You get shit on by a prepubescent in a public forum and your career is done. There's no coming back from that, I knew he had little wit but that's just embarrassing.

If fighting with 11 year olds on video games was a career, then he would be the 4th place in the voice-disabled crybaby division.

 

[Keystone]

we really need a Cuck rating with how many of them DSP attracts

This is essentially that rating:

He needs to realize that he's as fat as ever, turning 36 next month and he's only going to get way worse frighteningly fast if he doesn't do something now. I'm not expecting him to become a bodybuilder, but 40 minutes of your day regularly doing some sort of cardio will do wonders.

He will unironically look like the avatar of that one poster in this thread (who I feel like a complete asshole for forgetting their name atm). It's the one where he's fatter, bald, skin even more ashen, and with a blue shirt. Also I know this keeps getting pointed out, but good lord his skin is drained of color and grey looking; it's not at all healthy or natural looking. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes actual weeks without sunlight. His circulatory system must be an absolute wreck, and with his lifestyle it's only gonna get worse with age.

I see peepul are (rightly so) shitting on Phil getting owned by that little kid. While I do agree with you all, I also agree with talking mad shit to some little brat online. Just don't be a little bitch about it like Phil. You make that kid cry like a grown man should.

How funny would it be if for like the 4-5th time since 2018 happened someone (Kat) was like "Yeah I can deal with your baggage" then after knowing him for a few hours cuts all ties and GTFOs due to how gravely they underestimated how much baggage there was.

As soon as she saw herself saying "this guys a bitch" she regretted her decision to be a living meme.

Can you imagine her talking to a friend and family member on the phone. They're asking how everything is and how she's doing. All of a sudden from the other room, "AH! C'MON THAT'S BULLSHIT! FUCK THIS STUPID GAME! THIS IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT! I'M DONE! FUCK THIS!" and then having to explain that is just your boyfriend working.

I agree with all of this. Although judging the pallor of his skin by amateur quality internet video is gonna be misleading. Any streamer/person that records video of themselves is going to look grey without professional lighting. Or in Phil's case, none whatsoever. Those that watch Tevon might remember his complaints about looking ashen before he got his proper lighting setup.

Don't worry, if Kat left in 3 months we will get an offhand "OH we decided to mutually break up a couple weeks ago" on stream followed by several months of convincing chat she was a terrible person and he's better off without her.

I assumed the answer to her family member's questions would just be soft sobbing into the receiver.

Sadly, Kat was disturbed mentally, and ummmm *snort* she decided to go back to her family *high-pitched fake laugh*. I think she needs some time to uhhh sort out her mental uhhhh *snort* .... *pause* uhhh mental problems ACK ACK ACK.

Hope she got permission from Phil 1st. He has to make sure she ain't talking to an actual man for a change.

 

[ForTheHoard]

I don't consider him to have ever been professional level. To me someone doing something at a professional level isn't someone who can get 4th place in a major tournament when a bunch of outside factors (other than their skill) align, nor is it someone who can win a minor tournament once a year a few years out of the 10+ they do that something. A professional is someone who is so good at something they can... do it as a profession. If you're not so good you can make a living doing it, you're probably not really all that good.

He's a pro in the same way that white people were professional basketball players before integrating with the negro leagues.

Can't link via phone but did anyone see his schedule saying that, starting now, all tip money goes towards taxes? What mother fucker, what did you do with all that previous money you said was explicitly going towards taxes?

That's a rhetorical, I already know. It's his fans that should be asking, though.

This what you mean?

Edit - Damn your rhetoricals, damn them.

It's his way of making his paypigs think he has no money. Look at the wording. He wants to use your money to pay his taxes. His money is for going out to eat and going to a hair stylist.

Free content with the caveat that you pay him for the privilege.

Also isn't this a good point? wasn't that a big part of his reasoning for moving?

He had no idea you had to pay taxes in Washington state if you ran a home business.*

*please ignore the video from when he moved to Washington and claimed the previous tenants were running a business out of their garage and were getting mailed bills for not paying business tax. Also ignore that they were getting actual bills because the government literally never gives you a number on how much you owe. Only idiot children would think that.

 

[werek89]

Holy shit, yesterdays stream was awful. You see VR Chat and Darkest Dungeon are his
weak points if he would have played further he would have had a nervous breakdown .
Remember a lot of people want him to play Kingdome Come Deliverance including me. Oh, wait i was blocked in his forum.

There is Nothing he could do!

 

[PieceofShet]

He only dared smacktalk when the kid wasnt there... thats how a big coward he is. Even on the internet he afraids to face people...

As much as I love to shit on DSP, I have to give him the benefit of the doubt over the state taxes. The main intention of the taxes and much of the legal wording is directed towards people who make use of Washington and its residents to generate income.

The biggest problem is that the laws haven't caught up with the 21st century. So Phil is probably not alone in having some sort of "internet business" suddenly become liable for state taxes.

I do think he was aware of state business taxes, but I do not think he was aware that his "business" was liable for them. I also think its very plausible that in the event of an audit (which is what has essentially happened) that exact figures will not be forthcoming until the papers have passed under the eyes of a few people. DSP often talks about writing things off for tax purposes, so its very possible that the number of items he writes off make the federal and state taxes not be interchangeable.

However, if you're making money through cutting edge methods (and YouTube has only been paying out for about 10 years, so its still cutting edge) then you have to be prepared for situations like this to happen. The same things happened to many internet businesses because of changes or differing interpretations of the law.

DSP is still trying to use these taxes as something that is "unfair" but he really is never prepared. He wasn't prepared for the YouTube adpocalypse, he wasn't prepared for sudden taxes, he wasn't prepared to play Getting Over It when it was actually popular.

Being prepared is largely boring and not rewarding. Its the reason why most people choose a 9 to 5 job over DSP's "career". DSP is particularly bad at being prepared, but "being prepared" and having astute foresight is a skill that few people have. If it was easy or commonplace then everyone would be starting their own fortune 500 companies.

Paging @TheyCallItNPD

It's remarkable how much worse his stream is doing now. It's not surprising that his streams are boring, but the fact that not only chat but subs are actually bitching is almost surreal. Even Amityville on the forums is having a tough time being unyielding loyal, the facade kinda slipped on the last post I saw from him.
