These two blokes meet after not having seen each other for many, many years.
First bloke asks the second bloke, "How have things been going?"
The second bloke, speaking very slowly, tells the first bloke,
"I.....w...a...s......a...l...m...o...s..t........m...a...r...r...i...e..d"
The first bloke says in amazement, "Hey, you've lost your stutter!"
The reply comes, "Y..e..s, ...I....w..e..n..t.....t..o.....a.....d..o..c..t.o..r......a..n..d..... he...... t..o..l..d..... m..e.... t..h..a..t..... i..f.....I......s..p..e...a..k..... s..l..o..w.l..y...... I ....w..o..u..l..d..... n..o..t.... s..t..u...t..t..e..r."
The friend congratulates him and then asks about how he was almost married.
"W..e..l..l,..... m..y.....f..i..a..n..c..e..e....a..n..d........I...... w..e... r..e ..... s..i.t..t..i..n..g.... o..n.....h..e..r....... p..o..r..c..h... a..n...d......

Why should she throw the ring in your face for that?" asks the friend.
"W..e..l..l,....I.....s..p..e..a..k.....s..o.....s..l..o..w.l..y,.....t..h..a..t....b..y..... t..h ..e...... t..i...m...e..... s.h..e.....l..o..o..k..e..d.... a..t..... t..h..e ... . d..o..g,..... h..e ......w..a..s.......l..i..c..k..i..n..g.... .h..i..s ..... b..a..l..l..s."
