    Make him watch British TV, comedy with regional accents and bad grammar.

    A bit of old Monty Python ought to do the trick.

      I love Monty Python, Benny Hill, Falty Towers, Morecambe and Wise, Are You Being Served?, Terry-Thomas, and many others!  It's true that some of what they say is beyond me, but only less than 15% of the total.

    I have two excellent options that would drive you crazy.

    1. Listen to inmates carry conversations. Many of them I deal with are at an elementary level education. Add slang and weird lingo, you’d go mad.

    2. Read paperwork and forms filled out by inmates. I’m nowhere near a grammar officer, but even I blow a gasket reading their writing.

    Torture warning, Randy - I doubt you could bare to read the following.

    An important part of Randy’s life are all the people who love him.

    The two best things about answerMug is the way people meet who never might otherwise and the way most of the members are so friendly.

    I wrote a sentence. Then the fragmentary phrase.

    I got back on the green horse after he bucked me off. In spite of my four broken ribs.

    In case people haven’t noticed I like to make it clear that I’m anonymous.

    Before Randy has time to resist bouncy boobs might distract him.

    I can’t believe its already Monday again.

    The dog licked it’s wounds.

    The social worker started a fun run, because it would raise funds to help the needy.

    He wants to get a degree in law, or architecture.

    Mary knew from experience, what her boss would say next.

    The tourist jumped into the taxi and he drove off without anyone noticing.

    She’s intelligent and talented and she’s generous and kind.

    She tried to sneak out of the house her mother saw her leaving.

    He ran through the field as fast as he could all the while rain was soaking him to the bone.

    Out for a walk the other day, I found a Rolex guy’s watch.

     After finally breaking camp and setting off on the trail, the morning felt more exciting.

    When Cynthia finally found her sister, she was so happy.

    Andreas felt depressed that Beks gave him no choice, and this ended everything. 

    She excepted his offer to carry her shopping.

    It felt like a breathe of fresh air as it dawned on her that he had no masks or guile.

    Here endeth the torture.

    Whoa - misuse of apostrophes, spelling errors, a split infinitive or two and even a verb in the passive voice! That was hard to read even for me, and I'm way more relaxed about that sort of thing than Randy is. You should check his heart - you want to torture him, not kill him.
