Dude

Something that is awesome: Weekend breakfast. It is excellent to enjoy a weekend breakfast/brunch with a leisurely cup of coffee. I rarely get to eat breakfast during the week, and if I do it is hastily consumed during my walk to work. My boyfriend takes great pride in creating his weekend masterpieces: perfect fruit salads, eggs, bagels, fresh croissants, French press coffee. Heaven.

Something that is annoying: I overheard this conversation on the T yesterday between two teenage guys:
"Dude, he is NOT happy with you. He is totally pissed off. He sent me, like, a pissed off text yesterday."
"Dude! What did the text say?"
"Dude, I'm not gonna tell you. I'm not gonna tell you. But he is, like, not happy. He is pissed off!"
"Dude! What were the words he used? WHAT DID HE SAY IN HIS TEXT?"
"Dude, I'm not gonna tell you. But he is pissed off."

Horrific memories of middle school came rushing back during this exchange. Clearly guys play the same strange power games that girls do, and guys also love stirring up the drama. The only difference is that they start every sentence with "dude."
