It's not--although us Browncoats do tend to utter certain words when we're stressed...and for my Firefly Mock Opera I had to learn how to say "you are a babboon's ass crack, you pile of dog droppings. Go fuck yourself," in phonetic Mandarin....boy, that was a chore!
It was cobbled from actual profanity translated for Firefly episodes. Joss Wedon got away with it because it was in Chinese--but some of it is quite graphic and crude. The censors let him slip a lot by. If you go to the Firefly sites you can get detailed quotes and phonetic pronounciation etc....great fun!
I kinda evolved---from Trekker to Jedi to Proud Browncoat! I feel so at home in the 'verse. I go to cons dressed in mechanic's coverals and a hawaiian shirt and tell people I'm the bastard child of Kaylee and Wash. I plan to Firefly Larp as Sister Ephiphany, a gun-totin, kneecap-blastin' Shepherdess!
Fun! I like Star Wars pretty well, but Trek contains the most enjoyment for me. I'm sure I'd like Firefly if I ever saw it. I just haven't done so yet. Your LARP character sounds cool. :)
