joking with a stutter You know that feeling when you're about to tell the funniest joke ever but can't manage to say the punchline, then you struggle to finish the joke even though you know it won’t be funny anymore and you give up. Then people feel bad and say, 'No, no, tell it, tell it,' and they laugh out of pity, but everyone knows it's not funny anymore. It's the highlight of my day every time... :')
