And that's just one that I happened to have saved on my iPad for, uh, no particular reason.

We're lucky if we get to see more than his shoulders these days. I'm not sure if he's more self conscious now that he has more viewers or if he's just being more aware of his public imagine/children watching him.

(I've always thought it was interesting that he routinely censors his chest and stomach but not his high upper thighs.)

But anyway gigs, I don't think people actively want them to go shirtless, but I think they'd be pretty exited if they ever did show that much skin. They've done it before of course, as your Phil pic proves, but not in years. Like not since 2010 or 2011. But I don't think people spend time hoping for shirtless D&P the way they spend time hoping for regular uploads and phan proof.

Regarding April Fools' day, I think it'd be pretty funny if they did something random where Phil recorded a video confessing his undying love for Dan, recounting his favorite moments they've spent together and stuff (all fake, of course). Phil's a good actor so he could def pull this off. It could even include cute illustrations of the events he describes. Then they could have arranged it so they uploaded this video to Phil's side channel privately on Valentine's Day (i.e. a month and a half ago - yeah this idea would require some planning but I think D&P are capable haha), only to purposely unprivate it on April Fools' Day. They'd make it seem like YouTube accidentally unprivated it through a glitch or something, so people would think the video was real! All the phan shippers would go crazy!!! Then on April 2nd, Dan and Phil could be like "HAHA PRANK'D UUUU" and reveal that it was all just a big April Fools' joke. Wouldn't that be so hilarious? Or idk, do you guys think that would be too mean??? Some people might get upset at them I guess (actually yeah the more I think about it the more I think it might be best for a prank video like that to just be kept private on Phil's channel indefinitely haha)

And damn you guys for suggesting DanAndPhilBeauty, I know literally cannot think of anything else this morning. PLEASE, BOYS. PLEASE.

Already had to go watch the blindfolded makeup challenge this morning. Nothing scarier than a cleaver-wielding Phil. Almost made up for no baking video

I don't even want to watch easter nests.
Louise collab... "Dating advice with D&P" - What?! They're all single people in their mid/late twenties, they must have heaps of valuable exp......... NOPE.

I just... I can't. 10/10, you little shit!

^^ wow, what a good idea of april fool. Lots of people could be fooled. But I think they shouldn't do that, it will be drag on and on for the remainder of their times on youtube and people will be pissed and unsubscribe. They should delete the video just in case youtube really have a glitch and unprivate it just to troll them.

In all seriousness tho,

Imagine if they did it and changed their minds and then Youtube really had a glitch and unprivated it. They would never talk their way out of it even though they're only p-l-a-t-o-n-i-c best friends. All the crazy shippers would think it was real and start blogs and gossip forums trying to prove phan. They might even find their old deleted videos and secretly give out the links like a drug deal or something. There are some really obsessive fans out there.

I got my just desserts for posting risqué pictures of Dan and Phil btw.

After posting it I switched to Twitter. And then suddenly a group of 5 year olds sat down next to me. So for 20 uncomfortable minutes I couldn't click on safari because the first thing these children would see was a naked Phil.

So I just sat and uncomfortably stared at Twitter

I knew I'd seen him do the thinking/tapping before now...! It's something I do (although instead of the side of my head, I rapidly tap my fingers on the bridge of my nose...) - This is how I ended up watching that VidCon panel in it's entirety yesterday... anyway - he does it when "Channelling Lancashire" - which is BS. Everyone knows the "entry word" for lancs accent is "Toast." Fact.

Dan's thighs, though. So so so feminine (much more than my own thighs T T).

Oh, tell me about it. I have aqua instructor thighs. I haaaaaaaate my quads. (It's a thing, no matter how ridiculous it sounds.)

I still don't understand where his butt ends and thighs begin.

annetamiau wrote:Dan's thighs, though. So so so feminine (much more than my own thighs T T).

I think about this every time I scroll past it. For some reason all I can think is.. They are so "meaty".
Like.. I wanna bite them... Is that weird? Yeah that's weird I should shut up.

But Dan has an interesting body type in general. Especially compared to mr.spaghetti Phil Lester.

^ it's not weird. many have the urge to bite down hard when they see them. i hope no one ever does, though. that would be violent.

Dan's features are not unusual in isolation, but his specific combination plus his face are atypical/less common in both men and women. i find androgyny so unique and beautiful to look at.

Except Phil.That's allowed.

Yeah, Dan seems like the type to appreciate being bitten, and Phil seems like a biter. (true soulmates)

(I wish I was Phil. Or Dan. Either would do, tbh)

'The first time we met, I was the nervous-est person ever, as you could tell, and I was clawing at you, and biting you, but that was just because I really liked you, and luckily you saw through that.'

The first time they met. They both sure move fast

Jesus Christ, I'm trying to be full study-mode, concentrate and casually read this forum.

Apparently that is not possible without giggling like an idiot =X

Them biting references tho, dayum

Now we are on this topic, what on Earth did Phil mean with the 'clawing at you and biting you'? I cannot picture it in my head. Is it an expression? Was it him being weird?

Possibly something like this.

That makes sense. I had seen the video but hadn't put two and two together. It's probably something like that. At first I thought it was an expression I wasn't familiar with and tried to look it up but I didn't find anything.

Thanks!

Ughhhh same. Fed up with seeing "don't cry, craft" on the comments of EVERY video, instagram, twitter post, everything.

Phil is wearing matching socks??? So the odd socks are a persona thing too

mez29 wrote:Phil is wearing matching socks??? So the odd socks are a persona thing too

Not necessarily. But probably, at this point. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day...!

I just remember last year when D&P got the silver play button for craft channel at the same time as Evan did, and Evan was vlogging and he had to explain the person next to him why D&P got the silver play button.

Hmmmmm dat feeling, dat face slapping, eye gouging, soul sucking feeling........................ YES.

Our local cannibals are back at it again, lol.

Clawing and biting? What is he, a cat? ...wait a second. #furryconfirmed come one guys it's about time to get the furry theories started again

Mainly because in a way for them that's personal. Something they - Dan and Phil and not dinof and ap - enjoy.

They're not like other gamers who started out unknown and if they played something they liked it was just accepted. Everything they're gonna do will be scrutinised and that was there from the beginning on.. So having something you actually enjoy in your spare time judged might keep them from doing it

That is such a good point. And really, I don't blame them too much for wanting to preserve their enjoyment of some things. Dan and Phil both seem very keen on keeping things that are genuine to them off-screen. They have lines they won't cross for the sake of (and how close as we to this being in the same category of non-word as persona?) fanservice. (And isn't it just too damn sweet how many of those things they won't show or go too into on-camera have to do with each other? Or, alternately, too damn co-dependent. But I prefer sweet.)

Hm, you're making a good point but I'm not completely sold tbh. It's not like he'd be revealing some deep, dark secret - he's talked about Guild Wars and Halo more than enough in the past and they've already played Halo on Dan vs. Phil. To me, it's just like they don't want to properly commit to a game. If they started playing Halo or Guild Wars or any other game with a proper story for that matter, they'd actually have to post videos on a regular basis. Look how much they're already struggling with Undertale which is, tho great, still a rather short and simple indie game. I don't want to be the one to call them lazy again because yes, they do a lot of stuff behind the scenes and they have their tour and had their book etc, but still, they already only post once a month on their main channels so is it really too much to ask for a "proper" game?
Also, like one of you mentioned (sorry, forgot who), the very reason they started the channel was because they "play so many games in their free time anyway they might as well film it lol".
Yeah. Remember when? /grumbles/

About the Dan being a gamer bit, I thought I heard him say somewhere (might have been a live show) that he isn’t a gamer not that long ago. I might be wrong, but I think I remember hearing that and thinking it was strange, because he has previously stated otherwise.
Again I may be wrong and just misheard it.
