Wow, what and extremely good idea (and useful idea!) for a thread!
 :D

Well there are related bits of Brokie vocab that seem essential around these parts and most of them involve acronyms, etc.

STS- the Story to Screenplay book

TOB- the Old Board (usually referring to the "Big Board" on imdb or sometimes "PT" on imdb).  Can also mean the Old Boards

Big Board/ TOB- the main message board for the film Brokeback Mountain on imdb

PT/ TOB- "Pierre Tremblay" board on imdb named for one of the First Assistant Directors of BBM and was a smaller message board on imdb dedicated to Brokeback.  Like people from the Big Board, a mass exodus occured to this haven called BetterMost during the troll wars which happened in March and April... and are on-going back on the Old Boards.

BBM- is of course, Brokeback Mountain

serious crayons:
HUNH? An Ennis Del Marism used at the end of a statement. Pronounced somewhat like the "huh?" people say in "real life." But unlike huh, hunh is rarely used as a direct question, as in "What did you say?" or "What do you mean by that?"

More often, it serves to provide emphasis and solicit agreement, as in, "Why, that snow barely stuck an hour. Hunh?"

However, as a Brokieism it is used in all of the above ways.
