How do we recognise another Dude on the street?

[forumdude]

A league of Dudeists

A frame of Dudeists

A toe of Dudeists

Ok, I'm tired.

[Rev. Ed C]

A snoop of private detectives
A stain of pornographers
A brutalisation of police officers (or malibu police chiefs, if you will)

I kind of need to add in some new ones that also go in with the Lebowski theme.

A grooming of pederasts
A frame of bowlers (I like that idea, thanks FD)
An oblivion of nihilists (or a nothing, perhaps?  Needs work)
A refreshment of bartenders
A leeching of trophy wives

And, a true lebowskian original:  A stonewalling of brats.

[cckeiser]

An abidance of Dudeists...A deadbeat of Dudeists?
Not sure which I prefer, like them both.

Ah, you beat me to it, CC - I was going to go with an abidence of Dudeists (or a mellow / a cool / a quiet or even 'a fuckin' a') - liking some of these - esp. "a stonewalling of brats"
A lure (or rash) of strumpets - anyone?
A confusion of Donny's
a pariah of pederasts
a fuck of officials
a swamp (or mire or slither) of sychophants
a tumor of rich fucks
a conceit (or splatter) of artists
a Thatcher of cunts (little bit of politics, there - sorry about that)

I think 'Abide' is a good 'special word'. I do not hear it very often outside Dudeism.
