I’m pretty sure I saw this go by on the BBS:

Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski: One of the Lamed Vovnik?

Maybe you were thinking of Walter’s undies?

I’ve got a friend who looked like The Dude 20 years ago. I told him so, he disagreed and complained a little.

The following Halloween, he dressed up (down?) as The Dude.

Well, he is a righteous Dude (certainly more than Ferris Bueller). Truly a role model for all men.

My wife Laurie has never seen this film. When I gave her my synopsis she said ” Oh, its a GUY movie. ”.

That’s just, like, her opinion, man. But give it another try, telling her it’s actually a “re-defining what it means to be a guy” movie. Seriously.

I tried showing The Big Lebowski to my 21-year-old nephew. We did not make it very far, as he was annoyed with the constant use of the word “dude”.

These young people…

If he didn’t like dude, he could have gone with his Dudeness … Duder … or El Duderino, if, you know, he’s not into the whole brevity thing
