I've got a few Firefly ones too:

1) Whenever someone says the word "auspicius" I ask "suspicious?"

2) When someone's being very crude and obnoxious: "I'm... trying to think of a way for you to be cruder. I just... it's not coming." or when very stupid: "I think you have a problem with your brain being missing."

3) "It's been a while since anyone but me has taken ahold of my plough..." :(

4) When showing off new threads to mates: "Pretty cunning, don't you think?"

5) Just yesterday regarding the attempted media blackout in Egypt, but news still coming out thanks to Al Jazeera and such: "Can't stop the signal, Mal."

And of course:
