My DCs are big fans.

At first I was in different. Ignored him. Kinda was irritated.

But I think I have been whittled down to actually finding him attractive now and quite enjoy listening to his channel in the background.

Wtf is wrong with me?!

I hear you.

He looks so young, too, which doesn't help.

Rriot · 30/06/2017 15:21

Seek help.

I don't even have dc but enjoy watching him Blush

TheFifthKey · 30/06/2017 15:23

I like him! He seems nice, doesn't he? And quite genuine and friendly.

TinyRick · 30/06/2017 15:26

Just googled and he is only 10 years younger. So not too bad.

I really enjoy his heartfelt video about his parents divorce and how much gaming meant to him.

I saw him at Insomnia and he came across there as a very genuine person. He was being interviewed and he invited the audience (mainly 8 year old boys and their parents) to ask questions.

As it was near Christmas he was asked what he most wanted - "time off to spend with his family was his reply"

He also said that it takes on average 4 hours to make one video clip and he has over 2000 on you tube.

What also impressed me was that he said that this all started as a hobby and that he was actually in the police force before. I think he also went to college to study. All important facts when my DD says she wants to be a you tuber when she is older.

DS has gone off him. Gutted. He was the only one i could stand.

We have actually met DanTDM, and although I didn't have much of an opinion of him either way before, he was extremely nice and very kind to my then 7 year old daughter, and really paid attention to what she was saying. Also happily posed for a photo with her. Nice guy.

I met him last year on his tour. He had a little chat with my son and he was really lovely. I was surprised how small he is in real life.

TinyRick · 30/06/2017 16:59

Awww so good to hear how nice he is in rl too.

He is like the Dave Grohl of youtubers for kids.

(I say for kids because at least 2 gamer youtubers I follow are as nice too, just not as famous outside the game in question circle)

Such a nice guy.

My son aged 5 adores him.

LucyFuckingPevensie · 30/06/2017 17:02

I have heard about him but thought his name was Dante MD Grin.
I am an embarrassment to my poor doctor.

LucyFuckingPevensie · 30/06/2017 17:02

Dc ffs

PinkSquash · 30/06/2017 17:02

I have a little bit of a crush on him. I blame it on something similar to Stockholm syndrome...

LucyFuckingPevensie · 30/06/2017 17:03

I hardly ever see my doctor

LilithTheKitty · 30/06/2017 17:04

I like him too. He's nice and doesn't screech like some of them do. And he is good looking and has lovely eyes Blush

Maudlinmaud · 30/06/2017 17:14

The guy with the pugs. Ellie and D'Arcy. I know too much about this person but yes he seems OK. Dd watches ld shadowlady now and I prefer Dan.
