To ginger from SE Minnesota... We're practically neighors! I'm in New Albin, Iowa.
OK, Obsession Confession Time: I'm still new at this, but I did switch all my sound themes to Firefly sounds. Whenever I start a device, I hear, "'River? Please, why don't you come out?' 'No! Can't. Too. Much. Hair.'"and when I stop it, I hear, "'River, honey, he's putting the hair away now.' 'It doesn't matter. It'll still be there. Waiting.'" Email incoming is "And despite our best efforts, they - they kicked." Windows startup is the Firely theme and shutdown is Jayne hollering, "The Hero of Canton, the one they call meeeee!"
My baby girl loves to sing the Fruity Oaty Bars song (Fwooty Oaty Bawwws, according to her).

You know your obsessed when:
* You spend your last minutes before you go to sleep thinking of your next post on FFF.
* You can't stop watching the episodes, even though you have them comitted to memory.
* You try to rework your entire financial budget to fit in attending BD Flanvention II.
And you know your obsessed with Joss when:
* You just wish he'd make another gorram tv show!

I was worried a coworker would unexpectedly walk into the datacenter late in the evening while I was upgrading servers and singing "FRUITY, OATY BAR!" at the top of my lungs last week... (It's noisy in there with all the computers, airconditioning and fans and stuff so you gotta sing loud.)

I've got the Fruity Oaty Bar theme as my ringtone.
Also, last week my boyfriend and I were walking back to campus from dinner, and some people asked us if we could answer a question for them and have them videotape it. Sure, why not? The question was, and I am not making this up, "What are you obsessed about?" I answered Firefly/Serenity, and I was very proud of my 2 minute coherent spiel on the basics and how it's about 9 people just trying to live (somewhere in there I was asked about them being rebels, and I answered that I think deep down, we're all rebels at heart). I found out afterwards that this was a project for their church (not sure how they'll use my entry), but at least one of the guys asking the questions knew what I was talking about (it helped that I had my Serenity pin on my purse) 
No power in the 'verse can stop me!

Let's see, I am logged on here and I am supposed to be working right now. Hmmm...a touch of obsession. Not too bad.
I feel the need to check in to the site as much as possible to see what other Browncoats have on their minds...again during working hours. Maybe a bit more obsessed.
Have gotten a tattoo of the Serenity chinese charachters on the shoulder. Does that mean obsessed? Probably. Though at least the tat is not of Mal or the ship itself. THAT might be taking it too far lol.

...when you buy a brand new laptop computer, and the very first thing you do when you turn it on for the very first time is insert the Serenity DVD and watch it.

I don't disagree on any particular point.

I love it; my accent and vernacular go mainstream. Well kind of -- for years I've had to hide my accent; now I don't!

I love this thread. :) *giggle*
Okay, you know you're obsessed ...
- When "Mal" means "good";
- When you start ducking when you hear the Fruity Oaty Bars song;
- When you no longer associate "River" with water;
- When Chinese no longer sounds like Greek.
This was fun. :)

I am officially obsessed, I say gorrammit, gos se, shiny, not so much, damn site better than...all of the above. Plus I hum and sing the theme song at work, while cooking, in my sleep...Other TV bores me now too. At work today my boss told me something to do and I replied with, "It all looks very doable." Sigh...Obsession is shiny...
