Listeners don’t care Just a friendly reminder that the strangers you speak to (and stutter to) 99.9% of the time do not care that you stutter. They aren’t thinking about it, and they definitely don’t go home and tell their family, "you should’ve seen this person, they stuttered!” And if they do care for some reason, or they decide to poke fun at you for it, they have a personal problem and they’re not worth your time anyway. Have a good day, everyone!
