Subway Stutter. So I fancied a Subway so I went to get a Subway after work. I wasn't really thinking about my stutter at the time. So I went for a Veggie Patty, I chose Italian herb and cheese as my bread the cheese was getting toasted. I was on a roll everything was fine no stutter at all. So it was time to choose salad in my head I wanted some lettuce, cucumber and sweetcorn but again it just came out all wrong. This was how it came out Leeettttt *lonnnngblock* (I try again) Leeeet le leeee leeee le *block* ttuce, cucumber I was able to say clearly. It was so weird this just when I am doing so well my stutter pops out of nowhere !! The guy worker was just smiling to be polite but really I could just tell he was probably thinking Daaaaaaa F**K. I didn't even feel like have my Subway after that. I went home after didn't feel like talking to my family so I just went straight to my bedroom and ate my Subway in silent. I hardly ever go Subway now. I now only go if I have a friend who can order for me.
