Dan & Phil Part 66: Rainbow Nerds

starwatersong · Sat Mar 03, 2018 4:54 am

This isn’t a new video, but I just stumbled upon it via some tumblr links. Since it only has about 500 views, I figured a lot of people maybe hadn’t seen it. It’s got some good Dan and some cute Dodie moments in it.

Edit: top of the page? Yikes!

That video was so cute @starwatersong!

Had to lol @ Dan’s sarcastic “Thanks, I desperately need the plug.” What a dork.

Dodie seems like a massive sweetheart as well.

Just to add on to the notification discussion, I just got an email about the Fortnite video

For reference, it's about 8 a.m. on Saturday where I am...they uploaded on Thursday evening

Now, did Phil liked it on twitter because it's got his picture on it or because they incorrectly identified him as Dan...

Where do They identify him as Dan? It was Dan who posted the video, so having his @ makes sense? Though all the comments are saying «his name is PHIL», so I might be missing something?

The caption for the full tweet on twitter (which the preview doesn't show) says, "And @danielhowell gets a snowball to the face." - it was Phil that got one to the face! Dan just threw it.

I don't think Phil especially minds being confused with Dan. He's probably used to it by now and considering he and Dan get along well (understatement of the century) I'm sure he takes it as a compliment.

New Dan!!

onceinaugust · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:20 pm

Laughter, food, and sex huh?

Also is Phil about to get lucky?

snokoplasmic · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:20 pm

I love Dan soooo so much

but i really didn't need to know about his oral fixation

lilabet · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:20 pm

Well that was a video and a half. I need to rewatch that but first impressions: funny and another kick in the arse to do something with my life. Things going in and out of his mouth haha.

parallel · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:21 pm

Holy fucking shit. My first thought was "wow, Dan's being very open" and then he... he made the goddamn things in his mouth joke. Jesus Christ. I mean, you do you Danny, but do we need to be told these things?

lost686girl · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:22 pm

well. that was super gay.

Shibi · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:22 pm

Ohh that video was great, so worth the wait! Tied in quite well with the few personal glimpses of himself that he gave us this year. Also spoke to me a lot on a personal level because the whole personal truth and happiness thing has been a big issue for me in the past years and I've just talked about it with my therapist. I feel like I basically don't even know who I truly am and what I actually want / makes me happy anymore... So it felt good to hear I'm not the only one struggling with this (which I obviously knew before, but hearing it out of someones mouth makes it more real).

Also that "basically things coming in and out of my mouth" part got me shook

Could anyone decipher what the board in the background said?

zazzed · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:22 pm

Wow. Correct me if I’m mistaken, but that has to be the most explicit implication of male attraction we’ve ever got lmao

fancybum · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:23 pm

ok wow that vid was too real for me and I don't want to talk about it lmao but good job it'll keep everybody off his back for another month or two :thanks:

hoo wow um that was a lot

I'll have more coherent thoughts after I've watched it again and digested it more but it's good knowing laughter, food, and sex make Dan happy.

I think it said "let me live," but I'd need to take a second look to be 100% sure

ratlad · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:24 pm

i.... did dan confirm something or am i imagining.......
is...
did he...

ratlad · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:26 pm

i called it y'all i knew it was gonna be a vid about self reflection

Kathrynxjane · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:27 pm

Well I am shook. I am sorry but unless Dan has a non disclosure agreement with random strangers that he is having sex with, he can only be talking about Phil.

No clue what else he was talking about after that but that is all I can think about.

Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:27 pm

I'm gonna be really interested to see how people unpack this video. I think I want to refrain from saying how I feel until I've watched it back a couple times.

But I will comment on the obvious: Dan definitely wanted to make sure that we know he's got a sex life and that it involves a dick in his mouth.

LtrllySusan · Sat Mar 03, 2018 9:29 pm

Umm well... I am not quite sure what to think if this?

It was very vague and honestly felt more like a video that Dan made for himself than for other people. He spoke in the form of "you should", but it felt more like a "I want to". Does he find happiness by making a video about finding happiness? By not-so-subtly dropping sexuality hints or even phan hints? Can he even find happiness with that whole phan mystery being a constant elephant in the room?
