i think i had (have????!!?) a very minor speech impediment and NO ONE TOLD ME????? out there sounding like some owo motherfucker and no 1 thought 2 mention it??? jesus h christ ive always known Rs are a hard letter for me but i didn't realize i sounded like that!!!!! i just. can't stop thinking abt how this slid under the radar my /whole entire life/. come 2 think of it i DID get a LOT of comments from a LOT of different ppl abt some supposed accent i always had 2 insist i wasn't putting on. hm.
