I love how Phil's life is so boring and uneventful that he has to bring up every little thing that happens to him to his chat, because they aren't allowed to talk about themselves
Only in DSP's world do people care that his fucking fingers are numb
Remember this next time you guys think of something wild like "Phil has a kid, Phil had a stroke"
Phil is so desperate for news on his Twilight Zone life that if there was anything causing him duress, ANYTHING, he'd have already told us about it by now.
It is absolutely crazy the amount of stuff he complains about or what bothers him. his life is so mundane, uneventful the best he can say is he went to the mall or eat at a restaurant but he tries not to mention the food or delivery because he is "struggling". At least old people will give a nice or even a more coherent story than Dave. He knows his entertaining is crap and stalls because of that and his "love" of vidya games.

Probably not a stroke (I consider him to have speech impairment at baseline lol).

FYI for you guys who aren't familiar with how a stroke usually presents it's good to know in general:

According to this, Phil would have a 24/7 stroke.
Okay, to qualify I mean that his retarded pinky situation type deal is likely not an indicator of an acute stroke, I won't rule out that he has a prior history of stroke lol. An MRI of his brain would almost certainly show some kind of accelerated atrophy in any case though.

DSP's theory as to why the amount of Youtube Memberships isn't increasing: it was a 'slow' E3, so people don't feel incentivized to drop money on a Membership for his channel because there's not that much happening in the gaming scene.

Nothing he could do. Not his fault. He did everything correct.
There's zero incentive on getting a DSP membership. He only wants members because he wants money and giving your money to other YouTubers with memberships enabled will actually get you stuff.

Football(U.S.) players with brain damage from years of hits are more capable than him. The MRI would be great and wonder what effect copious amounts of alcohol of the last 15+ years has done to him.

Mod Edit: please don't post massive fuckoff walls like this about shit that has nothing to do with the topic. I'm only putting this in a spoiler instead of deleting it because I feel bad deleting something that obviously took like 3 hours to type up.

I know they don't teach history in the US so a quick lesson. Saturday cram school. Check out the DSP geography video if you need help finding the countries. There was this thing called WW2. Came after WW1. For the first 2 years of WW2 America did nothing. The military, the people, all cowards. The US merchant navy sent endless supplies across the Atlantic, nearly always unprotected and were massacred. The US did nothing to protect them. Noting the merchant navy also didn't do it to stop the Germans, they did it for the money. They aren't brave. Men are brave.

For over 8 months the Germans launched near continuous daily bombing raids on the UK, mostly targeting London. Called The Blitz. Took out around 43,000 civilians. Not including the deaths and damage to mainland Europe. America did nothing. They only joined up when they were attacked by Japan, which also brought the US economy out of its worst economic depression in history. Very well timed.

WW2 ended and the Germans lost. The Americans rushed in, deluding themselves to be the heroes. In the scramble to carve up Germany all the scientists, with their advanced rockets and Die Glocke, magically disappeared only to turn up in... guess the country? America didn't go to the moon. The Nazis did, funded by America. It only cost a couple of Jews. Bargain.

You don't believe me? walk into NASA sometime and yell "Heil Hitler!" WOOP! They all jump straight up!
I just have to comment on this because this gave me a fucking heart attack to read.

There's a reason why the U.S. didn't immediately join WWII. First off, FDR did want to join in the war, but without Congressional approval it simply wouldn't be possible. Congress has to approve all military action and unfortunately they disapproved of joining the war at the time. There was a solidified concept of Isolationism within the U.S. at the time. Not only could people at the time recite the Monroe Doctrine (which mostly died around WWI) but WWI was just so bad casualty wise that people simply thought that the benefits of joining another world war would not be enough to outweigh the imminent causalities, thus making war unjustifiable. That's why Isolationism was so prevalent in the U.S. and led to the U.S. not joining the League of Nations after WWI.

Yes, the U.S. did send supplies and the like to Europe and their allies, but America's stance on WWII still remained neutral for the reasons stated above. But once Japan attacked the U.S., FDR could use that to show that the Axis Powers did an act of war against the U.S. and thus Congress could finally approve military action and throw Isolationism out of the window as it simply didn't apply here. This meant that the U.S. needed bombs, planes, ammunition, ships, workers (which led to women in factories), soldiers, and all the things needed for war. This revamped the U.S. economy as it quite literally put "America back to work" with a booming industrial industry.

You have to remember that it wasn't solely America's involvement that won the war. It was a turning point, but not the sole reason. It was an effort between the Allies depending on the front. On the Atlantic were massive battles between the U.S. and Japan that involved island hopping. Simply, the U.S. literally recaptured 1 island at a time, hopping from island to island until they were able to reach the heart of Japan. On the western front were the British and the U.S. making a massive breakthrough with D-Day and freeing the grip Germany had on France. On the eastern front was arguably Hitler's greatest mistake- attacking Russia in the winter. You have to understand that the USSR is fucking huge, and being so fucking huge it has a lot of people. Stalin's logic against Hitler was "I have more men that you have bullets." It was a war of attrition in the winter, and the further Germany could advance into the USSR meant supply lines had to travel further and further which would make it more difficult to supply the front, but because Germany attacked in the winter relatively unprepared, they ran out of supplies rather quickly. The eastern front was fucking brutal with troops fighting room to room in the same building. Attrition led to the lowering of morale and supplies of the Germans. This led to a retreat.

So with Japan collapsing in the Atlantic, Germany losing to the USSR, Italy switching sides, the western front caving in due to the British and the U.S. (who had all fresh troops with high morale and motivation), Germany's fall was inevitable.

The thinking of "Americans were the heroes!" after the war can really be contributed to 2 things. Firstly, the victors of wars are the ones that write the history. It's just a fact of life and has been historically shown. Secondly, the fighting was in pretty much every other place except the U.S. Whereas most of Europe had their industries destroyed and bombed, the U.S. was left untouched, automatically providing a gateway that led to the U.S. becoming a world superpower.

Now I have to point out, WW2 ended in 1945. We got to the moon 1969. Germany wasn't a factor, the USSR was. Remember JFK's moon speech? That was 1962. The moon landing should be credited to mostly JFK for being a visionary and in his vision he wanted to test the limits of human knowledge and what was modern technology, so the refocusing of efforts to science and technology by JFK led to, once again, the moon landing. Credit should also go to Lyndon B. Johnson for not abandoning the project/vision, but remember it was the Cold War. Presumably Lyndon B. Johnson didn't abandon it because the Space Race.

I'll give DSP a smidgeon of credit. I think depending on where you live, your body does react differently to temperatures. 72*F, which is room temperature, does feel warm to me. You'll see a similar phenomon in the winter, where it if it was 50*F in Florida they would be wearing sweaters but a guy vacationing from Minnesota would have on a t-shirt and shorts.

The difference is that I don't bitch and moan and claim that my life is in danger all the time. I put on a fan and go about my day.
This is true, it's called acclimatization. It's when your body, physiologically and physically, becomes adjusted to the temperature of your environment. Acclimatization plays into your heat and cold tolerance. By slightly increasing the temperature around you, in about 2 weeks your body will adjust (remember slight, nothing too drastic.) Same goes for the cold. People who spend more time outside are less affected by heat or cold extremes because of acclimatization, whereas a person that stays indoors all day (cough DSP cough) can really be fucked when it jumps from 65F to 90F.

The fact that Dave doesn't respond with "Yeah, you too man" when someone superchats him saying "have a good one" is so funny to me, he's so far away from being a normal human that if he wasn't borderline retarded I would probably feel bad for him.
oh my god this is so subtle that I can't believe I never caught this sooner, you're right lol

his typical response is usually some bullshit like "yea thanks man I hope you're able to join me monday for x stream," like who the fuck advertises themselves to somebody leaving a stream
