meme!

Why are they called memes, btw?

Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] penknife and [livejournal.com profile] fannish5:

What 5 pieces of advice would you give to characters in your fandom(s)?

1. Bring grenades
2. Keep your dungeon/brig/small holding compartment off the cargo bay oiled and ready
3. Tell your friends and/or co-workers where you're going. You don't have to be as specific as "out to be kidnapped by hillfolk," or "indirectly on my way to Azkaban," but consider leaving a note with the general locale and the reason for your outing
4. Never throw away a uniform once used to break into an enemy facility.
5. Stay away from Faith. If that doesn't work, bring a video camera.

and by "crew"...

You really mean "fans," right? :-)

I rather happily think that Joss put that in there because he knows his audience, and said audience would proclaim indignation at the changed origin-story, but then furiously write uniform-fanfic.

Are you saying that Joss wants us to write uniform-fetish fic? ;D huh. Well, far be it from me to ignore this.

Oh, he _does_

I can tell. In fact, I'm going to go write some right now.

It may be slightly thin on plot. I hope no one minds too badly. :-)
