You might need to add acceptable responses to the jodhpur question. I tried horseback riding and equestrian before trying riding.

Definitely not herpes! Human papilloma virus is completely different. For the record, the medical abbreviations are HPV for human papilloma virus and HSV for herpes simplex virus.

I wouldn't say carnivore and herbivore are opposites, they're just two different things.

That U2 song is Vertigo. Also, he doesn't say "uno" (one), but "unos" (some), adding more weirdness to the counting.

But, according to Bono, there's a simple explanation for the weird count: "there may have been some alcohol involved".

At https://youtu.be/5onUXFV9Vto you can watch Bruce Springsteen's speech inducting U2 into the Rock & Roll hall of fame. The speech starts off making fun of the "14" and is entertaining from beginning to end.

In Latin, 'draco' actually just referred to a snake. It wasn't until the mediaeval period that it really came to mean 'dragons' as we understand them.

I think 'snake' etc. should be accepted.

Good thing you added "starting with gh" to the graverobber question, otherwise you'd have to accept "archaeologist" as an answer... ;-)

I don't think the opposite of carnivore is correct. I think the opposite of carnivore is regurgitator.
