Did The Dude postdate his check? Or simply not know what day it is?

Makes me wonder. What year was he already a roadie for Metallica? 86-87 was the Puppets tour. Maybe he and Cliff Burton were pals and the rest were a buncha assholes. The prequel plot thickens……

Speed of Sound tour, not an actual tour they ever had.

Yes, the Dude post-dated the check, but that's not all. Remember all the stuff about Iraq and Operation Desert Storm? That seems to set the movie in late 1990 or early 1991.

The Dude post-dated the check by about a year.

Bush Sr. gave that speech in August of 1990, yes.

And in fact he met privately with the President, though unfortunately there wasn’t time for a photo opportunity.

Isn’t that scene set at night? If you want to assume perfect continuity it can’t have been live anyway. Are we gonna split hairs here?

Live, no, but could easily have been covered as something that just happened

Laziest man in Los Angeles county, but sly like a fox.

He wasn't aware what date it was; Marty reminded him of that

And I just noticed there’s a phone number written in the upper right… this had not occurred to me, dude

That's no whale. It's a, uh, amphibious rodent.

Nice catch dude, Mr Lebowski was high and probably forgot what day it was…

I have never noticed the whale on the check.

Best answer for this question. The dude just lives, doesn’t worry about what date it is.

He had to check with his accountant, ya know, to make sure the funds would, uh, be there when the check was uh, uhh, cashed. They had to establish early that The Dude wad poor AF. Hasn't that occurred to you, man? Sir?
