After reading that article, I looked at the word "buffalo" and didn't recognize it.

LOL at the article.

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?Good lord. I can't believe the word buffalo repeated six or seven times IS A GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT SENTENCE. Or that John thing in the links section underneath.

And for that matter... English is really starting to bug me. It needs to be simplified. We'd lose some of the eloquence, but dammit, it's so ridiculous.

That is insane. I just broke my brain. Then I broke my mom's brain after I figured out the intonation required to say it right.

Also, for some reason, it led me to flies, and after over 20 years of having known of Rescue Rangers, I only just now figured out why they called him "Zipper."

Buffalo means to bully? Since when? I've never heard it used that way before. But that sentence only exists because somebody happened to name a town Buffalo, which is a stupid name for a town really. Did it used to be called "Buffalo Town" or something, because that's just where they had a lot of Buffalo come from, but was then just shortened to "Buffalo" because nobody could come up with anything better to call the place?

A better stupid sentance is that Hallows one which is basically the same as the Buffalo one but makes more sense. Can't find the link to it now though.

There are a few similar phrases in finnish too. In this one, it's not the same word, just a few very similar words, but just try saying it fast. Or at all.

"Kokoa kokko kokoon. Koko kokkoko? Koko kokko."

I prefer those little american towns supposedly called 'Paris' or 'Rome' etc.

I can only assume this phrase is extolling the Finns love of cocoa puffs.

There is actually a Rome, Wisconsin. There is also a town called Maine, like the state.

My favorite, though, is Hell, Michigan.
