While I’m a little ashamed to admit that I never got into Dawson’s Creek, one thing is for sure: “I Don’t Want to Wait” is one of the most easily identifiable theme songs in the history of theme songs.

Setting aside all the backyard barbecues and community pools and mosquito bites and open windows, I’d like to maybe use this Memorial Day to honor the memory of my badass grandpa—a Korean War vet who chain smoked my childhood away at the kitchen table while solving crosswords and listening to Frank Sinatra.
