Boondocks on "brokeback"

[David Bowie]

The Boondocks cartoon from Sunday 22 January contains a "new slang
alert", defining "brokeback" as "used to describe anything of
questionable masculinity" and giving its etymology as "believed to have
originated from 2005 motion picture 'Brokeback mountain'".

It should be accessible through this link:

The question: Has anyone witnessed this in the wild, or is this an
attempt by Aaron McGruder to create a new term? A quick scan of the
results from googling brokeback -mountain gets a lot of references to
the movie, a lot of plays on the movie name (like "brokeback pastor",
referring to the public outing of a previously closeted gay minister), a
company called Brokeback Media, and a band named Brokeback, but nothing
that seems to use McGruder's definition, at least as far as i could find.

Interestingly, there's a blog entry titles "brokeback boondock" about
the Boondocks TV series that seems to be using "brokeback" in a very
different way--see
