The ending was so wholesome. I so so enjoyed this liveshow.

I hate the fact I said "lounge maybe" and it was in the lounge
but really though, I loved this live show. Plus this was the first live show I've been able to watch live in weeks! Sad though, I'll be missing the gaming live show on Thursday. Oh well hopping it doesn't lag as much.
Also, totally betting the vacation they're going on is with w&b as theyve gone around this time before a few years back.

Very enjoyable liveshow! Love that they're going on a little vacation, I wonder where to (and of course, with whom, maybe Bryony and Wirrow again?)
Dan seemed really genuine today and spoke about interesting things. I'm not too hyped for his uni video as I'm no longer at university myself, but perhaps he'll share some interesting experiences.
He talked about being too busy to go anywhere else than Playlist, Vidcon and Australia this year, kind of confirming a secret project again. Ugh, I'm curious about everything, this is the worst
Can't wait for the gaming livestream tho
On another note: I am so jealous of how nicely furnished their place is.

I'm sad that there won't be a Phil live show this week, but very happy about the gaming live steam.

Their kitchen looks good, but not too big from this angle.
I assume it's with Bryony and Wirrow. Didn't they go on vacation with B+W to Crete randomly at some point?Ablissa wrote: Tue Sep 05, 2017 9:26 pm Very enjoyable liveshow! Love that they're going on a little vacation, I wonder where to (and of course, with whom, maybe Bryony and Wirrow again?)

Judging by the lavalamp behind him, Phil did his liveshows in the lounge too. and he sat somewhere at the kitchen table ?

Their place looks so so nice but I guess because we haven't seen much it gives me a feeling of an interior magazine. Pretty, but a bit cold. I wish we had more pictures of it or something, I just miss how the London apartment was so easy to recognize and it gave me a feeling of warmth. Maybe I'm weird though
Will probably never be over the BONCAS and the beauty of Phil Lester.

Ooh, good screenshots, well done. I'd be sad if they don't have their coloured chairs anymore, though I'm all for a good dark brown. I'm not into grey, but the grey they have looks pretty chic. The kitchen looks pretty, I like how it opens into the lounge, though it might be annoying depending on how good their windows and fans are.
Good to have a heads-up on next week and Thursday. It's a shame they're happy to replace one thing with another, I mean, a live gaming stream in place of a gaming video would be fine with me, I just prefer the regular liveshows and not to lose one every other week for some random reason. Of course sometimes they might even be unwell and don't want to say, but anyway.
This liveshow was lovely, he talked about everything, good to hear his opinion on Edinburgh, didn't give a toss about music myself, but interesting to hear what the kids are into. He was just warm, relaxed and sweet. His fluffy hair was cute as hell, though the stream wasn't properly clear, I see from screenshots that it was for other people. He looked cute all round and ended it nicely with that kind of talk again. I hope he only muted Sue Perkins for spoilers, sounded like it was general tbh, though, ouch.
Fricking YouTube chat system annoyed me, it's racing past cos they don't slow it down like YouNow making you wait a minute or three, then suddenly it stops you, saying you've said too much. I don't like the surprise element, do it up front fgs.
Loved hearing him say he was writing, I was totally there for him to be writing a novel, but whatever he's doing, cripes, just the thought of him physically writing in a notebook sounds cute (and hot, but mostly just lovely in an arty way). It's really interesting to hear about his creative conundrum of which kind of video to make. It sounds like he asks himself good questions to work out which would be the best for him and his channel and audience. I've been making somewhat similar decisions about races and voids lately (amazing that voids can need so much thought, but between worlds, afterlife-limbo etc)
I was so glad the school-type video will be about university. Usually I'm all for do what you want and no judgement, but he did look a bit huge and too old in that school uniform. It was cute, though, and a funny video (I hope he's discovered Tom Lehrer).
Pigeon drama was interesting, though I was sceptical when he said he has no interests so can't tweet much. Going outside, or not, is one thing, but he's into formula 1, guild wars, anime, piano. Goodness knows how much they both exaggerate for entertainment and relatability, I'd love to trust what they say as I usually do anyone, but eh *shrug*

Dan seemed very open today! Telling us about the upcoming trip, talking about how he feels about conventions and his creative process once again, and even pondering the idea of a video about mental health! (that surprised me tbh)
Oh, also saying he was writing on the train. Ideas for content and "big future plans" :tinfoil hat: those boys definitely have something in the works.
On a superficial note, he looked v handsome
I was impressed he cut (well trimmed, really) his own hair, even though he said not to be lol.

I didn't post it here, but I was sure Dan would do his liveshow in the lounge, too! And I thought about it on my own, it just fits with Deppy's recent effort to give us a tour of their flat as quickly and at the same time as casually as possible (what's up with that). Loved the liveshow, lots of great moments, I particularly appreciated the part where he talked about doing videos about mental health (around 33 minutes in)confusedpanda wrote: Tue Sep 05, 2017 9:23 pm I hate the fact I said "lounge maybe" and it was in the loungebut really though, I loved this live show.

I agree he must've unlisted University Life after rewatching it while preparing for a new video.
edit: oh no, I became "sad dimple" with that post, how fitting

Dan wants to be understood. Phil just wants to make the viewer smile and sell some backpacks (c) fancybum

So hey lets talk about that First Date game that Dan and Phil have on their gaming shelf? Since I think the tumblr embed code is still broken, I'll just link to a post with some screencaps of questions.

Wow, that game looks like a lot of fun. The questions are hilarious. We know they'd both rescue cookies from the bin, but I think they were still in a bag. Tbh, don't wanna know who has the best poo story. Interesting range about people as lovers (lol, easiest and loudest), also pretty harsh about who's already peaked in life. Still hoping I haven't, this sort of thing could lead to some serious arguments if you're not careful. Maybe not so fun

Perfect timing for us to figure this out only a few days after we discussed what board games we'd love to see them play on the gaming channel.alittledizzy wrote: Tue Sep 05, 2017 10:20 pm So hey lets talk about that First Date game that Dan and Phil have on their gaming shelf?

Agreed, he has so much to talk about in liveshows, like if he can talk about the music he listens to for the better part of an hour, there's no way he has no interests to tweet about.flarequake wrote: Tue Sep 05, 2017 9:52 pm Pigeon drama was interesting, though I was sceptical when he said he has no interests so can't tweet much.

Also weird seeing that Deppy have a board game that seems so explicitly a couple's game.

Of course the game is sold on Firebox because that's where they buy everything.
but really, when will they get that #spon for firebox??

Like either they bought that game themselves, like deppy saw it and genuinely wanted to buy it OR one of their friends got it as a gift for them which well lmao
And either they played it alone just the two of them or they did like a double date thing with briony and wirrow, and again both ideas are hilarious to me
Oh my lord. I want to be a fly on the wall when they play this wtf why are they like thisalittledizzy wrote: Tue Sep 05, 2017 10:20 pm So hey lets talk about that First Date game that Dan and Phil have on their gaming shelf?

i guess i believe they're together now. i hate the fact that its a fucking board game that has pushed me over the edge. part of me is like 'stop over reacting, its just a game' and then the other half is just 'well why else would they fucking have that'. ugh i hate them and their dumb relationsip.
please someone convince me this means nothing so something better can make me believe. (its not just the game obvi but this is like the final nail in the coffin)
