OK, now you try composing a sentence with "stuff stuff is is."

What I say is stuff your "stuff stuff is is" stuff, is that clear?

Quite clear, but ... really! Just stick the whole string in a quote!?? Talk about your cheap gimmicks!

Of course, my original example is worse. I was simply writing a sentence, noted that it contained a couple of awkward repeats, and was getting ready to recast the whole thing to get rid of them ...
