Words & Phrases DSP Has Invented or Misuses - DSP'isms that make you say "HUUUHN?!?"

Am I the only one left posting in this thread?

In any case, today he repeated the "I know Latin so I know all other languages" meme by claiming that since he knows Latin he understands Spanish but he can't speak it. Since Spanish is rooted in Latin he can understand Spanish because he knows the Latin "root words."

This thread is sadly only active when Phil says something really stupid, an example of thus is as thusly promotionally stated by thyself on the complicated subject of the lingustical grouping known as Romantic Languages. I know Latin by heart because I am Italian dude, fuck you.

@UncleTusky To contribute to your linguistic spergin', one course I took during uni was Proto-Indo-European Linguistics and Myth. It wasn't related to my major (though if you wanna go full SemanticsSydePhil since I majored in two foreign languages, both of which Indo-European, I guess it was related in some way) but I took it because it interested me. One thing that amazed me is how many words that sound quite different are actually derived from the same root and as a layman you just don't catch it. For example Spanish hijo is derived from Latin filius, which at first glance sounds quite different compared to for example the English word king, the German könig and the proto-Germanic kuningaz which all sound similar. However, when you learn the rules of how one language derived words from another, it starts making sense.

Also, another problem is that a word derived from another word may not even have the same meaning, sometimes it can be related but sometimes it can be quite different. If you want an autistic example, since Phail is the Lover of Horses let's just use the English word horse. It actually has the same PIE root as the English word car which is krsos. Krsos is a generic word for a vehicle but many PIE-derived languages use it as a word for chariot or wagon - Latin currus, in Celtic languages you often find it as carr or karr. However, proto-Germanic languages used it as a word for horse. The PIE root for horse is actually hekwos, some examples of words derived from it are the Latin equus, Greek hippos and Sanskrit asva, all of which sound completely unrelated on the surface.

Decided to look at some PPG trends and holy fuck. I knew he was saying "I would argue" a lot around this time, but this has to be one of the most insane spikes in his lexicon I've ever seen. He went from almost never saying it, to saying it 26 times in July 2021, then to saying it 73 times in August, then to this, then to saying it 101 times in October, and now we're back to almost never saying it again. That's 378 out of 498 times in just FOUR months. What the fuck happened that made him say this one very specific phrase so much?

He hears a phrase/word in another YouTube video and it becomes his sperg obsession. Except for some reason UNIQUE hasn't stopped.

Raise your hand

He's used this on and off for a while as a shitty attempt at humor. It's somehow less funny every time he does it.

I remember seeing a video compilation of this. I don't know what has made him start doing it again this year. He had stopped doing it for several years. It's peak wheelchair humor, but then again, that is his audience these days.

There's some other weird ass phrase he occasionally uses as humor I forgot because the Farms was down for me and I didn't bother writing it down anywhere. He said it like 20 times in one month.

I wonder if it's his attempt to escape from his usual scat humour, since it's been brought up constantly here. Phil has to spend mental energy to avoid making his "dark jokes" and as a result, ends up relying on very immature, childish "humour" that no-one other than the dents have a chance of finding funny, and I wouldn't be surprised if most of them don't.

So I remember what I had forgotten. DSP has this very peculiar manner of claiming trolls make money off him.

"Massive bank"

It triggers my grammar tism because putting 'massive' in that is a redundancy. Just say the trolls are making bank from lying about me daily.
