[bitelester]

Yoseob: Synonyms are weird because if you invite someone to your cottage in the forest, that just sounds nice and cozy, but if I invite you to my cabin in the woods, you’re going to die.

Kikwang: My favorite is “butt dial” vs. “booty call”.

Doojoon: It’s called connotation.

Junhyung: Also, “forgive me father, for I have sinned,” vs “sorry daddy, I’ve been naughty”.

Dongwoon: Great news! Language is now cancelled!

[bitelester]

Dongwoon: Is there a word that’s a mix between angry and sad?

Doojoon: Malcontended, disgruntled, miserable, desolated…

Kikwang: Smad.

if haechan debuts as a solo with his new single, would y’all stream it until he gets no.1? if haechan participates in an idol competition, would y’all cheer him on? let’s go a little smaller, if a fancam of haechan was posted and it determined every members popularity/rank in the group, would y’all watch it repeatedly so he gets more views?

the expected answer would be yes, we love him, why wouldn’t we? But in reality y’all wouldn’t & y’all DIDN’T. this is for the people who literally SLEEP on haechan’s existence in nct. his we go up cam is still the lowest viewed out of the members and that pretty much gives a message to the company sm that haechan isn’t really popular.

im sad that someone who is literally so TALENTED, has a voice that goes #G5, can dance and learn any choreography in a short period of time, the mood maker of the group, is considered the underdog. he was the only one in dream to go through a scandal that mentally exhausted and embarrassed him. he still survived it. he has a tan skin color but he says he loves and represents his skin for what it is. he had actual FANS calling him fat and hyuck had to go on a diet since the age of 15. he legit supports the LGBT community and even suggested kfans to listen to troye sivan. he went through all this and y’all say he hasn’t had it hard in the industry?

people sleep on hyuck all the time without even knowing it, just like how some of you did when jeno and him did aegyo, when he was on stage and the “fans” shouted “Jisung!” repeatedly when he was still talking, when members choose x over haechan, when he got hate for being unprofessional when he accidentally got hit by winwin on stage. it all affects him, but he’ll never show how aware he is to all this. he’s sensitive but he tries hard not to show it. of course he won’t, every idol has to keep up an image.

it’s saddening that haechan is one of the least popular members in nct. I wouldn’t imagine how hard it is for him, the actual 18 year old kid who had to go through all this. i hope he doesn’t think low of himself after seeing the views on his wgu cam. teenage years are sensitive years, you start thinking maybe you’re not good enough or how you could become better.

stop sleeping on one of the most talented members of NCT, Lee Donghyuck, also known as Haechan. Thank you.

My opinion on the valentine's day video

Submission:

Okay before I start, I don’t want any hate. This is just my opinion, and you’re perfectly entitled to disagree with it.

These are my views on the famous ‘valentines day video’, that I found a few months ago.

Firstly, I do not really believe the “it was a prank” explanation. It just doesn’t add up, and there’s so many loopholes in that theory.

For example, they explained that it was meant to prank the shippers. What shippers, though? Their fanbase was a LOT smaller than it is now, back then, as it was made in early 2010. So, with the fanbase small, the amount of people who shipped them must have been even smaller. Shipping almost didn’t exist back then, either. It became popular in early-mid 2012. Yes, it was during the era when slash fiction was just becoming popular, but why go to all that effort just to prank a very small number of people that barely even stand out amongst the rest of the fanbase?

Also, relating to the amount of people in the fanbase, they had a lot less subscribers back then. Dan probably had about 50,000 or more, and Phil probably had just over 100,000. However, if this was the case, Phil’s second channel, LessAmazingPhil, had a lot less subscribers than his main channel. 

The point? Although Dan once stated in his Customer Service Department blog that he uploaded it to AmazingPhil, he didn’t. The video was uploaded to LessAmazingPhil, where it would have been seem by such a smaller number of people. If this was a prank, why was it uploaded under the name “:3”, to his second channel? Why not under a name such as “HAHA” or something more joke-y that people would know was a prank?

Wouldn’t it be a good idea, to explain in their next video that the video was to “prank the shippers”? So that absolutely all of their subscribers would know? Even if the video was supposedly an unprivated prank, why didn’t they explain it properly in a video?

The vday video is a very taboo topic to talk about these days with the Phandom. Half of the new fans have no idea what it even is, for a start. But if Phil finds a video of it on YouTube, he will always claim copyright and have it taken down, which he has every right to. I personally think it’s very wrong to be sharing it there (even if it is a prank), where it’s much more visible and available to not only them, but millions and millions of others! 

They really hate talking about it, and they do their best to avoid bringing it up, Dan in particular. Why? If it was a prank, why not openly explain that it was, and be comfortable talking about it? Why defensively bash and insult anyone who asks about it, or mentions it, if it was only a “prank”? 

In the video, Phil talks about real memories that he had with Dan, referring to the abandoned hospital in the snow, with Dan’s hat, which featured in the Christmas Adventure in 2009, or sitting in Starbucks, and we know for a fact that their favourite coffees are caramel Macchiatos. And when he was talking about their Manchester days, which he also mentioned in one of his older videos around December 2009 (I’ll have to look for that, I know it’s there somewhere) 

Not to mention formspring answers, including the ones mentioning cherry 

“omg so much cherry everywhere" 

"cherry apparently”

“funny times in my bed”

“do you prefer cherry or pina colada?”

(Yeah right I’m going to stop. That’s their business, not ours :’) )

But anyway, the memories he describes seemed so realistic and believable. Why would you pull off a prank using real memories that are close to your heart? If it was a prank, why not use far-fetched memories such as “we went skiing in Switzerland” or something, ones that sound moderately believable, but at the same time jokes?

Also, let’s not forget the fact Phil explained a reason for even making the video.

“You had to go to bed, leaving me for 5 hours with nothing to do, so I have made this video for you, because I love you. Plus, you got me loads of awesome birthday presents and I wanted to repay you somehow” etc.

If it was a prank, would he really put in such a reason? Or wouldn’t he just dive straight in with it? 

Now here are the main points I want to bring up-The valentine’s day video was said to be an April Fools joke. If this was the case, why was it uploaded the day before valentine’s day, and not April fools day? The day it was unprivated, was also nowhere near April fools day- it was sometime in September 2011, (the 17th I think?) which was the day YouTube was experiencing a technical glitch, and unprivated a bunch of videos on Phil’s second channel, one of which being the vday video. There were also said to be other Phan-related videos that also were unprivated, such as a video where Phil supposedly held up pieces of paper with messages to Dan. Was that also a “prank”?  Would they have called it a prank if anyone was to bring it up? No-one appeared to actually save this video as all the attention was drawn to the vday video, and it’s not really discussed amongst the phandom much, so I can’t really base any more opinions on something I haven’t seen for myself.

There’s also the argument: “If the video was real, why would Phil upload it to YouTube, with the risk of it being unprivated?”

Remember, this is 3 years ago. The technology back then was a lot less advanced than it is now, and file sharing would be incompatible, as Dan has a PC and Phil had a Mac. Yes, he could have just shown the video to Dan when they next met up, but this would’ve been difficult with a 300 mile distance. Maybe he wanted to have the video uploaded in time for valentine’s day, as Dan’s valentine’s day present? 

Anyway, the easiest way to send the video to him would have been to upload it to YouTube on his second channel, make it private, and send the link only to Dan, which would be a plausible theory. Then, the video was unprivated on the day of the glitch, and they panicked, and mutually agreed on the “it was a prank” explanation. I’m sure they would’ve been able to think of a better explanation if they had time, but as this was the biggest shitstorm the fandom had ever experienced, they had to act fast.

Another theory would be that Phil made the video, uploaded it, sent the link to Dan etc. Then, he decided he wanted to make it public and share his relationship with their fans. However, when Dan found out, he panicked, told Phil to take the video down, and told everyone it was a prank. However on the off-chance that this theory was true, wouldn’t Phil clear it with Dan first? 

I should mention at this point that there’s a theory that Dan and Phil broke up because of the leaking of the video. I personally don’t believe this; as this was before they moved in together. I can understand the first year of them living together as friends, as Dan was in University and needed somewhere to live, but, out of choice, moving to London together the following year? Even though they could have easily bought separate houses? Spending all that time with your 'ex’, and not being in a relationship for that same amount of time? Hmm..

Looking back on Phil’s other videos around this time, he has a bubbly, happy camera personality. However in the valentines day video, he was acting as if he was 100% serious. His voice changed, his body language looked a lot more sincere, and his eyes were looking directly into the camera for most of the video.

(Psychological fact) It’s said that when someone is lying or making something up, their eyes subconsciously look to the left, as this is the creative side of the brain. Sometimes, they might also look up. Not once in the video did Phil look to the left or upwards. Instead, when he wasn’t looking straight into the camera, he was looking to the right, which is the truthful, more factual side of the brain, especially when he was talking about the memories. This could support the argument that the memories he was talking about were true? 

Also studying his personality overall back then, something like the vday video really doesn’t seem like something he would 'joke’ about. It would be a joke far too personal. Maybe that’s just my opinion, but to me, that seems unlikely. 

In conclusion, I believe that the valentine’s day video was made sincerely, but was not meant for the public eye. It was meant to stay between Dan and Phil, but was unfortunately leaked onto the internet. That’s just my personal opinion of what happened, and I am in no way claiming that this is exactly what happened and everything was 100000% true, it’s just what I believe, and I’m not trying to prove anything, nor am I saying that “PHAN IS REEL!1!! In reality, it could well be a prank! And you can disagree or agree with me. Either way it’s fair enough :) So yeah, my hands hurt from all this typing so I’m going to go now. Thanks for reading
