`

So Daniel missed another chance to get laid.

And I'm guessing we won't be seeing Bree for a while, unless she miraculously escapes again.

No, that's the "let's get it on, honey" icon.

This is probably the closest thing to snarky:

Though this one can be if used properly:

Anyway, I really don't have anything to say about this video. Seems like stalling to me (possibly because Jessica Rose is unavailable for filming?). Still have no idea why they left Texas either, thinking that Jonas' house in California would make for a better thinking space. Or why they think they can come up with a better plan without their hacker. Or why they never tried to interrogate or follow Jules' parents.

Actually, this was a decent video; Daniel blogging some emotion about his concern for Bree's well being was somewhat overdue.

Bree can easily find D&J at Jonas' place, if she is able. The Order can as well, of course.

D&J remaining in Texas would merely place Taylor and Sarah in further jeopardy. Taylor's hacking skills can be applied and reported remotely; D&J don't need to be in her vicinity to receive reports from her.

I'm a bit curious about Sarah. She seems like just the kind of girl The Order would attempt to subvert, IMHO.

I don't know about ham and butter sandwiches, but bread and butter sandwiches (a redundant name, I know) have always been a mainstay snackfood.

I'm glad we had a video where Daniel reflected on life outside the vlog drama. We haven't received this sort of connective emotion from the Beast since the good ol' days when he still posted from his own YouTube name.

I have to disagree. We've heard twice now (once from him and once from Jonas) that the guys are "lost" right now.

This much is true, but the guys had no way of knowing that Bree isn't still in Texas. There's also no obvious reason for them not confronting or following Jules' parents.

Grr.

This video made me feel guilty.

My grandma has been asking me to email her, and I wrote her a quick hello. >.<

-goes to call grandmother in Iowa-

Right now? Are we watching the same series here, Lurker? Those two have been lost for weeks. Fortunately, there have been some smart young ladies who have been available to fill in the intelligence gap.

I can see your reasoning here. We have never actually seen Jules' parents except for photos in their home. I agree that this was an area that was left unexplored. That would be something that Taylor/Sarah could do for them.

"Right now" means from the time Bree left to the present moment.

Sarah and Taylor?! Jeez, if they go from first asking the girls to be the distraction for that dog to this, then, man, they do need to grow a pair.

About time...

From a storyline point of view, very unspectacular...but Yousef's acting was amazing, and this episode definitely fleshed out Daniel's background.

So...worthless storywise, but a great way for Yousef to show off

Sigh.

I liked this video. It was very cute and sentimental and it sort of made me want to cry, like someone said before, because it was sad. And DanielBeast sad over his Bree is very, very cute.

Also, the Creators, in lieu of significant plot movement, have been experimenting with new and interesting editing techniques. I don't know if they hired someone new or if they're just trying out new stuff -- but I like it. It's cute.

However. I still want to kick Daniel and Jonas' asses... or maybe it's not their fault and I'm just assuming it is... because they're sitting around making sandwiches with Bree all left to the Order on her own devices.

Now, I know she's not hopeless, but she has two extremely able friends who are sitting at home depressed making no significant efforts to save her?

Gaaaaaaaah.

Next time Daniel gets kidnapped by some "Cowboy" with a big white van, I hope her and Jonas sit home and make s'mores for about a week before thinking about ways to save him.

Maybe I'm bitter at the lack of a substantial plot moving video.

But mostly, I wanna kick those boys' butts, lol.

Which isn't uncommon.

To express a "snarky" statement, I would probably use the smiley blowing its tongue, or the angel one, or maybe rolling eyes, idk. It depends on the degree of snarkiness.

Oh, the wink one might work too.

Ew, wth. We need to pick a random smiley that represents snarky.
I vote one of these:
