Just something to share. My two cents, I think 'dude' has gone full circle and become derogatory again. When someone calls me 'dude', I feel I am being talked down to, (the speaker is expressing that he finds me stupid or naive) and that the speaker is (unbekownst to me up to this time) very likely a semi-literate fool.
That the only adjective he seems to know is 'awesome' should have tipped me off sooner.
