DP took our DD out to town earlier. He came back with the dvd of dan tdm live on tour.
It has now been put on the tv in the living room and I am trapped in here with it on!
WWYD?

Darn it, my DS told me Dan TDM wasn't a thing anymore as he threw out his signed Minecraft sword last week. I asked if we couldn't have sold it and he insisted nobody watches him anymore! Arghhh!

KC225 · 02/12/2017 23:35

I ordered the signed one on Amazon as Christmas presenr for my DS. My son can barely wait. Dan TDM yes the voice is grating, but he is quite wholesome, no bad language, nothing mean or spiteful and pugs are scrumptious.

Welshmaenad · 02/12/2017 23:43

Did anyone else's DC cry when one of DanTDM's pugs died? DS was inconsolable!

Eltonjohnssyrup · 02/12/2017 23:44

I quite fancy him. When he puts a hat on and you can't see the silly hair he's quite fit. Yeah. Would. He's an improvement on Mr Bloom and looks like he has the potential to be quite dirty.

Witchend · 02/12/2017 23:45

Main beef with DanTDM is now mine want a pug like his.

He seems a good chap actually. No bad language, encourages watchers to be nice, and generally seems quite pleasant. I know someone that met him at Waterloo and was on the same train and he said that he came across irl much as he does on the videos.

Bearfrills · 03/12/2017 00:24

DS absolutely loves DanTDM, he's convinced they are BFFs after Dan high fived him at a meet and greet and called him buddy. DS nearly took the poor bloke's hand off in one career ending swipe, he can't judge force/speed due to proprioception issues so he put his entire strength into that high five

He's getting the DVD in his stocking for Christmas.

I don't mind him watching Dan but have banned FGTEEVEE, Sis versus Bro, and Pat and Jen (some of their mod videos aren't particularly suitable for an 8yo).

BertieBotts · 03/12/2017 00:30

I don't mind Stampy either, he is also a good role model.

Can't stand Pat and Jen, they come across as utter morons and I can't stand the way she simpers over him constantly, yuck. Plus I wish they wouldn't shout when they are clearly sitting right next to each other!

GwenStaceyRocks · 03/12/2017 11:22

Welsh yy DS was very upset when Dan's pug died.
DS is completely torn between wanting a pug and not wanting one because he knows he'd be even more upset if his own pug died.

We've met him twice and he was lovely. We met Squid once too and he was very chatty and patient with the DCs. It was the best day of DS' life

Skkaur · 04/12/2017 14:24

Like Dan too...everything he stands for with kids, school, great role model. Still but received his advent calendar though : (

FloydWasACat · 05/12/2017 20:30

Dan TDM, can handle. Stampy gives me a slight twitch, Fucking Pat and Wanky Jen give me the rage, I do not know what DS8 was watching with them today but Jen's squealing and Pat's inane crapchat made me want to put christmas tree needles in my ears and eyes

x2boys · 05/12/2017 20:49

oh Jeez op how awful for you ds1 went to see him on tour last year[hes obsessed] he went with his dad thankfully .

x2boys · 05/12/2017 20:53

apparently he makes up to £5000000[probably more now with his world tours etc] a year not bad for talking crap about minecrafr.

Bearfrills · 05/12/2017 22:13

I put a stop to Pat and Jen when they posted a video of a Minecraft sex mod.

Bearfrills · 05/12/2017 22:24

That should say "a fake account posted as them and posted a video of a sex mod". Baby slapped the screen while I was typing

It kept popping up in searches and similar videos were autoplaying after their videos.

revengeongc · 05/12/2017 22:27

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks DanTDM is quite fit.

I like the fact he never swears and the video when his pug died actually made me well up.

God, I'm hopeless.

itusedtobeverydifferent · 05/12/2017 22:28

He's just part of our family! Or at least it feels that way...

goodiegoodieyumyum · 25/12/2017 20:44

I have to say thanks for this thread as I ended up buying my daughter Dan's book for Christmas the look on her face was amazing, so thanks Op

The problem is that they always find someone more annoying to watch so the previous guy doesn't seem so bad. I actually find myself encouraging my son to watch Dan TDM or Stampy because the others are so much more irritating!

BearsDontDigOnDancing · 25/12/2017 21:05

DanTDM is one of the best ones my kids watch.

At least he is aimed toward his audience and I have never worried about a swear word or something inappropriate slipping into his videos.

Some of them I have had to stop them watching.

Pat and Jen are just super annoying.

And then there is this guy called Crainer they have watched and his voice is super irritating.

There has been the odd time I have begged them to watch DanTDM and not any of the others.
