DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Vic Viper T301]

DSP has 117,000+ Gil. I played the game a long time ago, but that seems really excessive.

He's played this game for 37 hours, and I think he's barely halfway through, isn't he? I don't remember the last time he actually did a main quest mission.

Definitely more than halfway done. He's almost on the last disc IIRC. The stream chat told him about a trick to get essentially infinite money pretty early in the game (the cotton robe trick). They've also hand held him through all the choocobo minigame shit so he has endgame level equipment already.

Seriously, Phil, just stop playing games and become an IRL streamer. Your autistic fanbase will still give you money and you can finally stop wasting money on something you have no passion for.

I don't think he has a passion beyond spending money (which actually could be turned into something entertaining given some YT shows I've seen where people rate stupid shit they bought online). IIRC the most he does on his day off is drink shitty liquor and sit emotionlessly on the couch watching wrestling.

This has been recommended numerous times to him (at least on KF, not sure about his own fanbase).
One suggestion I specifically remember presenting on here myself was that he do "cooking with the king" in livestream format (which is allowed by Twitch). He could set up his cam in his kitchen and literally do subpar cooking live on stream and he'd probably get tons more money than he does playing any actual video game.

If DSP did a "cooking with the king" livestream every two weeks he'd easily rake in actual money, because people find his inability to cook food far more entertaining than his inability to play video games. He could easily try out new recipes every time he does the event, and the cooking ingredients would probably cost less than any new video game he'd just play for a few hours and wagequit.

It'd even be funnier if he set a tip goal to buy some stupid expensive ingredient like live lobster, bluefin tuna, kobe beef, horse or something similar which people would pay towards just to see him fuck up.

He'd not only get a lot of money, but also fill his stomach with food at the same time. There's literally no way such a concept could fail except he'd never even consider doing it.

Can you imagine the level of troll cheers and tips if DSP did a livestream show of him attempting to cook noodles? He could even fuck with his viewers by repeatedly pretending to try and use a spoon to handle the noodles while cooking. A better content creator would use the same concept just to fuck with their viewers.

It has also often been suggested that he do a sort of "call in" radio show where he discusses contemporary social and political issues. If not that, then a live "gaming news" sort of show...

But everyone already knows that DSP will never actually change anything about his shit. He'll just create new and better ways of avoiding any change in his schedule rather than come up with a few simple ways of actually creating original content.

 

[OneDaySon]

I think the reason that he doesn't become an IRL streamer is that every once in a while he finds a game he actually enjoys, while he always hates interacting with his stream, it's just something he puts up with to make money. So doing it all the time would be hell for him.

 

[actually]

Aaaaand someone donated him enough PSN credits to buy Dragon Quest Builders 2, he just said while returning from break. He'll be playing it tomorrow.

-edit- Clip for archival purposes:

I.e., "I got sick of waiting for one of you ingrates to give me kredditts to get it so I'm just getting it myself".

Keep trying, Phil. Even the Sty ain't buying it anymore.

You mean phil on the down low bought the game himself with the 200 plus dollars in tips he made this week but had to face the facts that nobody was gonna drop 60 bucks for a halfplayed game stream so Phil just said "Anonymous" in hopes his pay pigs would feel guilty and step up next time. It was his plan all along and funny enough none of pigs fell for this crap. Next week probably towards Thursday Dragon Quest 2 will be a crappy game because of some glitch or bugged game design- Phil logic.

It was either insomniaticmeat or someone seeking anonymity by the name of somegoy15555: https://overrustlelogs.xyz/stalk?channel=darksydephil&nick=somegoy15555

I posted more details in the wishlist thread.

if he tried it, it would only be things he already makes
it would be bland and boring (SO I JUST PUT THE TURKEY BURGER IN THE MICROWAVE OKAY?!)
then he'd cry about not making enough money to keep doing it (I NEED LIKE 65 DOLLARS PLUS TAXES, SOUND GOOD?!)
and if he fucked up in the slightest his ego would get hurt and it would be no go forever
and if he didn't like the new thing, it'd turn into an hour of him bitching about the wasted money, and how he's hungry, and now khet has to run out and get them food, and the trolls are trying ot starve him, and how it doesn't have 40 cups of sugar so it's stupid.
also kat wont want to be the living tripod all the time, so he's either going ot one hand it or put the camera on a counter and we couldn't be able to see shit, because buying a tripod is too much
and he'll stop to read chat every 10 seconds, probably burning something in the process and blaming the chat for it

It has also often been suggested that he do a sort of "call in" radio show where he discusses contemporary social and political issues. If not that, then a live "gaming news" sort of show...

discussing political issues, he would just read headlines and go "HMM SO THERE" or if it's more humorous "NUHUHUH" occassionally making a "JUST LIKE MUH DETRACTORS ARF ARF ARF ARF ARF!"
and if there's a hint of racism "WHEW GOOD THING IM MORE MATURE, OKAY?"

gaming news, again he'd just read headlines and either bitch about someone, bitch about something, or HMM SO THERE... and then go off on a rant about how people are stupid and buy into hype and how he's the REALIST STRIMMER and how other STRIMMERS are fake.

"Have I ever used painkillers or Xanax? No?!"

A back injury so bad that he can't drive, walk, move, or live a regular life, caused by a car accident that lit half his face on fire, but he never used painkillers. Ok.

 

[shekelshoah666]

He started his "might not be able to afford" for Ultimate Alliance 3 which comes out next Friday when he was talking about his schedule during his prestream so expect him to be pushing that early next week and probably adding it to his wish list soon.

He may just buy it since he gets paid this week. He can't beg for every single new release or people will tear him apart.

He can, his paypigs are stupid.

Has anyone else noticed that Dave has been snorting less lately? I only notice this because I used to have visceral reactions to each one of his gouty starting-a-lawnmower rips. Lately, not so much.

Is it a seasonal thing?

Maybe he has some sort of breathing/sleeping problem like sleep apnea. It'd also somewhat explain why he's so irritable all the time. Gout and sleep apnea (and conditions like it) are somewhat linked, and if you have one it can exacerbate the others, especially if you have a poor diet, don't exercise, etc.

DSP's latest rant: employers should use positive enforcement rather than negative enforcement. They should make you want to work for them; they shouldn't make you afraid of being fired.

What exactly is being paid by en employer if not positive enforcement? If that fails to motivate an employee to do the bare minimum the employee probably needs the fear of boss put into them.

Definitely not a story from DSP's experience of getting laid off and fired from almost every job he's ever had.

 

[Shambler]

Sorry for being off-topic and power leveling, but I'm actually in Seattle right now. To be honest I'm in Bellevue for a conference, but I took trips to Seattle Pike place market and the space needle throughout the week. (It's a week long conference.)

I briefly considered going around Phil's haunts (all 3 of them), but instantly thought better of it. In my ideal scenario I would run into piggy at a public place and just, idk, be civil towards him, the same kind of civil that Terry Davis got towards his end game. (IE genuinely civil.) Maybe get an autograph or a pic with me shaking his hoove. I genuinely don't believe in poop touching.

Scenario 2, he tells me to fuck off and LIMBs away, so I tell his backside 'my brother loves your streams! He's always talking about you at the family reunions. Through his voice box. He's a paraplegic. His name is uhh, nihilistic fish? Goldfish? Something like that? Have you heard of him?' Is that poop touching?

Side note, holy shit, Seattle is a fucking hellhole. Nothing but troons and pride flags everywhere. Bookstores with antifa flags on the front display. I was on the phone with my girl and told her about the pride flags everywhere and I think I pissed off my Uber driver. My boss is an ass for telling me I'd love Seattle. At least in Bellevue all they care about is shopping so it's miles upon miles better, cleaner than She-sheattle.

i don't think i'd call it poop touching... maybe poop sniffing? your not trying anything against him your just... being normal but your intentions on being normal near phil aren't the best

He claimed yesterday, that his Twitch payment might not be enough to get him out of the red.


Either he is full of shit (most likely) or his multiple credit cards have finally caught up with him.

So much to unpack holy shit. Ok first off some dsp lore. He did have a call in show but it got ruined by that faggot from sok who is autistic about movies called loophole. He called in and trolled i forget what he said.

Cooking live stream meme would actually be great content and he woulf spend way less than 60 dollars on food.

Dsp's referance point is lol 2010 job market. No way he could keep up productivity of a 2019 job. Idk i think bosses need to have a balance of fear and respect. My boss tends to reward us if we work hard by pushing hard work onto someone else. But he's not scared to load us with work so there's a mutual fear and respect if that makes sense. My bosses boss will call you out if your a dumbass too so we all fear her lol.

A back injury so bad that he can't drive, walk, move, or live a regular life, caused by a car accident that lit half his face on fire, but he never used painkillers. Ok.

Yeah, i've felt for a long time he was bullshitting about his back. If you have a "severely herniated disc" you're going to be prescribed painkillers. Especially since his back injury happened about what, 10 years ago? ish? They were still handing out painkillers like candy at that time. They still are, but to a much lesser extent.

I remember him saying his mom, or dad( i forget which) had a severely herniated disc in the past, so I think he just copied their symptoms to excuse his lack of physical ability/laziness. "I can't help out around the house mom, my back dood!" "No, mom I can't just get a regular 9-5 job...my back hurts too bad!" "Sorry Leanna, I cant help carry in the groceries... remember? bad back!" shit like that.

 

[SowonNation]

Yeah, i've felt for a long time he was bullshitting about his back.

Him retconning the story of why his back is so bad should be a red flag to anyone.
First, he said it happened in a car accident; and around the time the Debunk Stream: Didn't Happen-Edition took place, he back paddled and wanted to sell everyone that it's related to his former job.
I remember why he retconned it too. Sungkwon asked in his chat "Why are you rocking back and forth on your loveseat like that?" and Phil took the bait and explained it to him in detail, but this time, it happened at work.

Kind of unfortunate when you're slowly but surely melting away your brain cells by downing a bottle of gin every night and get caught up in your own tangle of lies.

Sickness/summer cold when. Time to prime that pity pump so someone will step up and get him Ultimate Alliance 3.

That part about half his face being of fire that he tried to retcon into that accident story more recently was the biggest load of shit he’s ever said without a doubt. Imagining thinking there wouldn’t be some sort of lasting mark of half your face caught fire
