Goddamn 8500. Feel like we have just been flying through pages recently. You should be proud. There isn't even that much tangential bullshit. It is very lean (unlike) you pointing out your day to day stupidity. People can call you boring, but really I don't know many cows who can just bring on such consistent idiocy day in, day out. So good job Phil.


I do keep thinking about doing some sort of fighting game video on Phil to really illustrate his idiocy. Anyone have anything they would like to know or for me to highlight.

People talk a lot about how Phil plays every fighting game like it's Super Turbo, I'd enjoy a breakdown of that for someone whose fighting game knowledge tops out at "casual SNES SF2 player".

Someone whose name escapes me actually did just that. Pointed out what Phil was doing in non-SF2 Turbo games that were basics from SF2 Turbo.

VR becoming mainstream is probably one of the worst things that could happen to him. Can you imagine if all the big AAA titles became VR/AR and it was not just a nice diversion but required that he had to get up and move more than just his thumbs and mouth every day for his job? He'd probably collapse and die from exhaustion on the first day. No wonder he hates it and is terrified of it so much.

You can say the same thing about rollback netcode. Arc Systems Works is actively thinking about adding it to their older games (the cut off point being unknown, but I can see them doing it for all previously released PS4 and PC fighting games and possibly PS3 games, though I doubt it would happen) and other titles in development have been touting rollback netcode. Phil hates it because he does not understand it at all and has been actively ducking titles with it.

Pre-streams would become 3 hours long with gameplay being 30 minutes with 2 10-minute breaks. Oh, and the tips goal by then would be $500.

Yeah, see thats a good question. Because I do feel like we have a lot of people with about that level of experience and fighting games I feel is a big part of Phil.

However, I won't keep you waiting for several reasons, so short answer. Its in his combos. Even when he plays combo heavy games, he looks for just quick little damage. I have mentioned it before, that he likes to play characters with high damage in the fewest amount of buttons. Super Turbo really rewards this style of play as you really don't have much health and attacks do quite a bit of damage. This is in contrast to say a Marvel game where long combos are the norm. Usually offset by the fact that you do less damage per hit.

The trick being, Super Turbo and by proxy, Phil, is a game of looking for damage wherever you can find it. This manifests in his "Bullshit, that was my throw" or "That at least trades" things like that. This is because Super Turbo doesn't have really any sort of...retaliation. You can't get punished for doing damage. In contrast to games that have a mechanic that let you break out of combos for example. Like Killer Instinct. Or even lesser examples, like Third Strikes Parry system.

And ultimately, this all stands in contrast to what he calls the worst gameplay, the combo based fighters. Which, are all about getting ready for a kill. They can be one touch death, but not always. Phil just hates them because he will always go for an easy bit damage to give his opponent an easy win.

A couple things:
1. There are specific exercises you can do to make your forearms bigger; if he was bothered enough by their size to describe them as looking "like twigs" he could have worked on it
2. Remember when his WWE Champions account was first discovered and someone in his chat asked him if it was true he blew $40,000 on mobile games, his tactic was to laugh and say, "No, I spent $400,000!" Interesting that when he's confronted with his poor health he decides to take the same approach.

He could have just ignored all of this and pretended he had no idea what we've been talking about here. He is really, really pissed.

My guess is Kathy made some offhand comment to him and it shattered through his narc delusions. Like he was shaking struggling trying to pour from a full gallon jug and Kathy saw him and thought he was just goofing around so she said something mocking thinking she was "playing along" with "the joke".

Now Phil has to go through his cycle of injured narc rage and denial to mourn his shattered narc delusion until he gets back to his normal of pretending he can do 'The Pec Dance' anytime he wants to because he still 'has kept all the muscle' he got from occasionally doing a couple exercises during a 6 month period almost 20 years ago.

I've started on a 3-part video series to try and completely break down Dave's income and expenses based on what he's said and what we know from his bankruptcy filing. I'm planning to culminate it with an analysis of a day by day balance sheet that I'm drawing up.

It should be the closest that I can theoretically get to financial transparency with the information currently available.

Tips have stalled yet again on the Danganronpa stream. He's been falling asleep listening to the anime bitches yammer. In the short time I've tuned in, Piggy had to shake himself awake like three times.
EDIT: Well, following a MASSIVE GENEROUS (Phil's exact words) $100 tip, our favorite streamer is suddenly lively and full of energy! Thank goodness!

Every single tip tonight has included a completely incoherent and autistic message. You have to be so scummy to keep taking these tards bucks.

OiC with a tip from Hawaii. Aloha OiC. You coulda bought yourself a nice hotel for a day's worth of the money you have given DSP instead of staying in a friend's shitty military housing.
