keemstar? frank hassle?. Hes just making things worse and worse and worse getting in bed with some of the most messed up people on the internet who get into drama of another level that he is not ready for at all.
this was inevitable the moment phail was first introduced to the sektur and the guntosphere cast its evil eye back on him
 
I don't think people should go after his parents
Agreed. He goes after them himself. (damn wolverine doll)
I wouldn't expect a streamer to basically tell a supposed first-time viewer why people don't like him. Then demonstrate it.

No need to .remember' back that far Phail when you can just go back to last week.
I mean has anyone actually tried to watch project 7?
I'm not into Bromosexual lack-of comedys
Nigga he worked for Sikorsky dam near 20 years ago. PPP saying Phil doesn't have an ID now doesn't mean he's never had one before.
I figure it's something he could renew fairly easily once he got one and kept his nose clean. Plus, he'd do it to act the bigshot.
 
pure works of fiction as some sort of bizarre and eccentric side character
One of the weird things about Phail is that he's at least marginally in touch with reality. He's so insane regarding a sense of right or wrong, but he's oriented to time and space. One would think he'd have a more tenuous grasp of the real world given the size of his ego, yet he has managed to remain aware that the world exists.

Sorry for rambling. Words are hard.

I remember watching his Half Life 2 playthrough and he literally seemed to have no spatial awareness (like he couldn't spot holes in the floor or make jumps properly). People love his racing game streams because he drives full force straight into walls.

Some quotes (and keep in mind this was 7 years ago, so god knows how his mental faculties are like now) to put into perspective how bad his sense of time and space is:
I love how since Phil is a bumbling idiot he bumbles through hl2 as he totally misses scripted events happening off his camera.

Example, he is totally oblivious to the room he's in got explosive barrels dumped into it the exploded because he was staring at the floor (and already underwater so it didn't kill him).
Gets to one of the first physics "puzzles" where you hit some boards to release barrels and boxes that float the surface.

Releases everything under one section and still hits at last remaining board... to release nothing else.
It seems like every time he gets to a room with water it just inherently breaks his brain
On the airboat he completely missed 3 combine soldiers
"totally fucked them up" as he drives clearly past them
Helicopter chases him in his airboat
Doesn't even fucking notice it.
He completely misses environmental details. He seems to miss sound queues that are very prominent in HL2 like the health/charge sounds or gravity gun charge/empty sounds very frequently but he does rarely catch them and comment on them. You can notice he's missing them because he does stuff that is "wrong" when he misses them.
You can also notice when he approaches a problem he looks at almost entirely one dimensionally. I rarely see him look around from different perspectives when he sees a problem. He sees the problem, but rather than try to proactively find a solution he'll just throw random shit at it until it works.

When he's near the prison area there are two different occasions where he just walks straight into a situation you'd expect most people being aware that it'd require jumping or sprinting. He slows down before, because he often recognizes there is a gap, but he doesn't think to look from an angle to see how big the gap actually is.

Some of that could be down to the fact he used to sit a bit further away from his TV or down to his drinking or even down to the fact he's constantly looking at his chat and monitoring tips or he's not immersed in the game fully but it is quite bizarre.

So it's hard to say with confidence that there is something wrong in his sense of space/time but it appears that he may actually have issues with it. He either lies about trivial things or he confabulates them and confused when things happened - apparently this is a symptom of Korsakoff syndrome (which has been mentioned here repeatedly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernicke–Korsakoff_syndrome)

With his level of drinking and how long he has been doing it, its almost a certainty that he has a Vitamin B deficiency. I have a childhood friend who was hardcore drinking (far beyond DSP levels) and I heard very recently that they literally can't walk anymore anymore and its very likely (almost certain) that its because of a Vitamin B12 deficiency which is fucking sad because they were a genuinely nice person.

I mean even if you go to a doctor about alcoholism they will generally prescribe you a Vitamin B supplement because of how many issues it can cause.

TLDR: drinking large amounts and consistently can cause a serious Vitamin B deficiency that can cause serious health problems. So if you're gonna do that shit at least see a doctor about be honest about your habit.

And just remember the older you get (especially once you're about to hit 40+ the more this kind of shit presents itself)

And Philburt was mad because KC was taking shots at him? Ethan Ralph definitely thinks DSP is a bigger lolcow than he is, and has absolutely 0 respect for him. Ralph just sees a chance for clout and to hopefully get one over on the Canadians by stealing their plaything.
Add to it the fact that Ralph's doing barely coherent pillstreams again, so he's obviously back into the drugs.

Seriously, Phil does know who Ethan Ralph is, right? He understands he's planning to stream with an actively alcoholic, drug addicted felon and spousal abuser who got convicted for revenge porn?

Do either of these guys even really watch wrestling anymore? What insights are they expecting to offer? If this happens at all, it will be a trainwreck.

A tale as old as time: lolcows try to show the world by uniting to prove their haters wrong, only to forget the reason they're lolcows is because they're total antisocial weirdos who can't actually get along with anyone.
 
I can see DSP getting butthurt that Gunt posted first, and as a punishment make him wait a week for his audition spot.
Very possible. He hates it when his “big surprise” guests blow his spot. That and it gives more time to the detractors to get them up to speed. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your perspective) Ralph is too dumb and depraved to care about anything negative Phil has done.
 
“The next holiday I’m looking forward to is my birthday”

Your birthday isn’t a holiday. Also, he’s 43. Who throws themselves a patty or do this “birthday month” at 43? You’re halfway dead.
Halfway dead? you're being hopeful. I'd say he's 2/3 through, no way The Guy is making it another 40 years with his current lifestyle

Then again lolcows never fail to impress with their longevity in the face of adversity (cwc, eugenia cooney, ashley isaacs, etc) and he's known as the pigroach for a reason
