Just Another Nobody But the norm is by definition not having a lisp, so saying someone who doesn't have one doesn't listen is contradictory to the meaning, which suggests you shouldn't judge people, which is exactly what he just did.

@wwerdo4

"the norm by definition is not having a lisp" Pretty sure "norm/normal" has it's own definition. He isn't saying that someone who doesn't have one doesn't listen. He's saying that everyone speaks in different ways, lisp is just the prime example because it relates to him. His primary point is that we don't judge the way we speak, only impose that judgement on others. He says in the beginning that he didn't know he had a lisp until someone brought it up to him. He thought he spoke "normal". "If you suppose your speech is normal, it's cause your impediment is listening" - IE. You probably don't sound how you think you do. You don't hear the subtleties in you you're own because you've grown accustomed to hearing yourself. Don't judge people by the way they speak, instead judge them by what they are saying.

@zaraeraesmith7510

I thought he was saying that in general most people don't have speech impairments so if you only listen blindly when someone tells you what they think is right and you don't question it, than you don't end up with anything original to say and you won't have an original way to say it.

"If you think your speech is normal, that's because your impediment is listening."

I've always known that he had a lisp because I also have a subtle lisp, so when I found this poem of him confronting comments about it, he made me feel really empowered. I usually felt the need to hide my lisp, and I thought that I couldn't do spoken word because it was extremely hard to pronounce 's', but he made me think otherwise, and now I do spoken word to hopefully empower others that feel like I felt about my lisp.

I'm glad to see someone else who knows of this oxymoronic word xD it's been my favorite phobia since 7th grade. I also have to agree with sex daily....I have it myself, makes reading difficult....(sex daily is an anagram for dyslexia).

i don't think anyone has said that many Words that start With S in 3 min then this dude LOL

Honestly I never noticed his lisp until I saw a KZread comment mentioning it...

the attention to detail in delivery with the stammering on stammer and with other words is just perfect.

This is the first video I ever seen, years ago. I didn't actually hear your music until recently this year. It than took me about a month to figure out they were both you! Love the come up man! Don't let that shit die!!

There are no words to express the profound impact you create by saying what needs to be said even though you get slapped right side up the head for it. You're such an inspiration keep going!

I don't know about you guys but I happen to love the way he pronounces s's

This poem is very inspiring 'cause I've got a lisp too. It improved through the years but I still have it and this poem makes me feel like I can actually be proud of it 'cause it's a part of me so why should I be ashamed about it? I think it's wonderful how he performs in front of such a huge audience even though he has a lisp, respect George! That just shows how unimportant it is to have a well...let's call it a 'speaking problem' because the only thing that really matters is what you've got to say!

He went so much more in and was so much better when he did this at the concert I went to =) he was a boss hog

I have a weird love for this in that, I don't have a lisp when I speak comfortably with friends, but my problem is that I have social anxiety. When I speak comfortably with friends no one ever thinks I have any "sexy subtly lisp," but the moment I speak aloud in front of people I don't know I try so hard to make sure every vowel is clear, and perfect that the moment I get to an 's' something translates wrong and suddenly I'm lisping; and then I'm freaking out inside and leaving rooms because I practice so hard to say every word just right and I blew it with an s. This makes me feel better, late sure, but it comes and I don't feel like such a twat for blowing my one moment to look like a regular human with confidence.

Oh man. Watsky. Thank you for this!! I’ve been doing audio at work for the courses I build. I’ve always handed that to a professional in past jobs, and although praise for being really articulate and good at speaking/reading aloud....the lisp. I’m now in a place that doesn’t mind it and when audio needs recorded for a course we’re publishing and the SME doesn’t want to speak, they have me do it! But listening to myself on full stereo repeat, editing every detail, and seeing clearly in the spectral display where my tongue sneaks out between my teeth to try and make yet another word thpotlight that thexthy lithp. Le sigh. I had intense speech therapy as a kid and, while you all can now tell if I am talking about my next door neighbor Juan or my brother Ron (a running family point of humor for many years), my S never really got to that winners circle. I finally sat down this morning and started researching tips and exercises to work on this myself so that my future recordings don’t require so much damn effort and editing finesse. Then I came across this. While I’m still going to work on it, when I get frustrated in the audio editing process, I’m 100% going to pause and give myself a moment of owning it solidarity. Thank you! This is fantastic. 🤜🤛
