I want to compile a list of all the funny linguistic habits these guys have, it’s so peculiar hearing them speak. I liked the guy who said, 'i’d say that that’s slightly over-egging the pudding ... to put it mildly!

Did "Arthur Lee" collect pigeons and dye them, so he could watch all the colors fly through the sky?

I think it's funny how the cops under interrogation seem never to spend any time fighting crime.

Just reviewing employment procedure and seeking assurances.
