4. I do
But I am 42. I also use things like, cruisin for a bruisin, talk to the hand, I know you are but what am I? and many other stupid phrases and terms that have been used thru the years. I only do it because it is so silly.

5. Yeah dude, I'm 23 and I definitely use the word "dude" as in...
"Dude, check this out." (usually before I do something potentially harmful to myself or others)

"Dude, WHAT the FUCK was THAT?

"Whatever, dude..."

11. And if you see a wallaby-jackrabbit-coyote-deer run in front of your car
and bound up a nearly sheer cliff, the only proper response is...

"DUDE, WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!?!?!?! HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!"

True story.
