Hey, Fudge Hyena! I'm glad to see that some of our vituperative browncoats didn't chase you away. Don't take it personally. They make everybody cry. They're monsters.
Viva Firefly!

Aw, that was a highly misunderstood misconception...all right, quite understood, but quite misconceited. Is that a word? Whoa, it's passed my bed time. It was an accident. There. But yes, what Johnny said. Glad you're still hanging around.

Better fits? Whacha mean? I don't watch B5, but I think my parents have every episode on tape. Elaborate?
I need some sleep.

Pirates and Westerns and Space Opera. Hmmmm.
One thing that kinda bugs me with any of the Space Western stuff is that science fiction (or space opera) is pretty versatile. I mean look at Dune, or Star Wars, there are a number of different historical settings those stories can be set in. Or rather, recreate the historical melue (?) of those earlier eras in a space faring setting. Or use multiple ones.
Is there piracy in the Firefly universe? We see the seeds of peasant rebellion on several planets, (Jaynestown, as one example) Are their the equivalent of samuri? It has been noted that in a recent census in Australia, a sizable fraction of that continent listed their religion as "Jedi". How would bikers and surfers adapt to the big black.
Its late, and I am insane.

I would venture to say you saw a pretty good examply of Space Pirating in Out of Gas.

I'd say yes, as evidenced by those lowlifes that were going to snatch Serenity in OoG. Somehow, though, I don't think they'd run around saying "YArrrr"
Haven't seen a lot of open water for surfing, though, have we? The core worlds seem a little too...I dunno, refined for that?

Fits = clothes
In Jaynestown, when Mal says: "There ain't a one of us looks the part more than the good Doctor. I mean, the pretty fits, soft hands, definitely a moneyed individual." -- I took "pretty fits" to mean fancy clothes.

Hello! I just thought I'd introduce myself. I've been lurking around these parts for nearly a year now and finally decided to get off my lazy ass and join you fellow Firefly folks. This is a really great site.
