In this New Age of the Scarlet Letter, where we look not for the good in people (or literature or art history) but for anything we can use to label them as racist, sexist, and generally unwoke, we need to find cultural role models we can join together and all look up to. That’s where The Dude comes in.

The Dude is among my greatest heroes–right up there with Yossarian.

Hahaha. Yes, Yossarian. Another great anti-hero. I loved the book but it’s been many years.

Yes the Dude is an inspiration. But how about the Coen brothers for sardonic inspiration, and all the other great artists out there like Gary G and yourself too, who show us the light somehow. Here’s to the light!

Thanks, Stephen. Yes, to all the great lights in the anti-hero universe. If I bring any light to the game, to paraphrase Isaac Newton, it’s because I’m standing on the shoulders of giants like the BIG Lebowski. (Wait! The BIG Lebowski was the other guy, wasn’t it 🙂 )
