Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Every Western has a scene where The Dragon picks a fight with the hero in the saloon, right?
  • Rather than fight, the two cowboys argue over the Good Cowboy archetype, concluding with:

Rex: I thought it was just (being) heterosexual.
Bob: No, it's Confident Heterosexual.
Rex: Oh ... I didn't know that.
Bob: [bites his lip] Well, don't worry, I'm just gonna shoot the guns out of your hands.
Rex: I'd rather you shot me in the heart.
Bob: You know I can't do that. Five, four --
Rex: [muttering] Confident...
Bob: Three, two --
Rex: "Uh, look, Bob, I can't fight you today. M-maybe tomorrow. Or Thursday. Yeah, Thursday'd be good. I'll see you then. [flees the saloon]
