And lets not forget that everytime a Browncoat speaks broken Chinese a kitten dies. We all love kittens, don't we?

It's fun! And gosh darn it to heck, it's also American. Remember, if we don't make fun of people who are different, the terrorists win.

Browncoats throwing singles get together? Okay, good luck with that. Have fun swearing in Chinese or something. Here's what I don't understand. What's the point of ridiculing it? So that we can feel like we're better than them because we don't play Firefly-pretend at parties? If you don't like doing that, then don't do it. Leave the people who do enjoy that sort of thing out of it. Honestly, Colin, I really didn't expect something like this from you -- you've always struck me as someone who is very tolerant of others! :( I don’t understand what the problem is either.

Someone might look like Kaylee? Sure, if you mean Kaylee after she got run over by a John Deere riding lawnmower. Wow, you truly do live in a fantasy world. Someone might look like Kaylee?
