I use it as a litmus test to test whether someone is friend, foe, or a total jerk when it comes to how I speak. My stutter is not bad. I frequently pause when communicating but nothing where I have re...

100% agreed. If I ever overcome it (lol, sure), I'd definitely care about my words. But you have to understand that most people aren't good at writing their thoughts, or how it can affect others. Even...
