To Use "The Dude" on some one - to invoke the word "dude" when
referring to someone directly in an (often last-ditch) effort to relate
to that person on a less formal or "guy to guy" level.
Ex. 1.: "Then, I used the dude on him, but he still didn't get it?"
Ex. 2.: "I used the dude on him. I said, "hey, dude; that's weird."
A kind of gentleman who lives to work out and party. Normally Nah Dudes sustain themselves on a diet of cottage cheese and protein powder. The name comes from their constant usage of "nah, dude" in conversation, such as "Yo broseph, did you bring that skank from the party home last night?" "Nah, dude. I had to pick up more cottage cheese and lift stuff instead."
"My roommate gets up at six each morning and works out before class. He then works out again after class. Dinner is normally steak and cottage cheese."
"Sounds like you're living with a total Nah Dude."
