DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Destro1986]

Once I got actual legit angry at Phil. It was when he joked about slapping the shit out of a little girl. Never expected to lose my temper over something Phil does or said but that stuck a craw up my asshole. I had to step away and ask why I spend time even talking about this petulant man child. I can't imagine what it is like for someone to seethe and for real hate watch (not the joking hate watch like laughing at his idiocy) dsp hoping to witness his chariot go up in flames. This is entertainment, just not the kind Phil wanted or expected.

The reason it makes me mad isn't because he's threatening a little girl. I've told 8 year olds I'll hit them in the face IRL cause some kids are assholes (and that kid was an asshole). It was because after he does it he acts so cocky and arrogant about it, like he's impressed with himself. It's gross.

12/26/18 Prestream - Minecraft No-Chill Stream: Ain't No Party Like #DSPityParty, 'Cuz A #DSPityParty Don't Quit

Spoiler: Pre Prestream Chat With Darksydephil

[2018-12-26 17:57:50 PST] darksydephil: hey all
[2018-12-26 17:57:57 PST] darksydephil: so im gonna use the restroom and take a shower, then we'll get set up
[2018-12-26 17:58:07 PST] darksydephil: im feeling shitty but this should be a fun chill stream so i think i'll be fine

Spoiler: A DSP Sick-mas

" All right, everybody. Good evening and welcome. *THROAT CLEAR* Ugh. How's everyone doing tonight? Hopefully, you're doing better than I am. I have not been doing so well. As I'm sure you can probably hear in my voice I am very congested. Uhm. Had, pretty much, a REALLY SHITTY two days. Uh. Actually, three days. Because, you know, I started off on Christmas Eve, that I was supposed to do a special podcast with all of you. And didn't happen, because I was so damned sick, and under the weather. And it continued on, through *THROAT CLEAR* all through yesterday. Christmas Day. *PIG SNOOOORRRTTT* Which, also, was supposed to be, you know, a day when I spend it all day with Kat. Which I did! Luckily. But, you know, it's certainly not the same, when you're feeling awful. And your whole throat is swollen up to the point where, you can't even talk or swallow. Uh. Because it's so painful. And, *LIP SMACK!* in reality, I was not able to, uh, TALK at all. Until, I'd say about, One to two p.m. today. Uhm. I was actually, you know, napping, for the second time of the day. And woke up, and FINALLY my throat swelling had gone, and I was like, 'Oh, wow! I can actually, like, speak now! What an amazing, uh, development! That I am actually able to use my vocal cords for the first time in two and a half days!' Uhm. *THROAT CLEAR* Even so, *LIP SMACK!* even so, guys. Uh. You know? There's no way that we're going to be doing, uh, crazy amount of content, or anything, right now. What we're going to do tonight, we're going to do, hopefully, and I say HOPEFULLY, a two hour stream of Minecraft. Because, Minecraft is pretty chill. There's not much a lot going on. It's pretty much just me talking with you guys and INTERACTING on what kind of stuff I should be focusing on. You know? And having some fun conversations and stuff. Uh. Back and forth. *LIP SMACK!* Uhm. So, you know, in regards to that. Uhm. You know, it should be a more relaxing stream. Where even though, yes, I'll be talking a lot, it's not a stream, where, like, I'm going to be, like, OVERLY WORKED UP or anything. You know what I mean? Like I should be able to just talk with you guys normally. And, uh, you know, things will go all right."

Spoiler: Darksydephil Lays Out An Excuse For An Early Clockout Time

"Uhm. So, just so you guys know. Eh, uh, you know, tonight, around roughly, two hours of Minecraft. I HOPE. It all depends. Because, right now, I'll be HONEST. I have a very, VERY, heavy sinus pressure in my head. And I have taken maximum strength decongestants, and it's enough to let me breathe. But, I can really feel it, like, above my, my eyes, in my forehead. The sinus pressure that I got. So. As long as I'm okay and I don't get a splitting headache. We should be all right. I actually haven't had too bad of a headache. Uhm. *THROAT CLEAR* So it should be all right. Uhm. I HOPE!"

Spoiler: Darksydephil Can't Change His Self-Appointed Schedule

"Uhm. Friday, *CONDESCENDING CHUCKLE* is actually my day off! Which I know is crazy, because, it's not like I just didn't have two days away. It's not like they were days, that I actually got to, uh, RELAX! It was days that I was SUFFERING! Uhm. And this Friday, I actually have a few things, I HAVE to do on Friday. Including, I have a HAIRCUT APPOINTMENT. So, this Friday, I HAVE TO TAKE OFF. So, it kind of sucks. I know. I'm going to be back for tonight and tomorrow, and then Friday, I'm off again. But, THAT'S LIFE! You know? There's not much I can do about it. If anything, maybe it'll give me an opportunity to relax, AGAIN. Which is GOOD, after, you know, a day and a half of TALKING on stream. *THROAT CLEAR* *LIP SMACK!* All right? So then, we'll see what happens this weekend, starting Saturday. I don't even know. I don't even want to promise you guys anything, at this point. Because, I know, I feel awful. I sound terrible. The only reason I'm back tonight, is because I finally got my voice back. You know? I coudn't even DO THIS, as of earlier today. *THROAT CLEAR* *LIP SMACK!* So. We'll see. We'll see how stuff goes and go from there. Okay, everybody? "

Spoiler: Darksydephil Moves Forward Positively

"Thanks guys, for obviously being patient, during the days that I was sick. And I still don't feel good. But, thanks for being patient during those days, I appreciate it. Uhm. *THROAT CLEAR* I know that many of you actually cheered. Uhm. Some cheers during the time away. I apologize, there's NO WAY I'm going to be able to do, like, a half an hour of reading those cheers tonight. You know? But, I want to say thank you to everyone who sent me positive messages, everyone who cheered. Even though, there was quite a lot of SCUMBAGS, who sent me really nasty, negative, insulting messages as well. Uhm. DUMBASS PEOPLE with CONSPIRACY THEORIES, like, I'm faking my illness. Which makes no fucking sense. *SMUG CHUCKLE* Yes, I'm faking my illness to not do the Holiday Podcast, that traditionally gets a lot of attendance and actually makes me SOME GOOD MONEY. Yeah. I'm faking an illness to not do it. And people are SO FUCKING DUMB. That I don't even want to get into it, because it's just going to get me upset. But. *THROAT CLEAR* *LIP SMACK!* You know, I just want to say thanks to everyone who was, *LIP SMACK!* uh, very, very, uh, POSITIVE. And thanks to those who are patient. I apologize. Obviously, I had no plans to get sick like I did. Uhm. And it sucks that it happened. Okay?"

Spoiler: Ramen Talk

[2018-12-26 19:09:14 PST] derichloveslemur: @darksydephil Did you have any soup when you were sick?

"Not soup, per se. I'm trying to remember what I did have. A lot of tea. And today, I actually had some RAMEN. But, no Official Soup, because we don't have any soup! We didn't have any here at home."

[2018-12-26 19:10:50 PST] dsp_t_pose_counter: @darksydephil eat some ramen loaded with hot sauce to clear the sinuses

"Yes, dsp_t_pose_counter, I did actually have SPICY RAMEN today. And, it did actually help for a while to clean out my sinuses."

~ SOME CHILL GAMEPLAY SHENANIGANS ~

Spoiler: CHILL Streamer, Darksydephil, Deals With A Glitch

"So, for absolutely no explainable reason, the game, instead of spawning me underground where I was setup for a mining expedition, spawned me at my original spawn point. Dropping me into the middle of the sky. Then dropping me onto the ground and killing me. Making me lose all of my items, and EXPERIENCE. As you can see now, I had THIRTY experience and now I only have SEVEN. Even though, I did absolutely nothing wrong. This is not the experience I wanted to have, playing Minecraft, starting out tonight. And I'm going to be honest, this is FUCKING HORSESHIT. And the fact that Microsoft bought this game, and apparently made it worse. *SMUG LAUGH* It's pretty disappointing. Like, what the fuck were they thinking?? What did they do? They fucked the game up. Uh. I mean, am I wrong? *THROAT CLEAR*

Spoiler: Begging

[2018-12-26 19:15:11 UTC] twitchnotify: SuperBatCat just subscribed with a Tier 2 sub. SuperBatCat subscribed for 22 months in a row! [SubMessage]: You feeling better Phil ?

"NO. I can talk, but I still feel like shit. I do. I feel awful. *PIG SNORT* But, you know, being away for two days, with no streams. Not a good idea. When I need to raise money to pay my BILLS, in less than a week. So. I have to be here as much as I can. Even though, Friday, I HAVE to be off. So. *CHUCKLE* Things are just not working out so well for me, recently. Just being honest here. They're just not. Uhm. But, there's not much I can do about it. I guess, I'm just going to be SCREWED for January, and just NOT PAY any of my bills or something. I don't know. I don't know what else to do anymore."

Spoiler: DSP Can't Take Time Off To Get Better, Needs To Beg

[2018-12-26 19:39:33 PST] dakkysmurf: @darksydephil think it would be possible to just take the week to recoup?

"Well, considering, right now, I don't have enough money to pay my bills, the first week of January. And, I don't receive payment from Twitch until the middle of the month. Uh. I'd say, 'No.' I'd say, I have to be here to WORK and RAISE MONEY, or else I can't pay my bills. You know? Just being honest and real here. If I don't pay my bills, uh, I won't have internet. I might, uh, you know, uh, I won't have anything. I have to WORK."

Spoiler: #DSPityParty

[2018-12-26 20:00:05 PST] eye_am_the_night: you shouldn't overwork yourself just because it's christmas, sometimes overworking doesn't equate to better quality output. I personally got a headache from your wressling game during the marathon coz you were yelling so much cheer50

"I hear ya. For me, again, just being very real with all of you. I'm very, very worried about MONEY. This year has not been a good year for me, MONEY-WISE. Because of my different factors, that I will explain on my podcast, when I get to do it. Hopefully, tomorrow. And, it's stuff that I can't really fix or change. It's stuff tha-, that's just changing around ME. And, it makes me very worried about the future. To the point, where like, you know, the only way that I can make more money is to WORK HARDER, or WORK MORE. STREAM MORE. Do more content, right? That's the only way I can think of, to fix this situation, that I can control. And, that's why I said, nine straight days of streaming without a break at all. My voice was completely shot. I took one day off, that really wasn't a day off, because I ended up going out and doing stuff, like, ERRANDS and stuff with Kat. And then when I came back, I overworked myself AGAIN, with the Christmas weekend stuff. And, you know? It just ended up kind of backfiring, and, 'cuz people didn't actually turn, TUNE in necessarily for the Holiday stuff, like I thought they would. Like they had previously. *THROAT CLEAR* So, it ended up being a bust for me. You know? OVERWORKING myself and really not getting anything out of it. And then getting sick on top of it. So. *PAUSE* I hear you, ya never know. You don't really know. In the modern day, it's hard to tell what works and what doesn't anymore. And what people are going to like and what they're not. I've always done the wrestling sims and they were always a hit. This year they were kind of a bust. The Holiday Marathon was a huge hit, this year it was a bust. Right? A-and, what was different? Uhhhhhh. I don't know."

[2018-12-26 20:01:55 PST] derichloveslemur: Cya and night @darksydephil I’m wishing you a speedy recovery.

"See you later, derich. It's definitely a learning experience, eye_am_the_night. Like, what I think I need to do, is, I need to think SMART, about what I want to do with my time. Rather than it just be, 'Okay, just put out more content.' Put out SMART CONTENT. Or, if I'm going to OVERWORK myself, make sure that it's gonna pay off. Or, that it's something you guys want to see. I don't know. Like, it's very difficult to figure this stuff out, at this point. Because the market is OVERSATURATED, so I don't know what I'm going to put out that you guys are necessarily going to like. Previously, whenever I did Holiday-themed specials, people LOVED them. So, it's kind of SHOCKING that people just didn't dig it this year. You know?"

Spoiler: Darksydephil Does Not Run From His Past

[2018-12-26 20:04:40 PST] mashlabrador: charity100 Glad you are well enough to stream. What did you get for Christmas? My gift to you: In your Heavy Rain play through, you say the N word in one of your vids, you should delete that. It is problematic #charity

"That is from QUITE A LONG TIME AGO. That is the kind of thing, I don't do anymore. And, it's been on YouTube for quite a long time. And, even though, MORONS would bring it up and say, 'Oh, look. This is who Phil is as a person.' In reality, we all know it's NOT, 'cuz it's such a rarity that anything like that ever happened. Uhm. And the bottom line is, that there's no reason to run from your past, as long as you've learned from it. You know what I mean? *PAUSE* I'm certainly not worried about it."

I'll be honest, I prefer Sicksydephil. He sounds more subdued and isn't prone to dropping barely coherent word salad rants as DSP usually is. Even as he was laying down DSP Guilt Trips and Pignosis on his paypigs, listening to him wasn't as punishing as it usually is. It's weird that he actually sounds more like the Chill Streamer, he's half-assedly trying to market himself as, when he's sick and miserable, then when he's not sick.

 

[AuthenticItalian]

Well said and what feels like his inevitable end. When those last drops of blood are squeezed from the stone, and Phil has to shutter the business doors he will reflect back on his epoch and still blame his detractors. The most realistic outcome I can see based on his personality, health, skill and luck is he rides this circus until it is dried up than apply for disability selling the condo and living in his childhood home after inheriting it from his deceased parents. Then, he will go back to making shitty YouTube videos on his camera phone again.

I can see that, his property has gone up by quite a bit FYI, it was sold for $265,000 and the rough estimate is $400k-$435,000. I don't think he can go on disability but most likely he'd get a menial part time job. Nobody wants to hire a guy who has been out of work for 10+ years and the first thing you search up of his is masterbaiting in front of the camera. He also has 0 related jobs for anything Business related too. It's looking bleak.

Our current estimates put him $300k-500k in debt right now. He's already there buddy.

I think he purposefully over dramatizes his debt, given at the height of a couple years he was clearing a minimum of $100-$125k a year. Not to mention he also has a "Business degree" I know he's fairly dumb but I can't imagine somebody being this incompetent even though it's Phi. At worse he can sell his real adult house for a decently sized profit and live and rent something else.

His property numbers alone put him over $200k. $300k assumes a pretty lowball figure for credit cards.

It's really easy to be $500k in debt when you make $100k a year. I know people in million dollar houses who are dead broke cause of all their bills.

Never underestimate the power of Phil's willful ignorance.

The reason it makes me mad isn't because he's threatening a little girl. I've told 8 year olds I'll hit them in the face IRL cause some kids are assholes (and that kid was an asshole). It was because after he does it he acts so cocky and arrogant about it, like he's impressed with himself. It's gross.

His arrogance is difficult to deal with definitely. Like I said, I didn't expect to get so angry but he found a way. Wishing ill on Phil is pretty normal if you watch his antics enough, but it's more fun when I'm not emotionally invested.

Can we just infect Phil with a perpetual rhinovirus strain so he'll chill out? I think I like SSP more than normal Phil. When he's toned down, he's bareable.

On that note; why doesn't Phil blaze it? I feel like weed would kilter him out A LOT. It just seems like it might have that effect on him anyways.

But that would be assuming he'd want to treat his "tism" medicinally in any shape.

 

[Agentsmith]

Thanks to flatsoda as always for getting transcripts of D$P's delusions.

Just wanted to highlight some real mental gymnastics / 'nothing I could do' moments:

"And, it's stuff that I can't really fix or change. It's stuff tha-, that's just changing around ME. And, it makes me very worried about the future. To the point, where like, you know, the only way that I can make more money is to WORK HARDER, or WORK MORE. STREAM MORE. Do more content, right? That's the only way I can think of, to fix this situation, that I can control".

Comment:
It's never his fault. He cannot self reflect at all. It's the world is changing - not that his khantent is bad. And the only way to survive is MORE khantent - not to improve what junk he does. For a very recent example - that D$P tries it eating cereal from a box was beyond pathetic.

"I took one day off, that really wasn't a day off, because I ended up going out and doing stuff, like, ERRANDS and stuff with Kat. And then when I came back, I overworked myself AGAIN, with the Christmas weekend stuff"

Comment:
Embarrassing comments really. A day off was stressful...from sitting on a couch playing games and talking to a computer.... Right

"And, you know? It just ended up kind of backfiring, and, 'cuz people didn't actually turn, TUNE in necessarily for the Holiday stuff, like I thought they would. Like they had previously. So, it ended up being a bust for me. You know? OVERWORKING myself and really not getting anything out of it...In the modern day, it's hard to tell what works and what doesn't anymore. And what people are going to like and what they're not"

Comment:
It's clear all he wants is money; and positive recognition that he is a 'clever and funny khantent Creator'. It's all about what he gets out of it.

I actually believe he thinks his junk streams deserve acclaim and $150k+ a year... But if he earned that amount he'd spend it anyway

oh he can find better then part time...and he knows it. I deal with HR types on a daily basis...a degree gets your foot in just about any door...and it’s utterly amazing how quickly they’ll ignore red flags to fill a position.
Phil is just one of the most exceptionally lazy people I’ve ever seen...so obviously he’ll milk his present “job” to the bitter end.

Yeah the pay pig front is not looking too fabulous to Dave he has what GoldenCotes left Swagginz is borderline troll/exceptional at this point and he lost Kekon and Grazy and their friend in one swoop after the 9k email surfaced

[LiquidCancer]

NOTHING makes me lose respect for a "content creator" more than if every single fucking tweet is accompanied by a stupid gif that they just pulled up from some normie website. You could post a clip of your latest stream, you could post a photo of yourself currently (not 5-8 years old like all your emotes), you could take the time to record a 15 second video to accompany the tweet, but nah... just use a gif of someone else.

He posts gifs like he just discovered them. But he’s known to be like 5 years behind the entire planet mainly because he’s sheltered off from the waking world in his cave of misery.

 

[Wurstbrot]

I just watched Dave's Minecraft stream at Mighty D's, where his voice was gone.
And holy shit. He sounds like a normal talking decent human, instead of the usual entitled asshole who thinks he's better than the whole world. Sure he's still wrong, but he sounds so much more genuine and it's so much easier to not get mad at him. He can have his opinion, I have mine, no problem. I never realized how much his "conman fake voice" pisses me off. He should really stop yelling in the microphone if this can result in this difference.

 

[dsflfdsl23012]

Which I don't understand quite why some people get more satisfaction from watching him suffer in such a seriously crippling manner. DSP is the premiere LOLCOW, good for jerking off, but it'll get sour if you mistreat it too much. DSP is not Nick Bates.

It comes down to 2 DSP detractors. The ones that laugh at him masturbating accidentally and forgetting to open a game in a unboxing video. And those that wanna see him get hit by a car.

Ngl I get uncomfortable when people start wishing ill on Phil. I love watching him rage and do dumb shit but all of that "I hope Phil suicides/living in cardboard box/etc" is excessive. I don't want anyone to end up homeless or killing themselves over something. He's just a dude on the internet who talks shit and dumb people stick around to give him money while other dumb people (like me) watch and laugh. The most I'd want is for Phil to get his internet taken away from him and go get a real job.

 

[Zeva_Adom]

Did it ever come out who sent Phil shit by mail?

Hate saying this but I feel like the people who really loathe DSP and wish actual death on him are exceptional people rife with jealousy. They see what he has as undeserved, insinuating that his lifestyle is something to be prized. It's not of course, but why else would people want a fuck up loser to die over playing video games for a living? Is it unfair he makes so much doing it? Maybe, but people are giving him money for it so they set the price in some ways. Laugh at the baffoon slipping on the banana peel but don't hope he cracks his head open and dies from it. Relax your anal creases.

 

[Wing Zero]

That's what I think too; though Swagginz said the other day he never promised a 100k bit cheer.

I don't have the image on hand, but there's a chatlog of him literally saying "Mark. My. Words." in regards to him doing a giant Christmas cheer, so he's full of shit if he's claiming he never promised it.

 

[Sparkletor]

There are 5 days left in 2018. Any bets on if Phil has even started working on his top games of the year video?

 

[HansGruber]

What we're seeing here is him allowing reality to peek out from behind the veneer. Phil took a quick glance at his future trajectory and fell into a deep funk that even his iron clad ego machine hasn't figured out how to beat. He probably is sick, he probably does feel like crap, he really doesn't want to do anything and mostly likely has no plan B for when his quarterly goals aren't met. Don't worry though, give him time to rev up and he will be back up in no time to amaze us all with his mental gymnastics. He's not faking it guys. He's tasting defeat.
