    Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

    That is a completely valid, grammatically correct sentence.

    Buffalo means three things in this context. The city, the animal, and a obscure verb that means 'to bully'.

    This is what it translates to: Bison from Buffalo, New York, who are intimidated by other bison in their community also happen to intimidate other bison in their community.

    You and drie might get a kick outta this one (if I remembered right)

    Als Graven Graven graven graven graven Graven Graven graven

    Eh? Still don't get it, but must be caused by my English vocabulary limitations. :/
    Anyway: you were pretty quick with banning that photoshop guy. I was about to click and report, but it was gone already. XD

    Jill, where Tom had had "had," had had "had had." "Had had" had had a better effect on the teacher.

    Without punctuation, just for fun:
