[4] The sound of being K-holed +/- rotor blades
@todo - research best microphone to capture "my dignity"
Have you read Tim Dorsey at all? His stuff is full of this type of humor, with notes of whatever decades of covering Florida Man stories for a Miami newspaper does to a man.
Yeah, I grew up in PA and that's pretty common there, but when talking to one person, it's usually "Hey dude" or "Hey man" (also mostly gender-agnostic) Only that one guy would use it for one person, sometimes similar…
Once upon a time, I was staying at a friend's house; her dad was something of an amateur military historian - two rooms full of wall-to-wall bookcases on military history, some SciFi, and all kinds of other stuff. Not…
I'm apparently in a minority here, but I've only known one guy to use it as a term of address (vs. how I just used it), and he notably did it with everyone, a la "dude" (so much that "Guy" became his nickname). Chief,…

Meanwhile, on the internet: meh, Wikipedia has a table with bigger numbers.
Yep and yep, but the latter just illustrates the point. On the spectrum of unemployed fry cook to 6-figure tech job, "attracting recruiter spam bots" and "attracting overly-clever recruiters" isn't far from actually…
A database of people who have access to databases, cross-referenced with a database of people who have abused database access, only accessible by the most rigorous of procedures, etc, etc. should solve this. Sure, $10…
