You are right, its impossible (or at least very difficult) to role play with people who are not interested in at least trying. The sort of environment you describe there for example.
(Fortunately I have never seen the word 'd00d' used on Zeb though).
Generally I find that some of our players are quite happy to role play and others are more interested in finding the best weapon they can to kill things with.
Certainly I (and many other of our players) would respond positively to someone role playing.
