A "Rudie" is short for Rudeboy/Rudegirl. It means someone who is truly into ska, knows their ska/bluebeat history and origins, and supports their local ska scene. But most kids who claim to be rudies today are not at all truely rudies at all. They're usually only in it so that they can wear checkerboard stuff, which is quite sad...
