I mean, over the internet, on social media? I'm a stutterer and I'd still wonder if I was getting trolled. Hell, I've *been* trolled in stutter voice chat by fluent speakers, lol. She did laugh and was obviously confused and pretty insensitive, but I also have to give her credit for talking to him for a good while and trying to understand him and answer his questions instead of just bailing. And while I'm looking for the positives in this, that dude having the courage to do that is very inspiring. Rock on, dude!
