Subject: Grunt = Sherlock Holmes?

Every new day is a gift, it's a song of redemption.

Okay, so I was playing Firefight on Chasm Ten with the IWHBYD skull on. Now I'm used to some of the things these crazy little bastards say, but this caught me completely off guard (so much so in fact that I was laughing too hard to hold the controller).
A grunt is running around and I hear something along the lines of this, "Okay, I'll be Sherlock Holmes and go look for him. Somebody get me a pipe and a hat!"
Now I know some of you might find this completely ridiculous and/or absurd, but has anybody else ever heard this?

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

I should have gone into theatre mode but it totally slipped my mind. If anybody else hears this and can record it please send it my way. My GT is Johns7erMons7er. Please let me know if anyone hears this stuff.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I was stuck during endure while the IWHBYD skull was on and heard the grunt say: "This is revenge, -blam!-!" Later I found out that was the line donut from red vs blue said as he threw a plasma grenade and stuck Tex

Haha, that's pretty cool.

Yeah that was in Halo 3 as well. I know becuase I got it. I never heard it before and I haven't heard it since. That's clearly a very rare saying I would say.
