Or.. .you get all spazzy and fall out of your chair just thinking about it.
Or... for Melee.. you name your shoes after Zoe and Wash
You take up saying "shiny" to people who have no idea what Firefly is
You want to juggle geese.
You already know that you want to go as a Firefly character for Halloween next year

Forget next year -- I saw a Captian Mal at school.
All the sounds on your computer have been replaced by Firefly quotes.
You skip lunch to go on the web and find stuff about Firefly.
You spend what you would have on lunch on Firefly merchandise.
You force family mambers to watch Firefly.
You say random things in Chinese.
Your friends understand your random, toneless Chinese.
Your Saturday AD&D/RPG group watches Firefly so they know what will happen to tehm the next day.
You mamge to get someone hooked on Firefly with that method!

Heh. Now there's a way to get people to watch the show. And get some priceless looks at the same time.
My couple of additions, just because I'm lame:
- The words "rutting" or "gorram" have become part of your vocabulary.
- You find yourself wondering, "What would Mal say?"

Your boss overhears you talking about Mal, Jayne, Walsh, and Zoe so much that he thinks those are the names of your children.
You've legally changed it so that those ARE the names of your children.
You've accidentially started caling your priest "Shepard" instead of "Father."
Your friend is devistated that her VCR did not record Firefly last week, so to cheer her up, you reenact it with sock puppets.
You're thinking up firefly sickness jokes instead of taking Economics notes.
You've started labeling everything in both English and Chinese.
You scan in all your Playboy pinups, modify them on your computer, and print them out again because--as you reciently discovered--women are sexier when they are covered in in engine grease.
You find yourself doodling "(Mal & Inara / Zoe & Wash / Buffy & Angel) Forever!" on the back of all your notebooks. Then you draw hearts around them.
You've built a small shrine to Whedon in your home where you burn incense and regularly make small sacrifices.
You also have a voodoo doll with personal objects of Fox CEOs attatched--just in case.
Your kids want a bedtime story, so you tell them an edited version of last weeks firefly. When they ask you if you made that story up yourself, you reply, "Of course!"
Fireflyfans.net is your homepage.
You're doomed. You've seen Jayne / Mal topless, and will never be satisfied with another man.

:) You guys are hysterical. :) I love it!

Haven't found a good spot yet for firefly quotes... and I can never remember to write them down while watching the show.... So... (Insert witty firefly quote here)

Melee took some of my new ones! But that's prolly because she was with me, singin' (see, no g!) the theme song. We were Halloween carolling... what else? hehe. All of mine are things I've actually done, usually in school.
You have a quote of the day... and you write it on large chalk boards in classrooms
When your calculus teacher shows you how to do math you respond "oh... shiny" and then smack yourself when you realize teachers don't understand such talk
You ask random people to translate the chinese for you, hoping that one will.
In drama, when asked to look lustfully at a character, a friend suggests that you "pretend he's Wash"
You decide that you, somehow can look like Gina Torres.. heh.. TRY anyway..
You get mad when people don't realize that you're dressed like Zoe.
People have started to realize that references to cleaning cannot include the word "Wash" or you'll have a psycho-hyper fit.
You can't concentrate on writing your college essays, because you realize that all that you can focus on is firefly..

He he...
That post closely resembles what I was like in high school with Buffy. Nice to know the tradition continues...

Somehow I don't think this will stop after high school! I was this bad with Andromeda sophomore year, too. Actually, this is a little worse. I love it.

Yeah. I kind of went through phases with other stuff before Whedon, but I got hooked on BTVS Freshmen year, and it really hasn't stopped.

I got a lot of odd looks from people walking past me in brown coats yesterday as I yelled "Go Independents!" and, "Do you know a Malcolm? You know, Mal? Inara, Kaylee, Jayne, Zoe, Wash, Simon, Book, River? A Serenity?!"

Merchandise? What?? Where?!
