I wish we would have created a thread which followed the Exercise Bike saga and documented everything Phil said and did. Now it's really hard to link the facts together.
But who would have guessed simple shit like this would conclude in this vortex of autism? Then we could also create a thread each time Phil scratches his ass.
I guess Phil did nothing wrong and everything correct.
- Khet gets money for birthday from Phil's parents. Her birthday seems to be on September 6, thanks Phil.
- Khet orders exercise bike from Amazon. It's an "not too expensive" one.
Either Phil assembled it or it came assembled (conflicting sources). But I remember reading "The instructions were all in Asian, ack ack ack"? So it had to be Phil unless I dreamed up this part.
Confirmed by Phil (I watch GTG right now): Phil assembled the bike, by his words. It was frustrating to build it, as the manual was written in "some asian, like taiwanese".- Bike breaks after 1 or 2 uses (conflicting sources).
- Instead of disassembling the bike to easily ship it back to Amazon, Phil "Hard Worker" Burnell refuses to do that. Either he is too lazy, has thrown away every tool (fool if he did that) or hasn't assembled it in the first place. How long would it take to disassemble an already broken exercise bike? 10 minutes max?
Now here is where the real autism starts.
- Phil commissions PilotFreight to pick up the still fully assembled bike to send it back to Amazon. For several reasons this never worked for approximately three days in a row (missing sources). Phil of course adds PilotFreight to the @ in his Tweets.
The truck's tire got flat.
The driver got sick (so do they have just one driver? Sounds odd.)
- Phil apparently cancels whole streams for two phone calls and because he has to wait for the transport company to ring his door bell.
- Imprisons his cat Jasper in a room for several hours so it won't flee when he opens the front door. Wauw.
- Turns out Phil cancels stream because he won't hear the doorbell during streams...
VALEDICTORIAN can't adapt to that unchanging fact! Except it's entirely controlable. It's a simple problem, there are solutions!
- Keep the door to the office open, don't wear headphones or reduce the volume (or both).
- Tell them to give you a phone call when they arrive. But Phil HATES to get calls during stream, which was already the main reason why he couldn't sell his old condo.
- Five hours ago, the bike is finally out of the house.
Except nearly everything.
Technically phil didn’t commission that company. It was all through amazon and that company specifically because dark refused to take it apart
Also might as well add in the facts that
1. Dark apparently called amazon for kats order and asked for the refund(why can’t can’t call amazon herself and handle her own shit who knows)
2. When amazon responded with the fact that they would need to get the bike back before giving the refund he said “that’s a hassle”
3. After that company bailed on him the first time he called crying to amazon and wrangled some amazon credit out of them
