The terrible French might be part of the point, or they’re just ignorant/don’t care enough. I think the ‘hon hon’ is a really stupid not even sterotype of a French man’s laugh? (Like ‘ha ha”.) I can picture a chariciture, but I have no idea where it comes from. That part rubs me the wrong way and all the socialist and communist mentions, but whatever.
Ah thanks for the link @LadyLackless that’s really informative.
The reason why there are socialist and communist references is that this is a parody account of an Elon Musk parody account that made that kind of references to make fun of Elon Musk. Some of the French Dan tweets are almost direct copies of what the "French Élon Musque" tweeted before rebranding into a left-wing account.
Examples of this:
edit: Here are some more because this is the top of the page.
@liola i was literally thinking of you when i wrote that it sounded italian
i really wonder where the boys are and i reallyyyy hope we gonna have some insta stories from where they are because i’m travelling vicariously through them
I know they said their flight was direct to Melbourne (and I’m not doubting that) and I know that that’s where their next show is, but the Tolkien nerd in me is hoping maybe they will go to New Zealand during this “week” off before their shows. I know they’ll have some time there later and that there is plenty to do in Australia, but I want to live vicariously through them “roleplaying as hobbits” (as mentioned in a recent show, but I don’t think that needs a spoiler warning.) And I hope that means actually going on a tour rather than just eating ten stacks of pancakes. Of course I also hope they take a couple days to just rest and adjust. I know I mentioned it a couple months ago but does anyone else have thoughts on a possible DITL location? My bet is still on the Philippines.

Yeah ever since they said that wanting to go to Manila is what actually sparked the whole idea for a second tour, I have a strong feeling that if not a DITL they'll at least be spending some quality vacation time in Manila.

My guess was India. I don't have any logic behind but I do really hope they do a ditl, it would be such a wasted opportunity if they don't.

What a hoe, of course Phil liked it
Very late, but thank you so much for writing this, I've been reading "express shoe" in Dan's tweet the whole day and feeling very stupid not understanding what the joke is about
Dan wants to be understood. Phil just wants to make the viewer smile and sell some backpacks (c) fancybum
Thanks for the examples @somethingsketchy those tweets now make much more sense, though many of them fall short of the original. No problem @coffeepenguin any chance to reference that little bit from pinof 9, ‘that’s our Dan’ And yeah, @alittledizzy at the very I least I need an instastory of Dan calling Phil ‘King of the Philippines’ while they are there, with Phil doing a little strut or pose.
I dont have anything substantial to say except fuck he looks incredible I want to give him all my money I would rob a bank full of candies stolen from children just for him and his eyes
Will probably never be over the BONCAS and the beauty of Phil Lester.
Lol, so that’s the Phil version of a countdown? Cute. Damn, he looks stunning. Now to decide if white would be a good colour of hoodie to wear. I haven’t worn white in years.
Mmmm some nice hd photos right there! So we know there's a hoodie and socks, any bets on other items? A t-shirt seems plausible, perhaps a white dad hat with a cactus on it?
I swear I'm not trying to get our transcript writers to have a mental breakdown here, but anyone else have this weird sense of 'But how would Loki feel about all this plantbased merch?!' ?
Probably just me. Solid branding, Philly, you can't kill plants on sweaters. (Please note the sarcasm here)

My Rize senses were tingling. Well... its better than a 15 minute notice.
YAAAAS RIZE QUEEN you have really tamed that app from hell
But seriously I was about to kill them because my phone notif cut off right before the 'in about an hour' part. But I suppose they'll live another day.

Just a reminder that during the last show, they said they might video chat with people on the app, so everyone should prepare for that possibility as well...

You're being beamed up by aggressive aliens and they're plugging in the anal probe

Dan Howell, 5/10/18 Try new things..?
im obsessed with that hoodie and i'm obsessed with how beautiful phil is the rat is phil merch and im the smiley.
i only have $6 in my clown bank (piggyback except it's a clown) and i'll do literally anything to save up for that hoodie. i also hope there are accessories, especially hats! also hell yes ls! i knew one was gonna happen!! although i'm not looking forward to my battery dying and my phone to become radioactive. though i could probably cook my dinner over the heat it while i watch... i love being a lifehacker :^)
