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.

Seek help.

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

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

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.

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.
