The 'Verse is full of snazzy quotes that can be used in your everyday life to make you sound a little more quippier than you really are.
But what are the quotes that have absolutely NO relevance to real life that you wish you could use but can't?
I've always loved the quote;
"Seventy earths spinnin' about the galaxy, and the meek have inherited not a one."

"Wheel never stops turning"
"That only matters to the people on the rim"
Never had a chance for that to come up ever, sadly.

...Well, I was in a fire.
Actually, I was fired...
from a fry cook opportunity.
...I can handle myself."

Used the phrase "evil lecherous hump" during a conversation once. Used it in proper context but with non-Browncoats. Took too long to explain to puzzled & offended people -- won't do that again.

"My muscular buttocks!"
I've used "where's that get fun" a couple of times.

Using "hump" in any of the Firefly ways will probably get you a few stares. I'd love to be able to go "I'm humped" or "We're humped" but it probably wouldn't be wise.
Ummmm, how about "Look! They have boy whores!"

I once used 'humped' at a convention, in a Firefly game, and in context. Strangely enough it was received with a kind of stern silence that I had not expected.
Very odd.

I'll have to think about it, but I love the idea of this thread so far, so keep the ideas coming! :)

I might be able to use "I'll be in my bunk" but maybe nobody would get it.
I do think "well, that has an effect on the landscape" could be used, but have not yet found the proper opportunity.
