Rodeo Talk VS Ranch Talk

[Older Whiskey]

Anyone else think some rodeo folks purposely use bad English in order to confirm they are real rodeo?

"Yeah, that's what I seen and then I done a stupid thing."

The problem I have with such talk, is since rodeo sprang from ranching, it makes ranchers look ignorant.

What is with all the rodeo talk where words sound like the talker has a mouth full of peanut butter? Ranchers don't talk like that, not even in East Texas. I wonder if that mush mouth talk came from the days when bull riders always had a plug of Bull Durham in their cheek?

Now, another discussion is about spelling. While "you all" is commonly written as y'all, I submit that it is correctly yawl, just as it sounds. When a calf is looking for its mama, does it b'all or bawl?

A bull calf that was transgendered to a steer may have lost his balls, but he can still bawl.

I'm more interested in your financial advice.

That is very sad, but OK ...

I went in to apply for a special offer, no interest, loan and the young loan officer showed NO INTEREST in loaning me any money, so I can't accuse the bank of false advertising.

I tried quoting Baby Face Nelson in a loud voice, "Jesus Saves, I withdraw," but the bank manager laughed and reminded me that if I wanted any money, I needed to be shooting a Tommy Gun into the ceiling. Those danged important details get me every time. Fine print and specific details are my downfall.

So when folks come to the US from south of the border, and are taught English in Texas do they talk with a "drawl" ?

Perhaps @DosArroyos can answer this. I haven't been to Texas in 60 years , so I can't comment on the current situation. I know from watching bull riding, that the Brazilians that learn English tend to talk like other rodeo cowboys but with a Portuguese accent.

You must have deleted your financial advice signature. That's what I was referring to in the earlier post.
