Dan & Phil Part 6: Choke Me Dad(dy)

[Diyes_Celine]

Can I join the therapy session if it turns out that they are or one of them is straight and they are PLATONIC friends?

I'm not targeting you personally here, but I don't quite understand this mentality in the Phandom where people like to argue against the possibility of their relationship solely because 'they are straight' or 'one of them might be straight,' as if one of them coming out automatically means that they have to be dating. Queer people can just be friends and live together, guys. (Not that I think this is the case for Deppy, because I am for life, but y'know. It's not necessarily an either/or situation.)

Sorry if it came out wrong. I was supposed to add "and NEVER be together" but I believe on never say never so I decided against it. I know that if one of them comes out it doesn't really prove that they are together. And I know platonic friendship applies to queer people as well. I am bi and in my head straight people are not keen on falling for your bffs (?) Sorry if it sounds wrong again. this night shift is killing my brain cells.I guess I should have said, "...if it turns out that they are PURELY PLATONIC friends?

Now he is neither a grower nor shower.

I guess Phil gets his clumsy side from his mom.

Cool. FKA Twigs has a video where she plays on voguing (though I never really knew what it was before. It's nearer to the end of the video. I warn you, its a bit creepy at the start. I think Dan said this is one of his fav FKA Twigs songs, so its safe to say that he's seen this video.

[offtopic]Wow this is beautiful, thanks for linking me. And yes, this is vogue, actually prominent vogue artists are featured in the videos, and dem deathdrops[/offtopic]

ooh nice, I'd never got around to seeing that video until now. There's so much power and grace in their moves. It's mesmerizing..
I know in the DITL vid he was just playing around with the Madonna reference, but with how he's expressed interest in dancing in the past and the way he kind of went all in with the Just Dance vid, if he really dedicated time to it, to voguing or anything else, I get the feeling he'd be pretty good.

(or this is just me channeling my need to see Dan dance. Not in an ironic joking around sense but actually busting a move and owning it.)

But it's Diet Coke, It's not sticky...!?

I have nothing to contribute to the current topic and also life has been getting in the way baw.

what does break into a vogue mean?

Vogue is a type of dance move, originating from the gay club scene in the 90's. I think Dan is a bit too young to know how to vogue.

He really isn't? I am younger than him, plenty of people i know are younger than him and still vogue (and we are all gay lol). Of course, what he is doing there isn't really vogue but just doing standard Madonna popularised head frame thing that everyone knows, but he sure does it with great flourish and the proper expression lol

Yeah, he's not too young at all. There's a dance duo called ayabambi (aya sato and bambi who are a couple that I believe recently got married as well?) that do a kind of modern version of voguing. (They hold workshops as well which I'm interested in myself.)



Now imagine doing this...
Come on guys, not too late to add a new feature to tatinof before it goes live.

The mental image of them doing that on stage actually killed me. Also, thanks for introducing me to this stuff guys, that video is so cool. I hate saying 'couple goals' but those two are definitely embodying it.
Also, I often forget that the majority of the people on here aren't straight and that I'm often preaching to the probably more well-informed choir.

But I'm lowkey like

[lilMango]

The FKA Twigs video was so cool! I hadn't seen that one yet, but Dan is the one who introduced me to a few of her songs. I feel like Dan has such an interesting music taste and I want to see MORE of it, you know?
There's a spotify playlist that he put together of songs that he played on the radio show. I don't know if analyzing it would be worth my time, but I really feel that the music you like says a lot about your personality. Is anyone else interested in that?

[flarequake]

It's always great seeing Dan dance. Someone in his last liveshow chat mentioned a ballet class and he liked the idea of learning it. I did as a kid, I'd love to see that. Phil's not bad either, despite what he thinks. He attempted a pirouette on the radio show once and he got the gist.

[akui]

It could be interesting, do it!

Although i don't know why my spotify list is just literally Adele and Sia, does this mean I'm a sad bitch?

Lol that was literally me about a year ago. I'll try to analyze how his taste has changed over time too, so thanks for reminding me

[majitzu]

You guys are edutainment... I decided after reading the phrase "grower or shower" that I definitely didn't know what it means by context, so I searched it thanks urban dictionary and well I was not impressed after almost "1 year" in this forum.

Is great that my friend doesn't know english cause I'm writing this on class

[sweetmm]

Can i be honest with you guys? I feel like it's a safe space? And we are bonding?

I kinda like Ben Cook.

I can't say I like him but I do enjoy his antics

[spaceguitar]

Glad u guys like the FKA twigs
In relation to Ben Cook, I really did like Becoming Youtube. I think that Ben is obviously very talented, and he made the series extremely engaging.
As a person, no
I think Jhamba's interaction with him elucidates all of the reasons that I feel this way.

[akui]

Guys i was doing some research and found out that the average view to sub ratio is 14%! Now I'm real impressed with deppy, because Phil's video have no trouble hitting at least a 35%. And Dan is even better! They both way above average! And the gaming channel is 50%!

If I'm channelflip i will never let them go.

[Cora]

... And Dan is even better! They both way above average!

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[sweetmm]

Here are two react videos by a channel called Couples React and so far they have reacted to Pinof 7 & Pinof 1.

It’s really funny, because they don’t know whether Dan and Phil are brothers, friends or a couple. Although they do keep saying that they boys remind them of themselves, and they are obviously a couple.

Thanks for the find ; the guy in the couple is me when I first saw PINOF1.

That is really impressive. I'm weirdly proud of this

Yeah sucks for channelflip that they have already lost two of those channels and will more than likely lose the third one as well. Good on the boys though.

Yes, this! To all of it. I am about to say this but you post faster than me.

[Lurktacularr]

I feel like I /could/ like Ben if I'd never seen his social media. On video he seems fine but he really does just scream into the void of the phandom and it makes my dick soft. So, so soft.

Am I the only one that feels like their output (across all mediums) will probably actually improve during the tour? It did during the UK tour and I don't see why it wouldn't again, especially with how much they'll have to talk about travelling around a different country. With videos specifically its like they know eyes are on them and people will be quick to criticise if they don't upload. I like to compare it to when I bowl into work blatantly hungover... I'm, if anything, more productive, because I know how quick the comments will come if I don't put my game face on.

I'm a responsible, functioning adult, I promise

Anyway in these dry times I just rewatched this:



Never noticed the leg grope at 2:36 some debate in the comments about who it is:

1) Dan's hand, Phil's leg (my opinion also even if the leg is on the meatier side for him at the time)
2) Phil's hand, Dan's leg (hand - specifically the nails - doesn't look like Phil to me... too stubby)
3) Dan's hand, Dan's leg (I know he's double-jointed but unless he can also detach his arm at the shoulder and move it 2ft away from his body I can't see how that's possible)

Soz if that's been brought up before

Most probably Dan memorised all the steps in Vogue; he seems to be obsessed with Spice Girls when he was young and dances to them and enjoyed Lady Marmalade video. So he most probably goes through all iconic music videos even those before his time and mimics them, I think he tries to learn all the viral dances as he gangham style too. I believe he enjoys dancing and its sad he does not share more of this side of him in his videos.

This was brought up back on the site that shall not be named. Don't remember the conclusion but personally it seems obvious it's Dan's hand on Phil's leg for all the reasons you said.

[bluebox-away]

Participation video is up, seems a bit late with the first show being this weekend already! Looks like they filmed it in Florida?

Phil licked me!! I repeat: PHIL LICKED ME
I think the fact that I watched the entire video even though I'm not going to their show says something about how trash I am at this point.
Can someone analyze the HECK out of the bathroom behind them? lol
