Dumbledore: ‘Yo yo, C’mon into mah castle crib, y’all! This be the Great Hall, known to me by the G-Hall, where I do mah totally crazy speech, dawg! And this is the d-d-dungeons where the creepy S-dawg teaches the kitties ’bout mixtures. He’s totally freaky, dwag. I got the big, flat screen TV up here in mah totally awesome office dawg.
