Could someone please translate that into "regular person dummy talk"?

Honestly, I don't get a lot of what he wrote. Probably because I'm really only a fan of our 'verse and not his other projects. (At least not yet)

Why exactly couldn't he go to a screening?

thanks....

Ivy:
Our Joss enjoys the obscure jokes, for instance The One True B!x is a guy (girl?) who uploaded a lot of photos in one of the Whedonesque threads:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/cantstoptheserenity/pool/
and evidently the B!x name caught Joss' attention while he was lovin' the photos....

I think he couldn't attend the screening because:
1. finishing 'Wonder Woman' script
2. he has an actual family who planned a party
3. engaged in the business of drinking twice as much as usual and trying to dispose of Drew Goddard's remains
(who was one of the writers on Buffy & Angel)

was there anything else?
don't ask me to explain the claw, because I'm clueless about claws....

Actually, TheOneTrueB!x was the conciever, organizer and driving force of the SerenityNow/EqualityNow movement. Joss was recognizing his excellence!

As for the rest, Joss probably tried to get tickets to the LA showing but it was sold out.
(That's a joke! I'm sure if he'd wanted a ticket, they could have put him in a folding chair in the back of the last aisle.)

Thanks for the clarification.

It was really the "destroying his enemies" thing that I didn't get. (And I didn't know who Drew Goddard was....is Joss now mad at him?)

Usually I can handle (and sorta follow) his obscure and wry humor....but this was totally over my head.

I didn't know if anything he said was at all relavant to the future (or lack thereof) of the Firefly 'verse.

I'm pretty sure it's a Toy Story reference. Y'know, the big UFO-game claw that the LGMs worshipped?

mad at Drew Goddard? Perish the thought...
one could more easily imagine being mad at puppies.
Isn't he the Drew that wrote 'Dirty Girls'? One of the truly great episodes from Buffy's S7 which introduced Nathan Fillion's character AND showed us Faith fighting a Vulcan (one of the great moments in the History of TV!)?

Anyway, see? I didn't understand my own self:
thank you sameentia for explaining theOneTrueB!x (I will stop worshipping the false B!x and direct my thanks to TheOneTrueB!x who brought us the Great IDEA!)
and thank you Cybersnark for the Claws idea....
ewwww

This is GREAT!!

Everyone did so good and the signal is only going to get bigger and better. I thank Joss for his cool comments and all he has to do is take a glance behind to see the huge group of browncoats in his wake. We're with ya all the way.

I love reading posts of Jossy-goodness. Shiny! Joss-posts always give me something to giggle about. I do have a question though about the Morena "huh" reference, I seem to recall reading something about her not appropriately responding sometime when a thanks was in order but I can't remember any specifics. Can anyone jog my memory?
Also you know that the Morena reference immediately following the talk of the not unfinished WW script might produce a wee bit of dun-dun-dun CASTING SPECULATION (cue eery music). Ok I'll stop now.
