Dudification 

The evolutionary process of becoming a modern day Dude.

Related words: Dudify, Dudified, Dudifiable.

Today's Dude is becoming more self aware, caring for his body and mind in new and better ways in a rapidly changing world. To help him manage this transformation, he buys products that best suit his emerging self – products that extract, define, and shape his modern masculinity. These products handle the Dude's need for simple and convenient ways to handle new challenges, from how he dresses to the skincare products he uses. Today's Dude is not bound by set stereotypes from past generations - he's all about creating his own path.

As a man experiences Dudification, we say that he is becoming increasingly Dudified.
Steve never took good care of his appearance until he started working with other sharp dressed Dudes in his office. Since then, he has really experienced Dudification in his daily routine - he now really looks and acts like a Dude.

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
