I am ANOTHER "semi-muscular-man" wannabe!

Mostly my lines come out in times of good humor:

Watching some moron trying to out-speed the cops...
"where's that get fun?"

Passing comment to a roommate studying anatomy, stair landing, two in the morning: "The human body can be drained of blood in *.* seconds given adequate vacuuming systems."

All the time, nonplusses people: "Does that seem right to you?"

But, running for the bus, on an empty stomach and late for my unfinished final project, having not slept for almost 48 hours, there was a strange refrain that wouldn't leave my mind:

"Dear Buddha...please bring me a pony and a plastic rocket...and a plastic rocket bring me a pony and a plastic rocket...dear Buddha..."

I guess it was my brain's attempt at irony. (Given the tenants of Buddhism and my likelyhood of catching that bus).
Normally I don't engage it in conversation.

Last year I had a new windshield put in my car, and I was driving on I-91 with my Son in the back seat, when a rock came flying out of nowhere & ricochetted off my new glass, leaving a thumbnail-sized crack- to which I automatically exclaimed: "What was that?"

Now did your son say "It appeared to be the primary buffer panel?"

After which you announced the doom of all living occupants?

I got to use a Jayne quote I never thought I would be able to. Was sitting at an airport in Thailand waiting for my flight with this kid sitting opposite me just staring at me.. this kid didnt even blink, just kept staring. In the end I got jack of it and said "Shake your head boy, your eyes are stuck!" and it worked!

Loved it!

My apologies, for one.

Here's one I have been dying to use (but probably never shall)spoken as it was; slowly and with impeccable pronunciation:

"Every-man-there, go back inside--or I will blow, a new crater in this ti-ny moon."

If that's not Wash pwnage, Serenity should get some guns.

I actually DO say that. More often than I should, in fact. It's usually when I'm trying to brute-force something, or as a substitution for the "I need the bigger hammer" kind of comment while working on a car...

Not a problem, no need to apologize, but it was very nice. I was enjoying the ones we can't use because there have been several threads about quotes we have used and this was new.

For quite some time, I thought I would not have occasion to use "We applied the cortical electrodes but failed to get a response from either patient." Alas, lately one of my supervisors (about the only good one) has been getting through my loaner DVD set, and now when we find some unplanned occurance, or a lack of coordination amongst the worker bees, or other unforseen happenings, I can use that, where he then sniggers and agrees.

While playing two-player video games, I always try to take the pilot/driver seat in hopes that whoever I'm playing with and I will re-enact the simple

'No.'
'Yes.'
'No!'
'Yes!'

Between Mal and Wash while trying to land on Mr. Universe's moon during the ol' epic space battle.

Alas, no such luck.

You were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire. It happens.


A quote I love but can't use:

"Now we have a boatful of citizens right on top of our... stolen cargo." Zoe's just fabulous.

Of course, the end of that exchange -

ZOE: Oh yeah, this is gonna go great.

MAL If anyone gets nosy, just, you know... shoot 'em.

ZOE: Shoot 'em?

MAL: Politely.


is very usable, but it hasn't come up for me yet.
