I love the idea of a “punk rock stutter”! This is such a great reminder that we are all human and have our failings and disorders and anxieties about them. Accepting them and incorporating them into who you are is the way to go.
I agree with Kristi, empowering and delightful! I wonder what I’d openly reveal... my perceived flaws are more internal I think, and I almost wish I could claim something like a stutter as being punk, but maybe mine would be insecurity? Lol I could make a t-shirt 😂
Kind of makes you realize that adversity often makes us more creative, more of who we turn out to be.
Specifically riffing off of the "punk rock" mention, there have been some bands that have sort of embraced the stutter of the lead singer. Specifically, Dead Kennedys, Rancid, and of course proto-punks The Who ("T-T-t-t-talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-g-generation!").
This was both empowering and delightful. Embracing our perceived flaws, whether external or internal, is probably one of the hardest things we can do. I'm definitely not there yet, but it sounds so liberating. Thank you for sharing.
I turn 33 next week and I really feel like this decade has been about confronting my flaws so viscerally that I can no longer deny them or cover them up and the work of this decade is claiming and embracing them as dear parts of myself. TL;DR I haven’t yet but I’m trying.

I'll buy the shirt as whatever it says will be true for me as well I'm sure

Fun piece today!
Thank you, I love learning about these other band stutterers!
