I hope we get at least one more liveshow before the end of tour. I think they have more frequent days off in June then they did last month so hopefully they'll manage at least that much.

If you're not easily satisfied then celeb meet and greets are probably not for you.

apparently, yep. but i know when i've met people in situations similar to that, it takes a day or two before you calm down and realise 'actually, that was nice but really not as amazing as i thought'. hype and excitement kind of covers any realisation that the meeting is brief and one of many, identical meetings to happen in that timeframe, even if it was still enjoyable. id assume people ask because they want a better answer, but dont really care when the reality happens
''I love house plants.'' ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Do you, Phil? Do you love them in a P-L-A-T-O-N-I-C way? (I'm going to stop now, sorry.)

I also blame it on the fact that some of Deppy's younger audience probably think that their personas are their real personalities.

Speaking of personas(I really hate that word at this point, but sadly there is no good synonym for it,) does anyone else think it's interesting just how tightly controlled their personas are even compared to other YouTubers with a large audience/easily excitable fandom? I also follow Zoella and Tyler Oakley's media presence to some extent, and both of them still manage to tweet things or answer fan questions that make them sound like human beings sometimes. Not everything from Zoella is ''sweet and bubbly'' and even Tyler isn't the stereotypical sassy gay friend all the time.

Nah, he likes them in a P-L-A-N-T-O-N-I-C way, that is the truth I live by.

I'll let myself out.

But who the fuck am I kidding? I'm mostly just the rotting banana peel at the bottom of the phan trash can who genuinely gets excited over the thought of them snuggling in bed. Idgaf let a bitch live

This is my thought as well. D+P are super-hyper-controlled in that way, and moreso lately. It might be from pure laziness that they pick their "go-to" answers, but it probably has more to do with deliberately making sure they don't step out of their comfort zones.

We can do it guys, more than halfway done with the tour! And it will end with a bang of content from Vidcon.

Nonny....just take your stupid plant puns and LEAF
... im sorry

Why do I feel the need to use so many memes?

[offtopic]When Eurovision happened, we talked a bit about making an IDB chatroom for casual bants. Should we continue working with the idea? [/offtopic]

Maybe this should be our next thread's title. Imo it's kind of ten times better than anything Deppy provide us with at the moment... :lol:

I don't want to be rude to people who are waiting to meet them soon but I also kinda dislike it. Ugh. I wish we have a liveshow soon. Or a 30 second clip of them eating American food or maybe even a tweet about how Dan miss his haru pillow (so we can have aomething controversial to discuss / inspiring some fanarts)

I think the best thing happen recently is just danandphilbodyguards (on instagram) mod met Drake and he kinda approved the instagram account. :D

Seriously, what scares me the most is that the general boredom of it all managed to put me off contributing on IDB. I just have absolutely nothing to say, write, almost no opinions whatsoever because nothing is happening. I'm a crusty sponge. The bants are still on point though, that's why I'm still lurking

Also, swofro , I don't think that expressing our frustration is rude to the people who attended or will attend the tour. They have their thing to get excited for and good for them. On the other hand, the rest of us can apparently rot away for all that care, so it's only natural that we're getting impatient
