One that I do use a whole bunch (and I have my 3 year old son saying it all the time now too ) is from Serenity:
"Faster. Faster! Faster would be better!"

I also use a mish-mash of a Kaylee quote with a Jayne one often, usually when it comes to food:
"Ooh, look at all the tasty!"

I also say "... morbid and creepifyin'..." on a pretty frequent basis.

Man, I love Joss' writin'!

"This is why we lost, you know. Superior numbers." "Thanks for the re-enactment, sir."

"Storm's getting worse."

I mostly use Mandarin cussing since I live in a french-speaking community, though I can't resist the urge to translate some particularily snappy lines when the situation calls for it

"Your mouth is talking, you might wanna look to that." That one never fails to stick a grin on my nasty mug.

I use shiny quite a bit, though, awkward as it may be. And I'm working on cursing in chinese off the bat. Ta ma de, Tzao Gao, Go se, Fey ooh, Ai ya, Tyen sah, etc. No to keen on insulting people in Mandarin, but venting aggravation is nice, 'feels good


"We'll pass through it soon enough."

Let's see...

1. My dog Nikki has always been called 'Sissy', now she goes by mei-mei or xiao mei-mei.

2. I say Shiny, all the time.

3. Gorramit is starting to catch on.

4. And from the flashback in 'Safe', I say Fallacious quite a bit.

MSG: That kitty pic is SO cute! You definately need to add it to the Kittys rule over all this land and aim to misbehave... thread. I can't remember if that's the exact title, since its so long, but its pretty close.

And I use
shiny
gorram
your mouth is talking, you might wanna look in on that
go se
dong ma?

And I've been trying to work "The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds, given adequate vaccuuming systems." into the conversation lately, given how I luv that line, but I havn't succeded. I'll keep trying, though, cuz that line's just too damn pretty to waste.

My friends had no idea that when I tell my husband he's going to the special hell...it came from Firefly. I don't even say the whole line most days, just look at him and say 'special hell'. I also enjoy a bit of cursing in mandarin since I don't like real curse words.

"shiny" (doesnt everyone?)
"go se!"
"my food is problematic"(and often substitute "food" with any noun that applies)
"creepifyin"
"wacky fun"

i have a friend who's nickname is Meimei - because she the younger sister in a Chinese family :0)

oh yeah...i get to use "SLY" an awful lot. it just sounds so much beter than other words that often just sound derogatory.

gotta get more chinese phrases going...

Well a few weeks ago I started work in an office processing donation records for the National Blood Service (UK), so "The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds, given adequate vacuuming systems" could possibly get a look in at some point...
