They're both control freaks, I regularly marvel at the miracle that is them not killing each other. Two perfectionists rarely go well together.

"Why hellu thar" and "hi there" had the same url. As proven by bye on gg. He apparently just changed the name at some point. I don't know if it is possible to edit out some parts of the video after it's been uploaded without taking it down and changing the url. My guess is no, so I think the boxers were just for the thumbnail.

Old topic, and it might have been discussed before, but I watched the first episode of Magi and thought this was a cute paralell to Dan and Phil.
The Aladdin character is granted one all powerful wish, with the power of the universe to enternal life as options given by the genie. Aladdin only has a simple wish though- to have a friend.
Also, Aladdin is obsessed with boobs. Man boobs/girl boobs. All boobs. "I still like boobs" Howell. Never said it had to be girl boobs...

'WHY HULLO THAR' and "hi there" is the same video, he just renamed it.
Edit: Cue me posting the exact same thing daphenaxa already beat me to, haha.
Here's his tweet filming the video + SERIOUS BUSINESS that went up the same day on his main channel.
("Tomorrow", lol. It took him 11 days to actually upload them, good to know he hasn't changed.)
He uploaded both those on Feb 27th and the next Dini video (Aeroplane Adventures) the day after, Feb 28th, just as he promised in the description.
It IS unusual for Dan to have a video thumbnail that's not in the actual video, and the tags reference a scene that simply. isn't. there. Very frustrating. It's definitely the same video, but perhaps he edited the video as he renamed it to cut a part out...? Youtube does allow you to cut parts out of videos you've already uploaded so it's not impossible I don't think.
Someone with a fresh set of eyes feel free to do some digging on this because bye and I are sooooo done with that bloody video I s2g. I'd love some sort of clear answer to everything pls.
I just prioritized reading up on the 50+ pages I missed instead of watching the new videos, what am I doing. Nice seeing you guys again, will catch up later but now i will zzz as i have gotten about 2 hours sleep this week x] < 3

ohhhhh mystery. do you think he could have been scared of maybe the video getting reported and taken down? (as he had the one where he pretended the blue lava lamp was his dick lol) or maybe he was too ashamed of the clic-bait.
also yeahhhhh welcome back!!!

this forum moves so quickly????? how do you have the time
Alright, mildly OT but throwback to like 6 pages ago and who Dan follows on twitter, who the boys follow on instagram.
i spent an entire chem lecture going through both their 'following' lists and was genuinely confused by some of the people they follow. That being said, I've never seen them active on instagram aside from posting their own photos, they've never popped up in the 'so and so liked 8 photos' bit if ya feel, so I really can't conclude how much they actually do use it.
(whole thing under the cut bc this turned out to be v long)
Some stats:
Dan) Following: 58
People he follows who aren't youtubers/musicians/actors/models (or somewhere along those lines): nasagoddard, sophiehellyer, stationcdrkelly, kaitakesphotos, myspacetom, stephen_, ricothezonbie
Theories:
1) nasagoddard and stationcdrkelly are accounts of space stations/astronauts and they have really sick photos of galaxies, understandable, I'm sure Dan has said something about being fascinated with outerspace before, it fits the persona
2) myspacetom bc he is a shitposting-meme-loving-fuck at heart
3) ricothezonbie is a misspelling of ricothezombie, who, when googled, is Rick Genest, the man who is completely tattooed, a model, and a spectacle in his own right a few years back. fyi his real handle is rickgenestofficial, Danny get with the program
4) i have no idea who stephen_ is, I'm assuming it's a mutual friend of both Dan and Phil as they both follow him, and outside of his first name there's no other identifying info on his page. That being said, a majority of his pictures are geotagged at Dublin, Ireland, assuming he lives there. just had a thought and did some looking 3sixty5days, his first name is Stephen, right? (yes) and he lives in Dublin, right? (also, yes). I think it's an unofficial/unverified account of his for artistic photos, i'm an idiot, NEXT
5) kaitakesphotos???? sophiehellyer??????? aesthetic???? thoughts??????
not specified earlier but still interesting/notable: following all of 1D, kim kardashian, givenchy, ricardo tisci, kanye doesn't have instagram, but we all know dan would hop on that ship asap
Some more stats (really messed up ones):
Phil) Following: 55
People he follows who aren't social personalities in general: sophiehellyer (wowow i didn't notice the first time), kaitakesphotos (how did i miss this one too), mememolly, themersk, lomasca, savagenoodles, eschewal, ashleesuv, tuskalexander, mikestoke, alparrington, robertjamescook, tomcoolio, rachelbache, ffxrules, vixylou86
Older/currently more or less inactive youtubers he follows: xfawnx, lexcanroar, crazycade, maddoxhardcore, tehwebguy
Theories:
1) Because instagram shows the people you follow in reverse chronological order, relatively speaking Phil started following sophiehellyer and kaitakesphotos much more recently than Dan, with the two accounts near the start of the list for Phil, while closer to the middle for Dan. ?????? are they friends? did Dan show Phil some accounts with photography he admired? who knows
2) mememolly works at a media consultancy agency in NYC
themersk is a designer, filmmaker, animator, writer, illustrator, creative person based out of NYC
alparrington (private account wow okay) co-founded a company that allows other companies/talent (mainly media from what i gather) gain followers and activity and general internet buzz. Notable clients include BBC 3, Netflix, Redbull, and Mattel. Compant based out of London.
savagenoodles works in Leadership and Development (often called Talent Development), from Leeds.
ashleesuv works for a creative production agency. London.
tuskalexander works for a digital agency in Northern England. Writes for magazines, newspapers, does other projects, idk.
lomasca is a "social media marketing exec' out of London. (twitter just let me know phil follows him there as well)
Pattern? Secret interest? Friends from the postprodction at York days? What's good, Phillip
3) eschewal is just one photo that he hasn't liked, and a bunch of phandom members commenting on it 'why phil why' personally i think dan's meme persona is rubbing off on him just a touch
4) tehwebguy is the co-founder of Summoner's Con, which if I recall correctly, Cat is the other co-founder of! He also co-founded playlist live (wowie) and sovndwave which is a library of royalty free music for youtubers to use in their videos
5) tomcoolio, just sounds familiar, idk
6) rachelbache works for the New Zealand Herald as writer. Lives in NZ.
7) ffxrules takes a lot of pictures of his abs. None of his photos are liked by Phil.
8) vixylou86 has a blog, assuming she's a friend of phil's, born in 1986.
this boy is so confusing

off-topic but this is just a little blurb of thought i had while rewatching some sims videos earlier after the new one came out
i find it really interesting how slip into heteronormativity w/dil's love life ?? they make off-handed comments about flirting w/males (ex. saying the dil's going to end up w/preston on christmas eve if i recall correctly ??) but never actually even flirted with or pursued anything w/a male character. (although correct me if im wrong does anyone know of any times they had dil genuinely interact romantically w/another guy ??)
i wonder if they considered a non-straight relationship an option, seeing as DAPG has more of an older audience or at least are seen as more suitable for more mature material (which im assuming bc phil seems more open to swearing or at least more comfortable being himself as opposed to his main channel, where he doesn't swear bc Children) or if they simply subconsciously slipped right into 'well we made a boy so now we have to find a girl for him to date'
like dil is constantly referred to as a combination of dan and phil, with both of them even commenting on how he 'takes after them' in certain ways or inherited an individual trait of theirs and they do insinuate dil could have attraction for a male by saying things like 'he could have a girlfriend/boyfriend' (thought that might just be them being generally open to lgbt things and not discriminating ??) yet they never act on this insinuation i dunno very interesting indeed

Does it bother anyone else when Dan calls Tabitha a hoe? (around 10:10). He did it last Sims episode also, and I just find it rather gross. Whatever, he can just be problematic sometimes (b4 anyone gets on my case about being sjw, its more that it just bothers me. Hoe is a bit of a slur, and I just don't like to see people, or animated people, referred to in that disrespectful way)
I don't find it offensive like some people here. Idk it might be the way Dan has grown up with it. If like me, slurs (not racial or homophobic ofc) were thrown around the playground and said to anyone. People called any genders bitch and hoes so maybe that it was it was like for Dan. (but this was at least 10 years ago of course)
Not defending him in anyway just another side to the story. maybe someone should say something to him in the liveshow on Tuesday and he might try to stop it. If he was talking about a real person, people would be more up in arms about it.
But if it made the young phandom start to throw the slurs around to real life people. I think we would have a major problem.

I loved the newest Sims video, it was really funny and the way they were thrown off guard twice and their reactions to that were super interesting to watch. Also regarding the alien abduction (has this been mentioned before? I only read the last three pages because I don't have the time to go through all of them):
When I played Sims 2, my scientist (male) was abducted once and when he came back, he was pregnant with an alien baby. I looked it up for the Sims 4 now, and male pregnancies can happen again but it doesn't mention women becoming pregnant. So chances are, Tabitha might be pregnant with an alien baby. That'd be interesting to watch...

Add me to the "I don't give two shits about Dil, but I enjoy TS4 nevertheless" and as such, this is right up there as (one of) my fave TS vids.
I love the fact that they're just bludgeoning their way through having little to no idea what they're doing, but we get so many "moments" from D&P every time they play this game I don't even care.
Dan's reactions to the plate, the fire and the abduction were so genuine. I didn't need the opening screech at 7:06am, (that's my own stupid fault though!) but I knew to expect it after his initial reaction to the abduction, so...!
Not going time stamp hunting, but did anyone else notice Phil's copying of Dan's reactions after the abduction. Little glance before covering his face and grabbing the back of his neck? Really jarred me, especially after the contrast in Hazel's vid yesterday. Oh Phil.

Isn't themersk the girl phil did a video with when he went to nyc BD (before dan)? The one where he wears her top.
Tomcoolio is a youtuber (? Was?) in the gary c crowd and seemed to be chummy with both back in daily booth times.
Tuskalexander is phil's cousin
(Phil also follows one of dan's college friends but dan doesn't lmao this is why people apparently text phil to check in on dan)
I loves the dil video they were so overwhelmed lmao
Looking forqard to the next one just to see if they get chatty and share more pf their spa adventures (dan having a spa day with his mum and grandma, phil's awkward back massage in cali, and more herbal steam room shenanigans from vegas)

Hey! It seems like there's some cool archival/detective work going on, which is exciting! Can't wait to catch up on that.
For now I just want to say that the Sims video was hilarious. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I love the Sims videos; they're my favorite gaming channel videos. So I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to good old Dil.
But this episode was particularly random and funny. The alien abduction was unreal. I'm with jaej: I like Dan's yelling. I find it funny.
I just want to mention one moment that stuck out to me: at like 10:33 or so, when Dan talks about the triceratops by the fireplace, he sounds like 19-year-old Dan. Something about his speaking patterns has changed significantly since then, but when I heard him say that sentence it was really weird; he sounded like he does it in early videos. Idk. I liked it.
Also, his hair. Yes.

Dan, please:
1. Stop screaming so much.
2. Stop calling Tabitha a 'hoe', just stick to your sporks and turnips, okay?
3. Push your hair back more often. For science. (Just kidding. Kind of.)
I loved the video as a whole, they're hilarious when they're confused. Lots of glamorous face expressions I'll put some screenshots under a spoiler 'cause I can't restrain myself
+ 'nose pervert' bonus
Also I really like Phil in recent DAPG videos, I don't know if something has changed or I've got more fond of him in general, anyway

Forgot to mention these two very important points
- @ that screenshot of dan daaaaaamn those thighs are thicccccc very nice. He's so beautiful and i can only hope Mr Lester reminds him daily . I also love Dan a lot because he's the kind of person who calls his genitals "naughty area" and says "making love" when talking about sex.
- lex (lexcanroar) isn't innactive, it's just that her main channel is named differently (tyrannosauruslexx)
@ironic those are some inspirational screenshots i kind of want to make an edit of that part of the video in slow motion with some dramatic classical music.

Agreed he should stick to his sporks and turnips.
Also THANK UOU for these images. Confused D&P truly make the best faces.
And Dan. That nose. Ugh. I also find his ears and hair super attractive on that picture lol

I finally caught up with your peeps woo~ That was tiresome I was literally reading all the time including cross the roads, which is dangerous, kids don't learn.
Re the sims video, yes, finally something interesting happening, I enjoyed the surprise but I do wish it was Dil who got abducted cuz I'm curious to see how Deppy will handle male pregnancy. But non the less, the episode was loud and persona-heavy, but thanks to all the accidents I have lotta fun.
Re the stinky hoe comment. It did made me go "em... :/" for a minute. I know he didn't mean anything, he is not misogynistic, but the fact he used the word "hoe" in a derogatory way merely for the comedy factor, really makes me feel a little disappointed. I know he used to be problematic but now he seems to be all "gender role is the worst, i'm a feminist" so i really wished he'd known better.
Re Phil is in control. I personally don't think Dan and Phil are the same type of control freak, Dan seems to be the kinda person who always try to gain more control, but Phil, he is just naturally in control. Phil has a firm grip on his life and he will never let it go. Dan, on the other hand, when he is losing grip of his life, he tries to empower himself by controlling his surroundings.
I enjoy Phil and Hazel's chemistry very much, but I don't have much hope for their upcoming collab, because let's face it, Phil's only gonna be more in persona when it comes to the video on his own channel.
Re Dan's hairline. LOL Dan is having a descending hairline, just as Phil also have a descending hairline, as someone mentioned before (probably jeaj). #Hairbroforlive , suck that Caspar.

Same tbh but is Dan going bald??!!
This totally got missed but, he IS 24 now (almost 25) And It could be that his hairline is receding a bit but It doesn't mean that he will completely go bald/It wont stop receding. It just happens with age... Some people get gray hairs when they are 18 =X, I have a "bald spot"(not completely bald) on one temple.
I've noticed the receding hairline too...
some pictures under here to compare his hairline during the years....
2010 Jamaica (couldn't find a better pic)
2013
2016
Usually hair loss it's more prominent where hair are parted, considering Dan has always parted his hair the same way I think it's quite normal...
Anyway don't worry.... I know many guys the same age as Dan with serious baldness problem, in comparison this is nothing....
My suggestion: stop with the straightening, at least for a while, would help to not stress his hair...(7+ years of hair straightening almost everyday is a lot of stress and damage!!!)
yes, I'm an hair nerd...

I think it's that in "I forgot that we had a little triceratops on the bar" he pronounces the "t" at the end of "that" quite strongly, and that's probably fairly unusual in his speech now as he's more relaxed on camera, while when he first made videos he would have made more of an effort to sound ar-ti-cu-late, so he would have been using that pronunciation more often.
When he says "hows about we activate all the moodlet things" at 10:24 he definitely doesn't pronounce the "t" at the end of "about", "activate" and "moodlet" anywhere near the same extent. So "that" is probably just a random outlier.

Maybe it's just how it is to be a Dil's girlfriend - you'll be called t-bag, stinky hoe and other nice words by one of his parents.

I really liked how everything went wrong in the Sims video. The fact that they started out the video thinking it was going to be a spa day and ended up with Dil starting a fire and Tabitha getting abducted I loved how they didn't know how to react to any of it
Regarding Dan's hoe comments, I live in an area where the words "hoe" and "thot" are constantly thrown around, and it gets the people laughing as well. The thing is it’s the context that makes it funny not the word itself, people find slut shaming hilarious. People find exposing “thots” hilarious. So to me finding the word hoe and thot funny means you find slut shaming funny. I know Dan means no harm when he says “thot” and “hoe”, but it still really bothers me. I expected him to know better. I expected him to know that "hoe" really isn't funny and by saying it even if it's towards a fictional character he is kind of condoning those type of comments. I'm sure if someone let's him know that it's offending people he will stop.
Also, is it just me or were there more "close-up" shots of Phil's face than usual in this Sims video? It looked like Dan was having fun zooming in on Phil's face's during editing?

Is it possible that the stinky hoe is some kind of meme/trend that we don't know about? I think Dan these days, not saying i'm blaming kanye, I think he just use too many black people slangs, it's weird. Like how he say par-tay instead of party, say shiz instead of shit. Not saying he's appropriating black culture tho. But it's weird. No offense to white people, but I think he's just too white, and too british. Imagine if shane dawson do that, nobody would even notice.

Often times you can tell who edited the video by seeing whose face gets zoomed in on more. If Dan edits we get more shots of Phil’s face close up, and when Phil edits it is the other way around. Quite cute.
I also agree with the people on Dan’s hair, when he pushed it aside . Both Dan and Phil would do well to get rid of the fringe, but we all know that is not likely to happen.

There's the end of the 'Dan secretly went to Florida with Phil' conspiracy theory.
