Whedonitis

A tendency to parrot the speech patterns of various Joss Whedon characters and incorporate the slang from various Whedonverses (Buffy. Firefly, Angel, etc) into every day speech.
Every time I use the word "shiny" people look at me strangely--as though they never spoken to someone suffering from Whedonitis.

Whedoning

Dude 2: HOW DARE YOU SAY BITCH, MISOGYNIST SCUM?
Chick: Stop Whedoning.

Person 1: Haha you're so right
Person 2: *vomits*
