How language gives your brain a break

Do you mean where I said, "which is not in question form..." I should've said, "that is not in question form..." My inner ear is not ringing any alarm bells there. Care to explain?

I like your example. Never mind about style. I can riff on that: "There's the table we put the apple on.", "Here's the bag I keep my laptop in." And so on. Nice!

I would have sworn that your "verb that just so happens" was once something like "verb which just so happens". Hmmm.
