In Britain, a typical "lad" would be someone who drinks copious amounts of alcohol, goes to football matches a lot and behaves like an idiot, and is generally, well, an idiot!
Thus, laddish would mean... loutish. Or something.

Do you get many laddettes?
Actually how old do most lads get, there's a lot my age but i can't see them ever getting much older than 30 before they grow out of it.
