My girlfriend found my YouTube channel...

I'm not naked. Not— I'm

not naked. No, no, I'm not naked.

Um, guess what happened last night?

So the thing that I was afraid was going

to happen eventually finally happened.

Um, my girlfriend found my YouTube

channel. She came home last night looking

pretty confused, very serious. She sat

down in front of me and she said, Daniel,

I found your YouTube channel. I said,

how? How did you find it? How is that even

possible? She said she just searched my

name. She just typed in my first name and

then my last name, and then my channel

came up on the search results. And I can't

believe this happened. Why does my channel

name appear when you search my full name?

I've never used my last name. I've never

used my family name in any of my videos,

in any of my video titles, or on my

channel. I don't understand why typing in

my family name links someone to my YouTube

channel. I went onto Chrome, I opened a

private tab, and I tested it out myself.

I went onto youtube.com, typed in Daniel

and then my last name, which is a top

secret. And if you know my last name,

please, please don't type it in the

comments. I know, I know you're typing it

right now, aren't you? I said no, don't

type it. You think you're so clever for

finding out my family name and then

writing it in the comments. Well done.

What do you want? Do you want some kind of

medal? Do you want me to pat you on the

back and say, well done for finding it,

here's your prize? Anyway, I tried typing

in my name and then my family name into

YouTube, and then Hiding in My Room comes

up next to my name. I have no idea why.

So she sat down in front of me and she

said, Daniel, I found your YouTube

channel. Um, she was fairly

confused and a bit upset. She was upset

about some of the videos that I've been

making, especially one of the recent ones

where I talked about— where I talked about

June, the Australian girl who catfished

me. And I had some explaining to do. I

said that I knew what was happening, I

knew I was being catfished, I just made

that video for views. Do you think me,

someone who lives on the internet,

doesn't know when he's being catfished?

Of course I knew I was being catfished. I

knew all the way from the beginning that

it was just a guy pretending to be a girl.

Do you like my emo hairstyle? Of course I

knew it was a catfish. I knew the moment

she refused to send me nude photos or a

voice message. It's pretty obvious. So,

um, yeah, apparently it's extremely easy

to find my YouTube channel, and all you

have to do is type in my name and then up

comes my channel with all my glorious

content. I've, I've spoken about this

before, about being able to find my

channel channel fairly easily. And

sometimes people say this thing which

doesn't really make much sense. They say

all you have to do is type in Hiding in My

Room in Google and then all of your

details come up. If the person didn't know

that I was doing YouTube or they didn't

know my channel name, then they wouldn't

know to type or to search for Hiding in My

Room. They would have to know my channel

name in order to find my channel. That's

what I thought before, but apparently

that's not the case. Apparently all you

need is my first name and my last name and

Bob's your uncle. So if I do get a job and

my future employer does do a Google search

or YouTube search for my name, he will

find my channel and he will be very

surprised and shocked and possibly

disgusted. She kept asking me if I was

badmouthing her or talking about her in a

negative way on YouTube, and I said to

her, of course not, I would never do that.

I would never badmouth you in front of

thousands of people. She said that she saw

the videos where I talked about my

ex-girlfriends, where I called them ugly

or boring, and she was worried that I was

doing the same thing with her. And the

thing is, she isn't my ex-girlfriend yet,

so it's not the right time to be making

those kinds of videos. And she also said

that she saw the video where I said she

was the best girlfriend that I've had so

far, and she was very happy about that.

I'm not too sure how to feel about her

knowing about my YouTube channel or her

watching my videos. It's a bit strange. I

feel a bit like my privacy is being

invaded. I feel like I have less freedom

when it comes to making videos. I can't

say absolutely anything that I want to

like I used to be able to. I need to put

on a bit of a filter. And I know the

whole— the main appeal of this channel is

that I don't have a filter, and I know a

lot of you are going to be disappointed

because I'm going to have to start

censoring myself a little bit, but I need

to make a choice. I need to decide if I

want to respect her wishes or do I

want to talk about weird sexual stuff on

YouTube to get a few extra views, a few

extra clicks. I don't think it's a huge

loss because I don't, I don't have

anything new to say that you guys don't

already know about. She even saw Tomoko's

channel, and I had to explain to her that

Tomoko was this crazy married Japanese

woman who catfished me and then tricked me

into believing that she was a 28-year-old

single woman when actually she was not.

My girlfriend even joked about making her

own channel and making videos where she

badmouths me, talks about me, and I didn't

really want to encourage this because I

don't want a second Tomoko girlfriend who,

who makes a channel and then starts

talking about me and then starts stealing

my subscribers. Could you imagine if I

left a trail of YouTube channels made by

my ex-girlfriends where they just made

videos badmouthing me all the time? I

don't think that would be a very good idea

for my public image. I think it's

still too early to be able to tell if this

is a bad or a good thing. Um, maybe it

would be a good thing. Maybe I could make

videos with her. Maybe we could livestream

together. Um, who knows? I'm not sure how

many of my videos she watched, but it

seems like she's watched quite a few. She

said that she saw the one called All of My

Exes Were Ugly, and she said it was very

funny. She even saw the video where I

talked about getting married to her, and

she had a few things to say about that.

Um, in other news, I'm getting lots of

messages and private messages, emails From

people pretending to be June, from fake

Junes, and I just want you to stop doing

that because it's very disrespectful to

the memory of June. Rest in peace. She'll

never be forgotten, but I also think that

it's not— it's not very respectful to

impersonate her.

So I just found this sign. It says 25,000

volts of electricity, danger. And then I

touched the fence like this and then

nothing happened. Are they lying? And

look, the bullet train's down there, um,

taking people on. This is a very exciting

vlog, isn't it?

Livestreaming and vlogging. Oh yes,

oh yes, we can make a vlog at the same

time as streaming. Streaming and vlogging

at the same time. So, um, I'm walking

right now to this mountain.

I'm not sure what it's gonna be. At the

other side of this train station, but I

guess we'll find out. That's 20 seconds.

Hi and welcome to today's vlog.

I have lots of interesting things to tell

you that are all 100% true. I'm here with

my friends on the livestream. Say hi to my

friends. They're all inside of my phone.

I don't even know if they're actually real

people. So that's

the end of today's vlog. Um, I hope you

enjoyed it. There's not really much else

to say. I got a new hat. Do you like my

new hat? It's very stylish, I think. And

some people have been saying that I look

like Ben Deane when I wear this hat,

which is— oh, it's just— you're so kind.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

Um, it's very cold right now.

I need to have a shower and then do some

tidying up, and then we're gonna

edit the video. So exciting!

Isn't my life so exciting? Don't you wish

you were me? I bet Ben Deane's

really jealous now.
