Two unrelated bits from Firefly, non-spoilery:
Madrigal:
I got the impression that one was supposed to think that space ships were being designed similarly to boats so that the crews, long used to boats, would be more comfortable on them. It was also why design varied so much between races - Borgs liked minimalist cubes, Klingons liked dark dank holes and the Federation was into replicating the look of a dermatologist's waiting room.
EpicTangent:
I see your points (most of them), but they don't glare with me. But then I am the Queen of Suspending Disbelief (Let all lesser Disbelief- Suspenders bow down before me!).

excerpts from little bam bam's maiden voyage in Firefly, after news broke that UPN has passed on the show...
and i'll watch anything that tim minear wants to write, 'cause he can write an ep that's like a tight nasty slider leaving you standing at the plate with the bat in your hands going "what the fuck was that?"
and from later on, in the same post...
oh, and, gina torres? i watched cleopatra 2525. that shameful admission should point the way to where my loyalties are.
it feels like U-Day.
i'll probably find a bar. which is not totally different than what i would've been doing otherwise.

If I only had a brain...
Madrigal: But when they switched the setting of Barney to the school playground and offed the adults, they removed anything that wasn't so mind-numbing it'd turn a toddler on to crack.
Dana: I'd kinda like to see that episode. "Barney's Bloodbath."

Deena, loving the Bitches (and will you believe me if I disclaim that I'm not just COMMing this because... oh, never mind. It's funny.):
Okay, now I want to be Jilli, with a side of fay, a dash of trudy, a soupcon of am, a pinch of lizard...
oh heck, let's just whip up a bitch batch and slather it on me!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Am-Chau, in bitches:
Imported Bitches: '100% Bitch, Made in England. Tiara extra.'
And the manual that comes with them, badly translated: "You are proud owner of Bitch, model 567493. Please treat with care, do not insult gender to face. Two hours with Spike needed every day- do not disturb during this time. We are not responsible if you are rude and they kill you. Thank you for your purchase."

Once again, she manages to out-cute us all:

Rio: Am I really pissing everybody off with the caps-lock action? It's just ... I think in caps-lock, you know? But I'll stop if you want, OK?
billytea: Lordy, no. I can't speak for anyone else, but I just change my settings to a smaller font. Then occasionally I pretend I've shrunk the Buffistas to a conveniently portable size, and I can hear their high-pitched squeaks coming from the large jar on the side of my desk.
Then Bec tells me to behave myself, and take out the garbage. (Sigh) An active imagination is so important, y'know?
