IMO It depends on what you mean by "survive." If you mean as a businessman, then no, that's wrong. Once you try and solicit money by pity begging for personal things like groceries, you are no longer a business, you are a charity. DSP claims to be a businessman so that is the standard I hold him at. If he admits he's a charity case and fake businessman, then I'll reassess my position. You can call that a cope or a bias, but that is a standard I would hold to everyone and everything, including myself.
I dunno man, I have been on the internet since it was legitimately a new thing in people's homes. I was there during Windows 32.
And this fucker is still always around. He got his fame from winning a tournament on a game where no one else showed up and pivoted that into an online carreer.

Yes, we are all laughing at him, but hes been doing this for over 15 years. He is one of those lolcows that I believe is harmless and still makes me laugh sometimes so I kinda hope he keeps doing whatever he is doing.
I'm just surprised that retards keep paying him money, but then again, it's not my money so I don't care. At least that money isn't going to an actual cancer leech like Hassan or Ethan Ralph.

Imagine getting taken for a ride by a room temperature IQ like DSP.
Hey man, I'm here for a good time. :story:
 
"So, in truth ... I'm about to drop a little holiday truth bomb on everyone, all right? Are you ready for this one? If I never existed, if I'd never made a youtube video, if I'd never had any prominence on the internet, if I'd never bothered turning on a camera, pointing it at a tv and doing really stupid commentary, if I'd never made tens of thousands of videos, all right? Here's the truth. Tons of people never would've been youtubers, tons of content never would've been made, people wouldn't have been inspired to do what they did, and the world would be a very different place."

And the coup de grâce:

"If I never existed, a lot of positive things would've never happened on this planet, whether indirectly or directly as a result of my actions, my existence has actually prominently impacted the internet and life, quite frankly."

Philip Paul "I am not a lolcow" Burnell, 12/20/24



This alone was worth letting the Kino arc play out.
The thing i've always found funniest about Philbert is the sheer fucking EGO on display, despite doing literally nothing to earn it. He really is deluded into thinking he's God's gift to gamers, and his seclusion in Renton has only made it worse. I hope he never goes away, he always finds new and interesting ways to make a fool of himself while thinking he's still the shit
 
Even those of us here everyday notice Phil's sanity leaving him bit by bit, but I think the rant from yesterday would shock someone who stopped watching just one year ago. Motherfucker would've saved Youtube if not for those nasty trolls :story:
If nobody made fun of Phil, by now we would have a cure for cancer, we would've ended poverty, everybody worldwide would have free healthcare and the two state solution in the Middle East would've worked. Because Phil would've been there to be taken seriously, and his valuable input would've solved all these issues and prevented others.

Phil, at no point in your life were you anything other than the jester. When you decided to put yourself on the internet, under the scrutiny of the world, you amplified the size of the circus. If you had been born thousands of years ago, you would've still been the village grug idiot that can't build a hut, can't farm and begs the populace for stone tools.
 
Phil wasn't even the first let's player. A lot of people were already recording theirselves playing video games and uploading it to youtube, some with commentary, some without, by 2008. Phil wasn't the first one to direct capture gameplay. He wasn't the first to livestream video games. He didn't actually do anything first or innovate anything once he got going.

Shit, I remember watching 4PlayerPodcast back in '08 on Justin.tv. They did direct capture, playthroughs with commentary and streamed all before Phil even started his 'career.'

Phil wishes he could do this and get 1.2 Million views.

 
Jesus that rant was unhinged as fuck, phil needs to be thrown in a padded room.
For all that I've posted about Phil over the years, and all that most of us have posted, a lot of the time we're mocking his grift, his lying, his pathetic existence, his crazy fans. But honestly, this rant about how much he changed the world through his presence online was truly delusional, actual mental illness. He's truly lost touch with reality and needs some real help.
 
Is there a clip of this? It seems like it was first mentioned like 5 pages ago and there's been significant commentary on it but no clip here and didn't see one on tweeter
Snort Burnell's latest video has it starting around 6 minutes in.

TBS has 30 minutes on it starting about 2 hours and 10 minutes in.

To think no one would have ever thought to upload video game footage if it wasn't for him, when people were already doing before him, is just completely retarded and actually insane. He's mentally unhinged at this point. He's convinced himself he actually invented let's plays/playing video games on the internet.
I think the most insane one has to be the one where he was shown Reviewbrah and he immediately went on saying that he inspired him and that he invented the whole concept of eating on camera. How fucking unhinged and full of yourself do you have to be to actually believe that something that's been a mainstay genre of content on TV before the internet was even widely available to the general public is something you have invented.
 
"You want compromise, how's this? 20 years as the internet laughing stock, I wanted authentic east coast italian doordash, but I compromised. I ate turkey hot dogs and lunch meat sandwiches instead. I wanted to fuck an underage woman who I groomed and separated from her family, but I compromised. I jacked off in a tissue on stream. You see where I'm goin'?

- Phil Leotardo "DSPGaming" Burnell
 
If people don't know what he's saying it's literally that Pewdiepie and other big time youtubers interacted with his videos in some way early on and he inspired them so without him they would not exist so you should be thankful and please tip. Multiple times he has ranted like this but this is by far the most out there insane rant of how important he is.
 
DSP missed a tragic, but fundamental part of growing up that is watching a loved one die or suffer from terminal illness and learning how to adapt to the grief and emotions that come with that territory.

Given the way he is, should we even assume that he'd be sad about it? At most, he'd be sad that he'd get fewer birthday and Christmas presents each year.

Imagine if he won the lottery? Would he still stream for the love of th3 game? How much would go to door dash/wwe champions? Would khat divorce him for half?

He'd keep streaming. He's too much of an attention whore to leave the internet.

DSP’s It’s a Wonderful Life phase wasn’t on my Christmas list but I’m here for it.
It's more akin to a reverse of the Pottersville vision, where Phil realizes just how abundantly little he personally has actually changed the world through his honest and meaningful kahntent.
