Place the proper punctuation in this sentence so that it makes sense.

Jack whereas John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher

Also, feel free to post more sentences like this ITT. The only other one I know is "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo." But that one doesn't require any punctuation other than the period at the end.

Jack, whereas John had had "had", had had "had had"; "had had" had had a better effect on the teacher

I thought a thought, but it wasn't the thought I thought I thought; if I had thought the thought I thought I thought, I wouldn't have thought so much.

^x5 That's correct; well done.

Here is another fun one, via Wiki: Wouldn't the sentence "I want to put a hyphen between the words Fish and And and And and Chips in my Fish-And-Chips sign" have been clearer if quotation marks had been placed before Fish, and between Fish and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and Chips, as well as after Chips?

"I want to put a hyphen between the words 'Fish' and 'And,' and 'And' and 'Chips' in my Fish-And-Chips sign"

That one was kinda easy. The had one makes segments of my brain explode

Oh, yeah, that wasn't an "add punctuation" one. Just a funky sentence. The punctuation is already in there. Sorry for not being clearer. The one in the OP was the only one where you had to add punctuation.

That "that is" is. That "that is not" is not. Is that it? It is.

^^^^There's an extra "And" in there. The sign would say "Fish and and Chips."
