Homophonous phrases

Ok, so the title doesn’t suggest the lightness of reading it all … but once you get the idea, it’s hard to stop repeating this …

 

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo

Now, repeat this to yourself “that was a valid English sentence”

And go write this in your term paper and if the teacher gives you grief that that had too few words, link her to this wikipedia article.

 

Also, under Daniel Tosh’s influence, I just realized, naming my blog “Thank you for visiting. How many I help you” would let me ask visitors this question …

 

Thank you for visiting Thank you for visiting. How may I help you?, How may I help you?

 

… and still be grammar-girl correct, if you know what I mean?!

All thanks to the weirdos on Silk!
