I'm starting a 'dudes' thread so Americans can express polite fraternal disdain in their native language

classic or dude

did you know that poopdood reads the same upside down as right side up?

Maynard just dropped the last great album of the 2010s, and the best you dudes can do is sit around bickering about his fanbase? Unbelievable! Thankfully some of us still remember what we're here for (hint: the music) https://i.imgur.com/4O2tbeW.gifhttps://i.imgur.com/4O2tbeW.gifhttps://i.imgur.com/4O2tbeW.gifhttps://i.imgur.com/4O2tbeW.gifhttps://i.imgur.com/4O2tbeW.gif

Alright, dudes, I'm out.

^ under-appreciated revelation imo

this information was suppressed by the media, dude

whatever dude

in far northern california we pronounced it "deed"

"Sup deed?"

are dudes and lads white?

I can't really speak to "lads" but "dudes" are not necessarily white, no

what the heckin' frick, dude?

Lads aren’t even male, it’s a gender neutral term

lads are anyone but tbf thats possibly anglo irish usage

SCENARIO 1
- "Tell me who's Kenny again?"
- "You know? Dark-skinned dude going out with Becca? Got that red Charger?"
- "Oh yeah. He's cool."

SCENARIO 2
- "Tell me who's Kenny again?"
- "You know? Dark-skinned lad going out with Becca? Got that red Charger?"
- "Dark-skinned LAD? What the fuck, dude?"

Lads aren’t even male, it’s a gender neutral term

is the use of lad as in lad mag and laddish a cultural difference or a historical change or both?

dark-skinned lad

that's the anglo usage in my head and prob not as good

xp ffs that is def not the usage to introduce

SCENARIO 1, in a normal country
- “Yeah Enda got me the tickets for the county final, sound fella.”
- "Who's Enda again?"
- "You know the fella who works in the credit union, the Chinese lad"
- "Grand so."

SCENARIO 2, in an unnamed country
- "HEY GUY YOU KNOW THAT KUTTER GUY?"
- “WHAT?”
- "YOU KNOW? DARK-SKINNED DUDE GOING OUT WITH BECCA? GOT THE RED CHARGER?"
- "DARK-SKINNED DUDE, ARE YOU FOR REAL, ARE YOU CECIL RHODES RIGHT NOW"

I prefer the Enda way.

What's this about Enda Kenny?

I lost it at ARE YOU CECIL RHODES RIGHT NOW

I prefer the Enda way.
