'twas a slightly evil quiz today. One would think that the above would've been sufficient. There wasn't really all that much more to dig out, and believe me, I dug. I dug like a mole with an excavator.
Unfortunately, moles aren't really trained to operate excavators, so that was a slightly futile method....
(Next time I'll ask Shovel Knight to lend me a hand instead.)

#1 Got a bug and lost points :(
#7 Already knew about Argyria and didn't think to just look up blue skin in case there are other fitting conditions o_O Still figured out the right answer though 😎
#8 Didn't think too look up more details since menstruation is already known to be "that time of the month that is really painful". Well, you live and learn. Only this time I learned a bit late 😖

Was considering making a note about this in my previous post, but deleted it.
Here goes anyway....

the 7th hint was evil, thought it was related to alcohol intoxication. Though maybe only someone who knows German will think that.

I'd say H8 was more evil. It alludes to menstruation, of which I can only assume a regular one already does include some pain. (Ain't got no personal experience for reasons I believe are obvious enough since I'm writing this here line to drag out the post, which now starts to seem like it's more for comedic purpose than that of actually writing a serious post......)
It's a bit of a nitpick, but the hint could've been slightly more clear: "that time of the month is UNUSUALLY painful. med term"

To be fair, googling the actual hint does lead to dysmenorrhea first, so it was overconfidence that lead me astray. After all "it obviously hints at periods. Duh! No need for due diligence." :p

About #8...
I didn't even had to look it up since I have a misfortune of dealing with that condition every freaking 4 weeks. And "between us girls" - some ladies have it easy, without pain or with just a bit of it. But when a woman says that it's "really painful" - usually it means that she's ready to die... or to kill someone.

What got me is #4 - for whatever reason I stopped digging after getting to "nullipara" but didn't even think about looking up for never-ever-ever being pregnant. Still could have figured it out because of similarity in the terms but got confused.
Oh well... still got the other 9!
