I'm 30 but my development was arrested at 14, and to answer the question well...
You can burn the land,
And boil the sea
But you can't take this coat from me
We've all found two very special things:
Firefly
and
Each Other
Keep fighting my beloved BrownCoats!
We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.
"And once you're gone, you can never come back
When you're out of the blue and into the black"

Amen to that.
I have loved other TV shows passionately, but I've never really identified with them. I never wanted to become a doctor in Nowheresville, Alaska, or hunt aliens in a search for my abducted sister, or become a member of the presidential staff, but I certainly want to climb on board with Mal and crew and take off for the black!
My browncoat fits so well, it's become part of me.

I like the way Savewash put it, my browncoat isn't something I wear, it is something I am. Mal's crew will never stop being a part of the crew. I will never stop being a Browncoat. Fight the good fight, we will hold.

"A show like this will be with you 'till the day you die . . . "

Even if some day the cause becomes completely moot, we'll always have the bond we all formed.

A small buniness? Oh, how cute!
Bunnies is nice.

I don't disagree on any particular point.

Yeah, ain't the 'coats just about the shiniest bunch of fans anywhere? (Not to mention so damn pretty :) I've lurked on some other types of fan communities (Star Wars, lots of videogame forums, etc) and the most immediate difference I noticed when I jumped onboard around here was how gorram friendly everyone was. Especially considering how much of this is taking place online (where people often forego the niceties of civilized culture) I think this really speaks to the type of people Our Little Show has brought together.
I'm with everyone else on this: I'll be a browncoat until the doctors pull the plug on my life support. (And Buddha help them if they try it when I'm trying to watch Serenity 12: Wash has a Thing :)
