Dan & Phil part 26: You’ve got an impressive length

[eevee]

But I ask you this: how do you suppose they get the queen/full bed out of the bus?

i assume the same way they get it into the bus? disassemble it into pieces (and put it back together afterwards)

What about the mattress? Not gonna lie, I feel like the builders put at least the mattress inside early on, I can't see the mattress fitting through the doors once it's done.

i always assumed that the bed frame was fixed to the ground, like the rest of the furniture is, so it doesn't go flying everywhere when the bus is moving

and also the bedside tables are fixed to the wall, and the bed fits perfectly between them, two beds would take up more space

+1 . It just seems unnecessary and not-that-easy to get the one bed changed to two single ones. I especially don't think it's likely because then would have to explain why they lied on twitter about there only being one bed.

[pearshaped34]

If I'm understanding people are suggesting D&P may have got a bus remodelled so they had two separate beds at the back of the bus however this still doesn't fit with the info they provided us which suggested Phil had his own private room. If they shared a room with two single beds then why not just state that on twitter instead of pretending they slept in different rooms? It's not like they don't share twin hotel room in the vast majority of vlogs they are in when away. The only reason it makes sense for them to specifically state Dan slept in a different area is if there is only one bed back there.

That being said even if we confirm they shared a double bed in the documentary the information doesn't really mean anything to me. If they are just friends then I get why they'd share a bed and lie to fans about it and if they are a couple then again them sharing a bed and lying to fans about it makes perfect sense. I won't be any closer to knowing whether they are #platonic or #married whatever the sleeping arrangement turns out to be.

(read at your own peril, it’s city in here)

Well, most of it has already been said so I’ll join team Phil-was-ah-mazing. He looked happy and well rested and calm and excited and…yes, gorgeous. He also seemed to be in the kind of mood where you look good and you know it…not in a conceited way, just that look when you know everything’s working for you. He also seemed to look directly at the camera more than usual which just added to the factor.

- (general comment) Anyone else for Phil doing his little arm-stretchy thing he does when he says “welcome to the show!” (among other things he finds exciting)? I find it a bit cartoonish but very endearing
- Phil sass I mean…it’s so subtle and calm…just slowing giving out emoji to everyone, everyone except Dan…and then “oh yeah, gotta give one to Dan too ‘cause he’s complaining”…also, “did he block me?”…somebody’s either in the doghouse or gonna get a "recreational whoopin' " after the show...perhaps both
- Nature boy Phil, sitting in his red chair, gazing out the window at the squirrels and the birds
- This eye thing baffles me. I wear contacts, have slept in them, worn them on planes, etc. and cannot imagine them getting so dry that they rip layers of your eye off. Owwww It must be the intense not-blinking (which he seems to do a lot in general). Glad he’s healed up from that.
- Doctor drug story. Now that I’ve heard exactly what the doc said he was totally flirting with Phil. Not a conventional way to say “I like your eyes” but…pressing their heads together? Wish I’d typed “was he cute??” in the chat also, the way both of them seem to react cringingly to flirting recently is not helping my newfound phan-is-real belief
- “Swaggy” and “whaaaat!” re: Mario Kart, that was so Dan
- Having us name a shrimp that’s already dead? It’s like “Can Your Pet” all over again Aw…you can’t hurry love, Philly.

The -part...how he left the show, said goodbye, covered the lens and everything…then suddenly decided to “say goodbye to more people” among them “Darla.” You cannot convince me that he didn't do that whole thing just because, in the excitement of a good ls, he forget to say it

[dollicious]

just finished watching phil’s ls i thought it was cute and the stories he shared were quite funny. here’s some of my insignificant thoughts on it:

3:36 “i’ll have to give one to dan because he’s complaining” i don’t know why, but i love the thought of whiny dan.
5:33 phil says pumpkin spice is just cinnamon flavor like dan did last week..
6:59 JAPANESE CHERRY BLOSSOM scented air freshener kill me
8:35 “move out to somewhere with a bigger corridor” yes please go move to a big house with a koi pond in the back.
11:26 “i’m happy on life” i don’t know why but that sentence made me so happy? it’s stupid but adorable.
22:59 some battlestar galactica thoughts and “really strong female characters, which i loved.” i enjoy hearing phil mention that as it seems it’s normally dan who would talk about gender roles.
30:46 tomorrow we get to see some scrapped promo art ideas for tatinof/doc movies (which i’m assuming are the “gifts” for tomorrow).
40:48 last minute darla mention.

re: busgate i have nothing new to add to the conversation but agree with what a lot of you have been saying in that i hope they don’t mention it. it doesn’t have to be a big deal, but if they make too many nohomo jokes or talk about it in too much detail, it is going to become a big deal.

well said! I fully agree with all of this, especially your last paragraph. They really do have their reasonings and that's fine. Also I will say this, with their track record with sleeping arrangements in day in the life videos, I can't see them possibly confirming they are sharing a bed. I expect ether dan waking up in a bunk or dan always being awake before phil is, sitting in the lounging area. And even if they actually surprise me with confirming they shared a bed, that doesn't prove anything.

[fancybum]

I think we're ignoring the most obvious solution: they just drew a line in tape down the middle of the bed. Maybe they used chalk, or a divider made of pillows.

I hope they very seriously tell us Dan slept on the roof and just leave it at that.

Who's making the bigger deal out of it? Them or us.. The tweets got the ball rolling, but was that only because they anticipated us turning it into a thing? Would it have been bigger or smaller if they left it alone from the start and who comes off worse on either side. It feels like a tepid cold war between D&P and their most entitled fans over ultimately pointless information. I want them to just troll. Lie straight to our faces because I don't remember ever swearing them in.

Related-but-not: I'm surprised no one mentioned Colleen (Miranda) and her husband are getting a divorce. They had their wedding all over YT just over a year ago, her husband started as a fan (remember the "stalking works" exchange between her and Dan at vidcon 2015).

Together for 8 years and posted videos on their separate channels on Friday explaining their divorce as they felt obligated to after inviting their fans into their relationship. To para-quote tomska about his own public breakup: "We let them in, so we had to show them out when it was over."

Just another example of why people justifiably make the decision to never let their fans/strangers into their private lives to begin with. Messy and awful if it ends, making an emotionally shitty time just that much worse.

This actually was mentioned! First yesterday(?) on the bingo board thread and then here a few pages back. But I agree with what you said.
It's honestly such a shame they're getting a divorce

Also:

I hope they very seriously tell us Dan slept on the roof and just leave it at that.

[LurkingTrash]

It's so much stuff going on I'm stressed I'll forget something important. I'm even thinking about making a calendar for deppy stuff just so I won't miss anything but I'm too lazy for it I'll rely here on idb for news I've forgotten to check.

you're welcs (obviously some of the liveshows are potentials as they might not do all of them seeing as it's a busy month for them).

ily missemma you're a life saver

I was confused about the door thing from watching today's vid but I must say that reading you guys discuss it left me even more confused i'm slow(not that I'm not loving every second of this talk, I'm just sad I've been too busy to join in) but I'm team 'no one can convince me they didn't sleep in the bed together, phan or not' but I hope they just don't mention any sleeping arrangements.
I can't friking wait for wednesday I'll trow my money at them so hard it will be a miracle they don't get a concussion

I am forecasting some groaning and general disappointment around here in 3 days re:#busgate

Ikr? Lol. I just hope that whatever happens, people won't let their disappointment overshadow the rest of the documentary.

This is a good thing to keep in mind, especially for us idb folks

Really enjoyed today's liveshow and promo!video

a) I actually considered a real-life version of this. Something along the lines of 'need to actually wear pyjamas cos I'm sharing with Dan/Phil'. I'd frankly prefer tape.

b) same.

Who's making the bigger deal out of it? Them or us..

Us. Definitely us.

I posted this on this thread this morning like 3 pages back why you missin me how dARE YOU SHADE ME LIKE THIS

(I won't quote myself cos I don't want to be sick in my mouth but basically yes 100% agree)

[JoeAverage]

Hey guys, new here, I dont know if this has been discussed lately but I just wanted to add if anyone remembers the May younow where phil forgot who supposedly got to use the room? (I think they decided with rock paper scissors or sth ). It just feels kinda like that again, like they are not bothering in hiding stuff as much anymore and everyone is just blowing up stuff.

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Well...we're probably making it a bigger deal. Oops. Also, I was just tweeting about them trolling us, lol. It would be pretty funny if they just put obscure references in the background of certain shots, like a cherry laying around or a valentine or a calendar that's suspiciously actually a 2009 calendar

[Winston]

I've been thinking about the whole relationship not out in the public eye thing, and the whole "what about if we break up" stuff. Even if they aren't together romantically, we are still very much interested/invested in their relationship as it is. Friendships also break up, which people seem to forget. So even if they never come out, their fans would be heartbroken if they actually did have a falling out. Would they make a "break up" video? I mean the others that have felt a kind of obligation to do one. To me Deppy are more of a thing than Colleen and her husband. I don't watch her very often but what I have he was only in one, and it was his arm...then there's deppy in a ton of each other's videos on each other's channels, as well as the joint channel. PvP I never watched but they had a joint channel didn't they? So they were more together, in life and on YT. I can see why they would make a video. I see Deppy in that boat, romantic or not, they have a very public relationship. I keep having half thoughts on this and what it means and if it changes my ever changing view of deppy.

I'M SORRY omg wow that's what I get for skimming. I was even waiting for someone to bring it up but all I saw was 'bus this bus that' and I just. can't. I was trying to wait it out until Wednesday. Ah:

I'm hammering the OT button this week but here we go:

[offtopic]Not sure if anyone's seen, but Coleen and Josh are getting a divorce. They've both made videos but I'll just link hers since its most relevant to the point I'm making:



Its watching shit like that, and the videos when PvP broke up, that make me realise why Dan and Phil may never want to come out. Forget the unpicking of years of denial, forget the potential (or inevitable) hate and homophobia.

Coleen's video is a hard watch because on top of all the shit she's going through in her own life, its pretty clear she feels massive responsibility towards her audience and that she owes them an apology. She in fact owes them fuck all, but I can see how she feels like that. I saw how PvP felt like that too. Because they shared it so they have to keep sharing through the nitty gritty. Whilst Deppy aren't vloggers, even with them not out I'd say they have a more invested fanbase than most youtubers so I think it still applies.

These are relationships which lasted 8 and 10 years respectively. Its not just the short-term stuff that can crumble (e.g. Hannah and Ingrid) and whilst I can't see the boys ever heading in that direction, its still quite sobering to watch this shit.

This post was brought to you by I'm Normally Gagging For Them To Come Out But Sometimes My Brain Turns Itself On[/offtopic]

Whoops! Yup I should have just kept lurking (but better), because THIS. ilu. How dare I miss a post, it won't happen again.

There's always the part of me thinking it's not the same when it comes to D&P: Collen & Josh are very different people and wanted different things apparently and said they've struggled through a lot of their relationship, only showing the good parts. Meanwhile, Dan & Phil are basically clones in terms of (the majority of) their interests and careers/(& career goals? we don't know). They've been living together and working together basically since they met, and only appeared to have a bumpy time around 2012. Since then they've just appeared closer and closer. But obviously they're not showing the bad parts either; we don't know what they fight about or how often.

And people are already overly-invested in their relationship, so it's sort of strange to consider what would really be that different if they did confirm anything. I mean, if we found out they were moving out separately, I think people would be as upset/insert-feeling-here if it was a breakup. Right? They would just be using a different word. Really they're already in that position, just with different words on the surface. So when it comes to things like this, super-together-appearing-couples breaking up, it kind of freaks me out tbh. Things are always too good to be true; can these nerds really have it that good? Does love ever last? This got weird, moving on.

ANYWAY I'm going to take this into fantasy-town (because I don't believe they'll ever confirm it) BUT WHAT IF the very last shot of the documentary is something beyond domestic. Or the last segment or something. Dan said to watch it in order: show, then doc. Obviously that makes the most sense, sure, if you're into linearity. But then all the talk about it being the end of the last 7 years of Dan and Phil, the Brand. danisnotonfire & AmazingPhil. Best Friends, Roommates, True. That all ends with these two films. But in what way? Just leaving behind the llamas and lions and continuing in the same vein, just slightly more mature? Or as Best Friends, Roommates, True, and... ?

Do I believe that's likely? No. Does that stop my brain from thinking through all kinds of unlikely scenarios? Not even a little bit. Shut up brain, it's not happening. And maybe that's for the best.

replace 'dead' with 'ambiguity', thanks

These boys just have us hanging on a string that sometimes feels like it's attached to a yo-yo.

If they are in a non-platonic relationship I wouldn't mind them "aging-up" a little and letting go of the "platonic roommates" pretense even if they never confirm it. I mean, Phil is turning 30 after all. But we just had some "we don't share rooms" with the DITL Australia, so I'm not expecting any thing.

[alittledizzy]

Phil liveshow timestamps. I just really enjoy him a lot.

Phil just has such a fantastic energy with liveshows since tour ended. I don't know what it is - I thought the good mood would face.

:51 - October is in his top three months. Favorite month is December. November/January are a tie, likes them both. January is his bday/NY. October he likes because everythign is becoming more autumnal and Halloween. He likes him some spooks.
2:10 - "Give Dan an emoji."
3:16 - He picks emojis from his recently used. Now I'm gonna want to psychoanalyze the emojis he gives people.
3:41 - "I have to give one to Dan because he's complaining." What a put-upon hubbie Phil is.
4:38 - "Perched awkwardly on those stools." Commentary on his comfort level while sitting or self-awareness at how awkward the interviews were.
5:26 - Two PSLs so far, average is 12.
6:32 - "My twitter doesn't even work because I didn't get that reply. Like, my notifications are off the charts-" I think he was going to say he should have gotten that notification (because he has Dan on notifs) and then derailed the sentence.
6:55 - "We had sandelwood [as air refreshener in the toilet] but that ran out and now it is Japanese cherry blossom, which kind of gives me feels for Japan." Nostalgic poops.
7:33 - Fave piece of furniture is the red chair in the office, likes sitting there to look out the window. He looks at the squirrels.
7:55 - Does not like sofa from hell. Only got the sofa/have kept it for so long bc nothing fits up the corridor.
8:36 - "Need to get a new sofa. Or just move out to somewhere with a bigger corridor." Pause, swallow, um.
9:02 - A hawk. Mated. With your eye. That's what you'd go to? That's what you think is a funny story, Phil? Eyefucked by a hawk? Eyefucked? By? A? Hawk? I'm with the doctor, I want to know what you're on.
9:42 - Cheeky little nap.
10:33- This story is why I will never wear contacts.
11:18 - "Are you on illicit drugs?" Phil was so indignant.
11:55 - "I'm not that kind of boy."
12:15 - "Get over it, dude." So Dan-like.
14:15 - "And Dan was saying..." eye patch bit.
15:15 - "The World vs. Dan and Phil's Eyeballs, maybe that could be another book-" stop.
15:29 - "Props box." "Really weird props." dildos, amirite
16:04 - I want his Mario Kart expertise to culmniate in a new gaming video please.
16:40 - Not gonna highlight any individual points of this, but his Alberta story is just fantastic. I'm infatuated with every little exclamation and genuine expression of shock/horror/emotional response.
23:03 - BSG talk. I'm jealous of that box set. Didn't tell anyone he watched it to avoid spoilers (smart) and loved the strong female character (YES).
23:38 - "frakking incredible" nerd
24:26 - "I'm not a big fan of Star Trek." wow I don't even know you Phil why would you hurt me like this, unstan
24:37 "intense military relationships secrets" top five tv shows he's ever seen, yes good as I expected
25:23 - "Had such a good day actually. Watched the three hour Battlestar finale and the Food Wars finale on the same day, and ordered Dominos pizza. In top five days of the year, that's gotta be up there. It was great. It was so good." He's been to multiple countries, performed dozens of stage shows, met countless fans, he's got a movie, a documentary, and a book coming out soon - and the best day of the year so far to him? Watching really good tv shows and eating pizza with Dan. Re-stanning, I'll find a way to look past the Star Trek remark.
28:08 - Specifically addressing why they wouldn't be playing certain games, naming a lot of the games people have brought up.
28:48 - Phil didn't play outlast but he watched Dan's video playing it and was very scared.
29:55 - Photoshoot took about six hours.
31:19 - Undertale Week. They're being noncommittal on the time frame, which is probably smart.
32:10 - Almost followed a goat twitter. These are the Phil updates I show up every week for.
33:03 - He'll get DAPGO on release day, same as we do.
34:34 - No More House Plant Death.
34:42 - Doesn't like glasses bc they weigh his face down. No one cares about your pain, Phil. Succumb to our demanding, entitled whims. Glasses every day. Glasses always.
35:47 - AmazingPhil on the tuber game is not really Phil. Sad womp.
37:12 - Phil how did you shrink your shirts.
37:50 - "We also recorded one in London but Youtube were like hey we want to do it in 4k."
38:26 - Excited for Arrival with Jeremy Renner, and bought The Witch on bluray.
38:58 - "I'm being quite social and hanging out with a few people, and my parents are coming to visit London." So they're totally having a private premiere/party.

[fancybum]

Um Phil liked missemma's tweet! Congrats! and now I want those stickers too

[Phantasy]

What I've always found interesting is the radical difference between two sets of YouTube best friends, namely D&P vs Joe and Caspar, and the ironic thing being that J&C act 100x more "coupley" than D&P. They are always touching, near on flirty even, constantly see eachother naked, take pride in wanting to share beds, etc.; now I get that some of this is clickbait type of behavior, but a lot of it is obviously genuine—yet we firmly know that both are straight and we accept that upon face value because everything is out in the open. Meanwhile, D&P avoid touching at all costs, hide or try to obfuscate most evidence of their intimate behavior, and any domestic displays often just seem accidental or for convenience sake. The difference goes to show how squarely outside the realm of "lad/ bro culture" D&P are... I think if D&P weren't hiding something and trying too hard to cover their tracks then they would have no problem sharing a bed platonically and making it into no big deal, but overall it's the general act of denial and covering tracks that is most revealing and fuels the mystery.

You can make the same argument when compared with other YouTube best friends too, like Kian & JC, who act more or less like Joe and Caspar. Or if you'd say sexuality is the key difference, look at Scott and Mitch, who have no problem being platonically intimate. Again, with deppy, the biggest reveal is in the details that are hidden.

I watched the trailer to Jaspar's roadtrip film thing just to cement how differently the two pairs behave in a similar scenario. I recall quite a few bromantic, touchy-feely moments in that trailer, meanwhile here we are crossing our fingers for a damn hug that may or may not even happen. Dan inserting his fingertip into Phil's nose is the closest thing to a sextape we'll probably ever get.

Ngl I've been watching a bit of trashy UK reality TV recently, and lad culture is so homoerotic. And even if Depples are not and never claimed to be lads, I can't help noticing the difference.

Tatinof Show and Documentary Thread Promo

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to take a moment to promo two threads here that I made a while back to reserve a place to discuss the tatinof show and documentary after they’re released on Wednesday:

http://indepthbants.com/topic414.html ---> Tatinof Show Thread
http://indepthbants.com/topic413.html ---> Documentary Thread

Basically, I want to make it easier for the people who won’t be able to watch the film+documentary right away seeing as they are not the same as regular free YT videos that can be watched at any time.

Plus I think it’s easier to ignore two whole separate threads designated to the tatinof stuff (until you’re ready to read it) than to read through the main thread and have to skip a post, skip part of a post, etc. due to constant spoilers and in-depth tatinof discussions that would normally be mixed in with everything. This way you won’t have to filter through endless posts in the main thread.

Basically, I want to make it easier for the people who won’t be able to watch the film+documentary right away seeing as they are not the same as regular free YT videos that can be watched at any time.

Plus I think it’s easier to ignore two whole separate threads designated to the tatinof stuff (until you’re ready to read it) than to read through the main thread and have to skip a post, skip part of a post, etc. due to constant spoilers and in-depth tatinof discussions that would normally be mixed in with everything. This way you won’t have to filter through endless posts in the main thread.

What a great idea!

What I've always found interesting is the radical difference between two sets of YouTube best friends, namely D&P vs Joe and Caspar, and the ironic thing being that J&C act 100x more "coupley" than D&P. They are always touching, near on flirty even, constantly see eachother naked, take pride in wanting to share beds, etc.; now I get that some of this is clickbait type of behavior, but a lot of it is obviously genuine—yet we firmly know that both are straight and we accept that upon face value because everything is out in the open. Meanwhile, D&P avoid touching at all costs, hide or try to obfuscate most evidence of their intimate behavior, and any domestic displays often just seem accidental or for convenience sake. The difference goes to show how squarely outside the realm of "lad/ bro culture" D&P are... I think if D&P weren't hiding something and trying too hard to cover their tracks then they would have no problem sharing a bed platonically and making it into no big deal, but overall it's the general act of denial and covering tracks that is most revealing and fuels the mystery.

You can make the same argument when compared with other YouTube best friends too, like Kian & JC, who act more or less like Joe and Caspar. Or if you'd say sexuality is the key difference, look at Scott and Mitch, who have no problem being platonically intimate. Again, with deppy, the biggest reveal is in the details that are hidden.

I hate to be a party pooper, but that really just depends on the person. Me and my best friend whom I've known since we were both 4 years old, went to the same school, shared all our interests, have never hugged ONCE in our lives, because we both are not cuddly people. I barely ever touch my friends in an affectionate way if it's not punching them in the face jokingly. I hug it out with some of my more casual friends occasionally, but those are really affectionate people who greet people with kisses n stuff (and I bet they feel I'm a bit uncomfortable when they hug me). And I am a girl, which means I'm supposed to be all fluffy and affectionate according to bullshit stereotypes.

tldr; it's an interesting observation, but I don't think it means anything

Hi guys! I've been lurking for a while and I decided to say hi (and tbh the IDB emojis are so cool?? Like I need to try them out).
But anywho, re: bus floor-plan layout. I have a ridiculously long explination/idea under the cut.

For fire safety, I might be wrong but I don't think that door phil is opening can be the bathroom door? Because that door should pull inside the bathroom, not be pushed out if I'm making any sense. I'm leaning towards what a few other people have suggested where the door with the deppy sign is the barrier between the general living/kitchen space and where the bedroom and bathrooms and everything are. I was a roadie for a smaller band for around a year and we had a really similar bus, and we had one door opening out towards the front of the bus like the door phil is opening, and that door separated the general entrance room with the kitchenette and sofa. We then had a corridor with built-in bunks and included a shower room on one side and a bathroom on the other, and then another door separating that space with the bedroom (which three of us shared), where that door opened inwards towards the bedroom (so when your walking into the bedroom you would push the door in).
Anyway, that was way too much information but it just seems that the door Phil is opening can't be the bathroom, because general fire laws (from my understanding) is doors such as bathrooms need to open inwards so if something falls in front of the door you would still be able to exit the bathroom (even for really small bathrooms this usually applies; even like on very small airplanes). That usually applies to bedroom doors as well, at least with commercial vehicles like the bus, so I don't think that door would be the bedroom itself either. At least from all the (many) buses I've traveled on it probably just leads to the next section of the bus, since that's usually the only door that opens that way. But then again I've never traveled on a bus with this specific company so maybe it's different.

Anyway, to summarize my very longwinded post---rooms with only one door in cramped spaces like the bus usually swing inwards for safety and spacial reasons, so Phil is probably not opening a bathroom door nor a bedroom door, it's probably the door separating the front entrance/living room from the rest of the bus.

I've thought about this for too long while I've been trying to stay optimistic about them sharing a bed, because I'm absolute

Is there also a thread where people from nobody countries like mine with no access to TATINOF and BTS at all can drown in their salt? Fml seriously

What I can look forward to though, is Undertale week, which I probably shouldn't look forward to because noncommittal Phil is noncommittal. Anyway, I really want them to just get Undertale done and over with because honestly, at this point, I am about as invested in this game as Deppy themselves seem to be. They just really dropped the ball on this one I feel. So many people talked about crying in a certain scene with the flowers or something and my reaction to when they did that scene was literally, "huh. okay."
They've dragged this LP out for so long that I can't remember what happened in the latest episode much less the whole game so far. Daily episodes is the only way I see for them (and me) to regain immersion so I really hope Undertale week is a thing.

And since they seem to be absolute shit at maintaining a semblance of a schedule, I hope Undertale is the last we see of an extended story-based game on their channel.
