#ranch metaphor

[finallyhauntings]

I think the thing that fucks me up about the ranch metaphor is that Dan wasn't saying "oh ranch is so perfect it's a good way to describe us", he was saying "you know how it's already an understood fact that we were put on earth to be together? everyone already knows that. ranch is like us in that way"

Phil’s face when Dan said he was the furniture in the relationship, and Phil was the furnishings 🥰🥰🥰🥰

refusing to acknowledge phan for the relationship that it is in the big 2025 is crazy work. I saw someone on here recently asking for a "community for those that don't ship phan" and called the act of shipping dan and phil "speculating" as if dan himself hasn't said "it was more than just romantic" drawn "d❤️p" on a livestream and likened them to popular romantic ships such as "ineffable husbands" and nick and charlie from heartstopper. look at what dan and phil were texting each other on PUBLIC forums in the early 2000s. rewatch BIG. rewatch "DAN AND PHIL GOING AWAY Q&A" in which they literally tell us they are not qualified to give advice on "getting through a break up." phil lester himself reblogged a shipping war against jedus. they have designed their forever home together. like, at this point, deliberately refusing to acknowledge the well-known and real RELATIONSHIP that dan and phil share borders on homophobia. if this were a straight couple would you really be second guessing whether or not they are together?

this isn't the 2010s anymore; get over yourself

"lemme tell you will. i dont know what the fuck ranch is, but it was sent here from god. and you know it's like -- we were put, two little boys from hawkins and then we met on the swings and created this thing called 'Mike and Will.' The ingredients of ranch were put in this universe by god for the singular purpose of coming together to become ranch."

what if “ranch metaphor” breaks containment and ppl start using it for other couples and then anyone who goes to look up the origin has to face the fact that not only was it initially about dan and phil but it CAME from dan and phil
