@spunkycumfun then you know what I mean.

Thanks for playing. I'll reveal the answers on Sunday.

Below are the correct answers in parentheses after the quotation.

4. "The issue before is [sic] now is very simple and clear. There is a large and growing movement of leftwing terrorism in this country. It is well organized and funded.

(Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff for policy and President Donald Trump's homeland security adviser, 4 October 2025)

9. “Oh stop! I want to feel my way along you, all over you and up and down you and in and out, particularly in and out ... Oh, God. I'll just live inside your trousers or something. It would be much easier! … Or, God forbid, a Tampax. Just my luck! My luck to be chucked down a lavatory and go on and on forever swirling round on the top, never going down.” (Prince Charles (now King Charles) in a telephone conversation to Camilla Parker Bowles (now Queen Camilla) 18 December 1989; the 'Tampongate' phone conversation was released by the Sunday Mirror over three years later)

I put in quotation #7 just for you!

@spunkycumfun Ah!!! LOL, I hadn’t recognized it in English! It’s from Don Quixote, by Cervantes.

@AuraAviatik6 I thought you'd get it even in the English language.

@spunkycumfun I am used to some phrses of the Quixote in Spanish, and the one about oil and water is a commong saying in Spanish: !Siempre quiere quedar encima, como el aceite" or "No se mezclan como el agua y el aceite"

@AuraAviatik6 To my shame, I've not read the classic book.

@spunkycumfun I did, but in Spanish
