You think Hero of Canton is an acceptable karaoke song
You sing the Ballad of Serenity as a lullaby to your baby.
You wanna be king of Londinium (because that would be an interesting title)
Pink dresses with frills excite you.
Slinky dresses excite you more.
You'd rather go barefoot.

I teach computer software apps in middle school and have started a video club for the kids to learn animation. I wasn't really into animation but was doing it because the kids are really into it. The program they are using has a western motif in it and one of the preanimated people looks like Captain Mal Reynolds. So now I'm hooked and will be trying to create a mini firefly scene.

I am learning a new skill just to bring my favorite character to life for a couple of seconds.

Please! Nobody died last time!

..when your parents used the sentence "hey, did you e-mail some guy named joss whedon"? to get you out of bed in the morning
(which was just mean, cause 1, no, no i didn't and 2, they know perfectly well who joss is. would NEVER have worked if i was properly awake)
