The Dudeism Forum

Welcome from Froggyland, dude.

I don't remember how it was that I found out about Dudeism, but I have been a fan of the ancient Stoics like Epitetus for quite a while, and Dudeism seems to have a lot in common. They both really tie the philosophical worldview together. 

Welcome, Dude! I, too, on a personal level, am a very big fan of Epictetus!

Hi Dudes! I've been lurking the forums for around a year now and got ordained a few months ago. Thought it was time I finally joined in.

Yo Reverend Bizarreh dude, just dropped in to say welcome to the beach community, mang! Good to see you in our family restaurant. Grab yurself place on the rug and abide, dude! Bars over there.

Just dropped in to say, "hey brothers" ... I haven't been here long, just long enough to hit a few threads, and post one on the wedding I did this past weekend. Anyway, lost my train of thought there... Good to be here, man. Looking forward to checking this place out

Hi, I became a member of this forum to get to know the Dudes or dudes and to invite them to the Mardi Gras in New Orleans. A few of us Big Lebowski fans have decided to parade thru the French Quarter on Fat Tuesday as the Big Lebowski Krewe. Anybody in costume is welcome to join us. We will meet at 10AM in front of the cathedral in Jackson Square.

Far out, man! Not in the Big Easy or I'd be there, man.

Wish I could join you, always wanted to do Mardi Gras when I lived in Florida but never was able to get there.  I did get to attend the wedding of a rich friend there a while back and while it wasn't Mardi Gras, it was fun.  Nice being the guest of a rich person, then later make fun of the dresses (the bride had a different multi-thousand $ dress for each part of the day).

Welcome aboard, MGElvis. Wish I could make it, seeing as I'm Acadian (yay, Nova Scotia!). We shall see!

Fuckin' eh, man, that sounds like a very dude-like righteous thing to join in on. Welcome to our beach community, MGElvis. Nice to have you here, dude. Grab a rug and abide, mang!. Bars open! 

Been lurkin' for a while, figured I would step in and say hi with a short story.

About six months ago I was thrust into single parenthood. Little dude and I are getting by, but I had to put the little duderino in day care with other little suburban achievers. He, by all accounts, is doing well. If another achiever is upset, he'll offer up 2 1/2 year old compassion. He is acting very dude like, despite the upheaval.

Yesterday when picking him up, one of the people that work that told me that something odd happened. Two of the boys in the room were fighting over a toy. My little dude steps up to them, putting a hand on each of their shoulders and goes. "No. No. No. No stand." Then takes his hand brings it between the the two other dudes and goes "Slowwww".

Daycare Lady ask me what I thought that meant. I was chuckling. I had to explain to her that little dude's parlance. This is  what he was saying:

"This aggression will not stand."

"Abide."

I was just so proud of my little dude.

That is awesome
Welcome and may you abide well

Super-cool, man.  Welcome to our little party, here in Dudeland.  Please feel free to help yourself at the bar. 

That little dude sounds like a great kid.     

Hello, new here and new to Dudeism. Thanks for having me.
I guess I'll lurk for awhile and learn the lay of the land.
