Oh Chachi, you make the Internet cry like Dawson

The war between Jezebel and Scott Baio is the best thing to happen on the internet all month. In fact, and I’m not ashamed to admit this, I love the Jezebel v Scott Baio junk more than I love watching Bret Michaels on Celebrity Apprentice. I love it more than Barney Miller reruns. And I [...]

Snarkapotamus

The Dawson’s Dilemma rages on. I just sent this rather angry e-mail to Sony Pictures Home Entertainment: I will send back my box set because I don’t think it’s right that I paid for something that doesn’t work. However, I have to say this is a horrible customer experience. I don’t see why if I [...]

The Dawson’s dilemma

There are certain pieces of art — music, books, movies, tv shows — that click with you in ways that are hard to define. Oftentimes mere words cannot explain the feelings you have for certain things. The heart wants what it wants, right? Though I have tried, I still can’t explain what it was about [...]

Whining on a Monday, because Thanksgiving is over & I can get back to being a brat

The manager of Tires Plus called me. I missed his call. Why? Because AT&T has a habit of not actually putting through my calls. Ziggy won’t even ring. No missed call notices. Nada. Oh, until like 3 hours after the call was missed. Then, and only then, will I discover two voicemails (sorry FFJ). Also, [...]

Not really resisting the urge

Ever since Dawson’s Creek: The Complete Series came to Supergenius HQ I’ve had to resist, with every fiber of my being, the urge to create Tumblrs and Twitter accounts for all the characters and tweet each episode like some kind of deranged uber fan. I fully realize that the fact that I even have to [...]

A moral failing on my part

Some of the heartiest of Minnesotans might thing it was a moral failing on my part to take off virtually an entire week because of a cold. Those people can blow me. There is nothing fun about being sick and there’s nothing good or productive about doing a half-ass job while being sick. No, taking [...]

Answering the Googlers Questions XI: All Dawson’s all the time

Here’s what I’ve learned looking at this month’s logs, a lot of people are really concerned about what to wear to a Journey concert. Also, I could turn I Will Dare into a Dawson’s Creek blog and people would be happy (and so would I, for about 20 minutes) How many kids does Marie Osmond [...]

Answering the Googlers’ Questions X: The return of a fan favorite

Since it’s been awhile. . . this is a feature on I Will Dare where we answer the questions that brought inquiring Googlers to our doorstep. Is the road to hell is paved with adverbs? Yes, yes it is. It’s also paved with that shitty Chuck Klosterman novel. What should I wear to a Journey [...]

If loving NYC Prep is wrong, I don’t want to be right

After years and years and years of trying to fill the gaping void left in my life by the exit of Pacey and Joey and Dawson and Jen and Jack from the small screen, I have found something to make me whole again. It’s called NYC Prep and it’s easily the best thing ever since [...]

Answering the Googlers’ Questions IX: There sure is a lot of curiousity surrounding Dawson’s Creek on the Internet edition

It’s been many, many months since I’ve answered the googlers’ questions. I feel bad. All these people thirsty for information, and me hogging it all. Shame on me. What happened to Aunt Jodi? After Jimmy quit, she got married, you should have known they’d never get far. Oh, but when you look back now, that [...]

The pain of quitting cold turkey

A few weeks ago I talked about cutting back on my cable bill. When I made the cut I thought I’d just be cutting back on the Dawson’s Creek but I was wrong. I was cutting it out completely. Ouch. There are no words to describe this hole in my life, no, in my very [...]

The 10 Best Episodes of Dawson’s Creek, a list because Polly asked and the draft was still there

10. Abby Morgan’s Funeral : First it includes “Whatever Makes You Happy” by Paul Westerberg. Second, death and near death makes for good TV (see “Blind School Fire” episode of Little House on the Prairie, Pinky Tuscadero bumps her head episode of Happy Days, and that episode of Scrubs where Brenden Fraser dies). Anyway, badgirl [...]

The way it posesses you it really frightens me

Tomorrow when I am bellyachin’ about the short story that isn’t quite done and how I have to get ready to go the Bob Mould concert, remind me that it’s totally my fault because instead of writing or pretending to write I am watching Dawson’s Creek.

Emotional porn

I have heard tales told that when some people need help getting the mojo rising or the juices flowing they follow their prurient interests to porn. Tonight I needed some help. Not with the bow-chikka-bow-bow, I took care of that yesterday ifyaknowwhatImean. Nope, I needed some emotional porn. Ever since I found out I was [...]

Cleaning out the DeeVeR

I don’t have TiVO, I have the generic video recording device shilled by Comcast. I call it the DeeVeR. However, I when I have sheduled a recording, I call it ‘tivoing.’ Just so we all got our terminology straight. This morning/afternoon, I’ve been playing catching up with Internet and doing some housekeeping around Paul Westerberg.net [...]
