Unpopular and very controversial opinion I've kept to myself all this time.... I feel like I'm the only one that sees the leaves on Dan's sweater as bamboo leaves and not weed. Though I thoroughly appreciate every joke that has come from that god forsaken article of clothing.
Also... googling the shit out of every combination of "bamboo", "sweater", "jumper", "men's", and "black" still hasn't helped me find it online...

On a side note, Dan is a hot second away from hitting 3M followers on Twitter. Do these sort of numbers matter anymore?

I'm team bamboo!

The leaf on Dan's jumper is a thin, long, smooth kind of leaf (if it is leaf), unlike weed which have serrations. And the direction the leafs grow towards are all basically downwards, just like bamboo.

It says "who knows"

Nah, fans have bullied him about the sweater and the read eyes on every social media

And about if it's actually a weed sweater: I think the joke's that we all know it's not weed but it looks like it if you don't know anything about drugs.

Honestly, purple might be Phil's best color—he looks so good here:

I also read his atrocious writing as "who knows"
Yeah not an idb exclusive. Literally all of twitter and tumblr were joking about it

Unpopular opinion:i am probably the only person that isnt surprised every time they(especially dan) acknowledge a phandom joke/trend. I dont get the "omg he is lurking, he is stalking us" comments on twitter. Of cource he/they know, they are not cavemen and actually have access on the internet. Whats the big deal? When there are literally thousands tweets and posts talking about it, it would be weird if they didnt notice. I am more surprised when they dont know these things(like dan when he asked the phandom about his meme video on twitter, some of his replies were :sideeye: ) or what they decide to ignore

Actually when dan is "joining in" like today, he is kind of ruining it for me. I mean it was funny and surprising with the #phanbabynames three years ago because it was a first. Now the only thing he does is reharsing these phandoms jokes and i am like "Ugh leave us alone, get your own jokes" (i mean he does it so much his twitter looks like a phan account, even his jokes in videos..). Same with the "domestic". It was nice and cute, up until the point dan started his constant #domestic comments and making it a part of his "brand" and even putting it in tatinof.

I've never noticed him at anything before but he is carrying a camera and was on the bus so maybe he's filming their sex tape some kind of tour video. He walked onto their bus so that's an extra person on their bus that we didn't know about. Yay #busgate.

Also, Dans tweets overnight were so funny! I like that he wants to join in on the joke.

And Phil in the purple tshirt, all I have to say is HELLO NIPPLES.

It might be Dil. He looks the same height and was also wearing nikes in the show(don't ask me how I remember this stuff.) I found it cringey that people camped outside their bus to see them. I was in Sacramento all day but thought that waiting outside their private bus was crossing the line. (though it migh have helped #busgate)

Anyway I LOVED THE SHOW!! I wrote a fairly detailed/trash post if anyone is interested! I missed so much on twiiter today! I love Dan acknowledging the high tweets and Phil is so precious that the first thing he does after tripping is give a thumbs up

this guy? 'martin the photographer' apaz

edit: still convinced they're doing something more than the tour doco/ditl bc of this guy + all the deppy/vip selfies dan's been taking + all the people who've had their picture taken by dan bc of their deppy themed finger-nails and/or other customised merch (netflix and phil tshirt etc - a few people have tweeted about this happening to them) + dan took photos of the dog in deppy merch etc - doesn't seem, to me, to be video compatible unless it's a weird and very long picture montage

So this is strange...

I just checked the tickets still available for the Hollywood Matinee show and suddenly every single seat in the upper mezzanine is booked up.
Still tons and tons of close seats, but the upper most floor? None.
What are they up to? Filming crew set up? VIP section for all their Youtuber BFFs?

Also the info on the venue website now says both shows will be "filmed for television"

For their last London Show, basically the whole of the upper sections was for their UK friends. ("friends")
It wouldn't surprise me if they are not booked out for friends or important people in the US.

They are also probably the cheapest tickets so probably would be sold out first anyway.

Definitely not. The pit and orchestra is really the only part tickets have sold in. When I looked this morning, the entire upper mezzanine section was available, save for a cluster in the front that Vividseats has for sale.
This seems like a deliberate action to block out that section.

Maybe Martin the Photographer is Phil's boyfriend and they spend holiday together.


And i hate Dan's handwriting, like wtf Dan, i have really awful handwrting too, so i tried to write with my right hand and in mirror reflection, you know, i am right handed, so i put myself in his situation and i could decode things i wrote easily, so WHAT THE HELL DAN
Also, this is the time i should study to my exams, don't mind me. :lol:

I don't mind Dan joking about the phandom happenings. I think it shows that he's in tune with his fandom and looks at what we/they do for him. It gives me hope that he sees fanart and stuff. I don't personally draw fanart but I want those artists who try hard to get recognized by them. So overall I like that they "lurk"

on the topic of them lurking, I don't think the weed thing is a dead giveaway, however he did post the bloopers of the insta pic after I suggested it 8-)

I'm left-handed and my writing is similar to Dan It is more of laziness where you could not bother to lift the pen once it touches the paper and just drag the pen across so the letters just joint all the way, and just ignore the dots in i :lol:

Maybe he does it on purpose. Some hardcore Phan-shippers might even go as far, as to assume he's hiding Phan clues in his writing. Or may I propose Dan not really being left-handed and only pretending as another conspiracy theory? *sigh* well more likely than some other stuff on here..

@weed jumper discussion: I never really saw them as weed leaves either, but I figured what the hell do I know.. I also like it, but it seems like I'm one of the very few

That video with fans screaming YOU LOOK SO REAL after them is very cringey indeed, but 100% what I was thinking when they entered the stage on my Tatinof show - they looked almost SURREAL. Like obviously I knew they were real, but that didn't stop the feeling of how goddamn weird it was to actually see them in real life, and that strange disconnect where they seemed somehow different to what they do on cam (so much less straight, lmao) and it totally did make me want to go "omg ur real".

I'm low-key happy Deppy aren't doing anything at the moment that takes time to keep up with, cuz I'm busy busy busy. :geek: I dedicate this post to kuensukki.
