Right, we'll have no more talk of doing inappropriate 'R' words to virgins.

This is a nice thread.

Oh go on Citizen, make that joke, you know you want to.

hey, do they have chocolate brownies in this camp? I remember the one consolation of being on late patrol was in the break you used to get to go to the kitchens and they'd leave brownies out for you.
Of course, they were always tained by the insect repellant on your hands, but they were still good.

The only dancing we had at the camps I went to were on the last night before we would go home; sort of a "Prom" thing.

One thing I was good at was cooking over a campfire. Hotdogs, hamburgers, marshmallows, the occasional annoying camper...

CYBERSNARK

I still remember when my scout troop went camping.

It was supposed to last all weekend. We went out Friday afternoon. Friday night, it started raining. All the tents leaked. Saturday afternoon, it was still raining, the campsite was flooded, some of us were sick, and we hadn't been able to do any activities ('cause the camp was flooded). Saturday evening, they called our parents and we all went home.

I hate camping.

Gimme a nice city.

Hell, gimme a spaceship. Nice level floors, no weather, stable temperature, no water where it has no business being. . .

Isn't obsessive a character trait of the Browncoats? (And I do mean that in a good way.) Well, maybe "enthusiastic" would be a better description?

And yes, Seryn, I forget things all the time. Heck, reading several of the threads in here led me to re-watch most of Firefly just looking for the things I missed the first (twenty) times.

At dinner after the RenFaire we were joking about how we needed a check off list for when we used quotes from the show/movie. I've been able to use quite a few in everyday life.

I use Beez-way! (or however it's spelled) with my kids in my band. For some reason, it really works.

And, I work in a church. One day my pastor was being very silly, come into my office and said something just off the wall, and I put my hand out and said "Keep walkin', preacher man!" and of course instantly regretted the lack of an appreciative audience.

There is nobody around here (that I have found yet) that is a Browncoat. My wife will humor me sometimes by quoting Firefly and patronizing me when I do, but it's not the same as having someone from the general populace recognize your references.

Its a film from the seventies. That Christopher guy who always played Dracula is the lord of this pagan island of the coast of scotland, and they lure in some policeman from the mainland when he arrives to investigate the disappearence of some girl.

Most notorious for the sex and nudity, the stripper they got in to double for Britt Eklands bum and the inhabitants of Summer Isle bursting into folk songs about genitals every five seconds.

Along with Zulu its his favorite film ever, he can quote it verbatim and knows all of the songs and their origins word for word, he only bought a DVD player when the film came out in that format, and sooner or later if you talk to him the subject will come up.

But apparently i'm the geek. Go figure.
