7 out of 7
I must admit I totally guessed on the last one.

7 out of 7 I must admit I totally guessed on the last one. I took an educated guess for that one. Really, though, it's not too difficult given what "interro" obviously refers to, and therefore it's not a stretch to assume that the "bang" indicates exclamation.

That's what I assumed as well, but it was one of those scenarios where I thought that might be too obvious to be true. |

It doesn't matter what we say here, you obviously can't read!

I had never heard of an Oxford comma before - likely because I'm Canadian.
I plead ignorance on this. Is that an option for me?

We have no Oxford comma in the German language, because X,Y and Z is always a list of x, y, z. The "and" is merely indicating the end of the list. And we would put no comma if we want to say the strippers JFK and Stalin. It's no list but the information who the strippers are.
