Must've been. I was in my 20s in the '80s in the midwest and "dude" was more popular than "hey" for a time. It was mostly fading by the '80s though.

Some of the early posts in this thread made the book sound interesting, but if it's full of pop culture references and "Duuuuude!" I'm probably too old for it

I wouldn't say this book over-does it with pop-culture references. It does get a bit Google-heavy at times, though. And either "Dude" was used pretty sparingly or I'm more OK with duuuude than I might have realized.
