I do this occasionally but I make sure I say self-deprecating comment AFTER the point of the conversation is addressed. My go-to is “fuck it’s not going well for me today isn’t it? I need coffee” then...

I have to agree with the other commenters. There’s no doubt some people who are going to laugh at your stutter. That idea used to really bother me too, but you have to remind yourself that in the gr...

That's what I love about this too, I've met like two stuttering people in my life and they've both been more than twice my age. I read some memes here some month ago and it cracked me up about how fuc...

I really enjoyed the babysitting one. I’ve had kids do that to me as well, where they just say I talk funny and move on. My baby brother actually said that before I explained to him what Stuttering wa...

LOL! Whoops! Thanks for the heads up. I don't know who made that composite picture, but we should probably fix it. On that note, maybe it's time to update that picture...

Not really. For me personally, a bit of humor helps me get through my stutter (i love Porky the Pig). If we let little things like these bother us, then it won't help us. I use to be the same way, whe...

Sometimes you just need to laugh stuff off. Lighten the mood. What if you had said, "that was a hard one" and laughed with your friends. Are you open about stuttering? Do you talk with your friends ab...
