... whenever you check the nutritional chart and see "Protein" you think of frosting.

... whenever you see a blue glowstick you think you're brain's going to melt out your ears.

... whenever you hear the characters on Earth: Final Conflict refer to someone as "Companion" you giggle.

... You don't find anything weird with a costume consisting of a Cowboy hat, a lazer pistol and tight pants)

Ain't. We. Just.

...if any of your video games that allows you to name characters have the entire firefly crew entered

(I'm addicted to Worms II, and team Serenity is "Decent"!, though Simon never survives a round)

bedtime now, but believe me, I'll be brainstorming all night long...bwahahaha!



I was so excited when i heard "Jayne" would be on Angel! This "Jayne" seems to be the exact oposite of Firefly's Jayne. i mean he's clean, speaks in full and cohearent sentences, he's basically a know-it-all. he hee hee. i like the Jayne with the goatee(sp?) better though!

Forever lurker, first time poster. Couldn't resist this one.

You might be a browncoat if...

...You wear a coat that's BROWN! Can we say duh? "It was on sale."

...you know all the words to the Firefly theme, but still can't sing the star spangled banner...

...you reffer to our president as go tsao duh, fong luh, gao yang jong duh goo yang.

That last one may just be me...

Well same here, first time posting but been lurkin' about.

I may be a Browncoat but I'm not sure...

I have a brown coat, duster in fact, no bullet hole patches on it...yet. ;)

I own a rifle with a name, it isn't a fancy Callahan full-bore autolock, it's a Winchester 94...the little brass plate on the stock does say Vera though.

My newest horse is named Jayne, and yeah he's got maleparts.

And if that doesn't cinch it in a couple weeks I'm getting a tattoo, yeah it's going to spell out Serenity in Chinese with the nifty scrollwork from the DVD menu around it to set it off some.

The funny thing is that I've indoctrinated enough of the other people on the ranch into the Church of Firefly that no one thinks any of this is strange at all. A few even know what I'm saying when I swear in Chinese.

Although they do snicker when I turned down the offer of a Hero of Canton t-shirt as a birthday present because I look too much like Adam Baldwin and don't want people always asking me if I'm originally from Ohio and what I did that was so heroic. Does that seem right to you?

I sorta think I'm a Browncoat though. :D




Well my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

your immediate reaction to news of the FF movie is, "Well Gorrammit, that's the shiniest news I've heard all week!"

You buy bath crystals named "Serenity."

You convert fellow coworkers to Firefly addicts.

You sit in front of TV every night watching Firefly DVD's and listening to Joss' commentaries.

You use Firefly lingo in everyday language.

Every conversation with friends and coworkers includes something about Firefly a year after it has been cancelled!

....you own a Jayne-type hat

(I found mine during winter closeout - It's not quite the same, but at least it's orange and has earflaps!)

....you call your green pair of coveralls "Kaylee pants"

....you printed up the blue sun logo in dark blue on transfer paper, and cut off the sleeves and collar of an old brown tshirt just so you could have a "Jayne shirt"

(I have to say, it's quite comfortable!)

....you've converted someone else to FF

(Mom, sister, brother-in-law!)

You might be a Browncoat if.....

you bought a coat that looks just like Mal's and wear it all the time.

You might be a Browncoat if.....

you had a friend w/ a machine shop build you a replica of Mal's gun because it is just so gorram shiny.

You might be a Browncoat if.....

you do all the Mandarin translations for the converts you have over for your Firefly viewing party.

You might be a Browncoat if.....

if you are already making plans for going to see the BDM as many times as you can while kidnapping friends and family to go w/ you.

You might be a Browncoat if.....

if you have an "Everything I needed to know in life I learned from Firefly" poster hanging in your office at work.

So are you like that, Lili, or is that your fiancee?
