I don't know if you stammer/stutter whn you are alone, I know I sometimes do and sometimes don't...so I do. What I do to combat this is focus less on the exact words I'm going to say and instead think...

These "lists" of famous people who stutter are a farce. They once stuttered, but not any more. If they did still stutter they wouldn't have gotten as far as they did....

I feel adult stutterers who do it publicly on TV are a better rolemodel for people who stutter than these famous people who had a stutter when they were younger but were fortunate enough to outgrow i...

I have a couple thoughts The title: I think making the title sstutter (or some variation) is a great idea. Humor can be a fantastic tool. The flair: I like this as well. I would suggest a "success"...

The dictionary definition of "dumb" is "lacking the human power of speech." So I assume that is why he phrased his response how he did. To your question, I've never once thought about becoming mute....

I have to be honest and say the scene that you describe sounds funny to me. Any subject can be funny. It all depends on how it's handled. Even when I was a kid, I was never offended by, say, Porky Pig...

I couldn't agree more I think stuttering is the last disability that is widely accepted that people can ridicule. If they had done a bit on autism their show would get cancelled. but i love how south...

This is a weird one with me. I will not accept jokes made about me/stuttering in front of me and generally, jokes not are usually not very funny. But I find Jimmy off South Park fucking hilarious, so...

Yea, for obvious reasons, I make it a point not to 'embrace' people ridiculing stuttering. Like you, people's opinions of me solely based on my stuttering are pretty much irrelevant. So in a sense, I ...

To a certain extent I agree with you. It's ok to throw around a joke here and there. I just think it's shitty to center it around a disability. I guess I'm probably overly sensitive to it since I stut...

In my opinion, it's all about how it's done. If the sole intention is to be a dick, then yeah, it's bullshit. If someone is actually clever about it and not insulting me, rather the situation, then I ...

I have no issues with this. I didn't begin to "accept" my stutter until I could make fun of it. Maybe it's a coping mechanism; however, making a little joke sometimes eases that awkwardness of a long ...

That's really funny, I'd be for it permanently. It's always good to be able to poke fun at yourself. Plus if you do it, it kinda takes away someone else's ability to. That being said, the last thing I...

I feel bad, but my first suggestion in my head was to change "reddit" in the top left to r-reddit. Maybe just for a week this would be fun if we can mock ourselves a little, but I can understand that...
