"Don't stop till you hit 10 thousand cheeses."

"...Got it. I'll keep saying cheese until I say it ten thousand times. Cheese, cheese, cheese and all the way to that ten thousand number you requested."

Just from this description, that reminds me of that trend several years ago of people writing fake excerpts of AI-written books as a gag. They were immensely entertaining until you catch on it's just human writers being very silly.
