Dan & Phil Part 28: Possibly very gay

[papierklemmen]

[offtopic]I'm usually/always a lurker but i read this on twitter and i'm really curious concerning a ask: dan and phil went to phil's friends wedding together recently. im not going to show a picture or point it out to anyone. it was on social media, ppl found it, and obvs it was like that. nothing more, no big hype.
I don't remember hearing about this *maybe because i wasn't really active at the time*. Can someone provide more context (btw if i do something wrong in terms of how to send this messages and stuff i'm sorry but it's my first time[/offtopic]

Also was that #phoug, please...even a little....

Re the deppy and Ytbers: I didnt know Evan was going to act like a salty bitch but since he did it goes to show how almost all YTbers feel about them. They have the secret formula that is an interesting history, cute face, great personalities that aren't boring, and a cloud of ambiguity. Whats important to note is that their fanbase wasn't the first to form even though its always been very dedicated. In 2012 when all the other gleamer fanbases formed, the Phandom was still relatively young and broken into two yet, over time, it slowly accumulated more and more while the others died down. I would say 2015 was the height of the phandom in terms of how many new people joined and its been growing ever since at a steady rate. That's not saying its going to keep growing because even tho my ass is stuck here, many casual fans will move on. I think that's why they were quick to monetize now and also establish themselves a little more. Now Im hoping and praying they expand from YT and maybe join BBC again.

Does anyone else get the impression that with PJ and Pewds is trying to recreate a little of the phanbase? Like already a lot of us love them together because we are already emotionally attached to PJ but some aspects of their friendship remind me of deppys, except the..uhhh..only friendship part, ahem.

[papierklemmen]

soz!

anyway, on the topic of moving: what if d&p go corporate - get an office, hire crew and assistants? we've seen many youtubers go this way over the years, i wonder what's stopping them (other than their atrocious schedule)

edit:

lol i was suprised when in that best friend challenge pj asked what his & pewds' ship name would be - wasn't he uncomfortable with people shipping kickthestickz?

i apologise! could you please remove my post? thank you.

Maybe it's because they're both in established relationships that are publicly known so it's easier to joke around? While with Chris, everyone knew that Chris was single (was PJ still with his ex or Sophie during the Fantastic Foursome era?), so it must have been harder to joke about it because they had no safety net. And another thing could be that he saw hard people ship Deppy so he must've been scared and a little uncomfortable if the same happened with him and Chris? I'm really just speculating. Somebody who's a Pj expert please share your thoughts.

I sincerely hope they don't, one of the main things I love about Deppy is that all of their videos have that homemade feel, their editing and such is so personal to them. The day I watch a DINOF video that doesn't have a flash of comic sans half way through will be a very sad day indeed. I think they're proud of the fact that they do it all themselves, I certainly am. So yeah they have a terrible schedule because of this, but I'm sure their content wouldn't be so 'them' and I reckon they'd lose a few viewers as a result.

On the other hand, what's to say they don't have an office and assistants? We only recently discovered Marianne if I'm not mistaken. It definitely would be hard to imagine corporate D&P, it's just not their style.

There's a lot of joking around with shipping especially around youtubers (basically whenever some people make a collab they talk about what their ship name would be ) but I agree that the difference to Deppy (and maybe also Chris and PJ because they were close friends and Chris came out as bi?) is that it's normally just that: making fun of it. While with these two there was always the massive backstory and closeness that makes it more difficult to navigate around in a joking way. Same reason why Dan got so aggressive in 2012 imo. It was too realistic to laugh it off.
Also maybe PJ didn't want to be seen as "the other gay couple" of the fantastic foursome (because if people thought Deppy were together it doesn't take much to see them as two couples hanging out). So yeah, basically the more realistic a ship looks the more uncomfortable it is for the people involved if they aren't actually together

And PJ and Pewds is oviously a crackship, they both have girlfriends so

I highly doubt that will ever happen. I don't think Marianne has anything to do with their videos. Dan talked about being a control freak and complained about the ideas of people who wanted to do their work for them (just think about the original lyrics of "The Internet Is Here"). I don't think their brand allows them to go corporate, if that makes sense. It would have a negative impact on their content for sure. And even if that wasn't the case, they wouldn't want it anyway. If they considered at the beginning, I don't think they still do it now, after working with more people for TATINOF. They might get help with stuff they can't do themselves, but they won't get a crew for their videos. The only thing I could vaguely imagine would be an office for the two of them and even that is very unlikely.

okay i'm going out to dinner now, so i won't be able to reply to personal messages for a couple of hours. @isabella, i can't pm you because you have messages off or something? ok thanks.

sad i cant ever watch phil's liveshow live on sundays because i have family commitments. but i guess i have something to look forward too later

[RiriPandaHeart2]

It's near reckoning time. No tweet that there's no liveshow. There's hope yet.

Edit: He's online on YouNow already.

"I'm rubbish at Rock Paper Scissors" Phil's documentary busgate rock paper scissors win confirmed lie

[Catallena]

Hm people tried really hard to keep D&P attendance of that wedding on the down low out of respect for the wedding couple and the fact that the pic came from a private account, so I wonder who leaked... That's not cool.

well all the regulars here knew about it and that's at least 50 people, it was inevitability gonna leak, honestly i'm surprised it lasted a 'secret' for so long

phil liveshow highlights anyone? should i bother watching it later?

[RiriPandaHeart2]

Well we did get a hint of moving again. I didn't write it down so I might be remembering this very wrongly but somebody said that he should just buy a house to have more storage and then he said I should (he said something afterward but my net froze). I'm sad about the "I" in that though. Still didn't remove my but it's like a jolt. If anyone remembers what he said better (and didn't have crappy net) please relay what he really said. Thanks in advanced!

[violet-writer]

i enjoyed that- he seemed pleased with life and got a very nice vibe from him.
AND another moving reference! (he said, after being prompted, he should move as he needs more storage) i'm starting to wonder if this is some type of BAADER-MEINHOF PHENOMENON

(its so sweet that phil is Breakfast Maker in their house. Dan is a lucky dude )

[nephilimcat]

Such a nice ls, just listening to Phil talking about stuff is enough to make me happy Thoughts:

- he feels like he's being watched by younow staff
- because life is shit, my internet doesn't work
- probably missed something interesting, but now it works

- of course he lost because he's rubbish at rock paper scissors ... i'm not going to say what i'm thinking because i'm over it but
- phil impersonating "hello internet"
- undertale week after spooky week confirmed
- there will be dil too (didn't say when)
- papyrus voice
- he watched a musical with his parents - was dan there too? of course he was
- he still can't do danger men at work
- eye update: -3.5 now (finally know this! his eyesight is better than mine) and new glasses that he'll show us soon (yesss)
- "should try everything if you can" inspirational
- "get dan" - "dan is a busy fellow" dan: *browses on tumblr*
- i love how they talk about the same things in their ls a lot because they basically do everything together
- something secret is happening (is it something solo and has to do with new form digital maybe?), also seems like a solo project
- "i've got to get up at 5"
- he wants to put a new shelf in the flat, that's not the moving direction but then "buy a house with lots of storage" - "i probably should". what do you want!?
- maybe another tumblr tag at some point
- wow, phil's advice about presenting in front of the class was very good (you should think about the fact that everyone is worrying about their own projects or daydreaming)
- "get dan off tumblr" - "i'm sorry, i don't have that power" sure
- "what do you think is at the edge of the universe" interesting to hear his thoughts on that
- phil is too clumsy to be computer generated (same)
- why do people always say "final premiums", "go away", "bye", etc? don't need to remind them to leave, maybe one day they'd forget the time but those people make that impossible
- pinof 8 towards the end of november
- i miss him already

[taetaewl]

So both of them are too busy to come around and just say hi to us when the other is on Younow? Why is that a thing now? Before they would at least show a hand. (Don't mind me, im a bit salty today)
I always enjoy watching Phil's ls and today was no exception Wounder what they are doing tomorrow, maybe another Standup2Cancer related thing?
I guess both of them are not going on a holiday anytime soon... or a holiday that we would not get to know of lol
Find it cute that Phil is preparing breakfast for both of them at the same time, looks to me that it might be a common pattern at the dnp househod

[SquishPhan]

Really enjoyed this live show. He gave opinions and was a bit sassy, great combo.
- Loved how over Alberta’s death Phil was. Not sure if I trust him with a dog now.
- Of course Dil is a diva because both Dan and Phil are. Tell us more about this Phil.
- Please Phil, my eyesight is way worse than yours.
- But yeah it is hard finding glasses that fit you. Excited to see his new glasses.
- Phil just admitting that he knows what Dan talks about during his live shows.
- Dan and Phil filming something tomorrow, but it is a secret for now. Them with their bloody secrets.
- Another moving mention. Just buy that house together already boys.
- Phil does not have the power to remove Dan from Tumblr.
- He should really stop roasting people, he is not good at it.
- Some deep talk with Phil. I enjoyed it.
- Phil really is so clumsy. And takes care of breakfast in the mornings.
- He and Dan might go see Fantastic Beast and Where To Find Him. Though he is keeping his expectations low.
- Wow we got a 50+ minute live show, it is a miracle.

"Dan's busy" - just as my phone lights up with a tumblr notif. Classic.

Wonder what the super-secret early-start project is? Must be something important if it's getting these two up and out for 6:30am! (Please please please something BBC-related.)

Two cereal bowls. Of course.

Youtube Rewind, maybe? (I saw someone else suggest that as a possibility.)

Thanks! You made me search for the baader-meinhof phenomenon. It's an interesting thing to search.

I can't believe I forgot about the cereal incident. That was domestic AF. I was low-key wishing we'd see 2 bowls of cereal and we did. So I was a happy little about that.

His story about his eyesight getting worse and needing new glasses is super relate-able to me because post-grad is making my eyesight grow worse and worse (and limited sleep + more than 15 hours of the day in front of the computer so...). I do hope he shows his new glasses soon. I'm excited to see him in it! I'm sure he looks handsome.

Him receiving a game from one of his BBC workmates is making me renew hope that they'd return to BBC. Deppy

Also, I really hope he & Dan go to the Harry Potter premiere. I wanna see them in suits.

I wonder if Dan was with the Lesters when they watched the musical. I hope he was.

I also love that Phil relies on Martyn for the merch info. I want more brother interaction between them. This little tidbits about the Lesters interacting with each other make me happy for an unknown reason. (I want more family anecdotes!)

That's all I remember. So I'll leave the other highlights to the other people.

Oh yeah. RIP Alberta. Phil didn't seem too crushed though.

I thought maybe something to do with YTR(ed - UK launch...) but Dan seemed to be hinting about an upcoming LA trip so... IDEK.

[eevee]

Kinda boring liveshow :\

I heard him do a hello internet imitation, but I missed the visual ): I'm glad someone mentioned it though, so now he can properly torment Dan!

Rainbow rage looks like a cute game, and the fact that dan and phil play board-ish games alone makes me so happy. But who tf can't remember the colors of the rainbow? They fade into each other? Like red is similar to orange, it has to go to orange before it can go to yellow? Just me?

When he said he hasn't seen any new animes, I called him a bitch ass liar (internally, not in the chat). Then someone actually did call him a bitch ass liar and pointed out yuri on ice, and he admitted that he had indeed watched it with Dan. Can't fool us Phil!

"How was your pizza on thursday" was probably code for "Did dan like the homoerotic AHS scene" but he missed the memo

he said he saw a pic of a "sexy male model" does that count as attraction?

They are playing the same app game, of course they are, because why would they ever do anything separately.

They have to get up at 6:30? Surely their manager would be like "nah, our talent doesnt do things at redic hours, soz"

Sad he didn't say "we should" after "buy a house" and instead said "I should" but whatevs

Fin.
