I absolutely love that the use of Chinese is never explained on the show. Writers that trust their audience to have half a brain make me smile. Overly didactic exposition turns my stomach.

"Say, Mal, I couldn't help but notice that you like to curse in Chinese. Is that because Chinese was one of the dominant cultures before humans were forced to abandon Earth That Was?"

I also like that it's never translated.
 
Well, I play on a couple of Firefly forums and well...have the RP book as well...and it's explained there that the two dom cultures going into space were Chinese and English speaking...which is also why the two dom relgions are Christian and Buddist.

I'm working on a little fanfic thing called "The Secret History of the Companion Guild"

Color me dork, it's ok :D

I've been looking to pick up the RPG. I've not heard particularly good things about the system, though, which makes me hesitate. The same company also did the Battlestar Galactica (which has exactly one cuss word - Frak). I am not amused.

Get out of my head.
 
My fetish for young boys started when I turned 35 and I immediately hit my mid-life crisis. I know what you're thinking, mid life crisis's don't usually hit by 35, but I am HIV positive you see so I age quicker than most. I contracted HIV during my days working as a rent boy in prison, I would willingly let the big black dudes plough my back entrance till I bled, but that's another story. Back to my main passion, my love of young boys. You see, young boys never complain about me when I ejaculate prematurely so I get no hassle. That's why I hate women, they'd always be nagging me for shooting my load as soon as I entered them and it made me feel like such a failure as a man. I couldn't look at myself in the mirror after that, so I turned to small boys. They never nag at me for losing control on entry, but they do seem to ask me if it's in yet. But yeah, I love young boys so much! :)

TMI guy! :cool:

Other than having memorized the dialog in every episode my Firefly fandom has been slipping.
RP book?
 
"If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater."

So many great quotes....
 
Another day, another post!

To answer some thoughts above...

Tortoise- Sign me up as a fangirl in your club
Jim- Warm hugs, I'll send you a PM with a link to a really good ORP that's easy for newcomers to get into. It may look overwhelming, but really, it's easy.
Atmas- Here's the Amazon link to the RP book.

Amazon has 17 pages of stuff on Firefly/Serenity!

It's also a great way to get around network and movie censors and lends a very nice flavor to the show/movie without offending those who are prudish about cuss words.
