this hits different

After Daniel Howell posted his iconic coming out video, old fans suddenly logged into their old phan accounts to repost old fan edits with the title being ''hits different". This lead to fans going back to old dan and phil videos and commenting the same. It then spread to videos that weren't even related to phan at all.

dan from 2010- "fyi, i like vagina."
phil from 2010- "same"

anyone in the phandom talking about literally anything after Dan and Phil came out as if that somehow changed it.
