Slightly off-topic but I've always wondered something, and this seems like a good time to ask someone.

I've heard Phil complain that doing "DSP Tries It" with fast food is no longer financially viable with ad revenue and all that jazz. He complains that the cost of the meal is more than the return on ad revenue, so he doesn't do it anymore.

Question: Has Phil ever responded to the very obvious kicker that that money he spends on fast food is money that he would spend anyway (like everyone) to get calories in his stomach? Why does he write off money spent on "DSP Tries It" food like it's flushing an investment down the toilet?

I have little doubt that this guy enjoys shitty food while either out with Kat, or at home as the result of a bloated grocery bill spent on ready-made meals. He could just get a camera out when he's hungry, and when he decides to try one of those gimmicky new sandwiches that Burger King and McDonalds release every season. He would just have to maybe set a phone reminder for himself telling himself that he doesn't need to shell out more money to eat food because he just. did. that.

This idea seems like the center of the bullseye for him since he loves to double-dip his content for more $, since he can do the same with the awful food he eats. I'm baffled as to why he doesn't.

I think it's because he doesn't understand that sometimes businesses, big and small, operate at a slight immediate loss for massive long term gain. Example: restaurant near where I live sent out a food truck once and gave away free food. Now, the truck, the supplies, the labour? Not cheap. But have I gone back to that restaurant like 15 times since then? You bet. People go out of their way to go there, a number of them either exposed to the truck, or know someone exposed to the truck. He talks about how he'd spend 15 bucks on a meal and then get 4 back in ad revenue. He'd be fulfilling the demands of his donaters, if he really wanted to he could put it behind a patreon paywall and lose 60 bucks a month for a once a week video, but make a profit of 500. In his head, if it's not an immediate return on investment, it's valueless to him and not worth the time or effort. Fuck, I'm not a business guy but even I understand the worth of investing in a business.

Just a note. Phil's Muxy appears to be still active. Remember that he has this method of payment linked in the video description of many of his videos, and may still be receiving positivity from those who don't watch the live-streams.

So it's either that or the 3 cans of 'Hunts Tomato Paste' or 'Kraft Parmesan Cheese and Wood Pulp Anti-Caking Agent' in a tube (:_(

Lol of course he fucking uses Spice Islands brands, it's the most expensive one. That bottle cost 5 bucks at Walmart and probably more at Phil's high end grocery stores. You could get 10 times that amount of Lawry's for the same price, and since it's going in a sauce you're not going to notice a difference.

If you skimmed past mollymawk's excellent post, it cannot be stressed enough that you NEED to listen to this clip to fully understand how fucking broken DSP's mind is. He will tell you an incorrect-in-every-way definition of a word and tell you that if you think otherwise, "you're a fuckin idiot. huh huh. If you were taught something different, you were taught the wrong thing!"

Phil has no concept of actually being broke. Absolutely none. Stop even considering that he's living tip to tip. His idea of hardship is not being able to spend money because it's raining.

Wasn’t he a business major? You’d think he’d know this already but I’m sure the years of doing easy things on YouTube for tons of money has rotted him

Yea and every time someone called him wrong he changed his definition slightly every time he was asked to repeat it. I’d like to think normal people would just say my bad I was wrong or something but not dark. Dude has to be right on everything/nothing is his fault

I cannot begin to say how pathetic it is that Dave is still playing Madden on rookie. He's literally bragging about a TD where the extremely smart and competent AI defense missed 7 tackles on a play.

Playing rookie mode in and of itself is not that pathetic: DSP is not a sports game guy and sometimes you just want to body the AI a few times.

His REASONING is pathetic and one the most manchild/whining/delusional things I think I have heard from him: DSP "worked his fucking ass off" to throw his teammate the ball but the defense caused a fumble, thus negating all of DSP's hard work. DSP then ragequit the Pro difficulty because it "does random stupid shit to fuck you over and that's not fun. Seriously, go fuck yourself, EA! Don't put random stupid shit [fumbles] in your game!"

DSP said that was "terrible gameplay" and that EA "doesn't know how to make [football] games in the modern era" because they put random fumbles in their game.

This was ONE fumble by the way, and it caused him to go on a three minute rant and start banning people.

Start at 4:20.

EDIT: He just paused the game to point out how everyone in the game was wearing sweaters and you could see their breath IN FLORIDA. He then ranted about how it never gets cold in Florida. Yeah, it just never gets cold in Florida at all. It’s in the South, dood... I wish I could send him the video of the Challenger disaster. The reason the Challenger exploded is because the sub-freezing early morning temperatures effected the O-ring that failed on the shuttle’s rocket booster. By the time the Challenger launched it was only 35 degrees Fahrenheit by around noon. But that’s unrealistic. The diarrhea that flies out of this dude’s mouth...


Getting really tired of these Madden streams. We really get to see Phil’s attitude when it comes to competitive games in general and how he probably acted as a child. I remember playing board games or card games with certain kids when I was young who would pitch a fit when things wouldn’t go their way. Guarantee you that Phil would be the kind of kid that would start crying and accuse you of looking at his pieces if you sunk his battleship.

It’s perfectly okay and “realistic” when, in pro football, his running back can break eighty yard touchdown runs and break seven tackles three times a game, but the game is “unfair” and “unrealistic” when it dares to score, or when the opposing team intercepts his pass, or if his player fumbles. I think the only rules DSP knows about football is that you need ten yards to get a first down, and the object of the game is to score touchdowns or field goals. I’m also convinced that half the time, DSP doesn’t even pass the ball after he presses the button to hike the ball, because the game passes it for you if you don’t press any buttons. His ignorance and child-like competitive attitude really shines through in these Madden sessions.

DSP REALLY REALLY hates RNG, to the point where I believe DSP thinks RNG is bad game design. That's why he hates it when the computer intercepts him or causes a fumble as I showed in the video above: he thinks it's random (dindu noffin wrong), and random is bad.

I really first noticed it during the legendary Ludwig fight: one of DSP's chief complaints was that Ludwig had more than one attack that it could do in a given situation and that it was bullshit game design because it was impossible to learn the pattern if Ludwig could do more than one thing.

DSP is stuck in the boss battle design mode of 25 years ago.

It shows he's not a sports guy. It's common to dribble and pass to a open team mate only for him to miss the goal from point blank. Or to drive to the hoop and pass to a guy wide open in corner for a three and he bricks it.
Shit it's sports, it's part of the charm and drama that goes into it. Even Curry fucks up threes, Lebron messes up dunks, Ronaldo fucks up a penalty or Messi misses a sure goal.
Phil is just a retard, he's the one friend everyone has who watched one game that one time and always says he's a huge fan of the sport. He just wants to body the AI and feel good about himself, zero challenge and difficulty.
Like in his latest stream he complained about weather, made a whole deal out of it. He wants realism in weather conditions by location, but not realism in play.
