I say roooof, not ruff. I say route like the word out, not root. I say schedule, not skedule. Also, I modify my speech depending on the crowd. In a party setting, I'll be a bit of a joker and use lots of slang, know w'm sayin? Its a-ite, I'm a let you know, what it is, homes, if I'm a go hang with my bro's, and chill, my shawty be chillin at the crib. I can feel it, s'all good. Props to my peeps.

Later, dude.
