I agree 100% Rizzo I'm not even gonna talk about Dan's... escapades anymore, we might never find out the truth and that is just gonna bug me if I think too much about, so yes, beard-room talk is the way to go.rizzo wrote:Right. So, Dan tried, but back to the topic at hand... the beard-room.
Ya think Phil can even walk between bed and dresser without running into something? Does he have to sit on the bed in order to open the drawers? How long will it take for us to actually get a glimpse of their bedroom? I dream.
Haha, I'm British myself! My room is fairly small (not to the extent of my brothers, which has enough room for a bed and a side for him to walk a lil bit). It's just Dan and Phil can afford to buy an apartment with more room - if it was filled with boxes and that was why, I would understand completely and think he was probably using it. Dan and Phil can both afford to move to a place with large bedrooms and storage - moving somewhere where Phil gets less room doesn't seem the most intelligent idea, plus Phil's bed being slightly smaller I'm just ??? why would you downgrade son.plath wrote:British houses are much, much smaller than ones in North America. This is doubly so in places like London, which are significantly overcrowded, face a housing shortage, and have a lot of historic buildings. British people are used to much smaller rooms/living spaces than our North American counterparts - in fact, our view of what constitutes a large/small room is often completely different to those of Americans or Canadians. (Source: I have american friends, have lived in America, and watch a hell of a lot of those trashy property moving shows). Phil's room does seem a little cramped to me, but not ridiculously so. It's also likely that he's still figuring out the layout, or has the room half filled with boxes. I do think it's a smaller room, though calling it a "closet" is a little harsh...(we don't have built-in closets in England, we have wardrobes instead).saffarinda wrote:Whilst I completely agree with you, it's more the fact that Phil's room appears so much SMALLER that's confusing me. If they had seperate rooms I'd love it! It's probably healthier than spending 24/7 next to each other. But Phil has moved house only to get a smaller bedroom, with his drawers so close to the bed that he'd barely be able to open them? It just doesn't add up - they moved to gain space, not to lose it!chloek88 wrote:Here's the thing y'all...this fandom is obsessed with bedrooms and sleeping in the same bed as the be-all end-all determiner of whether deppy's relationship is romantic or platonic. and i think that obsession leads to some pretty absurd mental gymnastics that seem practically on par with larry nonsense to me, just to justify why they might have separate beds/bedrooms.
context: i have been with my boyfriend for almost 6 years now. there is nothing platonic about our relationship and we have a healthy sex life. but, if we moved in together, i would definitely have my own bed to sleep in, and potentially my own room. i'm a light sleeper, he snores, we're both restless, and neither of us are well-rested when we share a bed. furthermore, we're both highly introverted and while we love spending time together, sometimes we both need to be alone, in our own space.
this feels completely normal to me! when i'm unconscious, what does my proximity to my loved one matter?? why should that determine the status of our relationship/closeness/sex-life/anything?!
perhaps it's not strange to me because my parents, married 30+ years, have had separate bedrooms my entire life. they love each other deeply, have had a weekly date night every week for those 30 years, and i know they've had sex throughout the years because i have a biological younger sibling! but again, they like their sleep uninterrupted and prefer their own space. that certainly doesn't undermine their love, sense of romance, or sex life.
that it makes more sense to people that one of deppy's bedrooms would be a set or that they'd book hotel rooms with multiple beds to maintain a platonic illusion rather than just that they might prefer sleeping alone/having their own space --that seems borderline delusional and baffling to me. they're such large men! i'm sure they both take up tons of space! i think it's limited to believe that their relationship is only validly romantic if they sleep together. we already know they spend all their time together and there's so much more persuasive evidence in favor of their relationship being romantic. so to me, their beds mean nothing. (which isn't to say that phil's room definitely isn't a set. I can totally understand wanting to keep his filming space separate from where he sleeps/spends personal time. these are just my two cents that have been rattling around my head for quite a while.)
I don't think it's realistic that this bedroom is a set. That seems really odd to me.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was for a solo project personally, or possibly part of a joint project that didn't require Phil (although the latter feels like a bit of a stretch). If Dan did actually go to the Bahamas (I'm leaning toward he did, as surely if it was the restaurant other youtubers would have posted about it) it seems odd to me that he would spend such a short amount of time there just for fun. It would make sense if he just needed to film there briefly or something, so popped in and out in less than a day. Although, I would have thought someone would have spotted him at the airport tbh. Who knows though, it's so mysterious! Hopefully we'll find out eventually (preferably soon)!!!saffarinda wrote:If he was going for work, would that have meant it was a singular project without Phil? If he was going for fun, how come none of the other youtubers went with him? If it was from that RESTURANT well... perhaps Dan gave them specific flight detail to input or something akin to that. I doubt he'd be surprised if we cross-checked. I'm just waiting on his liveshow now
all fun and logic ideas, yet it doesn't feature the one I think of as most likely:lurker wrote:. possible other explanations despite the baby miles situation:
- dan appears as an extra in the opening scene of a new james bond movie which is currently being filmed in secret
- dan has learned nothing from his sunstroke and thought he'd tan by standing shirtless in front of the aiport for 8 hours before flying back
- dan and phil had a fight, and dan just wanted to make a dramatic exit by shouting "i'm going to fly to the bahamas so i don't have to see you", but then decided to go through with it for the full drama effect
- dan and phil were actually really angry about everyone knowing about the move beforehand ("you see everything, don't you"), so they sat down and meticulously developped a scheme that would confuse everyone, and now they'll never mention it again ("bahamas? i don't know what you're talking about") and it'll forever remain a mystery
- new daniel howell video on thursday! featuring a bit that necessarily had to be filmed there!
Haha I honestly couldn't believe it when I looked back through my album on Facebook, looking for something unrelated, and saw them two in the background! Makes me wonder who else they may have watched as the line up that day was pretty good for bands similar to SOAD. I think Deftones were on just before so maybe they watched them also!000dia000 wrote: Holy shit, this is amazing I never knew this, is it possible to stan them even more??
Also, this incident is amazing, what a funny coincidence, particularly in this instance.

I found out either 2015 or 2016, I forget which. I was posting about something Reading Fest related on another forum and went to look through my photos from it and spotted them. Makes me wonder if I walked past them at any point during the festival weekend! Oh to have been a fan back then!autumnhearth wrote:Wow. How bizarre to have a photo with in it without realizing it at the time. (Unintentional creep shot. , Dan looks like he might be judging you/wary.) How/when did you find out?
This isn't the only time at I've been close to them without realising. I used to spent a lot of time in the area they used to live. I have photos of me and my friends in the pub almost opposite to their old flat and we are outside the pub in the snow pretending to be the snowman. Tbh I am pretty grateful I didn't know of them/wasn't a fan back then as it would have felt so awkward being so close to them, I probably would have been on edge and enjoyed it less also./fɪl lɛstɚ/ wrote: That is so incredibly bizarre.

I second the idea of looking through the rest of your photos. This is a great gem

Nope, it's illegal to put anything in a passport as a joke. They're really strict about it. I don't think it's fake.anime_is_not_cool wrote:That stamp is really confusing me, idk anything about travelling but is it allowed to put those on passports as a joke? Or to make a fake passport for that?
Yup which is exactly what the Bahamas thing is too. Fucking with our minds whilst sitting back watching the fall out haha!dansbonsaitree wrote:Honestly the whole Haru thing is more proof that Dan is a massive troll who loves fucking with us.
I was going to quote Nihilist Toothpaste's Tumblr too - the flight details were legit and the passport stamps also. Why would a restaurant fake boarding passes with real flight details? The Bahamas are just a short flight (75 mins) from Orlando so a day trip is very possible. I'm intrigued as to why it was only Dan going on the trip...is it possible his family were out there on holiday and he went over to see them for a few hours? I think a secret project work explanation is the most likely thoughfondsmiles wrote:I saw a very sherlock-y and detailed post on tumblr, the person found out pretty much everything you've already discussed too (flight information etc), but also provides a theory that phil was still in orlando and then just picking dan up from the airport, plus an explanation for the three days stated on dan's visa.
Ooh, good catch. This makes a lot of sense and would totally explain the timeline and current situation. (It's also weirdly comforting to think that even with all their money even they would find the london housing market an absolute b*tch to deal with...? #relatable lol)blackdenim wrote:Re: Phil's beardroom:
I'm personally of the opinion that 'that week in March' was either a potential house sale went wrong, or they applied to rent a place they really wanted and got turned down/messed around. The London rental market is brutal, and if they then had to find something else at short notice they might have ended up compromising bedroom space just to get into something quickly (especially if they knew it wasn't going to be their 'forever home'). And most 2 bedroom flats have one big room and one small room anyway.
So I don't think it is a set - although as others have said that doesn't mean anything as far as their relationship is concerned - and I also don't think it's that unusual that Phil would downsize his bedroom if he had to, especially not if there's a lot of space elsewhere with 2 living rooms, storage, etc.
has anyone found the floor plan of their new apartment? phils room could be much bigger than what is shown on camera and it's possible he just pushed the dresser into shot to jazz up the backgroundthephandommenace wrote:Phil's bedroom:
Seeing as the place apparently has so much storage, it could be that Phil's bedroom 'set' is purely that - just a bedroom, and he keeps all his other stuff in another room, like his own office. They seem to have enough space for both of them to keep their sleeping and work/leisure quarters separate, which is apparently the healthy thing to do. (I know I can't study for shit in my bedroom, too many distractions and thoughts of sleep.) So he can keep the bedroom quite bare, with his signature sheets, a set of drawers for props and some more miscellaneous props on top of it to keep the brightly-coloured AP feel, but he hangs out in other areas of the house. That's not to say I believe they're sleeping apart, though (not that it affects the meaning of their relationship if they did). The fact that he got a smaller bed, and also didn't mention anything about it in their joint liveshow had me very ... Also with how cramped his room looks (even if he's planning on moving stuff around) I'd find it annoying sleeping in such a small room with a clunky camera tripod and softbox always in the way, constantly reminding me of work...
I do think the bed and dresser are close together in order to be in the shot, but the fact that they had to be that close together to be in the shot indicates that the room isn't big enough for the camera to be positioned far enough back to even achieve the same spacing as his last room had.mesmericphilip wrote:has anyone found the floor plan of their new apartment? phils room could be much bigger than what is shown on camera and it's possible he just pushed the dresser into shot to jazz up the backgroundthephandommenace wrote:Phil's bedroom:
