We’d be able to award cow-flops for poor answers. If you got 10 GA for an answer under ten words you;d get an award for “Milking It.”

Four Good Answers while four people are watching would be an“Udder Delight.”

“Save a horse. Ride a cowboy.” would become a collective pastime.

And

All questions about breeding would have to be marked NSFW.

Your name would be your Brand.
10 K celebrations would be a the Ranch.
Awards would include “It’s a Jersey thing” for showing attitude in an answer, and “Fine Bovine” for great answers.

It’s a shame Bendrew are no longer actively developing this site. I’m digging the Western Theme. It would be a great switchover, maybe once a year.

Before being banned, a mod, now known as Ranch Hands, would admonish contributers to “Get along, little doggies”.

Categories for questions? I like Lean (for General), and Fatty (for Social).

The 20K Mansion? It’s actually a castle, named Chateau Briand.

Instead of occasionally running into Neptune , we would get The Mad Cow

Instead of flagging, we’d be roping.

Instead of going to the mansion, people would go to the bunkhouse or the big house.

Instead of saying “under the orange tree” @wundyatta would say, “Under the corn stalks.”

Instead of convening with the mods to remove trolls, we’d form a posse to smoke ‘em out.

The mods would all have Deputy badges and wear 10 gallon hats.

Auggie wouldn’t have a whip, she’d have a lasso and a six shooter.

@Dutchess_III would be Miss Dutchess, if you please.

Instead of lurve, people would earn pieces of beef jerky.

Would we have to replace boobs Wednesday with boots Wednesday?

Would we have to start referring to Auggie as The Schoolmarm instead of the community leader?

Instead of the angry outburst, “F you! @ so and so!” Would people say, “This town ain’t big enough fer the two of us!” ?
