Good shall rule over this thread and we shall call it this thread.
There is some serious weirdness afoot in some other un-named threads. Lets fill this one with shiny-happy-goodness while being our "true selves". I actually have no ideas for discussion, so I'll just pull a random:

Whenever I'm having a bad day, I pop Firefly in. The second I see our lovely Serenity, I smile and feel like I'm "home".


(Also, Thanks Traveler and Tristan for the kind words, and not calling me an idiot.)

I declare this thread the thread of hopelessness. This is a thread that spawns sorrow and and pain. This is a thread that makes the saints want to vomit.


They call me the lonely, angry one.

Ranting on this board is the only way I can feel powerful.

Now you got it. Sometimes we have to fight the good fight. You have won. This is your victory.
Be good to others and you will find good people.

I am 54 years old I have seen a lot so take my word. The people here are the best. You talk to he ones you like. As time goes by you will learn who you enjoy being with.

Your response tells you will make friends.
Don't be afraid to ask any questions. We talk about episodes, characters, plots. We even have threads that are just for fun.

Onthedrift, i feel the same way...unfortunately, my brother is currently in possession of my Firefly DVD's (I'm trying to convert him...hey, it could happen!). As sad as it may sound, my desktop is Mal, and I have the theme .mp3 on the computer wheneevr I need a lift. That, and this site helps...lots of shiny browncoats to chat with and make you feel at home!

You can only talk so much about a show that had only 14 episodes. That is if you're someone who lacks true imagination, like me.

Thanks guys! Luckily converting my siblings and father was extremely sucessful, they have their own DVDs.

And another random bit of shiny:

http://www.crimsondark.com/index.php?view=comic&strip_id=30

I'm sure this has been linked already, but in case you missed it: a webcomic (I know nothing about the webcomic itself) pays homage to Firefly. His comparison to Shakespeare below is heartwarming to me. After all Quality, not quantity.

Alas, my own conversions are not going so well...the wife introduced me. She's a fan of Buffy and Angel, and had a passing interest in Firefly, but, in her own words, I have "outgeeked" her... As for my brother, he borrowed the DVD's because I kept talking about it...he liked it, but I am pretty sure he won't become a hardcore Browncoat. That has not stopped me, though...I may end up just going door-to-door in the neighborhood!

Thanks for the link...I'll have to check out the whole thing. Now, I must go to bed. Thank you for the chat, and rest assured, it's not always like this in here!

Hey Onthedrift! I am so sorry that the trolls got you... I have had a few weeks a really tough stuff to deal with and here at FFF.net I have my very own FFFfamily who either don't know about some of my issues so I can be myself without explaining my sudden change in appearance (or absence from activities) and some of the shiniest, bestest friends in the 'verse!

They absolutely made my birthday last week and have given me heaps of giggles when I needed it most!

Glad you started a good thread - of course all the good folk will be drawn to it...

TRISTAN- My husband says the same thing about me all the time even though he does have more Enterprise models. I have yet to own a Serenity model. Cant wait to get my hands on one!
As for conversions, my mom loves it but I dont think she's willing to go the same distance I have. By the way, I also have thought about going door-to-door. stay shiny!

Hey Phoenix Rose - it's good to see you again! I love the shiney dancin' emote!!

Thanks traveler - you made my day with your comments!! I love your posts too... do you really travel around all the time or are you mostly settled in one spot for a while? I hear you ride a bike (a real one not a pedal-powered one) so are you always on the move... sounds really cool! I'm a gypsy, but only in the sense that I have no fixed address at the moment - I do a lot of house sitting and collect my mail at a post office box near the house I work at! (I'm a nanny) Always have the 'Travel-bug'...never can afford it...

Ilove to see you FMF! YOu make my day once again!! Love all you shiney people!! Especilly Onthedrift for starting this thread

Sorry, meant traveling on the site. Seems I'm Talking to you and Rose on two different threads.

But I'm keeping up. Yes I have been A biker for years. I'm on my third bike. Finally got a Harley ten years ago. Runs fine. Has seen many states and Canada. Got more bugs in my teeth than the population of China. Have some interesting stories about some of those trips.

I have no story to top that.

I'm sorry. I just went through a rough patch here.

River6213 was playing games. Chased a new person who I beleave is rather young. Well most everyone here is young to me. But lurk through the more recent threads and follow the trail.
Not pleasant.

Where do these people come from.

Why hurt people when you canput a smile on their face instead. I don't understand.

Hi Traveler - I noticed that River thing - didn't realise he/she was specifically targeting a newbie... wish there was a button we could push. I know it is nice to be on here sometimes for the annonymity as it makes one feel free to share in ways one might not if talking with new friends face to face, but that shouldn't give a person the go-ahead to be mean... maybe meaner than if they met someone - say at a party or some event with lots of people who know one another. I've been studiously treating him/her as a troll and paying no attention - if I realised the 'targeting' issue then I might have stalked a countered - not directly but in an equally opposing vein (if you know what I mean???) That is for every mean thing I'd say something not-mean and more (and I'd mean it coz this site has that effect on me!)

I am fiercly loyal to my friends wherever I know them from and if anyone upsets one of them... you do not want to meet me dealing with that person!!

It's been lovely chatting - I'm enjoying getting to know people here - bestest thing I've ever done on line is join this site!

DQBaby76, after getting the "Done the Impossible" DVD, my next purchase will be of some sort of model of Serenity. Just not sure which one yet...

Traveler, PR is sometimes hard to follow...a few of us live in two or three threads and spend time bouncing between them! Never know where some will end up!
On a side note, my stepfather and wife both work for the Harley shop down here...I get to see all kinds of motorcycles all the time! Still don't have one of my own, though

I can barely keep up with myself. Can't imagine keeping up with more.

I'm assuming people have read my "Haken please read" thread.

Wish someone could give me a wishing plank so I could wish for a day without the crazyness of last night.

aww sure now she can't be a rock, i've known some very nice rocks who could hold up their side of a very interesting conversation indeed, and now they'll be tainted by association.

every time i meet a rock, i'll be asking myself inside 'what if it's secretly a troll' and i just won't be able to open up to them in the same carefree manner as before my years of open human/rock relations are coming to a close...

Oddbodkins - you ARE a rock! And in the best sense of the word! There ain't no trolls living in rock-shells - no! No! No! I dealt with any and all rocks that were really trolls-masquerading-as-rocks so feel free to spill your guts to any nice, kindly looking rock you meet - I promise it's not a troll...

Traveler - you must be exhausted... travelling from thread to thread spreading the shiney word! (& I don't mean either...) You are a rock too... and in the best way I know how to mean it - strong, wise, and according to Oddsbods - a very good listener!

On the Drift - love you and love your shiney thread - I guess I should bestow the title of 'Good Rock' on you too! You already feel like part of our shiney family!!

And FMF - I love you more than I even love rocks - especially as you worked Duran Duran into your biographic speach on your thread the other day - gorgeous... just gorgeous... (still draw the line at marrying you though )

Love you all to bits! (my Rocks!) Magdalena x x x x

"I love my Captain!"

I wish we could reclaim the 'troll' label. I'm a Pratchett fan, and every time I see the word, I think of Detritus (Sgt in the City Watch - really, Jayne as a mobile rockery)

In fact we could use such a person on the thread as a 'splatter' - like a bouncer, but with more force.

I say we find another term for these cao ni xiao gou.

*gasp* anti-siliconism on FFF.net!!! For shame!!!

One Buffy board I went to used to call mischief makers bazoars, after a very annoying demon from an episode of Buffy everyone agreed was pretty awful.
