It owns that not 36 hours after telling the whole world they’re idiots for suggesting he budget more carefully, Phil gets owned by himself for wasting money in a way he could have 100% prevented by actually budgeting.
EDIT: true lolcows reject advice so I have no problems posting this: 99% of modern consumer purchasing nowadays is giving you a month for free and hoping you forget. And if you have 20 services all charging you 5 dollars a month, then that shit adds up so fucking fast. And if you can't identify all those little lampreys, then you haven't actually done any budgeting. You're just kind of moving numbers around and hoping reality lines up eventually.
My favorite part is that it doesn't even matter if Phil realizes how much he fucks himself by not being smarter with his money, he would just keep being dumb with it, out of spite. Not just because he has the mind of a toddler, but because he knows that one of the most irritating things about him is the way that life doesn't punish him quite enough for being an idiot, and he really gets off on that shit, especially these days.
