Yay! just registered! I was reading these and they inspired me to register, so I could post. Lots of real good ones, I feel so proud since so many of them apply to me!
How about these
... your username for everything else is either firefly or serenity.
... you try to convert everyone you have online games or conversations with.
...You try to make said conversions by having your avvie related to serenifly and hope they ask you about it.
... you talk about it so much that even your browncoat best friend gets sick of you
... not only did you manage to convert your other two anti sci-fi best friends, but one of them now has the hugest crush on Adam Baldwin, even though she's engaged
...You rent everything or buy every DVD with a BDH in even if you dont like the actual thing or its only a really small part.
All true, but all I can think of right now.



I love Wash! Bring back Wash!

Hey, I have a nice big crush on Jewel Staite going on, and I'm married! I just introduced my friend to Firefly and he's gone nuts for it - and has proven his good taste by also developing a huge crush on Jewel.

I think it's gotta be hard for a Browncoat to not have some sort of a crush on at least one member of the crew.

Hey smartbutdumbblonde!!!!! Have a brownie - they're really good. Where's Followmal??? You need a Browncoat - and the damn warehouse is locked.

To get back on track:
... you used to offer cups of tea to any upset friends - now you offer Firefly.


And (on a side note) you know your Drama performance is beginning to consume your every (non-Firefly) thought when... your brother wakes you up in the middle of the night to tell you that you've been reciting your monologue over and over again, preventing him from going to sleep. (We have really thin walls).

Just a gal out on the rim writing tales.


You state your breakfast preferences by announcing that "The Living Legend Needs Eggs."

When you go to the bank, you describe it as "a job".

When you drive out of your driveway, you refer to it as "clearing atmo".

You've googled "Shau Nu".

You clean your guns on the kitchen table. And it turns your wife on.

The sound of a revolver being cocked get you hot.

You refer to your bedroom as "your bunk", your kitchen as "the galley" and the restroom as "the head".

You call your husband "Jayne" during spectacular intimate moments.

When you take your car in to have the shocks replaced, you tell the mechanic there's a problem with your "stabilizers."

You actually attempt to create recipies for Mudder's Milk, fried protein and - God forbid - Fruity Oatey Bars.

You refer to your husband's car as the "spare shuttle".

You look in the sports equipment store for fingerless gloves.

You cannibalize your kid's plastic toy guns to make a convincing replica of "Vera".

You convince your friend in Japan to send you appropriate iron-ons for your Jayne t-shirts.

Your spouse comes in after a night with the boys and you pronounce, "Husband, you been drinkin'!".

Petite red-headed women with big bosoms make you nervous.

The term "boob" has taken on an entirely new connotation.

You've changed the lyricas to Annie Lenox's song "Missionary Man" to "Mercenary Man".

You cross your arms, drum your fingers and glare at authority figures.



One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

There's this little game called Worms Armageddon.

So I'm watching River the worm drop a stick of dynamite on George W Bush and Ken Livingstone (mayor of London)'s heads and worrying if I should have moved Inara the worm instead because she's probably going to get shoved into the water before she gets her turn.... and I start thinking, "What the ruttin' hell am I on?"

If you are so depressed that you haven't met any Browncoats in person! Hye any of you fellow browncoats live in Vermont USA?

If you dance River's dance in its entirety in the middle of your livingroom.

If you dream of Serenity and Firefly once a week and then record them all. Some turning into fanfics.

If you wish you sould get your hands on a t-shirt or a real browncoat or SOMETHING that would let others know you are a browncoat. (sigh)

If you hum the ballad of Serenity at work so much your boss starts to whistle the tune and she has no idea what she is doing!

If you say "shiny" to your english instructor when she hands back your final paper with a wonderful grade and she replys " Also I can kill you with my brain" and you grin back like an idiot.

you walk into your favourite cd store; and must fight the urge of buying multiple copies of the BDM and BDS... (they're sooooo cheap now :D, and best sellers {apparently, but the sudden price drop did make me check some other popular {and not just stickered ones} titles, and much to my surprise, many had also been dropped in price})

You get home and wish that you had brought all the copies that were on the shelves...

(PS. does any1 have an idea why the box set is now coming in a plastic case; it appears as tho they've dropped the cardboard casing for a cheaper more compact design, altho not as cool. I at first thought it was a speacial edition, and pounced only to discover, no, it was the same and was mightily disapointed that they had dropped the cardboard casing for such a crap case.)

For some reason it takes the prof. literally saying: "So Dante had all these levels of hell and said if you are doin somethin with little boys in the corner you go to this type of hell" to remember the quote about the special hell. Then start laughing at the irony of timing.

... when walking to the cinema with your best (Browncoat) friend, you manage to make six seperate Firefly references in about ten minutes. Then, when you're in the cinema, people are talking behind you. You lean over and casually say:

Aren't they... special?

You both precede to dissolve in a fit of giggles. Luckily, it was at a funny point in the movie - and nobody else noticed.

You spend two hours reading through this page left with the warm reassuring feeling that; there are people just like you.

When your cousin recomends Serenity to you, you watch it once and then instantly watch it again. Later that night you buy the box set.

You get the box set and decide to watch one episode a day to make it last longer, you end up watching all of them in one day ending at 3am.

You realise that the episodes are set out, top left, bottom left, top right, bottom right, not left to right like you origionally thought, you decide you have to watch them all again.

You volunteer to bring a large collection of films on holiday for your family and "forget" to bring any other DVD's apart for the box set and serenity as a feendish plan to convert them all.

You find out that someone in your physics class is a browncoat then you involve the whole class in discussing the idea of core containment in nuclear powered ships.

You watch the box set with subtitals just to fully understand what they are all saying.

You begin writing your own fic completley forgetting you hate story writing and everything to do with english.

You imagine being the 11th character and how you could save the lives of Wash, Book, Nandy and Tracey while avoiding "out of gas" after working out there would not be enough oxygen on the ship for you and mal to survive.

When converting friends who refuse to buy the box set, just because i say it is sooooo good we have a signed aggreement that if i lend them my copy they return it else they go to the special hell.

The rest of your freinds just retreat into a semi fetal position at any time when you mention anything firefly related.

Yay im all done now....

There's a whole thread about our heros as psychological symbols. I'm sure you could sell it!

I have new ones for myself, too!

Bought a long brown leather coat.
Ordered patches to sew onto said coat.
Read many debates on which way the Browncoat insignia patch should go, eventually watched the opening of the pilot frame by frame in order to get it right (upside-down triangle, right side up star, as it happens)
Tortured fingers in order to sew patches on.
Bought a Serenity logo tee to wear under coat.
Wears coat everywhere possible now, even though summer weather is starting.
Is very sad that no passerby has commented on it yet.
Can only be happy that she is not the only one!

...you walk into the ice cream shop with your friends, say to the guy working there "have you seen firefly or serenity?" the guy says "saw serenity and loved it, haven't watched firefly yet." you spend litteraly the next 3 1/2 hours eating ice cream and talking to the guy aout the BDM and convincing him to buy the series.

...you go back to the ice cream shop the next day, there is a different guy working there. you ask him if he saw the movie or the show. he says no and you insist he does so. he says maybe. you go to best buy the next day. you are looking at dvds and the same guy walks up to you (he works at best buy too!) and says "hey look, its serenity" referring to you.

You are a Browncoat if......

You have a DVD night and spend the majority of it in half-screams with your best friend because you have just discovered she is a closet fan and you didn't know it.

Your at work and you mention you need to by a comic from the store (at nine in the morning) and the person next to you replies with "I have to by the Serenity comic". You then spend the next 8 hours of your shift in near hysteria talking everything FF, Serenity and Joss.

You spend the last 10 minutes of your shift bluetoothing the "Ballad of Serenity" and "Hero of Canton" to afore mention workmate.

You watch a Southern-accented movie, like Sweet Home Alabama, and all you can hear is Nathan's voice not that of the actual actors.

You own a bumper sticker that reads, "I am a leaf on the wind; watch how I soar."

Your uptight boss knows what you mean when you say, "Shiny!"

You waitress and say "Shiny!" to your tables searching for fellow browncoats.

You find yourself rummaging through your father's closet (i'm a girl) and taking out his huge Hawiian shirt before going to see Slither (just to see Nathan).

You see Slither and yell "Go Captian Tightpants!" in the theatre. Then you ponder what makes the Special Hell so gorram special.

And I dragged my semi-browncoat boyfriend (though he did get annoyed when I kept quoting Firefly and then proceeded to tell him that Nathan "oozes sex-appeal from every pore").

...During your frenc writing exam the only name you could think of giving your made-up singer was "River Tam".

...Whenever you ask your friends to guess what you did last night they always answer "you watched Serenity" and they are always right.

... You've created a conversion chain-reacter (ie. You convert oen frind, who converst another, who converts another...)

... You have a firefly/serenity costume party for your 18th birthday.

...Simon guest-stars in all of your dreams, no matter what they're about.

...you have gone up to numerous people and told them that their coat is kind of a brownish colour. You yelled and hugged one of your converted friends when he replied "It was on sale"

...Despite being a Buffy fan of epic proportions you can't help looking at caleb and seeing Mal.

...You threatened to break up with your boyfiend of 18months after he told you never to use "faux chinese" again (All I said was "dong ma?")

...you quote from outtakes and bonus features as much as from actual episodes/BDM (see my name)

...For your boyfriend's first birthday since you've been together you get him the firefly series. Later that year you get him Serenity for Christmas.

...you're already planning setting up a Firefly society when you start university (Also, I'm going to try and blag my way into the already existant Chinese society)

That is exactly why I should never have kids.

I MUST know who that is! Someone, please tell me who she is so I can kill her!

Side note: My cousin, a huge Buffy fan, actually owns the firely series and hasn't watched it. Does that strike anyone as criminal?
