He wore his moth shirt a couple times at vidcon/playlist/youtube things iirc. Maybe someone with a better memory knows which clip you may be talking about though.

What hairstyle did he have in the clip you saw? That might help narrow down the time frame
not a great one. I think it was at least a few years ago. he was definitely young. I almost think it was a las vagas club. possibly from b-day trip? I mean it was not a youtuber video. the guy who made it did not know who he was. He was filming the club, and Dan just happened to walk in front of the camera.

He wore the moth shirt during VidCon and Playlist Live 2014 (maybe others I'm forgetting), so it could have been around that time, but I don't think I've seen that clip you're talking about.

I have seen all the vid con things from the normal people multiple times. I can't look anymore today tho, MY EYES! :shock: I had no idea full nudity was allowed on YT. jesus. the things i have seen this evening. Oh and MEN ARE PIGS. I need major eye bleach. In the clip I am talking about there is a lot of red. Like the lighting is red. Dan is young and with a few other guys. they all walk through shot, but Dan is the only one who seemed to notice. (it sounds like a dream, but I swear it isn't.) Just memory. I was trying to figure out why it would even pop up in my feed, I know I had looked up something from Magic mike so that must have been it. I will try that tomorrow because I definitely traveled down the gross side of youtube today. :help:

I try to search some gg tags in the deppy forum but nothing there. Also I'm curious about what have you just seen but can be bothered to experience it.

I didn't really like the video (I don't think I'll ever be able to like anything to do with dapgo but I will spare you guys from my salty rants) but congrats to you guys who got noticed! My dumb-ass meme was in Dan's "year in memes" video so I know how exciting it is

Winston, I really hope we're able to track down that video. I would love to see it!

They not only picked two 'Darlas', they picked two IDB members.


I mean what are the odds that that is a coincidence?

Re: o-man, I think he's deplorable, and the "poor me" routine is pathetic. Clearly he has no dignity or self-respect, and frankly he doesn't deserve any. The less said about him and less attention he gets, the better.

However, if there is a direct correlation between his click-baiting and uploading videos, then, by all means, o-man, carry on

(ok, not really. I'd rather have a drought. I wish he'd find someone else to be obsessed with. Seriously, I'm not sure he's right in the head)

This is so lovely. I remember seeing the picture of her and deppy and only thought of how tall she was. It's a good reminder that we all have something we are struggling with -- glad that Dan was able to help her in that moment. Proud of you, Danny-boy!

YASSS phils eyes. you cant even see his pupils i had to rewatch the video because the first time i couldnt focus on anything else
i loved the suitcase moment. both phils "almost" and dan reactions. bonus:phil looks great here
and the moment when phil was explaining if he is translucent or transparent (that felt like such a casual moment)
and dans "we are long beans"

i hate this. i think dan was making fun of the "we could play i spy" moment in their last video. with all the shaking and the touching:

that was such a nice moment and their genuine reactions i hate how dan acts so fake the next day and ruins everything. His overreactions and screaming and his fake laughs :x can he please act like a normal human and not a puppet?

I'm on board for Phil's eyes looking exceptionally pretty in the video. I wish I had something constructive to add but yeah, that.

Loved the two IDB Darla'a being in the video, I almost teared up; so proud.

This is one of the loveliest things I've ever read and it's totally on-topic so thank you for linking It's great that she said how she felt despite powering through it and that he responded like that, covering anxiety and awkwardness doesn't always leave room for getting across what you feel in the way you'd like to say it.

Loved the video, watched it three times already, barely even registered it was also book spon, it was such a fun and cute video. They put in a good variety of cheeky things and, old news ofc now, two of our very own Darlas Loved things like the way they turned and said "whisk" together, Phil's face when he said "almost", Dan wearing the Sad Boys top again while having such brown eyes

Coming out of lurking to comment on this lol As a tall girl myself, I loved this. I'm a little shorter than OP and ten years older, so I imagine I'm a little more secure, but reading Dan's comment actually made me feel better about my height. When I'm around other girls, I always feel huge (though I'm normal weight) and tall and awkward because everyone's at shoulder height, and this next part only has to do with her anxiety that Deppy being shorter than her, but when I go on blind dates, I get extremely nervous that the guys will be shorter than me. And it happens 9 time out of 10 that they are, and it's so disappointing. I'm so glad she wasn't disappointed and Dan was the same height as her. The own it message is so wonderful. Dan and Phil are really such sweet guys. I'm so glad they could help her.

I really liked all the videos they've uploaded in the last week. Dan's was my favorite, and I really love Phil's. The quiz and memes made me go rewatch a bunch of Phil videos. I was so happy that I found a video of his that I couldn't find for months, the Lost in the Mall one. I thought that was so much older than it was, so I'd been looking for it in the 2007-2010 range.

I loved Dan's voice in the video where Phil hurts his hand. I want a video where he only sounds like he's using his indoor voice, although I do like his more energetic moments in videos, too.

Also, new stuff that happened while I was writing. Please mean rebranding.

congrats to people from here being in the vid!

Did anyone else think from Phil's mention in the liveshow that he was intending to do the next Tumblr Tag? it was posted on 3rd october last year so it would be believable timing. i'm intrigued now whether we will get another reactions video soon anyway or whether they blew their load trying to distract from onion man. I'm also not convinced of that theory, though...maybe they are just running out of time before stuff has to be released and they hadn't done any promo for dapgo beyond the announcement? perhaps Phil realised this needed be done more quickly than anything he was cooking up.

i haven't read back thoroughly so sorry if i'm being repetitious/ignoring the same opinions:
- Dan's shake was way out of character imo. he seemed to realise it too, he didn't really commit to the joke
- he seemed low energy/low sparkle/distracted like he has a few times since the pokemon go vid which was high enthusiasm on his part.
- Phil by comparison is on point lately? his comedic timing and confidence is noticeable. especially at this moment:

and yes, the little looks to the side at Dan which he's avoided for so many years, and the Taylor Lautner comment, and the square beauty (lol) compliment.

Good point. Phil clearly has a thing for that guy, and I can't blame him for that. ;)
So people agree his way of being comfortable mentioning a male we already have knowledge of him liking to look at shirtless is to go for the emulation-comment? which Dan responded to/corrected as emulation, which tells me he either wasn't in the mood to be cheeky like the original Lautner quip, and try his luck raising an eyebrow at it, or that Phil would have edited it out of the video anyway. i'll give it to Phil as one though, because if he was embarrassed by that little revelation on stage years ago he probably would be avoiding ever mentioning his name again. just another example of Phil's confidence/relaxation coming along in baby steps. i'm here for it.

There was a moment, at 4.30ish, where Dan reacted interestingly, to Phil's "sink right into the crease":
Image
Image

It's where i'd expect him to do Prissy Mouth, but it was much more emphasised with the lip pressing and nodding, and then just kind of looking at Phil sincerely? i'm in two minds as to whether he was reacting to the possible innuendo (that i don't think Phil intended/noticed himself), or to the implication that they are most comfortable at home together and it was 'the best time''? i think this is what i feel with Dan having inconsistent energy the last few weeks. some moments it's like he just can't fake the Broadcaster Dan reactions, and just reacts normally, like the shady/low voice liveshow the week before last. idk.


*sees above posts in the time it's taken me to write this*

Absolutely devo over Radio1 nail in the coffin :cry:
fuck. it's over, isn't it?

I watched radioshows before I even watched their main channel videos. they were SO good in that role; i think their prowess at live stuff is vastly underrated. to me, it's also where their personalities shine through the most, and their personal chemistry and dynamic. i can't hide that i'm really disappointed, but i hope that whatever is next is something i can still support them in.

edit: well shit, this deadened the pain of radioNOMORE

that is something i would join tumblr for, for the sole purpose of adding a note so he potentially reads it. i think it's important fan and creator lines stay open like this on a more personal level, especially with the direction of youtube. and if meet and greets are something they possibly find fulfilling but also exhausting on the introverted end of the scale, i hope they know their sincere attempts at connecting are appreciated. add this one to the fabled Phil/girl with self-harm scars story and Dan's last response from the tumblr q+a.

My honest reaction to Phil updating his entire twitter:

Image

This would otherwise be very exciting, but I echo everyone else who sees this as the end of R1. That was my favorite thing they did. In fact, I loved it so much because I felt like it made them so much more legitimate? Is that weird? Like if anyone asked who they were.. "Oh they're like... funny sketch comedy/radio DJ dudes." And the connections they god from it.... sigh. IDK. Plus when the hell else am I gonna get to over-analyze their "casual" behavior around each other? :cry:

Otherwise, you go Phil-coco! Make that rebrand happen. Work. That. Updo.
