sry i just think that's so cool that we have a Miranda in our solar system ^_^

You know you're a Firefly Fan when you're talking about something that pisses you off, and when you curse everyone looks at you weird -- and only afterwards do you realize you said "gorram" instead of "goddamn" -- and subsequently realize that they have no idea what the word "gorram" is supposed to mean

-when you think anyone who has not seen or does not like Firefly (my boyfriend, for one) is a heathen.

-when you can listen to the Firefly or Serenity soundtrack and know exactly what is going on or what is being said during a given measure of music. *i'm a nerd*

when you have bought one extra set of Firefly to loan out to friends just so that they see what the 'verse is all about.

And then you get upset that they don't return your gorram loaner set fast enough so that you can loan it out again, so you go out and buy another loaner set.

Boondoggle

I brought two of each to Iraq and never got them back. Was pissed at the gorram morons but maybe they'll will become browncoats, so it's ok. Plus the more I buy adds to the amount the franchise takes in.

-you only refer to hot dogs as dogs.

-you typically brandish your weapon with a manly "BWAH!" -Possible sexual connotations of this statement not intended... I think-

-you add a Ni before your Howdy. -I don't do this personally but I've noticed it's catching on-

-you got my last one. -Though you might just speak chinese-

-you have the Fruity Oaty bar jingle as a ringtone.

-you can't help but atleast THINK 'Shiny, let's be bad guys" when you unzip your jacket.

-You have a greater respect for Kevin Smith for his comment "Dude, you don't want to f*** with the Browncoats, man. They're cheering a show that isn't even on." Even if you never really liked his movies that much. -I'll admit most have made me laugh a bit-

You try to subtly and not so subtly try to spread the word and convert everyone at work.

Position the box set of Firefly at eye level every time you go into Target.

You watch Desperate Housewives just for a glimpse of Nathan Fillion. And any other project our BDHs are in.

You become friends with shiny people all over the world through a TV show message board. Then you arrange to meet them at conventions around the country and have no fear because you know that they are good folks.

You write a fanfic because you want more adventures from the BDH.

You wish Kaylee worked at your local garage every time your car dies on you.

You'd go back to church if the Shepherd was leading the flock.

You've never been to a whore house, but if it was full of Companions like Inara, you'd spend all you had and come out with a big grin that'd last for weeks.

You're taking Chinese lessons just so you know what the hell was said on the show. And then your Chinese teacher tells you they got it all wrong! Gorramn it!

You watch anything the BDH actors are in even if its crap like Despaarte Housewives.

You wish it was five hundred years in the future and you lived on Persephone, wearing a bowler hat, and flower in your button hole, and were King of Your Sad Little Hill.

LOLZ there have been a few times when i've been tempted to do that.

when your boyfriend (or girlfriend), who is not a firefly fan *steam comes out ears* can tell when you're quoting something from firefly just by the way you say it, and doesn't even flinch when you use 'gorram' in a sentence.

sidenote: i find it hilarious that andy can tell when i'm quoting firefly, he's seen maybe two episodes, and yet he never misses a quote :-P

You write and co-admin a Firefly RP on Storycrafter.com for over a year, despite substandard *koff*whiney*koff* cast members and a GM going missing.

The only party you hang out in at a fan-run sci-fi convention is the Firefly party, AND you win third place in their trivia game (there was math involved, if not for the math, I had a shot at second).

You nearly buy a pair of shoes that blend a brown cami background and dragon motif embroidery in pink because they look like something Kaylee would wear, even though the color pink is adverse to your personal artistic and design sensibilities. (Sadly, they didn't have my size.)

Give away copies of the Firefly DVD that were bought during sales at Target to them as require the correct order of all things Firefly.

Coming here whenever I need a Firefly fix.

*sigh* I'm sure there's more.

On your way to work, you drive by a sign that says 'Serenity Farm' and the first thing that pops into your head is, We're gonna try a barn swallow!

A few miles before that, you saw a sign that said 'Deaver Associates' and you momentarily freaked.

A few miles before THAT, you saw a license plate that said 'SHNON1' and thought for deadened sure it was short for 'Sihnon' until it disappointingly occurred to you that it was probably 'Shannon'.

All the way to work, back home, and everywhere you go, you're flaunting your chief fandom with a license plate that reads 'CAPNMAL.'

(And you get in and out of your vehicle proudly boasting your brown coat and Browncoat/Serenity/Outlaw Sci-Fi t-shirts.)

Thanks! Jeanette Lee is a GODDESS. She's passionate about her play and an absolute joy to watch.

She has expressed a desire for acting as well, and considering that pool-playing is done in the 'verse, she would fit in quite well here.

Can you imagine Jayne watching her play?

You know you're a Firefly Fan when....

(first of all, I work in a research lab and so I have to wear gloves all the time, and they are blue or green)

While staring at a co-worker wearing blue gloves, you faintly chant "Two by two......hands of blue...." and then run away screaming.

Also, you know you are a Firefly Fan when you refuse to wear the blue gloves and insist that green ones in your size are ordered, even if there are already blue ones in your size....

I'm a fan and a teacher. I have a browncoat lanyard that I wear my keys to my classroom on, and when asked why I don't wear a school lanyard I promptly reply "I love my captain."

I have justified using Firefly in a lessonplan on Epic Heroes, converting a few more students to Firefly.

I can actually say in class "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal" and half the room roars like a dinosaur.

Take my faith, kill my belief, make me live just like a thief. True to mine I'll still be....you can't take the sky from me.
