why not? :) it's a usage of a quote in everyday conversation isn't it?

....dammit...I used a quote yesterday, and I totally can't remember what it was. :-P I'll think of it. ;)

I think alot of us probably quote firefly more than we realize... it just gets worked into your way of speaking.
I use alot of jayne quotes... "... worth of a turd". I like his response to the doctors question about tearing apart the infirmary to find tape... "apparently..." there's just something about the way he says it that makes me giggle. I've also started doing that arms crossed/finger tapping thing when he was being questioned by alliance in bushwacked.
I used "big happy family" today at work... and I'm with BULLET0IN0THE0BRAINPAN0SQUISH, I use the GRR ARGH! alot!!!

Isn't firefly just the best thing in the world?!?!

Some other faves...
"looks like this is the place"
"to-wa-ba-who?"
"to much hair"
"Noahs ark is a problem..."
"I cried like a baby, a hungry angy baby"
"you're all kinds a pleasin'"
"wa... is it Christmas? What happened about me?"

And one of the best ever...
"How drunk was I last night? ... I don't know I passed out..."

Most commonly: "Looks like," followed by "Now that's just downright unsettlin'." When I say "looks like," I'm not even quoting Wash any more, it's just one of the phrases I use.

Alas, "shiny," and "gorram" have not entered my usual vocabulary, although I do say "frack" a lot, to borrow another invented swear word.

lolololololololol. major uses of quotes at drill today.
Me and a friend from my shop went to go visit our friend Ryan (avid firefly/serenity fan, lent me Firefly when I hadn't seen it) in his shop. Well, my friend Pete said we were all folk in the same situation or sumthin like that, and Ryan goes "War's long done, we're all just folk now." to which I replied "Listen up! We're coming down there to empty that vault!' -- 'yeah, when you give me your authorization password.'" then after a pause because we had no sound effects, Ryan said "..okay!" and we started laughing, no one else there had any idea what we were talking about, lol.
While we were visiting, the conversation SOMEHOW took a very inappropriate turn, like, worse than Jayne inapporpriate if that's possible (everyone else there was of the male variety, lol, not saying that all men are pigs, just a minority of the ones in the room). One of the guys said something very wrong, and Ryan said "that's why I never kiss 'em on the mouth." He and I were, again, the only ones laughing.
During the wrongness of the context of the conversation, one of the guys said something that almost made me throw up in my mouth a little bit, and I just looked at him, shook my head, and said "I'm trying to think of a way you could be cruder...it's just not coming." Then gave myself props for the perfect usage. :D fun times, fun times, it was a shiny day.

Shiny is always a classic and sometime somewhere in life I swear I will have an occasion to use:
"I shaved my beard for you...DEVIL WOMAN!"
I shaved my full beard for my wife years ago when we first met bu I grew a goatee and still have it as I hated having a clean shaven face.Now if she tries to get me to shave THAT then I may pull that one of Monty's out.

Used a Wash quote yesterday :-P A kid walked into my classics class with a Jayne-like hat (only it wasn't orange) and I said to one of my classmates "a man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything." though fortunately the kid didn't hear me (i woulda felt bad, 'specially since he doesn't know the series), but still, he looked like he loved that hat, and I just had to say it.

Anyway, my absolute favorite quote is when Mal is talking to Saffron- "Someone tries to kill you...you try and kill 'em right back!"

Shiny is good too!

I use shiny, gorram and gorramit a lot plus really like 'fei hua'. When I want to swear I usually say 'wode ma' or 'goushi'. Oddly enough no one says anything when I sneak any Mandarin in the conversation but they stare at me when I talk about 'the special hell'. Huh, what does that say about them? But the best thing about using quotes from our Big Damn Heroes is when someone asks about what I just said and I get to talk about Firefly/Serenity. Blank looks prompt a loaning of the DVDs. Yes, "mine is an evil laugh".

Drill today. The same friend who introduced me to Firefly paid a visit to our shop (right around the end of the duty day), talked for a bit, then I decided it was time to leave (it was now after duty hours) and as I was in a happy mood, I was smiling. As I'm walking towards the door, he says "Cat, you're too happy. Stop being so cheerful." And I just smiled at him and said "I don't think there's a power in ther 'Verse can keep me from being cheerful." He laughed as I was leaving. ^_^

First off let me say that I am a New York Yankees fan who wears his colors proud, and I am susceptible to road rage, and some dumbasses want to stay close to my ¾ ton truck in a snow storm for safety, but not behind me. They want to be right in front of me. I slow my truck down from 65 mph to 55 in snow storms because a vehicle with a high center of gravity like mine is not as stable on the road even while in four wheel drive, and people will drive at a higher rate of speed until they pass me then slow to 55 to be right in front of me. To combat this when I see it is about to happen, I speed my truck up until they pass and then slow down so there should be enough distance between us, but some people don’t want that and I am beginning to hear myself say “I swear by my pretty blue bonnet I will end you.” What scares me is that someday I might just actually push one of these people off the road one day if provoked, because one day a few years back I tried pushing an unmarked State Trooper off the road for f***ing with me on the highway. I didn’t get arrested or even a ticket for that incident, but I did get a very stern talking to by the Trooper, and I did talk to my councilor at the VA about this, and I have gotten better, but sometimes I feel my old self emerging. If people do not understand my quote New York Yankees caps are blue

I rarely swear out loud, but I'm always swearing in my head and gorramn/gorrammit is now appearing with some frequency.

My friend always likes to say we're going to die when we jaywalk. I always reply with "We're too pretty to die!"

I also say "Grr Argh" alot, usually when I'm dragging myself off to go study.

I totally say "Grrr arrgghh" all the time.

I try to pull out the off the wall statements. The other day I asked my roomie, "What's the math on that?" very Mal-style. Then later I was told her I would do the dishes, and I said "I am ready with the fearsome dish washing" very Wash-style. It's all just so gorram quotable!!!
