Last I saw he’d tossed the notion of shopping for actual parts in the garbage after his would-be anonymous benefactor fell through. It was always a scam, at best he actually was going to have someone send him a computer while he was trying to angle for more cash and they bitched out.
Unfortunately, as much as I would like to believe he is still whaling in it, I think he is telling the truth about his timeline with dokkan.
While it's reasonable to include it as a possible contributing factor, Phil is indeed dumb enough that it's far from certain that he has thought of this. I do think he probably has, based on his apparent fear of consequences more serious than public embarrassment, but that doesn't change the fact that we're talking about a guy who really was dumb enough to name his Champions account like so, and then act like the idea of him doing so is illogical. In front of the people he KNOWS are aware of his psychological limitations.
Adding to this, a big thing with Phil is, outside of holding grudges, anything that happens a few days ago is more or less forgotten. Just like how he can't look more than a few days into the future. Phil's bankruptcy is nothing more than a footnote in Phil's "guy I used to be" narrative. I imagine Phil stopped caring about it roughly a week or so after it cleared. The only time it's relevant in his life is with credit card applications. But the lying part, like all of Phil's other lies, is basically forgotten about once he's finished lying. It's one of the big reasons Phil is so bad at lying and sometimes contradicts himself in the very same sentence. Gun to his head, or hammer to his Champions account, I don't think he'd be able to accurately recall any of the numbers on his bankruptcy.
He already had that idea himself. He said when he was denying it the other day, that even if he showed his accounts detractors would just say he's using a different or fake account. So it's not some super secret, complicated plan. Even with how dumb he is, it's the first thing most people would think of if they had to trick someone into believing they didn't have a whale account.
I hear fast food places are now hiring anyone with a pulse.
On the Farms, the best pig is a starved pig.
He never said which transactions are fake but that's largely because he hasn't said anything about them specifically. It's obvious which ones he wants you to believe are fake though, the ones that show his massive waste of money. He can't afford to go into too much detail as there is no explanation for them that doesn't make him look like a complete fuck up or scumbag. Any "explanation" he could come up with wouldn't be able to explain why he allowed trolls to steal roughly 40k in just over a year (more than he spent on taxes, bills or his mortgage in the same time period) and he can't just admit it without admitting that the trolls were right all along.
Its just speculation, he was way too specific on his mumbling-words-style lie, these were the only major goku and piccolo cards, although he said "goku OR piccolo", because piccolo never had a major unit by himself in this game that could be bought the way he described it.
I mean at least that game will praise him even during low tip days.
Reminder that his password used to be mrstupid1. It’s like he knows he’s dumb but can’t solve the problem.
More like in his mind if he ever gets hacked he gets to call the hacker stupid as some sort of last-laugh jab by proxy.
That showed his laziness even more so than his stupidity, pun totally intended.
He wanted the other players to know that he is the guy, the big youtube streamer with a 15 year legacy, when they saw his name on the leader board.
He keeps saying he will look for an entry level job. I wouldnt be surprised if that was the phrasing his dad used during the 10 year plan conversation. He's going to be in for a rude awakening if he ever tries to put into place this plan.
