You know, by being a cynical asshole you've basically admitted you're letting your stutter beat you into a certain way of thinking. Hating/being cynical takes energy, letting it roll off your back doe...

You do you... But speaking from my own experience, that mindset didn't do me any favors. I carried a lot of anger about my stutter. I was a cynical \*sshole. In hindsight, that attitude that I thoug...
