DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Detractress]

My theory is that Phil is likely smarter than he makes himself out to be. He "claims" he's surprised by these water bills and tax bills, but in fact I cannot imagine that he's like "well noone told me". Just like how he "claims" that he didnt know that his BMW didnt need an oil change in 3 years. I refuse to believe anyone is that stupid.
But what he's going to put out to the public is that this tax bill is a "surprise".

The perfect storm however, he may know they're coming, but he has no way to deal with them. Quarterly taxes are normally due in September/October, if his property tax is due every 6 months, and IF there's a HOA assessment causing him to need to go to a meeting over (probably protesting the cost of this, and that's his right I think everyone in a HOA has the right to argue against a very expensive assessment).

Looking at the facts and figures we know about. The CT condo costs 1500/mo as does the Patreon Palace. That's 3 grand right there. Tack on this every 6 months property tax, that's 5 grand (I'm rounding up) Phil then has about 2 grand to spare on his average beggings (I refuse to call them earnings) to then cover food, gas, his internet, cable bill, cell phone bill, credit card bill, car payment, if he has a monthly health insurance bill (he's flip flopped on carrying Obamacare several times) The base bills alone are at least 1500 if not 2k. That leaves him 500 bucks for food (and our little piggy does love to eat large, and gets a lot of takeout food now) And he hasnt purchased a single game. If an assessment comes, or any other large bill, such as property tax on the CT condo, assessment on the CT condo, assessment on the Patreon Palace, he doesnt have the money to spare and he cant flip his finances around any more to fix the hole he's dug for himself. I notice he's trying to get rid of his cable in favor of a amazon stick trying to cut costs. Something financial is out there that's looming. But it may happen or it may not happen. Thats why the perfect storm makes sense. Many things have to happen in order to force Phil out.
I had another thought that his "meeting" was him attempting to get a 2nd mortgage on the Patreon Palace. This is VERY dangerous for him and a very bad idea if he's attempting this. If he uses the 2nd mortgage to pay for the assessment and taxes, then he has three mortgages to pay. And there's no way he can afford this. He can drag out the 2nd mortgage to pay for a good portion of the CT condo or the first mortgage on the Patreon Palace, but there will be that 2nd mortgage and whatever is left of the other mortgages. 2nd mortgages tend to carry a higher interest rate than first mortgages. And I cant imagine that his credit is in good shape. Which would also explain the fear. He knows he cant afford it. He knows that his credit is BAD. He has no cosigner anymore, he may not get this 2nd mortgage. That's just more reckless speculation on my part

if his property tax is due every 6 months

His property taxes for CT aren't due until January. So he's only got the one in WA to worry about right now.

• a smooth ridge between the upper lip and nose, small and wide-set eyes, a very thin upper lip, or other abnormal facial features
• lack of focus
• poor coordination
• delayed development and problems in thinking, speech, movement, and social skills
• poor judgment
• problems seeing or hearing
• learning disabilities
• intellectual disability
• heart problems
• kidney defects and abnormalities
• deformed limbs or fingers
• mood swings

Well i'll be damned. The fact we have seen old forum posts and stuff and we now know Phil has always been this person something like FAS is a real possibility. Gotta say part of me knows Phil would become even more insufferable if he ever found out he had something like this that he would use for sympathy and any thing done wrong he has an instant excuse. However the other part knows Phil's hubris will never allow him to go get any tests and by the time he finds out something is wrong unfortunately it may be too late.

Spoiler: Old info, but sewer bill

So I guess his $400 sewer bill that he acted all surprised about was not an unusual thing and not all at once. He pays $200 twice a year and has done so since 2013. Before that it was cheaper.

Anyone think he may be caught off guard by the price of all of these bills because Phil made Leanna take care of the bills? It is not out of the realm of possibility that Phil, the lazy asshole he is, made some kind of deal that he would make the money and Leanna would make sure the bills got paid. Obviously Dsp could just be lying because it is his favorite thing to do, but another scenario popped into my head.

He'd never admit he's a tard because of brain damage from the womb.

Depends, how many more tips will he get? He already lowered himself to clown, then to pan handler, claiming he is a tard or has any kind of mental deficiency is the next logical step for Dsp to lower himself to.

 

[Hatoful Dandy]

Gotta love it everytime he creates these "abunchapeepul" and "aluttapeepul" entities to support his stupid narratives. He's not fooling anyone with two people donating hundreds.

Who are you to doubt his belief in the aztec gods of gout and lying that he prays to?

 

[Xenomorph]

He'd never admit he's a tard because of brain damage from the womb.

Yeah, but this is the same guy who denied and denied he jerked his dick on stream but once he realized he could profit off of it he was all of a sudden was proud of it. So do I believe he would use a dx of FAS for money and donations? Yes, I do. He has no pride.

For my first post after farms return: lolcow.tv gets equivalent views and more chatters playing random videos than DSP does playing 3 day old games.

And after some technical difficulties we're now back to regular news!

This is his patreon before our site blew:
goal in limbo 1.jpg
Weird how it doesn't say Reached despite being exactly on the buck.

Well this is patreon now:
goal in limbo 2.jpg
Looks like Vidar Mystery Donator took DSP warning and lowered his pledge to avoid another 100 getting taken from him tonight. Too bad it's now under the goal again.
Can't wait for the pigroach' reaction to this.

Ahahah, less than one day left of September not even enough time for Pigroach to do a new emergency vlog.

 

[BatChatillon]

Yesterday Phil streamed Cuphead, and here are some impressions:

- Despite having butterfingers, he didn't perform as bad as Dean Takahashi, but also wasn't that good to brag about.
- Since the game can be bought via Twitch, Phil didn' trash-talk the game and its developers, and also tried to avoid foul language as much as possible ("what the flip?")
- He stalled starting the game for a good chunk, with a long pre-stream and talking into the intro of the game, which included singing over the chorus of the intro.
- While stream chat can barely help him, they managed so because Phil knew instantly that he has to "parry" pink enemies and projectiles to raise his special attack meter. Later on he miraculously realized that he can dodge under a certain enemy he can barely jump over, right after reading the stram chat.
- Phil died a total of 79 times, with about being half-way through the game. A good thirty percent of his deaths came from the boss named Grim Matchstick, a dragon he failed to memorize the telegraphed attacks repeatedly. Took him 30 minutes to beat this boss, right after his 20 minute break.
- Phil bought an upgrade which gave him an extra heart (so he can get hit another time without dying) but lowers his overall attack damage. Without that upgrade he would have died many times more. He also bought a second upgrade which would give him another heart (and lowering his damage further) but he forgot to equip it.
- The lowered damage means that he takes way longer to defeat bosses, the final fight before the end of the stream session dragged on forever since he also equipped a secondary shot type and failed to hit like 80 percent.
- In the jump and run levels he didn't do terrible, but already cheesed his way through because some mini-bosse appear on the edge of the screen and can be shot but still don't trigger their attacks, which Phil proudly made use of. One mini-boss also seemed to have glitched out.
- Phil died during one boss fight the same time the boss died but unlike Mega Man X3 back then the game gave him a pass and counted it as a level finish.
- At no point did he perform outstandingly good, and with the exception of the Grim Matchstick fight he didn't rage that much. He also didn't shit on the game (it's actually pretty good looking but short) but that may change since the tough bosses are yet to come.

He'll probably just say that the person already lowered their pledge after they were charged, so the goal is still hit.

He's going to do some form of patreon fuckery to ensure that the Halloween marathon happens.

The way he has it set up only new Patreons are charged instantly. He has the same number of Patreons in both screenshot, he might just have gone ± zero between the two screenshots but more likely someone raised their pledged and brought it back down again right before being charged. Think you get charged at the start of each month so this is money that he never saw.

No, he gets the money regardless of whether it's a new or increased pledge.

Shoot, yeah you're right. Well that sucks.

[James Smith]

I'd like to point out that he's going into next month starting at $870. Unless he's going to get 11th hour one-time pledges/pledge increases in excess of $255 again and again, I doubt he's going to be hitting his $9001 $1250 $1125 goal from now on.

Every month Phil's Patreon generates the same mini-drama--all over whether he'll play a shitty game or wear a shitty costume. Perhaps people liking your content and wanting to support you makes for a more successful Patreon than doing the same thing month after month, begging and feeling entitled due to your "8 year legacy."

Fun point to note, you get effectively nothing but a thank you from MisterMetokur's Patreon campaign other than access to 11 patron-only posts which I can't even find going back 3 months. Meanwhile Dave is trying his damndest to convince people they get something out of giving him money and people might not believe it anymore.
