I also lean towards most of these being real. As Schlub said, Phil not reacting to these big tips only means he knew they were coming and that's HIS MONEY. We know he's basing his entire schedule on whales promising him money now, so it's probably just that.
Either way it looks really shady and wack for him.
Sat there stalled just to have to fake a tip to have a goal met
or
Sat there and had to stall like a faggot with major overtime, waiting for some sorry cuck to finally tip like it was expected.

Really makes the whole overarching goal and motives of his stream feel really artificial, arbitrary, fake and gay.
 
Well how can he lean into TIHYDP? Its his sheer stupidity that got them made. And his refusal to be admit fault. If he was to lean in you'd get more time wasting shit and lame reacts.
I've heard people mention this before, but DSP leaning into the TIHYDP would be the worst. It's like Tommy Wiseau deciding after The Room was universally laughed at, that it was "a dark comedy all along and I totally meant to make a bad move movie, ACK, ACK, ACK. You get it?" His output since becoming self-aware has been pure dogshit.
I remember when tards like doody thought that 1MM didn't exist and it's Phail actually "priming the tips jar" but in the end 1MM did in fact exist
Well, it is Doody. Retards will tard. It's in their nature.

He already tried to, but by then it was too late. Oldheads will remember!

Has Philly ever directly blamed Hulk Hogan for the reason he's a constant liar? Since Hogan lies about literally everything he's ever said Phil could pull out "but I was groomed and thought that's what professionals did!!!" as an excuse. I guess that would require him to admit that he constantly lies about everything, which is kind of counterintuitive.....

Begging like a destitute crack head is all a work, brother!

It's also interesting to me that he claims he doesn't know the person making these last minute huge donations but he doesn't audit them he like he normally does when first time or unknown people do sub bombs or large donations to make sure they aren't trolls or from Argentinia.
 
Phil is lucky that shit like this never goes viral, because this is what truly deserves to get mocked by millions of people. The entitlement, the tech illiteracy
The sad thing is, he doesn't seem that off to a section of the internet. Like remember how the KC tourists acted. For every KANG cheer, there were two or three of em, that looked at a fat, ill bred, poor tempered, illiterate, trash eating, sedentary, balding, horse fucker and thought, "whats so wrong with this guy?"
 
well guys just remember he is probably paid by Youtube today or has been paid yesterday. So the begging makes total sense (probably keeping the dents in line) Considering we still have 9 days before SSI is payed out again we can enjoy some more harcore begging days unless some whale digs deep to appease the gout lord.

Also: you think he will make the Kick support thing a part of his bottom bitch podcast today? He bitches about everything so I expect it. Then again he doesn't want to entertain "da trollz" so who knows?
 
I hate to be that guy, but that was actually his twitter profile background. That was long before they got rid of that and made users stick with a blank background on their profile, but he most certainly was(and still is)fixated on having his face front and center wherever possible(like those stupid deepfakes of his face on those tip animations).

Phil would have to be extremely dumb, a dunce, a real mouth-drooler, to make himself stay overtime in both streams yesterday and then fake the tip. Why not fake it a half-hour earlier so you can go get drunk and pull Hogans? (Okay, I already thought of a counterargument---to try to get a real tip first. Damn brain.)

However...once Phil made the entire channel content begging for tips, stalling until there are tips, and all his rewards dependent on tips, there's definitely motivation to fake them. It creates content, it gets him closer to marathons where he can make bigger money, it (in Phil's mind) proves he's a winner, etc. So while faking tips would be sleazy and dumb, Phil does lots of sleazy, dumb things.
 
The mask has slipped more than once where Phil knows his whales are stupid. Phil has nothing but contempt for Ryan, Flathead B, Perry the White, etc.
“Slipped”? I’d argue his contempt for nearly all of his supporters has been consistently more wide-the-fuck open than Ma Burnell in her heyday. The one he defended to the fucking hilt was Derich, a very reasonably-suspected pedophile and sex pest, and he only stopped when other creators with bigger audiences bullied him into it. All the others, Tut, Emerald7, Swaggins…he’s treated them all like shit and driven them away within a matter of weeks.

Which probably means there’s something else about Derich that Phil saw that made him believe he was worth keeping around, but I’m not going to ruin my day speculating on that shit, I dislike Phil enough as it is.
 
DSP trying to claim disability will be the best arc, backs are about the most fraudulent disability claims, so much so that without MS, you can't get permanent disability for a "bad back". He would spend years to get a temporary disability that would require in person doctor visits and tests that he would have to pay for out of his own pocket.

I'm all for it.
Indeed. Lower back injuries, or almost any 'soft tissue' malady are very highly contested by the SSA, requiring copious amounts of doctor verification and a long history of treatment before you could hope to pull any level of draw. Considering how reluctant Philip is to get treatment he actually needs, along with his well documented penchant for prevarication, I would put his chances of convincing a judge of his 'disability' to be close to nil. Moreover, when you're waiting for a decision between first filing and final call, you're not expected to pull in any sort of actual earnings - lest it prove that you don't really need the benefits. Generally, my theory has been that they spend so much time deliberating in order to not only ferret out possible fraud, but to ensure that the claimant exhausts all other avenues prior. For instance, subsisting on state level benefits or cashing out one's 401k.

That said, DSP has long since claimed that he couldn't live on less than $3000/mo, and last I checked, pulling a full SS pension at retirement age with full donations leading up to same is the only way someone could get remotely close to a $3k draw.

You don't have the option of not paying Social Security, it's part of your FICA tax withholdings, of which he is responsible for both halves of, as he is a sole proprietor. That's part of what his back taxes payment plan is paying.
Well, I'm not certain that YT/K actually withholds FICA, since what you get from them aren't technically wages, per se. If anyone here gets a check from Kick/Youtube, they'd be better able to confirm/debunk that particular hypothesis. If (as I suspect) they only take their cuts and send the rest, then it would be all up to Phil as the sole proprietor to make those deductions afterwards; which would almost certainly mean that he hasn't put away shit for his eventual retirement/disability claim.
 
I also lean towards most of these being real. As Schlub said, Phil not reacting to these big tips only means he knew they were coming and that's HIS MONEY. We know he's basing his entire schedule on whales promising him money now, so it's probably just that.
I agree. In Phil’s mind, that is already his money. Why should he be grateful? Its already his and designated for fun money
