Fellow average dude, Scott, passed this video along to me last week and at first I really didn’t know what to think about it. I had to read the title twice because it didn’t really make sense. This movie is not a new comer to the block. It was debuted in 2006 at the Sundance Film Festival and really didn’t hit it off. However, Mr. Will Ferrell has taken to it and claims it to be the “best comedy ever”. That’s really all the movie need and has now gotten a fair amount of internet buzz. If you’ve seen this flick give a shout about it in the comments. I hope to see it soon

Monica Keena is best known as Abby on Dawson’s Creek, but I didn’t watch that crap so I know her from Freddy vs. Jason. She’s a surprising 29 years old. (more…)
You may be asking what the hell is a SPURMO. It’s a Single Proud UnmarRied Man Over thirty. Yeah, don’t try to make sense of the acronym, just accept it. Tad Safran, British writer, discusses about this dying breed of men in a recent article in The Times, a London newpaper. Being old and single is always feared by people but he offers some light at the end of the tunnel.
It is a stage of life to be embraced and encouraged. We can do pretty much whatever we want, whenever we want and can generally afford to do it. More importantly, remember all those beautiful women who wouldn’t give you the time of day when you were in your twenties? If they’re still single, in their mid-thirties, desperation has probably caused their standards to drop low enough for you to stand a serious chance.
It’s a funny read if you have the time, and has a supporting site that helps you further understand SPURMOs. Here’s a short list of questions to ask yourself to tell if you are one. (more…)
After months of hype, the fourth Indiana Jones film has had its initial run at theaters. It managed to rake in $311.1 million worldwide, making it a financial success. But was the movie any good? What did you think? Discuss in the comments.
Kelly Monaco has had a ton of small roles in stuff like Baywatch, Idle Hands, and BASEketball. Probably the defining moment that launched her career was when she sent nude photos of herself to Playboy at age 20 and became their Playmate of the Month for April 1997. She’s turning 32.
A woman vacationing in New Zealand got fed up after being repeatedly whistled at by some construction workers.
The Israeli tourist was about to use an ATM in the main street of Kerikeri, in the far north of the country, when the men whistled, the New Zealand Press Association reported.
She calmly stripped off, used the cash machine, before getting dressed and walking away.
See? You really can do anything you put your mind to.
Now I don’t really care about cars that much. I’ve often viewed them as a waste of money and plus we should really be using hover boards and floating crafts by now. So I was really shocked when I saw the price of this 1961 Ferrari. It was recently sold at an auction for .……$10,894,900. Now that is a lot of coin for one car. I can’t fathom spending that much on your dream car, seeing my dream car is a red convertible 1992 Chrysler LeBaron.
I really hope this guy’s son calls in sick to school one day and takes this thing out for a joy ride and then crashes it trying to roll the miles back.
In case you don’t remember the fine piece of auto-machinery that was the Chrysler LeBaron, take a look after the jump. (more…)
You may have noticed recently that there haven’t been a whole lot of posts here, and most of them end up being our Birthday Girls posts. I just want to let you all know that Average Dudes is not going anywhere.

Hopefully soon things will settle down a bit and we’ll be back to updating you with the best useless crap our minds can….crap out. Gross. Sorry.
