Here's one line I have if anyone makes fun of my stutter: "Don't worry your mama wasn't actually stuttering last night when you heard her from her bedroom tell her I'll be round same time tonight" I have a few others but usually when you go for the jugular in their mamas it gets the person real vexed. Good way to turn the table on people. We stutter but we should never let a stranger a person who does not and will not care if we drop dead tonight have an affect on our life and stop us from doing anything. This stutter has empowered me more than the force has empowered luke skywalker. Took a long time to realise that but better late than never I say.
