Dan Liveshow (joint) - 27 October 2018

That liveshow was great! I don’t know if it was actually the candy’s fault like Dan and Phil said, but they did seem extra zazzed to me, and I loved it. Here are my highlights:

• [0:13] Dan pulls a fun face. My other favorite Dan faces happen at [2:47], [20:28] (plus a bonus snort at [20:32]), [24:11], and [26:31]. My favorite Phil faces happen at [20:28], [23:09], and [26:31].
• [1:09] Dan points out that he is wearing an edible necklace, and he starts to eat it. He continues to (loudly) eat it throughout the liveshow. Specifically, eating of the necklace happens at [2:16], [7:33], [8:12], [15:42], [15:56], and [17:09] (and, who knows, there may be more). After Dan is finished eating the necklace, he’s not done. He continues to play with the empty elastic string, which can be seen at [25:28] and [26:55]. A bonus food/drink prop comes into play when he takes a sip of water at [19:32].
• [1:41] Dan points out that he’s wearing a see through sweater, and he goes through great lengths to expose his nipple to all of us ([1:58]). This happens again at [5:31].
• [2:47] We get some hints about the video that’s replacing Halloween baking this year. It will involve a skull and a lot of candy and danger. At [4:56], it is revealed that the video will be on AmazingPhil.
• [6:37] I first took note of this moment because I thought it implied that Dan is 100% a furry. Upon rewatching, I thought it implied that Dan is 100% not a furry. I now realize that it says nothing about whether or not Dan is a furry.

  P: Everyone’s blocked you, though, now.
  D: Yeah.
  P: You’re just on your own.
  D: Um, that’s fair enough.
  P: You’re just speaking into a vacuum.
  D: That’s fair enough. It’s like a filter.
  P: A Phil-ter.
  D: Um, it’s me and the one percent of my followers that are actual furries.

• [7:09] There’s apparently going to be a story in the directors’ commentary of Interactive Introverts of a guy who threw himself on the floor? (the audio cut out here) during Interactive Introverts when he felt like Dan and Phil were publicly shaming him for being a furry. That sounds interesting.
• [8:33] Phil screams adorably because Dan acts like he’s going to fling candy off of his necklace at him. Dan then flings candy at the camera instead.
• [10:28] Phil talks about a time when Dan was trying to tether using his phone while holding it in his mouth. After some confusion, Dan denies that this ever happened, and Phil quickly drops it. Something seems fishy to me.
• [11:24] A perfectly reasonable statement from Phil:

  P: We wanted to dip our toes into Granny.

• [13:05] Dan says “uwu” and “owo” as words like Phil’s been doing in the past few liveshows.
• [13:50] Dan impersonates Phil:

  D: Phil’s like, “Ow, my hand hurts!” He spends all day biting his hangnails.
  ...
  D: And then you’re going to rip it off and then you’re going to be like, “Ow, my huuuuuur!”

• [14:04] Dan thinks fursuits are too chunky and should be slimmer. He wishes fursuits fit like Spider-Man’s suit but with fluff. If he were an entrepreneur in the furry community, he would develop skin-tight, latex-based fursuits. Phil is startled (as am I...kinda) by how much detailed thought Dan has given this matter.
• [15:07] Dan gives some hints about the kinds of games we can expect from the rest of Spooky Week. Dan and Phil think this might be their favorite selection of games for Spooky Week ever.
• [16:03] Phil would never do a video with a Ouija board, in part, because his mother is very superstitious and, in part, because he’s afraid of what supernatural phenomena might actually happen. I really hope he sees this timely Tumblr post from earlier today:
• [18:15] Phil’s going to visit his family up North in “the next few days.”
• [18:47] This gave me a funny mental image of Dan having the time of his life dressed up as a cowboy riding a toy stick horse around their apartment while Phil is away.

  P: Well, that is a, uh--That’s an exciting thing. Not unionzization. U--Unionization. But riding around on your horse.
  D: *laughs*

• [20:04] Dan and Phil get into a dispute over math. This was cute, but a lot of it is cut off in the recording.
• [21:10] Dan and Phil react to Harry Styles’s Elton John costume.
  Harry Styles (2018):
  
  
  Elton John (1975):
  
• [24:39] Like Phil, Dan recently went to the dentist, and he went to the same one as Phil. Did they have back-to-back appointments? The world may never know.
• [25:00] Phil has to get his wisdom tooth removed. I feel bad for him, but I’m definitely also looking forward to some pictures of a chipmunk-faced Phil.
• [26:38] All this time, I thought TBC stood for “to be continued” because that was the first thing that popped up when I first Googled it. Now, I find out (because Dan started to say it) that TBC is actually a somewhat common British initialism for "to be confirmed." This makes so much more sense! Phil also says that things are looking more “C” right now.
• [27:30] Phil says, “Don’t sext and drive,” and he tells Dan that that was what Dan had said in the gaming video earlier this week. Dan looks like he doesn’t believe Phil. At all. But then it all comes rushing back.
