Nearly 100 years of glorious cowboy movie lingo...

Top ten old west phrases that will never sound the same after that damned cowboy movie:

1. "I'm gonna pump you fulla lead."

2. "Give me a stiff one, barkeep!"

3. "Don't fret---I've been in tight spots before."

4. "Howdy, pardner."

5. You stay here while I sneak around from behind."

6. Two words: "Saddle Sore."

7. "Hold it right there! Now, move your hand, reeeal slow-like."

8. "Let's mount up!"

9. "Nice spread ya got there!"

10. "Ride 'em cowboy!"

"You and me are gonna slap leather!"

"A gun is a tool, Marian. No better, no worse than any other tool. An axe, shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that."

"Git along, little dogie."

"Never squat with your spurs on."

"Mine hit the ground first."
"Mine was taller."

"Don't say it's a fine morning or I'll shoot you."

"In my day, a man would stay with you on a handshake."

"I don't favor looking up to the likes of you."

"There's more to being a man than handling a gun."

(insert clever "Arkansas Toothpick" double entendre here)

Sorry, but I'd bet more newspeople saw that movie than any ranch folks.  Just another three-day wonder for the nattering and chattering class to get excited about.  It won't be long before you can say, "Brokebutt Mountain" and you'll see folks stop to try to remember what it was.

And it wasn't much, to begin with...

Heck, cowboy lingo is still safe, considering that the bareback mountaineers were shepherds.

Just found this, and I immediately thought of this thread.

Perhaps you guys might prefer the sequel?-

I already have the DVD to "Brokeback Mountain 2:  where the boys aren't".  I've watched it just a few times.Cheesy

Brokeback Mountain, where men are men and sheep are scared...

They WERE herding sheep? (uh, didn't see the movie) If so I'd say "lanolin" shocked

I sent the list out to the office - loud bellows of laughter emanated from offices and cubes for about the next 15 minutes or so.

The gun guys and western lovers got the most kick out of the list...

Thanks for posting it.

I don't know about the rest of you, but the 'Blackburn the Martyr' line had me laughing aloud.
