Maybe Dan thought this game literally aged him 6 months and felt justified in thinking he's 26 lol

I forget my age all the time now. The only reason I know it for sure this year is because I have a big depressing birthday coming up. Because I was so aware of it though I spent all of last year up until my birthday thinking I was a year older than I was and then after it I thought I was a year younger as my husband is 4 months younger than me but I think of us as being the same age.
TL:DR birthdays are harder the older you get and if someone you are very close to has just had a birthday it can be very confusing.

Most likely. Also, I'm from Surrey (near London) and I never round my age nor have I met anyone who does? I think that quiz just gave Dan a few mental issues haha.gnostic wrote:The video being filmed in the future and uploaded via time machine #confirmed. That's the trick to their newfound productivity, finally revealed!
Anyway, honestly, no humour could save TIZ. I'm so done with it. Sorry to be a cynic, but I'm utterly sick of TIZ and the only thing good about this video was that it brought the end of the series. I thought it was Crossy Road as well from the tweet But oh well, I don't like Crossy Road that much either.

After having watched the video like 6 times tonight, the section between 8:30 and 8:50 is very interesting to me.
Dan goes on a rant (& gets way over the top) with Phil telling him to be quiet because the neighbours will call the police. This then leads into a jumpcut where (imo) it looks like Phil is trying to reason with Dan/trying to calm him down (basically trying to get a word in whilst Dan just carries on ranting) and at the end Dan tells him to move away and Phil pulls the best face. It just opens my eyes to how they interact with each other and this section shows me a new side to them. I really enjoyed rewatching that bit, I love a bit of whiney Dan.
I thought my post would be best if I added some photos.
1. the first bit of my post (the shushing and reasoning):
2. The move over and phil's look at being told to move
Sorry if they're massive images I'm on my phone!

Is it just me or is posting timestamps in the comments disabled for that video? (the comment won't show up)
eta: if it is disabled could it be to prevent people from watching just certain moments(like the hear eyes moment blabla) and watch the whole thing?

I postulated "New York" because some of my friends from up that way might pronounce Aaron in the way you describe; "posh" was just having a bit of fun.LeftHandedism wrote:[offtopic]Neither! But maybe I'm Lin-Manuel Miranda :uglyamerican wrote:Either you're posh or from New York I should add that a boy I grew up with name was Aaron, and he pronounced it as I described.

From the Wikipedia rabbit hole / alternate facts depository:
"The English pronunciation of the biblical Aaron's name was derived by anglicising the Latin during the Church of England's translation of the Authorized King James Bible in 1611 (possibly influenced by older English translations of the bible from Anglo Saxon times onwards). The modern Church of England Pronunciation Guide, the BBC pronunciation guide,[6] the Mormon pronunciation guide,[7] the Oxford English Dictionary,[8] the Longman pronunciation guide,[9] and Harper Collins Biblical Pronunciation Guide[10] all define this modern English pronunciation as /ɛərən/ ("air-run", where "air" is the same sound as in "dairy"). This pronunciation is used in the 1956 film The Ten Commandments featuring the biblical Aaron, by UK chief rabbi Jonathan Sacks when speaking in English,[11] and in the BBC production of Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus.[12]"
can't believe their own friends are using them for views. the shamepapierklemmen wrote:i like one of the suggestions from the counterphan blog (although i never checked its validity myself i.e. checking the tweets, but i'm sure it's a valid guess):rizzo wrote: Another thought I just had, not directed at you, gnostic, but anyone who may know in general. Presuming it is a prank (.... ) Did Dan and Phil end up doing an April Fool's joke on their audience in 2010? You'd think that, had they been prepping an idea for two months in advance, they were really pumped about the holiday. If the initial plan was scrapped, why not replace it with something less intense?
2. If you look at their tweets on Apr. 1st, 2010, they were both focused on winning the giffgaff competition (Dan for “How to Use a Gimp” and Phil for “Captain Stress Relief”). If they had released the video as planned, it likely would’ve had two results: one, it would have taken people’s attention away from the competition and thus from voting, and two, people might have been upset enough by being pranked to not vote (voting was open until Apr. 8). In particular, people from the LGBTQ community might not have appreciated two guys pretending to be in a same-sex relationship just for a prank. The prize for the winners was a good chunk of money, so they definitely had an incentive to not do anything that might jeopardize their chances of winning.EDIT:
marcus, piss off lol

The only consolation is that by the end Marcus seemed just as unimpressed with himself as we are with him.

I had to laugh when he was incredulously asking like "Who knows the answers to these things?"
Dude, you have noooooo idea the things the phandom knows about those two. Nooooo idea.

I don't know if it was just cathartic to see them finally win this thing or if their dynamic here helped save the series as a whole for me, but I especially loved this video (and watching them struggle not to implode from sheer frustration)

i didn;t watch the marcus video but i sort of refuse to. using the phandom for views like that...wtf?
I agree. It was clear that Marcus was using the phandom but I still thought his reactions to the questions were funny. I like Marcus so I am a bit biased but if he does have to make another video about dan and Phil then I'd like it if he eitherpilotlight wrote:I had to laugh when he was incredulously asking like "Who knows the answers to these things?"

I loved Phil in this video, especially because when Dan lost it (all those times), it was nice to see how Phil was trying to calm him down. I know Dan was probably playing it a little bit for thee camera, but I couldn't help to wonder if that how it works (in a leess dramatic version) in their own lives.
Oh gnostic that's interesting! I myself have never gone to find phan research - I've mostly just watched their videos and stayed off their tag on other social media platforms. I only just watched the infamous video this year - about six years after I first started watching them! From watching just their channel videos (not even liveshows), I kinda felt they were together during PINOF 1 and then I felt they were just friends after that. The only time I started feeling they might be together again was during the recent Dec gamingmas and their newer videos this year. And when I saw the infamous video, it cemented what I felt when I saw the early PINOFs. But then again, that was a long time ago and no one really knows what happened then or in between or even now.gnostic wrote:flurry I am always here for polite debate!
Well, to be honest i never saw anything in Dan and Phil's relationship from their videos that screamed "dating" rather than just genuine fondness. I initially believed they were dating because on my initial brief research into phandom, I was presented with mountains of evidence that made it silly to believe they were anything but a couple.
At that time one of bed sharing debates was in full steam, and it was generally assumed by the people I followed on the matter that they actually did share a bed in that particular hotel based on a bunch of circumstantial evidence gathered. I accidentally stumbled upon a blog of complete demon anti phannie person who actually procured pictures of that hotel and it was evident the room was twin bed one. None of the blogs i followd reposted it, so I wondered if other evidence might have been wrong, biased or taken out of context. What do you think, much of it was! Especially the counterphan timeline impressed me
After sufficient research the standing anti-phan evidence simply outweighed the phan evidence, by far.
Could you point me to the research that influenced you to think the way you do? Thanks!
Sorry if I'm still on the issue when everyone else might have gotten off it- I just woke up and I haven't caught up with the thread! Apologies.

I caved and watched Marcus' video, saw him get so many hopelessly wrong, then I did the quiz and got nine out of ten so to you, Marcus. But yes, views. Bad views. Oh well.
Interesting moment, missemma, Phil does look a little surprised and put out. I know how crowded Dan might have felt at that point, though, it's a stressful feeling.

true but I think he stressed on that because Phil kept playing the bongos on his arms and kept making him misclick lolflarequake wrote:I caved and watched Marcus' video, saw him get so many hopelessly wrong, then I did the quiz and got nine out of ten so to you, Marcus.

I thought I would hate the video because the last few Impossible Quiz videos made me feel frustrated and antsy but I actually laughed out loud a couple of times with this one! I thought it was hilarious the way Dan got so worked up - it is quite #relatable in some ways. And how Phil tries to stay calm and shush him and keep things chill! I liked the overall vibe of the video and I'm also so pleased they finally finished it. About time indeed.
Those matching jackets though - is it a thing now that they coordinate their clothes?? It was rather cute and also a surprise I feel.
Also is there anyone else who would like to see them play Shelter 2 together or is it just me?? I really enjoyed Phil's solo playthrough of Shelter although I realise it got few views compared to their other videos. If both of them put moose hats and played Shelter 2, it might be a lot more popular though!
