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.

    Maybe you should make an edit on the wiki page then so all the other people can understand it as well as you.

    Do any other famous sentences also need edits?
