Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand of god. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.
Wash, 'Our Mrs. Reynolds'

Noticed this random quote. According to my infallible braaaiiiin, I believe "My hand of god." should be "My hand to god.".

This site says so. Shrift disagrees. I believe it's Shrift that made the random quote generator, no? Here's the audio clip. Hard to make out, but it sounds like "to god" to me.

ETA: Just checked the English subtitles for that scene on the DVD, and they think it's "to god" also. Ok, the horse is dead now.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Shrift didn't do that particular random quote generator, only the Buffista RQG. Nilly provided the majority of the Firefly quotes for the one you're talking about. "My hand to god" makes more sense to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Corrected.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Quick! Get the funking crew on that immediately!

I've discovered a secret code at the bottom of B.org:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I'm not sure what it means, but do I win a prize?

It means, "Don't eat the chili."

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Nuh-uh. They are signatures. Or the blank bits left over after having something printed on signatures. I used to be able to do this math in my head. I also used to know the term signature without thwumping myself in the head. Old times...
