Are We Bombers or Duders?

Lately I've noticed that a lot of people call GB members Bombers. I always thought we were Duders. Both sound pretty stupid, but Bombers is worse.

Duders.

I've always used Duder, but I don't really care.

We're dudebromers.

Nay, we are but men.

Manners.

Duders.

Why not use them interchangeably?

I was quoting Tenacious D because I was momentarily 12 again, then I realised the other implications.

So I changed it to an even more dumb post.

Both.

Because you can't, that's why.

Duder, it's over...

The staff are bombers.
 
Community members are duders.
 
EDIT: I feel I should note that a bomber is a specific subset of the duder category.  All bombers are duders, but not all duders are bombers.

I vote we can use them interchangeably. People call the crew in their emails shit like Bombadiers and Bomb Crew, and Ryan doesn't complain. Plenty of groups have multiple names.

Duders and duderettes.

I always assumed that "bombers" was slang-slang for "bomb crew" which was slang for "the Giant Bomb staff".

bombers are the crew, and we're the duders.

I've never played that game before.

As long as you leave me out of it, you can use whatever name you want.

This was my assumption as well. I vote Duders, Duders.

You do realize that I was joking when I said you can't, right?

That makes sense.

I think he means Tribes: Ascension.

No, seriously, I haven't played that before.

You are tearing away at the fabric of society! Shut your mouth, good sir!

Some men.. some men just want to watch the world burn.

You got me for a second there! I hope I get to murk Ryan tonight for this

Duders always and forever.

Duders is what I will always be. It's on a T-Shirt for gods sake!

Dave says 'Duders' so it has to be right.

Duders for sure.

We are Duders and the staff are Bombers.

I think using bombers will get the Feds in here to investigate this racket, I'm going to go with duders, sounds original and it gets a red squiggly when I typed it in making it 10x cooler.

I've always thought both.

Nonsense. A federal raid always spices things up.

I'm a duder, he's a duder, she's a duder, we're all duders - HEY!

I use Duder, not a fan of bomber.

We are duders.

Duders for life

Bomber Duders.

Problem solved.

MattyFTM, answering life's unanswerable questions one at a time.

I am a Duder first and a lover second.

I like saying Bombadeer.

fuckin nerds

We're no terrorists so I'd go with duder.

Once a duder, always a duder.

You guys are over thinking this. We are Duders to each other but Bombers to those on the outside. Only a true Bomber understands what/who is a Duder.

I would say duders.

Gotta be Duders.

Let's not turn Giantbomb into some social classification like Juggalo or Maggots please.

I'm going with Duders just because it was first. Doesn't really matter, though.
