The Dude
Jeff Lebowski is a man of many names, but you probably know him as the Dude. The Dude is the king of all slackers. In the Coen Brothers' 1998 classic The Big Lebowski, the Dude is an unemployed pacifist who whittles away the hours by digging for roach clips and listening to whale sounds on cassette. Most importantly, he has the ultimate slacker hobby: bowling.
Barry
Jack Black plays Barry in High Fidelity, a man who truly embodies the slacker mentality. He doesn't just show up to work late—he chases customers away when their music tastes aren't up to his standard. The worst part? Even if Barry was fired, he'd just keep coming back.
