...when you look in your closet and there is literally a long brown duster with serentiy and independent patches on it hanging there...

I know that's probably off the deep end a bit but I've actually had that coat for many years and never wore it and then I saw SereniFly and realized what a treasure I had hanging there so I bought the patches from one of the retailers listed on this site and slapped them on the coat and now it's really, really shiny and I can't wait to wear it to a convention or something and this is getting really bad and I'm rambling on and on and I'll stop now...sorry...my fanboy jones got the better of me for a second there. Please don't judge to harshly...

You know you're a Browncoat when . . .

You try to convert your Chinese friends so they can translate for you.

You snicker every time you hear a military official mention the chain of command.

Every time you see an attractive woman walk by, you turn to your friend and say "I'll be in my bunk."

Your friend understands the reference.

You hesitate before biting into an apple.

You think twice about people you meet wearing hats.

Blue latex gloves TOTALLY freak you out.

Someone says they're unarmed, and your first instinct is to shoot 'em.

You look at strawberries in a whole new light.

You never kiss a woman on the lips.

You attempt to throw random Chinese words into everyday conversation.

Every time someone mentions wishes and horses, you get a hankering for steak.

You've seriously contemplated what packaged food and rosemary might taste like.

You've recently taken up Chinese Checkers.

You refer to EVERY SINGLE party you go to now as a "mighty fine shindig."

People talking in movie theaters don't bother you much anymore 'cause you know where they'll end up.

You've tried eating non-Chinese food with chopsticks.

You've taken a sudden interest in rice wine.

You tell every one you know what a postholer’s for.

Your friends are tired of hearing that you can kill them with your brain.

You can say “crack of a baboon’s ass” in Chinese.

You’ve been to Plano, TX just to see if they’ve got any songs about Wash.

You’ve tried to convince your Sunday School teacher to integrate non-progressional evolution theory with God’s creation of Eden.

You know how fast the human body can be drained.

You’ve tried to make your own Mudder’s Milk.

You look for “The Hero of Canton” on Karaoke Night.

You've talked to your doctor about removing a certain nerve cluster in your back, just in case.

You sent last year’s Christmas List to Buddha instead of Santa Claus.

You get a little sad every time you see a leaf floating in the wind.

....your son is only 8 and he is a Browncoat...

...you have an iguana named Jayne because of the aforementioned son...

...you see a WWJD bracelet and think "What would Jayne do?"....

...you spend more time on this board than you do with friends face to face....

...you cried yourself to sleep when you discovered Nathan had a girlfriend!....

Is that last one REALLY true?! I WILL cry myself to sleep tonight.

The other two, though, fit me to a tee.

My turn, though

...you say "go-se" instead of crap and your boyfirend tells everyone else not to ask.

...you dream about it at night

...Hero of Canton echoes through your house when you've had a good day.

...your family knows every line of the BDM because you quote it to them, not because they've acutally seen it that many times themselves.

...the rally call to the Battle of Serenity thread inspires you to write letters to everyone you can think of.

...you never, EVER stop believing in and hoping for the return of the Serenity and her crew.

Wacky fun!

All of this, while other converts are in the room grinning at you.

....you refer to a payday or paycheck as "getting paid in cashy money".

....you study chinese curse words.

....you grin any time the word "shiny" comes up

....(this happenned today) You go out and stumble upon the action figures, and as you go to the counter the clerk asks if you want the trade paperback book (the 3 Comics in one book), because it's their hottest selling item at the time. You then tell all your convert friends.
....And of course you buy it even though you already have all 3 comics.

You sit at your desk during a slow period and list the episodes, on their correct disk and in order.

You work at a bank and refer to currency as "cashy money".

You see the name on a box of rubber bands made by Alliance and wonder how the Alliance got into making rubber bands.

You plot how to get a Firefly screensaver instead of the company logo past the IT guys at work.

You still have hope even though Nathan has a girl friend.

You KNOW that there will be a sequel.

You have converted at least three others to Firefly

Everyone else you know has heard of the show thanks to you

You have actually said "Some people juggle geese!" to someone who had no idea what you were talking about

...and then spent twenty minutes explaining the reference and trying to convert them to the show

You've bought clothes for no other reason than they look like something your favourite character would wear (knitted tops, patterned dresses, brown jeans, brown coats, leather waistcoats, Hawaiian shirts ... YOU know who you are!)

"You have actually said "Some people juggle geese!" to someone who had no idea what you were talking about"

I say that all the time!

You say "Please God make me a stone!" when something went wrong or you're just miserable. (I do and I am german, so everybody wonders even more)

For all Germans: You watch the DVD with the (really bad) german dubbing because your friends aren't so good in english...

You plan to make your own T-Shirts with Firefly and Serenity Quotes.
"Some people juggle geese"
"Two by two, hands of blue"
"I followed the voices"
"I can kill you with my brain"
"This must be what going mad feels like"
...
are on top of my list

You take your DVDs and Soundtrack wherever you go.

You give yourself the name "River_Tam" in an online poker room.

You spent your days searching for Pictures, Fanvids, Songs etc who are related to Firefly/Serenity

You spent the money for the next 3 months to by your copy of the Firefly DVDs (50€) and the Firefly Soundtrack. (Serenity and its Soundtrack haven't been released yet)

... you cheer when your spouse slips and says, "Some people juggle geese." (Said spouse trying not to be associated with your own obsession)

... you read about others singing The Hero of Canton in the shower and resolve to go watch the episode again so you can memorize the lyrics and try it yourself.

... you hesitate before reaching for that fruit bar (is it fruity oaty, or just fruity?).

... you realize with a jolt that you haven't watched an episode for at least a week (I blame the Olympics) and want to pop in one of the DVDs immediately, no matter what someone else is watching.

I will buy a new one tomorrow. But, as far as being a browncoat goes, I think I did good today; everything for the cause, right? :) *keeping fingers crossed*

...After asking all the teachers about Alan and finding out that he was on the speech team, you went immediately to the counselor and asked for a schedule change.


True story. That's why I have been on the speech team for the last three years. It's really weird to live in the same town as he used to and his parents still do because every so often someone will track me down to tell me a story about how they saw him over the weekend and I have never been one of the lucky ones.

you were watching firefly in an airport in doha, qatar (a small country next to saudi arabia) and a mulsim man dressed in all the muslim gear comes up and asks "hows the verse been treating you" you spend the next 2 hours talking about firefly. and you tell him to tell everyone he knows about the show. he tells you he already has.

You sing the Hero of Canton at work non stop.

You are a browncoat if...

...You are depressed for hours when you realize there's only a grand total of 4 browncoats in your entire school...and are absoloutly gleeful when you discover you were wrong and there's more.

...You bring your DVD set to school with you to take it to stay the night at someone's house, but wind up using it to try to convert several people.

...Your parents refusing to watch Firefly, at all, hurts.

...you cut your apples before eating them.

...you sing the theme song quite a bit, and often have a medly of various Firefly-related songs stuck in your head.

...You can trace practically anything in such a way so as it reveals SOMETHING to remind you of Firefly.

...You've told the annoying guy in your Algebra class "your mouth is talkin', might wanna see to that."

...You then spent the rest of the period explaining the refrence

...Your standard reaction to someone giving you too much information is to say "I can't know these things!"

Everytime I drink a shot of Jager (or whatever) I say "To the Mudders!" I get some funny looks, though not from my friends whom I'm proud to say, have been successfully recruited!

You know you're a Browncoat when you refer to the vehicle you drive as your Boat.

or when you're piloting your Boat and see smoke comming from a vehicle in front of you and begin to conclude that the vehicle is operating without containment.

or after realizing the vehicle is operating without containment and you yell "Reavers!" and put the petal to the floor dodging traffic recklessly to avoid the "Reavers".

...you wear your dogtags and/or Zoe necklace (from serenitystuff.com) every day and don't feel fully dressed without them
...you're not too sure you have anything in common with anyone out there who's not a Browncoat (yet).

I LOVE this story!!

You know you're a Browncoat when ....

just for a tiny moment, you wonder if "Firefly" is the key to world peace. ;-)

SIMON: That's not much.
MAL: It's enough.

... you're too poor to buy a Zoe necklace, so you spend literal hours scouring haberdashery shops for long, thin, dark brown leather cords - so you can make your own. You then wear it proudly.

As an aside, check fabric stores for that cording. They use it for lacings and stuff. Since the ends are tucked into her shirt to begin with, it doesn't necessarily have to be 'finished' cording.

You are a Browncoat if...


...you own a 'virtual' Browncoat issued by Followmal herself.

...you download or purchase an entire TV series just to see our BDH in just one or two of the episodes.

...you watch a cartoon just to see if you can find our BDH's voices.

...your day cannot begin your day without breakfast and a stop at fireflyfans.net

...you can't eat a turkey dinner without thinking about Mudder's Milk. (Gah, last night!)

...you saw the BDM and could label every scar that Mal had, including which episode it came from. "That's when he got shot in the Serenity episode, there's where he got stabbed by Crow in Train Job..."

...you're now afraid of talking during movies because you don't wanna go to the 'special hell.'

...you are going to go see Slither in theaters (instead or renting or downloading) just because Nathan Fillion is in it

...Same for Gina Torres and the movie Jam

...Same for Morena Baccarin and the last two O.C. episodes

...Same for Adam Baldwin and the movie The Thirst

...and I will be home when The Mammoth staring Summer Glau airs on T.V.

You sit through the entire showing of the truly awful TV remake of the Posiedon Adventure to show support of Adam Baldwin.

You cheer when watching Adam Baldwin in Independance day.

I, Robot might be worth watching again just to enjoy Alan Tyduk's voice.

Is it me, or is Lady Heather on CSI Inara's friend Nandy from Heart of Gold?

You buy movie stock in Slither just to support Nathan Fillion.

You own stock in Nathan Fillion and, while you are saddened to see the stock fall, you just can't bring yourself to sell it.

(You, too, can accomplish the last 2 at hsx.com. Just let them know that BlackJoke recommended you so I can get more fake $$).

...you refer to Fireflyfans.net as 'My other home.'

...you hold the line.

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.
