I've been watching both of your channels for about a year now, but never comment. I'm a pretty pessimistic and negative person, but I find your natural excitement over just about everything to be incredibly refreshing and infectious. I just wanted to offset some of those negative comments you get by expressing that there are regular viewers who never comment but love the way you run your channels. Thank you for making entertaining videos that I constantly look forward to watching.
*You might have a dairy allergy, Dodger.* *Most humans are lactose intolerant.* Lactose intolerance occurs when the body stops producing lactase (the enzyme that breaks down lactose). This naturally occurs in maturity since during our evolution, being a baby is the only time humans had milk. Not having this enzyme makes it unpleasant and uncomfortable to digest dairy. *_Milk allergy is distinct from lactose intolerance_* If you experience symptoms beyond unpleasant digestion, _you've probably got an allergy._ A food allergy is an immune response. Serious allergies are well known because they cause immediate and life threatening symptoms. It doesn't take life threatening reactions to have an allergy. *Delayed dairy allergic reactions* are an immune response of the body to the protein in dairy. In these individuals, the body has identified dairy proteins as a threat and responds like it's under attack. The body responds to this sudden attack by releasing an influx of defensive hormones and adrenaline. This is why people who discover that they have a delayed allergy generally identify dairy as their favorite foods, because it basically makes you high when you have it. The problems comes later when the affects of sudden and large amounts of hormones and adrenaline take their toll on your body. The symptoms of a delayed dairy allergy are different in each individual. Generally though, fatigue is associated with the delayed allergy. It's because the adrenaline that the body responds with sends your entire body and metabolism into overdrive, which wears you out. I have a delayed allergy to dairy and my experience was pretty drastic. The constantly and extreme shifting of large amounts of hormones in my body messed my thyroid up. I experienced the symptoms of Thyroiditis, which include extreme weight loss and gain, chronic depression, and fits of feeling weak, fatigued and passing out. When the doctor diagnosed me, my thyroid was about the size of a baseball. He thought I had thyroid cancer and sent me through a battery of scary and expensive cancer screenings. Of course, it eventually came back that I didn't have cancer. He didn't know what was wrong, and basically said I'd have to live with it. I went on to do my own research, found out about people's experiences with delayed food allergies and started cutting the common perpetrators out of my diet a week at a time. Stopped drinking milk or consuming anything with dairy and my symptoms stopped immediately. My thyroid, which had been enlarged and swollen for several years, went back down to normal size. The chronic and debilitating depression that I had struggled with for the previous 7-10 years vanished. Not only did my episodes of extreme fatigue and weakness disappear, but I felt like I had much more energy than I had ever experienced. I take less naps, stay up for longer and I'm able to accomplish much more in my day, at much more effective rates. Now when someone offers me food, I always ask if it has dairy. People are stupid about the subject and always assume it's some hilarious gastrointestinal issue. I've found that people won't take it seriously and try to trick me into consuming dairy. _The effects of delayed food allergies aren't funny._ The depression that I experienced because of my dairy allergy caused me to consider suicide multiple times a day for my entire adult life and felt worse and more painful than any physical ailment I have ever experienced or could imagine. Anyway, Dodger, your description of being weak and fatigued after consuming diary reminded me of all of this. Please consider avoiding dairy in all forms, it may improve your life dramatically! *The hidden perpetrators* that sneak dairy into your diet are: *chocolate* that contain milk solids, anything with butter (Even if it's been boiled and separated! This is a common trick for people with lactose intolerance to enjoy butter, but it does not help people with allergies!), and *dairy-free coffee creamers* (Yes, sometimes products will explicitly state that they are "Dairy-free" but still contain the dairy proteins that cause allergic reactions!!). You'll have to get to know the ingredients that are dairy and check everything you consume. *Whey* is one of the common ingredients that people might miss. Sometimes dairy protein itself is added to foods in a raw form. These food products might even be labelled as "Dairy-free" or something that will tell people with lactose intolerance that they're an easier version of the product to digest. This shows up in the ingrediants on the food label as *Casein milk protein*, *Caseinates*, such as *calcium caseinate*, *potassium caseinate* and *sodium caseinate*. These are all derivatives of the milk proteins that cause allergic reactions. I hope everyone has the patience to read this long, imposing piece, because it's very important to some of us :)
I'm really glad you got to answer that question about the negative comments on RUclips. I'm learning to do that myself slowly. While I don't have a RUclips channel or anything, I am very active in another community that can be very negative; whether towards me or each other it's good to know how to deal with it in a proactive manner. I love background music on the video.
You can take Lactaid before eating dairy foods so you don't get any of the negative repercussions. Honestly, it's a godsend. Makes it easier to eat out with friends (getting ice cream or eating pizza, etc.)
Hey Dodger, A lot of us love your stuff but it's all the bad apples that stick out. Just remember that even though we don't say it often, we love seeing you. Keep being awesome!!!
Dodger, keep being awesome. Your answer to the how to handle negative youtube comments was spot on, but come on...plain doughnuts?! You need to step your doughnut game up girl! Anyways, great video as always Dodger. I love these because we all get to know you a little better. :3
Plain Doughnuts...are pretty awesome. Then again there are people like myself who just like the taste of dough. *shrug* everyone's taste in doughnuts are reasonable.
I assume you've seen In Bruges? :) One of my all-time favorite writers/playwrights, and a great flick too. Also, love the vid. But that goes without saying :)
Wait! So dodger would kill the strongest dinosaur, cook it rotisserie style over an open fire, then use its corpse as a fence all in front of the other dinosaurs just to traumatise them into not attacking her? :D make this happen Dodger at 700,000 subs
DexterityBonus You should make it now with a trailer at 500K and have the video with Crendor, Jesse and TB! *enter boar thrills, leahjesse and Totalbiscuit*
It's like a perfect storm of just... niceness. Hmm... I'm going to say that it's the pull back hair which nicely shows off her slim face and neck coupled with a lower collar shirt that's not really formal, but not sure casual...? And nice natural makeup that highlights her eyes without being gaudy...? Maybe?
Whenever try to watch someone play a top-down game, I just think 'aaagh, I could be playing this my self and failing epically... which would be so much more fun!'
If you don't think you like Moba or Dota style games, you should really give Awesomenauts a look. I mean I'm pretty sure you have played it before (considering Both TB and Jesse are IN IT!... that and I'm pretty sure they wanted you to voice a TBA foxy naut at one point.) It is MUCH more casual and pretty fun to watch, because it isn't overwhelming as there are very few items to buy, and skills to remember :)
I really quite like plain Donuts as well. I am not into glazed for the same reason. It is also why I just don't like Syrup on my Waffles or Pancakes. it is just too sticky.

I love how the Q&A's have a different camera angle. Really sets it apart and it's interesting too. Also, great question/answer to end on!
"Why can't I control the weather?" *serious face* LOL
Ahahaha Dooger, you're so silly :3 I never thought I would see someone get their hands stuck in a coffee cup

Glad to hear that our positive comments mean that much to you and just ignore the hateful ones ;)
Thanks for answering my question!
It's nice to know about really good alternatives to milk and cheese.

I love background music on the video.
The choose your own adventure episode was dope! I have to re-watch that.
"Like my entire hand fits in here" - Dodger 2013
"Can I fit both hands in there" - Dodger 2013
Gotta love outta context quotes
Dodger your makeup is looking awesome in this video. I'm really liking the framing/position of this video, nice one! Love the Q&As by the way xx
Two weeks in a row!? I'm so proud of you
You can take Lactaid before eating dairy foods so you don't get any of the negative repercussions. Honestly, it's a godsend. Makes it easier to eat out with friends (getting ice cream or eating pizza, etc.)
So excited to see an other Q&A, this is very engaging !
Thank you Dodger! Amazing as always! Keep up the good work! :)
Woohoo, Belgium represent :D! If you have some time to visit some cities, I would suggest Ghent ;).
The music is really hypnotizing
"Oh man like my entire hand fits in here" - Dodger 2013
I was waiting for someone to do this 8D
"Can I fit both hands in there... no! Ah, no! My hands are stuck! How did this happen? How did I turn into this person!"
Kyle Rybski
first i thought of when that happened was when she got her head stuck in the car window :D DexterityBonus
Yep I totally have the same feels for plain doughnuts
Hey Dodger, A lot of us love your stuff but it's all the bad apples that stick out. Just remember that even though we don't say it often, we love seeing you. Keep being awesome!!!
Dodger, keep being awesome. Your answer to the how to handle negative youtube comments was spot on, but come on...plain doughnuts?! You need to step your doughnut game up girl!
Anyways, great video as always Dodger. I love these because we all get to know you a little better. :3
Plain Doughnuts...are pretty awesome. Then again there are people like myself who just like the taste of dough. *shrug* everyone's taste in doughnuts are reasonable.
Thanks for another entertaining and enlightening video Dodger!
its amazing how committed dodger is to COFFEH time she takes ten minutes of her precious time a day to share her life with us. thanks dodger
no thank YOU for watching :)
what!!!! a reply from dodger i feel like i just won the lottery :)
I assume you've seen In Bruges? :) One of my all-time favorite writers/playwrights, and a great flick too.
Also, love the vid. But that goes without saying :)
Awesome art work for your picture background, it is very well done.
Also this camera angle is very flattering for you, maybe it is the makeup.
Mayo? Dairy? Mayo is egg, oil and flavouring (mustard, garlic, vinegar etc.)
YesYesYes!!! Bruges is amazing, I've been on holiday there a couple of times & it was just so great
Loving this series :3
Butternut crunch is amazing
Question of the ages: "Why can't I control the weather?"
another good one! wtf you are comming to belgium next week? What city you going to visit? ;)
Omg you look stunning!!! Love these q&a seshs there awesome
You look great Dodger, also if you could do Q&A bi-weekly or so, it would be great, I'm liking them quite a lot :)
The choose your own adventure was the best!
Sea chantttyyyyyy!!!!
yummy plain doughnuts
yeah but the only good chocolate is just straight up dark bitter chocolate anyway :)
DexterityBonus yumm.. I Love dark chocolate :D 70-80% is to good.. Tried a 99% once.. That was uhm strong. Great for hot chocolate though :P
DexterityBonus Just call a cat Squiggles :P
NinjaKhaos74 That's adorable
She sounded so innocent answering the dinosaur question!
This was a great video, thanks. Also couldn't agree more with your taste in doughnuts.
donut w/ custard filling
hey loving the new setup
The background music is the best!
Belgium yay!
love the Claudia Donovan hair
Wait! So dodger would kill the strongest dinosaur, cook it rotisserie style over an open fire, then use its corpse as a fence all in front of the other dinosaurs just to traumatise them into not attacking her? :D make this happen Dodger at 700,000 subs
Heck yes. We're almost to 200k on here so we might as well plan ahead for the dinosaur filled post-apocalypse
DexterityBonus You should make it now with a trailer at 500K and have the video with Crendor, Jesse and TB! *enter boar thrills, leahjesse and Totalbiscuit*
DexterityBonus Going to go find you 500,000 subscribers now :)
Belgiuuuuuum! :D Next time you visit Bruges, make sure to visit The Druid's Cellar! Best pub in town!
Wow this episode was awesome, keep at it Dodger
That last question, though. xD Dinosaurs are Cool. These Q&A's are really Sweet! :D You're the Best, Dodger.
you know you've been playing vampire games too much when you catch yourself staring at the vein in Dodger's neck
BELGIUM FTW :D
Whoa! You look great today!!
Agreed. Not sure what's different but the combination of the hair and the makeup is working well for Dodger.
It's like a perfect storm of just... niceness. Hmm... I'm going to say that it's the pull back hair which nicely shows off her slim face and neck coupled with a lower collar shirt that's not really formal, but not sure casual...? And nice natural makeup that highlights her eyes without being gaudy...? Maybe?
Hayley Macmillan nice try Dodger's stylist.
Best non-dairy product I tried: Hot chocolate drink, with coconut milk, instead of milk! Try it!
Loved the Dino question lol Stay beautiful Dodger and have fun in Belgium :) Have you visited Germany? I feel like you'd like Germany.
Whenever try to watch someone play a top-down game, I just think 'aaagh, I could be playing this my self and failing epically... which would be so much more fun!'
A little bit of Dodger for breakfast :)
dodger never stop making videos please
The regular doughnuts are usually called cake doughnuts and they are my favorite too. You'd be surprised how hard to find they are.
You really need to make a Hearthstone series, and call it Decks Bonus! :)
Between fitting one hand and trying to fit two.... you're making the Dodger Soundboard a naughty thing.
2:00 Being I was just listening and not watching the video, it perks curiosity when I hear those words.
Glad you liked Belgium! Our country is the best :)
Awesome video Dodger!
Bruges is a really nice town, very scenic.
This music is happy!
LOL, I think you're the only person I've ever known to get your hands stuck in a mug XD
If you don't think you like Moba or Dota style games, you should really give Awesomenauts a look.
I mean I'm pretty sure you have played it before (considering Both TB and Jesse are IN IT!... that and I'm pretty sure they wanted you to voice a TBA foxy naut at one point.)
It is MUCH more casual and pretty fun to watch, because it isn't overwhelming as there are very few items to buy, and skills to remember :)
omg, i remember the unlisted coffeh videos, man times go fast
Regular donut buddies 4lyfe!
I agree that I would love to control the weather too
If you like Belgian Beer you should try German Beer.
Yay dinosaurs! I want to know what Pterodactyl tastes like!
Applying the lessons of Ender's Game to dinosaurs? I like it. Win all the battles, Dodger!
Whoa, I literally just watched In Bruges about 14 minutes ago. 'Tis an amusing coincidence (to me, at least).
Now that's how you eat Dinosaur's!
Man I remember the unlisted Coffee Times :) Good time. How long ago was that? I feel like I've been here for a while now.
Love the music
I like the fact that Dodger is "the face" of Polaris. This way she always has a makeup person do her up every day and make her even prettier :)
Plain doughnuts for the win!! (Assuming you mean that they are sugar coated)
Awesome video :D Keep it up :)
The beer in Belgium is wonderful. I want to go there someday. (I am also a quarter Belgian)
You're going to Belgium next week? How long will you be staying there for this time?
Someone should ask her if she would be on King of the Nerds show! I would love to see her on there if they bring it back!!! (I hate twitter so I wont)
I really quite like plain Donuts as well. I am not into glazed for the same reason. It is also why I just don't like Syrup on my Waffles or Pancakes. it is just too sticky.
Belgium is a fab place.
Dodger would kick ass when fighting Dinosaurs! Buttbag and Dodger slaying dinosaurs!
Donuts! Yummm...Nom nom!!!
Dodge the backround music is a tad loud :)
Also, did you use the new camera you said you bought?
You got a bit dark at the end. Saying all of those things. But, it cracked me up :D
Ooh a Polaris Hearthstone tournament! Is Haas Gaming also going to compete? :D
I had the same problem with the double reset....if you sack up I guess I need to as well.
Is that a Monstercat sticker on your desk?
Also, what about Australia!? D':
"Dodger the Dinosaur Slayer" should be a web comic or a cartoon who can make this a reality?
Why would you go to Belgium? Why not Germany :O ????
Greetz from Germany ;) Keep up the awesome work
9:41... best part.
That music annoyed me, so I came up with the brilliant idea to mute it...yeah, didn't work according to plan.
interesting and entertaining :D keep it up!
I approve of this video. Good Job.
fan art dodger = commander dodger (shephard)
Dodger has pictures of herself as her desktop... *queue Jesse Cox singing, 'You're so vain!'
I cheated and picked all the endings.
I quite liked the sea shanty.
Welcome to Cute & A with Dodger :D
I love you Douger!
