DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Muppetmode]

My bet is he's just sowing the seeds for some story for him to use down the road. It's no mystery why we always bitch about the quality of writing for each season. It's Phil who writes it all. That or he's just trying to turn a hangover into something that makes him look good. Phil's a dutiful son who always lets his parents know how he's doing and checks on them!

Phil doesn't say anything to his chat unless it's meant to benefit him in some way.

Again, if this were real, HOW did DSP get so massively overdrawn so quickly? The Jasper reveal was five weeks ago. The week after that, he got his August Twitch payment. He was fine then (he stated so).

Somehow in a month's time, DSP is claiming he got himself thousands of dollars overdrawn.

The only thing I can even fathom (if DSP is telling the truth), is that the Jasper and August money got him out of a hole and back to a zero balance and maxed out credit limits. Then his September 1st bills were due.

My head hurts trying to think of this logically.

couldve just out a lot towards his debt, which is kinda dumb if you still end up paying overdraft fees. Wish I could see how much he’s accumulated over the years

It's just incredible to me that a guy that can't break 400 viewers has at least one guy every stream willing to give him 50%-100% of what he wants. Almost every stream.

I think what happens is he is autistic. This draws in more autistic people that see a friend and hear a sad story. Thus they start throwing money at him.

Considering how much debt the kid (lol) has, especially given his shit rating means his interest rates must be unbearably high, it would be reasonable to assume that most if not all of Phil's bill payments go towards interest only and don't even chop into the meat of his monthlies.
He is utterly screwed regardless of the seemingly endless rotation of self-floggers who chuck thousands at him then finally see the light.

Someone brought up his alcohol use. The one disorder I remember being brought up was Korsakoff’s Syndrome. I'm not sure about this, but some signs are showing. Though his overall bad health habits could explain some of it.

I doubt Phil currently suffers from KS, not because his health doesn't demonstrate the potential, but because according to google if he had gone through the onset of it, his own incompetence would have killed him before then. Its basically preceded by a stroke-but-not-stroke, a medical emergency I as a casual observer do not see Phil surviving in his manse of dust and cats, nor being robust enough to avoid.

He isn't just talking about this month. He says this is a cycle that happens every month.

So the good news is: the immediate future, meaning the next two weeks, things won't be so bad for financially, but then early next month things will get bad again. That's what happens every month because of this'

You're supposed to believe he is overdrawing his account, continuing to pay bills racking up overdraw charges, then things get settled when his Twitch check comes in, but oh shit a chunk of that check is missing because he kept charging bills to an overdrawn account. To top it all off this has been his normal routine for months/years with no effort made to stop this easily preventable problem.

There is probably a snippet of truth in there somewhere, but it's wrapped up in too much bullshit to bother looking.

Sick Systems: How to Keep Someone With You Forever | Issendai.com

How do you keep a lover or employee bound to you? You create a sick system.

www.issendai.com

I have to remind myself, "there will always be a crisis", "there will always be a crisis", "there will always be a crisis".

A normal serious person would have 1 fundraiser (we know DSP is not above that), and say "Alright, this fundraiser will go straight to one of my credit card balances and then all my bills go to that card so that I never overdraft again!"

But then I remind myself, "there will always be a crisis", "there will always be a crisis", "there will always be a crisis".

In today's Phil puts his own words in someone else's mouth moment of the day, he claimed that "I was told by, over a year ago, by the person who was my direct contact at Twitch, that if viewers are being stupid and/or insulting me or saying dumb stuff, that you know, is obviously to incite stuff, that I can insult them as much as I want as long as it's not about their physical appearance."

Now I know that this just a twisting of the words of whatever form letter Phil got about the suspension for picking on that dude's picture, but the fact that Phil manipulated what should have been a punishment and a learning experience to actually empower himself to be even more of an asshole shows exactly why he never improves anything about his life or streams.

 

[gaarashatan]

DSP is already prepping his audience for the next bad financial situation in about two weeks during today's pre-stream:

View attachment 937882
















'I do have some good news: I did get paid by Twitch. It's currently being processed by my bank. I should have my weekly (???) Twitch payment processed within the next one or two days. Either today it'll clear or tomorrow usually, at the latest.
The bad news is: I was MASSIVELY overdrawn on my bank account by the time that this happened, so even though I'm getting paid, I'm going to be backed by a lot of money.

So the good news is: the immediate future, meaning the next two weeks, things won't be so bad for financially, but then early next month things will get bad again. That's what happens every month because of this'

No idea why he said "weekly Twitch payment", btw.

-edit-

Gets $10, the biggest tip of the day so far. Uses it to guilt-trip people into giving him more by mentioning today has been slow so far:

Sigh.

if only there was some way you could like sell a house, and downgrade into a smaller place... and get a part time job with benefits for your very much upcoming health issues due to a poor life style... and make extra money streaming too and not have financial issues...

hey i got an idea, why dont you ask your soulmate, you know that person who understands you down to your very core and will take a bullet for you so whats a couple hundred bucks? literally nothing, ive given fam over 5k before. so why dont you ask her if you could borrow some money so you stop getting overdrawn and having a negative account? is that too much to ask? is that insane to talk to your life partner about a very real scenario in both your lives that affects you both? i wouldnt know cause i only have had relationships in games cause im mentally ill

Dood! Kat has her own bills that as her husband I am not privy to in any way for some reason! She can't be helping me with rent or utilities or anything that should make my life easier considering I'm now sharing a house in a dual income household instead of just by myself. Somehow my financial situation has gotten worse since Kat moved in instead of better!

Also, apparently the quality of my internet is directly tied to the quality of my house. If I moved into an apartment, the streams would be worse because my internet would be worse! There's no way to get the internet I have now in an apartment!

Also, if I streamed at 480 then I will get less money because my fans will for some reason donate less money to be if my bitrate is worse! Don't you know stream bitrate is directly tied to contributions!

He probably legit got over drafted at one time and mentioned it on a stream and got a lot of $$$ from it and it's a pretty easy issue to bring up to his fan base so he decided to go with it monthly. I highly doubt he is legit overdrawn multiple times every month he could just manual pay his bills late a few days and probably pay much less in fees.

Now that I think about it he always says he spends hours paying bills but who would overdraw themselves knowingly unless it was like a final notice to pay?

I think the last time I overdraft’d was college...so I’m not familiar with the current info. But, are banks really letting a person overdraft by hundreds of dollars several times a month?

In my experience, no, but if it's true Phil's sitting at a near-zero balance every month and constantly paying overdraft fees, he's getting no interest and making the bank a bunch of money, so in theory they'd let it continue?

I just think he's using "overdrafted" because it's a scary word to all the people who are terrible with money who donate to him.

While the story Phil expects people to believe is absurd, Googling overdraft protection the amount they cover is anywhere between $200 all the way to $5,000. In theory his bank could cover a high amount and Phil could overdraft like he says then when his Twitch money is deposited the bank takes what he owes. Why anyone, even someone as bad at finances as Phil, would do such a thing every month I can't fathom.

Phil dropping a bunch of money on useless shit at the mall, yeah that's plausible. Phil giving his money to the bank for easily avoidable fees, not so much.

As long as the fees are being paid every month, most banks (and especially Wells Fargo, if I remember DSP's bank correctly) will happily continue to "cover" the overdrafts in exchange for literally hundreds of dollars in their pocket every month.

Sidenote: someone who is definitely not heaving_earth again tipped $100 as Mark Zuckerberg with no message. I mean, sure, heaving_earth/phrenelith happened to be in chat, but it definitely wasn't them.

It really is just this. Same reason he want's no drama or troll talk, but as soon as he brings it up on his shitty minecraft streams, he starts getting money somehow and someway. Especially the cucks like jeff who wan't to "show da trolls" up by giving him money to make them mad.

I know this is late, but two clips from last night's (09/15/19) Minecraft Beggin' & Scammin' No Chill Stream.

"You guys help me out so much, financially with stuff."
"I'll be honest! Like. It makes me depressed. It makes me feel like shit. That-- You know? My wife's birthday just passed and we basically couldn't afford to do anything."
"You guys are the reason I'm still here! You guys STEPPED UP this year and were really been helping me out with TIPS and stuff."

In this clip, the greasy e-beggar, Philip "Darksydephil" Burnell, lays down a #DSPGuiltTrip during the unrecorded post-prestream pre-gameplay part of the stream.
One of the reasons he gives for being late to the the stream, is because during his weekly call to his parents, DarksydeMom and Bad Back Burnell Sr., he was whining about his self-created financial issues.
DSP thanks the paypigs and tryhard trolls for their financial support . . . and then feigns financial distress. While watching this clip, keep in mind that his monthly Twitch payment was about to be direct deposited into his bank account, but he's still to shake more money out of his viewers.
The thing is, less than five minutes after his woe-is-me-give-me-your-money whining, an idiot anonymously tips $100 proving that the grift works.

Anonymous donated $100!
I prefer a penne point! Glad that you're embracing this meme even though it's stupid xD

In a typical display of DSP incompetence, DSP outs the anonymous donator as being StinkyPennePenis, which is probably another "hilarious" heaving_earth alias.
Of course, after receiving a $100 tip, he immediately issues a not so subtle challenge to the other paypigs and tryhard trolls to give a bigger tip.
The clip is probably longer than it should be, but I wanted to include the part where delays starting the game in order to look at his phone to make sure that the $100 tip went through.

In this clip, the Twitch-Approved Conman, Philip "Darksydephil" Burnell, uses some sleazy mental gymnastics to explain why making fun of his gout is worse than people making racist jokes.

"Racist jokes are silly, if you do them in a general fashion."
"People can get angry, and get insulted, or get touchy about it. And you have to be careful, because some people just don't have thick skin."
"For me, I could care less! You could say whatever you want about my culture. Everyone knows I'm a quarter Polish and a quarter Italian, and people joke about it all the time. I don't really give a shit, what people say about. Okay?"
"But, I'm just saying, you make a general joke about race, I think that's okay. I'm not going to take offense."
"I have to sometimes snort, or clear my throat, or do weird things that other people don't have to do. Because I have Post-Nasal Drip. Is it funny to make fun of that?? No! It's mean!"

I know it's a long clip, but it's worth watching because the stupidity on display is stunning.

The Grift Continues . . .
