After reading this post at Redneck Ramblings where he used the phrase "Brokeback Bloggers" to insinuate the existence of man-on-man love without having to come right out and SAY it, it occurs to me that - over the next month or two - the word "Brokeback" is going to be put in front of a LOT of other words as a way of dropping a wink and a nudge.

Sorta the way "-gate" gets added to a word to denote a scandal.

Figure this might catch on, too. Here's a list of semi-random words with Brokeback prepended:

Brokeback metrosexual
Brokeback google
Brokeback time porn
Brokeback dog whisperer
Brokeback Google bombing
Brokeback wrap rage
Brokeback puggle

Brokeback cracker
Brokeback helicopter parent
Brokeback sleep inertia
Brokeback geomythology
Brokeback hasbian
Brokeback toxic bachelor

Hope those mental images don't leave you TOO scarred.

I only linked the ones I haven't seen used on blogs I visit. Figure you can Google the rest, if they're not on the Word Spy Top 100 anymore.

By the way, I challenge you to use any one of the phrases from the Brokeback list in a sentence.

For example: "Desperate for cash, Harvey tried being a Brokeback Camgirl."
