After watching the Suggs calendar shoot, I'm excited to see 2017 Calendar. I wonder if they finally do a professional shoot or stay true to their Phil's room studo

I believe Phil's shoe size is larger based on him complaining his feet were too big that he can't get the shoe he wanted and if I'm not mistaken Dan go it instead.

not that I want to bring back the #busgate or anything, but I liked how Phil mentioned the bus tour video almost as an afterthought and didn't really talk about it - instead, he almost cut himself off and went to talking about socks ( of not, you decide)

re: symbiosis, I'm glad they (Dan) finally found a label for their relationship they're comfortable with, baby steps

I'm sorry if I come off as mean or something, I actually love them very much, I'm happy for them winning the award, especially after Phil talking about how he never won anything at school, but I'm still not over about TATINOF fanfiction bit, I know everyone's bored to death with this discussion, sorry, I'll get over it eventually (maybe I have to see it live to understand it, if they indeed do a Europe tour)

(Now I can tell my biology teacher that our vocab words finally did me well- I didn't have to look up the types of symbiotic relationships before I posted this )

Having kind of a crap day for trivial reasons, but you put a smile on my face, so You guys are the best!

(just appreciating the emojis)

didn't get to watch all of phil's liveshow today, as i went halloween shopping!! from what i've heard, they're announcing something about tatinof eu next week? i mean no offense to anyone in the general possible tatinof eu area but ever since the release of the doc and film i've been hoping with everything inside me that i would n e ve r have to hear the word tatinof again. after all the shitty promo that we've gotten instead of actual content the thought of another tour physically drains me- and i felt like it had gotten to them as well but i suppose not.
earlier i saw someone mention how it seemed weird to annouce eu dates after the release which i also thought about. maybe it's something else? who knows, i guess next week we'll find out.

edit: i'm also kinda sad they aren't starting spooky week tomorrow. it was my actual motivation to roll out of bed and go to school but im gonna have to find something else.
edit 2: sorry for being such a downer today

On another (very random) note: I'm currently working on a compilation of photos Phil took of Dan. While collecting the images, I happened upon a photo that I'd never seen before, and I couldn't find it on either Dan or Phil's Instagram or Twitter. So I went on an intense search for it (lol sometimes I get sort of obsessed with things) and finally, on the danisnotonfire tag on tumblr from October 2012, I found a screenshot of the source, which is apparently a deleted Dan instagram photo! I think it's interesting so I thought I'd give it its own post (since the compilation won't be posted for a day or two, probably).

Date: 11 October 2012

Caption: earlier I had a moment when I fell into a pit of despair so I decided the only thing that could heal me was a jumbo nutella belgian waffle. everything was nutella and nothing hurt.

Screenshot: Basically I bet Phil took sad, despairing Dan out for waffles and that is so adorable.

It's interesting to me that he deleted the photo. I wonder why and when that happened.

Another interesting tidbit: Dan was supposed to upload a video that day (11 October), but he didn't. He tweeted that he was feeling "a bit exhausted" and would upload the video the next day instead. (Which he did do — the video was "FANDOMS.") Idk, I guess I take this as more evidence that Dan was having kind of a rough time that day.

Completely off topic, but was one of Phil's videos always called "gay shoe marriage" because I swear it was called "bisexual she marriage" ???

That is a sweet picture of Dan. It's interesting how big food is for him, though I'd find a chocolatey and chewy waffle great for that too. Also a friend around to listen, makes it quicker if nothing else. I wonder if he took it down cos he looked back at it and cringed for some reason. I tend to if I overshare, or maybe some comments were annoying

I think since Phil is a bit awkward, he probably can't wink under pressure or something. Sometimes his winks are in fact a bit weird (in an adorable and cute way ). So either Dan means that his winks didn't look the way he wanted and that equals Phil can't wink for him, or Phil just couldn't do it while being in that position and being filmed by Dan. Makes much more sense than Dan lying about it.

I decided to use the dinof theme for Halloween (even though I've never really celebrated it, it's not a thing here ) and although my favourite colour is black, I must say that I prefer the AP theme. Also: is an emoji I didn't know I needed until it was there. You guys did a great job, it looks amazing

Genius idea. The pet would kill off Phil instead of the other way around...

Has he changed the video name? I thought it was bisexual shoe marriage as well. Hmm.. wonder why he did that?

I'm pretty sure it's always been "gay shoe marriage." Here's his tweet from when he first uploaded the video:
Possibly you guys are thinking of IDB user BisexualShoeMarriage?

Completely OT but what are these "themes" i keep hearing about? is it a IDB or twitter thing??

JoeAverage wrote:Completely OT but what are these "themes" i keep hearing about? is it a IDB or twitter thing??

It's an IDB thing! There are two themes:
- "AmazingPhil": the default, dark text on a light background with a header patterned like Phil's duvet
- "danisnotonfire": light text on a dark background with a header patterned like Dan's duvet

The default is the AmazingPhil theme, but registered users can choose the danisnotonfire theme if they prefer that one! This thread contains screenshots and explains how to switch your theme.

We now can't say they don't do labels. They are now like sharks and remora fish.

I was a surpise that Phil did a ls. He looked so good and happy. And yes, Phil should be worried that Dan kept on wearing onsies. Dan lacks snuggles.

It was interesting to see that they won against the Suggs when Radio1 changed the rules.

Whoops! That's probably it

Sorry Europe but I was hoping tatinof was finally over

A bit sick of it now. I want them to rebrand.

Well, this wasn’t what I was expecting to happen when I picked my username. Wow.

The video was called Gay Shoe Marriage when I first watched it around 2013. I picked my (regrettably long) username in honour of that video. (Because while same sex marriage is commonly called gay marriage, bi people might also want to marry someone of the same legal sex. I’m bi. I needed a username.) It stuck in my mind because it's a very rare example of Phil expressing what was, at the time, a political opinion. From the 12th March to the 11th December 2012, there was an official “public consultation period” to inform the government on whether there was public support to make it legally possible for people of the same legal sex to marry in England and Wales.

I imagine he deleted it because he decided he’d prefer not to have people in the indeterminate future knowing that on that day he’d fallen into a pit of despair from which only a Jumbo Nutella Belgian Waffle could save him.

I remember that photo, though I had kinda forgotten about it until now as it's not a particularly interesting one. Weird that he deleted it.

He probably did have a rough day, but then again 2012!Dan rarely uploaded on the scheduled day :') 'New video on Thursday!' and in the best case scenario it'd be uploaded on Friday at 5 AM. Worst case scenario was him still editing on Saturday in the corner of the living room (when they still had the Mac on the dining table) during Phil's liveshows. Bless him, I miss those 5 AM uploads.

2012 photos make me miss Dan with earrings, he rarely ever wears them anymore
