You start seeing things from the 'verse where they clearly ain't...

So, I'm watching "Wallace and Gromit: the Curse of the Were Rabbit" and lo and behold, when I look at the golden carrot, what do I see but the ship, "Serenity".

Here's the image I posted in the blue sun room: http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=9728

Please, someone interupt my crazy time...

Anyone else had a similar experience?

This must be what going crazy feels like...

surround it in black. Change the lighting a bit and add some rocket thrusters, and yep you have Serenity. We are not crazy, only MAD with Versiris.

No....we all see it too. It's not just you. Is this some secret scheme of Joss' to insidiously infiltrate other films and shows with the 'verse to subliminally bring more people over to us?

Have we found the beginnings of a Firefly Da Vinci Code?

Have...

naw, I'm just gibbering. I'm gonna go back to shuttin' up and watching the show again now.

I was looking through my MP3's and noticed I had one called the Hero Of Canton. Nothing wrong with that, I just didn't remember downloading it. Then I looked closer. It was "Hero Of The Day" by Metallica. Firefly has offically rotted my brain. Strangely, I have no problem with this. Ahhh, the power of the verse...

At last.
We can retire and give up
this life of crime.

The word "per-maybe-haps" and the frase "hey, some people juggle geese" are now a part of my everyday speech.

I too spot Serenity/Firefly references in places that they couldn't possibly be. Like the lint trap in my dryer...

...Why are you looking at me like that? I don't have a problem, I swear!

You're welcome on my boat. God ain't.

You know you've been watching too much Firefly/Serenity when...

You start talking like Mal, or....... hell any of the crew for that matter.

You say words like "Shiny" and "Gorram" a lot.

You are haveing war flashbacks of the Unification War.

You can't stop eating strawberries.

You started calling your little sister "Mei-Mei"

And last but not least.
When you can watch the entire season in 1 day.

It had to be pointed out to me but yes I can see it.

You know you've been watching (I am not going to say too much) FireFly/Serenity a lot when:

You are sitting in your break room at work and you drop the coffee pot and yell "Gorram it!" and Kim looks up in shock. (Kim is Chinese)

I watched Firefly, then I built a ship inspired by serenity, note the 360 degree rotating engines at the ends of the wings and the forward main cargo hold were the principle factors of the ship modled from Serenity.

Ooooh.

New movie.

40-year-old Jayne Cobb (Adam Baldwin) has given up his life of crime and is working as a (waitress in a cocktail bar... *cough* sorry) as a Lecturer at Sihnon College for Young Ladies. One day he receives a call that a priceless space relic, the Firefly on which he used to sail, has been used in a major crime. The body of Adelai Niska, a famous annoying badass, has been found on board the ship, chopped into lots of small pieces and rearranged on the floor. His body parts form the kanji for 'Serenity'.

Goodness, thinks Jayne, and calls up his beautiful assistant, Kaylee Tam, wife to the famous Dr Simon Tam. As the story unfolds, it turns out that contrary to popular belief, Hoban 'Wash' Washburne, who died to save the show (even though it didnt work, stupid Fox) actually has descendants, thus thrilling all Zoe-pregnancy fanfic writers all over the verse.

With help from River Tam, world-acclaimed nutjob and psychic, and Sir Mal Reynolds, the 'verse authority on Wash and his legends, the crew must outwit Shepherd Book, an albino-haired monk, well known for his scary collection of cilice belts and outlandish weaponry.

This will change the views on Wash all over the Verse...

Sorry. Couldn't resist...

...You complement your date by saying that she looks "Pretty...pretty. Especially with engine grease all over your face." (That one went down well, lemme tell ya!

)

...Your mom always wanted you to be a doctor, and now you do too...not to save people's lives or anything, but just so you can say cool stuff like "Your patient should be dead!" and "How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep?"

...you keep your FF/BDM dvd's in a seperate stack from the rest of your DVD's, so they're always handy.

...on your AP European History examination, when asked about the role of the state in the "modern era," you seriousley considered mentioning the Alliance.

...you're a student pilot, and your instructor puts you into a stall, and while preforming the normal recovery procedures, you begin muttering "leaf on the wind, leaf on the wind, leaf on the wind..."

...you know all the words to not only the theme song, but also "Hero of Canton," and "Fruity Oaty Bars."
