Ok, the time has come. I'm ready to tackle the Washisms shirt. As always these shirts are made for the fans so it's up to the fans what "Washisms" do you want on there? These are a few ideas I have, I know they are not the direct quotes yet. I'll do that research later. My goal is to fit between 15 & 20 "Washisms" on the shirt. I'll post the front of the shirt tonight.

if ya don't know what the "-isms" shirts are here the links to a few. Thw Washisms will be very similar in style to the Kayleeisms. Logo on front & "-isms" list on the back.

Most of the interrogation scene in Bushwhacked...especially the "Where her legs meet her back" part...
"What this marriage needs is one less husband!" I don't know why, but there is a vastly serious side to Wash that comes up when he, or those he cares about are hurt...and I think its a great balance in the character.
"I could always say I was flying on accident" I'm not sure how that one goes, but something like that...I like that one.
"How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just curious." And the quote about River "Congress/With the Beast" leading up to this one is great too!!!
Kaylee: "What's so damn important about being proper? It don't mean nothing out here in the black."
Simon: "It means more out here. It's all I have..."

Mmm. Wife soup.
Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?
I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not married, somebody not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinky.
Okay, everybody not talking about sex, in here. Everyone else, out there.
You want a slinky dress, I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress?
Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower. Somewhat less attractive now that she's all corpsified and gross.

Hey!
We can't forget the "Some people juggle geese!"
And maybe, from HOG "Come on, we all know I'm the funny one."
And this one might have been said "I can be terse. Once in flightschool, I was laconic."
Oh, and the interrogation scene, maybe the extended one from the gag reel, with the hilarious... "When I met Zoe, I had a rash. There is no place on that woman I wouldn't put my tongue. I wasn't in to hairy woman before I met Zoe, but she turned me around on that."
And maybe his poem for Zoe's funeral?
BTW, these t-shirts are great. My Kayleeisms, Jayneisms and Riverisms ones arrived yesterday, there fantastic!! Im wearing Riverisms right now. Thanks StillShiny!

Dude, the thought that a fan like PsychicRiver who has met & been that close to Summer has one of my shirts just thrills me to no end. I've thought about even sending one to each of the respective heroes, but I can't ever get to anyplace to meet em.
Well, you all have given some great ideas. I want to pay respects to the interrogation & torture scene but still keep my "family friendly" products. I'm sure I'll find a way. I could always make a second one a bit more "edgy" as a custom.

Maybe it's a little too unlike Wash, but I always liked: "Bastards' not gonna get days."
also like the one from the arguement on the bridge with Mal in Out of Gas which I don't recall exactly here but,: "Because high school pranks are fun when you're about to die!."

You could lessen the "family-friendly" impact by breaking the quote up some. Put "Definitely have to
say it was the legs" then put some other quotes, then "And where they meet" then some more quotes followed by "That whole area" then some more quotes followed by "And the part above it" (or however the lines actually go). With the lines split up they're not quite as explicit, but the people "in the know" will still get it. And the disconectedness of the quotes will get people to ask - and open up opportunities to talk about the show.

Well here's some of Wash's lines that struck me...:
"Work, work, work..."
"Isn't she quaint? I'm just not hungry."
"Okay, when did this become not funny?"
"I'm gonna play with some of these dials and stuff. I might, you know, steer."
"Whoa. Good myth."
"No. Well, yes. But I actually like that in a woman."
"Who is this diabolical master of disguise?"
"I want to hear about the natty thing."
"I guess the news that we're all gonna be purple and bloated and fetal in a few hours has made me little snippy. "
"Just means I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all."
"Yeah, we need to start dealing in those black-market beagles"
"But not all boring like she made it sound."
"can I use "Companion" as a verb?"
"There's obeying happening right under my nose"
"We'll be in our bunk."
"Wacky fun..."
"Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction!"
"We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... This Land."
"I think we should call it... your grave!"
"Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
"Ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die!"
"Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything was right, we'd be in jail."
"Of course he's tense. He's awake."
"Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?"
"Zoe's out on a deal, I always worry. So it's not out of my way"
"We all know I'm the funny one."
"Oh my god, it's grotesque! Oh, and there's something in a jar."
"A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything."

That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Enjoy. Remember I can do some customs by request. Made for Fans by a Fan!
I would do one a little edgier, the interrogation & torture scene by request, but I would have to post it with a PG-13 rating.
