Hey Dude! Whatcha think o' this?

Dude, you’ve got to read this.
A linguist from the University of Pittsburgh has published a scholarly paper deconstructing and deciphering the word “dude,” contending it is much more than a catchall for lazy, inarticulate surfers, skaters, slackers and teenagers.
Here is the whole article (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6676586/?GT1=5936), dude!

All I can say is: DUDE!

Hm, I have to admit that I never use that word when speaking - although an English guy asked me if I was from California yesterday :p

Mia:)

I say "thanks dude" a lot. But I think I may use it more. I really shouldn't have watched that film.
