Re: Dan & Phil Part 83: Where in the World is Daniel Howell

I think we'd get just the same If the roles were reversed. Maybe Dan would react with a little more spirit and actually respond to the hundreds of comments flooding his screen. That by itself may trigger a "DaN iS INseSiTIVE" war v234.3 on social media, and it'd be another nice example of ...

Re: Dan & Phil Part 83: Where in the World is Daniel Howell

Yea I wish people would treat them as individuals and respect their individual content. It's Phil's channel and he has in no way indicated Dan would be in the video (unless... Dan's adopted a cowsonna? ). To keep asking for Dan every time Phil communicates is a bit rude and I imagine it can be dishe...

Re: PewDiePie

goodbants I agree it's everything but straightforward. In my view It's also easy and even lazy to try pin the trend of white supremacist violence on an individual. It's much harder to understand the reasons that makes the alt-right such a political force to start with. (first time actually posting ...

Re: PewDiePie

Nah that's fine like I said I don't think this is a particularly good place to debate the issues anyway but at least someone lurking around the forums can read a differing opinion instead of thinking everyone in the fandom thinks extremely negative about Felix. Which just isn't the case but one migh...

It was a truly offensive stab to IKEA-loving decorators everywhere :lol: !
I do have to agree that Phil's set looked picture perfect and should really have been sponsored by IKEA. Those bed sheets lasted a lifetime.

He could have, and I think it would have been better to leave that part out even though it's really hard to evaluate the claims he makes and they might actually be correct.

Re: Dan & Phil Part 83: Where in the World is Daniel Howell

@the Felix unfollow by Dan. Well i'm not angry, but would be disappointed at Dan if his unfollow would be related to him agreeing with the discourse that Felix was an active supporter of the white supremacy movement. As I don't think that's a fair assessment of Felix at all (though I disagree with h...

It's actually starting to get suspicious that we haven't seen Dan in any story or picture for so long. I wonder if he's even staying at the house. We've barely seen Phil in the flat either so I don't think it's anything too suspicious. They definitely are being private for a reason but Dan has been...

In Belgium, you can choose your own doctor (GP in the UK?) but you normally go to the same one (we call it the "house doctor"). I switched doctor's on the advice of a friend that doesn't live with me at all, so it's not that unusual or funny to me that you end up going to the same doctors ...

I don't think we've gotten any clear indications of them moving and I think the 'hints' people see are really ambiguous and probably not meant as such. -The hiatus has more to do with their state of mind and health, a longing for some rest after a busy touring year and maybe some time to figure out ...

Re: Dan & Phil Part 83: Where in the World is Daniel Howell

I enjoyed Phil’s video yesterday and the videos he’s filmed since the beginning of the year and even though they aren’t “deep” I feel like he is telling us little anecdotes about himself that he might not have shared a few years ago. Also thinking about Phil’s relationship to the audience I think t...
