Holy shit that last segment, dear lord it was like pulling teeth out.
Phil ranting and raving about how its the parents fault for not taking care of their drugged out and mentally unstable ADULT son.
I need a MIND WASH :story: another night of 30min OT
It was a really weird segment because you could see real emotion (seething hatred) coming from him when he shittalked Jordan Neely's father rather than the usual DSPahlitics staple of blasé schizoyapping or fake "hyping up" of a "based" take he's having. I think it comes from a place of projection and Phail feels like all his phailures come from his dad not handholding him his entire life.
 
DSP entered the Kino Casino chat around 1:45am to keep begging.

The 15 subs ($75) was the price of admission for Phil to beg hard in Kino Casino's chat for their viewers to start coming to his streams and giving him money again.

Phil initially gave 10 subs ($50), to which PPP attempted to convince DSP to give 100 subs ($500) for them to retweet his show announcement, but he was only able to extract an additional 5 subs ($25) from Phil, who himself demanded that every Kino Casino viewer who hasn't checked out his streams try it watching Phil's amazing content TODAY!

I love how Phil will dump gifted subs on another channel but refuses to give out his 10 free gifted subs a month on his own channel.
 
He doesnt live stream events because people rather focus on the LIVE event than giving him money.
I think it's because he's terrified of having to give live commentary. I recall him not streaming it in the past, but instead watching it live and taking notes, then doing a stream after the fact where he shared his notes. I always assumed it was because he was afraid of being caught off guard by something/saying something wrong. By waiting, he can scan Twitter headlines to see which games he's supposed to pretend to be hyped about, and which ones he's supposed to shit on.

I know he's gotten lazier recently about reacting to some stuff live without pre-screening it, but I think his inner fence sitter wins out for video games because he's supposed to be, in his mind, some kind of expert. Kind of like how his "best/worst of" lists tend to be largely lifted from what other people say, with a few odd DSP takes sprinkled in here and there, so popular games that he rage quit or shit on can still somehow end up in the "best of" list.
 
He can't even shit on people who have no business doing it back. So he's just accepting jabs from KC instead of full on punches because he cannot "razz" back at all. He's a huge pussy who still wants to keep KC around so he can leech off of them.
The cruel punchline is if phil had two braincells and half an inch of backbone he could have cemented his kick audience. Stolen some of the KC dents and just gotten to level 2. And all he had to do was insult Kino back. Like it wasn't even hard. His opponents are a fat retard and a cowardly little crackhead. And this audience isn't expecting Swiftian ripostes. If Phil just said they were fat drug addicts with a modicum of swagger, he would be golden.

Especially because everyone involved is grading him on a curve. I would expect thats why PPP keeps taking shots. He keeps giving Phil slow pitches right across the plate. But, instead, he simps and he grovels. Thats your based king.
 
Strike while the iron's cold.
Phil's favorite irl equipment, the sledgehammer made of a block of ice. Unlike triple P's, that what Phil calls PPP the fat tranny, favorite irl equipment choice, the sledgehammer made of pastries.

-Dave, 11/18/2024 prestream
So how is he going to walk this back, if at all?
Another Baldur's Gate retroactive cope overdose, is that what, two years in a row now?

Germain to the thread and the regulars who post in it: the site's movie night, in a stunning victory for Phil in a voting style scenario, voted for "DSP 72 hour marathon" to take up Friday and run apparently to Sunday last weekend, so, normally stuff that would be forbidden with Phil (This is How You Don't Plays, specifically for one) from running on movie night will tonight instead be fair game. If you would like to attend, and make professional style detractor suggestions for what should be shown to the attendees this weekend from him, all are welcome and your suggestions will not be suggestion boxed like a discarded prestream segment by the pigroach. The weekend will start when the traditional seven active chat users are signed in at the channel here. Pigups, to all are armed detractors. :semperfidelis: (My attempt at not darksyde killing off the weekend tradition on the site is to actually show movies, about either pigs, or roaches, in between Phil filler but if enough actual DSP suggestions are put in, sure, 72 hours of beg it can be instead. Why not.)

Agreed. Best thing he could have done was take a controlled swing at them a few weeks ago. As I said yesterday given who they are, simping is the ABSOLUTE worst thing he could do.

But even a few weeks ago may have been too late. He needed to make a change when this arc was at its peak. Instead he bought shit off Amazon and called it ‘hard work’ and ‘a big upgrade’. But it’s not, it’s just the same old Phil doing the same old shit and it’s definitely too late now.

By the way, big ups to whoever said Phillip looks like a Sith Lord a few weeks ago. I can’t stop seeing it. The pale, haggard skin… the beady eyes… the fucked up teeth…
 
And that has always been his issue. Phil is so high off of his own farts, that when anyone shows him a HINT of attention - even clearly making fun of him, like when KC made fun of fat Khat, he just laughed it off and couldn't see that they were laughing AT him, not with him. However, that just shows how truly socially, mentally, and emotionally stunted he truly is, without realizing HE is the issue.
The whole Kino Casino arc had me thinking we were all wrong, that greed does come before his ego. He's been taking flak from KC for ages but he still tries to hang out with them to leech off of their audience, going so far as to even give them money.

If Phil is legitimately so socially retarded he doesn't know he's being made fun of, ego over greed could still be possible. And now that you said it, I think it's the most likely. He is a hermit.
 
Youtube's weird algorithm recommends me the weirdest things, like for example something like this:

"Chill Uncle Frank Talks Baseball & Calvin and Hobbes Comics"
2 Hours 41 minutes, Live Streamed 3 days ago
6 views

And it's just some random guy with a Super Mario mustache sitting on a Couch. Is that going to DSP some day? Somebody's weird guy in their algorithm that they quickly scroll by before they get too depressed thinking about it?

While I won't deny he's trying to leech off of their audience, I think when he simps for KC, he's basically doing what his paypigs do, try and pay for friendship. To give Phil an insulting bit of credit, he was actually doing it well before he had paypigs. Going all the way back to his original condo purchase in CT, he basically said he bought it to try and impress a girl. When he wants to be closer with someone, his only solution is to throw money at them until they're trapped.

I might be wrong because I don't really follow the KC side of things, but with my limited knowledge, it feels like they're doing what Phil did to OIC in the beginning. OIC was as desperate to be a mod as Phil is desperate to have friends. But Phil kept stringing him along to get OIC to donate, while privately admitting in Discord he had no intention of giving OIC anything. Feels like KC is doing the same thing, intententionally or not, stringing Phil along, dangling the idea of being friends in front of him while making him jump through hoops, either in donating or giving subtle pushes for him to humiliate himself by streaming politics.
 
Every day we get a bit closer to seeing the black shirt beg hole collapse in on itself. I really hope Phil just keeps at it, ramping up his clownmode in a desperate attempt to appeal to more dents.
If his back's up against the wall, I imagine he might actually try to branch out and "diversify" his content in some manner, like returning to Twitch or maybe becoming a Fortnite streamer. But I imagine this as an absolute last-ditch effort to attract fresh viewers.
I can't wait for the day he returns to twitch after the mad amounts of shit he's been talking about how trash it is.

He definitely knew he was being made fun of, and if he didn't, 100 people told him. But he legit thought he was going to be part of the gang, just some friendly razzing, and he'd keep getting KC dent tips forever. When it became totally clear he was part of their Wack Pack and that had no interest in him except as a joke, Phil then....did nothing. Because for as many insults as Phil dishes out, he only does it when you can't say anything back. Phil wouldn't even defend himself or his wife when they called her fat (which is part of the reason KC dropped him in the first place, no entertainment). If he did, he'd call them stupid idiot mouthdroolers, and then what? He's got no ammuntion for a verbal battle.
