No problems there. You can substitute other words to confirm that the sentence makes sense.
Note that that sentence that had had, had words other than had and that had had an impact.

Well, given that there isn’t a similar sentence that makes sense (without inserting words). Yes.
I mean, I appreciate that it’s a bit of linguistic fun dreamt up by Dmitri Borgmann. But it’s flawed. It needs an additional (non-buffalo) word to make proper sense.


Without an additional word between words 2 and 3, this is just a list. That’s why it makes no sense.
You only think it makes sense because you are adding in words subconsciously.
Still waiting for an example that actually works.


Quaterback Twins Greenbay Packers draft, play Detroit Lions.
Nope. Still missing a word.
If the sentence was technically grammatically correct then a direct substitution of all 8 words (without adding more) should make sense.
I’ve already provided a counter example where it doesn’t make sense. I’ll drop my argument if you can find one that does.


Are you saying the following sentence is perfectly fine English?
Quaterback Love Greenbay Packers drafted, played Detroit Lions.

Quaterback Love [that] Greenbay Packers drafted, played Detroit Lions.

Washington cats [missing] florida rats chase, annoy Vegas whores.

Spoken, not written:-

Buffalo buffalo WHICH Buffalo buffalo, buffalo buffalo Buffalo
It annoys me that the quoted sentence misses out essential words.


This is the only way to beat the house.


Only When I got to season 3 did I understand why people rave about it. Each season is like an onion layer.


They are worshipped because they were the first in their particular area (neon cyberpunk, Space FX, non-linear storytelling). Each has been improved on by so many other films that the originals pale in comparison.
They are classics, but not timeless.


Now it makes sense why so few British comedies work in the US. The US only knows how to laugh at the hero’s jokes.


Even Wallace and Grommit? It has the best chase sequence captured on film
You seem to be saying that rich people are nicer than poor people.
I love it when twins nickname their siblings “Spare parts”
So, use a computer for ideas but be dishonest?
