd end up like Phil: friendless loser, hermit with atrophied muscles, almost retarded and incapable of improving yourself.

Phil's been stuck in this for about 7 years now, and entrenched himself in some of the most toxic, self-indulgent online communities you can.

I would argue it has been a lot longer than 7 years, because even though he wasn't a hermit back in the FGC days, you'll notice all the stories from that period involve him having a lot more to say to a computer screen than to someone's face, whether it was toxic or not. He wasn't just a coward back then, he was disinclined to engage with people in any way because he just didn't want a conversation, whether it was going to end badly or not. He's uncomfortable face-to-face even when the person is ignorant of his toxic nature. He would never come up to Dorito Pope at a convention or something and try to get on his good side and exploit his ignorance, only on Twitter, where they don't have to be in physical proximity.

I say this because so many years ago Phil, clearly didn't know his personality was going to earn him the worst rep possible for someone who doesn't talk to many people. And he also let it be known that when he last worked a 9-5, he was known for his rocking habit, demonstrating that he didn't need a bad rep to be uncomfortable around other people. I wouldn't be surprised if the reason he refused to hang out when Leanna had friends over was almost entirely so they wouldn't see him doing that, because he's clearly sensitive about it now. Just like he is with a lot of things he used to let loose with before it bit him in the ass.

Phil saying WE need to do some "serious grinding" to wrap up Lost Judgement in order to make way for newer games.

Translation: He's bored.

What newer games is Phil going to play that necessitates clearing his plate at any point, let alone now? Anything he SHOULD get on, he won't, and everyone knows that he dawdles until he just wants something over with, or rushes through it because he wants it over with as quickly as possible. Neither is dictated by logic, always some ulterior motive he's never honest about.

Even the tards notice this, and Phil still thinks he's fooling people.

I sometimes wish I was as devoid of self-awareness as Phil is. Life would be so much easier to bumble through.

For you maybe, but Phil isn't doing a good job of that at all. If he was, he would be enjoying a second vest streak by now instead of working his way towards literally putting a timer on the screen displaying how many minutes the paypigs have left before he starts bitching about tips not appearing. Because that's definitely in the cards, Phil is clearly done with one whale carrying the stream, he straight-up said it, and they haven't budged.

 

[Wasabi Panda]

did he go to buzzfeed for pre-stream content? This best worst list sounds like something buzzfeed would buy from a content aggregator

 

[gaarashatan]

DSP's old Christmas specials contained some truly autistic moments. Here's a few screenshots:

This musical/dance moment at the end of his 2012 special is truly something to witness. His home-defense hatchets even make an appearance!

The holidays really used to bring out Phil's true inner manchild like nothing else.

Edit: Well, they still do, but...you get what I mean.

what a mess that place is. dude lives like a slob

 

[Pandalee’s Tits]

At least he’s consistent. Sloppy finances, terrible grooming, messy house. I bet that leased BMW was filled with trash.

 

[capefear56]

Perfect timing.

I usually don't like troll tips, but if you can get him to point at something like that then fuck it, have your dollar you street corner panhandler.

 

[Organized Derailment]

Phil's talking about all the sex he can get from his wife. What are we supposed to say to that? Nice?

Just because you have a woman in your life that you love, doesn't mean other women instantly become unattractive. God forbid you chill out and just have fun with the silly in-game dating stuff.
