A cool dude?! I have often asked Indians in New York -- as to why is it that they very, very rarely call the coolest white Americans a Dude or a cool dude, while they do apply that term largely for African Americans. Mario observes: I don't know about Indians in New York, but in my experience, the term "Dude" is mostly used by young Caucasian college students, especially in California, in conversations among themselves. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=dude Young African Americans tend to refer to each other as "Yo" or "Dawg". http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Yo http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=dawg
