Content

One of the most cringe feelings I have is watching a show or movie where an actor/actress portrays a person with a stutter. Watching others in the room laugh at that and then wonder what theh must really think of me…. well it’s shitty…. really an awful feeling. Classic example is A Fish Called Wanda. I love Palin but that just hurt. Still hurts. I know Palin’s father had a stutter so it was done with finess but…. man it just rings in my head like a bell to see people laugh at that if I’m in the room. Watch that one if ya hadn’t though, maybe by yourself if you’re anything like me? lol
