I don't think that most people find it annoying. None of my friends really care, nor do most strangers that I stutter in front of seem to care. I guess I just don't like seeing it in the media. I still refuse out of stubbornness to watch The Kings Speech. To be honest, I don't know why I feel this way exactly, but as somebody who's stuttered his entire life, the less I think about it the better (which begs the question: Why am I even on here?!?!). Maybe it just reminds me too much of my own personal frustrations. But yes, I do wish everybody spoke fluently and eloquently :)
