Decided to sit down and finally watch the episode with 1812, because seeing Serenity put me in a sci-fi kind of mood, and god, I remember now why I love this show so much XD;
Rygel: "When a woman, whether it's your wife, your lover, or a slave you purchased to be your wife or lover[...]"
Also, on Serenity (no spoilers, don't worry) - nice little sci-fi flick, although I think if I had been a fan of the tv show I'd have been a bit disappointed - it kind of smacked of the Farscape mini-series.
On an entirely unrelated note, the BPAL fall swap has begun, and I totally <3 the person I got. Huge geek! Yaaaay! (If the person who has me is reading this, uh, I forgot to mention on the questionaire what a great huge geek I am...science, video games, anime, manga, RP...I am totally there XD)

And since I've never seen Farscape, I'll have to say I have no idea of the concept of it being ripped off. If it was similar, I have no doubt that it just happened that way, since Joss is more than creative enough to not have to borrow ideas...

I'm starting to understand why you misunderstood so many of my posts. Reading comprehension is a valuable skill, and knee-jerk reactionism is not.
Ah, verbatim.

That was me stating that I was trying to verify one of two ways that could have been taken, not me having a knee-jerk reaction.
And, once again, I'll assume that you're lamenting the woes of the English language, and NOT insulting my reading comprehension, which is doing just fine, thank you very much.
And it's kind of hard to "misunderstand" the dislike of one's nation. But whatever.
