Cos it's a kind of post-stoner, post-70s, exclamation mark that's become old.

i tried to avoid seeing it, but it was playing in the video store last time i was there. i had no idea that said word was used in literally every other line of dialogue of the film (which, judging by the little i saw of it, has got to be theeee worst stoner film ever)

I had a friend who was in a fender-bender while visiting L.A. She was totally bewildered by the girl who rear-ended her, because the girl kept calling my friend "dude" even though they were both women, and my friend was unconversant with the stoner-surfer genderless expansion of the sobriquet. It didn't help that it tended to begin sentences like, "Dude, I can't believe it, I totally don't have insurance."

i can't work out whether girls calling each other "dude" is either the cutest or the most annoying thing i can imagine.

[Jesse and Chester have tattoos on their backs that say "dude" and "sweet."]
Jesse: Dude! You got a tattoo!
Chester: So do you, dude! Dude, what does my tattoo say?
Jesse: "Sweet!" What about mine?
Chester: "Dude!" What does mine say?
Jesse: "Sweet!" What about mine?
Chester: "Dude!" What does mine say?
Jesse: "Sweet!" What about mine?
Chester: "Dude!" What does mine say?
Jesse: "Sweet!" What about mine?
Chester: "Dude!" What does mine say?
[later]

Jesse: [screaming] "Sweet!"

Like, duh, it's the cutest.
And if you're observant, you'd know that I'd like a girl cause I start calling her "dude".

Dude is the WASP equivalent of Shalom or Aloha.

Huk-L, Tuesday, 18 January 2005 05:32 (twenty-one years ago)

rather the fratboy equivalent of "man"

eman (eman), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 05:38 (twenty-one years ago)

I said "dude" to my thesis advisor last week. I was slightly drunk. Then the person sitting next to me made fun of me. :(
