This was a thread on here a while back and I figured it needed to be up again. Quite simply you finish the sentence with either random ideas or personal experiences where you've seen the verse in every day life. Enjoy.

Ummm , yep , 'jello' with chopsticks...Now there's a manful challenge...Been there , done that...

You know you're obsessed with Firefly when...

Your friends wanna always know , " Now , WHICH EPISODE is this ? " ...and when you speak all the characters' dialogue , they say , " What are you , like...an UNDERSTUDY ? " , to which you have to honestly concede , " YEP ! " .

But they ALWAYS laugh at the same lines , EVERY TIME !

Or , you see a young , goatee-d fellow at a restaurant or auto parts store , and you ask your buddy , " Now , doesn't he look just like JAYNE ? " , but you subsequently ask the goatee-d one , " Anyone ever tell you that you look like someone Famous , like Adam Baldwin , maybe ? "

Guilty. 'cept I only wish I could swear in Chinese.

You know you're a brown coat when ...

You think it's shiny when people recognize Serenity on your computer wall paper. Or if they don't and they still say "That's a cool looking spaceship."

You prefer to wear your brown coat outside even if it's a little too warm for it.
