Brainley is standing in front of a small device somewhat resembling a gramophone. It is labelled CHOMSKY 1000.
Brainley: Behold, the grammarphone - a device capable of generating grammatically-valid sentences. Let's hear what it has to say!
Chomsky 1000: Buffalo buffalo buffalo.
Brainley: I'm...not sure I understand. Could you elaborate?
Chomsky 1000: Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
Brainley: Look, you can't just make an entire sentence out of buffalo!
Chomsky 1000: Buffalo!
Quoth Wikipedia: Indeed, for any n >= 1, the sentence buffalon is grammatically correct (according to Chomskyan theories of grammar). The shortest is 'Buffalo!'
