Jeez, imagine how offended Phil must've been. I can only guess how much sucking up Dan had to do after that
Fixed it for you
Damn you beat me to it
Also, I'm cautiously joining you on team 'low-key optimistic about the post-doc branding and potential coming out', but honestly I don't want to get my hopes up to just have them crushed
Now, back to lurking and studying until we get the next gift video
Uh-oh... here comes ickle with the unpopular opinions (opinions? expectations might be a better fit here) again! (btw, I proved on skype during the LS last night that I'm every bit as psychic as Philly on a good day, so natch! )
I… don’t think the lesters sr. will be with d&p on weds night, they’ll be in full work/tweet/social media mode i think… although that's a much less cute image.
I’m still thinking we’re not going to see dan emerging in the mornings if we’ve already seen phil coming out of what they know we know is “the bedroom” - my bet is he'll be up, washed and dressed before the cameras get switched on.
And I don’t think we’ll get any overt anti/phan proof in the doc, mainly because they’ll be too conscious of being accused of baiting if they do or hiding stuff if they don’t… I think we’ll get our normal dose of ambiguity.
IckleMissMayhem's evil fic writing alter ego. :twisted:

Nah fight me. It makes sense. No way is a coincidence they are visiting this week

Phil also said he was being social and seeing friends this week, which made me think they were having some kind of small screening or premiere type thing for it. If it's not Wednesday night then I think that'll happen at some point this week.
I don't actually think they'll be tweeting throughout it though. They said they were going to wait a few days to have their joint livestream so I suspect they'll just let people watch it the first night.

Hey everyone!
Just wanted to take a moment to promo two threads here that I made a while back to reserve a place to discuss the tatinof show and documentary after they’re released on Wednesday:
Basically, I want to make it easier for the people who won’t be able to watch the film+documentary right away seeing as they are not the same as regular free YT videos that can be watched at any time.
Plus I think it’s easier to ignore two whole separate threads designated to the tatinof stuff (until you’re ready to read it) than to read through the main thread and have to skip a post, skip part of a post, etc. due to constant spoilers and in-depth tatinof discussions that would normally be mixed in with everything. This way you won’t have to filter through endless posts in the main thread.
I'm a little concerned about this, now we're gonna have a lot to talk about spread across two separate threads and basically nothing to talk about on the main thread until possibly Phil's ls on sunday, but even that is probably going to be about tatinof and/or the docu. I just don't really feel like this is a great idea thoughts?

I think they'll probably be contractually required to do at least some promo on twitter on Wednesday, but it might not be as extensive as IckleMissMayhem imagines, and not incompatible with a live screening with friends/family. Tweets can be drafted in advance, can't they?
I interpreted their comments as them keeping their twitters spoiler free until the weekend to allow people who aren't free from 7-9pm BST on Wednesday a chance to watch it.
Did they promise that the daily gifts would be uploaded on 7 pm - UK time or am I just remembering wrongly? It's 2 am here and I really wanna sleep soon.
If they do have a get together for watching TATINOF and the docu I hope they tweet a picture of it. I really want Phil's family + Dan pics. Sorry. Ignore me. I'm just being phan
In all seriousness, I'm very determined to go into the coming months/year with no expectations from them because I feel like I should know better after 4 years. Even when Dan promises me a shitstorm it ends up in disappointment, because I'm boooored (though I enjoy #Busgate as always). Whatever happens I will care about it when the time is here, whether that's bus sleeping arrangements, rebranding or even a coming out.
Behind the door there is no bedroom. There is no bed. There is but a gaping hole into space and Phil is laughing at all of us from the astrosphere he accesses with his psychic powers. I find that more believable than anything happening .
this is where all the tatinof teasers and stuff will be posted for the next two days ( i think, thats what dan just said on tumblr anyway.) There is some unseen header artwork, and some kinda eh gifs lol. not sure if they made them, or took them from the community and didn't credit (wouldnt be the first time).
This tumblr is so cute, starry sky looks straight out of Nyan cat and I'm just loving Dan in blue jeans Hilarious that half of it is just having all the gifs organised.

Going to be honest and say that this ‘gift’ is also a bit disappointing.
It's pretty cute, but I’m still waiting for some deleted scenes or something like that.

This blog confuses me
I click on all the images and it just sends me to the same videos so I'm guessing no secret content there for anyone who will obsessively scroll through the posts
I'll just wait until you guys mention stuff
also thank god I got paid by work just in time for the documentary although I gave 3/4 of my salary to my parents bc I owed them money damn being broke sucks
Edit: was that tinfoil hat emoji always there and I never noticed or did it get added since I started posting it?
