I once though a dare was just a dare. Then, I met the “double-dog dare”. A double-dog dare is an intensified form of the aforementioned dare.
In other words, I when you double-dog dare, this is how it can be interpreted:
With great energy and strength, I vehemently dare you.
So, with our definition clarified, I double-dog dare you to accept the JOY DARE challenge put forth by my sweet sister friend, Ann.
With that said, my Joy Dare continues…
