edit: oh dear why is this the first post on a new page
Yeah it's unfortunate, I think this vid could have been done right and it was cool that they got to react to something more important than bloody DHMIS, but the Fine Bros kind of missed the mark. Some comments made by YTers made me a bit uncomfortable, especially Swoozie (I think?) saying something about how he shows vids like this to his friends to make them feel better about their lives/work harder or whatever it wasspaceguitar wrote:Also this is an interesting perspective on the YTR video.

the vid was ok for exposure to the girl's channel and awareness about autism but it really had something off putting abt it
I agree that they did find out about this before us, but also remember they aren't money-greedy manipulative thievesdaichii wrote: they are really nice but I can't help feeling like the bit where phil said that he'll ask younow to make a package deal for him and dan is just a really clever way to sell this to the phandom in advance. Perhaps I'm being too cynical but I can't really buy that he just find out about this new change
. I'm annoyed that they're probably staying on younow, but (I don't think) that the money younow makes from that goes to them. Who knows. YES, thank you! I didn't want to bring this up as a non-autistic person I wouldn't be able to word it very well, but I actually couldn't even watch the whole video because of some of the youtubers. I was ready for some ableist undertones the moment I saw what the title(clenched my buttcheeks etc) but the shit some of the guys said was just so dehumanizing.. maybe I spend too much time on tumblr but I was shocked by all the "Haha at least your life is not as shitty as hers so be happy/Oooh they're just like us "normal people"/What an inspiration!1/Wow she's autistic but a better comedian than me lololol", what the actual fuck.spaceguitar wrote:Also this is an interesting perspective on the YTR video.

There were VIP tickets still available at 12pm but are now sold out in Melbourne. They look like they sell out after one minute but tickets do get put back in the system because people run out of time or decide they don't want them. But VIP tickets were $200 each and that is so much money. I have no idea how teenagers and children afford these tickets. I love Dan and Phil but I can't justify $200 to meet them just to say an awkward hello and get a photo. But that's just me.mysterylovescompany wrote:I did almost the same thing, lol (and got the same results ofc).

i refreshed the page for normal tickets and orchestra popped up, then refreshed again after 20 sec out of curiosity and the best available were lounge seats. tour's going well, guys!
Those are all great examples of Phil being really kind, thanks for the listhunnyftw wrote:

I was wondering how it would all fit, too. Because I didn't get VIP either (same reasons as you), but there were deffo VIP tickets on sale for the Melb evening show. They sold out almost immediately.

I wanted the cheapest tickets (bc I am a very broke uni student) and I got offered tickets in the lounge in row F but if you search right now you can still buy tickets for the row in front of me. It's really just the luck of the draw. I didn't want to risk losing my decent seats by searching for different ones. There's also still tickets available in the orchestra in Melb.
Is there VIP for the Melbourne evening show? Because the afternoon show starts at 4:30 which doesn't leave a huge amount of time between the two shows to run VIP meet and greets.

Entry into the VIP Area begins at 4pm. It is a dedicated room within the theatre set up by Dan and Phil complete with snacks, beanbag seats and a special music playlist! Dan and Phil come to say hi to the VIP guests and then meet everyone individually. Each guest can have one item signed and one selfie or regular photo with Dan and Phil. Every VIP also receives an exclusive tote bag containing customized VIP tour merchandise (not for sale anywhere) and other surprises! There is also a guest book to sign that Dan and Phil will take home. VIP will run until 6:30pm.

Deppy were kinda okay, thank G-d, but the reactions from some of the fans on twitter/tumblr, chill and stop praising them for being just decent people it should be an expected behavior not the reason to lay a path of rose petals everywhere they go. I get it, you're glad they're not assholes, I mean I'm glad too, I hold my breath every time my problematic-sense starts tingling but they are not some bright precious brave social justice heroes for not saying sick horrible things.
I also feel the same. It's not like they were ever going to say something terrible because it's a lovely story. I found the sort of pity sighs from people like Dodie a bit condescending though.eevee wrote:Exactly how I feel!

Yes, last upload was a MONTH ago. I would have thought AmazingPhil and danisnotonfire would be the first two to be uploaded to, but instead we've had two gaming channel videos and then one AmazingPhil vid - surely DINOF is next.vincentian wrote:Hopefully we're getting a new video on dinof soon.
There was a lot of sympathy and holding her up as a 'role model' for other people with autism/disabilities when there shouldn't be any pressure on people with disabilities to do things their impairment prevents them from doing - they should be supported to do things can and want to do not pushed into doing things they don't feel able to. I can't articulate what I mean very well, but I hope this came across right.I was rewatching old liveshows yesterday and I really was struck by the change in attitude.

to the forum! Nice to meet you!That's not really phan goggles if you ask me, that's Dan being blatantly more comfortable with the relationship (whether it be platonic or not) and himself, he just seems so confident and happy right now, especially compared to those dark ages a few years ago, and it really really makes me happy. He's really come a long way. I can just tell that he's not hurting about phan and it's like a breath of fresh air. he's gotten to the point where he can make comments like the threesome comment and...I could go on and on and on. Bottom line is Dan is way happier now and I am living for it.bluewho wrote:[offtopic]I was rewatching old liveshows yesterday and I really was struck by the change in attitude.

There really wasn't much discussion on it, was there? I wonder if that's just because it was extremely unambiguous. It was a joke which means no one is going to treat it like a confession or a coming out but at the same time I can't see how anyone could interpret it as anything but Dan talking about having sex with Phil and fictional male character, and the 'Phil' part wasn't the punchline.bluewho wrote: [offtopic]I was rewatching old liveshows yesterday and I really was struck by the change in attitude.Winston wrote:Although the threesome comment didn't get as much discussion as I had anticipated.

^ You articulate it better than me, but yes this is what I was getting at. I think I just put because as alittledizzy said it was a joke and not a confession of anything. But at the same time it at least shows he is comfortable joking about phan.
