Jumping on the Dave & Weight loss questions , one of the many vloggers i follow is doing a 100 day challenge to lose 50 pounds with the main goal being able to ride the soon to open new coaster at Universal Studios , all this being documented on his channel.

He's called Adrian from Theme Park Express , maybe Dave should take a long look at this guys honesty and drive to become healthier with the dangling carrot being the Velocicoaster.

Trying to become the worlds strongest man isn't working Dave.

Good for him, he's found a reason to work for it. I wish him the best. Dave's reason should be Barney but obviously not...

What annoys me is now they are both home 'full time' they literally have 16 working hours a day between then assuming a typical 9-5 structure to get vlogging done, editing, coming up with ideas for videos, recording, designing pins etc, yet they act like they have no time for anything. It's not like they are me, working from my desk at home 9-5 plugged into video meetings, answering emails and doing tasks. They literally have complete autonomy over how they structure their day work wise. Yes they need to pause to feed Barney and play with him, and walk chip but seriously, if they agreed walk times and laptop time they'd get things done. I think they seem to have to do things together, like Sophie watching Dave clean a window. She should be doing some work to maximize their productive time between them. Absolutely no excuses when they are both at home.

This is exactly right! They over complicate everything - having to do stuff together that is completely unnecessary. Eg Soph driving fave to do the food shop? Sophie can just do it since she’s driving there anyway? It’s insulting that she says they work and have no time. Their vlogs are sub par and take minimal effort. They don’t meet their “work deadlines” because every vlog is late. They should really be ashamed of themselves. And another pin before Christmas?! Do they not realise that releasing them so quickly is going to reduce sales for them?
 
I don't ever think I can watch their videos again just to even chat on here. I barely watched the last one. LOL They are good at getting me to tune in because I think, Ah... they will get it now... and then I soon see. Nope. They didn't get it. However I do have a theory: if they are slow, and a bit... mmm... have a lack of energy in them... then a slow... lack of energy video would suit them just fine if they were trying to find something to watch on Youtube. The content you produce, is more than likely, the content that you would want to watch. So to them, they won't ever change, because right now (with the pandemic as another reason for the lack of creative content:rolleyes:) they are happy with what they are doing. If not they would change it up immediately, I would assume. Many people give them ideas and they don't really do any of the ideas. They do what they want.... because they are happy with the content they are producing. It's a never ending cycle that won't ever change. Their videos fit their personalities and their goals in life. A mirror image... and that's fine I suppose. Sad to change it this late in the game when so many of us found them early on or with Disney... but at least respond to comments. That is the ONE thing I think is flat-out RUDE. Not even to "like" the comment or whatever. You're not THAT busy and they say they read all of their comments so.... like it. Don't read the comments and like it. LOL .... You know they do read if they delete comments... at least like them. It's not hard.
 
whatsever you said:
Ohh didnt know they'd only sold a quarter. why does she keep saying they sold out?
Still not bad, £2.5k (well more because nothing is going to tommy's) for 1 days work.

Last time they sold 1000 this time they sold 250 but only had 250 to sell as I think even princess dreamer knew they weren’t going to sell 1000 again - and probably didn’t want to pay out for that many and risk not selling them all. I can’t even hate watch anymore because I can’t stand the pair of them.

Could also be splitting it up so it doesn't seem like another heavy load of pins to unload. Hence the Christmas pin.... which I would think will be more and cover closer to the 10k total again.
 
I hope the Christmas pin doesn't sell


I know this will sound evil

But I hope everyone sees them for what they are and they get a reality check

They won't have money to buy Christmas food and will have to go to their mums

I hope they can barely afford a tree

And I hope they sit there scrimping anything they can to try and buy barney anything

Can see it not - sophie will be sat crying because they can't get her a new dress for Christmas day and wont have a cute picture in all of them in matching pj's. Dave will be sitting there saying its OK and that she's doing brilliant and that he loves her so much, whilst chip chews another corner of the loaf armchair and they try and do another live to try and get any money in pleading poverty because they have no money to buy barney gifts.

This is literally like someone peered into the darkest corner of my mind and extracted my thoughts for a Tattle post 🤭😂

Ugh can you imagine Dave even fitting into a pair of Xmas pyjamas? If he did he’d be living in them the rest of the year I bet! 😂
