Hey there, you've reached the Anti-Pacey/Joey Thread #5: Welcome to Joey Potter's Little Charity Project!

If you don't like Pacey and Joey at all, if you were bored everytime they started to fight and made amends at 8:55 pm, here's the place for you my friend!
But if you love them and think they were meant to be, you're more than welcome in PJ thread. I'm sure they will treat you right.
Since this is a place to kinda bash Pacey and Joey (with some sweetness!), don't post things like "I luv PJ, Dawson s*cks!", this is pointless, kinda old and does nothing to improve our mood!!

Take it away people!

Musidora

Yaaay!!! Everything looks fine, Deb, thanks for starting it ^^"

Must confess that the title kinda breaks my heart since it's referring to Pacey *sighs* Well, can't do anything, Joey was the one who made him feel like nothing.

Deb D

Ana - just think of it as the relationship not Pacey himself. He was never like that with Andie

Musidora

Very, very true, Deb. The PJers might think it's ok to bash Dawson, that probably makes them feel better about their ship, but even if I didn't like Pacey (which happened most of the times that he was with Joey), I wouldn't bash him just to defend my ship. That's just immature, not to mention that it states the complete lack of reasonable arguments.

Deb D

That's why I always gotta smile when the anti-DJ thread descends into yet another round of Dawson-bashing. They got nuthin' else

Musidora

It's rather pleasant, indeed.

I posted there sometimes, but I didn't feel very welcome. Plus, the discussions weren't interesting enough. Truth be told, they weren't interesting at all

Deb D

I lurk there for my own weird sense of entertainment. ;D
Found this little comment in the book Troubled Waters (generally pro-PJ) by Scott Andrews:
Once again when things get difficult (between PJ) Pacey brings up Dawson....they seem so together and relaxed but every time they feel free the shadow of Dawson appears and the awkwardness comes crashing down.
Thoughts?

JVDBFan20

Thanks For the New Thread. Love the fanart,title and rules.I was thinking someone should add something about pacey's parents not even knowing his twu wuv real name i always found that kinda funny but anyways i was staring at that animation of pacey and joey yelling and it kinda looks like joey is saying i hate you.

Musidora

Pacey did seem to be always threatened by Dawson, which bothered me a lot. His low self-esteem played its part on it, but it didn't help the fact that Joey was the one who actually made him feel like he should 'fear' Dawson. Dawson wasn't just her best friend, he was her 'only friend' and Pacey, as her boyfriend, could never play this part in her life, which seemed to bother him (how wouldn't?). It would have been much easier (and healthier) if Joey at least had managed to treat Pacey as someone she could really trust. He felt insecure because of Dawson and although he freaked out many times, he had his reasons. When Dawson was the subject at hand, Pacey didn't have to question. He knew one way or another, no matter the situation, Joey would always go for Dawson.

It was great to talk to you, Deb, but now I must go. Get back tomorrow (today, actually) for more great discussions G'night

Deb D

That is a great "Twu Wuv" rule Amy. I'm sure the originators won't mind an addition

Katie19

the title. He never felt like Andies charity project. And she was also good in school.

nghn

hey everyone i love the new starting.It looks great as always


I found some pictures of the P/J love.They look so romantic

The Look of Love

Deb D

yeah that was always one of my issues with the PJ relationship - it never seemed to be based on real trust or friendship, depsite the build-up they tried to give it in season 3. At the end of the day it was always Dawson who Joey sought out for comfort, even in the finale, she only ever sought him out. It would be a pretty huge thing for any guy to deal with. Look forward to chatting tomorrow

Thanks for the pics Nagi - it looks like 'feeling alive' is really just 'feeling angry'

stoptheqtip

Just stopped by to say major at the title. Whoever thought of that, great job and, though I might not agree with what you say, you do have interesting and mature discussions, I wouldn't even come here if this descended into a 'DJ rules PJ sucks, Pacey HAS A BIG NOSE, ha ha' And sometimes I actually agree with you guys.

Cris

Wow, you guys are so fast!
Thanks for opening this thread, Deb
I LOVED the banner, Ana!
Wonderful job!

And I know what to mean, it's a conflict, because I've always loved Pacey. It's kinda strange to have the complete disgust for him, but sorry, it's all I have for him in season 4 and some parts of season 5 and 6. He became so dependent of Joey, to the point of lost some of his identity...always afraid to do something wrong, always so worried about Joey and Dawson. I know Joey had a big part on his behavior, but come on, I had the feeling that Pacey never felt safe with Joey...

How ya diddlin, glad you stopped by! I know you certainly don't agree with most of the discussions around here, but you're really cool!
And, one more time, looooved your avie and your sig!
