""MY BLOOD!" someone was crying. "She punched out ALL my blood!""
 * The third story arc "Mosaic" is filled with these, generally mixed in with Crowning Moments Of Awesome. Among them are Mal expying Captain Hammer and Jayne pulling a Dan McNinja by There's also Mal's reaction to River, and River's constant berating of Mal for not getting her any chocolate.
 * Oh no, you aren't mentioning "Mosaic" without including the glorious Team Fortress 2 Shout Out.

"""They make funny sounds when they fall over," she called back. "'Moooooo,' wumph." She made a gesture with her hands, pantomiming the act of bovine collapse to illustrate her point."
 * River's response to Mal telling Simon she was cow tipping.

"""Tyen-sah duh ching-wah tsao duh shee-niou huh choo-shung tza-jiao duh tzang-huo!"
 * The "Adrift" story arc features, among other things, Serenity's engines being described as "the prettiest fart I've ever seen," and Big Damn Cake.
 * Which Zoe says Mal is most likely kidding about. So, The Cake Is a Lie.
 * No mention of Echo's real name being John, and his number being 117? Yes, John-117.
 * "Third Interlude" has a bunch, though one of the standouts is an observation by Simon:

The air was also filled with curse words. They didn't make a whole lot of sense, or maybe the people the Captain was yelling at were supposed to be open-minded by enjoying fornication with both livestock and amphibians.

Or maybe Mal was just so angry he was getting shot at over a box of puppies that he stopped caring about his curses being comprehensible."

""So, they're like zombies," Wash said, nodding. "Power armored government zombies. Shiny.""
 * The entire "voice-recording" scene in the "Charity" arc.
 * Inara's distraction of the authorities in "Condor."
 * The epic expansion of the geese juggling gag in "Silver."
 * Wash's assessment of the Hands of Blue.


 * River caltalogues her injuries after a particularly brutal fight against some pirates, ending with her sunburn.
 * Pretty much all of River's mental snark during the Fourth Interlude.
 * Nearly any scene involving River and Jayne, when it isn't a heartwarmer or High Octane Nightmare Fuel. Like the scene in "Silver" where River annoys Jayne into letting her climb up onto his back so she can see what the rest of the crew are oogling, or the "You. Me. Shower." line in "Charity."
