DSP: "I have to visit CT and see sick parents in 2019" - most dramatic event of all of 2019 so far

There's a least a 10 percent chance this trip is actually a disney trip. If he doesn't post any photos I feel the percent is higher.

That was actually my first thought too, especially since he had mentioned him and Kat wanting to go on vacation before. When the dates were revealed though, I shifted into the "his parents are giving him money" camp. It's close enough to tax season where he could have begged them for money. It's also close enough to his birthday where he could have guilted them out of money. Either way, I think we can all agree Phil is getting something out of the trip and isn't going out of concern for his perfectly healthy parents he might never see again because they are on death's door.

Has Kat expressed any interest or fandom at all for Disney, though? Is that deep lore? As far as I knew all the cracks made about going to Disneyland/world were when Leanna was still around and that was because she actually said she wanted to go. I always chalked any plans he supposedly had to take the soulmaid there to the fact that his relationship with her is following an identical trajectory as his last one.

The chances of this being true are approximately one trillion percent. Explains the fundraisers. He's asked for a certain amount from his parents ($10k or so) and he wants to raise $6k to cover the bulk of the rest.

This would also explain why he’s being so exceptional about the time he’s deciding to leave for the trip. One would think that with how long he was bitching about losing a week to “choking” with the common cold at Christmas that he wouldn’t take a week off during the “most important streaming month” of his life. Why couldn’t he just put off until right after the taxes or gasp the summer. It’s not like travel expenses would be that much more and he’d lose less all importantant “interactivity” ($$$$).:tugboat:

I’m still a firm believer he’s going to Wrestlemania. Everything lines up too perfectly.
This would be a Dave level prick move seeing as the demon horse has no interest in homoerotic wrasslin. I’m beginning to be inclined to think the bastard might try some shady shit like that. “These assholes found out that me and muh gurl went to wrasslemania, it’s not even that big of a deal, it’s not that expensive and muh gurl really wanted to try getting the true wrasslin experience by seeing it live!!!” (Think space needle mental gymnastics x1000)
 
I know I'm being exceptionally optimistic here, but maybe Phil's parents are paying for this because they want to sit him down and explain to him that his current lifestyle isn't sustainable, and he needs to do something about it now before it's too late.

You have a son who's pushing 40 and makes his living begging on the internet, who destroyed his last serious relationship with a woman you assumed he was going to marry and have kids with, then shortly after moved in this unknown person he barely knows and claims is his "soulmate." Wouldn't you want to have a serious talk with him?

I know his mom seems like a total enabler, but his dad seems like an alright, hard working guy. You'd think he'd want to sit down with his pasty 37 year old son, who has the physique of a school lunch lady due to years of neglect, and talk some sense into him.

Eh, who am I kidding, they'll probably give him a pat on the back and a sack of money because he's their special boy. Their pride and joy.

Oh this would be amazing!
Phil comes back and tells us detractors brainwashed his parents, he did nothing wrong, invents a new story about detractors contacting them, he did everything right, throws them under the bus, blames the mentally sick individual Tevin, says this is a terroristic attack on his life, how dare we bother his dying parents, now he won't get their money anymore and he will lose the house, now he puts his foot down and enough is enough, bans everyone in chat, a week later everything is normal again and we should not talk about waaay old stories about his parents and he is not toxic btw.

How often do you assume his parents watch his streams? I mean, if they miss him THAT much, wouldn't that be an easy way to see him? They have to check-in every once in a while and know how shitty he is.

Would you be able to watch your child lie and beg every second of his life to strangers? His father has worked his whole life, you think he wants to watch his kid burp and snort into a camera as blind and cripple people throw quarters at him?

I honestly don't think DSP would take a great opportunity for stability if he was offered it and Im sure his parents know that. Imagine, if you will, DSP arrives and does disney/wrestlemania/et cetera and whatever. As his visit comes to an end he goes to dinner with a his parents and family friend, and lets pretend that the family friend wants to hire dsp as a social media manager or even just a warehouse supervisory position. The point being: a well paid job but one that comes with the implicit dismantling of the DSP brand in favor of stability. Would Phil take it? Do you think Phil's parents would even recommend Phil to a friend given his obvious (lack of) work ethic?

No. IMHO, even in fantasy land, DSP's parents know exactly who he is and what he's about. They keep a roll out mattress for his inevitable future and hes probably willed anything to protect their exceptional baby boy. As any decent people would do ig.

Yeah Phil would not get a job even if his parents set him up with a good one,he has been fired or has quit every job he ever had because he is lazy and incompetent.Remember when he was single and said that he had a busy schedule because he had to cook? (that was right when we had the wardog leader incident). A real job would end him,after living a basically a NEET lifestyle for a decade he is incapable or handling real responsability.

Also lol at the idea of his parents giving him a reality check,dozens of people have alredy tried to tell Phil he has to change his ways in long,well explained posts in his forums or comments in other areas of the internet,I doubt that he would listen to his parents if they sat him down and talked to him,he is a narcisist who according to him does everything correct and all of his problems are because of someone else.

phil would bitch about his "responsibilities", cry about his "difficulties", and nod along while ignoring what they are saying
then as soon as he's home he'll start drinking while yelling "MY PARENTS DONT KNOW HOW HARD I WORK" and shit like that
 
His parents have given him birthday money in past years. It's possible they are keeping him afloat. This trip could be for a big amount. Maybe they are giving him his inheritance to save the house. That's why he mentioned them dying and bringing kat along.
"...well Philip, your mother and I thought that the plane tickets, the hotel room, lending you our car, paying for your meals and entertainment, and getting to see the cats was a good enough birthday present this year. I don't think we can give you seventeen thousand dollars..."

"WHAT THE FUCK DAD! ARE YOU A FUCKINH RETARD OR DO YOU JUST NOT LISTEN?! I TOLD YOU I NEEDED MONEY FOR TAXES AND I FLY ALL THE WAY OUT TO BUM FUCK CONNECTICUT AND I DON'T GET THE MONEY?! THIS IS JUST LIKE WHEN YOU DIDN'T GET WOLVERINE! YOU TWO NEVER LISTEN TO ME! REE!"
 
I cannot imagine what it's going to be like having him meet his parents again after all this time. He will have to interact with people outside his fantasy hug box who are not cashiers. You look at other streamers, they still go out, interact with people, even if it's autistic, they still socially interact. What does he do? Nothing. By his own admission, he has no friends other that Khet, doesn't go out, doesn't really interact with people.
 
With him leaving for this itll mean he has to be at an airport at least twice who knows maybe some of that weaponized autism can get flight date/time info as well as the airports.

Wouldn't recommend this, just for the record. But it wouldn't be too difficult would it? All you'd really need is the day and airport and if you're autistic enough I doubt time is a problem. I'd imagine he's departing from the closest airport both times. So I imagine if you found where that was and was really determined to find him it'd be simple.

Again, don't do this. But considering he's scared of people finding him he's doing a poor job hiding where he's going, when he's going and how long he'll be gone for. I just hope he's got someone keeping an eye on the house, broadcasting an empty property isn't a good idea at the best of times, never mind someone with a reputation like Dark doing so. As much as he annoys me I wouldn't want him burgled or anything.

I'm pretty sure he hasn't left the state of WA since he moved there. As far as we know.
