Can you guess where this still pic is taken from?

The Simpsons intro.
The shows creators sometimes vary the length of the intro to adjust the shows running time to suit the allotted time segment.

Here are a couple of “Tom Swifties” for you to guess during a break from poker.

Tom Swifties are bad adverbial puns. :slight_smile: You provide the adverb.
Two examples: “I always go camping,” said Tom intently. “I need a pencil sharpener,” said Tom bluntly.

They all end in “ly”.

  1. “I’ll make my own Ketchup!” announced Tom … (7 letters, starts with s)
  2. “Mary loves modern paintings,” said Tom … (10 letters, starts with a )
  3. “He is my favourite Spanish tenor”, said Tom … (8 letters, starts with p)
  4. “The temperature is increasing day by day,” stated Tom … (6 letters, starts with w)
  5. “I’m freezing,” said Tom … (5 letters, starts with i)
  6. “I wasn’t at school today,” said Tom … (8 letters, starts with a)
