Hooray for suddenly stuttering on new words?! I’m sure it’s not just me that starts to develop blocks on new words that I don’t normally stutter on. Just when I think that things are getting manageabl...

I’m an old fart so “back when I was a teen”, I beat the piss out of a lot of people. This doesn’t fly nowadays of course. Shame though. Made me less of a victim and more tough. Kids today may never kn...
