Downgrade Dude 

The Guy that your Ex GF ends up with, that helps you fully understand your true value, and instantly validates what you already knew.... that you were always way too good for her.

You don’t dislike this guy, you love him from the second you see his completely absent, zero style....and his creepy, weathered, Opie like features. 90% of his wardrobe comes from either Bass Pro Shop or Cabelas. He dresses like he is, a Junior in high school, yet plays on a way too old man, weekend warrior, softball or OTL (on to losers) league.

His passion and fire in life....is beer, beach, beer, and bro’s. He might combine 2 of them and do something as riveting and spicy as.......Bass Fishing.

Also know as a Downgrade Bro, he has a bad flat bill surf hat, and way too worn, surf tank top, for every occasion. He sleeps in a hat, has sex in a hat, and showers in a hat. He is always making dumb goofy faces or stupid over exaggerated gestures in every pic. This helps off set the ugly, the age and sun weathering, and the severe lack of handsomeness and endowment. (Big lifted truck/small white dick)

Chaaaa brahhh is part of his everyday vocabulary, and being a beach burnout local is his true specialty and prideful talent. Most likely listens to a lot of really bad white boy reggae....(Iration, Dirty Heads, Rome)
1. Dude surfs up at the pier brahhhh, i saw your Ex’s, Downgrade Dude surfing the polluted turd break the other day brahhh! He looked older than her dad, it’s gross !!!

2. Hey are you still dating that one girl that never smiled, was super bitchy, and just read books in her room? (Person 2)......No my man, her lease was up. I Traded in and upgraded to a sleeker, sportier, sexier model, she went with a serious Downgrade Dude.

3. Can I trade in my Lamborghini for that Peugeot over there? Or my Ferrari for that Citron?.....this would best describe my Gf with me, or her choice of a Downgrade Dude.

Dude you always do this shit 

A phrase Norman "Nick" uses when he feels like he is being plotted against or purposefully exposed. When he uses this phrase it means that he's genuinely done with your bullshit and getting annoyed. He usually uses this phrase whenever Henry is doing some annoying ass shit to get on his nerves. If this phrase is dropped on you, you better quit agitating the nigga because you don't want to face the wrath of the uncaged lion.
Henry: Yo Norman "Nick", you said that the girl over there is pretty cute, you want me to set you up?

Norman "Nick": Dude you always do this shit, stfu. Leave me the fuck alone and stay out of my shit.

Johnny C. Dude 

Johnny C. Dude, a chef in the Orient and Johnny B. Goode's distant cousin (a Chuck Berry tune)

Verse 1
Deep down in East Asia close to COVID-19s

Way back up in the hoods, far from New Orleans
There stood a kitchen whose food tasted so good
Where made dishes a chef named Johnny C. Dude
Who never ever learned to read recipes so well
But for dogs he was the devil straight outta hell

Chorus
Go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Johnny Chink Dude

Verse 2
He used to hang around by the railroad tracks
Carrying knives, a saw and his sharp axe

Oh, the engineers would see him sitting on the hills
Observing railsides to harvest railroad kills
Gourmet people passing by would stop and say:
"Oh my, dat chef boi can cook tho' he's so gay"

Chorus
Solo

Verse 3
Mother told 'im: "You'll be kinda Gordon Ramsay man
Whose cronies are shit and you are the fan
Hungry people coming from miles around
To eat your bats, cats or the foxhound
Your commercial will be on the Michelin site"

Saying: "C'mon man, have a big bite!"

Chorus
"Let's go eat at that Johnny C. Dude's Chinese restaurant."
"Hell no! My dog could offend his mind if he found out."

Dude Filter 

The filter in guys' brains which keeps unspoken love and affection for one another unspoken, as it should be.
When a guy shows way too much physical and verbal affection for another guy, making otherwise normal situations and interactions creepy, awkward and uncomfortable, he has ignored his Dude Filter:

-Extra long hugs.
-Telling a guy he's sweet and you love him.
-Talking way too close to him.

Hey Dude, I saw you nude 

age-old bit of classic school boy doggerel sung to the tune of The Beatles 'Hey Jude'.
Hey Dude, I saw you nude
don't try and fake it,
I saw you naked.
The moment that you went out streaking,
I was at my window -
mmmmm-hmmmm
- peeking.

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
