“”She keeps getting into sentences you wonder if she can ever get out of.”

Reminds me of learning German. You often have to listen to a sentence to the very end, to make any sense of it. It makes for polite listeners.

"Whenever the literary German dives into a sentence, this is the last you are going to see of him till he emerges on the other side of his Atlantic with his verb in his mouth."
