when Phil talks about how his mother combed his hair through high school, given what else you know about the man, does that sound like a lie to you?

Yes I think it’s a bold faced lie. I think it’s a lie because he told said lie after being mocked for his balding head. Phil’s first instinct in every situation is a combination of lying and deflecting blame. Phil is also incredibly stupid and impulsive, so instead of spending 30 seconds to come up with a better lie to pin on his mom he says the first thought that pops into his head no matter how ridiculous it sounds.

he does this a lot, he makes up little white lies without realizing just how bat shit looney they sound. This is the same dude that admitted on camera his mom smoked while pregnant with him. Phil has either led the most exceptional(and not the good kind) life imaginable, or he lies to deflect criticism and is too far detached from reality to know when his little fibs are just off the wall bonkers

I have absolutely no reason to believe his mom combed his hair in high school, especially when he also claims that’s why his hairline is so trash

I've seen streamers getting $3k PCs shipped to them with their name slapped onto it just for streaming and being partnered/sponsored in some way and they don't even have to fuckin' try to be modest for what they are receiving because in the end, it helps them out a lot for streaming. They don't think "hey free shit to chuck in the corner."(His streamdeck).

Phil is that. He just wants free shit and the smugness that comes with getting free shit because it makes him feel important. A PS5 or new Sexbone isn't going to make his stream any better like a new mic, a new keyboard, a new pc, a greenscreen etc. Shit that almost feels like it's the damn basic foundation for anyone streaming he refuses to even step his little toes in.

What I'm getting at is SBM is going to make more use out of a new system than Phil will ever because he's going through the specs and whatnot itself. The thing Phil absolutely shat on before with how people were dissecting it apart and obsessing (caring) about. We all knew he was a shithead but it being plastered on twitter is hilarious. Look how fast he went from both congratulating a blind person for getting the console early, while shitting on people for getting it early, then 15 minutes later posting some petty jealous bullshit box of rocks.

Phil is an unreliable narrator,he is a compulsive liar so you never know if he is telling the truth,he lies about the most minuscule things. Phil is whatever he needs it to be at the moment and holds no relation to his past as I said in the Phil psychology thread months ago,he will say he is whatever is convenient at the moment,we will never be sure of anything with Phil,he has repeated his lies so much that I don't think he even know who he is and he cant connect to anyone since all of his relationships would be based on falsehoods and not on who he really is. The man has no identity (or maybe he is so ashamed of who he is that he has to escape into fantasy and this fantasies are vocalized to his audience).

Do you think Phil enjoys and thinks so highly of his reactionary commentary because it's one of the few times in his life where he doesn't have to rack his gin-addled brain with forming a narrative? He likes to shout "Look! Look!" because no one can argue with something if it's right there on the screen, right? Maybe just sitting there saying something honest (in the context that he goat-laughs at something that's supposed to be funny) is such a big deal to him that he genuinely thinks of it as art. It certainly is novel when Phil isn't just sitting there lying to you. But even then we get shit like "I didn't do that!"

Are we sure that's the case? Phil replied to SuperBlindMan's tweet with this:
View attachment 1681898
I definitely think tweeting that at Sony and PlayStation was a last ditch effort in getting one for free. No doubt in my mind that he's jealous that someone with ties to Sony got one instead of him, but when Phil publicly shits on gaming figures and companies all the time on Twitter and Twitch, he should fully expect to get nothing in return.

That's uncharacteristically gracious of Phil. I guess even he knows not to punch down on the disabled. Huh.

Edit: at least the visible ones.

Lol you gotta be kidding me. You're here and you think Phil is actually showing genuine graciousness? He was seething as he typed out every letter of his response to SBM. The rant in the other tweet is proof enough. Did you expect him to openly slam SBM? Did you expect to see him respond to fairly connected and known disabled person with 'YOU SHITBAG THATS MAH PS5'?

Phil has a certain porcine cunning when it comes to a survival instinct. He's not THAT dumb. He takes the passive aggressive route as much if not more than open hostility when he calculates it to be necessary.

And here I thought people in this place knew Phil.

I love how he's like "did it show up randomly", trying to assess whether or not he was a shill lmao

Easy there champ, I simply didn't know the order in which the tweets went out. I went and corrected myself after I found out.

He is THAT dumb. He's said nigger, roleplayed as a Nazi, jerked it live, perjured himself, said he would have assaulted an 11 year old, told a grieving brother to shut the fuck up and pay attention to his hurt feewers

Shall I go on?

His teeth must have been gritted so hard writing that I'm surprised he didn't shatter them

Maybe he did. Maybe that's what's in the box.

 

[Surly Muppet]

My favorite part of today's rant starts here (at 36:30), and it goes batshit crazy over the following 4 minutes.

Phil gives his standard rant about why all of this is such a terrible practice, how sponsorships and free merch are detrimental to the industry as a whole.
Then the problems start...

Phil says that years ago, he did and said some things that were not appealing to a mass audience. He did these things for shock value to maintain an audience on YT.
So... did the audiences like it or not...? Were you real or fake for all those years? Was it acceptable or not?

Phil then says he was always be "indie... independent". He will never have financial backing from one of these companies, he will never have sponsorship from these companies, you will never see him get a console early, you will never see him 'get a freebie'... it's very rare, if and when a company chooses to do anything with regards to a sponsorship or a partnership with Phil.
So... what about Hori? Spawn Seats? Mario and Sonic at the Olympics? "It's very rare?" So these things do happen? These things that you said will never happen and that you're completely against? And you accept them?

Phil says this happens with good reason. A lot "has to do with him". Some of it doesn't. Some of it has to do with his trolls. "Who try to go and ruin all of these opportunities for me." But when you're an outspoken critic of these mainstream industry practices, the companies don't want to work with you.
So... Phil's narrative here has become so fucked up that midway through this rant, he realized he needed to remind everyone that he was also a victim, in addition to the independent moral crusader. Normally, he keeps those two rants on the same topic separate, this time he spun 180, mid rant, then spun another 180 to finish.

Either Phil wanted sponsorship opportunities, and the trolls robbed him of this opportunity and he is a victim.
OR, Phil has always been against these practices, so the trolls have accomplished nothing, or have actually helped him stay on his moral path by keeping sponsors away.
It literally cannot be both. But Phil wants to be both a victim, and indomitable, and he wants those both on the same day, in the same 5 minutes.

I also just want to say that I hadn't seen the tweet with the rocks before the prestream, so when he started teasing the box he received, I absolutely believed that he had duped Sony into sending him a console, had worked this behind the scenes... while explicitly begging for money for the console he knew he was going to get for free. That absolutely seemed like something he would do. Note that he later expressly says how to go about requesting a free console from Sony. He can't find Paypal's customer service line, but he knows that procedure? He absolutely tried.

Then I saw the tweet and realized that it was a bitter joke that paved the way to clout chasing his fan before shitting on him. Which is an even more Phil thing to do. This whole thing just emphasized what a sack of shit he is from any angle.

This is the man who at 35 years old boasted that he finally learned how to do laundry all by himself.

This is the man who got a pet rabbit and named it "Bunny". I guess that is a good name for a three year old to name a rabbit, but check the dates on the gravestone. He got Bunny sometime after the Wolverine doll incident. He was almost in Junior High School.

This is the man who went to college for computer science and didn't know how to use a computer. He is so inept at computers that he used the same username and password for literally everything.

This is the man who on 9/11/2001 was a freshman in college. He claims to have partied every day. Yet during the terror attacks, he was at the mall with his mommy.

This man's wife bought him a velcro Nintendo wallet.

You think his mom combing his hair until high school is a lie?

You have more confidence in Phil than I do.

 

[Kosher Dill]

What the fuck is a good dude like that supporting Phil for?

Because Phil reads things out loud and just says what's happening on screen. Zero-effort commentary probably actually helps him enjoy games he can't play himself.

Remember Elo Hell? Remember when he said he would do 1 twitch bounty stream PER WEEK?

Cause im sure fuckin do.

 

[100% VIRGIN M00TY]

Phil is probably going to refrain from addressing his toxic jealously of SBM on stream as there is a good chance SBM will never know what Phil did that way. I don't know what software he uses to read out text but I doubt he goes through all of Philburgs tweets and he probably doesn't have it reading the Twitch chat out aloud. SMB is the easiest mark of them all.

 

[Pargon]

Because Phil reads things out loud and just says what's happening on screen. Zero-effort commentary probably actually helps him enjoy games he can't play himself.

Despite nothing being actually wrong with him on a physical level (yes I'm excluding the lol autism) Phil finds the most common ground with slow-in-the-minds and people with actual disorders and/or disabilities. Nearly all of his existing dyed-in-the-wool fans are confirmed cripples, degenerates, SSI-havers and social paralytics. We don't call them wheelchairs just because it's hilarious.

Whether that's because he naturally caters to the lowest common denominator, because he aims low intentionally because fuck how low-hanging or rotten the fruit is as long as he gets it, or because Phil is diagnosable on any number of levels and he just hasn't been seen to have it done because the doctor might hypothetically be a Kiwi, we might never know.

It has to be both his commentary and his ridiculous obsession with his scheduling. The former of which is, and I mean this without a hint of irony, on par with an episode of Blue's Clues (that is to say, when he isn't complaining or begging).
He's just a really repetitive person as well, always making the same excuses, always saying the same shit over and over. Sure he plays a variety of games but it's always the same games at the same time. Pre-stream is the exact same speech time and time again, even though its duration has stretched well over 2 hours by now. Phil prides himself on "consistency", and he's right...only perhaps not in the way he thinks he is. You tune into a DSP stream and you know exactly what you're getting, because it's always the same fucking thing. The only variety is how much he trips over himself trying to come up with his latest lie.

See after today I learned that SBM is more known than I thought. I just wrote him off as another Phil fan but he has some clout.

Despite his fans being absolute goons, there is SBM who has some foot in the door. It's a possibility Phil is sniffing his asshole the same way he praises known FGC members online when he fights them.

So Phil is an absolute ass kisser here which is why he's showing some sort of respect towards Blindman. Same way with Sir Dorito Pope. He's a lil clout chasing faggot hoping to get networking scraps.

If blindman was just any other dude, Phil would treat him just like every other fan of his. Phil sees blindman as useful and its kinda sad because the man is disabled.

Agreed all around. I think someone like SBM is the Spiders Georg of this scenario: a genuine statistical outlier in that he is personable, intelligent and by all accounts I've seen good at what he does (and a genuine benefit to others through his work, even if he is still getting paid for it). Others (Papavera, PlanetJeff) are successful on one or two axes but still manage to be walking disasters in almost every other respect.

Everyone else just seems to be a Swaggins waiting to be discovered.
