DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[Donuteater]

This underperforming marathon led me to a realisation: I always had in my mind that Phil earns more than me, but is an idiot and wastes all his money and that's why he has a khando to show for and that's that (besides tech that depreciates with 1% per month according to accounting standards). But this year I calculated it again out of interest, and Phil earns now roughly the same amount as I do per year while being almost ten years older, "working" a day more per week and has to be a begging clown on the Internet for it. As far as I understand the American retirement system, Phil hasn't got anything more than social security (I guess nobody believes that he is able to save via 401k, he also never said that afaik). He has no benefits like being able to purchase the product / services of the company you work at cheaper, or discounts for partner companies or reimbursements for public transport, gyms, employee stocks etc. This guy is living on borrowed time, fully depending on dents and dentractors for the rest of his life. I am not American, but at this point, wouldn't it make more sense to reduce streaming hours and work a part time job and have at least some security/ benefits / career & retirement options? Dents might even increase the tips / h amount. As far as I get it right now, he earns above US average, but he's not strictly well-off unlike 5 years ago when only tips counted and the rest was bonus. Especially if we think about a bum with a college degree who should by now have made a career himself, became a specialist in his field or some sort of team leader. But I talk about Phil, I don't think he is able to find work or hold on to a job for more than a week. Of course, there is also fat Khat who might or might not work part-time.

I would like to read the thoughts of US citizens (not resiDents, ackackack) about this topic.

As a non-American, this fucker makes damn near 3 times what I make, and I make an above average amount of money. I'm not sure how benefits, savings and social security translate but he's been fucked for a long time. The bankruptcy should have proven this. He had two houses but never rented the Connecticut one, he just left it there gathering dust because he was incapable of talking to a property manager. He made $300k a year with machinima and somehow pissed it all away. Best of all he knows this, and it causes him enough anxiety to be entertaining but not enough to motivate his lazy ass to make his streams not shit.

Is this all that detractors have on Phil?

[Bodywork by Dennis]

Dave never even bothered to check out the betting site with all the offbeat Super Bowl bets (Gatorade color, National Anthem length, etc,). That was genuinely a good idea for some chill, interactive fun. Phil is a retard and gay.

 

[Balr0g]

Well its official this marathon was a failure

No no. It was a Phailure. Because he phails in life. This guy is just trying to get by until the next big thing. He is again (or rather always was) living paycheque to paycheque. He better hopes Youtube and Kick never closes down or kick him to the curve. sure there is Twitch but he probably is still waiting for his apology he will never get. and him getting a normal job is never going to happen as he has no skills left. His education is now worthless and his body is so frail he is even too weak to stack shelves

 

[Big Brown Schlub]

also he calls other players humans in this game

Makes sense, he's the only pigroachian alien playing.

 

[shekelshoah666]

Watching some stuff back man this really was bad. Stalling the start of gameplay to get to $100 and then stalling again for like 25 minutes a few hours later to get to $300 saying he won't beg anymore if you get him to his not goal only to beg almost right away after getting over $300.

Constantly begging for a $100 dono to see the new meaningful animation is really fucking sad.

Bannerlord was normal DSP tutorial struggle into not knowing what anything does
She Was 98 was full clown mode yelling to not get scared usual shit
The food sucked ayuss rice chicken and eggroll were all bad
DayZ was just a disgrace he didn't care to try at all
Constant bitching about the room temp refusing to connect his hose to his window to run the AC even though it's still plugged in by the window
Deadlock he skipped every tutorial didn't know what was going on and fake hyped it a bit as an invite only game. He got trolled but still said he might still play it again.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion braindead easy mode shit he will prob play this again cause that one dude who paypigged T2 wants him to
Digimon was total disrespect full clown mode but Eva being a tard joy this
SF6 gameplay was some of the worst he just kept doing the same Gief pattern non stop while crying about pattern players.

Probably his worst marathon ever content wise he just didn't give a fuck and wasn't even taking shots he was too busy drinking some mixer and cutwater shit most of the time. At least in other marathons that had shitty gameplay he would have some real crash outs but he didn't drink enough in this one to really do that besides begging.

Reminder that whenever dsp makes money, all that goes into the void. Hes fucked in the long run and his retirement wont be pretty. Instead of seething because some fat fuck got funded by literal retards, just kick back point and laugh at the fat polack as he stumbles through life in an unfufilling life and marriage.

 

[BPD Gunt Rider]

How did Phil get trolled like that in an "invite only" game?

 

[Free Jasper]

This guy is just trying to get by until the next big thing.

Exactly. I feel like the last few years have just been lumbering from desperate gimmick to desperate gimmick, some working better than others.

“It’s the vest streak guys! Oh, why didn’t that last forever? Ok, bubbles? No? How about a fishing hat I put lures on? Naow guise, guess what? I’m going to eat food for you! Now I’m a react streamer! This isn’t working so I need someone to interview me.. sidescrollers! … ok that didn’t go so well, but guess what? I’m a drama streamer now! With Kino Casino! And I interview people! And I review cologne! Ok, forget all of that, everyone’s laughing at me. Instead I’m famous because Asmongold once spoke to me! Hey, where did everyone go? Guys, I’m dunking on wings and LTG here…”

And so it goes on. Because he knows if it’s just him and the games then donations disappear quicker than his old friends did.

 

[Fridge Raider]

or eat some stadium food

Well, Khet was allegedly gonna make some food, but then he quietly swept that under the rug. My theory was he was going to make some shit himself (or more likely buy it) but then realized people would call it out. Or, if you'll permit me to be self-centered, he read one of the messages made here and elsewhere by myself and others stating that Khet's "cooking" gives us good insight as to her status.

Dave never even bothered to check out the betting site with all the offbeat Super Bowl bets (Gatorade color, National Anthem length, etc,). That was genuinely a good idea for some chill, interactive fun. Phil is a retard and gay.

His first reaction when someone brought it up was "yeah I would do that, so if someone else sets it up, tells me what to do, gives me the link, you know does all the actual work, then I would sit here and accept money for it". Everything this man does reveals pieces of his psyche. Someone gives him an idea, for free, that he doesn't have to pay for and might actually provide something to his audience and he wants them to also get it set up for him. His knee-jerk response is to ask someone else to do it for him.

Reminder that whenever dsp makes money, all that goes into the void. Hes fucked in the long run and his retirement wont be pretty. Instead of seething because some fat fuck got funded by literal retards, just kick back point and laugh at the fat polack as he stumbles through life in an unfufilling life and marriage.

Come one, come all, and step inside to see the amazing 43-year-old baby! He has the mind of a child and the body of geriatric alcoholic! Watch as he cries about how hard his life is, give him money to brighten his day! Nah there's no reason to get mad over this dude he ain't worth the energy. He's just a freak in a cage. He had one of if not the largest streamer in the world do a puff-piece interview with him where he let DSP break out all his tactics to avoid accountability. And how long until he was back to his steady decline? A week. Maybe two.

He will not climb out of this hell he created. He's waiting for credit, a second bankruptcy, inheritance from the parents he never even visits, or all three. Apart from that he will ride this ride until he can't anymore, not like he's gonna learn to save money or put down his addictions or be a decent fucking person/entertainer.

 

[Phil's Oddly Shaped Head]

The Begruary ""Gaming"" Marathon status so far.

God damn the back of his head really is flat as fuck

 

[Pargon]

This underperforming marathon led me to a realisation: I always had in my mind that Phil earns more than me, but is an idiot and wastes all his money and that's why he has a khando to show for and that's that (besides tech that depreciates with 1% per month according to accounting standards). But this year I calculated it again out of interest, and Phil earns now roughly the same amount as I do per year while being almost ten years older, "working" a day more per week and has to be a begging clown on the Internet for it. As far as I understand the American retirement system, Phil hasn't got anything more than social security (I guess nobody believes that he is able to save via 401k, he also never said that afaik). He has no benefits like being able to purchase the product / services of the company you work at cheaper, or discounts for partner companies or reimbursements for public transport, gyms, employee stocks etc. This guy is living on borrowed time, fully depending on dents and dentractors for the rest of his life. I am not American, but at this point, wouldn't it make more sense to reduce streaming hours and work a part time job and have at least some security/ benefits / career & retirement options? Dents might even increase the tips / h amount. As far as I get it right now, he earns above US average, but he's not strictly well-off unlike 5 years ago when only tips counted and the rest was bonus. Especially if we think about a bum with a college degree who should by now have made a career himself, became a specialist in his field or some sort of team leader. But I talk about Phil, I don't think he is able to find work or hold on to a job for more than a week. Of course, there is also fat Khat who might or might not work part-time.

I would like to read the thoughts of US citizens (not resiDents, ackackack) about this topic.

Benefits for part-time workers in America have been on the decline for decades. I’m solidly middle age and the only time I had health coverage while working part-time was when I was at university, where standard (“I need my scrips refilled”, “I have bronchitis and need antibiotics”) doctors visits to the campus clinic were covered by the university. Things like EAPs and such are contracted out to the lowest bidding provider and are then used as justification for low wages. Employee discounts at retail and food service are often used for the same (and are by definition predicated on you giving money back to the business you work for lol). Washington has no minimum hours law that I could find, so he could find himself doing what I did after university: driving 45 minutes each way to a minimum-wage, four-hour shift, and spending more on gas than I was actually getting paid.

Most minimum wage jobs are ones only very certain kinds of people are going to find personally rewarding, and for nearly everyone else they’re a net negative experience because lots of people don’t like having to deal with perfect strangers face-to-face day in and day out. In terms of mental illness I’m very similar to Phil on several axes and if I had to get a retail or most other minimum-wage job and the only person I was supporting was myself, I would likely rope.

Holistically, and from specifically his diseased point of view, I think Phil sticking with full-time streaming is the smarter move because any time he spent applying, interviewing and training would be wasted because he’d quit within a week no matter what his duties were.

It’s never been about the amount of money Phil makes (since he spends it all immediately), but rather his unwillingness to change to secure a future for himself. He’s never pushed himself to make smart timely decisions like downgrading his home or getting a real job to maintain an employment history. Instead he takes the easiest, laziest short term solutions.

We’re all here to watch Phil slowly and certainly face the consequences of his shitty decisions.

 

[Hamburger Detractor]

I feel totally convinced. How about you?
View attachment 8528564

Now say it without bugging your eyes out and looking everywhere except the camera. Also what was that about having "an original account and my private account that I had for awhile"? I thought he only had his one account that he "sold a long time ago" and then the one he made for when he streamed the game. So did he have 3 total accounts for Champions, the game he totally doesn't play and doesn't even care about?

*sorry if it was already picked apart, I'm a few pages behind

 

[BPD Gunt Rider]

One thing I agree with Phil on, is that in his state now, his best career option is streaming and begging until he dies. That or get retardbux like much of his audience, which would be unlikely to get approved since he's made millions in the past 15 years.

 

[Ardath]

As a non-American, this fucker makes damn near 3 times what I make, and I make an above average amount of money. I'm not sure how benefits, savings and social security translate but he's been fucked for a long time

Here in these US of A, where our government provides us fucking nothing, when you get a real job thats not at BestBuy, your benefits package is a really big part of your pay, how many vacation days, how much do they match in retirement contributions, healthcare etc, Phil not having any of that, if he actually payed into his retirement, actually payed into savings, got good healthcare, he have no money left over for his trinkets, and that's not to mention no vacations which despite what reddit wants you to think, that would be unhinged for anyone supposedly making six figures. Basically he makes less money than he fronts because he is borrowing from his future to have RGB keyboards now.

I'd bet everything that he's going to try and defraud disability, IF he wasn't such a lazy POS. It's going to take many doctor appointments and paperwork and lawyers. And Phil isnt the type to invest a few bucks to make a lot. He only throws money away.

The best part is going to be all the regrets he's going to have to live with. Imagine if he ONLY invested the money he wasted on mobile games and didnt sell the CT condo. Bro would be set for life at this point.

You think he has been paying his taxes as the year has gone by, or is he going to be stuck with another tax bill he cant afford this year?

Better question: Will Phil bend over backwards and memory hole everything he's said about Keemstar to work with him once the dent money dries up, and he can't beg his way out of another bankruptcy?

 

[Do Not Touch Me Pls]

Digimon was total disrespect full clown mode but Eva being a tard joy this

That's literally one of the only 3 games in Steam that I played personally and it was very clear that he was straight-up running past everything and had no intent to play it to begin with. Also he only played the Demo like with Metaphor.

 

[Fridge Raider]

It's an interesting question. Phil's ego is the only thing he cares about more than making as much money for as little effort as possible. However we have yet to see him in a situation he hasn't been bailed out of. He doesn't feel any shame for begging so that doesn't affect his ego, but having to bow and scrape before Keem definitely would.

I think regardless even if he submits to Keem it won't be for long. It wasn't an accident that he got fired from every job he had, nor is the fact that he has no friends. Keem expects from his "employees" like the exact opposite of how Phil behaves, he'd be fired within a month I reckon.
