I dont consider myself a Dork...I consider those who consider me a Dork, Dorks.

I got everybody at work Sayin "Shiney"...I just grin...I mean these are rough tough sailors barely educated enough to sign a pay check.All they know in life is where to find prostitutes and whiskey so watchin a fiction show would be "Dorky" ( and thats puttin it nice).

But there in again I am "El Capitain" so what I say goes or you goes overboard.

Saying that God authored confusion by creating Lucifer is like saying my sniper rifle goes out all by itself and shoots people 2 miles away so I dont get into trouble.

Ha, I'll second that motion.

We really are an odd conglomeration, aren't we? We've got sailors, business men--and women-- students, kids and on and on and on. SHINY! This thread is fun. It makes me realize just how at-home I am here.

Wacky fun!

I was comforting a friend recently as she was going through a rough time. In the middle of doing so I actually gave her the 'love' speech from the end of Serenity. Forget that the speech has no real world references, after I was done she just sat there in stunned silence! I think she felt a little better because at least she wasn't retarded like me.

I find I'm actually more suspending my daily activities, in favor of the 'verse, rather than relating them to it; does that count, too?

LOL! In fact, LOL at a bunch of these which hit awfully close to home. The wedding... The day care... The RADIO! What a wunnerful thread.

I have to say I can relate. I am a high school history teacher and I have found myself using Mal-isms from time to time.

ie

"(student), your mouth is talking, you might want to see to that."

"why are we discussing what's already been decided?"

That's totally awesome! You gave her the speech? Did she realize what it was from, or did you have to tell her? No, really, you aren't retarded--because if you are, then that means I am too, and I don't generally like myself when I'm retarded.

Using lines from the show is an unintentional constant in my life. Inadvertantly relating real-life situations to scenes from the show/movie drives my freinds, family and the strangers around me crazy. My brother is sick of being called the "man-ape-gone-wrong-thing" as are some of the people I work with. My boyfriend has actually forbidden me to talk about it when we're together, though that doesn't stop me from referring to it when I email him. My boss wants to borrow the movie from me, but I don't think I can let it go for that long. Aargh! Obsessed? No, not me! Never!

Wacky fun!
