Everyone's telling me about their eevees they're catching! I feel so loved and also incredibly jealous because eevees are few and far between where I live!

Holy Shit Dan. That is not good. I think he really needs to rest for a bit. Looks like we won't be getting the DINOF or Pokemon Go DAPG for a bit! I think he will cancel the LS tomorrow (He probably should tbh)

Same! Every time I catch an Eevee I think of you!

I was thinking yesterday that Dan's cold had been lasting a lot, but I totally forgot. Thanks God he went to the doctor, he has 1 month before AUS tour to rest.

I don't know...it depends on how okay his voice is. If he can talk without pain, then sitting down and doing a liveshow probably isn't going to be too strenuous. But if he really needs rest and can't do anything but sleep and watch TV doctor's orders I will be totally supportive of him cancelling. I'm just lowkey selfish and don't want him to cancel......but if he needs to I understand.

edit: he's not cancelling it most likely

I imagine...a lot of...exhaling...on Phil....in....certain situations....

Poor Dan! Glad he's got some antibiotics to help/kickstart his recovery now, and an excuse to get Phil to do everything around the house so he can rest! In retrospect I guess that's why they had to sit down a couple of times during the Pokemon Go video.

Also eevee I now have four of you! They're pretty few and far between for me too, sadly.

I finally watched the PGo video last night (after reading through the forum,) and I thought it was a lot of fun

The forum wasn't really spoil-ley, in fact it's kinda interesting reading other people's interpretations and then watching the piece for yourself. Anyway, I don't have much to add other than I thought the lighting in the office was much better - the guys were not washed out / overlit as they have been in the past. Definitely an improvement.

I feel for Dan. I had what I thought was a cold 2 weeks before Christmas, but it wasn't going away. My family shamed me into finally going to the doctor on Boxing Day, and after x-rays, it was diagnosed as pneumonia (wot?) Anyway, my loft is on the third story of our building, and I would be out of breath just climbing one flight of stairs. That's never happened before, and it was quite surprising. But the worst part of it was the cure - pretty heavy duty antibiotics means that you cannot stray too far from home, if ya know what I mean

Just make sure there is plenty of TP around the house. The bright side is that you can lose 10 pounds pretty fast...

Anyway, he should be resting up - perfect time to tweak his Cosplay gear.

Holy fuck Dan, get some rest, pneumonia is pretty serious.

And why does he need to exhale ON Phil? Ooooh the possibilities. (where are my ff when I need them?)

No wonder he sounded REALLY bad. Not sure if it was Dan or Phil who mentioned that the "cold" started when he was in the States. It took a long time before his pneumonia was diagnosed. Rest well, Dan. I say let Dr. Phil take care if you. (but seriously hopefully he gets well before they start rehearsing for the Aus tour.)

YOUTUBERS REACT: I am not sure if it's just Phil's default face but you can see in his eyes that he refuses to talk about the issue. Even Dan restrained himself. Thankfully. It was a sensitive topic where you should keep your mouth shut if you are not well informed about it. SHAY IS ANNOYING AF IN THE VIDEO.

But look, retweeted the video coz they were not used as clickbait. Take notes Fine Bros.

^^^^^^ this

I mean I'm not complaining but I don't have much to say.....

I googled 'pneumonia' to find out more about it, and Dan's tweet showed up as the second result. Weird.

That is weird. Happened to me as well. Maybe it knows we're following Dan?

Also, another weird thing, I searched "phan" in the giphy search on facebook chat and got lots of "leave" and "get out" gifs...wtf giphy? why so negative about the phandom?

Mon Jul 18, 2016 4:59 pm

I'm so amused that Phil replied to a fan asking if the one that is obviously notes to another person was to Dan, and agreed that they probably were.

I know it's like a broken record at this point but they're just so sweetly calm about referencing each other and acknowledging that they do almost nothing apart now.

That's funny i'm not gonna lie

Same here, tried it on my mum's laptop (she isn't following Dan on Twitter and to my knowledge has never even heard of Dan) and it came up there too.

It's a shame that Dan's still not well, I hope he's not too poorly and gets better soon

Aww, that's what I thought when I saw them. I love that we call ourselves trashy shippers, but honestly they're so sweet in reality we're not that far off-base a lot of the time.

Totally agree with this.

I also noticed that Phil said 'we' a few times in his latest live show, which I don't think he usually does so that was nice as well.

Regarding the React Video, I found that all the YouTubers present were a bit put off the subject as it was a lot different than reacting to something like Don't Huge Me I'm Scared. For that video the YouTubers were able to be lighthearted, crack jokes and give varying opinions but with the video on Carly everyone's opinions for a while were very constricted. While I thought it was great that the Fine Bros brought attention to Carly's channel a lot of comments were contrived and felt forced to fill silences. You can watch through it and note that a lot of reactions were merely people just staring at the screen, it's a difficult video to get a reaction as they are walking on eggshells trying to be mindful. It was a sensitive topic and for some their comments definitely came off forced, out of touch and ignorant, FineBros were probably scrambling for comments and content for this video, I doubt there will be any extras.

In the video description it says that extras are coming on Saturday, I think, but it might be a shorter video.

After having pneumonia (which is a severe chest infection incase anyone was wondering what it is) I hope Deppy sit back and realise that doing such a big tour in such a small amount of them isn't the wisest thing to do. Being a nurse I'd love to know what antibiotics and other stuff he got given. GPs can be really funny about dishing out medication in the UK! I would never had guessed he has pneumonia after watching the Pokemon video! He did well to walk around so far with a bad chest and only complain about his legs.

I think Dan designed it that way eevee

& pretty much just as we were talking about him being more comfortable joking about phan

I was referring to the Dan's comments about 'Professor Willow' in the Pokemon Go video. Damn that boy really wants people to know he's into guys

Yeah I got really ill too recently when I was taking the crowded Uni bus every day. I think it's when you are in a confined space with lots of people you pick things up - like Dan has been in packed out theaters. I hope he gets better soon, although he doesn't look like he's on death's door so I'm sure he'll recover quickly. I don't think he will be given antibiotics, I was really bad with it and wasn't given them. But then he's rich so maybe he will get a private doctor and special treatment

He didn't just get antibiotics, he got 'intense antibiotics', lolzor. I would love to know what he got, bit of Amoxicillin, Pen V? Also the medication to help with the side effect? The only side effect of the meds I can think of is diarrhoea! (Unless they gave him penicillin v and the side effect of that is a black hairy tongue, niiiiice).

Philena · Mon Jul 18, 2016 8:45 pm

A few things from Phil's ls that never got discussed, afaik:
1. Did Phil actually admit to being ginger (or at least "orangish")? I don't think he has actually admitted that before.
2. The inside of the bus being mostly black, for you #busgate people out there.

Get well soon, Dan! And, so long as we're talking about the effects of antibiotics, don't forget your probiotics, yogurt, kombucha, or kefir!
