Phil will monetize the shit out of Jasper's eventual demise. "Oh, I'm sooo sad, give me pity bucks." He might even cry after rubbing a water bottle all over his forehead.
@@ArchangelSteveImagine the number of pity streams he'll be sure to have. The week after. Each year on the anniversaries of when they got him, the $2000 reveal, and passing. As a cat owner myself it infuriates me. Phil has no shame. Doesn't even know the meaning of the world.
@@FantasticMrGhost Makes you wonder doesn't it? Almost as if one of the main purposes of Jasper was to provide Phil another tool to use for begging. All of that cat food and litter is expensive, d00ds.
@@GalathNox "Alright, guys. Time for my Jasper Retrospective event. No games will be played (maybe Stray) but I'll show some pictures and then do 6 hours of Jasper-related Q&A. Sound good?"
phil neglecting jasper is so sad. won’t keep the ant poison out of reach, won’t clean his litter box, won’t get him blood work. for someone he considers “family” he sure can’t be bothered to do the bare minimum
He's really obsessed with his consumer servants being in uniform because he is so simple minded he requires visual reassurance the person "officially knows what they are doing". Phil is the kind of person who would complain about it to the manager. People like him are why service people have to wear uniforms, be overly nice, etc.
This is why doctors wear o.r scrubs on TV shows like the doctors. If they weren't wearing scrubs how would we know they are doctors. Simple People need visual cues.
We're literally reliving the "just give her pill" scenario. Even though this was a tougher watch because of the subject, good job on another great video Steve!!!
@ShinkoFleur In case you missed it, Phil just begged his dents for a $200+ joystick. He's willing to upsell them on a literal toy but $200 for a treatmeant for his son? Nah THATS a scam.
Having used 90% of my wife and I's wedding money so we could care for our elderly diabetic rescue doggo (think THOULSANDS), Phil acting like a 300$ blood test was an upsell fills me with existential rage. Jasper needs an airlift out of the Snortfort.
Phil is going to make Jasper's slow decline all about himself if he's still streaming (and we all know he'll still be streaming). He will bitch and moan about Jasper being blind, puking, peeing everywhere, etc. Something us pet owners dread but we know it happens when they get elderly so we don't make a fuss; it comes with the territory of having a decade with a loving pet. It's going to enrage all us normal pet owners, especially if we had to make that difficult choice to put them to sleep rather than drag out their slow decline over a few weeks. Meanwhile Phil will be begging for money to get Jasper's meds and his vet visits etc.
@@NuclearDetractor The moment he considers Jasper as a nuisance, which he will 100% consider in case Jasper gets sick in any way, he will get rid of him. Since Jasper is microchip-ed he can't just toss him in the alley and call it a day, so it's either donating him to a shelter or euthanasia. You can be sure he will go with whatever is cheaper at that moment.
I completely feel you on that. I dropped like 8k in a week on overnight vets and blood transfusions for my dog because she had ISHA which causes anemia and would have gladly spent more but she got a blood clot in her lung after 1 of the transfusions and that was all she wrote
Best one yet man. Seriously. We’ve joked about it a lot but until seeing this, with all the little nuggets of evidence cut together, I’d not really considered just how bad Jasper’s situation is. Big ups for taking the time to do this. The audio/visual quality and editing are all noticeably improved too.
Phil considers his cat as an merely another object in his sphere, much like a car. He'll deal with it only when the car breaks down not realizing that you need to change the oil, occasionally give it a tune up, add vital fluids..
The part about the Chihuahuas being seen before Jasper. Maybe it was simply an emergency. Last Summer one of my dogs ate a bee and went into anaphylaxis. I called the vet and they said, 'Bring her in. Right now.' So I picked her up as she was shitting and puking simultaneously where she lay, carefully put her in the car and went down to the vet. We were shown straight into one of the waiting rooms. No fuss. No drama. Subtle, but immediate. The rest of the people waiting in the waiting room will have seen us go straight in before them. It's a shame Phil wasn't there, complaining to the 17 year old vetinary assistant about me going in before him, because the way I felt at the time I would have merrily dragged him out into the road and kicked his teeth down his throat.
Phil playing video games : "the game never explained anything" Phil at the vets: "the vet never explained anything" I've never seen a more helpless man in my life that needs constant hand holding in both games and real life
I watched this last night and can feel Steve's frustration with Phil. Like Steve, I'm an avid pet lover and seeing Phil not take being a caretaker seriously is aggravating. I don't care what destructive behavior he inflicts on himself but don't mistreat a pet.
I have had to wait to watch this due to time constraints. You said so many times what I was thinking! Animal neglect is still neglect whether it is done intentionally or out of ignorance. There are so many parts of his story that just don't add up. I think he took a tiny bit of truth and then embellished it so he could play the victim. It is heartbreaking to see any animal mistreated, but when you are a cat lover it makes it worse. I see how you look at your precious baby with such love. I had to say goodbye to my 21 year old kitty last Summer. Her little body just wore out and nothing else could be done. There is an excellent Ted Talk on UA-cam about pet grief. One line in the video hit me so hard, but has given me so much comfort. "Your first rescue brought them joy, and your final rescue brought them peace." Big hugs to you from across the pond. ❤
Just found your channel despite being a detractor for many years. Love the background, especially PWERRIL. Solid, logically sound arguments. Earned my sub for sure. Thanks for covering this absolute nutjob.
Watched this at dumbass hours in the morning and immediately needed to go give my cat some affection. We took him in as a stray, lazy little shit but smart enough after some time living with us to lead us where he wants to go. Kitchen for food, door to go do his business etc. He may sleep like 18 hours a day but when hes up he gets all the attention he can stomach before he wanders off to perch on the window ledge. Love your pets people, make them as happy and comfy as possible
My theory: Kat was usually the one to take Jasper to the Vet. Phil would drop them off and go do something else, then come back to get them. He doesnt really care what happens to Jasper, but when he was inconvenienced in taking him to the vet with Kat, now he gives a rat's ass.
He speaks about the earlier vet trips in a similar way, so I'm tempted to believe he at least goes in with her, though you're right about him not really caring about Jasper, he probably thinks of him as "Kat's cat" when he's not on stream.
Sadly I had to call an end to this one early, it was starting to really affect me. You know when you can feel yourself slipping down a rabbit hole? That.
I legitimately think Phil imagines every business as running like McDonalds. He expects to get service by a faceless employee quickly, no mistakes or unexpected setbacks, and be on his way at low cost. He can't differentiate.
Imagine how furious he would have been if he had showed up on time and been told that he had to wait because they had decided to see someone else who had showed up early.
My cat passed at age of 11 ,did absolutely everything possible to try to save Him(more than I'll do for myself)before have to put him down,cost was secondary for me(I'm not rich or wealthy spent as much as dsp get for jasper reveal)all i want to know is my boy is going be ok?I have small appeal for pets owners don't try to save on them,it will pay back doing check ups and what's necessary .You will say its only cat, I have my hand on him when vet did injection, never cried like this before. Look after your pets
I can't even begin to think about that moment coming up with her, even though she's almost 17 so it'll be coming eventually. So much love and sympathy to you.
Thinking of ignoring my 2 cats hurts, your face when you thought of yours being ethnized from ignorance for her illness. I felt that. When you love your pet(s) they will love you back, waking up to them cuddling you in your sleep is a great feeling. Keep it going my Dood.😻❤❤
I love hearing Phil being the "pet cat expert" when he literally knows nothing. He's just shooting off the cuff but speaking as if he's got a PhD in cat psychology. Everything Phil talks about he's suddenly an expert authority. Delusions of grandeur describes Phil perfectly and it's so funny he is still so offended that people say that about him.
The sad thing is that if he wasn't such a (British word starting with "c") he could have politely said to his vet "I'm a bit strapped for cash, is this really important, that's a lot of money" and any vet I've been to would have explained what everyone in this vid is saying, that it's important to prevent issues from getting too bad. I have an eye doctor who likes getting all the new fancy tests and equipment, and really does like to "upsell" and ask if I want all these tests that probably aren't super important. Even with him, I've asked him "What do I need here?" and he'll say these three are required and these others would be good but I don't need them this time because I don't have these signs yet. Doctors are people too and understand stuff isn't all free. I honestly think his vet would have been well within their rights to say if he won't get required preventative care he needs to find a new veterinarian. Especially since if he's this toxic about it when he is telling his story totally one sided I'm sure he was more of an asshole in real life.
It's not out of the realm of possibility for his vets to have a payment plan for things, so even if he was skint and couldn't afford it, there'd be ways for him to pay it back over a period of time. He just doesn't care enough to ask, because he doesn't see Jasper's health as a priority over the money.
I’ve had 5 cats over my lifetime. Phil is a moron. Coincidentally, the last cat my family took in we got from a relative who was a textbook narcissist (and diagnosed as such) and I see a lot of how DSP treats Jasper the way that relative treated their cat. A lot of surface level showing off about how good the cat is treated, but in reality no money is spent on the animal’s welfare, it’s desperate for attention and stimulation, and the cat would be abandoned on the side of the road if they could get away with it. Based on DSP’s treatment of Jasper and my association with narcissistic pet owners, I 100% believe DSP released his hamsters into the backyard where they would be promptly eaten by owls or he forgot to feed them and they starved to death. DSP is too lazy to make thumbnails for his business, but I’m expected to believe he’ll take care of hamsters? Not a chance.
I said this in the GTG reaction but when Katherine says "if they don't come within 5 mins we're leaving" its so off putting how little they care. They weren't there for Kat. They were there Jasper. They didn't know if he'd been seen. But Kat and Phil are getting bored so it time go. They would've just left without knowing if Jasper was okay.
Remember Steve, "try lifting a Gallon of Milk above your head, you cant, It cant be done." -DSP Jokes aside when i took my step sisters cat to the veterinarian it cost me a close to $400 for bloodwork & a couple of shots without insurance, found out that he was anemic dont know how it happened, sadly my step sister had to move and she wanted to give him to a friend donno what became of the little fluff ball after that.
I feel like I should remind everyone that when Phil said he was "tired" after the Vet visit it was only like 3-4 PM (1-2 hours of driving and doing groceries after the vet visit, which lasted for 2-2.5 hours, so until like 2:30-3:00). This is after he likely woke up at 10 AM. He was so salty about waiting 75 minutes for a pet to get an extensive checkup that he more than likely threw a tantrum in the car after doing grocery shopping (or during it) and his mo-wife had to go "Honey, let's just go home." instead of getting pet supplies, going out to eat, and doing whatever else they do.
why can't p-roach leave his door cracked? It's not like there's anyone else living in the house where he needs closed door privacy. I had horizontal-style handlebar doorknobs and my cat learned to reach up and flip them with her paw and let herself out of my bedroom. STOP LOCKING JASPER IN AND HE WILL STOP WAKING YOU UP
I've always been sure that what happened is one of the vets called in sick or quit or w/e on short notice and they had to call someone who was off that day to fill in, which is why the vet was still in street clothes and still had wet hair. But no everyone's one of The King of Hate's serfs and better be ready to service him at a moment's notice.
Happens everywhere in healthcare. I'm just a pharma tech and there's days a store from like an hour away would call me in to work, I'd just pull up and change in the friggin restroom and get to work. Dude just wanted to piss and moan over nothing as usual
@@tjstarzz9231 it also never once seems to have occurred to them to simply ask if something's wrong, there's two of them so if they confirmed things were behind one of them could have stayed while the other did some of the errands.
As a pet owner, watching this video was really hard. The fact that dsp prefered to spend 400 on a joystick instead of getting Jasper the blood test, speaks volumes of how much of a scumbag he is, he truly doesn't deserve to have a pet.
Phil wanted all the minutiae of the vet appointment explained to him but when the vet tries explaining why Jasper should have bloodwork done, he doesn't want to hear it. Why? Because it might cost him his precious Scopely money.
I consider the first few dozen seconds of this video a preview for the upcoming 'Cat Being Said' show. Also, big ups for summoning up the courage to show the vet visit receipt, thus endangering your family and lineage going at least a thousand years back and into the future. Nevertheless, thank you very much for another great video and all the effort and time you put into it - well worth it.
I'm gonna bet she was in sweats because an animal she saw earlier either threw up, peed, or pooped on her and the scrubs couldn't be salvaged and maybe had to shower to clean up so she didn't smell terrible.
This shit with the vet infuriates me. I lost a dog to cancer three years ago, and I always feel like I could have done more to help him. The fact that Phil isn't willing to spend money for a blood test proves Steve's point, that jasper is just an accessory to phil.
I might be mangling the phrasing but I've heard something to the effect of a scammer is always on edge and on the alert for being scammed as they see nothing but the worst in people as a reflection of themselves. Every time Phil tells a story like this, I'm reminded of this.
Not many things that Phil does genuinely pisses me off. Though if I would think about it, I’m sure there’s lots of examples that would illicit legitimate anger from me. But when Phil makes plenty of money to afford a vet visit and neglects care of the greatest detractor behind enemy lines this goes to top of the list. What a scumbag. Makes you wonder what Phil will do if his parent’s health declines to the point Phil has to make decisions for them. Thankfully they will both probably outlast Phil.
3:22. Remember how he behaved when Panda Lee got panick attacks. "Next time, just give her a pill..." Yeah...his lack of empathy shines through his crooked soul...
Phil was raised by a generation that disrespected service workers and it shows, because he even disrespects field professionals as if they're service workers.
This whole saga pissed me off more than Phil usually does. I've got an almost 17 year old cat with kidney issues and she obviously requires more frequent vet visits. I've also lost a cat to cancer a few years ago. I probably spent over $10,000 (close to maxing out my credit cards) on cancer treatments just to make sure he could stay healthy as long as possible. Phil whining about a $300 test because "he's not sick" is ridiculous. If it weren't for a $300 test, I wouldn't have caught my cat's cancer and would've lost him sooner.
Yeah, even amongst everything else Phil has done, this one's really bad. I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you have many wonderful memories of your cat and the happiness and love he brought into your life.
@@ArchangelSteve Thank you, I really appreciate that. That extra time with him gave me lots of great memories, for which I am incredibly grateful. I'm trying to cherish those memories with my old girl who I know won't be around too much longer. I hope you're able to do the same with your girl and hope she's doing well.
Update: Phil had a meeting with the President of Vets. He said he did nothing wrong and it was the vets fault and apologised. Also I have a friend who is a vet who mainly works on farms. He is self employed. He said if you sell a blood test most of the cost goes to the lab. He said the vet would make about 25% profit max. I love the idea of Phil referring to himself as "poor people". He makes over $100k per year and probably more than some vets.
Also let's just put the pet aspect aside for a second. Humans get preemptive bloodwork done, also. Judging by Phil's reaction, he doesn't even get it done for himself.
This legit infuriates me. I'm not a violent man, but i would fight this man if i saw him in public with how he treats his pet as his "son" but uses him as a clout tool. I had a dog that i treated as my "son" and loved him to death. No price was too steep for a vet, plus i had to go to court to fight for his right to live after he killed a stray cat in my neighborhood (he was a pitbull). During my deployment i took him to a daycare for the whole year i was gone and having to witness him suffer separarion anxiety. In the end i did what was best for him and found him a better home that could be there for him more than i could. He was a rescue, and i miss him all the time. That is the extend of what a pet lover does for their pet. Fuck this guy, I felt your rage Steve and and I've never owned a cat.
Steve you gotta put Shay-Oh-Con on the board (Shao Kahn) I just want to add also, there’s nothing wrong with showing up to an appointment early, I routinely show up to family hospital appointments between 15 and 20 minutes early. The difference is that I’m both prepared to wait for the appointment, as well as knowing there may be more important factors that can delay my appointment. It’s really not that serious that I need to wait a bit longer. Phil on the other hand has to squeeze every last drop of content out of a day with a death choke because apparently he has zero time to spare, so being made to wait UNTIL THE APPOINTED TIME is a MAJOR inconvenience for him. But he’s a Goober Karen so it’s fine. STEVE YOU FORGOT TO ADD CONTRIBUTIONS ARE MANDATORY TO THE MISSPEAK REEL I’ll bet the “tonne of paperwork” he got was a shitload of information sheets about possible diseases the cat could get. Yknow because he refused to get the Bloodwork done.
I agree with his theory that it was maybe 2 sheets of paper and a pamphlet or 2. I guess when you read an empty chat 6 days a week I guess that would look like a mountain of literature
DSP thinks that he avoided getting scammed by not getting his cat a blood test, the only way to tell if anything is wrong with the cat. But he gets his cat, that never leaves the house and the only way Jasper could contract rabies is from either Phil or Kat, a rabies vaccine and doesn't think he got scammed there.
Big respect to you, Steve. Covering a topic so close to your heart is never easy, and is only ever going to be made worse when handling it coming from someone like Phil. I have my reasons for being so personally enraged with the hospital visit story, so I can empathise with how this one hit pet owners such as yourself. You're a good man and a good owner. Just as a side-note, that "Jasper-Kitty" hits my ears like a god damn spiked mallet.
Watching this after seeing how easily Phil dropped over $400 on new toys for himself this week, it's disgusting. People called him out. And he tries to handwave it all away as if he isn't neglecting his cat. I don't care if his supporters believe his BS - most of them are hopeless, anyway. But he's shown who he really is: selfish and irresponsible.
Finally!!! Lol. You put them out, I'll watch them. Thanks for all the work both here and on your podcasts. EDIT: I'm sorry, it's wildly obvious to me what's going on with the vet in the sweat suit. I think it's pretty obvious that she had a dog or cat have violent diarrhea and or vomit all over her work clothes and probably her hair which is why her hair was also wet and she needed to change of clothes. That's probably what was happening that took the extra amount of time as well. Phil has no fucking empathy or concept that other people have situations that happen in their lives. As far as he's concerned, he's the only one that anything difficult has ever happened to. It continually blows my mind over the almost decade that I've watched him. Smh.
Phil's refusal to prepare for the future is endangering the health of his pet, that he has compared to a son. If phil had a choice, he wouldn't have even had this appointment. And even when his pet is openly ill, he refused to get it to the vet. He does not give a fuck about that animal.
Great video Steve. I hope your girl is doing good and has many good years more. Cats are tough little buggers and she's in the best hands, which is more than anyone can say for that twerp's unfortunate 'son.'
As someone who lost their dog after 16 years, this infuriates me how a simple visit to the vet is a nuisance.... I'd do anything to see my dog again and give him a hug. I knew day 1 Phil would fuck up as a pet owner I hope Jasper lives a longer, healthy lifestyle..... But sadly I doubt it when's Phil and Khet's their caretaker.
I love cats. Had one that passed away due to cat aids years ago and never felt so helpless to save another in my life. I already dislike Phil for the manipulate, greedy, able-bodied lazy bum that he is and the blantant mistreatment of a feline really gets me upset. Having a cat that loves being around you is blessing and Phil's tendency to piss on good fortune has gone on long enough in my opinion. I pray Jasper finds a better home before Phil cheaps out on getting him the care and affection he needs.
This vet saga made me so fucking mad. I've taken cats to the vet dozens of times and yes they encourage lab work. Well thanks to one of those "upsells" diagnosed one of my cats with kidney disease. Without those labs I would never have known and I couldnt have treated him and he wouldnt have lived such a long life as he did. Has Phil ever seen a cat pass away from kidney failure? The mewling, the crying, the curling up in a ball in pain? I have. And I've seen it in a young cat before. Get some fucking labs on your cat Phil. I cannot fucking fathom WHY he wouldnt ask why the labs were necessary, what labs could be done and what labs could be put off. I've done this before. Sometimes you can put off certain labs. When my girl cat was getting fixed, they wanted to do like 300 dollars of labs on her. I asked what was absolutely necessary at the time and they cut the bill down to 60 dollars. I went back a few months later to do the other labs. WTF Philbert
Hey Steve, do you think there's any validity to the train of thought that Phil views all interactions as transactional in nature? Like he's almost incapable of viewing any human interaction as just occuring, they all have to be weighed in accordance to what he can take/give?
One of my sisters dogs has just been diagnosed with a rare form of lymphoma, she’s started treatment for him and so far it’s cost in excess of £12K. Luckily she can afford it, but they didn’t think twice about doing whatever is necessary. That’s how normal people do things.
I have just started watching this video .... saw the run time and threw up a silent hell yeah .... your cat looks and sounds just like my Harley cat that passed away earlier this year and she made me smile just seeing her .... anyway .... I mainly wanted to say THANK YOu for saying the things that were screaming in my head when I heard about this .... I am literally 12 minutes in and the amount of times I have said EXACTLY! to your points .... this "man" should not be in control of another animal ... I feel so sorry for his cat it hurts my heart knowing Jasper is there .... again ,.... thank you for putting yourself through this for us all ... your work is greatly appreciated x
@@ArchangelSteve After watching the entire video, I don't think my initial thank you was enough ... the amount of work that went into this video alone is more than I could ever do without crossing the line of wanting to punch something ... *cough*Phil*ahem* .... If I could, I'd be sending care packages of Lucozade and Irn Bru as a show of thanks for the strain you put on your mental health covering this asshat ... oh and please give that little Miss Kitty of yours (I forget if I heard her name at all) hugs and chin scritches, she's adorable ... take care of yourself x
1:21:10 "[Jasper's] personality type is: I'm the center of attention, pay attention to ME." Like father, like son. Also, really looking forward to your analysis of his poor physical self-image that was caused by "childhood psychological trauma."
I very much agree with his take from TBS, there is no way in hell the same mother that allegedly combed Phil's hair into his young adulthood didn't call her little boy handsome
Dont F with cats. If jasper gets seriously hurt/dies young, pig is done. At this point the LARPers and troll tippers/members are enabling abuse, and thats not trolling its cruel
love you steve but this ones tough to sit through because of just how stupid dave is, bugger me. the cat not liking being caged made me facepalm and i had to pause and walk around the house for a bit when hes shocked that turning up early means he has to wait... i think im in physical pain i mustve rolled low on some check against his stupidity cause im hurtin here still, thanks for something to listen to whilst im playing through BG3 , but also up yours for subjecting me to him some more edit: this man doesn't deserve a cat
Time to get Phil on consistency. He shits on the receptionist for stuttering her words and using that as proof of what she actually meant. Phil's words, and I quote: "The vet comes back again-well does-*never* comes back! We never saw the vet again!" So we can confirm, using Phil's own logic, the vet indeed came back, Phil just wants to make up a story for some reason he's not saying.
This just absolutely shows the lack of empathy or care for anyone else but himself. It happened with Panda at the emergency room. It happened with Kat when she was "crying downstairs", and now it's happened with Jasper. I'm starting to truly feel that Phil isn't just a narcissist, he's a full on psychopath. He needs some actual, real help before something horrible happens to him, Kat, or Jasper, because of his lack of care for anyone.
31:00 "they accidentally admitted the doctor is late" literally 10 seconds later "we could hear the doctor inside" how could he be late if he is busy treating pets?
What probably happened is that Phil showed up to the vet, hoping for a quick visit and as little of a vet bill as possible. Having to wait pissed him off and he was already against paying anything extra because he's ear-marked that money for WWE Champions. So he made the decision based on that. All this other stuff is just a justification for not wanting to pay any more than 100 bucks for the vet visit.
omg it is cathartic to see someone else lost their mind about Phil talking about how his cat doesn't like being locked inside of a small cage like it's some unique, novel thing and not something that literally all cats hate
Here’s a thought: Why didn’t the ironic trolls that give him troll clips for The Internet vs Man in Cowboy Hat send him clips of vets explaining the importance of blood tests? Edit: Wait a minute! 2 hours?! He was only out for 2 hours and was too tired to go grocery shopping?! This man lives such a charmed life and he just craps all over it.
the "we were there early" is such a microcosm of why people become detractors its so Infuriating, its so utterly unbelievable that someone can be so indignant and Karen-ish that every human that is capable of staying alive wants to smack him and tell him to STFU its the reason that detractors, even individually, get twice as many views as he does
I think the reason why they weren't allowed in the room with jasper is that they probably made a big fuss while he's been examined previously. As for the vet asking about the bloodwork, the vet probably previously advised Phil before and he thought fuck that, I ain't paying that much.
You just know that his vet have had to suffer DarkSydeKaren complaining about every little thing in the past. That's why they will treat him like a difficult customer.
After you pointed out that Phil must have done *something* to make the vet/staff take Jasper in w/o Phil/Kat, and that it must have had something to do with how Phil reacted toward the vet -- it made me remember how he acted towards the hospital staff during the "Panda emergency situation". With him somehow getting the nurse/staff to bring him sandwiches/snacks, I think there is more to what you might have hinted at. I used to think Phil is the type of guy to "suck it up" in situations where he *thinks* he's been "wronged", but I think the wait actually got to him this time. He must have done something that made the staff determine that this guy should not be allowed in with the vet. Bc. this guy might start making unnecessary demands or some such (might be a bit off base here). I def. think there is more to this particular part. The staff, receptionist, or vet, must have noticed that Phil was "giving them the looks" (e.g., angrily glaring at them). Potentially to the extent that someone determined that it's best to attend to Jasper without any unneeded distractions (a.k.a: we don't need an angry "gamer" to start demanding free lunch or vouchers or make unnecessary verbal attacks, JUST because we happened to have a busy day, or more crucially unhealthy pets to take care of.). 'Nuff said. *DX crotch chops*
27:30 much love dude. Animals are family. - edit - 2:55:05 this whole thing has made me really wonder of the quality of food that he feeds Jasper on a daily basis. I have a feeling it's a very low-grade garbage, and that makes me upset. A high percentage of cancer in animals is due to the food that they are given. Animals deserve proper nutrition.
Well, we know Phil's very proud of the fact that he buys expensive food for Jasper, he makes sure we know about it after all, and we know he's liable to be easily suckered by good marketing and buzzwords, so it's likely Jasper's at least eating food that's not complete garbage.
He really doesn't understand how cats operate and projects himself onto the thing. Usually unless you have a lot of time at home (like he supposedly does) to interact with a cat, you should be getting two since they can interact with each other. The reality check Phil would get from another animal is Jasper would completely ignore his neglectful ass to be around whatever second pet they get.
He probably just assumes they're solitary because that's the general impression most people have of cats, plus his parents' cat was pretty apathetic towards him so he figured it was a loner, and the thought that they grow up in litters and learn to hunt through play never really enters his head.
This was one of the most awful things I've ever seen Phil talk about, and think about what sort of ground that covers. It's painfully obvious that Phil doesn't view Jasper as a pet. He views it as an obligation. Yes there are obligations to having a pet but the idea that he viewed BLOODWORK as an UPSELL, like he just got a new car and complained that the dealer tried to sell him on Simoniz GlassCoat, is enough to make me want to do something I can't mention on here. YEARS without bloodwork is insane. That combined with the story of the cat vomiting "for attention" and not being to use the litterbox because it's overflowing with waste makes me just shake my head in disgust. I didn't have my first real pet (by real I mean one that wasn't contained to a closed environment like a cage or tank) until October 2019, which is my Beagle/Chihuahua mix Lily. Like Phil, I really only got her to shut up someone in my house, being my oldest daughter, who had been (no pun intended) hounding me for years for one. Growing up my parents never let us have a pet, so this was my first real experience with one. It didn't take long for Lily to become a true member of our family, as opposed to just another mouth to feed. When I hear Phil describe Jasper, I sense no feeling of love from him. Isn't one of the big things about being a pet owner is wanting to make your pet feel happy? I always smile when I ask my dog if she wants to walk because she goes nuts with joy because she likes her walks. I love scratching her behind her collar because I can tell she enjoys it by her goofy smile. He gets no joy by doing even the BASIC things for Jasper. It's just another thing he has to deal with instead of playing games badly and/or getting drunk. And from the sound of things, Kat isn't picking up the slack either and has also checked out even though she seems to be the reason the cat is there. This whole thing is just awful. Jasper is clearly not doing well but there isn't anyone there that cares more about that cat than we do, which is so sad. I just hope that Jasper gets saved before it's too late.
Yeah, completely agree mate, even in the pantheon of stupid shit Phil's done, this one's bad. He really doesn't care about Jasper, he doesn't see him as a living thing, for him Jasper's an object like a car, something that needs maintenance every now and then but otherwise should be working fine and not need much input or care. When I think of my cat, I think of stuff like her lying curled up asleep on my lap, licking my nose to wake me up because she's hungry, absolutely murdering a catnip-soaked toy, or howling outside the bathroom because I've dared to want to take a shit in peace. I think of how much I love her, and how much she brings to my life, and how I will keep talking to her even though she's deaf just because I don't want her to feel like I'm not. There is NONE of that from him about Jasper.
"It's just luck of the draw" is just "Nothing I could do" all over again It's so crazy, he convinces himself that there's nothing that can be done, then proceeds to do nothing, and then convinces himself that he did everything that he could have done, therefore he did nothing wrong...AND THEN HE GETS ENOUGH DENT CONTRIBUTIONS TO MAKE DUE...it's honestly so frustrating to see such a wrong, warped perception of reality rewarded (...not with success, I guess, but sustainability is far, FAR more than it deserves)
one of the few times ive been actually mad at Phil. Honestly, its frustating both because what he was wrong and you cant tell him its wrong. i want to scream
Most comments: mental health check in on Steve after enduring this monstrosity Stories about their own pets Dunking on Phil Me: (looking at the black board of pronunciation) jeeeze how many words does Phil mispronounce?! Perhaps Phil should invest in a thesaurus or a dictionary; it can even be wrestling themed. On a side note, regarding Phil complaining about him and Kat not being allowed in with jasper.. if they ever had a kid and they’re in school, Phil would probably be that 1 parent that demands the teacher pass their precious kid because they’re an angel and could do nothing wrong. Every teacher’s worse nightmare
Dude just showing his receipts like he’s not worried about the safety of his family.
Alpha move, Steve.
I don't play Champions so it's fine.
Phil will monetize the shit out of Jasper's eventual demise. "Oh, I'm sooo sad, give me pity bucks." He might even cry after rubbing a water bottle all over his forehead.
Oh hell yeah, Jasper's death is absolutely being monetised. That stream is going to be infuriating.
@@ArchangelSteveImagine the number of pity streams he'll be sure to have. The week after. Each year on the anniversaries of when they got him, the $2000 reveal, and passing. As a cat owner myself it infuriates me. Phil has no shame. Doesn't even know the meaning of the world.
@@GalathNox Infinite pity streams. It's almost like not taking care of him is a part of the plan ...
@@FantasticMrGhost Makes you wonder doesn't it? Almost as if one of the main purposes of Jasper was to provide Phil another tool to use for begging. All of that cat food and litter is expensive, d00ds.
@@GalathNox "Alright, guys. Time for my Jasper Retrospective event. No games will be played (maybe Stray) but I'll show some pictures and then do 6 hours of Jasper-related Q&A. Sound good?"
phil neglecting jasper is so sad. won’t keep the ant poison out of reach, won’t clean his litter box, won’t get him blood work. for someone he considers “family” he sure can’t be bothered to do the bare minimum
Jasper is literally a tip generator from his dents. He doesnt care about Jasper more than the essential. Thats why he declawed him
He's really obsessed with his consumer servants being in uniform because he is so simple minded he requires visual reassurance the person "officially knows what they are doing". Phil is the kind of person who would complain about it to the manager. People like him are why service people have to wear uniforms, be overly nice, etc.
This is why doctors wear o.r scrubs on TV shows like the doctors. If they weren't wearing scrubs how would we know they are doctors. Simple People need visual cues.
Yet you can argue the uniform for his job is crappy T-shirts and gaming PJs but of course we'll let him say what's unprofessional to wear
We're literally reliving the "just give her pill" scenario. Even though this was a tougher watch because of the subject, good job on another great video Steve!!!
@ShinkoFleur In case you missed it, Phil just begged his dents for a $200+ joystick. He's willing to upsell them on a literal toy but $200 for a treatmeant for his son? Nah THATS a scam.
It's exactly that, mate, exactly the same shit, just on a different day awf.
100k for jpegs = correct
300 bucks for his cat = incorrect
Having used 90% of my wife and I's wedding money so we could care for our elderly diabetic rescue doggo (think THOULSANDS), Phil acting like a 300$ blood test was an upsell fills me with existential rage. Jasper needs an airlift out of the Snortfort.
Phil is going to make Jasper's slow decline all about himself if he's still streaming (and we all know he'll still be streaming). He will bitch and moan about Jasper being blind, puking, peeing everywhere, etc. Something us pet owners dread but we know it happens when they get elderly so we don't make a fuss; it comes with the territory of having a decade with a loving pet. It's going to enrage all us normal pet owners, especially if we had to make that difficult choice to put them to sleep rather than drag out their slow decline over a few weeks. Meanwhile Phil will be begging for money to get Jasper's meds and his vet visits etc.
@@NuclearDetractor The moment he considers Jasper as a nuisance, which he will 100% consider in case Jasper gets sick in any way, he will get rid of him. Since Jasper is microchip-ed he can't just toss him in the alley and call it a day, so it's either donating him to a shelter or euthanasia. You can be sure he will go with whatever is cheaper at that moment.
I completely feel you on that. I dropped like 8k in a week on overnight vets and blood transfusions for my dog because she had ISHA which causes anemia and would have gladly spent more but she got a blood clot in her lung after 1 of the transfusions and that was all she wrote
Best one yet man. Seriously.
We’ve joked about it a lot but until seeing this, with all the little nuggets of evidence cut together, I’d not really considered just how bad Jasper’s situation is. Big ups for taking the time to do this.
The audio/visual quality and editing are all noticeably improved too.
Essentially Panda's hospital story, but this time with his ungrateful son Jasper.
Yeah, the parallels are numerous and significant.
Phil considers his cat as an merely another object in his sphere, much like a car. He'll deal with it only when the car breaks down not realizing that you need to change the oil, occasionally give it a tune up, add vital fluids..
The part about the Chihuahuas being seen before Jasper. Maybe it was simply an emergency.
Last Summer one of my dogs ate a bee and went into anaphylaxis. I called the vet and they said, 'Bring her in. Right now.'
So I picked her up as she was shitting and puking simultaneously where she lay, carefully put her in the car and went down to the vet.
We were shown straight into one of the waiting rooms. No fuss. No drama. Subtle, but immediate. The rest of the people waiting in the waiting room will have seen us go straight in before them.
It's a shame Phil wasn't there, complaining to the 17 year old vetinary assistant about me going in before him, because the way I felt at the time I would have merrily dragged him out into the road and kicked his teeth down his throat.
He'd never consider it, because it's not something he's had previous experience of and he can't put himself in other people's shoes.
How did you show a bill on camera like that? I didn’t know that was possible
I don't play WWE Champions so it's fine.
No origami needed my mind is blown.
Phil playing video games : "the game never explained anything"
Phil at the vets: "the vet never explained anything"
I've never seen a more helpless man in my life that needs constant hand holding in both games and real life
I watched this last night and can feel Steve's frustration with Phil. Like Steve, I'm an avid pet lover and seeing Phil not take being a caretaker seriously is aggravating. I don't care what destructive behavior he inflicts on himself but don't mistreat a pet.
It's so infuriating. Him doing stupid shit on him is fine, it's him, I don't care. But Jasper? Jasper's an innocent cat, he deserves better.
I have had to wait to watch this due to time constraints. You said so many times what I was thinking! Animal neglect is still neglect whether it is done intentionally or out of ignorance. There are so many parts of his story that just don't add up. I think he took a tiny bit of truth and then embellished it so he could play the victim.
It is heartbreaking to see any animal mistreated, but when you are a cat lover it makes it worse. I see how you look at your precious baby with such love. I had to say goodbye to my 21 year old kitty last Summer. Her little body just wore out and nothing else could be done.
There is an excellent Ted Talk on UA-cam about pet grief. One line in the video hit me so hard, but has given me so much comfort. "Your first rescue brought them joy, and your final rescue brought them peace." Big hugs to you from across the pond. ❤
Just found your channel despite being a detractor for many years. Love the background, especially PWERRIL. Solid, logically sound arguments. Earned my sub for sure. Thanks for covering this absolute nutjob.
Did you come from TBS or possibly Thus?
Thanks for the sub, mate, hope you enjoy long videos...
Thank you for dissecting this AND enduring it. Heavy topic. I can feel how heavy this felt for you. Sending you some positive vibes.
Thank you; normally Phil's shit isn't too bad to cover, but this one was really difficult, so I really appreciate it.
Watched this at dumbass hours in the morning and immediately needed to go give my cat some affection.
We took him in as a stray, lazy little shit but smart enough after some time living with us to lead us where he wants to go. Kitchen for food, door to go do his business etc.
He may sleep like 18 hours a day but when hes up he gets all the attention he can stomach before he wanders off to perch on the window ledge.
Love your pets people, make them as happy and comfy as possible
My theory: Kat was usually the one to take Jasper to the Vet. Phil would drop them off and go do something else, then come back to get them. He doesnt really care what happens to Jasper, but when he was inconvenienced in taking him to the vet with Kat, now he gives a rat's ass.
He speaks about the earlier vet trips in a similar way, so I'm tempted to believe he at least goes in with her, though you're right about him not really caring about Jasper, he probably thinks of him as "Kat's cat" when he's not on stream.
Under 4 hours, you slipping
Sadly I had to call an end to this one early, it was starting to really affect me. You know when you can feel yourself slipping down a rabbit hole? That.
That's everything with Phil
Seriously. I'm not watching anything under 8 hours
I bet this was especially infuriating, anything more than a 4 hour edit might leave you with permanent psychological damage
@@ArchangelStevethe way your talk about your cat melts my heart
You obviously love her do much 🥹❤
I legitimately think Phil imagines every business as running like McDonalds. He expects to get service by a faceless employee quickly, no mistakes or unexpected setbacks, and be on his way at low cost. He can't differentiate.
He's now openly speaking for Jasper calling him (Phail) "dad".
*cringe*
Phil complaining about a blood test. I spent 1500 on a dog I only owned 6 months. 8 years later she's still here going strong.
That's really good to hear man, I'm really happy for you. Give her a boop from me and Gypsy.
It's a bit ironic that Philip "I only communicate by email" Burnell is against written communication with all of the stuff the vet did on it.
Imagine how furious he would have been if he had showed up on time and been told that he had to wait because they had decided to see someone else who had showed up early.
Oh God, that would've been hilarious!
You are a good man, Steve.
My cat passed at age of 11 ,did absolutely everything possible to try to save Him(more than I'll do for myself)before have to put him down,cost was secondary for me(I'm not rich or wealthy spent as much as dsp get for jasper reveal)all i want to know is my boy is going be ok?I have small appeal for pets owners don't try to save on them,it will pay back doing check ups and what's necessary .You will say its only cat, I have my hand on him when vet did injection, never cried like this before. Look after your pets
I can't even begin to think about that moment coming up with her, even though she's almost 17 so it'll be coming eventually. So much love and sympathy to you.
Thinking of ignoring my 2 cats hurts, your face when you thought of yours being ethnized from ignorance for her illness. I felt that. When you love your pet(s) they will love you back, waking up to them cuddling you in your sleep is a great feeling. Keep it going my Dood.😻❤❤
Yeah but that's how normal people would react Phil only cares about money and himself.
In fact I'm sure he's guilty of ignoring two cats
I love hearing Phil being the "pet cat expert" when he literally knows nothing. He's just shooting off the cuff but speaking as if he's got a PhD in cat psychology. Everything Phil talks about he's suddenly an expert authority. Delusions of grandeur describes Phil perfectly and it's so funny he is still so offended that people say that about him.
The sad thing is that if he wasn't such a (British word starting with "c") he could have politely said to his vet "I'm a bit strapped for cash, is this really important, that's a lot of money" and any vet I've been to would have explained what everyone in this vid is saying, that it's important to prevent issues from getting too bad.
I have an eye doctor who likes getting all the new fancy tests and equipment, and really does like to "upsell" and ask if I want all these tests that probably aren't super important. Even with him, I've asked him "What do I need here?" and he'll say these three are required and these others would be good but I don't need them this time because I don't have these signs yet. Doctors are people too and understand stuff isn't all free.
I honestly think his vet would have been well within their rights to say if he won't get required preventative care he needs to find a new veterinarian. Especially since if he's this toxic about it when he is telling his story totally one sided I'm sure he was more of an asshole in real life.
This is all not to mention he might have been able to finance or do a payment plan
It's not out of the realm of possibility for his vets to have a payment plan for things, so even if he was skint and couldn't afford it, there'd be ways for him to pay it back over a period of time. He just doesn't care enough to ask, because he doesn't see Jasper's health as a priority over the money.
I’ve had 5 cats over my lifetime. Phil is a moron. Coincidentally, the last cat my family took in we got from a relative who was a textbook narcissist (and diagnosed as such) and I see a lot of how DSP treats Jasper the way that relative treated their cat. A lot of surface level showing off about how good the cat is treated, but in reality no money is spent on the animal’s welfare, it’s desperate for attention and stimulation, and the cat would be abandoned on the side of the road if they could get away with it.
Based on DSP’s treatment of Jasper and my association with narcissistic pet owners, I 100% believe DSP released his hamsters into the backyard where they would be promptly eaten by owls or he forgot to feed them and they starved to death. DSP is too lazy to make thumbnails for his business, but I’m expected to believe he’ll take care of hamsters? Not a chance.
He probably thought they were hibernating. For years.
I said this in the GTG reaction but when Katherine says "if they don't come within 5 mins we're leaving" its so off putting how little they care. They weren't there for Kat. They were there Jasper. They didn't know if he'd been seen. But Kat and Phil are getting bored so it time go. They would've just left without knowing if Jasper was okay.
That is a good point but I'd like to give Kat the benefit of the doubt and assume she cares about Jasper, at least more than Phil does
@@error_404.69 Maybe. She probably wasn't even the one to say that. And if it was Phil it's just another indicator of his narcissism.
Yeah, I think he might be putting words in her mouth here.
Remember Steve, "try lifting a Gallon of Milk above your head, you cant, It cant be done."
-DSP
Jokes aside when i took my step sisters cat to the veterinarian it cost me a close to $400 for bloodwork & a couple of shots without insurance, found out that he was anemic dont know how it happened, sadly my step sister had to move and she wanted to give him to a friend donno what became of the little fluff ball after that.
What if you can lift 6 gallons of milk over your head?
@@LouisianaGirly Then you will be banned
@@LouisianaGirly Then that is impossible times six, obviously, dood.
@@LouisianaGirlyit can't be done dood.
I feel like I should remind everyone that when Phil said he was "tired" after the Vet visit it was only like 3-4 PM (1-2 hours of driving and doing groceries after the vet visit, which lasted for 2-2.5 hours, so until like 2:30-3:00). This is after he likely woke up at 10 AM.
He was so salty about waiting 75 minutes for a pet to get an extensive checkup that he more than likely threw a tantrum in the car after doing grocery shopping (or during it) and his mo-wife had to go "Honey, let's just go home." instead of getting pet supplies, going out to eat, and doing whatever else they do.
Can't believe that never even occurred to me, but holy shit that's hilarious!
"IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE PUTTIN 'IM IN A FAUCKIN' CAGE!"
For some reason this absolutely slayed me.
why can't p-roach leave his door cracked? It's not like there's anyone else living in the house where he needs closed door privacy. I had horizontal-style handlebar doorknobs and my cat learned to reach up and flip them with her paw and let herself out of my bedroom. STOP LOCKING JASPER IN AND HE WILL STOP WAKING YOU UP
I've always been sure that what happened is one of the vets called in sick or quit or w/e on short notice and they had to call someone who was off that day to fill in, which is why the vet was still in street clothes and still had wet hair. But no everyone's one of The King of Hate's serfs and better be ready to service him at a moment's notice.
He accuses everyone else of things he's guilty of. The amount of times he accused door dash driers.
Happens everywhere in healthcare. I'm just a pharma tech and there's days a store from like an hour away would call me in to work, I'd just pull up and change in the friggin restroom and get to work. Dude just wanted to piss and moan over nothing as usual
@@tjstarzz9231 it also never once seems to have occurred to them to simply ask if something's wrong, there's two of them so if they confirmed things were behind one of them could have stayed while the other did some of the errands.
As a pet owner, watching this video was really hard. The fact that dsp prefered to spend 400 on a joystick instead of getting Jasper the blood test, speaks volumes of how much of a scumbag he is, he truly doesn't deserve to have a pet.
Phil wanted all the minutiae of the vet appointment explained to him but when the vet tries explaining why Jasper should have bloodwork done, he doesn't want to hear it. Why? Because it might cost him his precious Scopely money.
I consider the first few dozen seconds of this video a preview for the upcoming 'Cat Being Said' show. Also, big ups for summoning up the courage to show the vet visit receipt, thus endangering your family and lineage going at least a thousand years back and into the future.
Nevertheless, thank you very much for another great video and all the effort and time you put into it - well worth it.
I'm gonna bet she was in sweats because an animal she saw earlier either threw up, peed, or pooped on her and the scrubs couldn't be salvaged and maybe had to shower to clean up so she didn't smell terrible.
This shit with the vet infuriates me.
I lost a dog to cancer three years ago, and I always feel like I could have done more to help him. The fact that Phil isn't willing to spend money for a blood test proves Steve's point, that jasper is just an accessory to phil.
I might be mangling the phrasing but I've heard something to the effect of a scammer is always on edge and on the alert for being scammed as they see nothing but the worst in people as a reflection of themselves. Every time Phil tells a story like this, I'm reminded of this.
100% truth.
Not many things that Phil does genuinely pisses me off. Though if I would think about it, I’m sure there’s lots of examples that would illicit legitimate anger from me. But when Phil makes plenty of money to afford a vet visit and neglects care of the greatest detractor behind enemy lines this goes to top of the list. What a scumbag.
Makes you wonder what Phil will do if his parent’s health declines to the point Phil has to make decisions for them. Thankfully they will both probably outlast Phil.
3:22. Remember how he behaved when Panda Lee got panick attacks.
"Next time, just give her a pill..."
Yeah...his lack of empathy shines through his crooked soul...
@7:04 "We had to park outside." As opposed to parking inside the vet clinic's waiting room?
One of those Phil moments where you’re like yeah, this guy is a real POS
Many such cases.
@@teddyshapedsoap Concerning.
Phil was raised by a generation that disrespected service workers and it shows, because he even disrespects field professionals as if they're service workers.
he american go figure
This whole saga pissed me off more than Phil usually does. I've got an almost 17 year old cat with kidney issues and she obviously requires more frequent vet visits. I've also lost a cat to cancer a few years ago. I probably spent over $10,000 (close to maxing out my credit cards) on cancer treatments just to make sure he could stay healthy as long as possible. Phil whining about a $300 test because "he's not sick" is ridiculous. If it weren't for a $300 test, I wouldn't have caught my cat's cancer and would've lost him sooner.
Yeah, even amongst everything else Phil has done, this one's really bad.
I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you have many wonderful memories of your cat and the happiness and love he brought into your life.
@@ArchangelSteve Thank you, I really appreciate that. That extra time with him gave me lots of great memories, for which I am incredibly grateful. I'm trying to cherish those memories with my old girl who I know won't be around too much longer. I hope you're able to do the same with your girl and hope she's doing well.
Update: Phil had a meeting with the President of Vets. He said he did nothing wrong and it was the vets fault and apologised. Also I have a friend who is a vet who mainly works on farms. He is self employed. He said if you sell a blood test most of the cost goes to the lab. He said the vet would make about 25% profit max. I love the idea of Phil referring to himself as "poor people". He makes over $100k per year and probably more than some vets.
Phil understands the world through food and restaurant metaphors.
And scat.
Also let's just put the pet aspect aside for a second. Humans get preemptive bloodwork done, also. Judging by Phil's reaction, he doesn't even get it done for himself.
This legit infuriates me. I'm not a violent man, but i would fight this man if i saw him in public with how he treats his pet as his "son" but uses him as a clout tool.
I had a dog that i treated as my "son" and loved him to death. No price was too steep for a vet, plus i had to go to court to fight for his right to live after he killed a stray cat in my neighborhood (he was a pitbull). During my deployment i took him to a daycare for the whole year i was gone and having to witness him suffer separarion anxiety. In the end i did what was best for him and found him a better home that could be there for him more than i could. He was a rescue, and i miss him all the time. That is the extend of what a pet lover does for their pet.
Fuck this guy, I felt your rage Steve and and I've never owned a cat.
Steve you gotta put Shay-Oh-Con on the board (Shao Kahn)
I just want to add also, there’s nothing wrong with showing up to an appointment early, I routinely show up to family hospital appointments between 15 and 20 minutes early.
The difference is that I’m both prepared to wait for the appointment, as well as knowing there may be more important factors that can delay my appointment. It’s really not that serious that I need to wait a bit longer.
Phil on the other hand has to squeeze every last drop of content out of a day with a death choke because apparently he has zero time to spare, so being made to wait UNTIL THE APPOINTED TIME is a MAJOR inconvenience for him.
But he’s a Goober Karen so it’s fine.
STEVE YOU FORGOT TO ADD CONTRIBUTIONS ARE MANDATORY TO THE MISSPEAK REEL
I’ll bet the “tonne of paperwork” he got was a shitload of information sheets about possible diseases the cat could get.
Yknow because he refused to get the Bloodwork done.
I agree with his theory that it was maybe 2 sheets of paper and a pamphlet or 2.
I guess when you read an empty chat 6 days a week I guess that would look like a mountain of literature
Oh fuck, I've never watched his MK stuff, I had no idea he was getting THAT wrong!
Sadly, we all know what Phil will do when jasper gets sick or worse.
DSP thinks that he avoided getting scammed by not getting his cat a blood test, the only way to tell if anything is wrong with the cat. But he gets his cat, that never leaves the house and the only way Jasper could contract rabies is from either Phil or Kat, a rabies vaccine and doesn't think he got scammed there.
Shyamalan-esque twist!
Big respect to you, Steve. Covering a topic so close to your heart is never easy, and is only ever going to be made worse when handling it coming from someone like Phil.
I have my reasons for being so personally enraged with the hospital visit story, so I can empathise with how this one hit pet owners such as yourself. You're a good man and a good owner.
Just as a side-note, that "Jasper-Kitty" hits my ears like a god damn spiked mallet.
Watching this after seeing how easily Phil dropped over $400 on new toys for himself this week, it's disgusting.
People called him out. And he tries to handwave it all away as if he isn't neglecting his cat. I don't care if his supporters believe his BS - most of them are hopeless, anyway. But he's shown who he really is: selfish and irresponsible.
Finally!!! Lol. You put them out, I'll watch them. Thanks for all the work both here and on your podcasts.
EDIT: I'm sorry, it's wildly obvious to me what's going on with the vet in the sweat suit. I think it's pretty obvious that she had a dog or cat have violent diarrhea and or vomit all over her work clothes and probably her hair which is why her hair was also wet and she needed to change of clothes. That's probably what was happening that took the extra amount of time as well. Phil has no fucking empathy or concept that other people have situations that happen in their lives. As far as he's concerned, he's the only one that anything difficult has ever happened to. It continually blows my mind over the almost decade that I've watched him. Smh.
Thanks for all you do, Steve. Phil's best antics remind us of what's important and to treat it that way.
Phil's refusal to prepare for the future is endangering the health of his pet, that he has compared to a son. If phil had a choice, he wouldn't have even had this appointment.
And even when his pet is openly ill, he refused to get it to the vet. He does not give a fuck about that animal.
Great video Steve. I hope your girl is doing good and has many good years more. Cats are tough little buggers and she's in the best hands, which is more than anyone can say for that twerp's unfortunate 'son.'
Awww, thank you, given how difficult the subject matter made this one that really means a lot to me.
@@ArchangelSteve Big ups to Gypsy of the Dead, we all wish her (and you) only the best.
As someone who lost their dog after 16 years, this infuriates me how a simple visit to the vet is a nuisance.... I'd do anything to see my dog again and give him a hug. I knew day 1 Phil would fuck up as a pet owner
I hope Jasper lives a longer, healthy lifestyle..... But sadly I doubt it when's Phil and Khet's their caretaker.
I love cats. Had one that passed away due to cat aids years ago and never felt so helpless to save another in my life. I already dislike Phil for the manipulate, greedy, able-bodied lazy bum that he is and the blantant mistreatment of a feline really gets me upset. Having a cat that loves being around you is blessing and Phil's tendency to piss on good fortune has gone on long enough in my opinion.
I pray Jasper finds a better home before Phil cheaps out on getting him the care and affection he needs.
Aww, mate, I'm so sorry to hear that, much love and sympathy to you.
Jasper "sixty frames" KiT-Ty better stop misbehaving ...
This vet saga made me so fucking mad. I've taken cats to the vet dozens of times and yes they encourage lab work. Well thanks to one of those "upsells" diagnosed one of my cats with kidney disease. Without those labs I would never have known and I couldnt have treated him and he wouldnt have lived such a long life as he did. Has Phil ever seen a cat pass away from kidney failure? The mewling, the crying, the curling up in a ball in pain? I have. And I've seen it in a young cat before. Get some fucking labs on your cat Phil. I cannot fucking fathom WHY he wouldnt ask why the labs were necessary, what labs could be done and what labs could be put off. I've done this before. Sometimes you can put off certain labs. When my girl cat was getting fixed, they wanted to do like 300 dollars of labs on her. I asked what was absolutely necessary at the time and they cut the bill down to 60 dollars. I went back a few months later to do the other labs. WTF Philbert
He's such a hermit that he makes a big deal about every mundane, everyday thing. The outside world is such a weird place to Phil
Hey Steve, do you think there's any validity to the train of thought that Phil views all interactions as transactional in nature? Like he's almost incapable of viewing any human interaction as just occuring, they all have to be weighed in accordance to what he can take/give?
100% yes, that's a core trait of narcissism so I absolutely believe we see it with Phil.
Ah yes, Steve of the dead.
OH SHIT NOW ITS TIME FOR BED
One of my sisters dogs has just been diagnosed with a rare form of lymphoma, she’s started treatment for him and so far it’s cost in excess of £12K. Luckily she can afford it, but they didn’t think twice about doing whatever is necessary. That’s how normal people do things.
Oh god, that sounds horrendous! Much love and support to them, nobody should have to go through that.
@@ArchangelSteve Thanks man. Yeah it sucks for sure.
I have just started watching this video .... saw the run time and threw up a silent hell yeah .... your cat looks and sounds just like my Harley cat that passed away earlier this year and she made me smile just seeing her .... anyway .... I mainly wanted to say THANK YOu for saying the things that were screaming in my head when I heard about this .... I am literally 12 minutes in and the amount of times I have said EXACTLY! to your points .... this "man" should not be in control of another animal ... I feel so sorry for his cat it hurts my heart knowing Jasper is there .... again ,.... thank you for putting yourself through this for us all ... your work is greatly appreciated x
Thank you, that really means a lot to me after this one.
@@ArchangelSteve After watching the entire video, I don't think my initial thank you was enough ... the amount of work that went into this video alone is more than I could ever do without crossing the line of wanting to punch something ... *cough*Phil*ahem* .... If I could, I'd be sending care packages of Lucozade and Irn Bru as a show of thanks for the strain you put on your mental health covering this asshat ... oh and please give that little Miss Kitty of yours (I forget if I heard her name at all) hugs and chin scritches, she's adorable ... take care of yourself x
1:21:10 "[Jasper's] personality type is: I'm the center of attention, pay attention to ME."
Like father, like son.
Also, really looking forward to your analysis of his poor physical self-image that was caused by "childhood psychological trauma."
I very much agree with his take from TBS, there is no way in hell the same mother that allegedly combed Phil's hair into his young adulthood didn't call her little boy handsome
2024, DSP: My ex vet killed my cat with UTI medication!!!!
Phil doesn’t deserve to own a pet, really sad.
Dont F with cats. If jasper gets seriously hurt/dies young, pig is done.
At this point the LARPers and troll tippers/members are enabling abuse, and thats not trolling its cruel
First time I’ve ever fallen asleep to one of your videos and you’re not still talking when I’ve woken up.
Miracles do happen!
Phil may as well dropped Khet with Jasper off at the vet and sat in the car and played WWE Champs the whole time.
love you steve but this ones tough to sit through because of just how stupid dave is, bugger me. the cat not liking being caged made me facepalm and i had to pause and walk around the house for a bit when hes shocked that turning up early means he has to wait... i think im in physical pain i mustve rolled low on some check against his stupidity cause im hurtin here
still, thanks for something to listen to whilst im playing through BG3 , but also up yours for subjecting me to him some more
edit: this man doesn't deserve a cat
Time to get Phil on consistency. He shits on the receptionist for stuttering her words and using that as proof of what she actually meant.
Phil's words, and I quote:
"The vet comes back again-well does-*never* comes back! We never saw the vet again!"
So we can confirm, using Phil's own logic, the vet indeed came back, Phil just wants to make up a story for some reason he's not saying.
This just absolutely shows the lack of empathy or care for anyone else but himself. It happened with Panda at the emergency room. It happened with Kat when she was "crying downstairs", and now it's happened with Jasper. I'm starting to truly feel that Phil isn't just a narcissist, he's a full on psychopath. He needs some actual, real help before something horrible happens to him, Kat, or Jasper, because of his lack of care for anyone.
blame his parent for spoiling this guy still to these day
31:00 "they accidentally admitted the doctor is late" literally 10 seconds later "we could hear the doctor inside" how could he be late if he is busy treating pets?
He needed that money for his WWE pulls, doordash, and total wine. Also thank you for making my friday at work entertaining.
What probably happened is that Phil showed up to the vet, hoping for a quick visit and as little of a vet bill as possible. Having to wait pissed him off and he was already against paying anything extra because he's ear-marked that money for WWE Champions.
So he made the decision based on that. All this other stuff is just a justification for not wanting to pay any more than 100 bucks for the vet visit.
omg it is cathartic to see someone else lost their mind about Phil talking about how his cat doesn't like being locked inside of a small cage like it's some unique, novel thing and not something that literally all cats hate
It was so stupid, how does he NOT know?
Here’s a thought: Why didn’t the ironic trolls that give him troll clips for The Internet vs Man in Cowboy Hat send him clips of vets explaining the importance of blood tests?
Edit: Wait a minute! 2 hours?! He was only out for 2 hours and was too tired to go grocery shopping?! This man lives such a charmed life and he just craps all over it.
I really want to see people asking him during a Q&A "Hey Phil, how's Jasper's thyroid levels?"
Phils a character. I hope after he kicks off from massive cardiac arrest in 10 years or so khet donates his brain to science.
I would guarantee it's smooth with damage from alcohol of course
I would kill for a scan, I could learn so much about him from one...
the "we were there early" is such a microcosm of why people become detractors
its so Infuriating, its so utterly unbelievable that someone can be so indignant and Karen-ish that every human that is capable of staying alive wants to smack him and tell him to STFU
its the reason that detractors, even individually, get twice as many views as he does
I think the reason why they weren't allowed in the room with jasper is that they probably made a big fuss while he's been examined previously. As for the vet asking about the bloodwork, the vet probably previously advised Phil before and he thought fuck that, I ain't paying that much.
You just know that his vet have had to suffer DarkSydeKaren complaining about every little thing in the past. That's why they will treat him like a difficult customer.
After you pointed out that Phil must have done *something* to make the vet/staff take Jasper in w/o Phil/Kat, and that it must have had something to do with how Phil reacted toward the vet -- it made me remember how he acted towards the hospital staff during the "Panda emergency situation".
With him somehow getting the nurse/staff to bring him sandwiches/snacks, I think there is more to what you might have hinted at.
I used to think Phil is the type of guy to "suck it up" in situations where he *thinks* he's been "wronged", but I think the wait actually got to him this time. He must have done something that made the staff determine that this guy should not be allowed in with the vet. Bc. this guy might start making unnecessary demands or some such (might be a bit off base here).
I def. think there is more to this particular part. The staff, receptionist, or vet, must have noticed that Phil was "giving them the looks" (e.g., angrily glaring at them). Potentially to the extent that someone determined that it's best to attend to Jasper without any unneeded distractions (a.k.a: we don't need an angry "gamer" to start demanding free lunch or vouchers or make unnecessary verbal attacks, JUST because we happened to have a busy day, or more crucially unhealthy pets to take care of.).
'Nuff said. *DX crotch chops*
And for anyone reading this, I think 1:37:59 is pretty much the perfect summation of DSP as a pet owner really.
^ Very well put, Steve
Yeah, there's definitely more to this than he's letting on, you don't get a "you can't go in there just because" for nothing.
Perfect thing to watch while im sick with covid 🥲
Oh God, hope you get better soon.
get well soon homie
27:30 much love dude. Animals are family.
- edit - 2:55:05 this whole thing has made me really wonder of the quality of food that he feeds Jasper on a daily basis. I have a feeling it's a very low-grade garbage, and that makes me upset. A high percentage of cancer in animals is due to the food that they are given.
Animals deserve proper nutrition.
Damn straight.
Well, we know Phil's very proud of the fact that he buys expensive food for Jasper, he makes sure we know about it after all, and we know he's liable to be easily suckered by good marketing and buzzwords, so it's likely Jasper's at least eating food that's not complete garbage.
@@ArchangelSteve well that's good to know at least. I must have missed that part.
It’s 4am. I’ll just watch one more video…
We've all been there...
On the topic of cats in a cage... OF COURSE Jasper doesn't like being in a carrier... How would YOU like to be trapped in a cage with no escape Phil!?
I mean isn't him in one already though?
@@ZeroFrogRaven1287 after I posted that, I thought exactly that.
He really doesn't understand how cats operate and projects himself onto the thing. Usually unless you have a lot of time at home (like he supposedly does) to interact with a cat, you should be getting two since they can interact with each other. The reality check Phil would get from another animal is Jasper would completely ignore his neglectful ass to be around whatever second pet they get.
He probably just assumes they're solitary because that's the general impression most people have of cats, plus his parents' cat was pretty apathetic towards him so he figured it was a loner, and the thought that they grow up in litters and learn to hunt through play never really enters his head.
This was one of the most awful things I've ever seen Phil talk about, and think about what sort of ground that covers.
It's painfully obvious that Phil doesn't view Jasper as a pet. He views it as an obligation. Yes there are obligations to having a pet but the idea that he viewed BLOODWORK as an UPSELL, like he just got a new car and complained that the dealer tried to sell him on Simoniz GlassCoat, is enough to make me want to do something I can't mention on here. YEARS without bloodwork is insane. That combined with the story of the cat vomiting "for attention" and not being to use the litterbox because it's overflowing with waste makes me just shake my head in disgust.
I didn't have my first real pet (by real I mean one that wasn't contained to a closed environment like a cage or tank) until October 2019, which is my Beagle/Chihuahua mix Lily. Like Phil, I really only got her to shut up someone in my house, being my oldest daughter, who had been (no pun intended) hounding me for years for one. Growing up my parents never let us have a pet, so this was my first real experience with one. It didn't take long for Lily to become a true member of our family, as opposed to just another mouth to feed. When I hear Phil describe Jasper, I sense no feeling of love from him. Isn't one of the big things about being a pet owner is wanting to make your pet feel happy? I always smile when I ask my dog if she wants to walk because she goes nuts with joy because she likes her walks. I love scratching her behind her collar because I can tell she enjoys it by her goofy smile. He gets no joy by doing even the BASIC things for Jasper. It's just another thing he has to deal with instead of playing games badly and/or getting drunk. And from the sound of things, Kat isn't picking up the slack either and has also checked out even though she seems to be the reason the cat is there.
This whole thing is just awful. Jasper is clearly not doing well but there isn't anyone there that cares more about that cat than we do, which is so sad. I just hope that Jasper gets saved before it's too late.
Yeah, completely agree mate, even in the pantheon of stupid shit Phil's done, this one's bad. He really doesn't care about Jasper, he doesn't see him as a living thing, for him Jasper's an object like a car, something that needs maintenance every now and then but otherwise should be working fine and not need much input or care. When I think of my cat, I think of stuff like her lying curled up asleep on my lap, licking my nose to wake me up because she's hungry, absolutely murdering a catnip-soaked toy, or howling outside the bathroom because I've dared to want to take a shit in peace. I think of how much I love her, and how much she brings to my life, and how I will keep talking to her even though she's deaf just because I don't want her to feel like I'm not. There is NONE of that from him about Jasper.
Fantastic vid .. im a dog dad but love all animals.. its a responsibility not just a pet!! Irks me everytime!! Thanks steve keep it up brotha.
"It's just luck of the draw" is just "Nothing I could do" all over again
It's so crazy, he convinces himself that there's nothing that can be done, then proceeds to do nothing, and then convinces himself that he did everything that he could have done, therefore he did nothing wrong...AND THEN HE GETS ENOUGH DENT CONTRIBUTIONS TO MAKE DUE...it's honestly so frustrating to see such a wrong, warped perception of reality rewarded (...not with success, I guess, but sustainability is far, FAR more than it deserves)
one of the few times ive been actually mad at Phil. Honestly, its frustating both because what he was wrong and you cant tell him its wrong. i want to scream
Most comments:
mental health check in on Steve after enduring this monstrosity
Stories about their own pets
Dunking on Phil
Me: (looking at the black board of pronunciation) jeeeze how many words does Phil mispronounce?! Perhaps Phil should invest in a thesaurus or a dictionary; it can even be wrestling themed.
On a side note, regarding Phil complaining about him and Kat not being allowed in with jasper.. if they ever had a kid and they’re in school, Phil would probably be that 1 parent that demands the teacher pass their precious kid because they’re an angel and could do nothing wrong. Every teacher’s worse nightmare
Phil is Duning-Kruger personified.
