You're doing great.

Although I don't think he ever trademarked Burnell Productions (that's just the business name listed in the WA state dept. revenue site), but he did the trademark for darksydephil and dspgaming.

In the WWEChampions section, the (initial) suspect's name was TheyCallMeDSP, not DSPGaming. Also, he had a total of 3 names, "TheGunShow84" being the 2nd one, before transitioning to DownFromTheRafters.

You can also add "valedictorian".

I haven't read everything, just a couple of observations on my part.

Done all of these.

Rainy day fund: a classic Phil-ism that he believes is when someone squirrels away money for a day of bad weather when the reality is a set aside amount of money for a hardship.

Not sure if that would be a new entry or perhaps a progenitor of TIHYDP but when Phil was just uploading SF IV or older Sf footage some guy developed a "DSP is a scrub" series (this series had the same template as TIHYDP, (clips of Phil failing combined with comments and other edits)


It mostly focus on DSP's Street Fighter antics but if you compare it with his current excuses / rants nothing has changed
 
Other important lore

Best Buy: Phil's first known job after university, a sales job working with business customers. He was fired for using employee discount on PS2s he was using in a tourney, the discount was only to be used on items for personal use (read: they wanted him gone and finally found a way to make it for-cause). Phil openly admits he did poorly at this job and blames it on Best Buy not supporting the program enough.

The Khando: Also known as the "Wakando".
How detractors call the original home of Phil, where he lived before he moved in Seattle, Washington.
It's a condo in Connecticut.
WAKhando is the one in Washington, the one in Connecticut is the Bachelor Pad or Connectikhando.
 
WhoaMoses: Before he used DarksydePhil/DSP, WhoaMoses was the online handle he'd go by.

Monkeyspank: One of the nicknames other FGC members had for him, comes from the fact that he got caught jacking it in hotel rooms back in the FGC days.

DownSyndromePhil/DickSuckingPussy: Some other nicknames that FGC members had for him back in the day.
 
I dunno how we missed this but his obession with scat, scat humour and anal jokes. Which ties into him being a closeted gay man. there's a lot of videos of him making scat jokes and using scat references in a rant like the 'ill mail you spoon so you can eat the shit from my ass' rant.

I could use some help writing articles about Phil's mom and the 10 year plan stuff. Not that well versed in that lore.
 
I could use some help writing articles about Phil's mom and the 10 year plan stuff. Not that well versed in that lore.
Phil's Mom: Linda Burnell has been Phil's #1 enabler his entire life. From what we can gather she smoked and drank while pregnant with Phil, became a stay-at-home mom when he was born, spoiled him rotten and ensured he never learned basic life skills - she did his hair until he was in high school, and even did his laundry when he came home from college on the weekends. This enabling has continued well into Phil's adult life, including giving him money for back taxes and Christmas presents for Leanna. This is likely to continue for the rest of her life since she has gone back on her word about 'no more bailouts' at least once. When she is not busy enabling her idiot son, Linda spends much of her time shopping on QVC. This is an improvement compared to when Phil was in high school and (according to him) she and his father cheated on each other.

Linda is also the source of Phil's Authentic Italian delusions: Her father Archimede Salvagno was almost certainly of Italian descent based on the name, but he was born in the United States and married an American woman. This would make Linda 1/2 Italian at best; by extension this makes Phil, at most, 1/4 Italian. So far as we know, neither of them has been to Italy or even Little Italy in New York City. Despite this, she made such a big deal of cooking Italian-American fare when Phil was a child that he is convinced he is a True and Honest Italian. He even uses this to explain his behavior + present himself as a sage on Italian food. Before anyone asks if any of this might be Archimede's doing, that is impossible because he died when Phil was an infant.

Authentic Italian Sauce/'Tism Sauce: Phil's cooking abilities are very poor, roughly on par with a teenager/early 20-something learning to cook for the first time. The one exception is his pride and joy, Authentic Italian Sauce (his term). To hear him tell it, it is cooked according to a priceless family recipe. He is so proud and protective of it that Kat was never allowed to help make it, and Leanna was only allowed to stir it after years of being with Phil. Of course, as with all things Phil, the reality is underwhelming - he cooks it for far too long, adds too much water, and counterbalances the excess water with ~a cup of sugar resulting in something thin, gritty, and overly sweet. This earned it the troll nickname of 'Tism Sauce.

The Authentic Italian Sauce died a quiet, undignified death a few years ago when the grocery store Phil went to stopped carrying San Marzano tomatoes. The idea of getting them from Walmart, or getting tomatoes without an Italian-sounding name, did not occur to him.

Ten Year Plan: When DSP went to Connecticut in 2019 to get married to Kat, his mother gave him cash for his back taxes and encouraged him to file bankruptcy. As a condition of the bailout, she also made him commit to a ten-year plan to get a real job. So far as Phil has mentioned they never discussed, much less agreed on, the details of the plan besides 'get a real job ten years from now' (i.e. no more Youtube or begging by 2029). Since then the plan has devolved from 'real job within ten years' to 'start looking for a real job within ten years' to 'start thinking about it within ten years' to 'don't even think about it for ten years' to 'the ten-year plan is scrapped because Covid happened'. It is unclear why Covid convinced Phil doing Youtube for the rest of his life was a good idea, or if Linda knows the ten-year plan is scrapped.

ETA: You didn't ask for it but I did a writeup for Phil's father too

Phil's Dad: David Burnell has few to none of Phil's negative characteristics. He was a warehouse worker at the helicopter factory when Phil was born, and through a combination of diligence + night school eventually got into white-collar management. Despite this heavy workload he did what he could to be involved in Phil's life. Some of it (calling home every night at Phil's bedtime) was sweet, other parts (keeping elaborate He-Man sets in the attic and only letting Phil play with them at designated times) were weird.

He left the helicopter company before Phil was fired from there, and he is currently the director (C-suite or one step down) of quality at a company called Unger Enterprises. He has also served on advisory boards for the City of Bridgeport and ran a brief, unsuccessful campaign for the city Board of Education.

In addition to being successful, David is much more direct than Linda about Phil being a screwup: When Linda gave Phil a tax bailout and encouraged him to file bankruptcy in 2019, he stormed out of the room in disgust.

ETA x2: And a very popular minor character.

Jenna Snow: Kat's half-sister and by extension Phil's half sister in law. She and Kat have not spoken in over a decade, but being a human dumpster fire has given her a well deserved place in the Snortex regardless - at various times she has been a hooker, lived in a van, gotten arrested, gone to rehab, done OnlyFans, taken heavy drugs and gone on unhinged rants. Her most (in)famous moment in Snortex lore came in late 2021 when a Kiwi hooked up with her and posted an after action report.

I think "Poorly cooking with the king" deserves an entry. He started the series in 2009 (I think) when he downloaded a Mass Effect DLC and he claimed that a lot of people asked him for it. The now infamous first episode saw him cook two Bacon-Egg and cheese sandwiches which produced several highlights at once
1. Spraying the frying pan with oil stating "I don't have time to melt butter, I am a gamer"
2. Dropping a slice of toast on the floor, picking it up and putting it back on the plate
3. Dumping the bacon grease into the toilet

He ended the series because he cooked every meal he knew and he "didn't want to be a phony to cook recipes he finds in a cookbook" (no really that was his reasoning)

Another highlight of the series was the infamous "Burnell tomato sauce" where he dumped a huge helping of sugar into it because it "adds sweetness". Also worth of note: the vast majority of these cooking videos were early in the morning so it is safe to assume he was drunk when he made his "gamer meals"
 
1. Spraying the frying pan with oil stating "I don't have time to melt butter, I am a gamer"
2. Dropping a slice of toast on the floor, picking it up and putting it back on the plate
3. Dumping the bacon grease into the toilet
4. Using pre-sliced butter because he didn't have time to slice it, he's a gamer
5. Throwing out ~half a pound of ground beef because he either didn't know how, or couldn't be bothered, to store the opened package properly.

Also also worth of note: He later admitted he was going to make + eat that stuff regardless and only recorded + uploaded it so he could recoup the costs of the food.

ETA:
Even after moving to Seattle, Phil kept ownership of this condo for years, but he never visited nor did any repairs on it, leading to it depreciating in value.
The truth is different and funnier - a few months after Phil moved in, the Connectikhando depreciated by about $65,000 due to people in another unit burning a hole in the roof. The value was + or - constant until after he filed for bankruptcy, at which point the Covid-induced real estate boom resulted in $40,000 of appreciation and brought the property back above water. He could have sold it outright and avoided a bankruptcy on his record if he'd just waited a year or two.

How can we forget Brandon Cole aka SuperBlindMan? he has a thread but a quick breakdown is thus: Brandon was oddly enough someone who had a healthy reciprocating relationship with Phil via Twitter, he was active in the games industry as an innovator and advisor for accessibility for the visually impaired and even won an award for his involvement with I believe it was The Last of Us which is where their friendship fell apart when Phil being the tonedeaf half-informed faggot he is started shitting on Neil Drukmann to which Brandon wrote out a lengthy rebuttal seeing as he actually met with and worked alongside Neil himself and Phil's only response was a weak potshot about how Brandon "couldn't see" the situation like he did. Anyways Brandon would continue to be a pioneer in accessibility in gaming and was gifted by Sony the not yet released Playstation 5 to which Phil would later do his famous box of rocks tweet showing he could be as petty as the best of them.

"Do you get it?": Whenever Phil is being a condescending self-righteous blowhard, especially when he's explaining stuff to his dents like they are five year olds.

Poorly Cooking with the King:
He started the series roughly in 2009 when he downloaded a Mass Effect DLC and he claimed that a lot of people asked him for it. The now infamous first episode saw him cook two Bacon-Egg and cheese sandwiches which produced several highlights at once:
1. Spraying the frying pan with oil stating "I don't have time to melt butter, I am a gamer"

Also worth of note: He later admitted he was going to make + eat that stuff regardless and only recorded + uploaded it so he could recoup the costs of the food.

SuperBlindMan:
SuperBlindMan (real name Brandon) was a Phil viewer who, as the name says, is blind. He became a frequent watcher of Phil's streams, probably because of Phil's commentary.
Phil, despite having done this for 15 years, is insanely bad at commentary. Instead of saying anything interesting, most of the time Phil is just describing what is happening on screen, reading every piece of text, or explaining things to his viewers and treating them like they are retarded.
This was perfect for someone like Blindman, it's literally content catered to someone that would be visually impaired. Phil's content is literally Let's Plays with accessibility features.
Brandon was oddly enough someone who had a healthy reciprocating relationship with Phil via Twitter, he was active in the games industry as an innovator and advisor for accessibility for the visually impaired and even won an award for his involvement with The Last of Us which is where their friendship fell apart when Phil being the tonedeaf half-informed faggot he is, started shitting on Neil Druckmann to which Brandon wrote out a lengthy rebuttal seeing as he actually met with and worked alongside Neil himself and Phil's only response was a weak potshot about how Brandon "couldn't see" the situation like he did. Anyways Brandon would continue to be a pioneer in accessibility in gaming and would be gifted by Sony the not yet released at the time Playstation 5 to which Phil would later do his famous box of rocks tweet showing he could be as petty as the best of them.

Black Begging Shirt: The coincidence or pattern of Phil wearing a black shirt when he prepares to due a segment where he either lambasts the dents for not tipping enough or when some sort of crisis comes up that can be resolved with a couple hundred dollars.

-style: Often used by Phil as a modifier when explaining or describing things. Repeated by detractors due to his over-reliance on randomly attaching it to words to pad his sentences to the point where it's almost a verbal tic. Actual DSP-style usage includes: "card-style games", "Youtube-style videos", and "Ape-style creature"

Fear of Women/Appreciation of Men: Back when DSP started on YouTube, he would act like an horny dog everytime a woman appeared on screen. Making titty and sex jokes constantly, he did not even care to stop after getting together with Panda.
However, after Phil got together with Kat, things changed. Nowadays, Phil is terrified and tries to avoid looking at any woman or sign of female sexuality while playing a game. And when he's forced to do a part with scantily clad women, he will start to complain and lambast the game, saying that having sexuality in your game is a waste of time and that he's a married adult.
What caused this change? Detractors theorize that Phil is such a doormat, that he's terrified of Kat finding out about him making sex jokes on other women, even pixelated women. After all, Subaruman did say that Kat is extremely jealous and possessive.
Instead, now he makes jokes everytime a naked muscular men appears on screen.
An example being how his attempt to stay as far away from any women in Baldur's Gate 3 as much as possible resulted in the game correctly thinking he was a fag and the epilogue had him dating the muscular shirtless druid, of which Dave was cackling up a storm thinking this was the funniest thing in the world when you know for an absolute fact he would have been complaining if the opposite happened and the game saddled him with Shadowheart or Lae'zel.

Paper Plates and Plastic Cutlery: Post-Pandalee Phil always, always uses paper plates and plastic cutlery. Even on Thanksgiving and Christmas. You can find this all over his Instagram, where he constantly posted his meals to flex on trolls until the early 2020s.

Styrofoam: Phil and Kat order Doordash daily or near-daily, often multiple times a day. This generates so much Styrofoam that it takes up a huge chunk of space in the garage, and it is too much for the recycling pickup to take. Phil has had to make runs to the dump just to get rid of the fucking Styrofoam from his constant delivery orders.

QVC: QVC is a television shopping network that has largely become irrelevant with the advent of online shopping. Phil's mother Linda is an out and proud QVC addict, and spends much of her time watching it. Through at least 2020, her QVC purchases included buying Phil's Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. Kiwis made a game of finding the exact things she bought her son and calculating just how much she wasted on him.

Page 2 started. I was about to run out of space, and this way i can also start adding more youtube videos/media.

I added every one of @UncleTusky entries to page 2, except for Jenna, I added that one on Page 1 below the Khet section. Great job, you did some amazing writeups.

I also added a "Khet breaking Stuff" entry on page 1. Can't believe i forgot how much Phil blames her for breaking shit in the household lol

Not sure if @Pepper Jack can make it so Page 2 is just below Page 1, but regardless I linked the two pages together with a link.
I blame my lack of foresight, I really underestimated how vast Phil's lore is, crazy how fast i ran out of space lol.

As for the others, i'm working on articles on everything you guys are suggesting.

If i may ask, how do you know about stuff like his father storming out of the room when the 10 year plan shit happened, @UncleTusky ?
Did Phil mention this stuff himself? If so, why would you do that, gouty fat fuck?

Yes he did and it was entirely unprompted, if I remember right it was shortly after he got back from the wedding.

This is still less embarrassing than how he spent his wedding night arguing with trolls and passed up an all expenses paid, no strings attached honeymoon his parents offered.
