i'm a cracker, and when i hang around a bunch of hood people long enough i do start to talk like them. its not really conscious, but it happens... i kind of talk down or up to a persons intellect, theres no point in talking to a bunch of hood rats like a college kid, and theres no point in talking to a college professor like a hood rat. As far as the cops go i'm 2-0 against them, just say yes sir, no sir, tell them what you did wrong. first time i was going 45 in a 25 and he said he'd let me go if i guessed within 3 MPH how fast he clocked me. I guessed 43 and he let me go after running my plates. Second time i ran a stop sign with 2 people in shotgun, 5 in the mid row, and 4 in the trunk (i had a tahoe) and got off because i said it was better me driving my drunk friends around then them driving themselves (even though i was lit as fuck, had hella open containers and a few kids had coke and pills on em, but he didn't even search me!)
so basically i talk with whats comfortable with the situation, i can do both, and i really just think its comedy through to talk hella hood with the peeps i kno who talk like that, but i never throw the n word around.
