This video was fun! I’ve watched almost none of Dan and Phil’s videos that were uploaded prior to 2014, so this was all new to me! Here are my timestamps:
  • [0:00] Phil explains the format of the video. He’s going to be asked a series of questions that he’s going to answer as they relate to the present. Then, he’s going to be shown a clip of him answering the same question in one of his past videos.
  • [0:22] Question: What are things you need to use now that you’re an adult? Present response: His dad once got him a drill, and he has never used it. Past response: Now that he’s a “real man,” he needs to use things like bleach, a spaghetti spoon, and an iron. Phil comments that he ironed the T-shirt he’s wearing this morning, so he’s learned how to do that.
  • [0:53] Question: How do you catch up with your childhood? Present response: He’d watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Past response: He needs to eat a bunch of Pop-Tarts.
  • [1:13] Question: What is the scariest thing ever? Present response: He thinks it’s either the universe exploding (because he likes being alive) or a horse in the dark. Past response: He says it was performing live on stage.
  • [1:59] Question: What do you do when a noise wakes you up? Present response:
    P: It depends on the noise, but if I’m alone in the house and something wakes me up, I just freeze and probably hide under the duvet and hope it goes away. I’m not very brave.
    Past response: He becomes an instant ninja meerkat underneath the covers.
  • [2:28] Question: What is something you always wanted to be? Present response: He always wanted to be a weatherman. Past response: He always wanted to be a robot. In response to the clip, Phil also comments:
    P: Wow, that hair is something else! Isn’t it in that one?
  • [2:54] Question: What is addictive? Present response: He thinks it’s playing video games. Past response: He thinks it’s playing video games.
  • [3:27] Question: What do you think of Apple? Present response: He likes it. Past response: He was confused by how to use video editing software in Apple.
  • [4:15] Question: What do you want to do to Americans? Present response: He wants to give them a hug. Past response: He wants to give them a hug. :bighug:
  • [4:38] Question: What did you get your mum for Mother’s Day? Present response: He drew her a token that was good for one afternoon tea/dinner with him. Past response: He got her a stuffed animal monkey in a cage.
  • [5:09] Question: What are your rules if you ruled the internet? Present response: He would make the internet super fast everywhere, as it’s slow where he lives. Past response: He’d call it the Philternet, the interlion, or the Philterlion.
