Like this, but more!
James Van Der Memes is part of Vanderweek on Funny or Die, which is this week, because Monday was the 10-year anniversary of Dawson Crying gif, so you have a lot of things to look forward to now. Also Rachel and I will have plenty of feelings gif ammo the next time we do a post together.

“IS BEEK OFF THE CREEK?”
the internet can shut down because it will never be able to top JAMESVANDERMEMES.COM
I’m struck with a strange urge to watch an awkward 90’s teen drama series now.
I live with that urge every day.
I have so many feelings about this. I loved Dawson’s Creek when I was an awkward neurotic teenager.
Also, dear god what happened to our Joey Potter??
I can’t stand Dawson. When I watched The Rules of Attraction I was so surprised to see James VDB there. Kept thinking how inappropriate it was to have Dawson in it.
The other guy was okay though. The one who played the gay boy in Cruel Intentions and slept with the football guy.
funnily enough, the football guy was tim from the l word. god i love that movie, especially the ending.
whoooa you’re right! it is Tim!
