Had a shitty work day and I come here and you guys are making me laugh so much. :platonic:

Can't believe Felix has mentioned then again. It is getting a bit ridiculous now and it feels like he has mentioned them in a every video this week! Surely there has to be ruse going on between them because they are meant to be friends. We all know Felix is taking the piss but it has got to be a bit weird for

Oh my life a Dan and Phil dating sim! Please can you make this happen haha?! Put it on steam and you could become a millionaire.

I cannot wait for the liveshow tomorrow. I wonder what Dan will say about the videos! I hope they film a DAPG soon and film at least a couple of Undertale videos for the tour.

I think the people that continue to joke do so (assuming D&P are together and these 'friends' are privy to the reality of their relationship status..) because they think they're helping by treating it like a joke/not-reality that 'shipping' usually is. Double-bluff? Like these jokes aren't outing anything or implying anything any more than mentioning Septiplier does. I don't see any issue with good-naturedly playing along with the reality of their rampant shipping.
Oh definitely! I also read it in this way, it seems more about the funny aspect of it all. It's just that when it becomes a running gag could get a bit weird? Maybe there's some context behind the sudden surge in mentions. :D

@oqua Oh it's a spon i guess that explains why it didn't show up in my sporadic monthly weekly .. k daily 'Dan and Phil' youtube search.
It's nice to be here. Thanks for starting up the forum oqua, I never did feel comfortable posting "gossip' about my "guru's". I aim to be classy trash

Just a random collection of D&P thoughts.
The more i research 'ANIME WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE' , them more i think he was just taking the fanservice to volume level 11.
Anyone else catching that desperate 'halp, i'm being so gay for pay" look in his eyes at 5:28 ? the life-sized cardboard cutout of that pose is expected for delivery at my house tomorrow morning
So idk anymore, I feel like what mamaphan said (and others whose name I ought to remember but don't) is spot on in that they should just be whatever they are and to try to label them as straight, gay or whatever might do no justice to the complex things that is human sexuality.
At the same time, because of where i personally am, i can't help but speculate about it, try to define it, and smile like happy retard whenever they make homoerotic or phantastic comments.

Maybe it's been too long since they've hung out and they're just on his mind? Phelix needs to reunite lol.

I'm pretty sure this is something that might cause Dan to have an existential crisis. :?

Maybe this is the time and place to petition D&P to bring us the freshest & the illest playlist mixes on younow. Starting with a 'thug lyfe' compilation of that pigeon shitting on their hopes and dreams with a solid death stare.

Pigeons always scare me, they always want to take away my food or poop on my head. :lol:
Honestly I feel like this is a tweet that Phil could have easily tweeted.Not saying he did, just that I felt like this tweet had a very Phil tone to it.

Yes to everything in your post. RE sexuality labels, thank you, and mamaphan for being able to articulate what I was struggling to. I totally agree - sexuality is a complex enough thing as it is and with the # 'the thought of going down on Phil is like you going down on your grandma' phase the sudden tide of male-attraction references - particularly in the anime vid - is just pretty damn confusing. (Side note: did anyone happen to make a list of the amount of references to cute boys and/or abs in this video and his anime recommendations video :lol:)

As for fan service, I don't think the theme of the video itself is that, however I definitely got weird vibes once all the Free! talk came about and all the "omg it's cute boys in speedos!!!1!" comments. Not in a bad way, it just felt more fanservice-y than natural. (Then again Phil made the same sort of comments in his #spon video so who knows )

I have Ornithophobia so that sounds absolutely terrifying to me. Birds are evil :tongue:
But yeah it really does sound like something Phil would tweet. Maybe it happened to both of them and Phil let Dan have this one.

That 'phase' was one year versus the 3 most recent years of overt male-attraction references: what's sudden about it?

I was going to say the same thing! But imo if it were a Phil tweet, instead of saying "I feel so distressed" it would say something like "I think it liked me "

Is there a playlist of all of the collabs have made with other youtubers? Today I watched one with PJ (The Pushover) and I had never seen that one, and I know for a fact I'm missing a lot. help a fellow trash out

The thing that made me laugh most about this is just the fact that Dan WATCHED a pigeon pooping for six seconds. Like he couldn't walk around it or anything: a 6ft something man just stood staring at a pigeon as it pooped, like he had to wait for it to finish before he could carry on with his business

But to be fair pigeons have freaking creepy eyes.

I totally intentionally matched with yours :platonic: because I wanted to do it yesterday but none of the gif making websites were having it, so today i saw yours and gave it another go.


And I do actually manually write most of the emotes out my hand, because I can't bare to search for them in the sidebar.

But who the fuck am I kidding? I'm mostly just the rotting banana peel at the bottom of the phan trash can who genuinely gets excited over the thought of them snuggling in bed. Idgaf let a bitch live

Co-signing the excitement for tomorrow's LS. No uni work for me so I'll be tuning in to see how he explains the new video, haha.

Oh sorry, that's not how I meant that, excuse my crappy choice of words Of course I know that was a 2012-thing and these days it's really not a surprise to hear Dan make a reference to male-attraction; there just seemed to be a lot condensed across his DINOF and DINI videos when usually they're just one-offs in separate situations (IE 'enter me troye', and if you don't count Phan-related ones of course). And granted in this case most of them were about Free!/Haru so it's not really a big deal, just an observation. :)

Oh ok, yeah I get that; it's pretty bold for his main channel (especially for people who don't watch his liveshows and haven't seen him mention Free/abs before :tongue: ).

This is random, but I really don't want him to be too self-deprecating about the video tomorrow in his liveshow. He tends to do that and I think especially since it's #spon he'll want to be apologetic or something, but I hope he fights the urge heh. I don't give any shits about anime and I enjoyed both videos because his passion for it came through and made it enjoyable. I want to see him be proud and confident instead
Thanks and have a great day! Oil me
