2. You're very concerned over how many of the largest oceanic mammals are left alive, so you shout what? Brevior saltare cum deformibus mulieribus est vita! Anulos qui animum ostendunt omnes gestemus! Latine loqui coactus sum! Balaenae nobis conservandae sunt!

3. A certain king of pop might have shouted this when he was covered in a shower of sparks while filming a Pepsi commercial. Anulos qui animum ostendunt omnes gestemus! Di! Ecce hora! Uxor mea me necabit! Mei capilli flagrantes sunt! Credo elvem etiam vivere

6. You're watching a classic film set mostly in a land somewhere over the rainbow. At one point, the protagonist looks down at her tiny companion and says: Certe, Toto, sentio nos in Kansate non iam adesse Id tibi praebet speciem lepidissimam! Brevis esse latoro obscurus fio Meum cerebrum nocet

8. You're on a date at an Italian restaurant. Just after you sample the manicotti al forno, your date leans forward and whispers something to you. You blush with embarrassment as you tidy up with a napkin. What did she say? Da mihi sis bubulae frustrum assae, solana tuberosa in modo gallico fricta, ac quassum lactatum coagulatum crassum Fortunatus sum! Pila mea de gramine horrido modo in pratum lene recta volvit In dentibus anticis frustrum magnum spiniciae habes Id tibi praebet speciem lepidissimam

9. You're reading a new Garfield strip, and in this one Jon is angry because Garfield has just made an unwelcome addition to the living room carpet. In a fit of baffled anger, Jon says what?

10. It's been a long day (and a long quiz). You'd like nothing more but to kick back with a refreshing and fermented brewed beverage.
