Looks like Dan is implying something like that on Twitter.... My, what a suggestive tweet for top of the pagealittledizzy wrote: 8:38 - If that were under Dil's bed they would 100% have made a tentacle porn jokes.

heck the fireman's lift (sort of) in Pinof8 was quite something.Alrighty. So. Call me a professional party pooper, but I'm like... 98% sure Dan's whole thing here is to point out both the fact that we should ~stay hydrated~ but also that he's taking a real swig of water and holding the cup properly. Because the whole of phandom just called them both out for their weird af drinking habits.alittledizzy wrote:9:38 - Dan eyefucking the camera while sipping water. Ok...ay.
Oh, that was definitely his intention, and I appreciate the attempt.rizzo wrote:Alrighty. So.

But I love that all of that came out with him looking like he's turning the whole moment into a sexual situation.
That's an interesting idea! I never knew about his prank. The main reason I would doubt it though, is because if it didn't go over well then, then I'm not sure why he'd repeat it a little over a year later? I'd assume that he would have been like "Okay this didn't go as I intended, lets not do it again"twix wrote:Thanks to everyone who responded to my last post.

Since the conversation evolved into some voldy talk for awhile there: something I never seem to see people on here/elsewhere discuss as a point in the "it was intended to be a prank" column is that this wouldn't have been the first time phil filmed a prank in a similar vein. Sometime in 2008-- I think when the boxxy stuff was going on b/c lots of people were responding to/clowning on it and it would have been topical-- he uploaded a video wherein he confessed that he was really an American named Kyle and that phil was just a character he made up (basically the inverse of one of the first youtube popcorn munching dramas). It did not go over well, iirc; lots of ppl took it at face value and left angry/confused comments bc it didn't make much sense with no context. Phil deleted the video shortly & i don't think has ever mentioned it. So from that angle I see how he could make a video like voldy as a prank and then <$time_period> later realize it was a bad idea.
ah true, that could be a part of the domestic feeling too no "acting" just bants so it felt closer/domesticfondsmiles wrote:i found the first half or so incredibly wonderful too, and i think for me it was phil! phil seemed to have less persona while playing, at least in the beginning, those comments about being allowed to make old references and the stories he told, it all seemed so natural, and i really really loved that.awkwardly wrote:the first half of the video was very pleasant. can't explain why, it just felt very calm and domestic to me.
I'm pretty sure he did mention it somewhere. I just can't recall which video. I'm sure it was a collab with Dan though. He mentioned pretending to be an American who was pretending to be British for fun and had people believing that video. He said sorry to the people who still believed he was an American named Kyle. I'm pretty sure this video I'm talking about was done when they were at the Manchester apartment still.twix wrote: Sometime in 2008-- I think when the boxxy stuff was going on b/c lots of people were responding to/clowning on it and it would have been topical-- he uploaded a video wherein he confessed that he was really an American named Kyle and that phil was just a character he made up (basically the inverse of one of the first youtube popcorn munching dramas).

i feel like i rememeber him mentioning it in his collab with Strawburry17 in like summer 2015?

Is it?? I've only seen it used to mock people who get irrationally angry at things.000dia000 wrote:

It was nice to see their reactions and choices with Dab's wardrobe. There are a lot of cute tshirt designs that I usually don't think much of in my own game so I'm glad they like them. That monster under the bed turns up every fricking night, it'll drive them nuts if they play the game the way I do, days of play kind of thing. I've got a few families with lots of kids and it's constant monster-spraying all night long. The alien abduction was hilarious, I hope Sims 4 is like 2 and has every adult man get pregnant every single time, I loved the science bros family in Sims 2 with two alien kids between the three of them.

It's Tifa's Theme (from the FFVII soundtrack, not Advent Children)!Viofish wrote:when you realize the music from the v-day video is not "interrupted by fireworks" but actually "holding my thoughts in my heart." they sound so similar
Edit: actually I think its a "tifa's theme" in the v-day video... someone listen to all three and tell me they're not the same song.
Thank you! Somebody also commented on the video with this, I will go buy them all some lampsloonyradish wrote:

You haven't?! Yeah it's a regular thing, it's meant to be for kids so that their balls don't just roll into the gutters (bc they obvs don't have enough strength to give the ball enough velocity to go down in a straight-ish line). However, I'm a terrible person and my balls usually zig zag all over the place so I still put the bumpers up so if my ball goes into it, it bounces off wildly and eventually hits some pins lmao.lurker wrote:i enjoyed the video, too, especially the first half which was very pleasant to watch. i agree that they might want to give the freeze ray a break, but i understand the temptation. kind of hoping they make an episode of dab and evan hanging out or maybe a tabitha-centered one, to give us a little break from dil as well. i'd also be 100% here for a home renovation one. i don't think i'd like dil to be pregnant now -- i'd grown a bit tired of toddler!dab just as they were aging him up, so i feel like getting back into pregnancy and childcare gameplay might not work that well with the pacing of the series
can anyone who plays the sims themselves explain to me why so many alien abductions are happening? are they right and it's due to the communication thing in their garden, or is it random?
also what did they mean when they talked about bowling with bumpers up as teenagers? the thing that appeared when it was dab's turn? to prevent the ball from rolling off? is that a regular thing because i have literally never seen this before and i'm confused.
I think he meant how in games like Skyrim you get arrested if you steal something or hurt someone, go to jail or get a bounty on your head for a while.LtrllySusan wrote:Was anyone else really curious what Dan was gonna say about Bethesda games/Skyrim during the bowling segment?
i really haven't, the bowling place i went to as a kid def didn't have these, you'd just have to grow up! and grow some muscles! so this is life-changing news for me. i don't remember seeing them as a teenager either, but that might be because everyone was ~too cool~ for them then. anyways, thanks for the explanation! that bit in the video makes a lot more sense now.saffarinda wrote:You haven't?!
