I was looking for a good YouTube link to send somebody I'm trying to convert...

YouTube - Firefly Opening



...and, as usual, I started reading the typically positive comments, waiting for the inevitable bile-spewer.

This one was on page 6...



I was jumping up & down & clapping when I read it!
Never have I seen such a complete conversion! Total reversal!

That would've been a bit harsh.

Hey another one sees the light:)

Speaking of which, my conversion of students is going well ( 4 so far) and I've gotten a school counselor as well.

Go MSG!

So, does anybody else think the first of those two comments was maybe a stealth post by an already-converted Browncoat? Kinda like Inara sneering at the plan in Trash and walking out on the crew?

If so... ha! Good one. And if not... ha! Great conversion!

I'm pointin' right at it!

You mean, was handbanana999 just pretending to have hated it at first?

Well, that would suck the coolness right outta the whole thing!

interesting theory..but given it was on Fox, started with episode two and then got pre empted by Baseball etc. etc... me thinks the first impression and later conversion sound ALL too true...

And FMF.. I was just grabbing my very own Vera to join you when I noted the conversion.. all is well.. and we don't need to beat some sense into that new recruit after all!!

Don't think violence would've been required, regardless.
Maybe just some gentle mocking.

I definitely agree with this.
