Do the Dude

Almost every day, you wake up at noon, chomp down a big bowl of Cap’n Crunch, and watch a few hours of trash TV. Then you invariably skip your midday shower and forget to shave while bumming around the house in an old pair of unwashed sweatpants, stanky poncho, and...

Almost every day, you wake up at noon, chomp down a big bowl of Cap’n Crunch, and watch a few hours of trash TV. Then you invariably skip your midday shower and forget to shave while bumming around the house in an old pair of unwashed sweatpants, stanky poncho, and sandals. Around dinnertime, you smoke a whole bowl and contemplate the mystery of the universe before settling into a nice, deep nap.

Normally, the world would just slap you with a label like “slobby loser.” But this Tuesday at 8 p.m. is gonna be The Big Lebowski Night at Bar, so thanks to your shitty clothes and shittier personal hygiene, you will officially become the Dude. Expect ransom cash, bowling balls, and carpet-pissing — not to mention the Coen brothers’ cult flick on the big screen. There will also be $5 white Russians and a one-dollar drink discount for anyone who comes dressed as Jeffrey Lebowski, AKA His Dudeness, Duder, El Duderino.
