Dan & Phil Part 2: lol bye gg

[swofro]

This is making me so hard, because all I see is Dan as a secret shadow chicken.

OMG

Let's plough the chickens.

Why is this an emoticon.

Exactly what I am thinking. Let's plough the chicken
No wonder phandom can entertain themselves during content drought. There is so much (over) analysis to do. How am I ever going to catch up with IDB once I started get busy in life? Sigh. You guys are awesome.

Sleep is for the weak

[Lari]

thanks Oqua for such a detailed type up from that ls

I am in my last semester of uni, have mercy on me pls

[Kathrynxjane]

Definitely shouldn't go to sleep on this thread. Already on the second part already! Love the name BTW.

Dan's chicken secret is now out!! He has been keeping this one a secret really well until now.

one of the things i'm most looking forward to is to trying to figure out the bus layout, are they gonna sleep in the bunk beds or use the back room as a bedroom? the bunk beds would be the closet appropriate option, but those look very uncomfortable, especially for gigantic humans like them

This is going to be the best part. I really hope they do a tour bus tour! I can't see them fitting into one of those tiny little bunk beds that are always on tour buses. If there is a double bed, I can't wait for them to explain that one.

[swofro]

Maybe they will show that they have twin beds in vlogs (if there is a tour bus tour), but when nobody is filming, they will push the bed together to make a double bed.

I can't WAIT if they use the back room as a bedroom to hear people say "GUYS they are platonically sleeping in a bed together. It's just because they are too tall to fit into the bunk beds. It doesn't mean aaaanything. It's just bro's sharing a bed. God stop making everything about phan."

(my response: )

[akui]

I think it's perfectly normal for two bff to share a double bed when travelling, but it's not normal for two bbf to share a double bed when travelling and GO LENGTH TO HIDE IT.

[mintsans]

i just can't wait to hear straight from the horse's mouth how much FUN dan will be having being 24/7 around a perpetually carsick phil

do stage show people get to have a rider for their dressing room? what would be in theirs??

A few question out of pure curiosity....(who am I kidding?)


Do you think Martyn and Cornelia are going on tour with them??
And are they going to share the tour bus with other people, or are they going to be spoiled having the bus all to themselves?

asking this cos going to many concerts and waiting outside for the artists, I've seen quite popular bands sharing the bus with their tour crew.

[Anonymousse]

Was asleep - 5 new pages, woot.

this one! starting at around 8:27 I put it under a read more because the whole post felt a little long

Wow, I relate to this - even having a lot of friends I usually just end up talking to one/myself at some corner of the party.

Where can I up-vote and can I do it 100 times?

I love the new name

[DryCereal]

Bus prediction. We will be shown bunks "where we sleep, that's mine, that's mine [insert joke about height/comfort/falling out of tiny beds/lion/bear]"
And a shut door in the background, forever Haru'd.

[kooshka]

Uh, question...: have they talked about the duvets much? Like if they have multiple copies or something? I know someone asked Phil in a liveshow about his but he was just like "oh I wash them they're not dirty" but man ofc it's going to get dirty and worn out if you don't rotate them Have they ever been seen with different ones? This is bothering me more than it should I know but it kinda makes me gag thinking how old the duvets are.

[Cora]

D&P appear to be producing the whole tour themselves, and from what I can tell basically financing the whole thing too. That means the likelihood of having multiple buses is very low.
I've been on many a tour bus. On one tour, I was sharing a bus with 10 other people. It's fun for the first 2 days, but it gets pretty miserable after that. Smells collect, clutter accumulates, and the walls start closing in. And you can't poop on the bus, either.
The amount of dates over a fairly short amount of time means they won't have a ton of opportunities to stay in hotel rooms to relieve the stress of being around other people so much, which will not bode well for their need to isolate themselves.
This is going to be a very, very interesting test of their psyche.

They've never mentioned pillows/duvets, only the covers/sheets which get washed regularly. We saw Phil's once at the beginning of a video, they seemed clean/new-ish looking, so I assume they replace them regularly enough.

Didn't someone look into it and find out that the place they got it (Ikea?) discontinued them? I thought I remembered reading that somewhere...

[mez29]

oqua that is really interesting, thank you! Rambly responses below

17:00 - “Someone said, ‘So, gay marriage is legal’ — Yeahhhhh! Go House of Commons! Whoo! That’s the advantage of the UK legal system: the House of Commons can use the ~power of democracy~ to keep the old farts in the House of Lords from having opinions that stick. No one understood what I just said. Anyway—”

I love how Dan is secretly political. He follows a few political twitter accounts and sometimes he says something very brief about UK politics, but then moves on quickly as I guess most of his subscribers aren't concerned/interested by it. It's a shame though, I want to hear more politics with Dan.

25:49 - “Why do we never see your family in your videos?” - “’Cause it’s called privacy.....I'm JOKING haha!” [sure you are, dan, sure you are]

I find it kind of weird that he has to say he's joking here … wouldn't it be ok to genuinely, seriously say he didn't want his family involved with his videos? Particularly as it's pretty obvious he's not actually joking. I get that people expect to know about his own personal life, because that's what happens when you're a YouTuber, but I think it should be perfectly ok for him not to want people to have any expectations from his family.

Trigger warning: discussion of weight
42:50 - “Someone said ‘you’re so chubby’ — I’m not chubby! Look at my fricking arms, I’m like a — I’ve actually lost weight! It’s quite funny, (laughs) some lovely person on Tumblr posted a video that I uploaded like last October where you can see like a fat crease when I sit up and it’s like great! Thanks! Thanks for turning that into a slow-motion gif! But, uh, yeah. So I have people on Tumblr going, ‘ah, Dan’s a bit chubby’ and then I have people on my James Bond Radio 1 video going, ‘God Dan, you need to gain some weight, you’re too thin!’ and I’m like ‘Aw great, I’m like fricking Britney Spears!’” [At first I assumed he meant the person who made the gif on Tumblr was somehow poking fun at his weight, but then when I thought about it I realized it was ambiguous and he might just mean that he saw a gif of himself and thought he looked fat in it. Idk. :/]

I hope he doesn't still feel this way. I think he's grown into his body shape really well. 2015/6 Dan is very well shaped.

46:56 - “All I wear is black. My wardrobe is basically like a funeral slid into a tar pit, and then a couple bright t-shirts which everyone hates ‘cause they’re too interesting. Basically.” [since when does/did everyone hate his colorful t-shirts?]

I get the impression he dresses colourfully more often now. Hopefully it's a sign that he's happier about his life/his body.

[lollll, I can see it now: "fyi i like boob"]

1:00:08 - “‘Dan shut up, you’re rambling,’ and I have other people going ‘I love how insightful you are!’ (laughs) The two sides of Dan’s YouNow chat: ‘Dan shut up no one cares’ / ‘Talk more please!’ (laughs)”

Ugh it was a bit like that on the most recent ls: Dan gets asked something about anime, he starts talking about it in a way that shows he's really interested, but the comments all move on to something else, as if nobody's listening and they want him to talk about something #relatable instead. idk it just makes me uncomfortable, when he actually starts talking about stuff he's passionate about the viewers can't relate so the conversation never gets anywhere, in either direction.

1:02:36 - “This has been very fun. As always. As always. It’s been good talking to you. I am very happy and grateful that I’ve hit a million subscribers. And obviously I love all of you. Whatever way you want me to love you. That’s up to you to decide. (laughs)”

Yeah, the liveshows don't really have this atmosphere any more. I kind of feel like the format needs to change, although who knows how. I'm not a fan of the younow format with the way the messages get sent, but I guess there's no alternative for now.

yeah and then in one picture that has been tweeted we will somehow see an open door in the background...

I do think that at least martyn will be going with them. And then maybe why not cornelia as well? they need people to manage the merch stands..

Sharing a tour bus will be interesting though

[lilMango]

Wow, you guys are fast.
First of all, that live show is really interesting and I think the "chubby" talk is particularly weird for him. Nowadays I feel like he would never talk that openly about comments on his weight/body (it's funny because he wasn't really talking openly about it, but for Dan that was about as open as it gets).

Also, about the tour bus thing... I've never been on one but I feel like the bedrooms would be really small and D+P would barely be able to fit on a bed that would be hilarious, just imagine Dan curled up on a tiny cushion like "It's ok guys I'm comfortable, no need to push the beds together.... p-l-a-t-o-n-i-c "

also I'm sorry if my gif is too tall. agh

I saw their duvets for sale on the ikea website like a month ago, so I don't think so. Unless they've only been discontinued in the UK

It might be just for the traffic
Edit:Or maybe they are already planning Europe, Asia,Australia tour... and that's why Dan said that everything is hunging in the air until july.

[deerly]

CHICKEN DAN CONFIRMED *the x-files theme playing softly in the distance*

Re bedsheets talk, idk how can they only own one set each, I have 3 sets and they get all discoloured and thin every ~2 years. It means if you have one, you'll wash it even more frequently and will have to buy new set like two times a year, aren't they too lazy for that? I know I'm too lazy for that haha

i just can't wait to hear straight from the horse's mouth how much FUN dan will be having being 24/7 around a perpetually carsick phil

Oh my god, I feel so bad for Phil, carsickness is never fun, even when it's only half an hour to get to the centre of the city, can't imagine what it's like 24/7 for several months..

I have two younger sisters that might be willing to be phans for a day if I pay them. Do we want a preteen or young teen or both just to be safe?
I'm like 87% joking..
