...when you look in your closet and there is literally a long brown duster with serentiy and independent patches on it hanging there...

I know that's probably off the deep end a bit but I've actually had that coat for many years and never wore it and then I saw SereniFly and realized what a treasure I had hanging there so I bought the patches from one of the retailers listed on this site and slapped them on the coat and now it's really, really shiny and I can't wait to wear it to a convention or something and this is getting really bad and I'm rambling on and on and I'll stop now...sorry...my fanboy jones got the better of me for a second there. Please don't judge to harshly...

You know you're a Browncoat when . . .

You try to convert your Chinese friends so they can translate for you.

You snicker every time you hear a military official mention the chain of command.

Every time you see an attractive woman walk by, you turn to your friend and say "I'll be in my bunk."

Your friend understands the reference.

You hesitate before biting into an apple.

You think twice about people you meet wearing hats.

Blue latex gloves TOTALLY freak you out.

Someone says they're unarmed, and your first instinct is to shoot 'em.

You look at strawberries in a whole new light.

You never kiss a woman on the lips.

You attempt to throw random Chinese words into everyday conversation.

Every time someone mentions wishes and horses, you get a hankering for steak.

You've seriously contemplated what packaged food and rosemary might taste like.

You've recently taken up Chinese Checkers.

You refer to EVERY SINGLE party you go to now as a "mighty fine shindig."

People talking in movie theaters don't bother you much anymore 'cause you know where they'll end up.

You've tried eating non-Chinese food with chopsticks.

You've taken a sudden interest in rice wine.

You tell every one you know what a postholer’s for.

Your friends are tired of hearing that you can kill them with your brain.

You can say “crack of a baboon’s ass” in Chinese.

You’ve been to Plano, TX just to see if they’ve got any songs about Wash.

You’ve tried to convince your Sunday School teacher to integrate non-progressional evolution theory with God’s creation of Eden.

You know how fast the human body can be drained.

You’ve tried to make your own Mudder’s Milk.

You look for “The Hero of Canton” on Karaoke Night.

You've talked to your doctor about removing a certain nerve cluster in your back, just in case.

You sent last year’s Christmas List to Buddha instead of Santa Claus.

You get a little sad every time you see a leaf floating in the wind.

The other two, though, fit me to a tee.

My turn, though

...you say "go-se" instead of crap and your boyfirend tells everyone else not to ask.

...you dream about it at night

...Hero of Canton echoes through your house when you've had a good day.

...your family knows every line of the BDM because you quote it to them, not because they've acutally seen it that many times themselves.

...the rally call to the Battle of Serenity thread inspires you to write letters to everyone you can think of.

...you never, EVER stop believing in and hoping for the return of the Serenity and her crew.

All of this, while other converts are in the room grinning at you.

You plan to make your own T-Shirts with Firefly and Serenity Quotes.
"Some people juggle geese"
"Two by two, hands of blue"
"I followed the voices"
"I can kill you with my brain"
"This must be what going mad feels like"

You take your DVDs and Soundtrack wherever you go.

You give yourself the name "River_Tam" in an online poker room.

You spent your days searching for Pictures, Fanvids, Songs etc who are related to Firefly/Serenity

You spent the money for the next 3 months to by your copy of the Firefly DVDs (50€) and the Firefly Soundtrack. (Serenity and its Soundtrack haven't been released yet)

...That same day, you asked every teacher (151 total) if they were there when Alan was there and if they had any amusing anecdotes involving the ducks from the school pond possible being juggled...

...After asking all the teachers about Alan and finding out that he was on the speech team, you went immediately to the counselor and asked for a schedule change.

True story. That's why I have been on the speech team for the last three years. It's really weird to live in the same town as he used to and his parents still do because every so often someone will track me down to tell me a story about how they saw him over the weekend and I have never been one of the lucky ones.

...Your parents refusing to watch Firefly, at all, hurts.

...you cut your apples before eating them.

...you sing the theme song quite a bit, and often have a medly of various Firefly-related songs stuck in your head.

...You can trace practically anything in such a way so as it reveals SOMETHING to remind you of Firefly.

...You've told the annoying guy in your Algebra class "your mouth is talkin', might wanna see to that."

...you now buy bars with "fruity and oaty" in them so you can sing the song and tell people that eating fruity oaty bars is NOT MANDATORY, even when they have no idea what your talking about.

...you friends now accept the phrases they don't understand, to be from Firefly or Serenity.

...your friend which you pretty much made watch Serenity confessed that they had more fun watching you watch the movie (sad in so many ways).

...you start each day by saying "I aim to misbehave."

...you point and whisper your friend's sister's name which is indeed 'Miranda.' (she of course is understandably a mite worried.)

...everything that you say, or do, or hear, or see relates in one way or another back to Firefly or Serenity.

...when you have to do something you don't want to (i.e. sit through annoyingly long and boring school assemblies) you look at your friend, make like your going to shoot yourself in the brainpan, and she understands.

...you then proceed to play Firefly pictionary on a scrap paper during the assembly. (i'll post pics if interested.)

...you get mighty offended when/if people say bad things about either Firefly or Serenity.

...you stop hanging out with those people.

...you spend forever looking for an affordable brown coat, even though you live in Arizona. (And although it's winter, it's still 80 degrees with no rain for like 150 days)

...you feel depressed when you still can't find one.

...you begged your friend with a car to drive you to Hot Topic so you could get a Serenity shirt, later granting him immunity for his most appreciated feat.

...you spend more than an hour in a fabric store searching for the perfect materials to sew on to your Serenity Bag. (got an idea from someone else who made one on here.)

Most of your responses to things are from the 'verse. It's pretty common in our household to hear "Your mouth is talking...might want to look into that.."

"Shiney!" has replaced "cool"

You're watching your old "Andromeda" dvds, and start talking about the Roddenberrys, and your husband says "Yeah, they're ok, but they're certainly no Joss Wheedon"

When traveling, Jayne's song and the Ballad of Serenity replace 100 bottles of beer on the wall...

Your teenages sons are upset that there are no registered companions in their 'verse...yet....

You refuse to watch anything on FOX because of their sudden yet inevitable betrayal..

Your copies of Serenity and Firefly belong on top of the tv, instead of on the shelves with the rest of your movies.

You walk into a bar and start talking about Firefly and Serenity. People look at you blankly. Confused and alarmed that people in this world could possibly be unaware of classic TV/Film sci-fi, you grab people by the lapels and scream in their faces such pertinent questions as,

"WHAT YEAR IS THIS?!?"

"WHERE AM I?!?"

"WHO IS THE PRESIDENT?!?"

And then you run outside screaming, perhaps to find the Statue of Liberty that you can fall to your knees in front of, mourning the happy fantasy-land of 'everybody loves Firefly' that for a short giddy time you believed you lived in.

While pounding your fists and shouting, "Damn you, Fox! You maniacs! You finally did it! You cancelled her! You cancelled her all to hell! Damn you! You murderers!"

And so on.

After going to said convention, you're inspired to write a song (entitled, "Firefly", of course), which band members say is your best one yet.

Oh, and I totally relate to whoever said they keep their Firefly/Serenity discs on top of the TV instead of tucked away with the other movies... There's just something comforting about having them in plain sight...

You buy juggling geese from washosaurus.com and proudly juggle them for anyone who comes over...
