What jokes do you crack during a conversation that addresses your stutter and make the person you're conversing feel less uncomfortable? Whenever I talk to a stranger I just met, or introduced to someone by a friend, I always find myself not talking as much because I'm very self aware of my stutter. And whenever I do try to talk freely, I stutter, and it's very noticeable, to me, how uncomfortable the person gets. So what methods (It doesn't have to be only jokes) do you use to prevent the person you're talking to from feeling uncomfortable. Could you include some conversation dialogues as well?
