You literally jump up and down on the spot for a second or so when you see the graphic novel in the Forbidden Planet. (Though I couldn't find the novelisation.... what can I say, it was my lunch break and no one can ever find things quickly on lunch break.)

.... when you spend $65 Canadian on a Serenity poster from Germany.

.... when you have both the Firefly and Serenity soundtracks on your iPod with their own playlist.

.... when you have all the Serenity movie posters except the one from Australia waiting to be framed to hang on your walls.

.... when you pre-order the Serenity model from Dark Horse comics.

.... when you have 7 out of the 9 comic book covers just for the sake of having them.

.... when you put "Gorram it" in your movie script instead of "Son of a bitch" to the dismay of your friends.

....you try to convert your English Literature teacher by convincing her to check out the BDM because (as you tell them) there are Shakespearean allusions, there are many relevant themes, such as love, heroes/antiheroes, etc. that you are covering in the course, and there is an allusion to The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, which has just been examined that day.
All of this, while other converts are in the room grinning at you.



....your English Literature teacher wears a long brown leather coat to class one morning. And you sit though class resisting the urge to ask her about it. When class is over you go up and ask her where she got it, when she asks why you want to know, you say it reminds you of Firefly.
You sucsesfully convert her. (Though one of her friends did recomend her first, but she's borrowing the first disc of my set of the series.)

...between yourself and a friend you plan on converting the entire English department at you school.

...You get your English teacher to show Objects in Space in class and then disguss it for it's existensialism. (My very talented friend managed this.)

You sit at your desk during a slow period and list the episodes, on their correct disk and in order.

You work at a bank and refer to currency as "cashy money".

You see the name on a box of rubber bands made by Alliance and wonder how the Alliance got into making rubber bands.

You plot how to get a Firefly screensaver instead of the company logo past the IT guys at work.

You still have hope even though Nathan has a girl friend.

You KNOW that there will be a sequel.

...when you try to figure out a way to watch Firefly on your husbands laptop while doing an exercise DVD with the annoying exercise lady. (Must lift dumbells,must make self Mal worthy!)
...you have all 9 covers of the comics and they are framed in your bedroom next to a framed movie poster.
...you are going to buy the trade of said comics because you want to read them again but can't because they are framed.
...your husbands name is James, but when you think about him in an annoyed fashion is always comes out Jayne.
I have issues. I'm so glad you al understand.
And to whoever mantioned Reyonlds wrap, HEH, I never thought of that.

... You have all 9 covers of the comic and are getting the trade paperback so you'll have all 10 covers.

You have converted at least three others to Firefly

Everyone else you know has heard of the show thanks to you

You have actually said "Some people juggle geese!" to someone who had no idea what you were talking about

...and then spent twenty minutes explaining the reference and trying to convert them to the show

You've bought clothes for no other reason than they look like something your favourite character would wear (knitted tops, patterned dresses, brown jeans, brown coats, leather waistcoats, Hawaiian shirts ... YOU know who you are!)
