MILFORD


We've all posted about different situations where Firefly and Serenity lines have popped up in our conversations. That led me to ponder: Who gets quoted the most?

I know in my life, it's easily Mal. The comments he makes just somehow fit into my routine. Jayne and Zoe make occasional appearance, and there is a Simon sighting every so often, but it's overwhelmingly Mal.

How bout you guys?

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


I think just by virtue of "some people juggle geese" it would be Wash.

well Mal does get the best lines!

I think for me it's mostly Mal and Wash, with some Jayne. And who can resist sayin' "this must be what going mad feels like"

I use some people juggle geese the most. Followed by shiny and I love my captain.
So the answer is Wash.
An I carried such a torch

"I'll be in my bunk" is the most-often used quote as far as I know, so I'm guessing in terms of sheer quantity it's probably Jayne.



Other people can occasionally be useful, especially as minions. I want lots of minions.

Speaking as someone who has had some experience with quotes - and I haven't done an actual count, but of the 80+ quotes I've uploaded here:

http://scifiradio.com

it's my impression that it's Jayne, pretty much. Mal and Wash are close seconds. But that's just my take.

Lately, it's Mal - I love using the line about space monkeys when I walk into my daughter's disaster of a room...

*****
Mal:We're still flying.
Simon: That's not much.
Mal: It's enough.

It seems to be a seasonal thing. River seems to get quoted a lot during the fall and winter, and Mal get's the spring and Summer quotes with some Kaylee thrown in for added spice.

People seem to quote Jayne when they are mad, and they quote Book when they are feeling in a deep mood. Hardly no ones quotes Inara.

For me, it has to be River. Although... Wash and Mal are close behind.

I quote everyone though. Even Inara - which is weird. No one else seems to quote her.

Inara just isn't very quotable.

i think Jayne has some of the best one-liners....

"that's why i don't kiss em on the mouth.." being a particular favorite...

"40?... my muscular buttocks..."
"four full mags, and my swinging cod"
"i'll be in my bunk"
"shiny, let's be bad guys"
"can i start whorin' now"
"let's see, nothing times nothing...carry the nothing"
"hi - larious"

"Gorrammit!" --Jayne.
"Son of a bitch!" --Simon.
"I'm not a total backbirth." --Kaylee.

That's about all my quoting right there. Angry, surrounded by irritation and stupidity, and defensive. Yep, that's me.

I think Jayne has the most quotable lines

"Lets be badguys"

" I'm not good with words. Don't use em much myself."

" Thats why I don't kiss em on the mouth."

Mal and Wash run second.

Just seems to me the way Adam delivers his lines he puts a little extra frosting on them.

" Cause sick people are Hi-larious."

" That there is exactly the kind of d-i-version we could have used."

Okay.



Never say no one listens to you.

Yeah, Da Man does make some eminently quotable lines. And, yeah, I do actually quote him as himself a bit, too. And as Jayne. And Mal. And I still quote Buffy and Angel as well.

Yeah, I'll go with your answer: Joss. i'll just go get my blindfold and stand along the wall, too.
