Sent in time, though I didn't bother to check when the closing date was and just copied the questions from the first post. Could have made myself look even more dumb than I will when the results come out by sending my answers after it had closed.

There was once a young Gay from Kartoum
Who took a lesbian upto his room
and They were up all the night
over who had the right
To do what, with which and to whom!

Edit the second - as per Boshko's complaint, upped "Drink it" on Q7 to four points, and thus upped Stefu's, Richeliu's and Stuie's total scores by one and Boshko's by three. This put Stuie ahead Method, Richeliu ahead Ben Kenobi and mrmitchell, and Boshko ahead Method and a heap of other people. Skywalker remains the winner, however.
