    Again, the weird paraphrasing, is why it’s funny. No-one is actually doing it with those exact words except to be funny.

    It’s like asking someonen to to hang out by saying “could thine be compelled to spend a night in mine company, perhaps during the consumption of sustenance?”

    Paraphrasing is the act of saying something with different words. Using unusual, inaccurate, hyperbolic or too many words is a common way to be funny.
