17. It is a 1500 english term.
When Fornicating was against the law if one was not married. So to speed the court process. One was charged with F.U.C.K.

Fornicating Under Commonwealth Knowledge

In days of old
when knights
were bold
and rubber
weren't invented
they tie a sock
around their cock
and babies
were prevented.

20. "asnalmente"
It is Spanish and I came it across it in Don Quixote where his horse Rocinante is switching personalities with Sancho Panza's ass. Yes, you heard that right!

It means "jackassedly" and maybe describes * to a tee.
