There are so many, but I think my favorite is when my 5-year-old wanted me to play Go Fish with her, and I was trying to finish answering email on the computer. Finally, she said, "C'mon, Mommy, are we gonna play cards or are we gonna screw around?"

I have so many that I am trying not to post them all at the same time.
I am walking through the Barns&Noble book store when my backpack hits a stack of books and knocks them down.

Now at work I am ALWAYS saying Gorramn It when ever I mess up (and trust me it is a lot), but no one there knows what I am saying.

But anyway, I hit the books and they fall. I of course blurt out Gorramn it! This lady that has her four maybe six year old with her gasps and just stares at me. Turns out she spoke Chinese and was a fan of FireFly

At school, my friend (who has seen Serenity, but no Firefly episodes) was reading aloud my posters that I printed for my locker. She read the River "I can kill you with my brain," and without even meaning it, she said "well, I can kill you with my pinky."

I then spent the next few minutes explaining that the pinky quote was actually IN Firefly. Then we both thought it was the funniest thing ever.

Went to visit my mother today, she had a stroke a couple of years ago and is now in a nursing home.

One of the nurses was bringing around the tea trolley... she was wearing blue gloves...

Oh man, Firefly moments...where do I start?!

Obviously, had a fair dozen of 'em at Moonlight Rising. Before that, the one that sticks out was when I went to a Serenity screening at a library near Philly. Walked in, one of the other attendees said "Hey, Chris, how are you?" My jacket was still zipped up at that point, soooo.....

"Shiny." *zzzip* "Let's be bad guys."

Ah, wacky fun.

here in my little corner of the 'verse (namely Britain) we have a little comic book store that is fab. (could stay in there talking to the owner [another Browncoat] forever).

But we were having a conversation with other non-Browncoats and Firefly came up:

Owner: "Its a great show that gave us quotes like.."

He handed the converstaion over to be and i didn't realise, so all i could say was:

"SHINY!!"

We both fell about laughing will the others were like "WTF!?!"

Had one just today.

Mom and I went into the US while we still can (how long 'fore they close the border totally).

We stopped at McDonald's for lunch, and there was a little TV in the corner, tuned to a local news station (kinda a cool idea, I thought. If sports bars can do it, no reason Mickey D's can't). On occasion, adds would come up, and one of them was advertising CANTON COLLEGE.

I sat there grinning like an idjit as I ate.

Apparently they were offering new courses in: business administration, computers, and legal aid. I'll leave the funny mental images to the rest of you.

All great responses.

Mine happened last week; I was in a meeting with my manager and some of our engineers at HQ (aka, the Alliance). Anyhow, after a prolonged "discussion" with one of the design engineers, my manager finally stated something along the lines of, "You just don't understand manufacturing processes", to which I threw in (with a bland kind of voice), "He understands, he just doesn't comprehend." Everyone looked at me for about 5 seconds before continuing on, except the engineer that my manager was speaking about. I'm thinking that he could be a fan of Firefly, but I'd have to check for blue gloves before I'd be sure; could be an Aliance agent.

It has a name; I call it Vera
