My daughter came back from Catechism today with an interesting spiritual fact. Apparently she was told that a dude is another name for butt hair.
It's entry 17 or so on urban dictionary, dated 2006 and searching the internets I see some old stuff from the early aughts referencing a collective conscience that remembers being taught that a dude was an elephants butt hair, or an ingrown one at least.
Is there anything in print in pre-internet days or even a half remembered joke that corroborates this fact, or is it pure mimetical nonsense?

In grade school, it was common knowledge that dude meant 'A hair on an elephant's butt.' Grade school was the late 80s for me, in the American midwest. Later on in life I heard this repeated to me by someone that grew up on the east coast.
