Instead I would half-seriously compare Phil to two other long-time lolcows, Russell Greer and Lucas Werner. As bad as Russell and Lucas are, there's a certain sincerity to their insanity. You KNOW Russell believes if he didn't look like he did, he'd be a successful musician dating the latest e-thot. You KNOW Lucas believes those damn telomeres are important and that age-gap relationships are society's plot against him. Their beliefs are irrational at best, but at least they actually believe them.
Phil is the opposite type of lolcow. Phil believes in nothing.
