Penguinz0 Reacts to Billy Mitchell's Wild Doctor Excuse
The sheer audacity of Billy Mitchell to claim his doctor won't even see him because of the Donkey Kong drama has to be a new level of delusion. This dude is in a legal deposition, under oath, and his go-to move is to say the 'public humiliation' from the cheating scandal has made him medically untouchable. He's not just saying the stress is bad; he's alleging his own physician has completely ghosted him over the whole affair. You just can't make this stuff up. The man who built a career on a classic arcade game is now using it as a shield against getting a routine check-up, and he says it with a straight face. It gets so much wilder, because he doesn't stop with the doctor excuse. He's also trying to pin a hernia and atrial fibrillation on this whole ordeal, claiming the stress of being called out for faking video game scores literally caused his body to physically break down. As penguinz0 points out, it's a masterclass in avoiding accountability at all costs. Instead of addressing the core accusations from Twin Galaxies about his scores, he's crafting this bizarre narrative where he's the ultimate victim of a joystick witch hunt. It's a medical soap opera, and the main character is a guy famous for his hot sauce and Pac-Man skills. This whole spectacle stems from him getting his records wiped and being banned for submitting scores from an emulator instead of a legitimate arcade machine. For years, he's been on this unhinged crusade to clear his name, and it's led to absolute goldmines like this deposition. The clip is just a perfect storm of absurdity, and you can see the gears turning in his head as he cooks up these excuses. Watching moistcr1tikal break down the deadpan delivery of these claims is the only way to fully process the insanity. It’s a truly spectacular display from one of gaming's most infamous figures.
