DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[Beverly Sutphin]

Jesus Christ how does Phil even manage how to be so ignorant yet confident he knows how games work on a programmatic level and say games shouldn't have bugs but in the same breath state they have a million moving pieces.

That's easy: Phil is a textbook narcissist...and I know that word has been thrown around so Goddamn much, it's lost it's meaning, but Phil is every sense of the word a narcissistic person. On a social psychology scale, Phil is the "king of mount stupid" a la Dunning-Kruger effect. He has extremely high confidence in a subject he knows ZERO about, but when it comes to hands on, it's "Uhhh, it's bugged, dood. I did nothing wrong." I wouldn't trust Phil to manage a bowling alley at 2AM, let alone write anything code related.

Phil is the master of his own demise, however, he is so pigheaded - pun intended - that he cannot see past his own errors. The world fucked him over, yet, he did nothing wrong. He loves burning his own house down, even while holding the gas can, he will still scream "Bugged gas mechanics, dood!" My favorite mistake he made was when he opened up a bottle of water, spilled some on himself, and said "They overfilled it at the factory."

There's a Library of Alexander levels of small events that Phil did that led him to where he is now, yet, he is SO damn confident on his abilities. I'm willing to bet money that he HONESTLY thinks he can be a CEO of a Fortune 1000 company and make it profitable. Hell, he once said that he honestly thinks that he could get a middle manager position at somewhere like Microsoft. What makes him qualified? He has a business degree and he run's his YouTube business. My other favorite piece of lore is when thinks he's in good shape because he can lift up a gallon of milk.

While false, he's so pigheaded and stuck in his own head that he can do anything with the confidence of an expert, while barely being a amateur in anything and everything.

Or when he said that his seltzer spilled all over his laptop, as in "I didn't spill it, the seltzer did it on its own and therefore it's not my fault"

 

[GibMoneyPls]

Yeah, when asked years ago what he would do without streaming. He said Google, Microsoft or Amazon would hire him. I love how dumb he is. Being a narcissist and stupid as fuck is a great combo.

I thought he said he wanted to work for Boeing since obviously he's qualified having worked customer service at a helicopter company.

Actually given the state of the company they'd probably hire him now, he'll tell those ivy league dunces they need to count their bolts better.

Pretty sure he'd have to get this taken down before even thinking about that:

I don't understand the 'Work Shy Fop' reference though.

Is it an anagram?

 

[Esquilax]

Work shy=afraid of work, not inclined to work
Fop=faggot

 

[Corpun]

Since we are on the topic of him working real jobs, what did he wear to his amture adult office job at the Helicopter Company? I find it hard to believe it was casual friday every day of the week at the office and I've never seen him wearing actual mature adult clothes back in the day. Was he just waddling into work wearing the same shitty gamer t-shirts and sweatpants or did mommy and daddy take him out to Boscovs so he could get some polo shirts?

First time seeing this weird line in his face, is it a scar or the continuation of his snort sacks?

Probably more balding. If Jasper used his backclaws on him we would have been told about it all the time.

I'm willing to bet money that he HONESTLY thinks he can be a CEO of a Fortune 1000 company and make it profitable

He absolutely does. No sane person pretends to know how supply chains and game releases work as much as Phil does to pretend to LARP. Just look at his absolutely retarded recession/inflation take.

Or when he said that his seltzer spilled all over his laptop, as in "I didn't spill it, the seltzer did it on its own and therefore it's not my fault"

Or when he knocked something over with his setup (Think it was a controller) and he immediately claimed that it flew off on its own.

Obviously wore his trench coat everyday



Which is almost the same feel as Moviebob



I'd assume though that Papa Dave told Phil that he at least had to wear a business casual polo or something.

His rant on Phil Spencer and Microsoft. The levels of cognitive dissonance and Dunning-Kruger....we are past bedrock. Oh, we hit that shit a LONG time ago. Now, it's insanity at this point. Philly cheese steak said this gem: "Sorry, I have a finance background." Phil! You were half a million dollars in debt! You had 13 MAXED out credit cards, a condo you abandoned once your aunt died - you know, the one that you inherited gout from, even though gout is a condition you cannot inherit - a condo you REFUSED to rent out because the idiot real estate agent called you and didn't e-mail you, so, you said "Fuck it!" and didn't pay for it, but kept paying the HOA fee's on it.

Philliam, I know it's in your nature to talk about things you have ZERO experience in, but Christ on a cracker...that whole rant was....I'm seriously laughing at the delusions of grandeur Phil is heavily projecting. That one line of him saying "I have a finance background", therefore, he knows better than Phil Spencer, ya know, some shumuck that's the CEO of Microsoft Gaming, yeah! He's a clown show. Phil Burnell knows what he's talking about, therefore, he knows more.

Phil. Thank you for that giggle.

Honestly? I believe it. Phil has failed so hard that he has accumulated some actual success in his life. He falls upward each time.

 

[FamicomGorby]

@4:22 "PEOPLE INVEST IN COMPANIES FOR LONG TERM RESULTS" Business degree haver Phil says implying that people only do this. Does he not think that people day trade or trade based on how a company is doing at the moment? Also reminder that Phil has no stocks or investments outside of his cache of inflation proof sweaty wrestler jpegs.

Also he seems to think there's no situation in which a company should lay off employees, the CEO should just figure out how to make money. If I had to guess Phil is still bitter about his helicopter factory job and that obviously it was the dunce CEO's fault they let their star employee go.

Yeah but does Phil Spencer even know what a rainy day fund is?!?

Holy fuck @3:40 the level of absolute irony is reaching critical mass

 

[arrivefriday]

I think Spencer should step down too, I bet he doesn't even know how to operate a household. The perfect replacement would most definitely be the 40 year old dood whose skin is melting and rants about twitter headlines, who slams every piece of technology he has because surely that will make them work this time.

I do appreciate Dave going full retard like this once in a while, it certainly helps his attempts at not being the laughing stock of the internet and it keeps me on my toes because whenever I think he can't become more of a clown, he says shit like this

I didn't even think of the best response to this... DSP should stop asking about tips in the moment, because long-term, maybe the consumers will like his product and want to contribute (LOL). I mean, if you have shareholders who only care about the short term results, they don't have your back dude.

Also loved the comment about dressing professionally, while he sits in a shirt he found in a bin at Goodwill and jammies (or sorry, lounge pants, because that's somehow a step up from gamer jammies that people stop wearing after middle school).

Sometimes I forget Phil had a chance to let a rental company manage his condo and make passive income and just refused to do it, letting his house rot until the bank foreclosed on him.

Like, I remember he lost the house, but the fact he had rental companies literally asking him to property manage for him is still the wildest part. It was literally free income (once the mortgage was paid off) and a net neutral til then. And he could have flipped the fucking thing during the housing boom that happened a year later.

It's baffling, it was MORE work for less benefit to fuck about with the condo than just getting passive income for no work.

 

[Iron Hamster]

Beggarbux update: $6666 the devil's money!

 

[Sicko Hunter]

Know how Phil can't answer hypothetical questions? It's the same with his sense of humor, and how his brain functions in general. He's unable to deal with any level of abstraction. Its a serious intellectual problem.

And he's probably on some spectrum.

Phil completely and utterly lacks theory of mind. It's a common issue with people like Phil who are on the autism spectrum. They are unable to put themselves into other peoples shoes. So when you ask Phil how would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast today? Instead of saying "I don't know, hungry?" he responds "what kind of moronic question is that I did have breakfast this morning! My mo-wife cooked it for me!"
