I feel bad for people that have to witness me stutter I wish they didn't have to suddenly be like "oh shit this guy has a speech impediment!? Let me pretend like everything is normal so he doesn't feel bad" Makes me feel bad for them, and then I panic and try to complete my sentences faster which makes everything worse. What a bother.
