I don't think it did... it just got annonyingly close. He got to something like 10, then Bloth got half of them, then he stole 'em back and got 2 more... in any event, after a tease or two, he had 11 or 12 and the show just ended. ...It was probably on Fox.

Which is saddest? Quoting the show on a bus? wearing my brown coat? or the fact that someone quoted from the show to me making my day?
Ah yes, but did you reply "it was on sale"? :)
Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.

Those moments are awesome! I had one this October. It blew me away. A friend and I were shopping for a package to send to a friend (a fellow Browncoat) who's currently studying in Italy, and we thought it'd be great to send her some Fireflyish things - jacks and toy dinosaurs. Like the geeks that we are, we're standing in the toy section in Walmart holding toy dinosaurs and having the following conversation:
My friend: This is a fertile land, and we shall call it, this land!
Me: I think we should call it your grave!
And some random guy walks by us with an amused smile to add: Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
And as he walks away he notes: Can't wait for the movie!
We stood there dumbfounded for a bit before there was any spazzing - it remains as one of the coolest moments in recent memory. ;) Ah, Browncoat solidarity. I can't wait for mass parties come April 22.

NO! He was really pretty and I'm really shy. So I giggled like a teenager, blushed and turned away.
It was in Bath UK.. and if he's here... um. Sorry for the spazzing. I'm taking pills for it.

I too say the usual Gorram it and Shiny, but the great thing is that people ask me what that means, and then I can tell them about the greatest show/movie ever. The same with my "Shiny. Let's be bad guys." t-shirt. Hopefully I am creating a whole new set of Browncoats!

I say gorram and shiny quite a lot. Gorram doesn't get noticed so much but last night my mum told me to stop saying shiny. She says that I can't use shiny in that way while I debate that I can. She says that shiny can mean only things that shine, I say that things that shine are always good things (like gold and silver) therefore shiny does indeed aply. Hmmm, does that make any sense to anyone other than myself? Either way I'm trying to use some other words that I used to say alot pre-Firefly around my mum rather than shiny (although it's taking a surprising amount of effort) such as groovy.

I also say Gorramit quite a lot. People tend to think that i'm saying "goddamn it" I think. I'm pretty sure that's the reason why you can get away with it.
