    (which is now on my favorites list)

    it means "filty fornicators of livestock"
    Oh my....

    Thanks for the link. It cracks me up thinking of how they got away with saying all of that on US broadcast TV.

      classic from the movie:

      Mal: What was that?

      And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"

      Jack: You're so shallow.
      Daniel: Oh please. Teal'c is like one of the deepest people I know. He's so deep. Tell him how deep you are. You'll be lucky if you understand this.
      Teal'c: My depth is immaterial to this conversation.
      Daniel: Oh! You see?
      Jack: (to Daniel) No more beer for you.

      River: My food is problematic.

        Very classic, and very Mal.
        Another good Mal line;
        "If anything happens to her, Doc, anything at all, I swear to you I will get very choked up. Honestly, there could be tears."

          ROFL! That is great a Mal quote.

          I also love your rhyming location.

            Continuing with the Mal theme:

            Mal: Did you see us fight?
            Kaylee: No.
            Mal: Trap!
            And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"

            Jack: You're so shallow.
            Daniel: Oh please. Teal'c is like one of the deepest people I know. He's so deep. Tell him how deep you are. You'll be lucky if you understand this.
            Teal'c: My depth is immaterial to this conversation.
            Daniel: Oh! You see?
            Jack: (to Daniel) No more beer for you.

            River: My food is problematic.

              I thought this one was sorta funny, in a sadistic Niska way(the man in question has been killed and hung upside down like a side of beef):

              Niska: You have a problem I kill this man?
              Mal: No, I'm sure he was a bad person.
              Niska: My wife's nephew. I'm getting an earful at dinner, but there is no way out of that.

                You've gotta love the lines from the Serenity trailers.

                MAL: Listen up! We're coming down to empty that vault!
                GUARD: You have to give me your authorisation password.
                *Jayne fires his gun*
                GUARD: ...okay.

                WASH: This landing could get pretty interesting.
                MAL: Define 'interesting'.
                WASH: 'Oh God oh God, we're all gonna die'?

                MAL: D'you wanna run this ship?
                JAYNE: Yes.
                MAL: Well...you can't.

                MAL: This is the Captain. We're having some troubles with our engine sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then explode.

                JAYNE: Shiny. Let's be bad guys.

                    Niska: I think this is only enough for one. Ahhh! Now you_
                    Zoe: (points to Wash) Him. I'm sorry, you were going to make me choose. Would you like to finish?
                    And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"

                    Jack: You're so shallow.
                    Daniel: Oh please. Teal'c is like one of the deepest people I know. He's so deep. Tell him how deep you are. You'll be lucky if you understand this.

                      There's a great line from Inara in the Companion Training House. The Operative has just said something like "You can't annoy me, Captain Reynolds," and Inara interjects: "Oh please! Give him an hour."

                        I loved the "oops" look on her face after that outburst! But the hands down best line (for me) from that scene is:

                        Mal: Dear buddha, I want a pony and a plastic rocket...
                        And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"

                        Jack: You're so shallow.
                        Daniel: Oh please. Teal'c is like one of the deepest people I know. He's so deep. Tell him how deep you are. You'll be lucky if you understand this.
                        Teal'c: My depth is immaterial to this conversation.
                        Daniel: Oh! You see?
                        Jack: (to Daniel) No more beer for you.

                          Spoiler:
                          MAL: I know the secret. [...] And the rest of the 'Verse is gonna know it too. 'Cause they need to.
                          OPERATIVE: Do you really believe that?
                          MAL: I do.
                          OPERATIVE: Are you willing to die for that belief?
                          MAL: I am.
                          *Mal draws and shoots the Operative a few times*
                          MAL: O' course, that ain't exactly plan A.

                          I love that little exchange. Something that could've become soppy and stupid, but not only does it work, it then has that little funny line at the end.

                              "have you ever been with a warrior woman?" - Wash bushwacked

                              its not really the line itself, though in its one right it is humorous, what makes me laugh is the little look wash gives the man after he says it. tehehe cracks me up every time!!

                                Indeed. I loved the whole exchange with Jayne and the grenades.

                                Zoe: We're robbing them, not occupying 'em Jayne.

                                (during the chase) Jayne: Boy wouldn't it be nice if we had some GRENADES right about now?!

                                and later....Mal: Tell me you brought 'em this time.
                                And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"

                                Jack: You're so shallow.
                                Daniel: Oh please. Teal'c is like one of the deepest people I know. He's so deep. Tell him how deep you are. You'll be lucky if you understand this.

                                Daniel: Oh! You see?
                                Jack: (to Daniel) No more beer for you.

                                River: My food is problematic.
