Dan & Phil Part 11: Kinda queer and terrible #ComeTogether

[bee]

I mean, I know stage/tour life can end up being a bit "get up, food, zone out, go to theatre, perform, hotel/travel, bed, repeat x-amount of times a week" but... I don't want that to be their experience of it.
Plus I already have plenty of people who feel the urge to tell me what they've eaten on any particular day, (occupational hazard!) so my patience wears thin...

*has a vivid image of Phil being exhausted and on automatic with the tour*
Phil looking at his food. Wishing it was breakfast. But it's not. It almost never is.
Sometimes he looks at Dan on stage and imagines him to be food.
At night he looks up video's of people just pouring more breakfast. And eating it. Since he can't then. He lulls himself to sleep dreaming himself in a room with only breakfast foods, endless supplies.
In the morning he finishes eating breakfast and is sad afterwards it's now not breakfast anymore.
It's lunch. He has something breakfasty again. He looks at his phone. He tweets about breakfast foods. He smiles a brittle smile.

MAYBE he did smack his head falling at Playlist and this is all just some bizarre concussion-dream...!!

OR he is already cyborg, and has an extended breakfast feature (yes the word breakfast has indeed now lost all meaning)

top of the page, argh, anyway I'll stop now..

He did mention buying the shoes and I think even the Yeezy t-shirt on eBay, but I really wouldn't be surprised if he bought the potato sack full price and just didn't want to admit it.

The main Yeezus t-shirt he wears is from a fan, if that's the one you mean? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCGmKjA2ntI at 3:55) I kinda feel like a nerd for remembering that. He may have almost lived up to his promise to wear it every day.

I don't really think it's a problem if he did buy all of it though. I'd like to think he's smart enough to plan for the future and keep some savings, but he's surely got plenty of extra to go around, might as well spend it on something he enjoys. You can't take it with you.

From the "potato sack" at playlist, I got the impression that he likes how it looks, especially with the longer sleeves, because he was acting so freaking adorable in it, like maybe he had more confidence wearing it. Could be my imagination though.

They're bogarting the Undertale. C'mon. GIMMEH!!!!

I've the feeling that we're getting Undertale tonight or tomorrow...fingers crossed!

I mean it's not wrong for him to spend his money in expensive designer clothes. Like it's his money and he has enough to spare for things like this, so you do you Dan. And he's adorable in them (sweater paws are my biggest weakness ) so we can't really complain either but I think the whole situation with getting free Yeezy merch twice is a little bit far stretched

Regarding Phil's tweets, I feel he's always been more 'brand' conscious than Dan

Yeah, he always seems to be more careful with what he posts and how he posts it compared to Dan. But again, I feel like their tweet styles are so different that you can't really compare them.

Nope we were talking about the yeezy that Kanye designed as few trendy post apocalyptic hobo fashion, which carries a variety of clothing items that inspired by real life artistry, such as humble potato sacks, basics you can buy in the same exact style in target for 1/10 of the price, or the dirty bodycon that the little girl from Sia music videos wears.

I don't care if he wears expensive clothings, in fact i am happy for him for being so young yet financially successful enough to afford expensive clothings. But supporting Kanye is quite a different story. I hope he wake up soon and burn the top in his backyard beside the koi pond.

after an... interesting day at work it was a relief to see phil's on brand, boring, dongless tweet. soothing, almost. at least it wasnt about an animal. breakfast tweets > animal tweets

[karma_yeah]

karma_yeah I tend to be phan agnostic and often roll my eyes at things people assume are non-platonic in their behaviour (and then I usually don't join the discussion because I don't want to accidentally insult the believers) but this... This actually got me. It's so beautifully gentle. Either it was a deeply affectionate gesture or Dan is one of those rare people who is just naturally very soft spoken and incredibly gentle with others. From what I've seen of him, I'm willing to bet more on the first option.

And the cheeky grin, he looks like he just said/did something that he shouldn't.

Thanks for your well-phrased response hunnyftw (I've enjoyed your posts!), I think "deeply affectionate" characterizes it quite well. It is a sweet, gentle touch.

And I agree with Akui. I thought it looked like Dan realized he'd just made a mistake. I watched it several times looking for a reaction from Phil, but he doesn't react immediately. Dan says something (and darn it, I can't read lips) and then Phil gets a little grin on his face at the end but his face is hidden behind the microphone.

I believe they are together, well 99% of the time, so I wouldn't say I'm a "shipper", but I've honestly never seen that gesture between platonic friends (and I've lived a long time). When I saw it I thought maybe they had come out and I missed something.

I expected it to stir up the usually phan proof vs anti-phan discussion, but didn't see much about it, even on the site that shall not be named. It's very brief and certainly not "phan proof", but it always stuck with me and I thought I'd run it by y'all since things are kind of slow (other than breakfast-gate) seriously Phil, time to drop the breakfast tweets.

Conspiracy Theory: It's actually Phil who's on IDB and he's trolling us.

[swofro]

This is soo cute! I wanna hug my toast too.

Oh wow. Good find! I was referencing that t-shirt but for whatever reason I had a memory of him saying in a live show that he got it on eBay or something because Kanye didn't sell his tour merch online. (God knows, I don't pay any attention to Kanye so forgive me if this is all wrong.) Am I alone in remembering this? Like he went out of his way to get a tour t-shirt for a tour he didn't go to? I feel like this might of been him explaining why he and Phil were selling tour merch online.

.....or maybe I'm crazy and imagining all of this.

ETA: I also wanted to note that I find it interesting nobody brought up that D&P basically confirmed their unpreparedness in the LS. They had yet to film the next DAPG or DINOF vid. So basically the Louise vids, Sims, and Agar.io were all they started the tour with. I'm not necessarily complaining, considering they've confirmed they're filming. But what if internet speeds are completely shit? What if they find no time? 1/3 into a tour with no prepared videos was a ~risky click~

[daichii]

anything interesting happening to them rn is being reserved either for youtube (i wish) or the documentary
even in the ls they didn't give us anything new tbh

re: dan's kanye clothes, might be one of his rich fans gave the sweater to him? people spend hundreds in younow, following them on tour, etc
so I wouldn't be that surprised if it's that kind of gift.

i also remember this. we can't be imagining the very exact thing so i'm confused right now

slightly late but i want to say that i loved dan's live tweets of eurovision last night (also great thread name ) but i feel like some of them have not been underlined enough, like this gem that makes my heart go (also, scared AND aroused dan?! kinky )

i mean compare all those eurovision tweets to phil's boring breakfast tweets

edit to comment on rizzo's edit:

i had my suspicions on how much they filmed before they started the tour and they basically confirmed my suspicions that they have not filmed much. i thought they had at least filmed an undertale so ngl, i was surprised to hear that they were gonna film that in the hotel after the LS so yeah, slightly risky indeed

editedit: my 100th post and now i'm a living flop, sums up my life so well!

Don't give him any ideas. Tomorrow he'll tweet about a squirrel trying to steal his pancake, or something.

I have a vague memory of him saying that he tried to find the yeezy merch online but couldn't, the shirt he has is a gift from a fan...so from that experience he wanted to make the merch avaible to people. (should be in one of the ls around the tour period)

Also not the least surprised about them not recording enough material in advance , a bit dissapointed, but also during the UK tour some of the videos were filmed during the tour and not before.

He's kinda already covered the animal AND breakfast category

Shame really, I imagine a squirrel trying to steal his pancakes would find itself in a fight to the death. Funny how so many of Phil's favourite foods are breakfast foods (cereal, pancakes, waffles and toast.)

we are too spoiled now, a few months ago a tweet like this would have gotten much more appreciation, 2016 is being too good to us

but yes dan by all means don't stop w the mildly kinky tweets

Everything about this post just made me crack up whilst on an especially quiet flight.

Where's our local phandom talent to build a Phil Tweet Generator? Pull the lever and it'll combine a few food items and animal comparisons, saving Phil precious minutes he could use to edit.

Maybe its b/c most of us just accept that he's kind of out already. I personally like being more low key about these things rather than going 'Yas!! Male attraction!!' every time Dan makes a sexual comment. For some reason i feel a bit uncomfortable w/ that. Also, swear that Dan has described himself as being 'aroused' by tons of things, a lot of them ridiculous.

tldr: It's a good tweet, but I don't see any need to make a big deal out of it.

Ha ha ha. I legit just thought the same thing (well, that it said legs at least ). That boy & his handwriting.

What would an honest list from them even look like?

Things that make Dan happy:
1. Not having to hug strangers.
2. Being held to no rigid schedule for sleep, work, or recreation.
3. Casually being more successful than youtubers he feels morally superior to.

Things that make Phil happy:
1. Yanking voldy reuploads.
2. Accidentally ruining select clothing items of Dan's in the wash.
3. Casually being way-the-fuck-richer than everyone that mocked him in his early youtube comments.

[offtopic](but sorta related to the breakfast conversation)

Now, they are about to go to North Carolina. If he wants to tweet about some sausage and grits...some warm southern biscuits fresh out of the oven...some farm fresh eggs...even the different coffee he's drinking on the road...I'm here for that Somehow I don't think that's how it's gonna go down though. He'll be right back to tweeting about iHop or Applebee's and how he's eating sugar on sugar with sugar sauce smh.
