DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[Lord_Point]

My favorite part, and this is something he does a lot, is that he admits having been an asshole, but he makes sure to dress it up. He says he was a workaholic (laughable notion), and glosses over the actual reasons he was (and is) a complete bastard. Like racism, phony perversion, spending like an idiot, childish insults at developers when he sucks, stupid lies, the list goes on.

I personally enjoy that he is too retarded and drunk to stick to one story and keeps pulling whatever out of his ass that he thinks makes him look the best in that moment. This new story arc that everything was just an act and only morons didnt get it really flies in the face of his previous excuses about his behaviors.

 

[QuestionMark_]

Like how can DSP from all people call someone "attention seeking loser"? All these reaction videos are just that - attempt at gathering more attention not only from the turbo-wheelchairs that still follow him, but from detractors as well.

 

[Martys_not_smarty]

He just donest like black people, thats really all his political stance amounts to here.

you know if I had the similar experience from what it appeared from his days doing live tournies I'd probably have a similar sentiment. Just look up the compilations by crowbcat and those live events look like a fucking nature documentary about baboons in mating season and there's only walk of life at those events doing the howling and posturing and daaaayyyuuuuummmmm-ing.

It’s crazy how Phil has no self awareness at all. Everything he says in his copium segment about EvilAJ reflects back onto himself.

1. He is still obsessing over me even after all these years
2. His segment pigsplaining why EvilAJ destroys Phil at online street fighter, including coming up with a bunch of excuses
3. You would have thunk a family member would have reached out to EvilAJ from seeing his online output

Also, it’s always fun to see Phil try to explain what trolls think. Especially the part where he says that current day trolls are bad and previous trolls weren’t as bad.

Thought experiment: what would 2009, 2012, 2015, 2020 Phil think about current Phil?

@DiabeticSP here's a more complete list of his earnings for all of his recent events, now including super chats. The "Combined" column is a sum of gross tips and gross super chats.

As much as it saddens me that Phil will probably never get his deserved punishment, the fact he will continue to get more and more deranged as time goes on makes that fact tolerable. He is going no where and only has a faceless dwindling audience to ramble to, and every ramble to essentially a peptalk to convince himself that he is right and everyone else is wrong.

 

[Gramh]

Oof, $250 for the day after he talked it up so hard. No wonder he was salty today.

It’ll just be a slow fade…he’ll be 50 having to hustle for 40-50k.

He was def pushing the holiday marathons…dudes hoping for the big tards to come out.

It's Weapon time! Taking bets on how long it takes from Phil to rage to go into hand holding.

Edit: He had the right idea for equipping the Luck+ Materia to help with dodges; as the only thing he really needs to fear from Emerald (aside the timer) is the Aire Tam Storm attack; which will kill all of his characters if it hits. However it can be dodged, and boosting Luck can help with that. Still expecting Phil to flip shit when all three of his characters get hit with 9999 though.

 

[Corpun]

Is that spider man laughing meme going to become a regular part of his OBS set up? I actually am glad it is because he is such a boomer he can't just play the audio but needs his free meme clip to play to get the laugh going.

 

[EmpGulcasa]

As much as I would have enjoyed AJ striking the pig, I can understand why he didn't. It's easy to say "just do it cuck" when it's not your time, youtube channel and potentially money on the line. I'm of the mind that trolls need to be way more ruthless with DSP, but crying when someone doesn't do what you yourself aren't doing either is a fucking beta move, so shut the fuck up.

 

[Elescondido]

Today TIHYDP copium segment is really interesting , because shows he understands why people dont like his streams :
-He puts zero effort into it
-Everything he is challenged by the game he gets mad
-Only cares about beating the game

The thing is that all of this still applies to current Phil, he can only acknowledge his flaws when he feels like he has a shield in this case " i changed, i'm not like that anymore"

 

[antinew]

Phil needs drama to survive. Without drama, there's no eyeballs on him, no contributions from dents. It's extremely laughable when he claims that all he wants is the trolls to stop bothering him and let him have his "chill, fun streams" - because clearly he wouldn't survive without the trolls constantly highlighting his bad behavior. Whether he is self-aware enough to realize this or not is questionable.

No one can punish Phil more than himself, every action ,every word fucks him over. All these actions have earned him an audience of retards and people mocking him, I can't think of a worse hell than stagnating in my own rotten brain juices while retards like Derich tell me about VA's in a shit game I hate.

Seeing his degrading sanity is probably the most interesting case study we'll ever see. Like that hoard behind him represents his money, but notice there's no love or genuine fan stuff he put there bar that Sonic figure. He doesn't even deserve swift painful karma, rot to rot.

On the other hand I do feel sorry for Jasper, no animal deserves to be in a hoarder shithole with the mentally ill....

Phil and self-awareness go together like Phil's ears and headphones.

It's crazy that's he's survived being a bad content creator for nearly a decade. The wheels started falling off a decade ago.

You hear that? All of our jobs are on thin ice and we could be laid off at any moment just like Phil! Straight from the mouth of the guy who hasn't worked in 15 years and was fired from almost every single gig he's ever had.

That alone is telling on what type of worker Phil was when he was employed. Guaranteed the reason he was laid off 'for no reason' from every job he had was one of the following.

• Being an annoying little shit who mouthed off to and about management whenever he felt slighted.
• General ineptitude and inability to follow instruction. What do you mean im supposed to greet customers, no one told me how to do that.
• Did bare minimum at best, nothing at worst at his workplaces.
• Felt entitled to everything regardless at what point in his life each job was. He deserved thise raises dood, not that asshole try hard who put in overtime.
• Sucked up to everyone slightly higher up than him like the bitch he is before talking behind their back about them.

 

[Kheapathic]

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't the greatest strategist when I first went through FF7, but in my defense I was also like 13 years old. The difference is, I learned how shit worked when going through the game; Phil is 50 hours in, literally at the end, and he's still acting like he doesn't understand how this shit works or calling it dumb. Yes Phil, dual casting Knights of the Round costs 500mp, which is over half of the max of 999; it's not dumb, it's called balancing, so you can't just chain shit like you want to.

Mother-fucker says he's not doing significant damage to Emerald, meanwhile every cast of Knights of the Round is doing over 100k damage. Go fuck yourself Phil, go back to grade school and learn to count.

This new story arc that everything was just an act and only morons didnt get it really flies in the face of his previous excuses about his behaviors.

And falls flat because no one believes that, which is why he's having to pigsplain it in the first place. And can't stop insulting people as he does it, either, betraying his real feelings. It's one of the major clues from early in the Champions saga, when NotDSP would say "a bunch of idiots think I'm some streamer". Why would they automatically be "idiots" to some random person who doesn't understand WTF is going on? They wouldn't. Only Phil would do that.

He will never understand that to convince people, he has to stop calling them names.

It’s crazy how Phil has no self awareness at all. Everything he says in his copium segment about EvilAJ reflects back onto himself.

1. He is still obsessing over me even after all these years

Phil isn't wrong when he says that people obsess over him, but he's the one who is worse off from not being able to stop discussing his critics. He would have the upper hand by now if he had comprehended that years ago.

Phil mentioning concern his family should have is probably the greatest projection on his part ever. Absolute god tier, and if he were more cunning and brave, I would credit him as having planned that. But he didn't, he's just being a hypocrite, as usual.

And his comparisons of trolls is based entirely on the fact that at a certain point, his behavior worsened enough for him to have increasingly bigger things to hide over time. The focus DID go from his awful gameplay to his awful personality, but that is on him. He is the one who chose to do so many gross things after he had already become infamous for The Incident.

FFS, being The Guy couldn't stop him from telling the hospital story, even though it DEFINITELY should have made him think twice. He doesn't obey reality, and it lays the smack down on him in kind.

Is that spider man laughing meme going to become a regular part of his OBS set up? I actually am glad it is because he is such a boomer he can't just play the audio but needs his free meme clip to play to get the laugh going.

He'll stop when it finally dawns on him that normies think he looks crazy. He isn't based enough to put on such displays for anything but the changing of outside opinions.
