Haha, not really what I meant with "fuck it". I meant more like I wouldn't let stuttering and my social awkwardness hold me back anymore. I recognise the feeling though. Especially during meetings or brainstorm sessions. My biggest problem always was starting a sentence, when I'm already talking I can be relatively fluent. Before, I would let a good idea in my head slip, when I couldn't get between. Now, when I have started the talking process in my head, but haven't made any sound yet, I just keep my talking going, "narcissisticly", to make my point, even if somebody already started talking. When it bothers someone I explain why I'm acting like that and maybe trow in a couple extra stutters during the explaination on purpose. :P
