Either way, his fucking spastic attacks lately are making me fucking, well worry is a strong word but he is gonna blow a gasket soon. Something has to fucking give the way he is like twice a day having meltdowns lately. That cannot be healthy.
I knew this day would come. You know he has been e-mailing 1MM aka PlanetJeff at 2 and 3AM during gin and Jasper, panicking...and him drinking heavier and heavier, coming into his mature adult office sloshed. I'm willing to bet money he's tried to talk to Khat, but she's so stressed out from her retail job and her 12 hour work week, she doesn't have time to listen to Phil's issues and her mind still at work because her job is so stressful.
Also, he has to protect the one thing he loves more than anything in the world: getting his money and his login streak into WWE Champions. Those six star Hogans need to pulled, dood!
No, it's not. All that cortisol and adrenaline - the stress chemicals - pumping through his body is only going to cause long term harm, as our bodies can only do it before so long before our bodies shut down and say "Stop!", and his amygdala is firing off every single day he does not reach his tips goal. A bit of a science lesson in neurology: the amygdala is the part of our brains where it's the major processing center for controlling our emotions, along with correlating emotions to things like memories, learning, and our sense. Phil has operant conditioning - a fancy term meaning that we learn something from our behaviors - to seeing a 1MM tip every single day. He has become accustomed to seeing that.
The best way to think of it is like this: you work a job, you're told by payroll "The 1st and the 15th is when you're going to receive your paycheck." We're all aware of that. However, when you don't see it in your bank account on the 15th, you start to wonder "Okay, that's weird. I've set up my direct deposit, why wasn't it in there?" After a few hours, you think nothing of it. By the second day of it not there, you start to wonder "Okay, there has to be a payroll issue." By the third day, you start to go "Okay, this is weird." and you call payroll to let them know. Because payday has come and gone and you've got other bills that are coming, but you still have money in there, because you're a mature adult. Phil correlate's 1MM as a "guaranteed" $25 everyday. When it hasn't come, the idea of panic, fear, and the rise of cortisol and adrenaline start to fill his mind. Also, Phil lacks any form of emotional maturity, and he can't take responsibility to save his life, it's everyone else's fault.
Phil is going off the deep end and FAST! His gin consumption is going to go higher, as he needs more and more to cope with the stresses of life, the WWE Champions is going to increase, the lashing out is going to increase, and I wouldn't be shocked if he does have a stroke or go into cardiac arrest on stream. Hell, you'll probably see him die on stream and his body just laying there until a dent decides to call EMT's, because Khat is just as useless as Dave.
