DonCoat,
After reading the exchange that followed your posting, I've concluded that anything I could post in answer to you at the end of that would be utterly useless.
bun, picturing Agatsu in bunk...

Don't worry, Slip. It's perfectly normal if'n you know the right people *coughdevotedfanscough*
I put Firefly reference into a poem I had to write for English class just last week. I don't think my teacher will know, though.
I use quotes all the time, too. And the sad thing is...they actually pertain to the situation...and I don't even realise it at the time.
So I say, go ahead- be passionate about it (some would say obsessive but whatever). Life is too short to worry about people who are too self-conscious to let themselves be slightly apart from the crowd of "normality"...well, maybe more than slightly apart. 
Sorry if that seemed a little preachy- I'm just tired of people telling me how pitiful I am for being obsessed with Firefly/Lord of the Rings/Harry Potter...etc....
The Hero of Canton, the man they call JAAAAAAAAAYNE!!!!!

Its just an object,
I doesn't mean what you think,
Things are just things,
Till someone comes,
Then imagination sticks its nose in,
Turns harmless into harmful,
Innocent into worldly.
What is it, a stick shaped like a gun,
Or a gun laying on the ground,
Who can say but River,
She understands,
She simply doesn't comprehend,
How can anyone embrace within limits,
Take the world at one glance?
Much better to flow away,
Taking the sticks and stones along,
Making them new and smooth,
bringing them to calmer waters,
Were they will bother us no more.
Its just an object,
it doesn't mean what you think.
If you play Nationstates.net check out the region Firefly.

People who have imaginations tend to upset people who don't...but we have more fun :) I'm not concerned about what other people think of my new found devotion to Firefly. If it's not their thing, well fine, if it is - shindig time!
Film and TV are just another way of telling a story, another form of artistic and creative expression. "Some people juggle geese". I love books, art and theatre too, but among all the things I am passionate about, Firefly is unique. It's special and it deserves to be celebrated.
Also, I want a bumper sticker that says "Suspenders Are Sexy". Teehee :)

I don't disagree on any particular point.

I've apparently started using "I'm not a total backbirth" so often that it seems normal to coworkers & family (most of whom seem to expect me to be an idiot ).

My peeps and I were such fans of LOTR that we all have names.
I was Taragorn.
Embrace the embraceable! Thats what I always say. Or I would if I have a saying, and someone asked me to say it!
One summer.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.
And a bunch of Rings that make Shiny people do silly things!
Starting June 23rd, we aim to misbehave!
Nathan doesn't know it yet, but I am his one true love! Is that weird?
(he will believe, he will believe)

I've gotten a non-firefly watcher to start using "shiny" because it's an awesome word. My friends and I are going to dress up as the crew for halloween :)

Yes, indeed. Yes. Always enjoy the funny.
No high bridges around here, anyway, unless you take a train. ....always wonder what kind of engine *they* are running....

I like you LOTR name, FutureMrsFillion. Wayyy back in middle school, people called me Merry and my best friend Pippin. We've sort of lost touch since we went to different schools after, but anytime we get together, we still call each other that!
And the funny is specifically there to be enjoyed!
