no, you didn't!

is it still considered a quote if you just roll your eyes like Saffron? I love the way she rolls her eyes and I find myself rolling my eyes like her when my colleague says something inane. and he is prone to saying really inane things...

and last weekend, my brother showed my sister and I some dance moves he learned from some movie. My sister asked, "How did he do that??" and I (secretly proud) said, "By moving fast like a freak??"

"Shiny" is always a big one. I use it a lot and I've heard some of my friends accidentally use it, even though they don't know what it means.

I also find I say things like "conjure up a terribly compellng reason" as opposed to "think of a good reason" and so on.

I've used Simon's classic "Could you not do that while we're.....EVER?" complete with facial expression and suspended fork, at the dinner table a few times when my boyfriend was sick and felt the need to hauk (sp?) something out of his lungs. but afterwards I've always laughed cuz then I'd get a pic of Simon's face in my head followed immediately by Jayne's reaction, then andy's like "okay...what's that from?" and i then have to re-enact the scene all over again :P but it's worth it.

oh oh oh! the other night we were playing cards with a new couple and some other friends. Well, one of the girls we were playing with was named Miranda. Everytime someone said her name my husband would turn to me and in a creepy River-like voice say miranda . the couple had never heard of firefly or serenity, but the guy decided that he liked saying it that way, said it sounded like sex-voice.

way to go dear! Haha. LOL at Andy's (your boyfriend, right?) saying "Okay... what's that from?". I can imagine him saying it in a deadpan-bordering-on-scolding expression. God knows I get the same reaction everytime I inject a bit of Firefly-ness in my daily conversations. Hehe.

BitBPS: :) thanks. yeah, (yes, andy's my boyfriend, sry for not specifying :-P) he does say it kind of deadpan and rolls his eyes. People just don't appreciate the use of a decent firefly-ism in every day life :-P

Oh, and whenever I'm frustrated about a homework issue to the point where my brain just doesn't get it and is like "just walk away, it's not gonna work" I sigh and say "...doing it backwards. Walking up the down slide." To which andy, of course, turns around from his desk and goes "What??" Then I usually start laughing, cuz I know that not only does he not knwo where that's from, but it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever :-P love it.
