I'm not exaggerating when I say that insta is easily my new favorite photo of Phil.
It's up there for me.
(just under my pfp because we can all use some quiff in our lives)
Like it could use some quiff but I love how he's not got the butthole mouth or the deer-in-the-headlights eyes

Same ^ the expression + the shirt (which I've also been looking for to no avail) makes this a favorite

I hadn't thought of it like that before- maintaining a brand probably means they don't feel like they can change their appearance just whenever (but I'm glad Dan changed his look and went with his curly hair; though to be fair, that was around the time of his rebranding, so it works out in that regard)
almost top post, darn

Excuse me while I die from the Lesters' soft and warm smile.
Also this:
How sweet is this?? They filmed it 2-3 days ago and didn't feel the rush to scrubbed off the sharpie tattoos? Awww. (I hope at least you don't still have the whiskers, Phil.)

And such relief. Briefly, I found myself thinking, "What if... what if it's designer?!"

I hadn't noticed lion! I'm nostalgic now better go n watch a bunch of 2009 videos

Then Dan's status as a fashion icon would really be dead in a ditch.
God bless Phil's frugal spending habits, the most stable thing in this fandom.

It’s this one
I just looked at so many shirts on every high street shop, department store, comparison site, Amazon and every designer included in the first 20 results on Google, and it’s fricking Asos after all (I looked at them too). Good find I love that colour and the simple touches of the collar and covered button planket or however they put it placket. There are so many boring or overdone shirts out there, he has good taste.

Fuck me, that lobster thing is a weird kick of nostalgia that I definitely don't hate.
Now, a (small, bc my patience for scrolling youtube comments is limited) collection of my favorite comments on pinof9, after it trended:

Now that this is our thread name, I finally had to admit to myself that I didn't know what mince pies were and googled them. I somehow thought they would contain minced meat, but it sounds really tasty and now I want to try one too!
I thought of a ~protip~ if you have good self-control and are worried about a content drought during the tour*: Just don't watch Gamingmas! Then you got 24 videos to spread out over 5 months.
*Speaking of the tour: Do we have an acceptable abbreviation yet? I know that acronyms are a bit "old branding", but "II" just looks so crappy. Is it two captial i's, two lower case L's or a Roman 2? DAPWW doesn't have a good ring to it either. Please don't make a non-native type out "interactive introverts" on the regular.

Mince pies are one of the best things about the festive season. I've been very disciplined and have resisted them so far (they are not very healthy) but will be indulging when December begins! I'm definitely going to be trying out the D&P favourites from Waitrose...wonder what score the boys gave them!
My crappy suggestion is that we should call the tour LDT (Lady Door Tour or ell dee tee)as Interactive Introverts is a mouthful, even to a native speaker and 'II' is just a bit rubbish and easy to miss when reading through text!

Don't feel bad, I'll admit I need to google what mince pies are every year. For some reason I always manage to forget that they don't contain minced meat.
@George and I usually call the tour 'The Rat Tour', which doesn't flow properly in English, but the Finnish equivalent sounds really funny. The reason why we have our own nickname for the tour (besides the official name being a mouthful) is the fact that us two generally refer to Dan and Phil as 'the rats' when we're talking about them in Finnish. Adding grammatical case endings to one-syllable foreign names just sounds wrong and messes up the flow of speech and text, which is why we've resorted to using 'the rats' as a kind of a euphemism. :mrgreen:
Anyway, can't we just say 'Lady Door Tour'? That was already a thread name and everything.

But then that’s just a self-imposed content drought during gamingmas.... Like ‘why be bored later when you can be bored now?’
Nah, tour drought is future-me’s problem and she can go fuck herself while I enjoy gamingmas

I love how involved they are with Make a wish UK, it really warms my heart
A lot of people on tumblr qnd Twitter are speculating Phil went to see his family now bc he won't go home for Christmas. The idea of derpy and preppy spending Christmas together for what I reckon would be the first is indeed cute, but I highly highly doubt. That said, they have such a big house, they could for sure host their own party for once and invite their families over, spend Christmas together AND see their families.
Pardon me as I go cry in a corner at this cute picture of Dan being proudly showing off their real Christmas tree.
I also just realized that since the beginning ofof the year they don't seem to have spent more than 3days apart, or am I wrong?

I think this tweet from Cornelia confirms that it was indeed Phil's grandad's 90th birthday celebration, BUT that headcanon is cute as fuck.
