I am prepared to apologize and call the others for a negotiation of terms. Fact is, I can't stay mad at you for long. so. Perhaps you would be willing to bring your flag making skills over to the treehouse and join our band of merry men and women?

Well, given that most of those supporting this thread seem to have a fatalistic viewpoint not seen since the Aztecs, a peace treaty sounds sensible. Plus of course you know that all Kaylee vs Simon combats end up with us making up and one tending the other's wounds. For the treaty itself, I suggest that either I bring a tribute of two good suggestions for what the switches are to your thread or we merge both our threads into one giant "I'm Not Going To Be Depressed About The Delay Because I Know What The Three Little Switches Do" thread and gang up on the Firefly Questionnaire.
But instead of rubber bands, let's invade the Eddie Izzard way. "Do you have a flag? No? Then you belong to us, those are the rules."

No flag, no country! *plants the Not'Depressedian flag in the ground.*
And since I took your flag already, this thread now belongs to the Not'Depressedians! Take that, Switchers!

Meanwhile, back @the ranch, here's the backstory:
Wash, like every pilot in the 'verse, learned to fly in simulators. In particular, he learned to fly Serenity in a Firefly simulator.
As to what the three little switches do (may I have the envelope, please), the answer is . . .
Nothing
On Serenity, those three little switches, or the subsystems to which they are connected, are broken. Wash doesn't remember what specifically they are supposed to do, but he does remember when & under what circumstances he's supposed to flick 'em. So he does.
So far, they haven't crashed.
As an exercise for the student, watch Firefly again, looking for the expression on Wash's face during those rare moments when Serenity handles funny, but he doesn't know why.

Woohoo!" thread is already property of the "Im am not going to be delayed anout the depressed club!", so hopefully I have their protection. And you only want a treaty cos you've realised we outnumber you, Deirdre! NEVER! Because YOU stole my knitting needles! Btw TheRealMe, thank you very much for taxing them from him. And BethyB, where are you? Get in here, and bring the wooly shackles we made!

Oh, thank god! No, wait. Thank ThatWeirdGirl! I went back to our old clubhouse/thread to pick up my knitting needles, and when I was there they cut the lights, and knocked me out. They draged me here threw me in this room, and they tortured me...with my own knitting needles! *Sobs*
*PsychicRiver lies bound and gagged in a dark room filled with...spam? PsychicRiver sighs (I don't like spam!) PR's clothes are bloodied, with cuts all over his body. One single and lonely tear rolls down PR's cheek, just before he hears footsteps outside the door. The door opens, casting light on Pr's face. PR looks up and his eyes widen as he sees his torturer has returned, who is wearing...a gyneacologist mask? And wielding none other than PR's own (now rather bloodied) knitting needles.*
HELP!
I'm nearly out of M&M's and reeces pieces!
